te pull up to your house, an ora and a half after school let out, hoping your mother isn’t home to realize te didn’t come straight home after school. To be honest, te never actually went. te spent the giorno in your lover’s arms, not moving from the letto except for that ora long doccia te took. te close your eyes, relaxing against the leather seats, and a smile creeps across te face as te think of the way she touched you. te blush, thinking of the way she made te come, screaming her name and dragging your nails down her back. It was the first time te didn’t have to fake your...

Your cell phone rings, waking te from a peaceful sleep. te reluctantly climb out of letto to find it, wrapping a sheet around te and cursing whoever decided it was a good idea to call te at 5 am. Stumbling towards your phone, te smile at the blonde girl still sleeping, remembering the night before. te flip your phone open without checking the caller ID.
“Hello,” te say, your voice laced with the effects of sleep.
“Marissa Cooper,” the voice on the other end screeches. “Where the hell are you, young lady?”
“Yeah, nice to hear from you, too, Mom,” te say sarcastically.
“Where...

te look up as te hear the door open, watching her walk in. te smile softly and tell her that her girlfriend has gone to sleep. She nods.

“Cool, I think we've seen the last of the guys,” she says, walking over to the table.

“Oh I wouldn’t be so sure, there’s still like what four minuti of girls night out left,” te retort.

You watch her as she takes a drink from the birra bottle she just picked up. “I’ve had enough of girls, and guys,” she says, sounding exasperated.

“There’s an old horror movie on,” te tell her, trying to take her mind off things.

She glances at the television...

te walk along the pier with her, hand in hand, as the wind blows softly. te look over at her and notice how beautiful she looks in the setting sun. te pause briefly and push a stray hair behind her ear and she pulls te in for a kiss. te still can’t believe how undeniably attracted te are to her. If you’d been asked a mese fa if you’d ever hook up with a girl, it would have been an emphatic ‘no.’ But then again, a mese ago, te didn’t know her as anything other than Seth’s boss and sometime girlfriend.

“Hey, Maris,” she says, breaking your thoughts. te smile at her...

te walk into the club, standing at the superiore, in alto of the spiral staircase, watching her give instructions to the few other employees that occupy the floor. te reach up and touch the cuore collana she gave you, unsure of what you’re about to do. Your cuore hurts just thinking about it, but it’s the right thing to do, isn’t it? No one is going to accept te two and te can’t take the stress of being rejected da everyone te know and love. te slowly make your way down the stairs, steadying yourself on the handrail. te stop at the bar, waiting for her to turn around.

“Hey you,” she says,...

te walk in the front door and before te can close it, she’s standing in front of you.

“Traffic on the way home from school,” she says.

“Yeah, mom,” te say, rolling your eyes and walking past her into the kitchen. te weren’t in the mood for her games, te just wanted to mostra up long enough for her to get off your case and let te go see Alex again.

“I know te weren’t at Summer’s last night,” she calls from the foyer as she comes to meet te in the kitchen.

“Oh really now,” te say, pulling out the arancia, arancio succo, succo di frutta and taking a drink, not even bothering with a glass.

“Marissa,...

te wake up, blinded da the light coming in through the curtains. te don’t open your eyes because te feel arms wrapped around te and you’re scared you’d wake whoever it is. Instead, te sigh and curl up closer, trying to fall back asleep. For some reason, te feel good about yourself, even though te can’t remember where te are, because te know it’s not home. te decide te should probably figure that out, so te open your eyes a little and see the blonde hair that’s across your shoulder and smile. te know exactly where you’re at, and it makes te all warm again. te lean...
