Confused by Love Page 9

  I am now free of my panties, so he lifts me up and sits me back down on his erection. I let out a deep sigh; this is heaven. He starts to move, hard and fast. I didn't care that we were in a moving vehicle. He keeps up the pace and soon enough, I'm close to spilling over the top. I place my hands on the window to steady myself as my orgasm rips through me. He let’s go of his orgasm and starts to kiss me hard again.

  We snuggle in the back of the limousine as we pull up in front of the hotel. Donte climbs out first then holds his hand out to me. I grab his hand and climb out. Together, we walk in the hotel and to our room. Once inside, I decide to take a shower. He wants to wash me, so he grabs my hand and pulls me to him. He grabs the hem of my white dress and pulls it over my head

  He slowly unfastens my bra and slips my panties down. He strips down and turns the shower on. There’s something to be said about taking a shower with someone, whether it’s sexual or just washing each other.

  We're both lay on the sofa, dressed only in our bathrobes. I have my head on his chest. I start drifting off to sleep. Donte notices and lifts me up. "Come on, princess, you’re tired. Time for bed."

  Chapter 18

  It's been a week since the weekend Donte and I spent together. We have been trying to spend as much time together as possible, but it's been hard since Amanda is around. This weekend I won't see him; he has to go see Amanda's parents. He did try to get out of it, but she wouldn't let him. It’s Saturday morning and I'm having breakfast with Claire.

  "Izzy, what do you want to do this weekend?" she asks.

  "I think I will just have a lazy weekend," I reply.

  "Oh no, you don't. I know you want to see Donte, babe, but he has gone away. No point moping about it. I bet he will make it up to you," Claire says. "You know I don't approve of this, but I can see he makes you happy, and you make him happy." I never thought I would feel like this when he would go away for the weekend. He told me Wednesday, so I had all week to prepare for it, but I feel lost and lonely.

  "I am very grateful you haven’t said anything," I say while giving her a sad smile.

  "Izzy, you’re my best friend. I would never tell anyone," she says, hugging me. "He will be home soon." I am cheered up by that thought. I miss him already. I decide to get up out of my sulk and work on some wedding dress designs.

  "Claire," I say turning to her, "would you be my model for the wedding dresses we design?"

  "Won't Donte want to have a say in that?" she replies with her own question.

  "I'm sure he will, but you know he won’t tell me no," I say while laughing.

  "That is true. If Donte says it's okay, then of course I will," she says while also laughing. I get to my feet, hug her and go to the drawing room upstairs. I turn Kelly Clarkson on low, and get to work.

  At dinner time, Claire walks in the drawing room. "Come on you, enough drawing for one day. We are going to the spa since you couldn't make your mind up. I booked us in. We have an hour. Chop, chop," she demands and takes my pencils of me.

  "Okay, whatever you say, Claire."

  We're sitting in the spa; we are in a nice sea blue room, in high, white reclining chairs. We are having a pedicure and sipping champagne.

  "So, Isabella, when do you think Donte will tell Amanda?" she asks.

  I shrug my shoulders. "I don't know, but I hope it’s soon. I miss him," I reply. Claire nods in response, before continuing.

  "What do you think Amanda will do?" she asks.

  "I really don't know. I don't think about her, to be honest. But Donte tells me she's only after his money, so I think she will be pissed. Maybe not so much because she lost him, but because she lost his money," I reply truthfully.

  "Okay, and what about you and him?"

  "I'm not sure, but whatever happens, I’m sure we will be okay," I reply, secretly hoping we will be. With that, we move of the whole Donte and Amanda subject and on to work matters.

  After a manicure, pedicure, massage and an hour in the hot tub, we are making our way home. It's six in the evening, and Claire’s been grilling me all afternoon, I mean, I love her, but jeez, can she give you a good grilling.

  We pull up outside our house and walk up the path together. Claire and I dump ourselves on the sofa.

  "What would you like for dinner?" I ask.

  "How about we have fish and chips? My treat?"

  "I don't think so. Fish and chips we can do, but I'm paying. You paid for spa day, so you are not paying for this, too," I say.

  "The usual?" I ask.

  "Please," she says, smiling.

  "Cool, be back in five." I grab my purse, walk out, shutting the door behind me. I walk down the block to the fish shop. The small, curvy lady behind the counter serves me.

  "What can I get you, please?" she asks, smiling.

  "Can I order two cod and chips, two tubs of peas and a tub of gravy?" I say.

  After waiting ten minutes for the cod to cook, I'm on my way back home. I'm a few houses away from my place when my phone goes off. I grab the phone out of my jeans pocket and unlock the screen. Donte’s name shows and I smile to myself. I haven’t heard from him all day, so I was starting to worry. I wasn't going to text first, in case she was there.

  **Well, hello there princess, :-) How has your day been? I'm missing you!**

  I decide to text him when I get home. I'm only a few doors away, so a few seconds won’t hurt. When I walk in the front door, still smiling, Claire has to do a double take when she sees me.

  "Well, someone’s definitely cheered you up. Have you talked to Donte?"

  How does she do that? Am I really that much of a giveaway? "Yeah, Donte texted me," I say while walking to the table to put the food down.

  Chapter 19

  "So, what does he have to say for himself?"

  "Nothing really; just that he misses me," I say. Claire starts to open the food and dishes up, so I decide to take this moment to reply to Donte.

  **Well, hello back, stranger. I am missing you too. Can't wait to see you. Are you able to get away tomorrow night when you’re home? I need to see you. xX**

  I press send and put my phone down. Claire hands me my plate. "You sure you don't want gravy with that?" she asks. I laugh

  "Claire, you have dirty habits; no, thank you. I don't wish to mix mushy peas with gravy."

  "Hey," she says as she nudges me before sitting down. "It's not a dirty habit. It’s actually really good."

  "Okay, I will take your word for it.”

  We sit and eat our food in silence, until my phone goes off. I unlock the screen and open the message, but I don't read it. I put phone down and continue eating.

  Once we have finished, Claire tells me she will wash up since I went for food. This gives me chance to read my text. I grab my phone, walk over to the sofa and park my bottom.

  **I have indeed. I miss you so much; I can’t wait to see you. In fact, I managed to get away tomorrow morning. How about spending the day together? We could make it fun ;-)**

  Oh my gosh, of course I would.

  **You bet I would. But how do we manage that? Claire is home this weekend and Amanda is back tomorrow night, so we can’t go to your place. xX**

  By the time I get a reply, Claire is beside me on the sofa.

  **Amanda has been talked into shopping with her mom, so she won’t be back until Monday night. But you can't come to my place while she is here, so how does the hotel sound?**

  **You’re going to skint yourself if we carry on with these hotel visits! But yeah I would love to :-)**

  **Done. I will pick you up at ten. And stop worrying about money. You know I would rather spend it on you then let Amanda take any. I have enough money. I will not skint myself, princess. Stop worrying. Miss you. Can’t wait to see you.**

  Oh my gosh, he is so sweet.

  **Okay I will be ready. Can’t wait to see you. xX**

  I turn to Claire. "Donte has managed to get away. He is coming here at ten tomorrow. I won’t be home tomorrow
night. You going to be okay?"

  "Of course I am. You just have fun - but be careful."

  "Thank you, Claire. You’re amazing." I decide to grab a shower and get ready for bed. I walk into our bathroom and jump in the shower. I was just getting out when the doorbell rings. Claire gets the door.

  "Who was at the door?" I shout down after I hear her shut the door. She does not answer, so I go to get of the bed when I'm stopped in my tracks. Donte is standing in my bedroom doorway.

  "What, how? I thought you were coming tomorrow morning," I say, gob smacked.

  "I wanted to surprise you," he says, picking me up and kissing me. Oh, how I have missed this man. I kiss him back with all I have.

  "Wow, I missed you so much. What a perfect surprise!" I whisper as he pulls away.

  "Princess, put some clothes on, dry your hair and pack a few clothes. The hotel is booked and I have waited long enough. I'll wait downstairs with Claire," he says as he kisses me and walks out.

  I hurriedly dress in a white, strapless, knee length dress and very quickly dry my hair. I pack an overnight bag and make my way downstairs, knowing Claire will be grilling Donte. When I walk in the front room, Donte and Claire are at the kitchen table, drinking coffee. He stands when he sees me and walks over to me.

  "You ready, princess?"

  "Yeah. Just let me say bye to Claire."

  "Sure. I will wait in the car," he says, grabbing my bags and walking out.

  "Izzy, I thought you were going tomorrow," Claire says, with a puzzled expression.

  "Yeah, so did I. Are you going to be okay while I'm away?" I ask.

  "Of course, I am. You go have fun. I will see you when you’re back," she says. I smile at her, give her a hug and walk out the door.

  I walk to Donte, who is standing beside the car. "Let's go," he says as he opens my door. I smile at him and he bends to kiss me. I slide in and he shuts the door. He walks to his side and opens the door, then sits. We drive to our new favorite hotel. He pulls up and grabs our bags. We walk into the front lobby to escape to our private hotel room getaway.

  Chapter 20

  We have the key to the president suite again. We walk in the suit and Donte grabs me.

  "Well, princess, what would you want to do now?"

  "Well, actually, I was going to grab an early night. But I guess we still can," I say, giving him my cheeky grin.

  “Okay, we just have to wait for the porter to bring our bags first. So, let’s have coffee" he says, as he walks over to the coffee machine.

  After our coffee, Donte grabs our bags. He slowly walks over to me after placing our things on the sofa.

  "Well, you ready for that early night?” he asks as he reaches me. I nod in response.

  "Well, let's go." He carries me into the bedroom. He walks to the bed as I giggle. He slowly places me on the bed and follows me down. He lays on top of me and his lips seek mine. His teeth grip my bottom lip and he tugs on it. I smile beneath the kiss and start kissing him back. His fingers wander to my breast and then further down. He runs his hand down to the hem of my dress and pulls it down. It goes down past my breasts, my hips and my legs. After stripping me naked, he smiles his sexy smile, his blue eyes sparkling in the light. He removes his clothes, dropping them to the floor and slowly he crawls up the bed. He really does have a beautiful body, nicely toned and slightly tanned. That's when I notice that tattoo. 'Sei sempre nel mio cuore' is written in ink on the left side of his chest. I haven't really took note before, but it’s gorgeous against his skin. He bends and kisses me again. His tongue twists around mine and he tastes delicious. His erection is growing beneath me. I smile because I know I do this to him. My hand reaches down and I squeeze his shaft, dragging my hand up and down. He takes a deep breath, then his hand finds its way back to my breast. My nipple expands beneath his touch. He smiles against my lips and continues his sweet torture upon me. Suddenly, in one swift movement, he rolls me on top of him. He lifts me up and carefully lowers me on his erection. I let out a small groan and throw my head back. He starts to lift his hips back and forth, as I push down on him. I put my hands on his chest to steady myself as he picks up speed. Then suddenly, he pulls me down to his chest, puts his arms around me and rolls over so I'm beneath him again. He puts his hands on the bed beside my head, and raises his body up off mine and continues at a fast, hard pace. I screw my eyes closed as he brings me to the edge. Suddenly, he moves again. He puts his arms under me, causing me to sit up slightly. Then he sits up and takes me with him. Now I straddle his lap with my legs wrapped around his waist. He pushes into me further, making me cry out in joy. It's not long before I'm screaming out as my orgasm rips through me. He follows, screwing his eyes shut and pulling me close to his chest. He lays down, taking me with him. I'm in his arms and he strokes my cheek.

  "I can’t wait until I don't have to let you go," he whispers.

  I snuggle up closer to him. "I can’t wait either."

  "I'll do it, I promise. I'm going to tell her next weekend," he says, staring into my eyes. I grin at him as I reach up to kiss him.

  "What are you going to tell her?" I ask.

  "I don't know yet. I will think of that, don't worry. We will end up together," he says. With that, I fall asleep in his arms.

  I wake the next morning and Donte is still asleep. I roll out of bed quietly and grab the white fluffy bathrobe. I step to the bathroom and climb in the shower. I can’t stop smiling. I finally think I'm in a good place in my life.

  After my shower, I walk back into the bedroom and Donte is still asleep. 'Ha ha, payback time,' I think to myself. I walk to the kitchen, get a small glass of cold water and head back to the bedroom. I walk over to the window and open the curtains. It’s a sunny day outside and Donte rolls over to face away from the rays. I walk to his side of the bed and stand, watching him sleep. In a brave move, I dip two fingers in the cold water and let the drops fall onto his face. He rubs his hands down his face and tries to pull the covers up over his head. I do it again, giggling. He wakes up this time and sits up. "Hey! What you doing?" he shouts.

  "Payback time," I answer with a giggle

  "Oh, I see," he mutters as he leaps out of bed. I step back so he can’t reach me. He suddenly jumps of the bed and tries to grab me, but I run again, squealing. He catches me as I try to open the bedroom door. We both giggle.

  "Hey, careful! You’re going to spill water all over me," I laugh.

  "Never mind a cup of water," he says as he grabs it of me. He suddenly picks me up and throws me over his shoulder. I am almost crying with laughter, but I can’t stop. He walks into the bathroom and straight into the shower.

  "Now, this is payback," he says, before swiftly kissing me. He turns the shower on - freezing cold- and puts me right under the running water.

  "Donte! Stop! It's not funny now. I’m freezing!" I scream, my giggling halts. He reaches over and helps me up. My bathrobe soaked. I storm out the shower, throw my robe on the tiled floor and grab the other one of the back of the door I stomp out of the bathroom, slamming the door behind me. I climb into bed and wrap the duvet round me. I try and get warm.

  Five minutes later, Donte comes out the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.

  "You okay?" he asks, sitting on the end of the bed.

  "I'm fine," I fire back.

  "Come on, princess. It was just a bit of fun" he says, looking wounded.

  "Yeah, but it wasn't funny Donte. I'm freezing." I reply, my teeth still chattering. He stands and pulls the covers over me, he sits behind me, his legs on either side of me and he pulls me into his chest. He kisses my forehead.

  "I'm sorry," he says, pulling me closer. I put my head against his chest. We sit like this for about thirty minutes before Donte moves.

  "Come on, princess. Let’s get you dressed, so I know you’re warm."
