Blossom

Alessandro's POV

"Are you sure she's okay with this?" Ace asks me for the hundredth time.

Rolling my eyes at his constant nagging, I grab the breakfast tray I made so I could take up to my sleeping rose we had worn out last night.

After Ace asking rose if she was willing to be with the both of us at the same time, she nodded tiredly before falling in a deep blissful slumber. She may have given her answer with a sleepy smile but my overthinking twin brother had thought she was ignoring him. And now that it was the morning after, he just couldn't get the thought of her rejecting him out of his mind.

I guess being a narcissist male for so long that slept with anything with a hole, had his mind going haywire just from not getting a full worded answer from the first woman he's ever taken an interest more than sex towards.

"Good morning beautiful" I whisper while planting soft kisses on her sleeping face.

She smiled instantly after I began pecking her plump lips that were still swollen from last night. Her eyes slowly opened before I felt her soft hands pulling my head down to smash our lips together.

"This is a good morning indeed" She mumbles after pulling away and noticing me in nothing but boxers.

"I want my beautiful girlfriend to eat first after how well she did last night" I beamed while putting out the tray of breakfast dishes I made before she woke up.

"You spoil me too much" She sighed out before kissing my cheek and diving into her meal.

"Can I get one of those too?" Ace piped up behind me.

Stopping herself from picking up the piece of French toast she was cutting, I watched my rose turn towards the doorway of the room with her arms out and a big grin on her face.

"I knew I was forgetting a boyfriend" She joked as Ace rolled his eyes before rushing over excitedly.

If I didn't know any better, I'd think this was the first time my brother has ever been in a relationship. In fact, I don't think he's ever taken the time of day to actually label any woman he's been with since he first been with a girl. The girls he 'dated' in elementary school through high school weren't anything more than a chick he had fun with, both sexually and platonic.

When people say my twin brother and I are polar opposites, they're absolutely right. I was more mature and straight forward when it came to being with girls and women I dated. While Ace on the other hand was more of a toot it and boot it kind of guy. In no way was I going to slut shame him, since I've also had my fun with women.

But the only difference between me and him was that I always laid out my intentions with every woman I was with. Whether it for the night or for real, I made sure I took care of the woman with me. I didn't use them and throw them away like my small brained brother does.

And now that he was going to head forward with being together with my rose as a trio, I'll do anything I can to make sure he does nothing of that sort with my rose. I love my brother but if he ever does anything to hurt her, I'd cut his balls off. He likes to say bro's before hoes, but my rose was nowhere near being a hoe so there will be no bros before hoes with her.

"Did you help Alessandro with this breakfast in bed?" She asks after pulling away from his multiple kisses.

"Yes I did" he answers proudly making me roll my eyes.

"Making her a cup of ice tea isn't helping" I scoff as he flips me off.

"Actually, I made her favorite cup of ice chai tea" He chided before handing her the cup and straw.

One of the many details I've taken in with my rose was that she loved to go to Starbucks. Which I found weird considering the fact that she didn't drink coffee. But after noticing her always drinking a venti cup of ice chai tea latte that she always brought with her when we had lunch breaks together, I made myself remember exactly what she liked to drink. So when we were officially together, I'd impress her by making what she loved to drink everyday at home instead of having her waste money on something I can make for her just a few feet away from our bed where I'd love to be having her 24/7.

"How did you know I loved drinking this?" She asks after taking a sip with a big smile.

"I may have taken a peek at my brothers notes in his phone under what my rose likes" He snickered before wincing at me slapping the back of his head.

"You take notes on what I like?!" She gasps before pulling me down to plant a kiss on my surprised lips.

"I can also make notes!" Ace chimes in while taking out his phone as she laughs at him opening his empty notes app.

"It's okay Ace, it's not like we've known each other as long as me and Alessandro have" She reassured him.

Rose's words must've hit my brother in a sensitive spot because while she went back to to scarfing down her food happily, his eyes glazed over in deep thought. I knew my brother more than anyone else in this world, and the look he was having right now made me know that he had just gotten an idea pop up in his mind.

"You're right! You haven't known me as long as you have my brother, so today I want to spend the whole day with you. Alone. So we can get to know each other more! It's always great to get to know who your new boyfriend will be before continuing this new journey together, right brother?" He advices while turning to me for help.

Sure I was protective and possessive when it came to my rose, but I also trusted my brother to treat her the same way I have been treating her these past few months. He may not be the brightest person in the world, but I knew he had in him to woo her the same way I did. Maybe not as romantic as I have but I'm sure he can put his big boy pants on and treat her the same way our mother has taught us to woo the woman we would soon fall in love with. Ace may not be in love with rose but I have no doubt in my mind that he will be soon when it comes to this alluring woman.

"Of course, you two can take the day to go out together and get to know each other the same way me and rose have been doing for many weeks before" I add on as she looked to me with wide eyes.

"If we are to be hanging out all day, where will you be?" She asks worriedly before I kissed her head soothingly.

"Luckily for me, I have some business to attend to here. And on top of that, I'm thinking of buying my own place here. It's not like I should be living out of my brothers place here the whole time I'm here" I shrugged as my brother nods.

"Great! I'll go make some plans now so all you have to do is finish eating and then get ready to hang out with the fun twin" He snickers before winking at her and rushing out of the room.

"I've never seen my brother so excited about something before" I chuckle while watching rose eating the chocolate croissant I had made earlier.

"Are you sure you're fine with us hanging out without you?" She asks while sipping her tea now.

"If we're going to make this work between the three of us, then you two need to be as close as the two of us are. We shouldn't be having two out three people in the relationship being closer than the third person. I'm already close to the both of you due to him being my brother and you being my long awaited girlfriend, now it's time for you two to grow close" I answer truthfully making her smile.

"Thank you for being very patient for me for so long" She mumbles against my cheek before planting kisses along my face.

"Anything for you, my rose" I mutter against her lips as she made sure to leave a long kiss on my lips.

As soon as she pulled away to finish her large tray of food, I made my way back to the other room I was supposed to be staying in with my suitcase still in there. Grabbing a random suit from inside, I walked into the bathroom to get ready for a day of work and buying a house for not just myself but for all 3 of us.

Sure it was nice for Ace to have us stay in his little condo but I for sure was not going to keep traveling here with my rose just to stay in some bachelors sex condo. I can't even imagine how much used condoms and sex sweat my brothers been having all around that place. I'd rather get a clean new place for us to stay in than that playboy house.

"You both look so handsome!" Rose gasps excitedly watching us both walk downstairs where she was waiting for us.

"You look beautiful, rose" I reply before planting a kiss on her lips as she wraps her arms around the both of us.

While I was dressed up in an all dark blue suit and black shoes, my brother was wearing all black shirt, jeans and his black boots. Like always, our styles were completely different. While he had a laidback style, I was more into wearing business attire 24/7. I guess that's what happens when one twin brother grows up having to work all the time while the other liked to have fun all the time.

"This dress makes you more sexier by the second" Ace snickers before sliding his hand down her back.

"No inappropriate touching today. I'm fine with holding hands and kissing but not too much. I don't like public PDA, that's the first thing you should get to know about me today" She pipes up while slapping my brothers hand making him pout.

"Can I at least keep my hand on your ass while we walk past guys that try to look at what's mine?" He asks with a frown as she rolls her eyes.

"I know you don't know this, but women aren't objects. You can't be all caveman like in public and label her as yours because she's not a toy to be claimed brother" I bud into their conversation as she nods with a smile.

"There's something you need to learn since this is your first ever relationship, and I'm glad to know that with a beautifully smart woman like rose, you'll always be able to learn when it comes to her" I add on making her lean up to kiss me again triumphantly.

"I know. But if I do everything you tell me today, will I get as much kisses as Alessandro gets?" Ace asks with a pout as she laughs before kissing his cheek.

"If you're a good boy and learn what my boundaries are than you'll get all the kisses you want tonight" She replies seductively sliding her hands up his chest.

"Okay! Let's go! Lets start our day already so we can come back and use my reward tonight!" He cheers while leading her towards the door as she waved goodbye before being dragged out.

...

"You want to buy it right now?" The real estate agent asks in shock as I hand him the check.

"My men will be coming by with my stuff soon, thanks for your work" I reply, feeling my phone ring in my pocket.

The realtor's shocked eyes glanced between the check I gave him and me before he nodded quickly thanking me and walking away with excitement. I guess handing a realtor agent double the amount of the payment of a 7 bedroom villa in Italy was something any realtor would be excited for now a days.

"Alessandro Leonel Anderson! Tell me why the hell I didn't get to know about you and your brother dating the same woman until today?!" A demanding familiar female voice shouts through my phone speaker.

"Mom, what are you talking about?" I ask while wincing at her loud angry voice.

"Your brother has been sending romantic pictures of him with some woman in Italy to me, and when I asked who the woman was, I was shocked to find out his answer was 'Alessandro and I's new girlfriend'. I'm sorry what?! You and your brother have a girlfriend now?! Together?! As in the both of you with her?!" She rambles on dramatically making me roll my eyes.

"Isn't this what you wanted in the first place?! You're the one that's been nagging all of us to get Ace to settle down with someone for once and now that he's deciding to do it together with me, what's so wrong with that?! You've always wanted us to be close and you wanted him to stop whoring around, this literally should be like killing two birds with one stone in your eyes" I retort back while rubbing my forehead.

"I'm not angry about you two sharing the girl! That's not anything new in our family's history, what I'm angry about is the fact that I didn't know about it till right now! Do you two love hiding things from me or something?! How long have you two been with this woman?! How did you two even-" before she could finish her overbearing questions, I cut her off quickly.

"I'll answer all that when me and Ace go back to the states next week. For now, just let us spend time with our future wife with no distractions" I respond, hearing a loud dramatic gasp on the other end.

"Future wife?! Now I have to meet her! I wanna meet the woman who magically gotten both my twin sons to settle down! She must be some type of goddess that is secretly the child of Aphrodite or something. Is she as beautiful as she is in the pictures your brothers been sending me?!" She rambles on before I hung up the phone in annoyance.

I should've known that fucking idiot would be the type of guy to send romantic pictures of them to our mother. He hasn't even been dating her for a whole day and yet he's already like some love sick boy sending pictures to his mom. Playboy my ass. Motherfucker has always been the more cheesy romantic guy than I was. At least I didn't take pictures of the girl I'm dating and sending it to my mom.

Turning my phone off to avoid the millions of calls and texts my mother was going to send for hanging up on her, I walked into my newly bought villa to make sure everything was set up for tonight. My men were already on the way with both rose and I's things. My brother can keep his condo for all I care, I'd rather just sleep in a place that wasn't used, reduced and recycled with STD and HIV orgies all over the place.

Walking around the villa, I made sure everything was exactly the way my rose would like. I may or may not have been stalking her Pinterest page recently. After she finally dumped the man child of a fiancé she had, I made it my personal mission to do everything I can to make her happy now that she was mine. Well, half mine and half my brother if we were to go into detail.

While the men I hired were working on bringing our stuff, I had already phoned the best interior designers to come in and fix up the villa exactly the same way my rose liked according to her Pinterest and Instagram pages that she's been following due to the interior designs. If I was going to be her man, I'd make sure to make all her dreams come true to the fullest. Starting off with a place that she'd be comfortable in staying

in while we're in Italy.

Not only was I buying a place for the both of us to stay comfortably in, but I was also buying a place for us to stay in whenever we'll be traveling here in the future. I definitely was going to be traveling a lot here with her in the future, I mean this was the very place where we first made love to each other. And I definitely wasn't going to stop remembering and making this place a permanent vacation spot I'll be taking us both whenever we need time away from the busy things we have in the states.

...

"Where are we going?" Ace asks suspiciously looking around the streets.

"It's a surprise" I reply while smiling at the small hand in mine.

After their full day of having fun and getting to know each other, Ace had gotten my text of me wanting to show them something that I've been working on all day. I didn't wanna tell him since his big mouth would most definitely end up telling rose, so all I let him know was that I'd needed them to get dressed nicely for tonight since I was going to surprise them at the end of their day together.

Once again, I was driving all three of us with rose beside me in front and Ace looking out of his window behind us like a child at a candy shop. He was still trying to work out what I had in store. I've told them earlier that I was looking for a place for myself but they didn't know I was going to actually buy a villa for all 3 of us to stay in while we're in Italy.

"Is this where we'll be eating dinner?" Rose asks with a shocked look.

From the outside of the villa, all the lights were on inside and with the way the place was shining outside of it made it seem more like a restaurant or a luxury hotel. I laughed at both of their confused yet stunned faces before leading them inside of the villa.

"This place is nice and all, but what are we doing in someone else's place?" Ace chuckles while eyeing the filled cookie jars on the long kitchen counter.

"This is my surprise" I reply, noticing they were still confused as to what I was showing them.

"Welcome to our new villa! It's ours as in all 3 of us" I add on making both their eyes bulge out in shock.

"You bought this place for all three of us?!" Rose gasps with an excited look.

"You don't wanna sleep at my bachelor pad anymore?" Ace snickers before I backhanded him for the thousandth time today.

"This place is so beautiful. How did you manage to move all of our stuff in so quick?" Rose asks after noticing my suitcase was still in the living room.

"I made sure to get everything done quickly before I could surprise you guys with this" I shrug off trying not to go into detail about how many people I had to get to get everything finished in less than 24 hours.

"It looks like every person dream house" She admitted while staring in awe at the interior designs.

Her eyes widened at the curtains and paintings on the walls of the living room before eyeing the furniture in the living room. She touched the soft new couches I had installed in here while moving around to look at the kitchen area where I had managed to buy all the ingredients, snacks and even drinks that I knew she liked. It was nice to see her smile at all the things she's admired online only to have it come alive right in front of her eyes.

"This is all amazing, did you pick everything out on your own?" She asks out loud, walking towards the big windows overlooking the big pool in the backyard.

"Yes, I've had some personal choices that inspired me to pick out the tiny details" I respond nonchalantly watching her smile before walking back to the kitchen where Ace was trying to scarf down cookies from the jaw he was eyeing earlier.

"Maybe if you weren't stuffing your face, you'd notice that I was actually making something for our first dinner here" I say, rolling my eyes as he wipes his hands with a cheeky grin.

"Wait, you're making something for dinner?" He asks after gulping the cookies in his impatient mouth.

"It's not like you don't know that I cook" I respond with an annoyed look making him snort.

"Don't blame me for not remembering my brother who's hardly out of his office, actually knows how to cook. I've probably only seen you cook one time since I moved in with you a few months ago. And that was when we woke rose up today for breakfast in bed" He noted as I turned towards the oven to pull out my food that I was making earlier.

While I was thinking of what the perfect first meal in our villa would be, I ended up using one of my fathers favorite meals he'd love to make for us when we were kids. I remembered the recipe as easily as I did with everything else I had learned from my father growing up. It was no question that I've always looked up to my father and when it came to him doing things I wanted to learn, I'd memorize every little detail. There was no doubt that with my mindset, my father had made sure I was the exact person to take over his company.

"The family favorite. I knew you had the recipe but your angry bird ass just don't want to give it to me" Ace mindlessly speaks while watching me take out the hot pan carefully.

He continues to chastise me about not letting him have the recipe of one of his favorite meals from our childhood but like always, I ignored his annoying voice while making sure I had gotten everything settled in front of me.

While he was rambling on, I made sure to get the food and the side dishes ready. Seeing that I was ignoring him, Ace finally decided to set the table. Rose was still looking around and familiarizing herself with the villa so it gave us some time to set the table and put out all the dishes before she came out.

"You really outdone yourself bro. I never saw you do all this for a girl. If I knew all you needed was for me to settle down with you for you to be this caring and kind, I would've stopped whoring around a long time ago" He snickers before the sound of heels made us both turn towards the dining room entrance.

"My nose smelled something delicious. I'm glad I followed it since it lead me to three hot meals" She says eyeing us both with a smirk before looking at the dining room table.

"Well let's get your stomach filled before we fill the rest of you up tonight" Ace teases while winking at her.

She giggles before sitting down beside me when I sat at the head of the table. I was surprised to see Ace sit on the opposite side of her on my other side. Usually he'd always sit at the head of the table when it was me and him eating together but I guess with rose beside me, it'd make sense for him to sit across from her instead of farther away.

"All this food looks so delicious, you made all this by yourself" She asks while scooping her food.

"It's not much, plus growing up with our big family, I've gotten used to making tons of food for the night" I chuckle at the same time I was pouring her some wine.

Looking out at the table, I admired my work. It wasn't exactly as big of a feast that I usually would see at my family home but it was enough for the 3 of us.

Using my fathers recipe, I decided to make a pan of chicken pot pie and pot roast while having side dishes to eat along with it. There was a big salad bowl, Brussels sprouts, roasted asparagus, rice, sautéed green beans, corn on the cob, Mac and cheese, bread rolls, and even spinach dip in bread.

"I feel like we'll be having a lot of left overs from this" She chuckles as her eyes wandered around all the food.

"With the way Ace is eating, I doubt that" I whisper before she laughed at my brother scarfing his food like a hungry animal.

"This is fucking delicious" He mumbles while grabbing the whole plate of spinach dip in bread.

Slapping his arm I gestured towards rose who was watching him with amusement. He grunted while wiping his mouth before apologizing for his animalistic eating. Rose just shook her head and reassured him that she found it more entertaining than disgusting.

The rest of the dinner time was spent with me asking about how their day was and Ace excitedly explaining most of the time answering, even though I was mostly asking rose. She laughed at the memories of their day since Ace was making jokes and happily telling me about all the coincidences that's been happening to him since he was too nervous to be taking her out on a date that was actually his first ever date to take a girl out on.

When it was time for clean up, I was being shoved into the living room by rose and Ace. Seeing them team up to keep me from cleaning after I cooked was actually nice. It was also nice to see them working together to clean up everything and wrap up the dishes so they don't go to waste. After they put everything away, they made their way back to see me sipping whiskey while watching them interact closely with each other.

There was no doubt that after last night, their feelings towards one another had blossomed. And after they took the whole day to get to know each other and have fun together, their chemistry both in and out of bed had actually grown. I was actually very happy to see that.

It only took a bit longer for me and rose to grow close because of her hesitation to let our relationship blossom without her sense of guilt towards her ex fiancé. With him out of the picture now, she was easily letting me and Ace into her life more. She wasn't holding herself back from indulging in this new relationship that all 3 of us were all going into without any knowledge or experience.

Even though we were all new to this trio relationship, one thing was clear. We all were ready to dive in head first, to see how great this relationship can be.

"Creep much" Ace snorts, jumping onto the opposite side of the couch I was on.

"Have you been sitting here, watching us, this entire time?" Rose ask while sitting between us.

"I like seeing the two of you having fun together. It makes me feel like it was a good choice to have all 3 of us together. It may have been a little weird for me to even think about this at first, but now I just feel like my life is complete" I respond, grabbing her small hand as she smiles before doing the same to Ace.

"I'm not good at the whole romantic words stuff but I agree with my brother. We've never been this close to the point where you're willing to share your woman with me. There's been many times where you used to criticize me about the way I've been going about with multiple women my whole life and I'd just make fun of you for actually looking for the right one and all that. But actually getting to know and have fun with the woman you have finally decided to be with for the long haul, I really am glad that you decided to share this amazing relationship experience with me. I've always thought I was never gonna be a one woman guy, but the both of you really have changed my whole perspective of my life" Ace voices out, avoiding our shocked glances which I knew was his way of wanting to keep his soft emotions intact.

Everyone in my family knew the real reason why Ace kept himself from ever falling in love. Even I used to have the same mindset as him when we were younger, but Ace had always taken everything he saw growing up to the heart. It wasn't like he was made of stone. Ace guarded his heart for many reasons, one of them being the fact that he didn't want to show his real emotions.

I just hoped that in time, he will let his walls down and tell our rose the real reason why 'Ace the playboy' had become the facade he put out as more of a defense mechanism rather than his true personality.
