Chapter 34
Author's note: For all my Indian readers, I was listening to the song "Ang laga de" for the second half of the chapter :P
After a full day at the beach, Daisy's skin was golden tan. She dressed in the red wrap dress she had shown Luca and slipped on a pair of simple white sneakers. Her hair had turned lighter after being out in the sun for so long. She brushed it out and tucked the long strands behind her ears.
"Come on, big guy," Daisy said as she picked Theo up from his crib. "Let's go see what Carla is doing. Are you going to be a good boy for Carla?"
Theo, not understanding anything his mother was saying, smiled. He too had gotten tan. Luca dug him a kiddy pool in the sand and let him roll around in it for hours. After a belly full of strawberries and a nice tan, the little boy was sure to sleep through the night like a rock.
"Mama will be back soon," Daisy pushed back Theo's dark hair and kissed his forehead. "And then tomorrow we go to church with daddy and zia and nonna and we get more strawberries. Yeah?"
Theo laughed as Daisy shook him on her hips and tickled his tummy.
"Come on, let's go," Daisy kissed Theo's chubby cheeks. "Let's go see what Carla is doing."
Grabbing the little boy's favorite blanket, Daisy made her way downstairs. Gia was the first to look up as they entered the living room.
"My baby!" She squealed, holding her arms out towards Theo.
"Uh-ha," Daisy rolled her eyes. "Your baby."
"Come on, my darling," Gia wiggled her fingers as Theo practically threw himself out of Daisy's arms and reached towards his aunt. Daisy stepped forward to lower him onto Gia's lap.
"He had his dinner already," Daisy said. "He should knock out in a few."
"I'm surprised he's not asleep already," Gia said. "He was going crazy at the beach."
"He took a nap on Luca's lap on the way back," Daisy said.
"He wasn't in his carseat?" Carla arched her brow.
"Take it up with Luca," Daisy held up her hands. "I keep telling him to leave Theo in the car seat but every time he starts fussing, Luca just pulls him out."
"That's not safe," Carla frowned. "And Theo needs to get used to sitting in the car seat."
"Tell that to Luca," Daisy sighed. "He gives into all of Theo's tantrums."
Just then, Luca's voice called out from the front door.
"Daisy!"
"Coming," Daisy called back.
"Where are you guys going?" Gia asked as Theo grabbed her face.
"Luca's friends invited us out to dinner," Daisy said.
"Oh that sounds fun," Gia smiled. "Say hi to Jimmy for me. I haven't seen him in so long."
"Will d-"
"Daisy!"
"Oh my god!" Daisy stomped her feet. "Hold on!"
"Go before he starts throwing a tantrum," Carla said. "Have a good time. Don't worry about Theo."
"Thank you," Daisy said before leaning down to give her baby one last kiss. "Bye, my sweet boy."
"Daisy, let's go!"
"I'm going to kill him," Daisy said, looking at Gia. "Like actually commit murder."
"Just go!" Gia pushed her away.
Annoyed. Daisy walked into the foyer with a deep scowl on her face.
"What?" She demanded. "What is it? Who died?"
"Let's go," Luca said, lowering his voice to a civilized tone. "We're late."
There were more words Daisy wanted to throw at him. She wanted to remind him they were running late because he insisted on taking the longest shower in the history of Del Mare. But as her eyes moved up Luca's form, the words melted into a puddle.
Daisy had never seen Luca in anything beside a suit or a dress shirt. She loved all his button downs, ties and blazers. But looking at him in jeans and a simple black t-shirt, she began to realized her eyes were being seriously deprived of wonderful and mouth watering sights. She couldn't look away from him as he adjusted the watch on his wrist and then ran a hand through his thick dark hair.
"What?" Luca asked, noticing the way Daisy stood staring at him like a deer in headlights.
"Um..." Daisy bit down in her bottom lip to keep herself from blushing and giggling. "You look...different."
"Okay," Luca said in confusion.
"What happened to your suits?"
"I'm meeting my friends for dinner," Luca rolled his eyes. "I'm not going to wear a suit."
"We should have dinner with your friends every day," Daisy stepped forward.
"Yeah?" Luca grinned, seeing how her eyes lowered to his arms and then back up to his lips.
"You look really good," Daisy leaned forward as Luca wrapped her waist to keep her from falling.
"So do you," he said, kissing her forehead. "I like the tan on you. And the dress."
"You don't miss the bikini?"
"I'll be dreaming about that tonight actually," Luca laughed. "And you knew exactly what you were doing when you knelt down on the wet sand, didn't you?"
"I don't know what you're talking about," Daisy shook her head.
"You don't remember?" Luca moved his hand under Daisy's short dress and squeezed her ass. "You don't remember bending over in front of me in that teeny tiny string bikini?"
"Maybe we need a replay," Daisy laughed.
"You had me fighting the lord for self control out there today," Luca teased. "Do you know how close I came to saying fuck it and throwing you over my shoulder and taking you into one of those caves?"
"All I'm hearing is that I should wear bikinis more," Daisy laughed.
"You should," Luca said. "Now let's go."
Taking her hand, Luca walked out to the driveway and opened the car door for Daisy. He quickly made his way over to the driver's seat and pulled out into the street. Daisy adjusted her hair and then the necklace around her neck before settling back down and looking over at Luca.
"Are you okay?" She asked. "You didn't seem that excited to see your friends earlier."
"I'm fine," Luca lied.
He didn't know how to tell Daisy he was worried his friends might bring up Stella. They had all grown up together and there was so much history between all of them.
"What is it?" Daisy asked, not buying Luca's answer. "You can tell me."
Luca shrugged, "My friends....they...they're too much sometimes."
"How so?"
"Well for starters, Jimmy will blatantly hit on you to piss me off," Luca said. "Emma can be a bit rude and Maryella can never read the room."
"So they're normal people," Daisy said.
"That's not normal," Luca shook his head, remembering how much Stella disliked them.
"Every friend group has people like that," Daisy said.
"I'm sorry in advance if any of them say something to upset you," Luca looked over towards Daisy and took her hand. "They're very childish."
"It'll be fine," Daisy assured him.
Luca stared at her for a few minutes as his chest began to tighten. The soft smile on her lips pulled at his heart strings as words began to form on his tongue.
I love you, he thought to himself. So fuckin' much. It consumes me.
"Daisy, I -" Luca began as Daisy lifted her lashes and looked towards him.
Fuck, Luca shut his mouth as he remember how those eyes looked the day Theo was born. His chest tightened and the air in his lungs began to heat up like steam.
"Yes?" Daisy waited, wondering why he was staring at her.
"I appreciate you."
"Oo-kay," Daisy laughed. "I appreciate you too, Luca."
With a tight squeeze of her hand, Luca turned away and focused on the short drive. He could still feel the tension on his shoulders as they parked and made their way towards the outdoor restaurant under the string lights and hanging flower pots. Jimmy was the first to spot them. He stood up and cleared his throat to make a big announcement.
"Ladies and gentleman," he hollered in his loud obnoxious voice. "Put your hands together for the newly weds, Mr. and Mrs. Silvano!"
Everyone at the table began to cheer and clap. The others sitting nearby looked over and joined in when they noticed it was Luca with his wife.
"Was that necessary?" Luca asked as Jimmy walked up to them and threw his arms around his friend.
"I would have been the DJ at your wedding if you had invited me," Jimmy said. "But forget you."
Daisy's brows shot up as the man turned towards her and whistled.
"Well, god damn, mama!"
"Watch it," Luca warned, taking Daisy's hand and walking towards the table.
"Oh my god!" Maryella, a pretty brunette with a round face and big eyes, got up from her seat and hurried over to throw her arms around Daisy. "I can not believe you're real."
"No, I'm real," Daisy laughed. "I'm not Luca's imagination."
"Oh please," Emma rolled her eyes as she walked over to join them. "As if he has the imagination to dream you up. Hi, darling. I'm Emma."
"Daisy," Daisy stepped forward to kiss their cheeks. "So nice to meet you."
"Look at you!" Maryella moved onto Luca as she poked his chest and threw her arms around his neck. "Where's the baby?"
"I'm not going to bring him around you idiots," Luca snorted.
"We'll be horrible influences on him," Tony, Emma's husband, joked. "Hello, Daisy. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"It's so nice to meet all of you," Daisy said. "I really thought Luca didn't have any friends when we first met."
"Oh! How did you meet?" Maryella went back to Daisy's side. "What's the story?"
"Let her sit, Mary," Emma said. "Come on. Another round of drinks?"
"Oh yes please," Daisy said.
"No, thanks," Luca shook his head.
"I see you're still fun at parties," Emma said.
"That's fine," Daisy laughed. "I can drink for the both of us."
Jimmy looked at Luca, "I think I'm falling in love with your wife."
"Fuck off," Luca shook of his hand and went to go grab the seat beside Daisy before Jimmy could.
"Tell us everything," Maryella said, taking the seat to Daisy's right. "How did you two meet?"
"Well, I went to school with Gia," Daisy began. "She's my best friend."
"How is Gia?" Emma asked from across the table. "Still ditzy and shy?"
Daisy's brows furrowed slightly, "She's in law school. She's great."
"Oh wow," Maryella cooed. "That's so sweet. She's always been very bright. So back to the story! How did he ask you out?"
"Um..." Daisy looked towards Luca for help and laughed. "How did you ask me out?"
"I asked her out for coffee," Luca said, picking up the menu.
"How did he propose?" Maryella's eyes widened. "Show me the ring!"
As Daisy held up her hand and laughed at the woman's excitement, Emma shook her head at her friend's giddiness.
"Tell us about yourself, Daisy," She said. "Who is Mrs. Silvano?"
"There's not much to tell," Daisy shrugged. "I grew up in New York. Went to school there for a few before moving to California with Luca. I finished my degree there right before Theo was born and now I work with Luca at his company as the head of design."
"Aww, Theo," Maryella placed her hands over her heart. "I'm sorry. I'm just very emotional. I never thought I would get to meet Luca's wife or children."
"Why?" Daisy asked.
"Well..." Maryella's eyes shifted towards Luca. She watched him slightly shake his head over Daisy's shoulder.
"Because he's so unromantic," Emma jumped in. "He's a party pooper. Always was."
"Tell me more," Daisy said. "I want to know all about young Luca."
"Oh!" Jimmy spoke up as Tony shook his head laughing. "Brace yourself, princess. You ain't ready for this one."
"Jimmy-"
"No, no," Daisy stopped Luca. "I want to hear this."
"My man here used to be the fastest racer in town," Tony said.
"He even beat the other racers from a few towns over whenever they came by," Jimmy added.
"Racer?" Daisy arched her brow.
"Did he show you his motorcycle?" Emma asked.
"No," Daisy looked at Luca. "I only saw the helmet."
"Luca and Tony used to race all the time growing up," Emma said. "It was stupid but it was a big deal for them."
"The girls loved it," Jimmy said. "You don't count, Em, because we all know you're the devil in disguise."
"I wasn't the only one who didn't like it," Emma snorted. "Remind me again why Luca stopped?"
Daisy felt the shift around the table like a cold breeze. Everyone avoided eye contact as Luca leaned back in his seat and placed his hand on her back. He began to gently rub her back as Jimmy picked up his drink and took a sip.
"How did Luca propose?" Maryella quickly broke the silence before things got awkward.
"In a bookstore," Daisy said.
"No, at the lake," Luca said.
"You gave me the ring at the bookstore," Daisy looked at him and laughed.
"I asked you to marry me at the lake," Luca said.
"No, you asked me to marry you when we were in Ohio," Daisy paused. "You didn't ask. You demanded I marry you."
"Demanded?" Maryella arched her brow. "Luca!"
"He told me he would marry someone else if I didn't say yes," Daisy said as Luca rolled his eyes.
"She was being stubborn," he added.
"Was this before or after you got pregnant?" Emma asked.
"After," Daisy said.
"So you got pregnant and then he asked you to marry him. Makes sense why he would demand it," the girl said. "Luca is very old school. I don't think he would have wanted kids out of wedlock."
"Maybe," Daisy looked at her girl with her sharp eyes. "But he didn't have any problems making one out of wedlock."
"Hm," Emma smiled but it didn't match the look in her eyes.
"How was the wedding?" Maryella asked.
"We didn't ha-" Luca began but Daisy stopped him. She could still feel Emma staring at her.
"It was amazing," Daisy said. "It was like a fairytale. I never felt more beautiful and Luca never looked more handsome. Well, maybe except tonight."
"You were pregnant at that time right?" Emma asked. "At your wedding? Did you wear white?"
"She was a vision in white," Luca's eyes hardened as he stared at Emma, not liking how she spoke to his wife. "And yes, she was pregnant and I think that made it even better. I married her knowing my family was complete."
"Oh my god!" Maryella squealed. "Did Luca just say something romantic?"
"He has his moments," Daisy said, leaning into her husband as Luca draped his arm behind her chair and moved her closer to kiss her.
"You guys have no idea how happy I am to see you two like this," Maryella said. "I always wanted the best for Luca. He was always so kind and helpful. Did he tell you that in high school he beat up my ex-boyfriend once?"
"No," Daisy shook her head.
"It's a long story but my ex was toxic as hell," Maryella rolled her eyes. "Luca saw him grabbing my arm and jerking me around and the next thing I knew, he was pinning David down to the ground and just going to town on him with his fists."
Daisy looked over at Luca, knowing very well about the abuse his mother had endured from Angelo. Her heart softened as she took his hand and placed a long kiss upon it.
"David never came near me ever again," Maryella added.
"Good," Daisy said. "He deserved that."
"Jimmy told me you have a baby now," Luca sat up slowly and looked over at the girl holding his wife's hand.
"I have a baby now?" Maryella arched her brow. "That's what he told you?"
"Yeah," Daisy looked over at Jimmy who was grinning from ear to ear as if waiting for everyone to get the joke.
"Yes," Maryella sighed. "I have a beautiful baby girl. Her name is Esme. Esme Castella."
Luca's head snapped up at once. His eyes began to bounce back and forth between Jimmy and Maryella as Jimmy began to howl with laughter.
"What the fuck?" Luca laughed, standing up and walking over to Jimmy. Daisy watched them hug each other as Maryella shook her head. "Congratulations!"
"Thank you, thank you," Jimmy said. "Now you can relax. I will not be trying to steal your wife. I have one of my own now."
"When did this happen?"
"About two years ago," Maryella said. "We called you many times to invite you to the wedding."
"I'm sorry," Luca said with sincerity in his eyes. "Had I kn-"
"Relax," Jimmy patted his shoulder. "It's fine."
"Wow," Luca laughed. "You two, huh? I would have never guessed."
"Maryella Castella," Maryella snorted. "It almost didn't happen because of his last name."
"Did he want to name Esma Ella?" Tony asked.
"Don't get me started!" Maryella picked up her fork and waved it towards her husband.
"This is wonderful, guys," Luca said. "I'm really happy for you two."
"Thank you," Maryella smiled.
"Look at us," Tony held up his drink. "All married and settled. Who would have thought?"
"To many years of love," Jimmy said.
"Cheers," everyone around the table raised their drinks.
Daisy leaned in closer to Luca as the drinks began to flow and the conversation continued. She laughed her heart out hearing the stories of teenage Luca as he held her in his arms and kissed her bare shoulders. Her cheeks were flushed and eyes wet with tears from laughing so hard. Maryella and her bonded right away and after a rocky start, even Emma warmed up to Daisy.
"I am so happy we did this tonight," Maryella said as she followed Daisy and Emma into the ladies room after dinner. "Daisy, we love you. And I'm so glad Luca found you. You two deserve all the happiness."
"Thank you," Daisy said, feeling her heart swell. "You and Jimmy are goals! He's too funny and you're too sweet."
"I have to be honest," Emma spoke up from the sink. "I was nervous about meeting you tonight."
"Why?" Daisy asked.
"Well..." Maryella hesitated. "Luca's last...girlfriend? She wasn't the nicest."
"Are you talking about Stella?" Daisy asked, feeling her heart sink a bit.
"So you know about her?" Maryella asked.
"Yes," Daisy looked at the two women.
"See, I told you he wouldn't keep something like that from her," Emma said to Maryella.
"Oh thank god he told you," Maryella let out a dramatic sigh. "Yeah, she was a bitch. I shouldn't speak ill of the dead but my god was she bad for Luca."
"What do you mean?" Daisy asked. "Everyone loved her. Gia says she was amazing."
"Everyone loves the popular girl," Emma rolled her eyes. "Even when she ruins your life."
"Stella was nice when she wanted to be," Maryella said. "She was a real pain. Very stuck up and high maintenance. She didn't like us very much and they always fought whenever Luca hung out with us."
"Despite her good looks and her fabulous life, she had a lot of insecurities," Emma added. "She hated any girl who dared to look at Luca for too long. And if she ever thought you had a crush on him, she would make your life a living hell."
"But she was only a teenager," Daisy tried to reason. "Everyone is insecure at that age."
"No," Emma shook her head. "She was always like that. At their engagement party, she pulled me aside to tell me I had to stop texting or calling Luca now that they were engaged."
"When she found out about Luca saving me from my ex David, she broke up with him for two weeks," Maryella frowned. "Luca was so upset. He was going insane trying to get her back. She finally picked up his phone calls after I went to her and told her I saw him as a brother and nothing more."
"You're kidding..." Daisy couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"She was toxic," Emma said. "If Luca had married her, he would have killed himself."
"He stopped racing because of her," Maryella frowned. "He was so good. But of course, Ms. Stella didn't like it so she told him to pick. Her or racing."
"Hopefully tonight he will get to experience happiness again," Emma said, turning towards the mirror and pulling out her lipstick. "Tony and Jimmy arranged for bikes. For old time's sake, you know."
"They're racing?" Daisy's eyes widened.
"Only if Luca wants to," Emma finished applying her lipstick before holding it out towards Daisy.
"No, thank you," Daisy shook her head.
"I hope he agrees," Maryella said, washing her hand and shaking out the water in the sink. "It used to be so fun!"
"Daisy, you have to convince him," Emma said.
"He's not going to listen to me," Daisy rolled her eyes.
"Um, excuse me," Emma laughed. "Look at yourself. He couldn't keep his hands off of you all night. Tell him if he wins you'll fuck his brains out tonight."
"Oh, yeah," Maryella nodded. "That's how we made Esme. Jimmy won three races."
"You want baby number two?" Emma asked Daisy. "Put those tatas to work girl."
"Say yes," Maryella grabbed Daisy's hand. "Convince Luca."
"I'll try," Daisy said. "But he's a stubborn motherfucker."
"That's how they all are," Emma shook her head. "But they all bend to a good blow job. Am I right?"
"Right," Maryella nodded.
Daisy did not reply as they all made their way out of the bathroom and towards the guys. She spotted them standing around the motorcycles as Luca shook his head and refused to take the black helmet.
"Mrs. Silvano," Tony called out, seeing the girls coming back. "Talk to him. We arranged this for him."
"No, no," Luca shook his head.
"Oh come on," Daisy pouted, stepping up to stand beside Luca. "It'll be fun."
"No," Luca said firmly. "It's completely reckless."
"Just one round," Jimmy said, already putting on his helmet.
"I'll cheer for you," Daisy added.
"Cheer for me?" Luca laughed. "Sweetheart, you have to be on the bike with me."
"What?" Daisy asked.
"That's the rule," Emma said, taking the spare helmet from Tony. She climbed onto the back seat of the motorcycle and placed the helmet on her head.
"See," Luca said, turning towards Daisy. "We're not doing this."
"Pussy!" Jimmy yelled.
"Ay!" Maryella smacked her husband's head. Luckily, he was already wearing his helmet.
"No, thanks," Luca said. "We're going to head ho-"
"I want to," Daisy grabbed his hand.
"What?" Luca looked at her as if she was crazy. "No. Absolutely not."
Over Luca's shoulder, Daisy watched Emma mimicked the motions of a blow job.
"Let's go," Luca said, taking her hand. "We're going home."
"Wait," Daisy stepped closer and wrapped her arms around Luca's neck. The other couples looked away as she leaned closer towards him and began to whisper in his ear. "If you win the race, I'll let you do whatever you want to me tonight."
"Daisy, n-"
"I want to ride a winner tonight," Daisy angled her head to hide the view of her taking Luca's ear in between her teeth and gently biting down.
Luca's hands flashed to her waist as he squeezed her and groaned low and deep in his chest. He pulled back just enough to look at Daisy as she peered up at him through her thick lashes.
"No," he said with less conviction in his voice.
"Please..." Daisy pulled herself closer. "Daddy."
Daisy knew she had won as she felt Luca's muscles shift under her touch. His body tensed as his breathing changed as his fingers dug deeper into her hips, gripping the fabric of her dress.
"Fine," Luca said.
"Yay!" Daisy threw her arms up in the air.
Behind them, everyone else cheered as Luca sulked over to one of the black bikes and took the helmet. He helped Daisy onto the bike before placing the helmet over her head and making sure it bit as well as it could.
"Do not let go of me," he warned her. "Not even for a second. Understood?"
"Yes," Daisy nodded.
"And if it gets too much, tell me," Luca said. "We can stop anytime."
"You can tell me that tonight," Daisy teased. "But not right now."
"I can not believe I let you talk me into this," Luca muttered as he put on his own helmet and got on the bike. "Put your arms around me."
"Gladly," Daisy laughed as she lowered her windshield and wrapped her arms around Luca.
"Tighter," he said. "Move your legs closer."
"Emma and Maryella aren't doing that," Daisy observed.
"I don't care what they do," Luca said. "Just hold on as tight as possible."
"Okay, okay," Daisy tightly wrapped her arms around Luca.
"Alright, ready?" Jimmy called out.
Luca revved the handles of the motorcycle and let the engine roar to life. He leaned forward with Daisy following him as Tony began to count down.
"On your mark," He said loudly over the engines. "Get set....go!"
Jimmy was the first to take off. Daisy gasped as their bike jumped forward and the wind began to beat against their face. Her arms and legs naturally tightened around Luca as they flew past the cars and shops, leaving behind a mess of napkins that flew off the tables in the outdoor restaurants.
Jimmy's bike swerved through the street, dodging bumps on the road as they raced towards the church on top of the hill. Daisy clutched Luca's t-shirt as he followed behind. She thought they were almost ready to pass them when suddenly Tony and Emma zoomed past.
"What are you doing?" Daisy asked over the wind. "Go faster!"
"I'm not trying to put you in danger, sunshine!" Luca yelled back.
"Luca, I want to win!" Daisy said. Luca groaned, feeling Daisy's hand move to his crotch.
"For fuck's sake!"
Daisy yelped in shock as they picked up speed at a dangerous rate. She could barely make out anything as they shot forward and passed Tony and Emma. Luca had raced the streets for many years growing up. He knew every sharp turn and curve like the back of his hand. Keeping Daisy's safety in mind, he kept up his speed until they were nose to nose with Jimmy and Maryella.
"Come one, come on!" Daisy yelled with excitement, making some of the stress on Luca's shoulders alleviate. "Come on, Luca!"
"Hold on," Luca smiled as he felt the thrill of the speed take over. Daisy was tightly pressed against his back and her legs were squeezing him as hard as she could. Her scent blew around in the wind as Luca pushed up the windshield and peered towards the top of the hill. He looked to his right and grinned at Jimmy, giving him a solute before taking off like a bullet.
"Yes!" Daisy yelled as they reached the top of the hill with no competition.
Jumping off the motorcycle, Daisy took off her helmet and threw her arms around Luca. He pulled her closer and placed his hands on the bottom of her ass before dipping his head down low and kissing her. Their hearts raced in their bodies as they melted into one another and celebrated their victory.
"Happy?" Luca asked, pulling back to look at her.
"Very," Daisy laughed. "That was so fun."
"You weren't scared?"
"No," Daisy shook her head.
"We're never doing that again by the way."
"What?" Daisy's face fell. "Why?"
"I have to think about your safety now," Luca said. "Not just you. But Theo too. What will happen to him if anything happens to us?"
Daisy frowned, knowing very well she couldn't argue with that logic.
"I'm glad you had fun," Luca pulled her back to kiss her forehead. "But we're not kids anymore."
"I know," Daisy leaned against him. "I love you."
"I adore you," Luca kissed the top of her head.
"I'll take it," Daisy said.
The sound of the other bikes filled the night as Jimmy and Tony came to a stop beside Luca's bike. Their headlights lit up the small circle on the cliff as the ocean waves below crashed against the rocks. The church loomed against the sky in the background as the group celebrated their reunion race.
"This was so much fun," Emma said from where she sat on the bike. "Should we race back?"
"No," Luca said immediately. "You two can. But I'm taking my wife home."
"Of course, of course," Emma grinned. She turned towards Daisy and gave her a wink. "Go celebrate your win."
Luca arched his brow but didn't ask any questions. They climbed back onto the bike and began to head down at a much more responsible speed. Daisy held her arms out to the side and lifted the windshield of her helmet before catching Luca's eyes in the mirror. She laughed as she leaned back against him and kissed his back. After saying goodbye to the group and returning the bikes, Luca held Daisy's hand as they made their way to the car.
"Are you tired?" He asked as she climbed into the passenger seat.
"No," Daisy shook her head.
"I want to show you something," Luca smiled.
"What is it?"
"You'll see," Luca got into the driver's seat and turned the car towards the top of the hill.
Daisy watched the shops and houses pass by as they rode in silence in the hot summer night. She felt light and giddy as Luca played with her hand and held it on his lap. When they drove past the house, Daisy arched her brow and looked at Luca.
"Where are you taking me?" She asked.
"You're so impatient," Luca laughed.
"Are you taking me to church?" Daisy teased as they drove through the church gates and towards the back.
"No," Luca said.
"What is this place?" Daisy looked around as Luca took the side road and exited the church grounds through the back gates.
They continued to drive in the darkness over uneven ground before they came to another cliff and Luca killed the engine.
"Wait for me," he said as he walked around to Daisy's side. "Be careful."
Daisy slowly climbed out of the car as the strong wind tossed her hair around and teased her dress. She didn't care if the fabric blew up. It was so dark, no one would see anything. Not that there was anyone around.
"My mom used to bring me here," Luca said, walking her to the edge of the cliff.
Daisy didn't understand why a mother would bring their child to an open cliff like that until she looked out and saw the glowing lights below.
"Wow," Daisy's eyes widened.
"This is all of Del Mare," Luca said, gazing down at the town.
"This is beautiful," Daisy tried to take a step forward but Luca stopped her.
"Don't get too close."
"Did you come here a lot?"
"Almost every night," Luca said.
"It feels like I'm on top of the world and that's earth down there," Daisy laughed. "This is incredible."
"You're incredible."
Daisy looked over her shoulder at Luca. His hair was a mess from the helmet and the wind. Yet he looked as handsome as ever in his black t-shirt and dark jeans. His sharp jaw was more visible since he had shaved earlier in the day. Daisy stared at him until she couldn't resist stepping closer and leaning against his hard chest.
"You were incredible today," Luca whispered, tucking her hair back and gazing down at her. "They loved you."
"I really like them too," Daisy smiled. "They're good people. You should stay in touch with them."
"People and things in this town bring back bad memories," Luca said, his eyes growing a bit sad.
"We can make new memories," Daisy raised her hand and touched the edge of his face. "Right?"
"Right," Luca nodded.
"We can start here," Daisy carefully moved to her tippy toes and planted a small kiss on Luca's lips.
It was a feathery touch. So light and so gentle. Yet, the warmth and desire in the small act ignited fire in both of their hearts. Luca dipped his head lower and captured Daisy's mouth. His hands landed on her hips as he began to kiss her wildly. She didn't miss a beat as her arms hooked around his neck and she pulled herself closer.
Bending down, Luca lifted her off the ground and walked her over to the hood of the car. He sat her down and stood between her legs as his lips crushed her's and devoured their taste. Her every sharp intake of breath fueled Luca. he kissed her harder and harder until they were both gasping for air.
"Fuck the hearts and flowers," Luca said, grabbing the back of Daisy's head and pulling her back to his mouth.
Daisy felt her belly clench from his words. She jumped off the hood of the car and began to undo the back of her dress. Luca helped her unzip as he guided her to the back of the car and unlocked the back door. Daisy took her shoes off and Luca lowered all the seats. He pulled out one of the beach blankets from earlier and laid it down before turning towards Daisy.
"Do you want to wait?" He asked. "We can go home or go to a hotel in tow-"
Daisy didn't let him finish as she jumped into his arms. She pulled him down to her mouth as her thighs began to press against one another, increasing the need.
Luca laid her down inside the car and hovered over her. He looked into her eyes as he undid the front ribbon of her dress and let the two pieces fall to the side. Daisy's breathing grew heavy as his hand moved down her chest and towards the spot between her legs.
"God, you're so beautiful," Luca whispered.
Daisy responded by letting out a soft whimper and closing her eyes as Luca's fingers moved to her clit. He began to rub her in circles as his other hand slid off her underwear. Positioning himself between her legs, Luca pushed her hips up and licked her wetness. Daisy gasped as his warm tongue laid flat against her and flicked back and forth, making her legs shake. She pushed herself onto her elbows to see what he was doing as her knees bent and allowed him more space to play.
"Luca," Daisy gasped, gripping his hair and moving closer to his mouth.
"I'm right here, baby," Luca said, rising and moving to kiss her.
Daisy gripped his shoulders and laid him down. She leaned over him and kissed him softly and tenderly. Luca's hands moved to her back and undid her bra. Daisy rolled onto her back once more and moved her hair out of the way. She watched as Luca removed his shirt and then the rest of his clothes.
"Do you have any idea how much I want you?" He asked, moving in between her legs. "Feel me."
Daisy's heart began to bat out of her chest as she took his hard cock into her hand and stroked him. Luca shuddered and lowered his mouth to her's.
"I'm nothing without you," he whispered. "You complete me."
"You're my everything," Daisy said, feeling her eyes water.
"Why are you crying?" Luca asked, placing his hand against her face.
"Because I'm scared of how much I want you," Daisy said. "I can't live without you."
"You won't have to," Luca kissed her.
Daisy's hands moved up Luca's back and into his hair as his body glided over her. She spread her legs and held onto him as he took hold of his cock and pushed into her. Daisy's back curved off the blanket, her eyes shut and she bit down in her bottom lip so hard she feared she would draw blood.
Luca buried his face in the crook of her neck, hoping his breathing would even out. He couldn't describe how incredible she felt. Warm, wet, tight, and all his. Wanting her more than life itself, Luca began to move his hips. Daisy's nails dug into his back as she matched his uneven breathing.
"I'm going to push in more," he spoke into her ear. "Stop me if it's too much."
Daisy nodded. She held her breath and melted in his arms as he pushed all the way inside. She could feel him in every part of her body. Every thrust was better than the one before. Luca moved slowly to allow Daisy time to adjust to his side. He wanted to do so much with her but he didn't want to rush anything.
"Are you okay?" Luca asked, breathlessly.
Daisy nodded, "Are you?"
"I've never been better," Luca said. He reached down and hooked one of her legs before pushing in farther. Daisy's mouth widened in a silent gasp as she felt pure bliss strike.
"Wait," she said, stopping Luca and sitting up.
"What's wrong?" Luca asked.
"Nothing," Daisy said as she climbed on top of him. She blanched herself with her hands on his chest as she sat down on his rock hard cock, feeling it slide into her wet pussy. Her hips began to move back and forth. Luca's jaw clenched. His hands flew to her hips and moved her faster.
"Fuck," Luca bit down on his molars, watching the way Daisy's body bounced on his dick. Her full breasts bounced around as her eyes rolled and her pussy clenched tightly round him.
"I'm so close," Daisy panted. "Don't stop."
Luca moved his hand down and began to play with her swollen bud. Daisy moaned, scrapping her nails over his chest as she begged him to never stop.
Luca sat up and flipped them over. The car moved as he pinned her below him and pounded his cock into her. He pushed her leg up and told her to touch herself as he felt her clenching around him and gasping silently, ready to explode around him.
"Keep playing with yourself, my love," Luca said through his teeth. "You're so fuckin' hot like this."
"Luca!" All the muscles in Daisy's legs locked up. She was on the verge of losing her mind when Luca suddenly stepped out of the car and pulled her to the edge. She had no time to complain as he threw her legs over his shoulders and pushed into her once more.
"My god!" Daisy threw her hand over her mouth as she felt Luca like never before. He was so deep inside of her that she was sure he would make her cum with just a few more thrusts.
Grabbing her hips firmly, Luca began to thrust into Daisy. Her legs stayed against his chest as his feet were planted in the ground and he moved in and out of her until her head rolled back and she twisted in his arms, calling out his name with her nails digging into his forearm.
Luca couldn't hold himself back as she felt her cum around him. She was tight and wet, her body buzzing from her orgasm. Luca pushed her legs closer to her body as he moved as fast as he could. He couldn't believe the need in him as he imagined doing so many dirty things to the beautiful girl lying in front of him with her legs up in the air for him.
Before Luca could finish, he slipped out and moved Daisy back into the car. He climbed over her and moved into her again, shuddering with pleasure every time. With her pinned beneath him, Luca lowered his mouth to her neck and then to her chest. He bit down on her the swell of her breast before taking the skin into his mouth and sucking on it. Daisy gripped his hair and locked her legs around his hips.
"Luca, don't stop!" She begged. "Baby.....more."
"Say my name again," Luca said, looking down at her face. "Like you did the first day in the car."
"Luca," Daisy said breathlessly. "Luca."
"I want you like this every morning and every night," Luca said, feeling his high climb. "I don't think I can stop fucking you. Ever."
"Don't stop!" Daisy said against his mouth. "Don't!"
"I'm not stopping, baby," Luca picked up his speed as Daisy tightened around him once more and he joined her.
Every ounce of fatigue, every gram of sorrow, every drop of pain vanished from Luca's soul as he became undone. He collapsed into her arms as she began to splatter kisses over his shoulder.
"I want to do that again," Daisy said.
"Yes," Luca nodded.
Hehehe hope you liked it :)
