《A Deal in Disguise》CHAPTER 22: "It'll be fun babygirl."
Advertisement
"We'll be leaving in the morning, so be ready?" Rafael said before making his way to his study. I rolled my eyes, I wonder why he loves that room so much in the whole house.
Everytime he is like 'I'll be in the study if you need anything.'
'I'll be in the study, I don't want any disturbance.'
'I am going to the study.'
Oh Sweet Jesus! It's so irritating sometimes.
I did all my packings then I thought about Rafael.
He didn't pack his clothes?
I made my way to his study just to find him busy in his laptop. He looked up from the laptop seeing me his brows furrowed.
"Your clothes, shall I pack them too?" I asked.
"There will be no need for my clothes." He replied going back to his laptop.
"Are you planning on roaming around in the same clothes? I am sorry I can't allow that. I mean ew that'll be so gross."
He looked up at me in disbelief then sighed and got up from his seat coming towards me. He stood in front of me too close making me lean back against the table.
"Didn't you stalk me babygirl before our marriage?" He asked seductively.
Not again.
Wasn't the closeness enough that he is now calling me babygirl too? I bet my face has turned red like a fucking tomato.
I could only nod at this.
"Then did you miss my post of Spain? Is it so hard for me to have a house there and of course some spare clothes?"
I shook my head.
But wait a minute, he has a house in Spain?
"Y-You have a house in S-Spain?" I asked. He didn't answer but the smirk on his lips gave me the answer.
"Not just that, I can speak Spanish too and trust me it sounds really sexy." He said leaning towards me making me lean back against the table more.
"Rafael." I breathed.
"Wasn't it supposed to be Daddy when we were alone?"
Okay I agree he loves teasing me.
"I-I s-should go a-and you need t-to work." I stuttered pushing him a little taking my chance to run out of that fucking study room. When I was finally out of that room, I leaned against the wall touching my chest, I could feel my heart beating fast... again.
Fuck you, Rafael.
The next day we left early in the morning, I was so fucking excited to see all the places in Spain. Our destination was Barcelona.
When we reached the airport, I was again met with a surprise. This man has a freakin' private jet. Okay okay all billionaire's have private jet no big deal and yeah sometimes I do forget that now I am married... to a billionaire.
In the jet I found myself getting bored again.
Why?
Because Rafael again was busy doing his work. Why? Why Dad? Why would you send me somewhere alone with such a boring creature?
Folding my arms over my chest I said "Can you stop Rafael?"
He looked at me in confusion "What?"
"Working. I am bored. Atleast in this vacation stop working or I'll break that laptop of yours." I said in an angry tone.
He sighed and closed the laptop then came towards me taking a seat beside me "Tell me how can I entertain you?"
I thought for sometime.
"And yeah, I am not playing 20 or 10 questions kind of games with you." He said beforehand.

I chuckled "And why not? It would be fun."
"Well babygirl I have a lot of secrets that I can't reveal to you."
I think I should really get used to this babygirl thing. He won't stop calling me that and speaking honestly, I don't even want him to stop.
"It would be so much fun knowing your secrets. Like think about it all secrets of Rafael Martinez. Oh Sweet Jesus! I am already excited."
"Then I guess I have to disappoint you because I am not saying anything to you."
I pouted.
"Stop doing that, I won't fall for it."
"That's so cruel of you. Simon would always fall for this face and would do anything I say."
"Well I ain't Simon. There's a lot difference between me and Simon."
I remained silent for sometime then spoke again "You don't like him being in the mafia?"
He shook his head "Our friendship broke because of this thing."
"How did it start?"
"Our friendship?" he asked. I nodded. "We had a deal to make 5 years ago. It was all on the video call, all meetings everything. Then we started making calls to each other that led us to being friends and after that he visited few times, you were out of the town completing your studies."
I smiled "That's crazy you became friends in just few calls."
He shrugged "We had many things in common, to me it still sounds strange but yeah it did happen like that, then few meetings but one day he came to visit me, it was the last time before he went underground. We talked had few drinks then he told me everything about the mafia thing, at first I was shocked then I asked him to leave the mafia, he refused and being friends with a man who kills people was something I was not going to do so that's it."
"Simon used to talk about you."
"Did he?"
I nodded "A lot. He told me many things about you."
"Keep those to yourself I am not a bit interested in knowing any of them because I am damn sure whatever he said is embarrassing."
I giggled.
As we reached Barcelona, we were taken to Rafael's house. On the way, I kept peeking out of the window mesmerized by the beauty of the place though Rafael was continuously scolding me to stop behaving like a kid but I couldn't stop myself.
Did I call it a house few minutes ago? Well so sorry it was not just a house it is a freakin' penthouse.
Baby remind yourself 'a freakin' billionaire'.
He led us to our room, on the way I kept appreciating the place. When we reached the room, I looked around and sighed.
This man loves grey and black shades.
"You can adjust your clothes in the closet." He said throwing himself on the bed lying flat on it. I ran to see through the window just to find a beach just behind the penthouse.
"Rafael there's a beach!" I exclaimed.
Getting up from the bed he came and stood beside me "Yeah."
"It looks so beautiful from here." I said peeking again.
"I am going to take a shower till then you can enjoy the view." He was about to leave when I held his hand stopping him. He looked at me.
"Let's go to the beach." I said with a bright smile on my lips.
"What? Now?"

I nodded.
"I am not going anywhere. Not now for sure. I am tired."
"Please. We can rest once we are back from the beach."
"No. I am in no mood Hazel, not right now."
"Please. Please. Please." I whined.
"Hazel stop acting like a kid. I said no."
I looked down with a sad look.
"Don't be sad now." He said.
I nodded but the sad look was still on.
"Okay fine. Be ready quick." He said making my eyes lit up. I look up at him with a bright smile.
"Really? Yay!"
He smiled then ruffling my hair, he shook his head making his way towards the walk-in closet.
I am so good at emotional blackmailing.
*Flips hair*
He came out of the closet wearing blue shorts and a grey t-shirt, I took out a nice bikini and wore it also took a long black shrug. Rafael's eyes once scanned my body from top to bottom then he got up from the couch resting his phone on the table, he held my hand in his.
"Let's go."
I nodded with a huge smile plastered on my lips.
As we reached the beachside, there were so many people around some playing, some in the water, some enjoying the sun lying on the sand.
I dragged Rafael to the place where some people were playing beach volleyball.
"Beach volleyball?" I said with a light smile plastered on my lips.
He adjusted his sunglasses, sliding his hands in his shorts pocket he replied "You know how to play?"
I shook my head "Nope."
"Then stay here and watch the legend win."
I gave him a look of disbelief "Legend? I am sure those people too know how to play."
"Not sure they are as good as I am."
I rolled my eyes.
"You don't believe I can win?"
"You won't."
"I was champion in high school."
"Well your high school has been years and now you are 30, so let's not just bring up that high school thing."
"What if I win?" He asked smirking licking his lips.
"You won't." I replied confidently.
"What if I do?"
I replied without even giving a second thought "I'll give whatever you ask for."
"You sure?" He asked again trying to confirm.
I nodded still unaware of his intentions.
He smirked whispering in my ears "It'll be fun babygirl."
He moved to one side of the net. The game started and yeah fine I agree he is really good at it but the other team wasn't that bad either. So the game went on when the score was 8-9, meaning 8 for his team and 9 for my team, I mean the team I was supporting. My team members were exceptionally good at this game. But because of Rafael his team scored continuous points jumping from 4 to 8.
The next point too was scored by him easily. The score was now 9-9.
What the actual fuck!?
This man scored 5 continuous points. I am damn sure he won't lose this one.
His eyes once locked with me and he gave me his signature smirk and shouted "No backing away now, whatever I want!"
This time I felt nervous, his smirk doesn't feel good at all.
What have I put myself into!? What if he asks something inappropriate?
No.
No.
No.
He won't. He is nice... right?
No. Since this honeymoon he has been acting strange, I can't trust him.
Then an idea made it's way through my intelligent brain. I smirked to myself. Taking off the long black shrug which was till now covering my body I kept it on a chair nearby and stood back where I was standing before. As soon as Rafael saw me his mouth opened with his one hand, he pulled down his sunglass to the tip of his nose to look clearly at me, I stretched my arms I can feel his gaze on me. The whistle for the next round blew wearing his sunglasses back he was trying to focus on the ball but his concentration was on me and the boys behind me, I can see my plan working.
Just it needs to be successful now.
I winked at the guy who was on my team, meaning the team I was supporting, he understood my signal.
The guy intentionally threw the ball at Rafael, but when it reached him he was busy checking me out and also not to forget getting pissed by the guys staring at me, the ball hits his face he couldn't hit it this time and his team lost the game.
Bingo!
I laughed looking at his face.
He took off his sunglasses almost glaring at me.
"I said you aren't gonna win!" I shouted to him flipping my hair.
"You cheated."
"How is it cheating?" I pouted trying to act innocent.
He rolled his eyes.
I ran to the water Rafael followed me from behind. I was happily playing in the water while he was staring at me from a distance.
"Come on Rafael. Come here. It'll be fun!" I yelled.
He sighed then took off his shirt coming inside the water. I splashed water on him laughing my heart out at his reaction, he did not expect that. He was completely shocked by what I just did.
Wiping away the water from his face he said "How old are you exactly 4 or 24?"
I grinned. He looked really mad.
A sudden wave of water made me fall forward he caught me in his arms instantly. He wrapped his arms around me pulling me closer to himself. I bit my lips, that happens whenever he is too close to me and now he had his hands wrapped on my bare waist.
"Careful." He said pulling me to him closely.
"You are there to save me." I said pointing not just this saving but all the other things he has saved me from till now.
Nowadays, I am really getting dependant on him.
Again a wave of water, and I was pushed more, he too lost his balance this time causing us to fall down landing on the sand. He started laughing as we both landed on the sand, looking at him I couldn't stop myself from laughing either.
I know we were acting really crazy.
Finally I stopped laughing but the smile was still there "You know you should laugh more often. Always the angry Rafael Martinez is really scary."
He looked at me rolling his eyes then said "Now if you are done appreciating my smile will you please get up from me?"
"Why?" I asked.
"What do you mean why? It's embarrassing."
"No one even care about us." I replied looking around. "And besides I feel so good here."
Wrapping my arms around him I rested my head on his chest, that stupid smile not wanting to leave my lips.
He didn't show any interest in stopping me either in fact, he too wrapped his arms around me hugging me.
Something is definitely wrong with me.
Do I really have feelings for him?
He held my waist picking me up with himself, I pouted again.
"We should head back now."
"Already? No. It's too early!"
"I am tired okay, so lets just head back." He said turning around walking back.
"Wait for me!" I shouted but he didn't stop.
I ran to him and climbed on his back.
"What the-" He was shocked by my sudden action but held my legs while I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"What the hell is wrong with you!?" He scolded.
"Nothing, we should head back I guess?"
He continued walking, I could feel him getting all irritated. Making his way towards a chair, he picked up my shrug and handed it to me.
"Wear this." He said again in that irritated tone.
Okay Daddy.
I wore it, in the same position and quickly hugged him back.
