Power couple.

After spending the whole night talking and going through old stuff of my parents, I slept at aunt's room.

I move in my sleep feeling the sun on me and the light from it disturbed my sleep.

I duck my head into the pillow to hide away from it.

As aunt Lucy's room was down next to kitchen so I can clearly heard she's making something because of the cluttering of utensils.

"Dahlia, darling. Wake up. Your boyfriend is here." She said in a loud voice so that I can hear.

As her words reached my ears, my eyes wide opened and I quickly tried to got up from the bed and with a thud I just rolled over the bed.

"Dahlia, are you okay?" I heard Rachel's voice and within a second the door slammed open and there he was- walking in concerned, seeing me sitting on the floor.

I gulped in nervousness- my hair was a mess- I was wearing just a tank top with an underwear and my face... well it was just swelled up a bit from sleeping.

And he just saw me in this situation.

"Come on, get up." he walked forward and offered a hand to make me stand up.

Feeling awkward, I just put my hand on his and managed to get up.

I felt his gaze at me from up to down and with a whistle he said, "What a view!" a hint of grin on his face made him look hot.

"Okay, stop it." I said as I pulled him away from myself.

"How much I wish to wake up next to you every morning." he said with sincerity in his eyes.

I stood there completely lost in those ocean blue eyes.

The deeper I gaze, the further I got lost in it.

"I know I have deep and appealing eyes but don't stare like this. It's kinda freaking me out." he cleared his throat and said.

His behavior showed that he was nervous.

Nervous around me? But why?

"So, as it's our first day together as a couple, I want the whole college to know about us." he said as he made himself sit on the edge of the bed.

"Means?" I asked unaware.

"Means I want to show you off - tell the whole world that I'm in love with the prettiest girl in the world." he said it all loud, then cleared his throat as if he had said something wrong.

A ghost of smile touched my lips and I replied, "Oh, is that so?"

"Anyways.. get ready. I'm waiting for you." he smiled and walked out of the room leaving me completely astonished.

A few minutes later I went outside the room and saw aunt Lucy and my newly become boyfriend were talking like they already know each other.

I cleared my throat and walked towards the dining table.

"Oh, you're here." he said as he smiled towards me.

"Come on, darling.. have something." aunt Lucy said sipping her morning coffee.

I quietly got seated next to my boyfriend and started eating.

"You look pretty." he whispered in a low voice.

This was all new to me.

I never had a boyfriend in my entire life.

Now that I have one, I don't know how to respond to his compliments.

"Thank you." I simply replied with my eyes buried down at the plate.

"Oh don't thank me love. It's just your beauty is beyond this world." he smiled towards me and my heart pounded violently.

This man is just the opposite of what I thought him to be.

He's nice.. caring, talkative and he smiled alot - which according to me is a very attractive thing.

Fifteen minutes later when we both were done with the breakfast, he asked, "Shall we?" then aunt Lucy said, " Have fun darling. And you young man.. I give my niece to you." to which Rafael just a hand on his chest and bowed down fakely with a wide smile on his face.

"I'm honored." he replied.

As soon as both of us stepped out the house, he said, "You know it's our first day together and I'm hell excited."

I gave him a half smile to which he replied by saying, "I hope I'm not being clingy and all..."

"Oh no, not at all. It's just that I don't know how to act in front of you." I replied honestly and awkwardly, of course.

"Act natural. Just the way you are." he took my hand and opened the passenger door of his car like a gentleman.

He's been doing things.. I only saw it on movies.

He was sweet and caring.

Should I call myself lucky to have such a handsome and popular boyfriend or it's just a dream?

What if he breaks my heart?

I don't want to fall for a wrong guy.

What if he's a fuckboy and had a bet with few of his friends to spend a night with me and all?

Lost in deep thoughts I didn't even realize that we reached the college.

His car stopped by the engine.

"You alright?" he asked with a concern voice.

"Yes." I replied confidently.

"You didn't said a word all the way." he replied and got out of the car.. walked towards my side, opened the door for me and offered a hand.

"Your Majesty?" he smiled.

I let out a chuckle and put my hand on his and stepped out.

I felt all eyes were on me and my boyfriend Rafael King.

He wore his shades and reached out to held my hand.

We both walked side by side, hands in hands.

I heard people gossiping about us and specially me.

'S this is the girlfriend of Rafael King. Omg! Such a punk.'

'Maybe they slept together or something.'

'Why the hell did Rafael chose this weirdo?'

y'all of the hot girls here and he chose the Gothic beauty.'

'OMG! They look adorable together.'

'Power couple.'

'Made for each other.'

"Don't pay attention." he whispered in my ear as he held my waist tightly.

"Come on, let's meet my friends." he added as we walked towards a group of people... A large group actually.

"Oh.. Look who decided to show up." said a girl a knee length frock.

"The power couple is here." smiled a boy.

"Guys, meet my girlfriend..." As Rafael was speaking, all of his friends interrupted him saying, "Dahlia Brooks! We know dude."

"Right." he said with a hint of confusion on his face.

I chuckled lightly to which he said, "Isn't she the perfect girl?" gazing deep in my eyes.

Whenever I stared deep in his eyes, all I see is truth, love and care for me.

I know it is too soon to say this but I feel like he's the most loyal person I've ever met.

"Yea, she's pretty cool." said a girl of his squad .

"Dude you both are all over the headlines." said a boy.

Our college has this group where teachers and students both share.. like everything.

Confessions, gossips, rants everything.

And today the got topic is Rafael and his perfect girlfriend.

"So,Dahlia.. one pickup line for your boyfriend." said a girl named Rose.

"Oh guys.. not her." Rafael scoffed as if he knew what his friends were up to.

"You stay quiet." said Rose.

"Okay." I replied nodding, Rafael gave me a 'are you sure' look and I blinked my eyes.

"Your body is a wonderland and I'd like to be Alice." I said staring directly in his eyes.

"Woah!" All of his friends cheered while he looked at me astonished.

After that his wife smile melted my heart and I felt my cheeks flushed.

"That was hot!" Rose said.

"Congratulations dude. Your girlfriend is being approved." said Rose winking at my direction.

"Oh hush! As if I'm waiting for your approval." he scoffed.

"So... Alice.." he whispered in my ear giving my shivers all over my body.

Within a second, he took my hand and walked towards the boys locker room.
