The next morning I woke up only to find Pavi sleeping beside me with what seemed to me like a smile on his lips. I smiled and tried to pull myself up a bit. I saw then that his right arm was wrapped around my waist. I took it carefully, not wanting to wake him up and pushed it aside. He let a little whimper out and turned over. I smiled and got out of the bed.
After five minutes I returned with breakfast and a big, red rose. I let the rose on my pillow next to him. He turned his head and slowly opened his eyes and smiled when he saw the rose.
"Buon giorno, amore mio!" I whispered giggling and leaving a wet kiss on his lips.
He moaned a bit. "Buon giorno, bella!" He smiled and sniffled. "Mm, what's that-a?" He asked licking his lips.
"Fresh breakfast. Croissants, coffee, juice, pancakes and fresh-baked bread with butter." I grinned.
"God, you-a drive me crazy!" He said taking the tray and resting it on his lap...
About half an hour passed and we got out of bed, having eaten our breakfast. I opened the door carefully and looked outside.
"Okay, bello. All clear." I warned him and he quickly got out of the room and kissed me before practically running off to his own room.
He opened his door and blew me a kiss. I giggled and we both closed our bedroom doors. I was going to go with Uncle at GeneCo that day and so I got ready. I decended the stairs and found him waiting in the living room.
"How weird..." He said, shaking his head. "Half the family had breakfast in their bedrooms today."
I gaspsed sligtly but he didn't noticed it. "What do you mean, Uncle?"
"What do I mean, you, Pavi and Amber took breakfasts in bed today, right? John, the butler told me so."
"Did John tell you anything else?" John was so good in telling everyone about things that were non of his business. I just hoped he didn't tell my Uncle that Pavi was in my bed, if he had found out about it...
"No, darling, he just told me that you, Pavi and Amber had breakfasts in your beds today... Should he tell me anything else?" He looked at me as if I was hiding something. Well... I did but...
"No! Of course not..." I lied. "So, I'm ready for GeneCo. What do we have today?" I faked a smile.
"You'll see when we get there. We don't have a lot of work today, cara mia. We'll be back in the afternoon, hopefully." He smiled.
We came back after eight hours of working, looking up repossessions, new people that needed organs and signing some papers. When we returned Pavi came running down the stairs and I gestured him not to say or do anything. He immediately saw Uncle next to me and stopped running and he just decended the stairs normally.
"Oh-a... You have returned-a." He said, pretending that he didn't care that much.
"We did, son." Uncle replied. "And it would be nice if you would come along too sometimes. You kids say that you want the company but do you do anything to learn how it works? No! You just expect me to do all the paperwork and all..." He continued mumbling and Pavi came next to me, seeing that Uncle had turned away to get something from one of his envelopes, still talking about how his kids were so lazy and worthless.
Pavi searched for something inside his sleeve and after some seconds he took a little piece of paper out of it and threw it down in front of my feet. I looked at my Uncle to make sure he wasn't looking and picked the piece of paper up quickly.
"Put it-a in your sleeve and read-a it in your room-a." Pavi whispered and winked before leaving.
After some minutes I made to leave too, leaving my Uncle there, mumbling about our whole family now, even about our ancestors... I went up to my room and closed the door behind me. I sat up on my bed and stroked the blankets, remembering our last night. I reached for my left sleeve then and took the piece of paper out to read it. My cheeks flushed and my lips turned into a grin when I read the words:
''Meet me tonight at the park near Sanitarium Square at 10:00. My limousine will be outside at 9:30 pm. to collect you. I'll be waiting, bella!
Many kisses,
The Pavi!''
