Saige’s Pov:
The passed few days I have spent with Kaden at the Greenwood house has been amazing, it almost feels as I’m living in a fantasy.
Every morning we wake up together. I always take a shower while Kaden goes downstairs to cook us a lavish breakfast.
We’ve managed to ride to and from school every day without getting caught by anyone, but I still worry that we can only keep this up for so long until someone catches on.
Kaden made sure to tell Kambrie I was with him so she wouldn’t question it much, but he made sure to leave out our whereabouts.
“Kaden, I’m running out of clothes to wear we need to stop by the house so I can get what I need” I pout like a child.
“Fine, but you have to make it quick we can’t stay in this town for too long without getting caught” he says in a serious tone.
I nod my head in agreement and once we arrive at the beach house, I quickly run up to my room basically taking my whole wardrobe with me since I don’t have time to pick through what I need.
I ran back outside jumping in the car and throwing my bags in the backseat.
“My god it’s just three more days you didn’t need everything you own Saige” Kaden says with a playful laugh.
“Well instead of packing every other week I’m just going to leave some clothes at the Greenwood house so we can just leave and go without worry” I explain to him trying to make sense of why I brought so much.
A smile spreads across his face and I can only conclude that it’s because he’s looking forward to spending a week with me every other week.
But my mind can’t help but wonder for how long we will do this. I mean don’t get me wrong, I love the Greenwood house but it’s so far and I do miss hanging out with Gio and Kambrie.
From the beach house it takes about an hour to get to the Greenwood house, by the time we finally make it there I’m exhausted.
I grab some of my stuff leaving Kaden to grab the rest and I walk inside up to our and start finding a spot for all my belongings.
Kaden brings the rest of the stuff up and sits it on the floor, I go through the rest of my stuff making sure everything is organized.
“I want to take you out tonight” Kaden says from behind me as he walks closer to me placing his palms on each side of my face.
“Are you sure, what if someone sees us?” I ask overthinking that chance of ruining our deal early.
“Greenwood is a town of maybe 376 people who hardly ever leave, I promise it will be fine, and to be extra careful we won’t use our real names” he says with a soft smile.
“Fine. I’ll think up of a name” I say giving in
“No, I already have one picked out for you… Bella” he says with an evil smirk on his face.
“Seriously my middle name that you know I HATE” I groan in agony.
“Okay, so you want to play that game. Your new name will be Grayson then” I smirk knowing he hates his middle name as much as I hate mine
“you’re just evil Bella but get ready we’re leaving in an hour” he says playfully.
I get up and take a shower, curl my hair and then slip on a red satin dress that stops at my mid-thigh. I matched the dress with some black heels, and I put on a diamond necklace as well as earrings and a bracelet.
I can’t even fathom what Kaden’s reaction will be, I’ve never really got super dressed up before, but it feels so nice.
I walk out of the bathroom and into our room where Kaden is sitting on the edge of the bed focused on his phone, the clicking noise from my heels causes his head to jerk up away from his phone.
His eyes wander around my body and his mouth is slightly parted open, he is left completely in shock.
“wow” a low whisper can be heard from Kaden.
“Bella, you look… gorgeous” he smiles, now standing in front of me.
“Thank you” I say while blushing.
He takes a few steps closer and kisses me for what seems forever but was only a few seconds, he pulls away and motions me to the door.
We get in the car and make our way to wherever he seems to have in mind, I just hope I’m not overdressed.
Kaden is wearing a black button up shirt and his iconic black jeans, before we left, he grabbed a red tie to match my dress and a black jacket.
We pull up to a very secluded restaurant that is mesmerizing, the color is white and there are stained glass windows covering the whole front of the building, when we walk inside several chandeliers hang from the ceiling which is painted a rich gold color.
“Reservations for Mr. and Mrs. Romilla” Kaden informs the host.
I can’t help but almost laugh right there because he managed to form our names together for this fake identity we’ve created.
The host walks us towards this room that has one single table inside and nobody can see inside of the room, but we can see outside of the room.
“Would we like to order any of the specialty drinks today” the host asks.
“I’ll take just a water and she’ll do a glass of red wine” Kaden answers for both of us.
I’ve never even had red wine before…
“Mr. and Mrs. Romilla huh?” I finally say laughing at the sounds of it.
Kaden laughs at the sound of it “Creative aren’t I” he says proud of his made-up names.
“So, I guess I’ll be trying red wine for the first time” I say out loud.
“I think you’ll like it; you seem the red wine type but if you don’t, I’ll order you something else of course Bella.” Kaden says in his very opinionated tone.
The server brings our drinks back and takes our food order.
Kaden got salmon with steam vegetables, and I got spicy chicken pasta with a side salad.
Both of us loved the delicious food that we ordered. I have never had such a good pasta before.
“I hate to ask this but how long until we can you know… actually be together without hiding” I ask concerningly.
Kaden’s eyes scan the room before giving an answer
“I’m not sure Bella, hopefully not much longer. I don’t know what this crazy bitch expects me to do and why she thinks she can make me fall in love with her” he says getting a bit annoyed.
“oh.. okay” I say sounding a little disappointed, which I was.
If I’m going to be with Kaden, I don’t want to have to keep doing this hiding stuff, I want to go out and be able to be in public with him without worrying about his psychotic ex-girlfriend.
“I’m sorry I’m putting you through this Bella, but I promise one day this will be passed us” he says genuinely
I give him a small assuring smile and we proceed to look over the dessert menu before deciding on a delicious chocolate lava cake.
The waitress brings out the slice of lava cake and the two of us dig in immediately.
“oh my gosh this is the best lava cake I’ve ever had before” I groan completely stuffed after everything we’ve had to eat tonight
“we should order some to go” Kaden suggests
“I am so full, ill pass on the to go order” I laugh looking down at the empty plate in front of us.
Once we’ve finally finished, the waitress brought the bill, we paid and made our way back to the Greenwood house.
As I sit in the passenger seat I can’t help but admire him, his left hand remains on the steering wheel as his right rests on my thigh.
His face is focused on the road for the most part, as he takes a few glimpses over at me letting a soft smile appear.
We pull into the gated long gravel driveway that goes to the house, once we’ve made it to the house, Kaden walks to the passenger side of the car opening the door for me and helping me into the house.
My feet are so sore from these heels I’m so not used to wearing them at all.
I feel like any moment I could just pass out, I’m so exhausted and Kaden has obviously picked up on this.
Before I know it he has picked me up bridal style and is carrying me to our room.
“Bella let’s get you changed” he whispers lightly.
I nod in agreement, totally wanting to get out of these heels and this dress.
He helps take off my shoes and then my dress. I look for some pajamas, but Kaden decided to give me one of his t-shirts instead.
He slips the large black t-shirt over my head and proceeds to sit me on the bed
I crawl under the covers and am quickly met with warmth, Kaden pulls me close into him and I instantly feel at ease.
“Saige” he says in a low whisper
“hmm” I manage to respond to him
“I love you” he says while tracing little circle around my back
“I love you too Kaden” I say looking at him with a soft smile
“no matter what ill choose you every time” he says placing a small kiss on my forehead as I doze off into a much needed sleep
