A loud crash is heard all through the house and then everything goes silent for few seconds before a scream follows.

"I am not going to marry anyone" Alana loud scream awakens the silent night.

"Alana, get back in here" her mother shouts as she follows the girl.

"You and dad cannot just up and decide about me and my life. I am not getting married, this is not some eighteenth century historical fiction story...

I am well damn capable to decide who I want to have sex with" she shouts storming out of the house while her mother turn red in embarrassment.

"Wrong timing" Richie chuckles as het gets up from the chair along with his parents and his chuckle stops Alana's steps as she turns back at one on her heels glaring at the man.

"Alana meet Richie Russo your fiancé" her father sighs knowing well about all of his daughter's attitudes and tantrums.

"Not if he knows I am a lesbian" Alana states.

"Stop it" her father warns her.

"I am not marrying him" she announces before she storms out of the house.

"Excuse me" Richie smiles as he follows Alana out of the house.

"Alana" he calls the woman's name who ignores his call as she waits for her car to arrive.

Just as the car stops she hurries to get in and away from the man but unfortunately he too gets in the car annoying her even more.

"What is the meaning of this?" she shouts at him but all he does is smile as he touches the button at the side of the car wanting some privacy.

*******

"Let's talk" Richie starts as he turns to face the girl.

"There is nothing to talk, I am not going to marry you"

"Why? Because you are a lesbian, I do not mind some girl on girl action" he teases her.

"Why do you want to marry me?" she asks instead and he just sighs.

"You know why men wants to marry you" he replies.

"No I do not, I do not find any amusement in being a wife to a man I barely know especially if they are so rude to get in my car uninvited"

"Then invite me in your life"

"You are very annoying and persistent"

"That is what we Russo's are famous for. We do not give up easily once we set our eyes and mind on something or someone"

"I know you are marrying me for all the wrong reasons, you want my father's property and his links but I do not have any desire to a marry you or any men in that context"

"Who hurt you so badly Alana?" he asks.

"Excuse me" she gasps offended.

"No you are not, who is he? Who is the bastard who turned you into a lesbian?" Richie asks teasingly.

"There is no one, why do men think if a woman is not ready to settle down there is always a man behind it all...

How about I want to be left alone and enjoy my life the freedom"

"If it's the freedom you will get it, nothing will change"

"Hah! And babies are made from a bee bite" she scoffs.

"We will come to the baby part later on but for now I want you to say yes to this marriage proposal"

"Richie, why do you want to marry me?"

"Because I have lost all the right reasons not to" he states and Alana stays quiet.

*******

"Alana" Richie smiles as he greets the girl.

"Mr. Wrong" she smiles before sipping on her drink.

"A dance" he asks her.

"My friend here will love to" she smiles before turning away from him.

"Alana" Richie groans as he follows her at the party.

"Stop following me"

"Stop walking away" he growls in annoyance.

"I do not want to have any kind of acquaintances with you" she states as she stops walking and turns to face him.

"A Dance" he grits through his teeth.

"If you insist" she growls before taking his hand and making their way towards the floor.

"What is so wrong in marrying me?" he asks her.

"I do not see any right"

"I am not so bad looking and I am not poor, all the luxuries you ever desire will be yours"

"Physical luxuries are not something I desire as they will be fulfilled even if I do not marry you"

"Then what do you desire" he asks pulling her closer to him.

"To be left alone" she pushes his wandering hand away from her face as she steps in his foot making his close his eyes in pain.

*******

"Until when are you going to make me follow you?" Richie asks as he follows Alana out of the party.

"Until you stop doing so" she replies before halting as he grabs her wrist pulling her close to his chest.

"Give in"

"Give up" she fires back.

"No one will marry you knowing what your father does" he states.

"And I am glad at what he does"

"Why are you so against this marriage?"

"Because I do not like being told off to do what"

"I will never dare do so" he grins as he lets go of her wrist.

"You get my father's money and power by marrying me but what do I get in return?" she questions stepping away from him.

"You get your life, you think your father will not make you marry someone else if I stopped persuading you? You think you will get to do as you wish if you marry someone else that is not me?" he asks which makes her think on it.

"And I will believe you will keep your words, why?"

"Because it's a Russo words, we live by it and never go against our given words" he smiles.

*******

"You look beautiful when you smile" Richie whispers in Alana's ears before he smiles at the guest making their way.

"Congratulations Russo" Leon Lucero shakes Richie's hand before he nods towards Alana who smiles back.

"I said the wedding should be small" she hisses as soon as the guest walks away.

"You are your father's only daughter Alana, let the man do as he wishes"

"Well in that case you don't use you are my only wife Alana card with me" she warns as she picks up her drink and gulps it down.

Alana narrows her eyes at her husband as he just smiles in answer but before she could protest or say something their next guests interrupts them.

*******

"I am bumped" Alana sighs as she lies on the bed while Richie pulls off his coat and tie.

"Well at least we do not have to go through that again" Richie announces as he sits on the chair and starts to pull his shoes off.

"What about your side of the family?" she asks as she turns to face him.

"What about them?" he shrugs his shoulders.

"Won't we have a party for them?" she asks him.

"No, I did promised to not give you a big wedding party so" he smiles making her frown.

"You are one infuriating man Richie Russo" she yawns as she climbs on the bed and closes her eyes.

"Are you not going to change?" he asks staring at her going to sleep on her wedding dress.

"If you are waiting for some sexy lingerie moment from me, just watch some porn instead" she comments closing her eyes.

"And you are one funny woman" he chuckles as he picks up his shoes and starts to walks out.

"Where are you going?" she asks as she gets up.

"To sleep"

"Where?" she questions.

"Couch" he replies as he raises a brow her way.

"I will not jump on you in the middle of the night Russo, don't be too dramatic and just get in the bed" she rolls her eyes as she lies down once again.

"So you mean I am welcomed in your bed?" he smirks as he drops the shoes.

"I am the one who is welcomed in your bed Russo and stop dreaming because I may sleep next to you but I am not sleeping with you" she warns.

"What's the difference?" he asks as he gets in the bed.

"The part where we are on the bed, naked doing the things our parents did to conceive us" she explains.

"Well at some point we may want it"

"Well, then it better be your best performance so I do not regret conceiving your child"

"Our" he clarifies and she turns towards his side.

"So confident Mr. Russo, you did gave me your words I will never lose my freedom as your wife which means I may hook up with someone else and you cannot say a word"

"I will not, by gun will" he grins as he moves at once and kiss on her lips startling her.

"What..."

"Goodnight Mrs. Russo"

Alana opens and closes her mouth as she is speechless for the first time after they met.

*******

"What's the time?" Alana asks as she wakes up stretching her body.

"Good afternoon" Richie smiles as he puts the files in the suitcase.

"Ugh, it's too early" she groans before falling back on the bed.

"Get some food first and sleep" he asks before she gets up and looks around the room.

"Food?" she asks looking around for it.

"In the kitchen, you missed breakfast"

"Why did you not wake me up?" she accuses him as she gets out of the bed.

"I thought you said no sexy..." Richie starts but stops as she gets out of her wedding dress and his eyes lands on her garter.

"Close your eyes" she rolls her eyes as she walks half naked.

"That was not part of any deals we made"

"Food" she orders as she search for her clothes and he just chuckles making his way out.

"Come find me then" he states making her hiss his way.

*******

"Eggs, I need more eggs" she demands tapping on his hand.

"There are other items on the table"

"But no eggs" she points out making him sigh.

"The maids will not be here for few more days"

"Why?" she asks as he passes his plate to her.

"Is it not obvious?" he asks staring at her.

"No" she shakes her head pushing out green vegetables away before she looks up to find him staring at her and she sighs.

"Just tell them I am not having sex with you" she states making him sigh as he gets up.

"I have a meeting, will you be okay alone?" he asks and she frowns.

"If you make me one last egg"

"Can you not?" he asks checking on the time.

"How dare you ask me such insulting question? Of course I do not know! I am not some fictional character to know it magically...

I am a girl, who know many of things but not cooking. I draw a line on that! Just because I am a girl do not expect me..."

"Your egg is ready" Richie sighs as he puts a hot egg on the table and she grins.

"See this is why I never tried to cook, oh the perks of never having to cook" she claps her hands while Richie just sighs putting his coat.

"What will happen when I am not home?"

"If every person in this planet knows how to cook who will enjoy Mc Donald's, KFC? Who will save the lives of the men and women working in there?

How will they get paid? How can you even think like that? I cannot believe I married a man who..."

"Okay, okay I am out of here" Richie laughs as he hurries out of the house before his wife makes him crazy.

*******

"What are you doing?" Richie's voice startles Alana who jumps in fright as she turns to face him.

"Spying on you"

"Did you get anything useful?" he asks as he puts his suitcase down.

"Except few dusts and spider webs nothing of importance"

"Hmm"

"What did you do whole day?" he asks as he pulls out some papers from his suitcase.

"Tried to find some hidden rooms"

"Did you get one?" he asks amused.

"All I got was boredom in return you should at least have some secret chambers, life would have been so interesting then"

"There are secret chambers though" he states and she hurries to his side.

"Take me there immediately" she demands holding his hands and pulling him out of the room.

"What is this?" Alana asks as she stares in front of her.

"You did say you wanted secret chambers and we all know Harry potter and the secrets of chambers" he grins as he plays the movie.

"While you enjoy this I will go work, okay?" he asks and Alana slowly turns her head to face him, with revenge written all over her face for the joke he made.

"That's twice you made me speechless" she warns him as she takes the remote out of his hand.

"Just be glad I enjoy Harry much more than I do you, now" she grits through her teeth as she sits down on the couch.

"Some popcorn and drinks will do wonders to my murderous head" she adds as he turns to walk out.

P.S. Alana and Richie are parents of Ricardo Russo AKA Rare to those who have any confusion, and this is their story.
