“Let’s get something straight, Steph. You’re mine and mine alone. I’ve waited long enough, and I’m not sharing you. Ever! With anyone!”
“I was just kidding, Tarzan. Calm down.” I gave him a soft kiss on the lips. His lips were so sinful, I could feel my already soaked panties get even wetter with my arousal.
“I’m not kidding. In fact, I couldn’t be more serious.” Luca plopped me down on the incredible bed and went to retrieve something from the dresser. “I have something for you,” Luca said. He opened the top drawer and pulled out a small blue Tiffany’s box. When he came back to the bed, he went down on one knee.
“I had this big romantic moment planned in my head, but things never go as planned with you, Steph, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I won’t always be a chart topper, and someday I’ll write an album that will inevitably flop. I can’t promise you things will be easy when I’m at the top of my game or at the bottom. But I do know that you and I, we can get past whatever we come up against.”
I didn’t want the tears to come, but they came anyway, silently slipping down my face in pure raw emotion.
Luca opened the box and stunned me with a brilliant, jaw-dropping, square-cut diamond, surrounded with emeralds and set in a platinum band.
“Holy shit. Are you asking me to marry you?”
“Don’t ruin the surprise.” He took the ring with shaking fingers and slipped it onto my left hand. I brought my right hand to my mouth and tried to hold back the sobs.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted two things. To make music for a living and to marry my neighbor, Stephanie Wilson, pest that she is. Somehow, I already managed to make one of those dreams come true. But with my music, I wasn’t up against the most stubborn human on the planet. Would you make a guy’s dreams come true and say yes to marriage?”
He had his hand over his heart, and his eyes were glassy with tears.
I threw myself at Luca full force and knocked us both back onto the carpet. I kissed him fervently and tore at his wet shirt.
“I’m not done with the proposal, but should I take that as a yes?”
“Yes,” I said into the kiss as I undid his pants.
“I want to grow old with you. I want a house full of annoyingly cute kids who never leave us alone. I want to fall asleep to your beautiful face, and I want to wake up with you in my arms every morning. I don’t want to be anywhere if you aren’t there with me. I know you have to finish school, so I told the record company that after this tour, I want to record at home. I’ll build us a house with a studio, and we can get married right away or we can wait until you’re done with school. Whatever you want. Just say you’ll spend your life with me.” Luca finished quickly and yanked my shirt off, barely breaking our kiss in the process.
“Yes! Of course, yes!” I felt silly for doubting our love when it had always been the surest thing in my universe.
Luca grabbed me and swept me off my feet as he twirled me around. He placed feverish kisses along my face as he laughed victoriously. I loved hearing and seeing the joy emanate from him. I kissed his open mouth and slid my hand into his boxers and wrapped my fist around the base of his cock.
Luca set me back on the bed, and I tore his underwear down. Then, looking up at him without fear, I wrapped my lips around his cock and felt the silken skin in my mouth. He caressed me under my chin and helped to guide my mouth up and down his solid length. I took him as far back in my throat as I could handle without choking.
When I had the rhythm down on my own, Luca took his hands away, tipped his head back, and covered his face. He groaned in pleasure, and his noises spurred me on. I let my saliva run, and it helped me take him as deep as I could.
When I finally pulled away, his muscles were so tense, I could see the definition in his abdominals.
“Was that okay?”
“Jesus, Steph. That was earth-shattering.”
“Luca…” I looked up at him and whispered, “I’m still a virgin, I mean I haven’t—”
His balls were cinched up, and his beautiful face looked nearly pained. “I’ve never heard anything so sexy in my life.”
He moved onto the bed and cupped my breasts with his hands, pinching the nipples into darts. Then his mouth was on mine and his tongue caressed so deeply that it felt like he was giving me a preview to sex with his mouth. His hand came to explore between my legs, and I opened myself up to him.
