~ Massimo's POV ~

I woke up by the feeling of Jasmine pulling on the blanket and said " Stop hogging the fucking blanket! "

I looked at her and said " I'm not hogg- "

" Yes, you are. I'm fucking cold. "

" If you're cold, come here so I can keep you warm. "

I felt her move, she cupped my face with her hands, kissed my lips, and I kissed her back. She pulled away from the kiss, rest her head on my chest, I wrapped my arms around her, kissed her hair, and we fell back to sleep.

8:40 am

~ Jasmine's POV ~

I woke up, let out a groan, hold onto my stomach, turned to look at Massimo, he is sleeping. I felt my eyes start to water and cried a little due to the pain.

Fuck, this hurts so much. I can't get out of bed.

I turned around, my back is facing him, hold onto the pillow, and cried into it. I felt Massimo wrapped his arm around me, kissed my hair and said " What's wrong bellissima? "

I turned around to look at him and said " Everything hurts. "

~ Massimo's POV ~

I wiped her tears, kissed her forehead, pulled away, looked at her, she cried on my chest, I rubbed her back with my right hand and checked my phone.

I looked at the date and remember the last time Jasmine had her period.

I kissed her hair, pulled away and said " Do you want me to heat you up a hot water bottle? "

" Yes, but I wanna cuddle first. "

" Okay. "

~ Jasmine's POV ~

Once I calmed down, we got off the bed, he cupped my face with his hands, kissed my forehead, pulled away, looked at me and said " I'll go heat up your hot water bottle, okay? "

" Okay. "

He walked out of my bedroom, I do my routine and walked out of my bathroom wearing comfy clothes.

I grabbed my phone, walked out of my bedroom to the kitchen and I said " Good morning. "

Alessia and my Mom looked at me and said " Good morning. "

Mom looked at my necklace and said " Wow, that's a beautiful necklace. "

I smiled at her and said " Thank you, Massimo gave it to me yesterday on our date. "

" How was your date? "

" It was good, I had a great time. He asked me to be his girlfriend. "

" Does he treat you good? "

" Yes he does. He makes me so happy. "

She smiled at me and said " That's great mija. You deserve to be happy. Here you go, drink your tea. The water for your hot water bottle is heating up. "

I nod my head, Mom set down my tea that I always drink whenever I'm on my period, I took a sip out of my tea and heard " Good morning. "

I turned around, saw Massimo, " Good morning. " We said to him.

He walked over to me and said " Good morning bellissima. "

" Good morning amore. "

He kissed my lips, I kissed him back, he pulled away from the kiss and my Mom said " The food is ready, let's eat. "

" Okay. "

I got off the chair, grabbed my mug, we walked to the dining room, everyone came and sat down. I said good morning to everyone and sat down.

I took a sip out of my tea, my Mom sat down and we begin to eat. " What are you drinking? " Aurora said.

" Camomile tea. "

" That shits nasty. " Dante said.

I looked at him and said " Did I ask you? "

" Jasmine. " My Mom said.

I looked at her and said " What? "

" Be nice. "

Dante smirked at me and said " Yeah, Jasmine. Be nice. "

" Oh go fuck yourself. " I mumbled and drank my tea.

I am here laying down in my bed watching a movie, Massimo walked in the room holding a bag of my snacks and the hot water bottle. He gave me my stuff, I thanked him and put the hot water bottle on my lower stomach.

He lay down on my bed, I grabbed a chocolate bar, begin to eat it, Massimo opened his laptop, and begin to do his work. His phone rang, he took it out of his sweatpants, and answered the call in Italian.

I offered him some of my chocolate, he looked at it and shooked his head. " Get some. " I mouthed.

He should be lucky that I'm offering him some of my chocolate. I never offer anyone anything.

He took a bite out of my chocolate, I gave him a kiss on his cheek, and pulled away. Looked at the movie, ate my chocolate, once I finished eating my chocolate, I took a sip out of my water.

Massimo finished with his call, I looked at him and said " I'll be right back, I'm going to use the bathroom. "

" Okay. "

I got off the bed, walked over to the bathroom, turned on the light, closed the door behind me and screamed once I saw a spider on the wall.

~ Massimo's POV ~

I heard Jasmine screaming from the bathroom, I quickly set my laptop to the side, and got off the bed. Grabbed my gun that I hid in her room, walked over to the bathroom, knocked on the door and said " Bellissima, are you okay? "

She didn't answer, I knocked on the door again and and " Bellissima, open the door. "

" KILL IT! KILL IT! "

" Open the door. "

" KILL IT! "

I bang the door and yelled " Kill what?! Open the door. "

She opened the door, I saw her standing on the counter, and I said in confusion " What are you doing up there? "

She point to the wall and said " Kill it. "

I looked at the wall, saw a fucking spider, put my gun in my sweatpants before she see it, looked at her and said " You're scared of a spider? It's not going to do anything to you. "

" Kill it! "

" Get down from there. "

" No! I'm not getting out until that spider is gone. "

The spider moved, she screamed, I chuckled, she looked at me, threw me her make up brush and said " It's not fucking funny. Kill it! "

" Okay, okay. " I walked over to the spider and smacked it with my hand hard, showed her my hand and said " There it's gone. "

She burst out in tears, I looked at her in confusion and she said " You killed it! "

" You told me to. "

" You killed that poor innocent spider. " She bring her hands to her face and sob.

I let out a sigh and said " Get down from there, come on. "

She moved her hands away from her face, wiped her tears and said " No, I'm scared. "

" Of what? "

" What if there's more of them? "

" There's no more. "

" How can you be so sure? What if they're hiding? "

" Bellissima, there's no more spiders. "

" Can you check? "

You can't be serious... She wants me to look around the bathroom for more spiders?

" There's no spiders, there's just one which I just killed. "

She shooked her head and said " I'm not getting out until you check. "

I let out another sigh and said " Fine. "

The things I do for you..

I walked around the bathroom, looked for some spiders which I know there's no more, I looked at her and said " There's no more. "

" Are you sure? "

" Yes. "

" Are you positive? "

" Yes bellissima, I'm positive. Now lets get you down. "

I put her down, she quickly wrapped her arms around me and said " Thank you, I thought I was gonna get eaten by the spider. "

I hugged her back and said " It's not going to do anything to you. "

" Now get out, I need to use the bathroom. "

" I killed the spider for you and this is what I get? "

She cupped my face with her hands, kissed my lips, I kissed her back, wrapped my arms around her waist, she pulled away from the kiss, looked at me and said " I need to use the bathroom, get out. "

" Okay. " I walked out of the bathroom.

Vincenzo and Ximena walked in the room, looked at me and Vincenzo said " What was Jasmine screaming about? "

" She saw a spider in the bathroom and want me to kill it and look around for more. "

" She did all of that over a spider? " Vincenzo said.

Ximena shooked her head and said " I can't blame her, I'm terrified of spiders. "

" Dante has a pet tarantula. "

" He has a what? " Jasmine and Ximena said.

" A pet tarantula. "

" Where is it? " Jasmine said.

" In his room. " I said.

Jasmine shivered and said " That's scary. "

" Hey guys. " Dante said with his pet tarantula on his shoulder.

Ximena walked over to Jasmine's bookshelf pretend to look through them while Jasmine is hiding behind me.

Dante walked over to her and said " Oh come on, don't tell me you're scared of spiders? "

" Get it out Dante! " She screamed.

Luciano looked at Dante and said " Go Dante. "

" How can you be scared? He's harmless. "

" Yeah, but he can bite. " Ximena said.

" It doesn't hurt that bad. "

" He bites?! "

" Only the ones he doesn't like. "

" Go Dante. " I said.

" I'm going, I'm going. " He walked away.

" Is he gone? " Jasmine said.

" Yes. "

She walked over to her bed and take a sip out of her water, Ximena let out a sigh with relief, Luciano looked at me and said " We have a meeting to go. "

I nod my head, looked at Jasmine and said " I'll be right back. "

" Can you bring me some food when you get back? "

" What do you want? "

She walked over to me, told me what she wants, I nod my head and said " Okay. "

I quickly gave her a kiss, she kissed me back, I pulled away from the kiss and she said " Be safe. "

" I will. "

She looked at Luciano and said " Be safe Luciano. "

He nod his head and said " I will. "

~ Jasmine's POV ~

They walked out of my room leaving me and my Mom alone, I let out a groan, walked over to my bed and set the hot water bottle on my lower stomach. My Mom sat down on my bed, looked at me and said " Wanna facetime everyone? "

I nod my head and said " Sure. "

**

I am here walking in the garden, I am listening to music through my airpods, I found the swinging chair, sat down and go into deep thought.

~ Massimo's POV ~

I just got home, I have Jasmine's food, saw Ximena and she said " Jasmine is by the garden. "

" Thank you. "

I walked to the garden, saw Jasmine sitting down on the swinging chair listening to music, I walked over to her and said " Bellissima? "

She looked at me, smiled and said " Hi amore. "

" What are you doing here all alone? "

" I just wanted to be alone for a while. I'm a little sad. "

I sat down on a chair, looked at her and said " What's wrong? "

" I talked to my step Dad and siblings with my Mom. I found out that my step brother is getting married in two months. "

" Really? That's great. "

" Yeah, I want to go but- "

" When is the wedding? "

" January 20. "

~ Jasmine's POV ~

He nod his head and said " We'll go. "

I smiled at him and said " Really? "

" Of course. "

" That's great and you can meet my family. "

" I would love to meet them. Come on, let's go inside. I brought your food, eat it before it gets cold. "

I nod my head and said " Okay. "

We got off the chairs, walked inside the house, Massimo grabbed the bag, I looked at him and said " Let's go watch a movie in my room. "

" Let's go. "

We walked over to my room, we lay down on the bed, I played a movie and we begin to eat the food, I looked at him and said " This is really good. "

" I knew you would like it. "

**

We are done eating our food, I cuddled him, he kissed my hair, I looked at him and said " How was your meeting? "

" It was good. "

I kissed him, he kissed me back, I cupped his face with my right hand, and deepened the kiss. He pulled me close to him, I pulled away from the kiss, rest my head on his chest, let out a yawn, he rubbed my back and said " Go take a nap bellissima. "

" I'm not sleepy yet. "

" Okay. "

~ Massimo's POV ~

I was talking to Jasmine, I didn't hear her respond so I grabbed my phone from the nightstand, unlocked it, go to my camera on selfie mode and put the phone in front of her.

She is sleeping, I took a picture of her, I put my phone back on the nightstand, turned off the tv, kissed Jasmine's hair and go to sleep.
