《Cuore Mio》Chapter Twenty Nine - Midnight Dinner
Advertisement
By 6:00 pm, everyone had left the warehouse and gone back home. This was only their workplace. It was just Dante and I now.
Seeing that is was quite late, I decided to have a shower. It had been a few hours since Dante and I had been at the shooting range.
Since then, all I had being doing was wasting my time in the living room; talking to Kim and Alex on the phone and watching TV.
I hadn't seen Dante because he was in his office. I mean, he did still have to run a company and also had a mafia to handle.
I had told Liam about what had happenee and he said that I could work from home. Initially, I didn't want to, but Liam and Dante managed to convince me.
Walking into the room....or our room ? That sounds weird. 'The Room' it is.
I went to the bathroom and had a nice, long shower. Half an hour later, I was clean and I smelled like lavender.
I wore one of my favorite pajamas. It was a white top with the words 'sleepy head' on it and the shorts were black with white polka dots.
When I finished wiping my hair, I went to Dante's office. I knocked on the door and waited for a response.
"Come in." His voice was faintly heard.
Opening the door, I peeked in and then walked into the room. His office was very modern. It looked waayyy better than his office back at Romano Industries.
"You don't have to knock, Azalea. You can come and go as you please." Dante said, keeping the pen he was writing with, on the table.
"Okay, then." I said, sitting on the chair in his office.
"So...what'd you need ?" He asked.

"Well....is there a kitchen here or something ? 'Cause I'm hungry." I asked him.
Dante chuckled. "There's no kitchen in here but we could go get food you'd like ?" He said, but it sounded more like a question.
"Heck yeah !" I shouted. "I love McDonald's. Can we go there ? Come on ! I'm hungry !" I said, pulling Dante from his chair by his arm.
"Yeah. Just a minute. We'll go. I have a few things to do." He said, typing into his phone with his other hand.
"Alright." I sighed, sitting back on the chair.
Half an hour later, he was still on his phone. I was getting hungrier by the second....
"You coming ?" I asked.
"Yeah. Just a minute." He replied, writing something down.
When he still didn't finish his work, I got really impatient. I walked to his desk and pulled his arm.
"Come on. You can finish your work when we come back. It's midnight and I'm hungry." I whined.
He pulled his arm back, trying to let it loose. But I wasn't going to let go. I pulled harder and so did he.
I used all my strength to pull him but he seemed to continue doing his work, nonchalantly.
Finally giving up, I decided to go on my own. Since Dante was so engrossed in doing work, he didn't realise when I stopped pulling him.
I wasn't using my any of my strength on him so when he pulled me towards him...
I fell.
On his lap.
Well, this is awkward...
Now, I was sitting on his lap; with my butt on one of his thighs and my legs dangling over his other leg.
His hands were on my waist so that he could prevent me from falling down.

Realizing that I was on his lap, I quickly got up. "I'm going out. Come if want to." I said, turning around to leave the room.
"I'm coming...." Dante sighed.
"Finally !" I exclaimed.
"Aren't you going to change ?" He asked, looking at my pajamas.
"Nah...it's okay...nobody will see me." I shrugged.
"Okay. Let's go." He said, opening the car door for me.
"Thanks." I said and then we were on our way for food.
An hour later, we finished eating dinner. I was bloated. Ooohh..so full...
Now, Dante was in the shower and I was arranging the pillows on the couch for me to sleep.
Although the bed was big enough to for the both of us, I preferred not to sleep with him.
I know that we've slept together before, but on those days we had just fallen asleep. We hadn't actually sleep together. You know what I mean ?
Laying down in the couch, I closed my eyes. That's when I heard the water stopping. Oh, he finished showering.
When Dante came out went into the closet. After a while, he shouted, "Azalea ! Where are my t-shirts ?"
Opening my eyes, I shouted back, "What do you mean ? They're all there."
He came out of the closet. Oh....
He was shirtless but had sweatpants on. Those abs...dang....
"You done ogling, Stellina ?" His voice breaks me out of my daze.
"I wasn't ogling, doofus." I retort.
"It'll be somewhere there only. I didn't move any of your clothes." I say, laying back down on the couch.
A while later, I could hear his footsteps so I knew that he had come back out. "You can look now, I'm fully clothed." Dante said. "Unless you don't want that ?" He said, teasingly.
Annoyed, I opened my eyes and threw a pillow at him. "No. I'm happy actually. I couldn't let my eyes burn from your ugliness." I teased back.
"Yeah, right." Dante scoffed, catching the pillow in time.
He came towards the couch and there the pillow at my face. "Move. Go to the bed. I'll sleep here."
"Nope. I'm sleeping here. You go." I say, removing the pillow from my face.
"Azalea. I'm too tired for this. Just go sleep there." He sighed.
"So am I. Goodnight." I said, turning away from him. I took the blankets over my head and closed my eyes.
"Fine. You want to sleep there. No problem. Goodnight." Dante said, probably going back to the bed.
Minutes later, he switched the lights off and walked back to the bed.
Slowly, I drifted off to sleep.
