2 MONTHS LATER

Alexander had already gotten rid of Liam Griffin but Aria still wasn't safe.

There was someone that was keeping a close eye on the two and that someone was just waiting for the right time to attack. Alexander knew that.

Alexander and Aria got really close. They became close friends.

They were attracted to each other and none could deny that. But they didn't show it or said anything about it. They simply ignored the attraction.

Alexander came back from work and saw Aria sitting on the kitchen counter with her hands filled with chocolate cake.

She was looking absolutely cute. The way she was licking the chocolate off her fingers turned Alexander on.

Caroline saw Alexander staring at Aria and smiled, "She wanted to bake."

"Did you help her?" Alexander was curious. Caroline Shook his head,"no, she wanted no help."

Alexander walked towards Aria who gave him a smile and continued eating her cake. "Share with me?" He asked.

"Go make your own cake." Aria chuckled. "I don't know how.",He stated."I can't help you.",Aria replied and took a huge bite from her cake.

She was about to lick off some chocolate on her finger but before she could,Alexander grabbed her wrist and licked the chocolate off for her.

Aria's face heatened up. Her body remained numb. What just happened?

"You didn't want to give me.",He smirked, "It tastes good."

Aria blushed and got down from the island. She washed her hands and turned her face away to hide her red cheeks.

"You look cute when you blush." Alexander said and before she could go, he grabbed her waist and smashed his lips on hers.

Aria didn't pull back but she didn't kiss him back either. She wasn't opening her mouth.

Alexander was sucking her lips. Seeing that she wasn't opening up,he bit her lower lip. She opened her mouth from the pain. Taking the opportunity, Alexander's tongue made his way inside.

His grip tightened on her waist as their tongues dance together. Her hands went to the back of his head and started playing with his hair.

"Aria dear, did you see my--",Caroline stopped on her track when she saw what was happening in front of her, "I'm so sorry--i didn't mean to interrupt."

Aria immediately pulled away from Alexander, her face as red as a tomato. "It's alright. What did you want?" Alexander wasn't at all embarassed.

"I wanted to ask Aria if she saw my phone... but never mind. I found it."she said and took her phone which was on the kitchen counter then left the kitchen.

"Did she really have to interrupt us?"Alexander groaned and glanced at Aria.

He kissed her one last time before going to his room. He took a cold bath to calm himself down.

Aria was still flustered from that happened. She was touching her lips and smiling.

It was no doubt that she had a great liking towards Alexander. He had done nothing but to treat her right and make her happy ever since he met her.

Caroline walked towards her. She stared at her but Aria didn't see her. Her thoughts were on Alex. Caroline then smirked, "Earth to Aria!"

Aria drifted back from her thoughts and looked at Caroline, "What?"

"You're in love with Alexander." Caroline stated with a smile.

"How can you know that?" Aria asked, raising an eyebrow. "We kissed only once. I barely know him. It's been two months only."

"It doesn't matter howong you've known him. Love happens just like that." Caroline grinned.

"I'm not in love with him." Aria scoffed, "I can't be."

"He probably loves you too." Caroline said and Aria went numb. What did she just say?

"What? how do you know that?"Aria asked her, confused with all these feelings and stuffs.

"He has never allowed any woman to stay here. He has never took any woman out. He has never took any woman for shopping. The way he looks at you, is very different. He loves you and I know it, trust me."Caroline was sure of what she thought.

Aria wasn't ready to accept her feelings, just yet. She thought that Alexander would not love her anymore if he learns about her past.

That's why, to end all this feelings and emotions, she decided to tell him everything.

She went to his room and knocked on his door.

"Come in." His loud and intimidating voice responded.

Turning the knob, Aria opened the door and entered. He was sitting on his bed with his head in his hands.

"What happened?" Aria noticed that he was worried about something, she couldn't stop herself from asking.

"I'm stressed out, that's all." he replied.

"What happened?" She wanted to know what got him that stressed out.

"You're in danger. I mean real danger." He sighed, "Some people are after you and they'd do anything to get to you. I can't let anything happen to you, I can't lose you. You know what the worst part is? It's all because of me."

"What are you talking about? Nothing here is your fault. I saved on my own will. Now if I'm in danger then it's my fault and I won't ever regret saving you. It's one of the best thing I've ever done." Aria smiled at him.

"I think I'm falling for you." Alexander mumbled. Hearing him confess was surreal for her. She was falling- scratch that. She has already fallen for him.

"I'm falling for you too" she breathed out, "I need to tell you some things about my past. It might change your feelings about me."
