CHIARA POV
It's only been a week and a few days since I met him, but so much has already happened. It's strange, but I can't deny that there's a sense of happiness within me when he expressed his intention to court me. However, amidst the fleeting joy, a nagging doubt crept into my mind - does he truly like me or is it just a ploy to make Rhian, his ex-girlfriend, jealous?
Sighing with a mix of frustration and confusion, I found myself in the guest room of Luis' condo, lying on the bed. I had retreated here after finishing breakfast, feeling utterly powerless and uncertain about what to do next. That's when I thought of calling Sanya for some much-needed guidance. I also sent a quick text to Sarah, informing her that I would come by tomorrow.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
The ringtone pierced through the silence, and I anxiously waited for Sanya to pick up. "Ara?!" her voice boomed through the phone, as lively and vibrant as ever.
"You don't have to shout!" I pleaded, my voice filled with exasperation.
"Do you still plan on going back home? I swung by your boutique earlier, but you were nowhere to be found. Don't tell me you're on another impromptu vacation, because I won't buy it. Wait, don't tell me you and Maximo are now living together?!" Sanya's words came rushing out, as if there was no end to her stream of consciousness.
"I like him," I blurted out, avoiding her barrage of questions.
"Ahhh!!! So I was right! And what about the dare?" she asked, excitement dripping from her voice.
"Of course, even though I lost the dare I won't go back to Xander, especially since he seems to be in a relationship," I responded firmly.
"What? But as far as I know, he's single," Sanya countered, sounding genuinely confused.
"I saw him with someone," I revealed, my voice tinged with a hint of sadness.
"Ah!! You saw him with someone? Where? How can you be sure it's his girlfriend?" Sanya prodded, her curiosity getting the best of her.
"I don't know, just bye!" I hastily ended the call, not wanting to delve further into the details. Thankfully, Sanya didn't call back to complain, giving me a moment of respite from her incessant chatter.
Lost in my thoughts, I pondered the uncertain future between Luis and me. I let out another sigh and decided that perhaps talking to him directly would bring some clarity. With that resolve, I got up from the bed and made my way to his room.
"Luis?" I called out as I softly knocked on the door, hoping to find solace in his presence. There was no response, so I cautiously opened the door, only to find an empty room. Curiosity got the better of me, and I heard faint sounds coming from the bathroom. I approached slowly, peering through the slightly open door, only to be met with an unexpected sight - Luis naked, taking a bath.
"Ahh!!" My immediate reaction was to turn away, shielding my face with both of my hands. Suddenly, me giving Luis a head come to my mind. OMG!!! Am I daydreaming?!
"Mia?" A voice called out to me, jolting me back to reality. Luis stood beside me, his hand gently resting on my shoulder. The embarrassment flooded over me as I blurted out the inappropriate words that had filled my mind.
"Ah, blowjob!" I exclaimed, immediately covering my mouth in shock at what had just escaped my lips. Mortified, I couldn't believe I had said such a thing. I desperately wished for the ground to open up and swallow me whole. How had my brain betrayed me like this?
"Do you remember?" Confusion washed over me as Luis asked if I remembered something, and I struggled to grasp his meaning. What was he talking about? It was then that he clarified his question, referring to the mind-blowing experience I had apparently given him the night before. "Do you remember now that you gave me a mind blowing blowjob last night?! "The shock hit me like a tidal wave, leaving me utterly dumbfounded.
"I...did what?!" I stammered, my mind reeling at the revelation. Had I truly engaged in such an intimate act? The pieces started to fall into place, and the reality began to sink in. It wasn't just a dream or a figment of my imagination. I had actually done it. The overwhelming weight of it all drained my strength, and darkness clouded my vision.
In the midst of my confusion, I could faintly hear Luis's voice calling out to me.
MAXIMO POV
As I watched Mia lost consciousness, worry washed over me. In a split second, I rushed towards her to catch her before she fell. With gentle urgency, I gathered her fragile body into my arms, cradling her close to my chest.I carried Mia towards the bed. With utmost tenderness, I laid Mia down on the soft mattress.
CHIARA POV
As I slowly opened my eyes, confusion washed over me as I found myself lying on Luis' bed. A wave of disorientation swept through me as I tried to gather my thoughts. How did I end up here? What happened? And then, it hit me like a sudden jolt of electricity. Everything came rushing back, the memories flooding my mind. Oh my goodness, did I really do that? I winced slightly as I noticed a slight ache in my jaw, a physical reminder of the events that unfolded earlier.
Glancing out of the window, I realized that the sky was dark and the night had already descended upon us. I quickly checked the time and my eyes widened in surprise. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. How did time slip away from me so fast? There was a sense of urgency creeping in, urging me to get out of bed and figure out what to do next. But before I could make a move, my eyes drifted towards the table nearby, where a piece of paper caught my attention.
Curiosity piqued, I reached out and picked up the paper, scanning the words hastily written on it. "Don't look for me, I'm going to work - Luis." The message sent a jolt of mixed emotions through me. Confusion mingled with a tinge of disappointment, wondering why Luis had left without a word. Nevertheless, I respected his decision and understood that he must have had important obligations to attend to.
Feeling a pang of hunger, I decided to distract myself by cooking dinner. After spending some time in the kitchen, the aroma of freshly prepared food filled the air. Satisfied with my culinary efforts, I made my way to the living room and sank into the plush comfort of the sofa. As I lay there, my mind still processing the recent events, the door suddenly swung open, revealing a tired-looking Luis, still dressed in his business attire.
Surprise flickered across my face as I watched him enter the room. Our eyes met, and I could sense a mixture of relief and weariness in his gaze. In that moment, I realized that his absence was not deliberate or meant to cause me any distress. He had likely been caught up with work and had rushed back home as soon as he could. A gentle smile graced my lips as I welcomed him back, silently acknowledging the challenges he must have faced throughout the day. We may have had our own individual journeys and responsibilities, but together, we would navigate through it all, supporting each other along the way.
"Have you had dinner yet? I've cooked so we can eat together," I said with a warm smile, Luis looked up at me, his expression softening as he realized what I had done for him.
"Not yet, let me get changed first," he replied, kissing me gently on the cheek before making his way back to his room.
As I watched him disappear behind the door, a sense of contentment washed over me. There was a part of me that wished we could always be like this, spending time together, cooking and eating meals with accompany of each other. A mischievous thought crossed my mind, wondering if I should seduce him later. I couldn't help but smile at the idea.
I quickly finished up the preparations for dinner, feeling the warmth emanating from the newly cooked food. Suddenly, I felt two arms wrap around my waist from behind, and I turned to see Luis standing there, his presence enveloping me. "Sorry if I'll let you do that to me last night," he apologized softly, his voice full of regret.
I faced him, his arms still wrapped around me, and assured him that there was no need to apologize. "We're both drunk and I enjoyed it, so you don't need to be sorry," I said, planting a light kiss on his lips. My heart swelled with affection as I gazed into his eyes, realizing how much I adored this man.
"Let's eat and maybe what else I can do for you," Luis suggested with a wink, causing my cheeks to flush with desire. I just shook my head, unable to respond as a wave of anticipation rolled over me. We sat down to eat, relishing the flavors of the food. After we finished our meal, I excused myself to take a shower, feeling a little sticky from the preparation of the meal.
As I stepped out of the shower, I noticed that I didn't bring any clothes with me. But that didn't bother me, since I knew I could wear Luis's clothes. And why not? I had nothing to hide from him. I put on one of his shirts and boxers, feeling comfortable and carefree. I could feel myself getting excited as I planned something special for him that evening.
And so, I left the bathroom with a twinkle in my eye, feeling ready to surprise my dear Luis.
