When we finally reached the car, Romano grabbed my arm, stopping me from getting out of the car."Wait a minute, princess." He said, reaching into his pocket and retrieving something.He handed it to me and leaned in to kiss me, which I gladly returned."You're adorable when you blush." He chuckled softly, placing another kiss on my lips. "I love you." He added."I love you too." I giggled.We then got into the car and drove back to our house in comfortable silence. Neither of us spoke a word for the rest of the way. I didn't mind though. The peacefulness and peace of the quiet night was completely calming me down.Once we pulled into the driveway, Romano parked the car. Without saying anything, he hopped out of the car and went around to open my door. When I finally climbed out, he led me up the front steps of our house and entered our apartment.Once we were inside, he immediately pulled me by my waist to him, pressing me against the wall and kissing me deeply. It felt as if nothing
He continued kissing me hungrily, unable to take his eyes off me. He then leaned forward and trailed tiny kisses down my jaw to my neck, kissing, licking and sucking my skin. I was so aroused I felt like exploding. He suddenly took his mouth away from my skin and stared down at me with hooded eyes. He began moving slowly. I felt his large member stretching me even farther, filling me completely. He was so big! My legs started shaking. I couldn't wait any longer."Romano!" I screamed, my voice trembling. He heard me and immediately picked up speed. He increased the pressure and stroked his length faster. With every stroke, I felt myself getting closer to ecstasy."Ahh!" I cried out, feeling my walls tighten around him. He increased the pace and increased the friction against my clit as well, sending waves of pleasure throughout my entire body. I bit down on my bottom lip to stop from screaming out. I wanted to hold back, to scream his name. But I couldn't. Every time he hit my sweet
I stared at him, unable to believe what I had just heard. I didn't expect Romano to say that. It was like he read my mind. He knew exactly what was running through my head."Do you mean it?" I breathed."Of course I do." He replied earnestly, nodding."Why?" I blurted. "Why now? After all this time?""Because I realized that I can't imagine my life without you anymore, and I never want to, and I never did." He explained calmly."But...are you sure? what about Romano? What if he finds out about us?" I asked, still uncertain."I already told him. There is nothing he can do about it. He knows that it's over. There will only be one woman in my heart."I smiled at him and grabbed his face, pulling him towards me and crashing my lips into his. He groaned and kissed me back, deepening the kiss as our tongues intertwined. Our bodies moved in unison as we explored each other's mouths, loving every inch of each other."Come." He murmured against my lips. He slid his hand underneath my back and
"Good morning." I replied cheerfully, stretching out again, and pressing my back against his firm chest."I have a surprise for you." He mumbled in my ear as he nuzzled the top of my head affectionately."What sort of surprise?" I wondered curiously, turning my head slightly so that I could look up at him.His eyes glittered mischievously as he gave me a teasing grin. He reached down toward the end of the bed and pulled something out of his pocket. When he held it up in front of me, a gasp escaped from my lips.It was the beautiful diamond bracelet he had bought me for my birthday. How come he hadn't given it to me sooner? I thought to myself while gazing up at him in awe. He bent forward and pressed a soft kiss to the tip of my nose."Happy birthday love." He whispered tenderly.I felt tears stinging my eyes as a huge lump began to form in my throat. I stared down at the beautiful bracelet in his hand and then back up at him. I threw my arms around his neck and hugged him fiercely, s
"Don't you care about your dad and his family?" I blurted out suddenly.He looked up at me, confused."Of course I do." He replied shortly."Then shouldn't you be doing something for them?" I pressed, narrowing my eyes slightly.He looked at me strangely for a moment before letting out a small, humourless laugh."You're right, you're absolutely right. There isn't anyone else who matters to me as much as you do." He replied, cupping my cheeks in his large hands."But, it's all just a matter of time. It'll happen eventually. We just need to be patient. And strong." He added, kissing my forehead lightly."Okay." I agreed hesitantly, biting my lip nervously.He sat down across from me, resting his elbows on the table and dropping his face in his hands, his hands running roughly through his messy curls.We stayed like that in silence for several minutes while we both processed the events of the day before."Hey love, why don't we try to get some more sleep for tonight? We can talk about to
The gates were ripped off the hinges and lay broken in the snow. A dark red stain stained the pristine white snow below. The front doors were hanging uselessly by their hinges. The house looked absolutely devastated. I walked inside warily, looking around for any sign of life. I frowned when I realized that there was nothing there. The house was silent and empty. I walked further into the empty hall, searching for some sort of clue as to where everyone had gone. After searching the entire house thoroughly, I came to the realization that no one was here. Where were the villagers? Did they escape? Or did they all die in that explosion that hit our village last night?Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice calling my name from upstairs. I ran up the staircase and entered my room. I gasped loudly when I saw the mess inside. I stood frozen in my spot as I took in the wreckage. Books and papers were scattered everywhere and there was a huge hole in the wall that must have been where the ceil
"Irish! Wake up! Hey wake up!" Something cold slapped my face, causing me to jolt awake. I blinked rapidly, struggling to focus. When my vision finally cleared, I realized that someone was poking me repeatedly in the ribs with a stick. I sat up quickly, rubbing my eyes."Hey! What are you doing?" I snapped angrily.My gaze fell upon Romano standing near the door of our bedroom."Sorry! Didn't mean to startle you." He apologies, holding up the stick defensively."Just put that down." I mumbled sleepily, falling back into bed.He glanced at me uncertainly. He knew that it would hurt me if he hurt me, so he put the stick away carefully and walked over to the wardrobe. I watched him rummage through it until he found something. He turned towards me and handed me a pair of boxers."Thanks." I murmured sleepily."Here. Put these on." He commanded, sitting down beside me and patting the empty space next to him.I complied. He picked up my discarded clothes and dropped them into the laundry b
I was just getting dressed when I heard a knock on my door. I assumed that it was Romano. However, when I opened the door to find Roman standing outside, wearing a black tuxedo shirt tucked into a dark blue vest, I couldn't help but feel confused."Roman..." I began uncertainly, "Did I forget something yesterday?"He shook his head."You forgot to text me last night. You left your phone upstairs and I was worried that you might get sick or something. So I called your aunt. She told me that you weren't home. I figured that something must have happened, so I drove here to look for you."I blinked. Did he drive over here because I texted him? I guess that was the reason why he was here, although I'm not entirely sure how I would have ended up answering his call if he didn't show up. I suppose that my mind wasn't functioning properly last night."Right. Sorry about that." I said apologetically.Romano shrugged."It's okay. I just got here anyway. Now, shall we go get ready?" He offered m
Today marks the first day back after what happened last week. A lot has changed since then. Since we've gotten married, my mother has completely stopped trying to convince me to marry her son, although it has been clear throughout the past weeks that she hates him. But she has also been very understanding towards Sergio, even if she hasn't accepted us yet.My father is currently living with us, as my brother had kicked him out of the apartment last week. He didn't seem very happy about it, especially since it meant that his boyfriend would have to give up their house to live with him. I didn't mind that much though. The less attention that I get from my family, the better.This morning, I decided to wake up early so that I could get some breakfast ready before everyone woke up. I quickly made myself breakfast and put it in a bowl for Sergio. I then proceeded to walk around our apartment getting ready for the day. I was brushing my teeth when the bathroom door burst open and Sergio ra
"Baby, you know that I won't do that ever again. Never. You know that I will always protect you. Always, always. Forever and ever." Sergio reassured me.I nodded in response."Do you remember when you said you needed a break?" I asked quietly."Yeah. Of course I do. Why? Are you feeling better now?" He asked me, rubbing circles on my back."Kind of, yeah." I replied shakily."Well, it's late and I think it's time for us both to sleep. Come on, let's get up and make some coffee so that we can get some rest." Sergio suggested.I reluctantly opened my eyes and slid out of the covers. I followed Sergio out of the room and we entered the kitchen. We poured ourselves two cups of coffee, drinking them gratefully. After putting the cups in the sink, we carried them over to the sofa and sat down."Do you want to talk about it?" Sergio asked me gently, taking my hand in his."Not really." I admitted. "Maybe later?"Sergio smiled at me reassuringly. I leaned forward and kissed him softly, trying
"Wait. What?" I interrupted. "When did that happen?! Why didn't you tell me that you were leaving? What about us? Where were we during those years? Did I know what you were doing? Why did you hide that from me? What happened between you and my brother?"Sergio closed his eyes."You know that it was my fault...you know that I didn't mean for him to become involved with you. It was my choice to leave you alone. But he insisted that you came back with me. That he loved you enough to be willing to sacrifice everything and everything. I tried to convince him that it was in his best interest to stay away. But he wouldn't listen. He was stubborn and refused to change his mind.""He convinced my father that you two were meant to be together. He told my father that you were perfect for each other and he was determined to get married sooner rather than later. That he would wait until you were both eighteen and that it would be worth it because he was sure you'd love him as much as he loved you.
For a few minutes, we just stared at each other, not saying a word. I decided that now was a good time as any to ask him about his relationship with Sergio."So, you and Sergio....?" I started hesitantly.Sergio looked up and stared at me for a few seconds before turning away, his expression unreadable."Yes, we're together." He replied. "But it won't work out." He added when he saw how shocked I looked. "We love each other, I know that. But you'll never be able to understand us like you do. You don't know everything about us. You've known us for all of a day.""How long have I been here?" I asked, not understanding why we were talking about this. Wasn't that supposed to be my question? I had the feeling that I already knew the answer."About seven days." Sergio replied calmly."Seven days?!" I yelled, surprised. "And you didn't think that it was important to tell me that I've been unconscious for seven days?""We thought you needed time to adjust. We wanted to give you some space to
Tears kept spilling from my eyes as I tried to run harder than ever before to catch up with them. Suddenly, I found myself at an empty street. I looked both ways to try and find any sign of the couple and I spotted a familiar figure sitting under a lamppost a little way ahead of me. I broke into a sprint and rushed towards him. As I approached, I began to realize that the man wasn't wearing a jacket, so I figured he must have been freezing.When I got close enough, I could see that he was looking straight ahead with his arms resting on his knees, completely unmoving. I slowly came to stand right next to him, hoping that he would acknowledge my presence. But, he didn't. His expression remained the same and I knew that he was ignoring me. For a second, I stood there, staring at him without moving, completely dumbstruck by what was happening."Are...Are you alright?" I whispered, afraid to make a sudden move lest he would snap out of whatever trance he was currently in.He didn't reply
"Not really. I don't know. I'll probably just hang out with the guys, but that might take a while." I answered."Okay. I'll pick you up at seven then." He said. "How does that sound?""Perfect." I said, smiling slightly. "I'll see you then.""See you then." He responded, hanging up.I stared at my phone for a few minutes longer. I knew there was nothing to worry about. He wouldn't come to pick me up if he knew something was bothering me. He was just being friendly. After a few moments though, I realized that it was already nine in the morning and that the time to wake up everyone else was approaching rapidly."Great. Now everyone else will wake up." I said with a sigh. I picked up my phone and dialled the number of the person who most definitely was not going to appreciate waking up this early. She answered almost immediately."Irish, I was expecting you to call earlier. Is everything OK?" She asked me."Yes, I'm fine. I just woke up and wanted to check if you were awake.""Ah yes. T
"What's so funny?" He asked, frowning at me."Nothing... I was just wondering why you're behaving like this." I said with a chuckle."I'm not behaving like anything." He protested."Oh please, Sergio, don't play dumb. You know exactly what I mean. I saw the way you looked at me." I told him.He looked up at me, puzzled."Look, Irish, it's not what you think. I didn't mean to stare at you, ok? It was an accident." He explained quickly.I shook my head. "You know perfectly well that you couldn't have meant to stare. Look, Sergio, you don't seem like yourself these days. You look more serious than ever before. And besides, there's no need for you to feel guilty. You didn't do anything wrong."He stared at me for a while longer, as if trying to find the right words to say."I know. Please. I am sorry, Irish. Can we start over? Forget what has happened." He pleaded earnestly.I sighed. "Okay. I forgive you, Sergio." I said, reaching across the table to touch his hand.He took my hand gentl
"Is it okay with you if we go out for dinner tonight?" Sergio suddenly asked, breaking the silence between us."Why wouldn't it be? That sounds awesome." I answered smiling. "What are your favourite restaurant?"He chuckled lightly at my enthusiasm, and then told me his favourite restaurant nearby. After ordering our meals, we started to discuss our plans for tonight. Although we hadn't talked in a long time and neither one of us was sure about what we wanted to do, we still decided to try to spend some time together. Since we weren't going to be able to talk about what we were going to say later, we decided to keep some of it simple. Just a few casual questions about each other's lives. Then after we finished our meal, we would decide where to go next and what we were planning to do for the rest of the night.It was nice spending time with Sergio again. After everything had happened the last time we spent time together, I had missed him so much. He was someone whom I missed dearly.
But it was hard when I could hear him chewing slowly, every movement accompanied with loud chewing noises which weren't exactly quiet, yet somehow they still managed to reach me. And when I looked up and looked into his beautiful brown eyes... I lost control. Every fiber of my body wanted to jump into his arms and run away from the awkward tension that was surrounding us. And I just couldn't seem to resist."Would you like more coffee, dear?" My mom asked.I snapped out of my thoughts and focused on the question that she had just asked."Yes please." I responded, giving her a weak smile.She nodded her head and made her way toward the kitchen. I heard Sergio move closer to me and stop right beside me. I remained silent while my mother prepared my coffee."You don't have to stay with us," I stated softly. "We're not forcing you to stay. I can handle things perfectly fine on my own. You don't have to stay."He didn't respond to my statement. Instead, he continued to watch me silently un
