17. Luka
Luka
Thankfully, my parent's house was uneventful.
We all just hang out with my Pops while Gretchen makes us chicken parmesan since it is Gio's favorite.
I love hearing Adrianna laugh when he would tell her stories about us boys growing up.
Gretchen even chimed in, talking about how we all made her go grey.
Even though she was grey long before CeCe and I came along.
I hear the front door open and a ton of commotion. "We are here!"
I laugh when Adrianna leans closer to me. I love that she knows that I will keep her safe.
"Vecchio!" Layla and Gio yell and run to Mr. C. I laugh when he scrunches his face up.
"Who the hell told you to call me that?" He grabs the kids in a bear hug and then pins Romeo and Cross with a death stare that has probably made grown men piss themselves.
"Don't know what you are talking about, Old Man." Cross lifts his shoulder and Sam smacks him on the back of the head.
"What did you teach them to say?" She looks from Cross to Romeo. When they don't answer, she looks at the rest of us. None of us willing to open our mouths.
"Please don't tell me it's a curse word," Lacey says and throws up her hands. "I am just learning the words you use all the time, and now you throw new ones in."
Adrianna is sitting next to me, laughing. "It means Old Man." She says between breaths. Everyone turns and looks at her. I guess I forgot to tell them all she knew Italian.
"And who are you?" Skee moves around Mr. C and makes his way into the room.
He stands in front of Adrianna and sticks out his hand.
"I am Jonah. These assholes call me Skee, but you can call me Daddy.
" Then he fucking winks at her. I am up off my chair before I even think about it, his shirt gripped around my hand.
He tips his head back laughing and Adrianna jumps up, grabbing my arm and pulling me back.
"Luka, it's okay." She pulls on me harder. "Please."
Skee is still laughing. "Watch your fucking mouth." I get as close to his face as I can.
He raises his hands. "Okay, Man, Okay. I got it."
"You are an idiot." Augie walks into the room and elbows Skee when I let him go. "Hey, Adrianna." He nods at her as Mia walks into the room. "Babe!" He yells and wraps her in a hug.
"Quit fucking touching her." Liam grabs Mia and drags her away from Augie, and everyone laughs, ignoring the fact that I almost killed Skee.
"Are you okay?" Adrianna leans in and whispers as we sit around the dining room table.
"Yeah, Gattina. I am okay." I lean down and kiss her forehead, taking in her scent.
"Don't call me that." She kisses my cheek and goes back to talking to Lacey.
We are getting ready to leave when Mr. C pulls me to the side. "So, you got a girl now?"
"Yeah, Old Man. I got a girl now."
"Okay, is she protected?"
"I don't think she needs it, " I say, looking at him and then at Adrianna. "Does she?"
"Don't forget who you are, Luka." He pats me on the shoulder. "I will take care of it."
"Thanks, Old Man."
"Save me a seat at the game tomorrow night." He starts walking off to say bye to Mia.
"You're coming to a game?" He has never wanted to come to a game before.
"Yeah, Kid. I need to watch you get us to the playoffs.
I walk Adrianna to her door and she turns around to face me. "Thank you for tonight. I had a really good time." She leans up and kisses me and I smile at her. She turns and opens her door.
"What you doing, Baby?" I lean against her door frame.
"Saying goodnight." She says it like she is asking it as a question.
"I'm not leaving you, Gattina." I step into her apartment and grab her around her waist, lifting her until she wraps her legs around me and I kick the door closed.
"Don't call me that." She says, her mouth just millimeters away from my lips.
I can't help but take her mouth in mine. I walk her back into her room and lay her out on the bed. I crawl over her and kiss my way up her neck. "Come to my game tomorrow?" I nip at her ear.
"Mmmhhh." She runs her hands through my hair and pulls my head closer to her.
I kiss her lips and run my nose against hers. "Come to my game tomorrow, Adrianna. It's our last home game for a while. I want you there."
"Can Pen come too?"
"Of course, Baby." I kiss her neck again.
"Okay." She kisses me. I slide my hand down her body, snap open her jeans and slide my hand into them.
I circle her clit, "So wet for me, Baby." I can feel her nod against my head. She pulls at my shirt and I lift off of her just enough for her to pull it off. She runs her hands up my chest and over my shoulders.
"I love how big you are." She leans up and kisses my chest over my heart. It is just a tiny movement. Something I am sure she doesn't even mean, but it breaks every wall down I have left standing. If this girl leaves me, she is going to wreck me.
I push one finger inside her. Gripping my shoulders, she digs her nails into me and moans. "I need you right now, Luka." She pulls at me, trying to get me closer. I push off of her and stand. She looks at me with wide eyes as I undo my belt.
"Who is in charge in here, Adrianna?" I slide the belt out through the loops. She watches my every move as I pull the button of my jeans and allow them to fall to the floor.
"You are." She smiles and I nod at her.
"That's right. I am." I step closer to the edge of the bed.
"Hands up." She instantly lifts her hands above her head.
I set the belt on the bed and lift her shirt off of her.
Reaching around and unsnapping her bra. "Lay down.
" She lays back and I grab her jeans. "Lift.
" She lifts her hips and I pull her clothes off her body.
I grab the belt and crawl back up her body. "Do you trust me?" I look down at her.
She scrunches her eyebrows together like she is thinking. "I trust you not to hurt me."
"Hands above your head, Baby." She lifts her hands above her head, and I wrap them with my belt, making sure it is tight enough that she can't pull free but that it won't hurt her.
"Hhmmm, this is new." She lifts and looks at her wrapped hands. Jealous rage fills my mind. I hate the fact that anyone has ever touched her before me. I will make damn sure I am the last. "What do I do now?" She looks at me like a kid in a candy store with a wide smile and heat in her eyes.
"You do nothing." I slide back off of her and pull her legs so she is at the end of the bed.
"Nothing?" She looks at me in question. With our conversation today about her always making sure everyone else is taken care of, I want to make sure she knows she doesn't have to do that in here.
"Absolutely nothing." I reach over her and grab my discarded t-shirt.
This will have to do. I take the shirt and wrap it around the top part of her head, covering her eyes.
I have never blindfolded a girl before. I always loved the way their eyes would run over me.
But with my Gattina. I want to get lost in her.
Not in the way she looks at me. At least for tonight.
I run my fingertips over her body. I love the way she jumps every time I touch her.
My tongue replaces my fingers and I trail kisses over her body.
When I reach the top of her breast, I sink my teeth into her.
Loving the way her body arches into me. I run my tongue over the bite.
I love the fact she is marked by me. I repeat the process down her body.
Leaving teeth marks until I bite the inside of her thigh.
"If you don't get inside me right now, Luka. I might kill you." She tries to push her body up against mine. I slap the inside of her thigh, leaving a nice red mark.
"I got you, Gattina."
She growls at me and I know she wants to yell at me for calling her that.
Before she can, I run my tip against her wet core.
We both moan. "You ready for me, Baby? You want this?
" I run myself over her again. Driving myself as crazy as I am driving her.
She frantically nods. I run myself over her again and again.
I can feel her start to shake under me. I know she is close.
I can't go without feeling her tighten around me, so I pull back and slam into her in one thrust. I feel her instantly tighten around me.
"Holy Fuck." She lets out a cry.
I need to see her, need to feel her. I grab her wrists and lift her toward me, pulling the shirt off her head.
She starts blinking, getting herself used to the light again.
"Arms around my neck, Baby." I lift her wrists and slide them over my neck.
I stand and her legs go around me. I grip under her ass.
"Hold on, Baby." I start lifting her off me and slamming her back down.
Her head tips back and I latch on to her neck.
I feel her body shiver under my hands. I try to hold off.
To get her there one more time, but her body feels so good.
I can't wait. I try to slow down, try to pull out, but she tightens her grip on me.
"Please don't stop." She tips her head back and stares at me. "Please."
I would give her anything she asked for. My brothers always told me not to have unprotected sex. That someone would try to attach themselves to me with a kid. But I would have a dozen kids with Adrianna if she would let me. So, I ignore everything I was taught and empty myself into my girl.
I set her on the bed and dip my head out from her arms. She falls back with a sigh and a big smile on her face. I reach up and unwrap her arms.
"Shit, Baby. I hurt you." I run my fingers over the marks on her wrist. "Come on, let me take care of you."
"It doesn't hurt, Luka." She rubs her wrist, but I am already picking her up and carrying her into the bathroom. I set her on the sink.
She jumps, "Damn, that's cold." She says laughing and I start pulling open drawers. I find a pack of birth control. I don't know why I feel a tinge of sadness. I continue to rummage through her things.
"What are you looking for?" She cocks her head to the side and stares at me.
"Aloe." I open another cabinet, grab the bottle I am looking for, and set it beside her before starting the shower. "Come on, Baby." I lift her and carry her into the shower, taking the time to wash her and her hair.
"This is nice." She says as she tips her head back for me to rinse the conditioner.
"I have never done this before. I am not hurting you, am I?" I ran my fingers through her hair to make sure I had gotten all the knots.
"No, it feels good. I have never had anyone do it, either. It's another first, I guess." She opens her eyes and smiles at me.
"We are going to have so many firsts, Adrianna. I promise." I get us dried off. Putting her back onto the counter I run my finger tips over her wrist. "I am so sorry I hurt you, Baby."
"They don't hurt, Luka." She smiles at me.
I scoop up some aloe and rub it on her wrists. "This should help. I use it when I get cuts from hockey." I carry her from the sink and lay her on the bed. Sliding us both under the covers.
"Any rules I should know about tomorrow?" She has her head on my chest, running her fingers over my tattoos.
"What do you mean?" I run my fingers through her hair.
"Now that I am—" She stops and looks up at me.
"My girlfriend." I finish for her and she smiles. Girlfriend feels too basic for what we have. I hate it.
"Yes, girlfriend. What are the rules at your games? How should I act? Who should I talk to? Anything I should avoid saying to someone? Is there certain places I shouldn't talk to you? Shouldn't touch you?"
I hate she thinks she needs to be someone she isn't. "Act however you want; talk to whoever you want. Touch me however you want." I lift her hand and nibble on her fingers. "Nothing you will do is wrong. You are perfect. You were mine at the last game; you just didn't know it yet."
"Okay." She doesn't sound convinced but drops it and we both fall asleep.
