You are always on my mind

Chapter 22

"Mmm I'm more than okay! Now come here, let me get to know you a little better."

They spent the night exploring their bodies, their mouths. Between exciting caresses, delicious kisses and hands sliding all over their bodies, but no sex. Not yet. They still felt the need to get to know every bit of each other's bodies, to know each reaction before they got to sex. Not that they weren't looking forward to it, of course they were, but right now, after what had happened that day, they wanted to do everything right, take their time, so they wouldn't risk putting it all down.
It was an amazing night. So much love, so much affection present there. Nothing else mattered, just the fact that they were there, together. Confessed lovers who didn't need to prove them of their worth, they were just knowing their essence, valuing each smile, each hug, each kiss exchanged full of love and implicit promises. They couldn't get enough of looking deep into each other's eyes and saying "I love you!" And then they smiled because they realized that their happiness only depended on themselves. And at that moment sex wasn't necessary to give them that. Although the ardently desire they had for each other's bodies, but what they needed at that moment wasn't conecting their bodies, they would have too much time for this, but their souls, their hearts. After that, sex would happen naturally for sure.

"I have no words to tell you how thankful I am for having you here with me, inside my arms bambina!" Said the italian.
"Me neither, baby! You know what? Stefani is the best! Thanks to her we're here today..."
"Yes, I must agree with you bella. She's amazing!"
"You know it was her who helped me to understand my feelings for you?"
"Really? Tell me more about this, please."
"Well, at first I didn't realize the obvious. And everyone around me had already noticed... 🤦🏻‍♀️ it was already love before it was baby! 🥰 And Stefani did her best to show me that. She never told me I was so in love with you, she used to tell me that it was something  I would have to notice by myself." (The blonde had a smile on her lips and a lost gaze while she caressed the brunette's back and kissed her neck, taking a little longer there, just to feel and absorb her girlfriend's delicious scent...)
"Oh my God, really?"
"Yes. I love Stefani. she's an amazing human being. She deserves the world!"
"Yes, I totally agree! We owe her! You know she helped me too? She counseled me and soothed me when I despaired... I didn't know how you felt about me, but she never let me give up on you, on us. She always encouraged me."
Stefani is the best friend anyone can have! She will be our maid of honor when we get married!" (The ocean-eyed girl instantly regreted of what she just said, not knowing how the italian would react to that comment, after all, they had just met and made the relationship official...) but the hazel-eyed girl just replied carefree:

"Yes, for sure!"

Danielle couldn't be happier!

"I love you, Stef!"
"I love you too, Dani!"

And so they downed the day. Between kisses, caresses, confessions, promises and revealing conversations. The italian was the first to snuggle into Danielle. Then the blonde also cuddled into her girlfriend, and so they finally surrended to sleep, bodies completely united, almost becoming one.

Around 11 am, Stefani woke up. It took her a few minutes to realize where was she, how did she get there and then she remembered everything and smiled. But one question hit her: where the hell was Danielle? Because there was only one bed, huge, by the way, but she slept alone and there was no sign of the blonde...

The singer got up and ealked around the house... and still no sign of them either  so her mind took flight...

💭 Did things turn out better than I thought? Did you sleep together 😁🤭😈?
The pop star couldn't help but smile... so she decided to take a peek into the italian's room.

💭 I hope you're both dressed. Hahahaha.

She knocked lightly on the door. As there was no answer and she didn't hear any moaning, she decided to take her chances and opened the door. And then her heart melted with the scene she saw. Danielle and Stefania cuddled, completely clinging with their faces cuddled into each other's neck. The singer couldn't contain herself and took her cell phone to take a picture of them. But something was weird...

💭 Why the fuck are they dressed? I mean, they're wearing the same clothes they were wearing yesterday, what means they haven't taken them off. 🤔 It's impossible to believe... you didn't have sex? 😲 Damn Dani, you guys deserve a trophy if you really could control all this lust you feel for each other. 

So Gaga closed the door carefully so as not to wake them up.

A few minutes later Stefania woke up and smiling like a fool she began to kiss her girlfriend all around. Danielle smiled wide even before opening her eyes properly.

"Buongiorno amore mio!" (Good morning my love)
"Mmm good morning my love!"
"Mmm someone seems to have woken up all lazy today 😊🥰."
"Mmm just a little bit." Answered the blue-eyed girl pouting.

Stefania smiled.
Both girls leaned in for a passionated kiss. Stefania rolled on top of Danielle and the blonde stated:

"Oh my God! If I'm still dreaming, please let me keep dreaming forever!

The italian laughed and repljed:

"Mmm, so it means you've been dreaming about me, huh?"
"Mhm. And I must admit that my dreams are not even close to be pure... 😈" said the american girl.
"Haha, you know what? I must admit that we're on the same page, bambina! There isn't a night that I don't dream about you. And my dreams are not even close to be pure as well!"

The blonde melted! And they kissed again...

"But no, amore mio, you're not dreaming! This is really happening!" Said the hazel-eyed girl.
"Jesus, I would wake up like this, with you by my side every single day for the next million years. Maybe more. 🥰😍"
"Me too, bella!"
"I love you so much, Stefania!"
"I love you more, Danielle!"
"Nah... that's impossible!"
"Mmm, baciami!"
"As you wish, baby girl!"

After a delightful make out session, both women got up and went after Stefani to check on her.

The girl was on the sofa, watching something on tv. The couple ran to hug her. Everyone smiling, really happy.

"Are you feeling better, baby?" Asked Danielle.
"Oh, I'm perfectly splendid! And you girls?"
"Amazing! Couldn't be better, thanks to you! Replied the blonde, and the italian just agreed.

Both women kissed Stefani's cheeks, thanking her for everything.

"Well, what are you willing to do today? I just want to spend some time with the love of my life!" Stated Stefania.
"Mmmm, the love of your life huh? Maybe you should see something I got..." teased Gaga.
"What is it?" Asked the brunette
Then Gaga showed them the picture she took a few minutes ago and the three of them melted.

"You guys know what? Despite of everything that happened, I wouldn't change a thing! To witness your happiness, makes every single moment, includding the bad times we had yesterday worth it!"
"Grazie mile! Thank you for everything. For being this wonderful human being and friend, for change your flight plan and your travel itinerary just to bring this angel to me. But most of all, I wanna thank you for helping us to understand what we were feeling was the greatest love of all and for giving us the help we needed to be here now, as a couple! I owe you my joy and my happiness Stef!" Stefania said hugging her friend with love.

Gaga couldn't avoid some tears of happiness and emotion. The singer just said while hugged Stefania back:

"Dani knows what I am going through, and I'll tell you later. For now, you just need to know that it's hurting a lot. But two friends called me to take care of their pain... so, I put mine in my pocket and went! I love you girls!!!"
