The next morning, I woke up with the worst feeling ever. My head is aching so much and I felt pain at some part of my body. Well, of course, Catalina keeps on stopping me from drinking and her grip was tight making my arms to have some bruises.

I sat up and I found out that I am in my room...alone. There are some pain killers on the bed side table, a note is also placed. It was Rafael's hand writing.

Drink this.

It will make you feel better

I have a meeting about the company so don't expect me when you wake up.

Ill be home as soon as I can.

I have a lot of explaining to do later. Damn it, I mentally slap myself as the happenings last night flashes through me. I totally made a scene at the club! I have to apologize to Catalina, Rich and..Michael?

Fuck. This is making my head hurts more.

I drank the capsule and stood up from the bed. My clothes are still the same as last night so no touchy with Rafael...I think.

I went straight to the bathroom to take a bath and to be fully awake. The warm water felt so good as it falls down my skin. It feels so refreshing.

After a few minutes, I am already finished and put on the robe. I dried my hair using the blow dryer as I sat down on the edge of my bed. Suddenly, my stomach growled, telling me time to eat.

Okay, I stopped drying my hair and run downstairs and head to the huge sparkling kitchen. I opened the fridge to check out if I can cook something. Jeez, such a large fridge but zero foods. Does that man know how to buy some groceries? You just can't eat hotel foods for the rest of your life.

Hm...what should I cook? How about pancake? Since I am expert in making that food.

Okay then...pancake it is.

I started to ready the ingredients for the pancake. I am still in my silk robe and no underwear within. Well, I am alone so it's fine. Rafael is surely not finished with his meeting so probably I have the whole hour for me.

I put on some music. Rafael told me how to use those speakers and music is already places in. I volumed up the music and danced, swayed my hips with the song.

That's Not My Name by The Ting Tings played first and it is a very active song so it made me more in the mood. I was also singing and didn't know if someone is gonna burst into the room.

"That's not my name!" I sang as I serve the pancake on the table. Syrup...where's the syrup?

I search on the top drawers and search for some syrups and I found it on the highest one. I don't know if I can reach that. I jump as highest as I can but still no use. I grab the high stool and stepped on it, raising my hand to reach it but since this stool is high and no arms, I lose my balance.

My one foot made a wrong step causing me to fall. A loud squeal came out from me but I felt strong warm arms caught my body before I could make contact with the floor. I opened my eyes and I came face to face with my one and only husband.

"Right on time" his hot breathe fanned my red face. Shit, I don't have any clothing under this robe! And I can feel his hands on the side of it and it makes me blush even more.

Then he moved his hand, he also noticed it "You PERVERT!!!" I yelled in his face and pushed him away, making me wrap my arms around me. "H-how long have you been here?"

Rafael smirked sexily and leaned his back on the fridge "I don't know...5 minutes maybe? You were too busy dancing beautifully to notice me, baby"

"Y-you were watching me?" Now that is embarrassing.

He just shrugged and stare at me "It was a good show, Belle. You must do that most of the time for me. It can lighten up my boring day." He teased me, walking closer to me but I stepped back.

My face must be so red right now. This is really embarrassing. He saw me singing, dancing, swaying my stick body and he even touch my boobs! He is such a pervert!

"F-fuck you" I whispered, under my breathe. Then I was about to leave him there but he grab my hand, pulling me back in front of him. But this time...

No more teasing face. He went back to his usual cold presence.

"We still have many things to talk about, Belle." He started, meeting my eyes "What are you doing at the club last night, drunk and going wild?"

Shit, what should I say? Because I am so fucking hurt and confused of what I feel. That I married a guy who I know will never ever love me back? You want me to answer that, Rafael? Really?

"Belle?" He urged me to continue.

I raised my head to look at his gorgeous eyes and it feels like his eyes were staring right through me. Reading me.

"Nothing is wrong, Rafael. I-I was just drinking, like I usually do before...this...having fun? And it turns out that I became too drunk and didn't control my actions. I-I'm sorry for what I cause. Did the media know about this?" I asked, nervously. I was trying my best to avoid his eyes because they are seeking answers from me.

"No" he replied, taking a step back to lean on the table "Josh came with me last night and I made him tell the people that concern at the club that this won't go out to the media. " he said, taking a bite of the pancake I bought "Okay...now care to tell me the truth?"

"What?"

"Why are you drinking at the bar? Don't you know how I kick the rat's ass?" He stated, without looking at me.

My eyebrows touched in confusion "Rat?" Who is he calling a rat?

"Michael? Is that his name?"

My eyes suddenly widen "What did you do to Michael?"

"Nothing much. He is just getting in my way. You know I hate people who gets what's mine and he talks to me like I am just a piece of cake in your life" he muttered, straightly.

I am still not getting the picture here.

"What do you mean?"

"Tell that friend of yours to know who he is talking to. He must know that I am your and I have all the right to you" he said, his fist tightened that makes his knuckles turn to white.

I just stood there, watching him in confusion. I wonder what happened between the two of them, making him angry like this. I know Michael can he a jerk but there is no way he will start a fight unless he is fighting for something important to him.

"I'm sorry" the only thing I can say, "I caused so many troubles again, didn't I? I'm sorry" slowly, I put a hand on his shoulder but then it crawled, my next hand came next then I wrap them around him in a hug. "I'm really sorry"

I had caused him so many troubles. They are all of my fault. Rafael is always the one repairing the damages I have done. His life has gotten worse when he married me. Now, his Dad is still not believing our marriage.

Then my heart sped up when I felt Rafael pulled me by my waist and hugged me tighter as I lean my body against him. I was too shock to move a little so I felt his one hand slowly make it's way towards my nape and made me lean my head on his chest.

"Even just for a second, please...just a quick hug." he whispered, near my ear as I feel his arms around me gets tighter. My heart in my chest is beating so quick like I had ran a thousand miles and blood rushes to my face.

"R-Rafael...?" I murmured, my face is still buried in his chest but the tense in my body relaxes so I just hug him back and a smile smile formed from my lips. "You care for me, don't you?"

Oops, did I say that? I didn't mean to say that out loud.

I quickly unwrap my hands from him and pulled out with a shock face "I-I mean....I didn't~"

"~I already had the meeting my Dad and the others about the company" he said, pulling away as well.

Oh-kay....

"Er...what happened?" I asked, walking around the table to seat on the stool and started to eat the pancake that I made.

"Of course I tried to be good at first. There are still a lot of process to do before I could really destroy it. I need to get everyone's trust first, right?" He smirked evilly. "I still haven't seen my bastard of a brother. I really want to punch in his face that I won. I am better than him"

"And then what?" I faced him, seriousness in my voice.

His eyebrows furrowed and crossed his arms "What was that tone suppose to mean?"

I sighed and put my fork down. Can I eat properly without distraction? "After you had that revenge, having your father beg on his knees, so is your brother....will you be satisfy?"

His eyes darken at my words. I know that he knows that I am hitting him because he sigh deeply.

I scratched the back of my head, double thinking the words I am going to say "Just answer my question, Mr. Knight. Will you be happy if your Dad is begging for mercy in front of you. Crying because the company he had worked so hard is gonna be destroyed by If that happens will you be happy?"

"I am a cold heartless man, baby. The word happiness is not deserved by a man like me" he stated blankly as he focused his eyes away from me.

"Everyone deserves happiness, Rafael. Even a paid girl like me deserves that." I spoke weakly, my hands are even shaking. I can't believe this. "Don't think so lowly. Look how successful you are!"

"Being successful is not enough to be happy, my dear wife." He spoke his eyes were something else., then I saw the corner of his mouth lifts up "I've been left by a lot of people so they can be successful. Even you, once our deal is done...you will leave me because you finally succeed to pretend us my wife, right?" there are bitterness in his voice making me shiver.

I felt hurt in how he said that. "Do you really~"

The door bell rings, breaking our little moment. Fuck, who would that be at this time in the morning?

The front door opened then one of the staff in this hotel shows up "The limo is here, Sir." He informed. Damn it, I am still in my bath robe!!!

Wait...the limo? I turn to Rafael with a questioning look. As far as I know, he only used the limo in special occasions or when he is attending a special business partner.

"Are you going somewhere?" I questioned, finished my food.

He nod his head to the boy and send him away before he went to the living room with me following behind. I will just wash my plate later. Rafael put on his suit that was hanged on the couch. Okay, still not answering me.

I was standing on the corner , just watching him arrange himself.

"I'll be having a breakfast with a client today so do not expect me for lunch. " he told me, opening the front door but before he leave , he spoke to me "Dress something formal for Steve's birthday party tonight. I will have my driver to pick you up"

"W-wait..." I called before he leave "You're not coming back before the party?"

"No. I will see you tonight, Belle. I'll call you by noon" he said then finally closed the door. There he is again, leaving me alone in this huge and wonderful condo but it's lonely in here. I don't like the silence and the feeling of having having no one but me in a place.

Damn, I have to call Catalina and apologized after the scene I made!!! I ran to the telephone and quickly dialed Catalina's number. Lucky her, she had a phone while I don't.

"Hello?" She answered in a lazy tone, oops, I just woke up someone.

"Hey you bitch"

"Belle?!" She gasped on the other line "You stupid woman! Didn't you know the scene you made at the club last night? Damn, thank God your husband just arrived in time!"

"Yeah, I am very sorry for what happened. Did Ms. Dane knew about this?" I asked, biting my fingernails.

"No, she didn't." She answers making me sigh in relief. Thank goodness, if she found out about this, she surely won't forgive me. " Your husband's cute brother threatened everyone to not let the public know about this. What a damn bitch you are, Isabelle."

I chuckled "So, what do you plan now that you finally love your husband? They must he some awkward tensions between the two of you"

"He doesn't know" I muttered, twirling the telephone wire with one hand as I sat back on the couch.

"What?!" She gasped and I feel like my ear drums are gonna burst.

"He doesn't love me back" I murmured softly, as my heart feels down a bit as the words he said to me earlier flashes to my mind.

Poor guy....he just need someone that can show him and tell him that happiness is deserved by everyone. He needs someone that can show him the love he needs. But I don't know if I can do that.

"Jeez, that's...that's...weird" she stuttered then some seconds of silence enveloped us. "I am not really good in giving some love advises but...maybe give him time? Or he is just not ready to tell you that he loves you back, right? Don't loose hope".

A small smile came out from me "Thanks, Catalina. I don't know what should I do without you" I said, while chuckling.

"You know that I am always here for you, bitch." She chuckled as well "Come and visit the club when you have time"

"Sure...I need to apologize Rich"

"Oh, don't mind that guy. He understands you anyway even though he is kinda twisted" she joked making me laugh again.

Hay...I really missed laughing. I barely made myself laugh happily when my life here started. "Okay, Catalina. I will call you back or visit you again. Bye-bye."

Then our call ends. It always feels so nice and relaxing when I talk to Catalina when I feel sad or something. Michael is great in giving some advises to but...in our situation, it's better to keep my distance for a the meantime. It's not only me he had a problem with but he made a problem with my husband which is not a good thing.

Well, I will me staying and staring at the walls for the next hours again. I don't have anything to go to anyway so...silence...

Hm...what should I do? I don't want to note myself so I maybe go out of the hotel and shop around? Besides, Rafael leaves his credit card for me in case of emergency. But I think this can be called like that because I am so freaking bored!

But of course...I have to take a bath first and wear something nice before I go out. I am sure some annoying rats (paparazzi) are gonna be following me so I better be good looking.
