I stare at Marianne in disbelief, her tight ponytail swaying as she moves hastily towards the stairs.

She is actually leaving, leaving me sitting here like this.

I don't know whether to laugh or get mad at this girl's audacity.

"Angelo, fancy seeing you here" i hear Alana say and i finally turn my heard breaking out of my trance to find her grinning at me.

I look passed her at her twin, who is bearing a similar facial expression. I sigh and sit back in my chair.

"What are you two doing here?"

"Oh, we came here for lunch and just randomly saw you sitting here, small world" Alana pats her eyelashes at me. I glare back, unconvinced.

"Ok, we came to meet your new girlfriend" Alana admits.

"She is not his girlfriend" Alexis frowns. Lexi was Claire and I's biggest cheer leader. She is never accepting of any possible serious relationship with anyone else.

I lower my head and massage my temples, feeling a headache coming.

"How did you know where to find me?"

"We called Philip at the office, since you know, you are not picking up your phone, he said you were working from home today, but that you were not likely to be there right now because he made a reservation for you for a lunch appointment for two" Lexi utters, emphasising the "two" by raising up her dueces.

"I ought to fire him" I grunt.

"So where is she?" Lexi asks, looking around.

"Where is who? As you can see, i am alone"

"Yeah, with two plates of food?" Lana drawls.

"I was craving for diffirent things." i say, just as the waiter comes back this the bill.

"Seriously though, where is she?" Lana utters

"Thanks" i say, standing up after the bill is settled.

"Or did you ask her to leave because you didn't want us to meet her" Lexi asks in an accusing manner.

"Yes, because i knew you were coming." I say sarcastically, walking out of the eatery with my sisters in tow.

As soon as we get outside, i scan the area, half hoping i will see Marianne by some corner somewhere waiting for me, but i don't.

As we walk to my car, i can hear my sisters talking but my mind is busy, i am almost convinced she will be by the car, but again she is not.

I really can't believe this..... She Actually. Fucking. Left.

"Are you listening? Who are you looking for" Lexi asks frowning.

"No one...look, how did you two get here, because can only carry one of you with me." i say and Lexi frowns.

"I have somewhere i need to go on my own, don't worry" She says right away and kisses my cheek before walking alway to her car muttering.

'Just wasted my time coming here. Now i am late for nothing.'

I turn to Lana and she smiles at me. Well, atleast i get to deal with the less temperamental of the two.

I smile back as i open the door for her, forcing all thoughts of Marianne out of my head for now.

"Thank you" She says in her usual sweet voice.

Alana, soft natured and shy. Somewhat the more quiet of the two. She hates conflict and gets uncomfortable easily. She is alot like my mother actually. Which means she is also kind and generous, and very earger to please, something lexi likes to take full advantage of every chance she gets.

Alexis is the opposite of her sister. She invites trouble, she is unpredictable, short tempered and likes everything to be done her way, rarely compromising. Basically she is me, thats why between the two, i have always been closer to lexi than Lana, not that i love Lana any less. But Lexi and i, we think alike and like similar things, except for the fact that she likes to be the center of attention, unlike me.

However, Lana has always been my weakness, because of her soft nature, i can never be mad at her or refuse her anything, and she knows it.

"So, tell me what you have been up to lately?" i ask her, as i drive off.

The rest of the afternoon passes with no text or phone call from Angelo and i start to wander just how much he must be upset with me.

I didn't overreact now did i?

I mean, the more i think about it, the more i want to slap myself for acting like that, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

When i get to my apartment after work, i feel abit nostalgic as i walk into the hall and start to open my door, but Angelo had assured me earlier not to worry about Eric and to trust that he would take care of it, and i do.

After some preparation, i am good and ready to go for dinner, although what happened after lunch has left me feeling more nervous than excited, But like the strong willed woman i am, i lace up my boots and walk out the door, ready to face Angelo in whatever mood i will find him in.

*

"Hello miss Wright" Felix greets me from the security box after i walk into the apartment building.

"Hello Felix, how are you?"

"I am very well, thank you, Do you need help with anything?"

"No i am ok. I think i know my way" i say when he comes out to greet me.

"Ofcourse" He says, pressing the elevator button on my behalf.

"By the way, there is a private elevator in the parking lot for our VIP residents, you don't need to come to the lobby next time" He says politely.

"Thank you, i will remember that" but i doubt i will be able to use it anyway, you need special access to even get into the private parking area, which i don't, but i guess he doesn't know that.

As the lift goes up, my stomach ties up in knots, because i am so nervous. The lift opens and i walk out to Angelo's door.

I take a deep breath and punch the security code for his door, feeling like i am tresspassing. I mean, he made a big deal about me memorising it and so i did today.

The door opens and i half expect someone to jump or slap me for trespassing.

I step into the house and see Angelo standing in the foyer as if he knew i had arrived. He is wearing black chinos and a dark grey long sleeved v neck, that he has folded at the elbows.

"Hai" i mutter, surprised to see him standing there.

"Hai yourself" he responds, leaning against the post at the bottom of the staircase.

"I used the code" i mumble.

"I can see that" he responds, folding his arms over his chest casually and staring at me leisurely.

I sigh and walk into the room, taking a sit on a nearby chair, i face him.

"Ok, go ahead, yell at me and get it over with, because honestly, i have been feeling bad all afternoon" i relent.

*

I watch her look at me with those puppy dog eyes and i know despite how mad i have been all afternoon, i can't stay mad anymore.

Not with those two braids on her head making her look like an innocent little girl, a very sexy innocent looking girl though. I look down at her brown skirt that ends just below her knees, it's not body hugging, but has buttons at the front that start at the waist all the way down to the bottom and she has left half of them undone, exposing her smooth thighs with the slightest movement.

She also has on a black fitting cotton shirt tacked into the skirt and the combination making her look, sexy but classy. She is holding a dark leather jacket in her hands.

Dropping my arms, i take fast strides towards her, my body iching to touch her, to feel her. Stopping infront of her, i pull her to her feet by her hands and tilt her head back.

"I missed you" i tell her truthfully, after kissing her softly, catching her off-guard.

Her eyes, flatter open and she smiles slowly, wrapping her arms around my neck.

"I missed you too" She responds.

"Why the hell did you run" i ask, wanting to tease her a little bit.

"I did not run..you make it sound so bad. I panicked ok. Besides, you looked disturbed when you saw them, and i kind of thought that maybe you didn't want to introduce me to them" she responds and i pull back to look at her.

"Huh, so now you are going to blame me for it?" i ask and she pouts.

"Will you just.....let it go? I had a bad enough afternoon already, ok" She groans, holding me just a little bit tighter against her.

"I can, but you are going to have to make it up to me really good later" i kiss her again.

""You are so shameless, taking advantage of a 'damsel in distress'."

"No argument there" i laugh, leading her to the kitchen.

*

"What are you making..." i ask, as the aroma of food hits my nose.

"Vegetable stirfry...i was just about to do a steak before you arrived." he smirks.

Pshht....bet he was actually just waiting for me to do it.

He pours us both some wine as we prepare a rib eye steak together to add to our meal while he tells me abit about his sisters.

"That looks good" He whispers over my shoulder when i finally take the cooked steak out of the oven unto the countertop. I feel his hand at the back of my thighs going up until he cups my ass, squeezing and rubbing my butt cheeks greedily.

"You like it?"

"Mmhhmm....Very. It's perfect" he whispers, his head snuggled in the crook of my neck, his voice hoarse and i realise, he is not talking about the steak.

"Angelo?" I don't even know what i want to say.

"Mmhhmm?" His hands slide to my front, now biting and kissing my neck, knowing just how crazy it drives me.

"I am hungry" I say, turning around.

"Me too"

Our eyes meet and agree, we are not talking about food.

I raise my fingers up to his face, tracing his cheek bones, loving the feel of his beard against my fingers, and as i trace his lips, he traps my index finger in his mouth, swirling his tongue around it before biting it softly.

The action sends waves of pleasure pulsing through my body. My chest fills up with heat.

"I want you Marianne, so very much babe." His voice is clear.

He lifts me up and on to the countertop, my skirt riding up with the movement, the slit leaving my thighs completely exposed. Only now do i realise, he undid all my buttons except for the top one.

"Angelo?" I say against his lips, as he rubs my thighs back and forth.

"Mary....You have the most beautiful soft thighs" he responds, as i tag at the botton of his shirt.

"I want to touch you" i say. He pulls back enough to allow me to pull his shirt over his head. I let my fingers trace his chest and his hands return to my thigh, until it rests just over my panties, his fingers resting right over my core.

I want him to touch me there, but he just keeps his fingers still and i swear he can fill me pulse against his fingers.

"I hold his face with both hands and kiss him, allowing my tougue to explore his mouth, i love the taste of wine on him, and i bite and suck on his tongue.

He groans and pulls back, just as his middle finger finally starts to move back and forth between my legs.

At last!

Causing me to whimper. His touch is light, barely putting any pressure, making it both nice and fustrating at the same time.

He stops, brings his middle finger to my lips, i open my mouth and suck on it hard, swirling my tongue around it and he grunts.

"Damn, baby, i am trying to take it slow, but you're killing me"

"Get it all wet." He demands and i do.

With his other hand, he parts my thighs further and pulls my panties to the side before removing his wet finger from my mouth and brings it down to my core, slowly pushing it inside me.

I moan into his mouth, as he kisses me passionately while his finger moves in and out of me, his palm raised up and rubbing against my swollen nub with the movement, stimulating me in the process.

He brings his head down to my chest, kissing and biting my breasts through my shirt and i am all nerves and sensations, feeling waves of heat fill my chest and whole body. He lifts his head up sudennly.

"Take it off for me baby" he demands and i lift the shirt up and over my head, leaving me in my bra. He pulls back again and pulls my underwear off completely. Bringing his mouth back to my breasts, he returns his finger back inside me, this time adding another one. He starts to pump harder and faster than before, until i start to feel this tight sensation creeping up on me.

I sit up more and grip his hand, trying to slow his movements.

"Angelo, Angelo.......please"

"You want me to stop?" he asks and i shake my head. I don't know what i want.

I start to feel light headed, and i close my eyes incredibly tight. My stomach clenches in a way i have never felt before and its scary and so overwhelming.

It's here, this feeling thats taking me over the edge...it's...al...most....here.

"C'mon, babe. Just like that... let it go..... give it to me" he says against my lips, urging me on, his fingers not relenting as he wraps his other hand around my waist, keeping me still as his fingers feel like they couldn't go any faster.

I explode, moaning louder than i ever have before as I feel myself gushing all over his fingers, my body shaking clumsily, but Angelo holds me tight against him, his fingers still moving, but not as much.

"Just like that..There you go.....that's my girl....Mmhhhmmm.....yes, good girl." He keeps murmuring against my mouth and my neck until he lowers me so that i am resting my back against the countertop.

I feel light headed, my chest is rising up and down heavily with every breathe and my legs are still shaking as they hang over the edge.

Sudennly, i am pulled towards the edge. Angelo wraps he hand around my waist again, pulling me in a sitting position, as his other hand lines up his sheathed and swollen member against my wet slit.

We both look down, and my mouth hangs open, as he fills me up again, slowly dissapearing into my body until his pelvis hits the back of my raised thighs. My legs shiver with the new sensation.

We both groan and he holds my neck, kissing and biting my open mouth as he stays completely still for a while, allowing me to adjust, then he he starts to move in and out, and i look down at his member, glistening with my arousal.

"Mmhhhmm, Marianne, you feel so good, there are no words for it" He lowers his head, biting and sucking on my breasts. I just moan in response, feeling overwhelmed by all the sensations.

Then he moves us off the counter, my weight meaning nothing to him, with my legs over his arms so that his hands have a firm grip, cupping my butt, then he starts to bounce me up and down his shaft.

My toes curl and i look at him, surprised at how this could possibly feel even better. The feeling becomes too much and i try to limit his deep thrusts. With one hand around his neck and the other on his chest, i get better leverage to control my movements, and he lets me, allowing me to dictate our rhythm.

He smiles at me.

"You like it like this" He asks rhetorically between low grunts, obviously noticing my new found delight.

"Oh yeah, plus now i am taller than you" i murmur and he laughs.

"Let's go upstairs, i am dying to see how good you look in my bed. Then you can start to make it up to me for this afternoon"
