Chapter 14 - HE KISSED ME...

MYA'S POV

I woke up to find my body closer to Lucio than I had left it before I fell asleep last night. Falling asleep wasn't easy. At first I was pretending to sleep until I heard heavy breathing from Lucio's side of the bed. It's not that I don't trust Lucio. I never slept with a man before so this is all new to me. I could feel his body heat on me. It feels so good. Lucio looks so peaceful while he sleep. The thought of the other women who shared this same bed popped up in my head and I suddenly felt a pang of envy yet slightly disgusted. He had sex with so many women, probably in the same spot I'm currently lying on. I slowly move away from him and the bed, quietly enough not to wake Lucio from his sleep.

I sneak back into my room to get clothes so I could use Lucio's bathroom. I got back to Lucio's room and I'm relieved to see that he's still asleep. I enter his bathroom and I'm instantly in awe. This house never ceases to amaze me. I thought the bathroom I had was gorgeous.

Lucio has about five showerheads in his bathroom plus a spa tub.

I'm enjoying Lucio's shower and suddenly all sorts of thoughts pop into my head. What if Lucio barges in here unannounced while I'm naked and wet and his eyes drools over my body through his shower glass. I don't think I would hide myself, the voice at the back of my head spoke. Now I regret locking the bathroom door. Is it wrong of me for thinking about having Lucio? I've never felt this kind of attraction for a man before. Maybe it's because Lucio makes me feel safe.

I think back on the deal he made with me. I could be going home sooner than I expected. All I have to do is pose as his girlfriend until his sister leaves and I could go home to my family. The thought of me going home is so exciting but….why do I feel like a part of me wants to stay. I quickly wash that thought out of my mind and down the shower drains then completed my bath.

Lucio must be up by now and I'm sure he would want his bathroom that I've been occupying for so long. I hope he doesn't get mad.

I make my way out to find Lucio sitting at the edge of his bed waiting till I was finished and 'oh my' he's shirtless. The guilt I had for making him wait quickly left and was replaced with lust. Gosh I feel hot…..! From the wave of heat that just passed through my body. Where the heck did that come from? I apologize as he makes his way to his bathroom, closing the door behind him. His face doesn't look angry nor annoyed but scruffy in a cute way. I don't think I would mind waking up to his scruffy face every morning. I need to force myself to stop lusting at Lucio but he's making it really hard not to.

Maybe I should leave the room and give Lucio some space to get ready for the day. I saw the guy shirtless and I'm getting hot flashes just thinking about it. It scares me to think about what would happen if I see Lucio naked and on top of that wet. I find myself imagining the water droplets running through his hair and rolling down his wet naked gorgeous chest and through his rock hard abs as they make their way further down to his OH MY! I WONDER WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.

I really need to stop. The thoughts are really driving me crazy. This is how women feel after spending one night with a man?

I make my way downstairs and into the kitchen to find Rosa cooking.

"Buongiorno!" I greeted Rosa before taking my now usual breakfast seat. Lucio would sit at the breakfast nook while I sit on a barstool at the kitchen island. My back would of course be facing Lucio and with the morning I'm having I greatly appreciate that.

"Buongiorno!" I hear Lucio's sister spoke and her brother just steps behind her. She makes her way over to me and to my surprise pulls me into a tightly squeezed hug. I try to hide my surprise with a smile but I knew she felt my discomfort.

"I'm sorry. I'm a hugger and besides you're my new sister so you will grow accustom to me in no time."

For Italians Lucio and his sister speak English really well. Maybe better than I do.

"It's okay, I've never had a sister before either" I said.

"Oh my gosh! I love your accent, where are you from?" okay I wasn't prepared for questions. I look over to Lucio who's currently speaking with Rosa. His eyes met with mine and I'm glad he realized that I needed him. We haven't gone over how I am to talk with his sister. Should I leave out personal information? Tell the truth? Of course I cannot tell the truth. So what do I say?

"I'm from the Caribbean but I've been living here in Italy for a little under a year", nice, I applaud myself.

"Nice, I've always wanted to visit the Caribbean islands. The sea, the sand, the sun. Which part of the Caribbean?"

Oh sh*t…

"Um…" I stumble on my words.

"Gianna we must leave now, I'm already late for work" Lucio came at my side and to my rescue. Phew!

"We'll continue our talk later Mya, we can have a girls night!" Gianna said while getting herself a mug of coffee.

I mumbled a thank you to Lucio.

Gianna is standing at the doorway waiting for Lucio. I look up to find him staring down at me. Is there something on my face…? I look over to Gianna staring at us as if she's expecting something. I turn back to Lucio to find him slowly leaning towards me. Is he going to? Oh boy… I thought to myself. And in that instance I felt Lucio's lips on mine. And if that wasn't enough his hand was under my chin, pulling my face closer to his. Our lips are pressed against each other, slightly moving.

After what felt like a really long time he pulls away and I open my eyes, when did I even close them, to find his eyes still concentrated on my lips.

"AWE!!!" we hear Gianna gushed. I try to hide my embarrassment and turn away from Lucio's stare. In unison he does the same.

"Okay lets go," Lucio spoke then they both left.
