Chapter 6 - Misunderstanding

Sarah's POV

A few seconds later, the woman stood up and walked towards the restroom.

My eyes filled with tears. He was playing with me. I believed him like a fool. I couldn't breathe anymore.

When I turned around to leave, Dimitri called my name behind me. I turned around. Our eyes met. He was looking at me, surprised. He stood up and set the little girl on her feet.

I walked towards them in slow steps. He smiled at me. He walked closer to me and wrapped his arm around my waist, kissing my cheek.

"What are you doing here, kiska?" He asked.

Is it a joke?!

I looked at him, full of anger and disappointment in my eyes. I pulled back. He looked at me, puzzled.

The little girl walked towards us, looking at me. She stopped beside Dimitri. I was looking at her. She was so beautiful and cute.

"Дядя, кто она?" She asked him something in Russian.

"Одну минуту, принцесса." He replied, stroking her hair. She nodded, giving him an innocent smile.

"Are you fine, kiska? Your face is pale." He said, concerned, placing his hand on my arm.

I pulled my arm away.

Suddenly, my head spun. He caught me by my waist quickly.

"Sarah!" He placed his hand on my cheek.

"Bring some water!" He ordered a waiter.

"Come. Sit down." He helped me sit down.

The waiter brought a glass of water for me. Dimitri grabbed the glass and extended it to me. I took it with my trembling hands.

"Are you better now?" He asked and bent down beside me.

"Yes...Sorry for disturbing your family time. Your daughter is waiting for you." I murmured dryly. He looked at me, puzzled.

"My daughter?" He asked with questioning eyes, raising his eyebrow.

A few seconds later, the corner of his lips curled up. He straightened, smirking.

"Let me introduce you to my niece, Karina." He stated, smirking.

I looked at him, dumbfounded.

His niece?

"Karina, meet my girlfriend, Sarah." He said, emphasizing the words my girlfriend, stroking the little girl's hair while looking into my eyes.

"Hi." The little girl greeted me, giving me a shy smile.

"Hi." I mumbled, smiling at her, still in shock.

"Dima?" I heard a woman's voice coming behind me.

I turned towards her.

She had a pair of green eyes. The same shade as Dimitri and little girl's. She looked like Dimitri.

"Valentina, let me introduce you to Sarah. She is my girlfriend. Sarah, this is Valentina, my sister." Dimitri introduced.

My cheeks turned crimson red. I stood up.

"Nice to meet you, dear. Dimitri talked about you a lot." She said happily and hugged me. I hugged her back, embarrassed.

"Nice to meet you, too." I mumbled, giving her a slight smile.

"Are you okay, dear?" She asked me, concerned.

"Yeah, I am." I murmured.

Dimitri chuckled. I couldn't look him in his eyes.

Stupid Sarah!

"Umm..I need to go...See you later." I said.

"See you later, dear." She gave me a broad smile.

"I am coming." Dimitri informed his sister. She nodded.

He placed his hand on my lower back and headed us towards the exit.

"Sorry." I murmured.

He placed his hand on my cheek and stroked it.

"It is great to know that you are jealous." He commented huskily, caressing my cheek with his thumb. I blushed.

He leaned closer to me and captured my lips. He wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him, cupping my cheek. I moved my hand up from his chest to his neck while kissing him.

He pulled back. "You are mine tonight. Be ready at 7.00 o'clock." He stated huskily. I nodded.

Dimitri's POV

After Sarah had left, I walked back. I was so happy; she was jealous. I couldn't stop myself from smiling.

I sat down on the seat next to Valentina.

"She is beautiful." My sister commented, giving me a knowing smile. I smirked.

"Yes, she is." I agreed.

"Aww. My little brother is in love. Finally! I was about to lose my hope." She commented, placing her hand on top of my hand on the table, giving me an impish smile. I chuckled.

Sarah's POV

After taking a shower, I put on a black mini dress. I left my hair open. I took my clutch and went downstairs. Dimitri was waiting for me in front of the hotel.

He wore a white shirt and black jeans. He looked so handsome.

When he saw me, he looked at me from head to toe. He wrapped his arm around me as he approached me and pulled me into his chest. He brushed his lips against mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I responded to his kiss.

He pulled back and leaned his forehead against mine.

"You are so beautiful." He murmured.

"Thank you."

He pulled back and opened the door for me. I got in the car. He got in the car and started driving.

After having dinner, he said he had a surprise for me.

He pulled his car over as we arrived at our destination. We got out of the car. He approached me and pulled a silk scarf out of his pocket.

"Turn around and close your eyes." He demanded huskily.

I turned around without protesting. I was wondering what was his surprise. I closed my eyes. He covered my eyes with the scarf. He wrapped his arm around me and helped me to walk.

We walked into somewhere. Car noises stopped. A few minutes later, the wind was blowing through my hair.

"Are you ready? " He murmured in my ear.

"Yes." I replied in excitement.

He uncovered my eyes; I opened my eyes. We were on the roof.

"Dimitri!" I exclaimed in awe; the incredible and luminous view of the city's canals and rivers was in front of us. Like the city was at our feet.

There was a blanket on the floor and a bottle of wine and two glasses on it. He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind.

"You....I...the sky...and...a bottle of wine." He murmured in my ear, emphasizing each word, placing kisses on my neck.

I turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I... like...you...I...the sky...and...a bottle of wine." I stated, emphasizing each word, between placing kisses on his lips.

We were sitting on the blanket, drinking and talking. Then, we lay down on the blanket and started watching the sky.

He leaned on his elbow, running his fingertip along my cheek. I turned my eyes towards him. He was looking at me with salacious eyes. He leaned over me and captured my lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me. He moved his lips down to my neck, kissing my neck while he removed the strap of my dress.

I placed my head on his bare chest, only in his shirt. He wrapped his arm around me and placed a kiss on my hair.
