Outta Here
I’m still gloomy as we return to the hall and I start feeling suffocating every second I hear her laughter a few meters away from me.
Suddenly, I feel sick to my stomach and panic flows through me.
I can’t spot Giovanni anywhere and even if I’m dying to see him, I’m not quite sure I could face him right now.
Feeling panicky, I step to the huge bear of a man who is standing lonely in the crowd as he seems to be keeping an eye on his princess as he calls her.
“Vla- Vlad,” I call him lowly, clearing my throat. “Sorry, maybe I could ask you to take me home? I wouldn’t know if I can’t get a taxi here.”
DanielleBreaking into my best friend’s apartment as she doesn’t answer to the ringing of the doorbell surely isn’t one of the most glorious moments in my life. Also, it would be quite funny if someone would actually call the police because of me. They would find a pathetically sobbing woman, eating ice cream while watching an old telenovela in stained clothes. Talk about old cat lady. I shoot a text to Loredana, telling her that I got in and would pay for the damaged lock, even if it was going to take me a few months as I was officially broke. How, you may ask? As the bitch got into the shower, I packed as fast as lightning and took the first key I got hold of to drive here. My subconscious chose a hell of a car. A fast, sporty and shiny one, and I kept the window down, not caring how the wind was messing up my hair while I turned the music up and raced through the town. And how funny it would have been if this had gotten me arrested. He would have had a hell of a time by pi
Giovanni“Can you put extra Mascarpone on it, please? Thank you.” Francesco smiles at me as he scoops up another few flakes of the cheesy topping. “She really loves that stuff,” I mumble as I direct my gaze back onto my phone. I’m currently waiting in a pizzeria for our pizzas to be prepared as I had sneaked out to buy us lunch, thinking she would love that. But actually, I wasn’t in the mood to even get out of the house at all as she was acting strange. I couldn’t wait for her to finally tell me what had happened and as I had spotted her mother taking part in the dinner as well, I was afraid that she said or even did something that might hurt her. She is such a stubborn woman, but when it comes to such things, she crumbles like a house made out of leaves. As soon as I will find out who ruined her mood, I will go on a rampage for real. And not only because I had planned to confess my feelings for her in the luxury suite I had booked before fucking her senseless in the whirlpool.
GiovanniAs I’m about to grab her to cage her beneath me on the couch, she struggles fiercely, getting me to loosen my grip. She wriggles out of my hold and sprints further into the apartment. I follow her with steady steps and hear a door slam close. Arrived at what I remember to be the bathroom, I knock on the door. “Danielle? Open the door.” “No!” Her muffled voice doesn’t sound as if she is having fun. “Come on, open it. I just want to talk to you,” I beg her, lowering my voice. “I said, no. Go away!” I take a deep breath, leaning against the door frame “Do you really want me to go away? I will if you ask me to!” She remains silent, and I wait another few heartbeats as I add, “If you want me to go away now, I’ll leave you alone. As soon as you want to talk you can call me and I will come back. But if you tell me to leave I’ll leave.” I knock again as if I needed to remind her that I was still outside the door. It would be easy for me to tear that damn thing down and thro
GiovanniI’m absorbed by the movement of her fingers as she plays with mine.We are lying in some small bed in an overly girly guest room of Loredana’s apartment.I remember already spending one or two nights here as I was totally wasted and turned up at the door devastated.She would put me in this room to sleep it off before serving me the strongest coffee I ever had the pleasure of tasting, together with a mercilessly hurtful speech about me being an asshole to make Danielle suffer like this when I couldn't stand it either.The fact that I now made love to Danielle in this very room, is some kind of beautiful redemption.Danielle is lying on my chest
Danielle I’m starting to get fed up by waking up with puffy eyes. I wake up in our bed. Our bed. But I find it empty. Checking my phone on the nightstand, I find a text waiting for me.Giovanni: God morning, my Love, I was called into work early today. I’m sorry but I’ll make up for it tonight.Danielle: Can’t wait!I’m still wearing my stained clothes from yesterday, and am therefore still embarassingly covered in ice cream. Groaning, I get up to take a shower before changing into a light summer dress. As I step out of the bedroom in a good mood, I find Natalina cleaning in the living room and I greet her with a smile. “Good morning Natalina, I missed you! How was your free weekend?”“Oh, it was beautiful. We went to the beach with the kids,” she explains happily. “Awesome. Next time take us with you,” I gush, making her laugh. “I would love that. It would be so nice to have you spending some fun hours at the beach with us.” Sighing dreamily, she starts collecting her cleani
Danielle My heart twists in my chest as he kisses me, pressing me into the mattress.I move my hands on his back and back up into his hair, enjoying feeling his muscles flex as he moves on me. Wrapping my legs around his body, I get him to melt into me even more.I throw my head back, baring my neck to him, and, luckily, he accepts my invitation.As he nibbles at my skin, I moan lowly, enjoying the friction his lips create. “I need something from you first.” His deep voice vibrates through me, heating up my body. “Three little magic words.” I groan, clasping his hair. “Why do you always have to tease me like this?” “Danielle,” he growls, making me giggle as I squirm beneath him. He detaches himself from me to look me straight in the eye, and I feel my cheeks heat up. Oh, this is embarrassing. “Please, fuck me,” I beg lowly and am confused as he frowns. Looking back and forth between his eyes, I ask, “What?” “As much as I love hearing you say that,” he sighs, closing his eyes
Danielle I walk up a set of stairs and over the terrace, the gravel crunching under my feet. As I step up to the round table in white marble, the man sitting at it in a nice suit already stands up to welcome me with open arms. “Good morning, Danielle. How are you?”“Zio Marco,” I smile as I take my last steps at a quicker pace to walk into his hug. “I’m doing perfectly fine, thank you. How are you?” He gestures to me to sit down, and I take my seat in front of him. “Ah, you know how it is. Always too many things to do and too little time.”“You have to take a few breaks for yourself, Zio. It’s important that you take care of your health. I don’t want Zia Gigia to worry too much, and we surely don’t want her to be angry at you.” A maid hands me a glass of lemonade, and I thank her before she deposits a plate of Taralli onto the table and serves my uncle his espresso. “Thank you, Evelina.” He laughs as he stirs his black coffee with his small spoon and clinks it against the cup.
DanielleMy heart beats into my throat as I see his lost gaze refocus, and a sly grin grows on his lips. “Well played. You totally fucked me over.” “That’s.. That’s…” I try to form a coherent sentence, as instead of being angry, he seems to be overly enthusiastic. This is bad. I didn’t think this through. “That’s because you lied to me for the last five years,” I stutter lightly as I raise my chin, wanting to appear confident. “You deserved it.” He stays quiet and watches me with a mischievous glint in his eyes as his grin grows. Well, fuck. I laugh as he steps closer, and I lift my finger as if I could stop him. “No, you have to stop. What are you doing?” “What do you mean ‘what are you doing?’? We are playing, right?” he asks, looking like a boy in a toy store. Acknowledging that I have fucked up, my body buzzes in excitement at discovering what he has planned out in his sick mind. And I’m totally sick in mine, too, as it seems. As suspected, he doesn‘t stop stepping clos
