4

It was at least two weeks now since I moved in with the mafia bosses. I really didn't mind since it was like living in a house ran by crazy teenagers. Well we were all crazy in one way of another. For an entire week Geovanni had abandoned the stairs and the railing were his ways of getting down the stairs.

Xavier was on a constant dating spree and every day he had a new date. Cristiano had gone party-mad and for the last few days he wasn't even home as there was always some party or another to attend. I had grown back into being a bookworm. I finally finished the book Xavier had loaned me and I decided to return it. The others were out by this time and I knew he was around.

I rolled off my bed and put my feet in my warm slippers.

Should I go? Nah, he might have girls there now. Ro just go. It's just a book. And if he has a girl in there? Then turn right back and run like there's a tiger behind you! Alright fine! I'll take a chance and go.

I walked out the dorm and down to his room. I heard laughing from in his room.

He's definitely got someone in there.

I hesitated a bit but the knocked softly on the door.

"Come in." I heard him say

I took a deep breath and opened the door. He was lying on his bed laughing at the text messages he was reading. I breathed a sigh of relief.

No girls tonight!

He looked up from his phone screen to look at me.

"I came to return the book I borrowed." I explained

"Enjoyed it?" he asked taking the book from me

"Yeah it was fun." I answered "I didn't know you were the type to like romance novels."

"I'm full of surprises." he winked at me playfully

I giggled. The boys were easy to get along with when they were not busy being mafia bosses. When they were it was best to stay on their good side as they took their jobs seriously. Like the rest of the girls I was assigned a duty at the club and that was to clean several assigned rooms daily.

"Can I get another book?" I asked

Xavier nodded just as hid phone vibrated in his hand. His attention went back to the screen and I turned mine to his book shelf to look for something to read.

Vampires. Werewolfs. Romance. Teen Fiction. Mystery. Thriller. Historical. He's got a lot of books.

Xavier's POV

I looked at Royalty as she looked through my bookshelf for something to read. I knew girls rather shop than read and I found it quite interesting for a girl to be a bookworm. I was feeling something for her but I couldn't put my finger on it. I was slowly starting to enjoy being around her. I got up without making a sound.

I put my hands over her eyes and she laughed and turned to face me. She was really cute when she laughed and she wasn't scared and shy anymore so we saw a lot more of her cool personality.

Geez, her ass looks good from behind.

"What?" she asked smiling at me

"Let's just hang out tonight." I said "It's just the two of us and the others won't be back for ages."

She raised an eyebrow at me and I guess it sounded fishy. I had gone girl-mad for the last week and I had a new date every day.

"I'm not going to touch you Ro." I said "C'mon please."

I pouted and made puppy eyes at her and she laughed.

"Alright." she laughed "What do you want to do tonight that's not perverted and that's not a chance for you to seduce me?"

Wow.....she thinks I would seduce her? Ok I wasn't....ok I was....a little. Change of plans!

"Ahia!" I said holding my chest like if I was shot "That hurt you know. It sounds like you don't trust my friendly offer."

"I don't trust your innocence and you don't trust me with other men." stated as she put her hands n her hips and sassed me

"Aright we're even." I said putting my hands up in surrender "You win."

Royalty's POV

Did I ever tell you that Xavier in surrender is cute and sexy but really funny?

I couldn't help laughing at him as he stepped back and put his hands up in surrender.

"Alright we'll do something just the two of us." I said giving him a dirty look

He looked at me then bit his lip. He looked sexy and seductive.

"Want to have to go at it tonight then?" he asked slyly "You said just the two of us. You could try something new for a change."

I felt something I never felt before with Xavier but I didn't know what it was. I gave him a dirty look and licked my lips.

I could play him right here and right now! Alright give it your best shot.

I took hold of his loose belt. He had his belt loose and it made his pants fall a little showing the white band of his boxers. I pulled him closer and leaned on the bookshelf still giving him a dirty look. He looked at me with interest.

"I knew you wanted it." he said putting his hands down by my waist and holding me in position

He came close to my lips and I pushed him off hard and he fell down on his butt. I laughed.

"I-I k-knew y-you'd f-fall for it." I said still laughing and trying to talk

He looked at me and pouted.

"And I fell for it." he groaned making me laugh more

I held on to my aching side and tears came out my eyes. Xavier looked at me and smiled and shook his head. I loved seeing him smile.

Those perfectly even white teeth!

"That's punishment you know." he said

"Oh really?" I asked him slowly as I leaned against the wall "Put it right in there then."

He looked at me and bit his lip. He gave me one dirty look and I felt my body starting to heat up. He got up off the ground in a split second and took hold of me. He flung me on the bed and I landed on my belly. Before I even had time to turn around he was on top of me, pinning me down but not using his full weight.

How come he's not hard as yet?

Xavier was used to girls so he could allow himself to get turned on or not when he wanted. He gently slapped my ass and I squealed. His touch sent my hormones mad at a cheerleading competition. I wanted more. He must have read my mind because slapped me again.

"I could fuck you right now." he ran his hands down my back

"Don't." I said turning around on my back to face him "No you won't."

"Why not?" he asked as his hands started to trail down the center of my body

"Because....." I said trying to keep still as his hands trailed closer to my closed legs "I don't want to."

"You're mine Royalty." he said and I could hear the possessiveness in his voice which was twisted with his Italian accent. "I could do as I wish right now but I'll let you off. Let's go watch a movie."

I turned and followed him out the door.

That boy they called Xavier!

I went into the kitchen and fished in the cupboard filled of snacks and hot soda until I found the popcorn. I rested the box on the counter and got out a big box and lighted the stove. I put in a chunk of salted butter then stirred it until it had melted. Xavier came down wearing a shirt and four movies in his hand. He turned on the TV and put in one and put it on pause and came into the kitchen.

"What do you want?" I asked putting my hand on my hips and trying not to laugh

"Drink." he said like a seven year old

I rolled my eyes and poured in the popcorn and covered the pot. I put away the box. Xavier took out a big packet of chips and cold sodas from in the fridge.

"You want pizza too?" he asked me taking his cell phone out his pocket

It was a really cool phone which was a top hit in Italy called the Ocean Tidal.

"Xavier are you trying to make me fat?" I asked sarcastically "Popcorn, chips, strawberries, whip cream and soda is enough to make me gain one hundred pounds!"

"Wow! That much food would full me for twenty minutes then I'd be hungry again." he shrugged and I rolled my eyes at him

"Here's what bad boy." I said then whispered the last part in his ear "Save the pizza for a room party the next time we're alone."

He gave me one dirty smirk and I knew the wrong things he was thinking already. We sat down with the food and ate while watching CSI: Miami, Piranha and Journey 2 The Mysterious Island. It was after nine that night when we finished and had just started eating chips and drinking another round of sodas. The popcorn had lasted a good way as I made three rounds of it.

"Now what?" I asked him as I turned off the TV

"Let's play Truth or Dare." he suggested popping a chip into his mouth

Hell no Ro. That game could go wrong and backfire!

"Sure. Why not?" I said turning to face him "T or D?"

"T."

"How many girls have you slept with already?" I asked shyly

He looked at me surprised then smiled.

"Lost count." he said "T or D?"

"T."

"You still a virgin?"

I looked away.

Oh no! Ro he's going to laugh at you.

"Yes." I answered

"What?!" he asked almost choking "A pretty babe like you never rode the rod?"

"No. I've only been in two relationships before." I answered "My first crush cheated on me and I just broke up with Jasper. What age did you lose your v-card?"

"When I was thirteen to my fifth girlfriend." he said with a touch of sadness in his voice "I dated her for three years then we broke up three days before my sixteenth birthday."

"Ouch." I winced "That's got to hurt. I bet you spent your birthday crying or feeling sad."

"Nah, I just threw all my feelings of love and whatever." he said "Love isn't in my dictionary anymore babe."

"What?" I asked spitting out a little of my soda

"I just can't love any girl." he explained "I threw away all feelings of love so I can't love one girl. That's why I womanize. The feeling of loving one is painful and brings back up the memory of that special girl who I gave everything to."

His voice went sad and so did his eyes. I looked at him. It must have been really bad for him to be looking so sad.

"I'm sorry Xavier." I said softly "I didn't mean to bring back up the past."

"Its fine." he said smiling at me "You won't have known."

I smiled back. I felt that familiar warm feeling between us.

What the heck was it?!

"What your favorite thing to eat?" he asked randomly

"Red velvet cake." I answered cheerfully "You?"

"Limoné pie." he said taking a long sip of soda

"What really?" I asked in excitement

"Yeah." he laughed at my excitement "Why so excited bambina?"

"I'm a pro at making that." I answered shyly looking away

"Then make it me for one day." he said turning my head back to look at him

Hell no!

"S-Sure." I smiled "Let's watch a cooking show or something while we eat."

"Oh really?" he asked slyly

I looked at him and rolled my eyes. Only Xavier would think any normal sentence wrong. I flicked through the channels until I found a decent cooking show. The lady, whose name was Althea, was cooking an Italian dish and I looked on in interest.

"What's that?" I asked Xavier

"Chicken Marsala." he answered

"Oh." I said then went back to watching the show

"If you be good bambina I'll take you out one day so you can eat Italian style." Xavier said smiling at me

"What really?!" I asked in excitement

"Only if you be good." Xavier said sternly "Only then I'll take the chance and take you out."

"I'll be good." I said raising my right hand like I was taking a pledge "I promise."

"We'll see mia signora." Xavier said laughing at my childish behavior

I got up to pick up all the empty stuff we had lying around when I felt Xavier cup my butt and massaged it then playfully slapped it. I squealed and turned around rubbing it.

"Your butt's real soft." he said turning me around and cupping it again "A really good pillow if you ask me."

"Xavier stand up." I said and he raised an eyebrow then stood up

Before he could ask why, I reached behind him and slapped his very sexy ass! He looked at me.

"You've got five seconds to run or you'll regret hitting back your master." he said then held up five fingers "1...2..."

I was gone by the time he reached three. I flew down the corridor and into the dorm. The girls looked at me in surprise but I ignored then and flew into my room and into my closet hoping he won't find me there. I then heard him talking to the girl outside who I knew were probably drooling over him. I heard him opening and closing doors and I put my hand over my mouth to stop from laughing. I heard his footsteps coming towards my room and I quietly opened a small closet.

The closets were smaller but huge enough so I could stand without difficulty. I pushed aside some dresses Aria had given me and stepped in. I them put them back into place and stood still. I heard my bedroom door open and my heart started pounding. I heard him open my bathroom then he came towards the closet and flung it open. He walked in and I stopped breathing as I saw his shadow pass by.

"You can run Royalty, but you can't hide from me!" he said

Then I saw his shadow stop in front the closet I was in and the door opened slowly. I drew back hardly daring to breathe. His hand reached through the clothes and hooked the hem of my pants and he pulled me out.

How on earth did he know where to put his hand?

He pulled me out and pulled me onto his firm muscular chest. He shifted me to a side where his heart was. With his free hand he flipped through my clothes.

"Are these your style?" I asked looking down at me

"I wear what I've got." I answered "I can't go out remember?"

"Yeah I remember." he said turning his attention back to my dresses "When you go out, get something else to wear. I could tell this isn't your style. We didn't know what you like so we just bought whatever but I bet you're uncomfortable with a few of these."

"Not really." I said looking down

How did he know?

It's true. Some of those clothes are too much for me. My style is outsider like and many of the kids at school tried to try my style but it never worked. I just wear whatever I want and it's unusual but cool.

"Don't lie Anza." Xavier slyly said pulling something from inside my closet "How did this get here?"

It's was a white revealing lingerie! It's got to be Aria! That cheeky chic!

She left that there for a special occasion but Xav found it. I turned away from him.

"You're model material." he said "Model it for me."

"What?!" I asked in surprise "Hell no am I wearing that!"

"You should know that talking back to a boss is unacceptable." Xavier raised an eyebrow "Don't argue. My room. Ten minutes."

He handed me then lingerie and then left.

Oh great. Now I've got to model a lingerie for Xavier!
