“I can’t believe you’ve got me here on a Saturday night watching this garbage.” Luca moaned as we sat cuddled together on our sofa.
He lay on his back as I lay next to him, my head resting on his chest as he played with my hair and stroked my neck. I loved his touches, he could send shivers down my spine with the tickles and traces of his magic fingers. I was like a contented little pussy cat rubbing up against him right now. The latest week in the celebrity dancing competition on the TV was playing, and in true best boyfriend style he was enduring it just for me on his extremely rare night off.
He’d wanted to go out, even gone so far as to book some swanky restaurant in town but I didn’t want to go out. A night cuddling on the sofa was heaven for me right now.
“Don’t lie, you love it really. Secretly you’d love to wear all that Lycra and sequins.” I teased running my fingers down his chest.
“I reckon I’d be good at the Latin.” He smiled to himself.
I threw my head back laughing and hauled myself up to kneel over him.
“Come on then Fred Astaire show me what you got.”
I pulled him up and across the living room giving him my sexiest dancer eyes as if I knew what I was doing.
He held his arm around my waist and made a frame like the dancers on the TV and I couldn’t keep a straight face as he smouldered at me ready to give the Paso Doble his best shot.
“Hmm I don’t think we’ll be dancing with any stars any time soon.”
I laughed as he spun me round and burst out laughing himself at how awful we were. My feet were tripping over his and I almost fell over more than once.
“We’ll have to take lessons, we can’t do this at our wedding.” He whispered into my ear.
I pulled back and at that exact moment he put his hand into his pocket and fished out a small black velvet box. My eyes grew wide as he knelt down on one knee.
“I know this isn’t our first proposal. I’m hoping this one is more successful than the last.”
I frowned not entirely sure what he was getting at but eager for him to get on with it so I could jump on him and smother him in kisses.
“But since you turned down my plans for a private table for two in the best restaurant for miles I’m kinda stuck doing this here. I can’t wait any longer to do this and well…here with you in my arms is the perfect time. I love you Chloe. Always have always will. You make my life complete, you make me a better man. You’re place is by my side, my place is by yours. I want to love and protect you for the rest of my life. So my angel….”
“Jesus Luca, yes, fuck yes I’ll marry you.” I couldn’t wait any longer either. I flung my arms around his neck and jumped up as he stood, wrapping my legs around his waist like a pet monkey.
“Don’t you want to see the ring?” He chuckled holding me up.
“Yeah but let me breath you in a little bit longer.” I said in a muffle as my face was glued into his neck.
Slowly I peeled myself off him and looked at the box as he held it open to me. The most stunning emerald cut diamond winked back at me, sparkling in the light and cushioned either side by a cluster of diamonds to create the perfect frame for what was a real show stopper of a ring.
“Woah! You didn’t get that out of a cracker.” I smirked.
“No, and you know what Chloe, I brought this ring for you the day after you walked into my club wearing Freddie’s jacket and not much more.”
My mouth fell open. That whole time he’d behaved as if my being around was the biggest inconvenience he’d ever encountered.
“Yeah I know what you’re thinking I was an asshole back then but trust me I was an asshole who was desperately trying to think of a way to win you round. I haven’t got the best moves or chat up lines, but there wasn’t a chance in hell I was letting you walk out of my life again. I wanted to keep you for good this time.”
“Luca I wouldn’t change you for the world. I love you as you are, please don’t ever change…and just for the record I wouldn’t have let you go either.”
He threaded his long fingers into my hair at the nap of my neck and pulled me into him. His lips brushing against mine in a soft but dominant way, his tongue tasting me with long leisurely strokes that sent my head into a spin. His hands held me still as he made love to my mouth and then his hands drifted down my back to cup my ass firmly.
I pulled back loving the look of lust and heat in his eyes as he gave a hint of a frown at why I was stopping him.
“I need to ask Luca, what other time when you proposed?”
He burst out laughing and pushed his forehead against mine.
“Not me sweet heart,
