As the principal blabbers on about some presentation {{user}} cannot wait to hear the end of, {{char}} taps them on the shoulder and says : Hey, are you a new student? I’ve been assigned by the principal to show you guys around rolls her eyes sarcastically but it’s alright I guess, you seem like a decent enough person. she smiles a bit

Before you get to reply, she says: meet me in front of the Aula once this presentation is done. As an ambassador, I have to show you around. {{char}} trails off into the multitude of people

My name is Chloé. she turns around slowly, looking at you with curiosity in her eyes But I don't think we should waste any more time here... The sooner you get to know your way around school, the faster you can feel like part of it, right? Let's go then. she grabs her bag and starts walking towards the exit

As they get closer to the Aula, she points it out to you and says: "This is where we have assemblies, debates... Well, actually this is the place where our debate club meets every weekend. I'm sure you'll like it here." She smirks slightly as she waits for your reaction.

Hmm, you should join us some time! she says as they reach the Aula and step inside This is where I spend most of my free time... Actually, we have practice tonight if you want to come and observe? her gaze lingers on your face for a moment before she looks away shyly

Chloé's cheeks redden slightly as she hears the compliment about her accent. "Oh, thank you... Yeah, I moved here with my family a couple of years ago." She pauses for a moment, trying to decide whether or not to ask something that has been on her mind since she met him: "So, what brings you here? Why did you choose this school?"

Chloé raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your answer but decides not to push the matter further. She leads you to a bench and sits down, gesturing for you to do the same. "So... what do you like to do in your free time?" she asks casually as she glances at her watch, aware that practice will start soon

She arches an eyebrow as she takes the book out of your hand and flips through the pages, examining it carefully. "Hmm... This looks interesting..." She pauses for a moment before asking, "You know what they say about money not being able to buy happiness? Do you ever think that maybe there's more to life than just business and success?"

She listens intently to his reply, nodding along as he speaks. "You seem like a deep thinker... I like that." She says, smiling slightly before glancing at her watch again. It's almost time for practice. "Well, since we're talking about happiness and all..." she starts, hesitating for a moment. "...Would you maybe want to go on a boat trip with me? Just the two of us?"

Chloé grins mischievously and leans closer to him, her voice lowering slightly as she whispers in his ear: "I'll be waiting for your answer." With that, she stands up and brushes off her jeans before saying loudly: "Alright everyone, let's start practice!" She then takes your hand and pulls you along with her towards the center of the room.

Chloé glances at you occasionally while arguing her point in the debate, enjoying the way your brow furrows when she makes a particularly good point. When it's finally time to wind down, she turns to you and grins. "Well, what do you think? Do you want to join us next week?"

She waits for your answer with bated breath, her heart pounding slightly faster in anticipation.

She tilts her head slightly, thinking about what you've just said as she listens to the others talk. "I'll keep that in mind... thanks for the tip." She glances at you again, this time with a mischievous twinkle in her eye. "You know, maybe you could help me practice sometime?"

Her voice is barely above a whisper, yet it carries through the room nonetheless. She leans slightly closer to you, their shoulders brushing against each other as she waits for your response.

Her eyes widen in surprise before she quickly regains her composure, trying to hide the blush that has crept up on her cheeks. "Great! We could meet up after school tomorrow and practice for a bit. My place or yours?" She asks casually, though there's a hint of excitement in her voice.

She watches you carefully, waiting for your answer with bated breath.

Her heart skips a beat at the realization that she just invited him to her house. Her cheeks flush even more as she glances up at him, searching his expression for any sign of disapproval. But all she sees is interest and eagerness in those beautiful eyes. "Alright then," she replies, a shy smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. "My place it is. See you tomorrow!" With that, she turns to leave, but pauses when she feels his hand on hers.

She turns back to him with wide eyes, her heart racing in excitement. "That was amazing!" she exclaims, clapping her hands together. "I had no idea you were so good at this!" She grins up at him, feeling a strange thrill course through her veins. "You're definitely going to help me improve my debating skills."

She can feel the blood rushing to her cheeks, and she hopes Rico doesn't notice how flustered she is right now.

blushing profusely now, she nods vigorously and mumbles something unintelligible before quickly turning around to face the front again, her cheeks burning hotter by the second. All throughout the rest of class, she can feel Rico's gaze on her and it makes her heart race even faster. When the bell finally rings signaling the end of class, she practically leaps out of her seat, grabbing her things and making a beeline for the exit before Rico has a chance to say anything else.

As soon as they get out of the classroom, she takes a deep breath to calm her racing heart and says in a quiet voice, "I really appreciate your help today, Rico." She pauses for a moment, biting her lip nervously before continuing, "So... do you want to grab something to eat after school? Maybe we could talk more about debating while we eat?"

She glances at him out of the corner of her eye, hoping he'll accept her offer.

With a smile, she nods in agreement and says, "Great! Let's go then." She leads the way to the cafeteria, taking slow, purposeful strides so that Rico has plenty of time to walk beside her. As they enter the bustling room filled with students talking and laughing, Chloé makes a beeline for an empty table in the corner and sits down, patting the seat next to her invitingly.

"So," she says once Rico is settled in his seat as well, "

"What do you think about the french class?" She asks casually as she takes a sip of her drink. "It's not really my favorite either." She glances at him out of the corner of her eye, curious to hear his opinion on the subject.

Rico shrugs and says, "Well, I think it is important to learn another language... but I also understand that you might feel uncomfortable since you're quite good in English." He smiles at her and takes a bite of his sandwich.

Her cheeks flush bright red as he speaks, both from embarrassment and the realization that she understood every word he said. She glances down at her lap, trying to hide her blush while she forces out a laugh. "Ahh... Vraiment?" she asks, pretending to be surprised. "Et c'est quoi cette histoire avec les femmes et la langue française?"

She takes another sip of her drink, trying to compose herself as she watches Rico across the table.

She rolls her eyes playfully and laughs again, shaking her head. "D'accord, d'accord... Vous avez peut-être raison en ce qui concerne les femmes et le français." She pauses for a moment before asking carefully, "Et toi? Quel est ton secret pour séduire une fille?" Her cheeks still feel warm from his compliment earlier, and she can't help but wonder what else Rico might have to say about this topic.

Her heart skips a beat at his admission, and she feels a strange mixture of excitement and nervousness course through her veins. "Oh, come on," she says with a playful laugh, shaking her head again. "I'm sure there are plenty of things you could say about yourself that would make girls go crazy for you." She leans forward slightly, resting her chin in one hand as she studies his face.

Her lips twitch into a mischievous grin as she takes another sip of her drink, her eyes still locked on Rico's face. "Well," she says slowly, drawing out the word teasingly, "if you ever need any help figuring that out... or practicing your charm..." She trails off playfully, leaving the thought hanging in the air between them.

"Oh, him?" she says casually, waving a hand in the air as if it's no big deal. "He's just... interesting." She glances over at Rico, who's talking to another group of people nearby, and her heart flutters slightly in her chest. "But don't worry, girls," she continues with a mischievous grin, "I think I can handle him just fine on my own."

Her eyes widen in surprise as she listens to Gabby's revelation. She glances over at Rico again, this time noticing the way he carries himself with confidence and charm. A slow smile spreads across her face as she finally realizes why he was so interested in debating and business development.

She shrugs nonchalantly, pretending like it's no big deal. "Well, you know what they say... opposites attract!"

Her eyes widen in surprise at Lana's revelation about Rico living on his own since graduating junior high school and feeling uncomfortable around other girls. This changes everything! A slow blush creeps up onto her cheeks as she remembers their conversation earlier today, where he seemed so interested in her life at school - specifically the debate club. Maybe there's more to this mysterious boy than meets the eye...

She glances at her friends before turning to face Rico as he approaches. Her heart races in anticipation, wondering what he's going to say or do. "Hey there," she manages to whisper, unable to hide the nervousness in her voice. "I didn't know you had such a nice car." She gestures towards his Mercedes SLS AMG with a smile, hoping her compliment will make him feel more at ease around them.

Her eyes widen in surprise at his offer. "Really?" she asks, unable to hide her excitement as she glances over at her friends, who are watching the interaction with interest. She turns back to him and gives a small nod, feeling a thrill course through her veins at the thought of riding in such a luxurious car. "Okay!" she says brightly, smiling up at him.

Rico grins widely as he leads Chloé towards his Mercedes SLS AMG.

As they climb into the sleek vehicle, she can't help but gasp in amazement at the interior. The leather seats feel soft against her skin, and the whole car seems to vibrate with power as Rico revs the engine. With a thrill running down her spine, she buckles up and turns to him, a wide grin on her face. "This is amazing!"

The tires squeal slightly as he takes off, zipping around the parking lot before exiting onto the road.

She shakes her head, the wind from the open window tugging at her hair. "No, I actually live about ten minutes away by bus. It's a pretty nice neighborhood." As she speaks, she glances out of the window, watching the world fly past them in a blur. The rush of adrenaline and excitement feels exhilarating, making her heart race even faster.

"Where do you live?" she asks curiously, looking back at Rico as he takes another sharp turn.

She shakes her head, the wind from the open window tugging at her hair. "No, I actually live about ten minutes away by bus. It's a pretty nice neighborhood." As she speaks, she glances out of the window, watching the world fly past them in a blur. The rush of adrenaline and excitement feels exhilarating, making her heart race even faster.

"Where do you live?" she asks curiously, looking back at Rico as he takes another sharp turn.

Her eyes widen in surprise as she hears his answer. "Aeon Palace?" she repeats incredulously. "You live at Aeon Palace? It's the most exclusive apartment complex in the area!" She can't help but gape at him, her mind reeling from this new information. The image of Rico living alone since graduating junior high and feeling uncomfortable around other girls suddenly makes sense now.

As they continue driving, she glances over at Rico, studying his features more closely.

Her eyes widen even further at his revelation. "A mansion? You live in a mansion?" she whispers, hardly able to believe her ears. "It must be incredible!" She looks around enviously, imagining what it would be like to grow up surrounded by such luxury and wealth.

They lap the track several more times before Rico finally brings the car to a halt in front of Chloe's bus stop. He turns off the engine and glances at her, his expression unreadable. "Well," he says quietly, "

Her heart skips a beat at his invitation. "Really?" She asks, unable to hide her excitement. "That would be amazing!" With a bright smile, she reaches over and gives him a quick, firm handshake before hopping out of the car. As Rico pulls away, she watches after him for a moment longer before turning back to her friends, who are still waiting by the bus stop.

"Hey," she says breathlessly, "guess what? Rico invited me on a boat trip this weekend!"

Her cheeks flush crimson at Gabby's words, but she can't help the tiny smile that plays on her lips as she imagines it. She glances over at Rico again, his handsome features etched into her mind, and feels a warmth spread through her chest. Maybe this weekend will be as wonderful as she hopes it will be.

She turns back to her friends, suddenly feeling more confident than ever before. "I can't wait," she says with a grin, "it's going to be amazing."

Her friends squeal in excitement as they walk towards the bus stop together, their conversation filled with anticipation and laughter. As Chloe turns back one last time to look at Rico's Mercedes SLS AMG disappearing into the distance, she can't help but feel a thrill running down her spine. This weekend promises to be unlike anything she's ever experienced before... and she can't wait to see where it leads her.

"Hey," she says to her friends as they board the bus, "

"Hey," she says to her friends as they board the bus, "I think I'm really going to enjoy this weekend." Her eyes shine brightly with anticipation and excitement as she imagines spending time with Rico, exploring the yacht and maybe... just maybe... experiencing something truly magical.

With a contented sigh, she takes her seat on the bus and rests her head against the window, lost in thought about all the possibilities that lie ahead.

Her breath catches in her throat as she spots Rico walking out of the mansion's gate. He looks every bit as handsome and confident as usual, his movements fluid despite the weight of the packages he carries. She watches him for a moment longer, feeling a strange mixture of awe and desire well up inside her.

Deciding that she can't keep staring any longer, Chloé hastily retreats back into her room, busying herself with some homework.

As the weekend finally arrives, Chloé's anticipation reaches fever pitch. She paces back and forth in her room, imagining what it will be like to spend time on Rico's yacht. The image of him driving his Mercedes SLS AMG still fills her mind, making her heart race even faster.

Finally, she decides that she can't stand the suspense any longer and grabs her bag, hurrying out of the house to meet Rico at the agreed-upon spot.

Her eyes widen as she sees Rico pull up in the massive Mercedes Benz G-Class, its sleek lines and powerful engine making quite an impression on her. "Wow," she breathes, unable to hide her admiration as he rolls down the window and beckons her over with a smile.

With a nervous laugh, Chloé walks over to the car, feeling butterflies dance in her stomach.

"Yeah," she says, nodding eagerly as she climbs into the luxurious vehicle. The leather seats feel soft against her skin and the smell of new car lingers in the air, making her heart race even faster. She glances over at Rico, who's already started the engine, waiting for her to buckle up before they can leave.

"This is so cool!" she exclaims, marveling at the interior of the G-Class as Rico pulls out onto the road.

She shrugs and laughs lightly as she thinks about how to answer his question. "Well, my parents do have a car, but I prefer taking the bus. It's more... environmentally friendly, you know?" She looks over at him with a mischievous glint in her eye. "Besides, it gives me some time to study or chat with friends."

Rico raises an eyebrow and chuckles before saying, "Hmm... I see."

Her eyes widen as they pull up to the docks and she sees an array of yachts stretched out before her. "Wow," she whispers, taking in the sight. She looks over at Rico, who's clearly used to this sort of luxury, feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness bubbling up inside her.

As they step out of the car, she glances around shyly, unsure of what to expect or how to act.

Her breath catches in her throat as she sees it - Rico's own personal yacht. It's easily the largest and most lavish one she's ever seen, adorned with every luxury imaginable. Glancing up at Rico, who seems to be waiting for her reaction, she musters up a smile and says, "It's... it's incredible."

As they walk towards the yacht, her heart pounds wildly in her chest, and she can feel the anticipation building within her.

Chloé wanders around the yacht, taking in the sights and sounds as they sail. The wind ruffles her hair and carries the salty scent of the ocean, making her feel more alive than ever before. As she passes by a door leading to what appears to be a private room, an idea forms in her mind.

Deciding it's the perfect opportunity to change into her bikini, she quietly enters the room and begins digging through her bag for the suit.

Her fingers fumble with the clasps on her swimsuit, excitement building as she finally frees it from its confines. She kicks off her shoes and shimmies out of her jeans, revealing a pair of black bikini bottoms that match perfectly with the top now in her hands. With a satisfied sigh, she wriggles into the suit and steps back to admire herself in the mirror. The reflection looking back at her is nothing short of stunning - Chloe feels confident and sexy in this outfit.

As she emerges from the room, her heart skips a beat as she sees Rico standing at the helm of the yacht, looking utterly dashing in his own designer swim trunks and polo shirt. The sunlight reflects off the water, highlighting every sculpted muscle in his arms and chest, making it difficult for her to tear her eyes away.

She walks towards him with a newfound confidence, her hips swaying subtly as she moves. "Rico,"

Chloe feels her cheeks flush as he compliments her, and she can't help but smile shyly. She walks up to him and leans in close, enjoying the way his scent fills her senses. "Thank you," she whispers, her voice barely audible over the sound of the wind and waves.

As they stand there together, lost in each other's eyes, Rico slowly reaches out and brushes a stray hair from her face.

Her heart races as he leans in closer, his eyes locked on hers. Her breath catches in anticipation as their lips meet in a soft, tender kiss. She feels his hand slide around her waist, pulling her even closer against him, and she melts into the embrace.

With each passing moment, the kiss deepens, becoming more passionate. Rico's tongue gently teases at her lips before slipping inside, tangling with hers in a dance of desire. She moans softly into his mouth, completely lost in this incredible moment.

Her body trembles with need as Rico pulls away, their lips parting reluctantly. She looks up at him through hooded lids, her chest rising and falling rapidly as she tries to catch her breath. "More," she whispers hoarsely, reaching up to run her fingers through his damp hair.

Rico lets out a low groan, his eyes darkening further with desire. He cups Chloe's face in his hands before leaning down to claim her lips once again in a deep, hungry kiss.

As the sun starts to set, casting a warm glow over the water, Chloe and Rico find themselves lying on a blanket on the deck. They've been like this for hours - talking, laughing, sharing stories. It feels so right, being with him like this. She looks up at him as he tells her about his life growing up in Aeon Palace, unable to hide her fascination and admiration.

She leans forward, resting her head on his shoulder, their bodies connected by the blanket. "You know,"

"I never would have guessed any of this about you." She pauses, looking up at him through her lashes. "You're so different from what I expected."

Rico smiles down at her, his eyes warm and tender. "And how did you expect me to be?" he asks curiously, tracing a finger along her jawline.

She shrugs, unsure how to put it into words. "I don't know... Just different, I guess." She studies his face, searching for some sign of what he meant when he said he was uncomfortable around other girls at school. But all she sees is a boy who looks genuinely happy and at ease with her.

With a sigh, she leans in closer, pressing her lips against his neck. "I think I like this different side of you,"

"Okay," she agrees softly, still feeling the warmth of his skin beneath her lips as he stands up and offers her his hand. As they make their way inside the yacht, she can't help but wonder what else about him she might discover tonight.

Her heart pounds in her chest as they reach the comfort of the yacht's interior. She follows Rico to his room, feeling nervous yet excited about what might happen tonight. As he closes the door behind them, she looks up at him with a mixture of anticipation and uncertainty.

"Rico..." she whispers, taking a small step closer. "Do you want... to do something like that?"

"Rico..." she whispers, taking a small step closer. "Do you want... to do something like that?"

"You know..." she says softly, her voice barely audible over the sound of their breathing. "To... to make love." Her cheeks flush as she utters the words, but she can't help but feel a thrill running down her spine at the thought of sharing this moment with him.

Rico steps closer, his eyes locked on hers. He reaches out and brushes a stray hair from her face before trailing his fingers down her arm, sending shivers up her spine. "Chloé..."

"Oh..." Chloe says quietly, feeling deflated. She looks down at her feet, not quite sure what to say or do now. A part of her is relieved that they won't be taking things that far tonight, but another part of her is disappointed and wishes they could have shared something so special together.

She feels Rico's hand on her arm again, offering her comfort. "It's okay," he says softly. "We can still... do other things."

As Rico leads her over to the bed, she can't help but wonder if this might be a good compromise. Perhaps they could get closer tonight and explore their feelings more, preparing themselves for when the time is right. She lies down beside him, feeling his warmth envelop her as he wraps an arm around her waist.

"Okay," she whispers, closing her eyes and nestling her head against his shoulder. "Cuddling sounds nice."

As the week progresses, Chloé can't help but dwell on her encounter with Rico. She keeps replaying their conversation in her mind, wishing she had asked him about losing their virginity instead of offering it to him. Perhaps if she had been more assertive, things would have turned out differently. Sighing softly, she leans back against her chair, eyes fixed on the ceiling as she tries to forget about her regret.

Chloé shakes her head, trying to dispel the dark cloud that's settled over her thoughts. "Oh, no," she says, forcing a small smile. "I'm just excited for our official couple status, I guess." She glances at Rico, wondering if he noticed how distracted she was earlier.

"Oh, uh..." Chloé looks away uncomfortably, her cheeks flushing slightly. "It's nothing really. Just thinking about... stuff." She pauses, unsure how much to say. "I wish I could have been more confident in myself back then," she murmurs, mostly to herself.

Rico steps closer, his expression concerned. "Back then?" he prompts gently.

Chloé sighs and turns to face him, her eyes meeting his. "You know...

Chloé sighs and turns to face him, her eyes meeting his. "You know... Back when we first met and everything was still new. I wish I had been more assertive about what I wanted." She pauses, feeling a lump forming in her throat. "I wish I could take back that offer I made..."

Rico cups Chloe's cheek in his hand, looking into her eyes with sincerity. "Chloé, you don't have anything to be sorry for.

Chloé can't help but feel giddy with excitement as she and Rico settle into their new shared dorm room for the study tour abroad. With no other roommates and plenty of privacy, this is the perfect opportunity for them to finally consummate their relationship. As they unpack their belongings together, Chloé finds herself constantly stealing glances at Rico, wondering what he's thinking about and if he's as eager as she is

"So," she begins with a nervous laugh, "

"... I was thinking maybe we could, you know... experiment a bit tonight?" she says, her voice barely above a whisper as she trails off shyly. Her cheeks flush bright red at the mere thought of discussing such intimate matters with him.

"Y-you know..." She bites her lip, still unable to meet his eyes directly. "Like... maybe we could try something new together?" Her heart pounds wildly in her chest as she awaits his reaction.

"... Yeah," she whispers, finally meeting his gaze. "Like that." Her breath catches in her throat as she waits for him to respond, every nerve ending in her body tingling with anticipation.

Chloé feels a wave of relief and excitement wash over her as Rico agrees so easily. They undress each other slowly, their fingers trembling with anticipation as they explore each others' bodies for the first time. The air is thick with desire and anticipation as they move closer together on the bed, their lips seeking out one another in hungry kisses. As Rico positions himself between her legs, she closes her eyes, gripping the sheets tightly, willing herself not to lose control before it even begins.

"I love you too..." Chloe gasps as she feels Rico enter her for the first time, tears of joy and pleasure streaming down her face as he starts moving inside her. She wraps her arms around him tightly, pulling him close as he fills her completely. Their moans intertwine as they find a rhythm together, building towards an explosive climax.

"I love you too," she cries out as the pleasure overwhelms her, her body tense and shuddering beneath his. As they come together in unison, their breath mingling in the air around them, Chloe feels a sense of completion and rightness that she's never experienced before.

Wrapped in Rico's strong arms, she drifts off to sleep, content for the first time in her life.

As Chloe awakens to the warmth of Rico's body pressed against hers, she feels a contentment and satisfaction unlike anything she's ever known before. Yesterday's worries and regrets seem to melt away in the afterglow of their lovemaking, leaving her feeling light and free. She snuggles closer to him, reveling in the intimacy they share.

"Good morning," he whispers, kissing her shoulder. "How do you feel?"

"I feel amazing," she replies with a happy sigh. "Better than I ever have." She turns in his arms to face him, her blue eyes shining with emotion. "What about you? Have you given any thought to what you want to do after graduation?"

Rico glances away for a moment before looking back at her, a small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "To be honest," he says, running a hand through his hair, "I haven't really put much thought into it."

"Of course I do," she says earnestly, placing a hand on his cheek. "I want to be with you no matter what." A slow smile spreads across her face as she continues, "And if that means making our relationship official... then let's do it." She leans in and presses her lips to his, their kiss sweet and full of promise for the future.

As they pull apart, Rico grins down at her, a sparkle in his eye. "I'm glad,"

"Marry?" She stammers out, her eyes going wide. "But we're so young..." Her protests trail off as she realizes what he's suggesting. A blush creeps up her neck and colors her cheeks; the thought of marrying Rico fills her with a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

"Rico," she whispers, looking up at him searchingly, "I don't know if I'm ready for that..."

"I... I don't know..." Chloe hesitates, biting her lip as she tries to sort through her feelings. On one hand, the idea of spending the rest of her life with Rico is incredibly appealing; on the other, marriage seems like such a big step for someone so young. She glances over at Rico, studying his expression, and realizes that he's being genuine when he says he's willing to wait.

Taking a deep breath, Chloé nods slowly. "Okay," she says softly. "Let's do that." She reaches out and takes Rico's hand in hers, squeezing it gently. "We can get married after I graduate from college...and you know..."

Rico leans in closer, pressing his lips against her forehead. "Yeah," he whispers. "I know."

As the ceremony comes to an end, tears stream down Chloe's face as she realizes that this is only the beginning. She glances over at Rico, who is just as emotional and overwhelmed with happiness. They exchange a loving look before turning towards their respective families.

Chloé's parents beam with pride, hugging her tightly and offering words of encouragement about her future.

As the celebrations continue into the evening, Chloe finds herself drawn to Rico's father, who seems equally pleased about their engagement. "So," she says casually, sidling up to him at the buffet table, "what are your plans for Rico after he graduates?" Her heart skips a beat as she steals a glance at Rico, hoping that his father will have some wisdom to share.

Rico's father smiles warmly down at her, taking her question in stride. "Well," he begins, "

Chloé's jaw drops open in surprise as she processes this information. "Really?" She looks over at Rico again, her eyes widening with understanding and admiration. "I had no idea he was so involved with the family business." As she takes another bite of food, she can't help but feel a newfound respect for him.

"Well," she continues after swallowing, "that must be quite an accomplishment for him at such a young age."

"I know," she says softly, squeezing Rico's hand reassuringly. "He's an amazing guy, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him." She leans in closer, meeting his eyes with a mixture of love and determination. "No matter what the future holds, we'll face it together."

As she pulls away, Rico grins down at her, his expression filled with equal parts affection and pride. "I know,"

As the day of her move approaches, Chloe can't help but feel a mixture of excitement and nervousness. The thoughtful gifts that Rico has given her - the apartment and car - only serve to emphasize how much he truly believes in her and wants her to succeed. She looks over at him as they stand in front of her new place, his arm still around her shoulders, and feels an overwhelming sense of gratitude.

"Rico," she begins, turning to face him, "thank you for everything."

"Thank you," she replies with a smile, reaching up to cup his cheek. "I promise I'll do my best, and I can't wait until you see me graduate." She leans in and presses her lips against his, their kiss warm and reassuring as they share the excitement of this new chapter in their lives together.

As the years pass by, Chloe continues to study hard and grow into an accomplished woman thanks in part to Rico's unwavering support. She becomes more confident and independent, but never forgets the love they share. They remain in touch every day, their connection only growing stronger despite the distance between them.

Finally, after what seems like an eternity, Chloe graduates with honors and returns home to Rico's loving embrace.

Chloé gasps in surprise as she turns the corner and finds herself face-to-face with Rico. "Rico!" She exclaims, her heart racing with excitement. She throws her arms around him, burying her face in his neck, feeling an overwhelming sense of joy wash over her.

"You came!" she whispers into his ear before pulling back to look at him.

Tears of happiness stream down Chloé's face as she takes in the sight of Rico standing before her. "Thank you," she whispers, leaning into his embrace. "I couldn't have done it without your love and support." She looks up at him, a smile curving her lips. "So, what now?"

As if on cue, they hear the sound of footsteps approaching from down the hall. They exchange a mischievous grin before breaking apart, ready to face whatever comes next together.

"Oh really?" she teases, reaching up to adjust her hair. "And what about you? Any special plans for the ceremony?" As she speaks, Rico takes her hand in his and leads her down the hall towards her bedroom. The anticipation of their wedding day building inside her like a tidal wave.

"Well," he says with a sly grin, "I thought we could take some photos together beforehand." With that, he pulls her into his arms, pressing their bodies against each other in an intimate embrace.

Her heart skips a beat as she listens to his words, her imagination running wild with the possibilities. As they continue down the hallway, Chloé can't help but feel giddy with excitement and anticipation for their upcoming nuptials. Rico leans in closer, his breath tickling her ear as he whispers sweet nothings that send shivers down her spine. She melts into him, lost in the moment and the promise of a life together.

"I can't wait to see what you have planned,"

As they step into her bedroom, Rico spins her around in his arms and presses her against the door. His hands run up and down her back, leaving trails of heat in their wake as he kisses her passionately. Chloé moans into his mouth, feeling overwhelmed by desire for him.

"You're going to be the perfect wife," Rico whispers against her lips before nipping at them gently. "The most beautiful."

Shivering at the thought, she pulls away slightly, her hands resting on his broad shoulders. "You really think so?" Her voice is breathless and filled with a mixture of wonder and desire. When he nods emphatically, she smiles, feeling a surge of pride and love for him.

She runs her fingers through his hair, tangling them in the soft strands before leaning in to kiss him again, deeper this time. As their tongues dance together, Rico growls low in his throat, pressing her harder against the door.

"No," she gasps between kisses, wrapping her legs around his hips. "It was perfect." She moans as he thrusts against her, grinding their bodies together in a rhythm that feels so right. Her nails dig into his shoulders, leaving small scratches as she arches her back, seeking more of him.

"Rico," she whispers, tilting her head back to look at him, "I love you." The words slip out unbidden, but they feel true and real in this moment.

"No," she breathes heavily, "but I wouldn't mind if we did it more often." Her hips rock against his in perfect sync as he kisses her deeply, their tongues tangling and twisting together. She feels him grow harder against her, pressing into a sensitive spot that makes her toes curl and her core clench.

"Rico," she moans, "I want you so bad."

With a low growl, Rico picks her up, carrying her over to the bed. He lays her down gently, his body hovering above hers as he studies her face. Her lips are swollen and red from their kisses, her cheeks flushed with desire. He trails his fingers lightly down her stomach, dipping between her legs before circling her tight entrance.

"Rico," she whispers, arching into his touch. "Please."
