Ariana's POV:
I heard the chair being dragged and someone sat on it. I looked to my right and what I saw made me completely stunned. I saw the most handsome boy I have ever seen. He is so beautiful. He has light blue eyes, black hair, chiseled jaw, perfect tan on his body and everything is perfect. I don't think I have ever seen anyone this handsome. He is hot.
I was staring at him constantly when he turned to me and snapped his fingers in front of me.
"Done staring?" He asked me, arching his perfectly shaped eyebrows. I came out of my trance and hurriedly replied.
"I wasn't." He shook his head. "You were." He smirked.
"Ok, ok. I was. Because I hadn't seen you here before." "Oh that's because I am new here." I nodded.
"So, I am Ariana Romano. Nice to meet you." I said, forwarding my hand to him. He took it and shook my hand and said, "I am Elijah Wood. Nice to meet you too Ariana."
I smiled a little and then our teacher came and I focused back on the class.
Time skip...
Our classes ended and I am going back to our home with Matteo in the car. "So how was your day?" Twinnie asked me. "It was good. I met a boy in our Italian class. He is new."
He narrowed his eyes on me. "What boy? What is his name?"
"His name is Elijah Wood." "And why were you talking to him?" He asked. I rolled my eyes irritated by him.
"Why can't I talk with anyone?" I raised my eyebrow asking him. "No. No. It's not like that. I mean why were you talking with any random boy? He can be a pervert for we know. Or a bad influence."
I glared at him. "Are you serious?"
He glanced at me and understood that now I am getting annoyed by him so he took a deep breath and said calmly, "ok. I am sorry. I shouldn't have reacted that way. But try to understand my point twinnie."
"Ok. I understand. But he was new and he sat beside my chair so we introduced each other. Nothing more happened. Besides, he doesn't look like a pervert or something like that."
He nodded. "Ok I trust you." Then we reached our home. I saw that there was no one in the living room. Some have gone for their work and the rest of them are resting.
We went to our room and then after freshening up I completed my homework. After that I went to the living room and saw that most of them were there sitting and chatting.
I went and joined them. "Good evening everyone. What are you talking about?"
"Hey princess. We were just talking about you." Nonno said.
"Me? What about me?" I was intrigued.
"Oh just that we should go somewhere together. It will be so much fun as we have met you after so much time. It will be great to spend time together." Aldo fratello explained to me. I nodded. It was a great idea. It will be a great way to bond together.
"How about a vacation for some days together? We all can decide the place together." I asked as it would be great if we went somewhere for vacation.
All of them were surprised by my idea and happy also. "Yes princess, it is a good idea." Elio fratello said to me.
"But we can't go anywhere for more than 5 days. As we have to go back to Italy also." Zio said. All of us nodded understandingly.
"Ok then we should discuss it when everyone is present here and decide where to go." Twinnie said. We all nodded as there weren't everyone present here. Leo fratello, Tony fratello and others weren't here yet from their work.
We sat there chatting about random things. When all of them arrived from their work.
"Hello everyone. How was your day today?" I asked them and gave them water to drink. They smiled at me gratefully.
"It was good but tiring." Tony fratello said. I smiled softly at him.
"Go and freshen up first then we will eat dinner together. Okay?" Zia said to them and they nodded and went back to their room to freshen up.
We went to the dining room and set the table. We have servants but we still like to work ourselves. After setting up the table we called all of them to come and have dinner.
We all settled down on the table and started having our dinner. It was a classic Italian dinner. We ate with relish and while chatting.
After dinner we went to the living room and settled down there with our desserts. After sitting down we brought up the topic of the trip.
"So we were thinking that we should go on a trip as all of our family members are here. It will be really relaxing and enjoyable too. It will help us to relax in our daily lives." Nonna said to them and all of them agreed.
"So where do you want to go princess?" Papa asked me. "Umm... I think Los Angeles." Papa nodded and looked at everyone. Everyone else also nodded.
"Ok then we will go to Los Angeles for 4 days as it will give them a day to pack and relax. What do you say?" Everyone agreed.
"I will call and ask Evan also if he and his wife want to come." I smiled at papa. He is always so thoughtful of my feelings. He knows that I miss them.
He called them and they also agreed to come with us.
"Ok then we will go tomorrow. Now go and pack everyone." Leo fratello said. We nodded excitedly and went to pack our bags. I packed everything necessary. Then I went to sleep.
I am so excited for tomorrow.
Morning:
I got up and got ready for our trip.
I went downstairs with my luggage. I saw that everyone was ready and waiting with their luggage. My parents were also here.
"Good morning everyone." " Good morning princess." I gave all of them a hug.
Then our staff placed our bags in the car. We then went to the airport where our private jet was waiting for us.
We boarded our jet and reached there by noon. "I am so excited." Twinnie and I said together. We looked at each other and burst out laughing. It is becoming a habit to say things together.
Papa shook his head with a smile on his face. "Ok. Let's go. We will first go to our rooms and then meet here for lunch. Are you all okay with it?" Tony fratello asked. We all nodded.
We then went to the reception of the hotel where we will be staying.
"Antonio Romano. I booked the rooms under my name." He told the receptionist. The receptionist looked at him with a flirty smile. Trying her best to act seductive. I looked at twinnie and saw that he was also looking at me and we both had the same expression of disgust.
We shook our heads and went to the reception.
"Of course sir. I will look into it immediately." She tried to speak with a flirty tone but it came out as if the chalk was being rubbed on the board. We shivered. Tony fratello frowned but didn't say anything. He nodded and waited patiently.
"Ok sir. We have the keys for your room. Here." She gave the keys to him and we saw that she tried to slip him a note with her number written on it. She gave him a sly smile and said, "If you need anything please call me." We winced together.
"Nope. He will not need it. Fratello let's go." I said taking the keys and walking back to everyone. Leo fratello was smirking at Tony fratello.
"So.." Leo fratello started. "shut up." Tony fratello snapped at him.
We chuckled and went to our rooms. It was a very beautiful hotel and its rooms were also gorgeous. The room has a floor to ceiling window and a bathroom attached where there was a bathtub also.
All in all it was a very beautiful room. I was in love with it.
I went to the washroom with my clothes and freshened up. I went downstairs in the corridor to meet my family members. I waited for some time and they all came down.
We then went to have our lunch. We went to the restaurant in the hotel. It was a good restaurant. We placed our orders and had our lunch. The food was good here.
"So what will we do now?" I asked, looking at my watch. It was 3 p.m. now.
"How about a quick nap and then meet here at 5 to explore the night life out there?" Nonna said. I nodded. We went to our room for a nap. It was very much needed as we all were tired due to the flight.
Time skip...
I was ready and waiting for everyone. I saw a familiar figure there and was shocked to see him here.
"Hey! Elijah. What a great surprise. You are here also." I said to him. He turned around after hearing my voice and gave me a small smile displaying his dimples that I like so much. Sigh!
Why God couldn't you have given me dimples?
"Hey Ariana. Yeah what a surprise. I am here with my family to spend some time together."
"I am also here with my family." We have a four day vacation in our school. So I think he also came here with his family to spend some time together.
He nodded, giving me a smile. I saw that my family members were coming towards us so I waved him bye and went to them.
"Hey let's go. I want to explore the place." I said excitedly.
Ben fratello chuckled at my enthusiasm. We went outside and visited the market here. We went to the mall and explored the shops.
Zia, mom and nonna took me with them and went to the ladies section. They got me almost everything. From jeans to tops to dresses, shorts, night suits and everything that a girl can need.
"Nonna, zia, I don't need more clothes. I have enough already." I insisted. "But we are buying for you for the first time. Let us spoil you and you can't deny us." Nonna said, giving me a fake glare.
I mockingly surrendered my hands to them. I can't win with them. We continued buying stuff for all of them. We bought shirts, t-shirts and jeans for my brothers, cousins, zio, nonno dad and papa.
I bought some stuff for nonna, mom and zia also. I bought some purses and handbags for them. Perfumes and all of the stuff.
We moved towards the lingerie section and went to the Victoria Secret to buy some. I bought 2 sets of lingerie and night suits from there. Then we went to the game section and played some games.
We had a blast there with all of my brothers and cousins. It felt like only we were there because of our large group.
Then we went to the food court and ate there. After all of the fun activities we came back to our hotel rooms, hands filled with shopping bags.
We went to the rooms and went to sleep after bidding goodnight.
