It was 1 o'clock, Giovanni and Aaron had just taken a shower, yet again, and were getting ready to leave the house to go to Umberto's.
"I could stay in this little house forever," sighed Giovanni.
"Why? To spend the day making love?" joked Aaron.
"Yes, but also because I know you wouldn't want us to touch in front of others," Giovanni replied sadly.
"Aren't you tired of me? Haven't you grown bored? I thought you would get tired of me!" said Aaron.
"No, on the contrary, I want you even more now. I want to touch you, to kiss you, to just be near you. The thought of you by my side makes me happy."
Aaron looked at Giovanni seriously. "Giovanni, do you really love me?"
"Bambino, of course I love you. My love for you is beyond words. I love you more than anything in the world."
"What if we go out together?" Another one of Aaron's impulsive decisions.
"It would be an honor, Bambino."
"But Giovanni, I'm not ready to say that I love you, but I find it strange that we are intimate without officially being a couple."
"Bambino, I don't just want to be with you. I..." Their sisters interrupted them by calling them from the house. Olivia knew where her brother was as soon as Umberto had told them he didn't know.
Olivia took Giovanni, while Kira took Aaron with her.
"What's going on?" Aaron asked, surprised.
"Aaron, I slept with Olivia," his sister confessed, leaving Aaron speechless.
"Olivia? Giovanni's sister?" he exclaimed.
"Yes. And what about those marks on your body? On your neck, your arm, your... everywhere," his sister worried, suddenly realizing.
"Hey, don't panic, but... I also slept with Giovanni," Aaron admitted.
"I suspected as much," his sister affirmed. "Olivia had a hunch when Umberto mentioned that he didn't know where you were. And how was it?"
"It was the best night of my life," Aaron confessed.
"Oh my God. Dad is going to kill us!" Kira exclaimed, worried.
"No, he won't know anything," Aaron reassured her.
"Do you think the guards will reveal everything to our father when we return?" Kira worried.
"We will convince them to keep quiet," Aaron reassured.
"Don't forget the gorillas with us! They will spill everything to Dad when we get back."
"Maybe not. We will persuade them to stay silent."
"And you think they will listen to us?"
"Yes, we have no choice."
"No, brother, I have an idea. Let's send everyone back to Rome except Valery and Nikita, they won't suspect a thing." They laughed, convinced their plan would work.
"And what about Valery and Nikita? What do we do with them?" Aaron asked.
"They are together."
"What? They are together?"
"Yes. And we will use that to our advantage."
"Like...blackmail them?"
"Exactly. You got it."
"What do you think they could possibly be talking about?" Giovanni asked, watching their lively conversation from afar.
"I'm not sure, but it looks fun since they are laughing," Olivia replied. "But that's not the most important thing."
Giovanni looked at his sister, who seemed anxious and confused.
"I slept with Kira," she confessed.
"And so?" Giovanni replied.
"Is that all you have to say?" Olivia exclaimed, surprised.
"Everyone knows you're a lesbian," Giovanni said.
"But it's Kira. Aaron's sister. Gio!!" Olivia exclaimed, expressing her concern.
"Olivia, little sister, you're making a big deal out of this. I spent the entire night with Aaron last night. And this morning too. I savored every moment. So, do the same!" Giovanni retorted.
"But it's different. You love Aaron. But me and Olivia, we have no feelings for each other. But we did it."
"Olivia, you just need to enjoy the present moment, the sex, and the pleasure," Giovanni insisted.
"And you, Giovanni? Do you still desire him as much now that you've had him in your bed?" Olivia asked.
"Even more, even more. I've become addicted to every detail of him: his scent, his voice, his touch, his lips... I love him even more," Giovanni replied.
"Ah, you're doomed!" his sister joked.
"He's taken control of me. I'm in his hands. I'm really doomed," Giovanni laughed in return.
