(love is) In the air

"you need your strength for all the Italian orgasms next week".

The next day the two women were busy packing for their holiday, although it didn't take long so they spent the remainder of the day cuddling on the sofa.

It was now 8pm and they were waiting for their Thai food to be delivered. Carina had her head on Maya's chest as she laid on her stomach in between Maya's legs.

Maya scratched Carina's head as she got lost in her thoughts. Carina lifted her head, "what's going on in that head of yours, bambina?".

"oh nothing, I'm just thinking about Italy".

Carina could tell something was worrying her a little, so she sat up, sitting on Maya's knee and grabbed hold of her hand, "tell me what's wrong bella".

Maya sighed lightly, looking away, "I just... it's just... w-what if...".

Carina could see that Maya was struggling to get her words together, so she pressed her lips to hers for reassurance. "Take your time" she stroked the blonde's cheek.

"I'm worried your family won't like me".

Carina was taken aback by what Maya said. It was ridiculous.

"Bella listen to me, they are going to love you. I promise. I have already told them so much about you and they cannot wait to meet you".

"What if they don't like me once they meet me though? I guess I am scared that if they don't like me you might question our relationship because I know how much your family means to you". Maya started to tear up as she spoke.

Carina shook her head, wiping a fallen tear on Maya's cheek, "you are so wrong bella. They will adore you, and if they have a problem with you, which they won't, they'll have me to answer to. Okay?".

Maya nodded, "okay" she said in a whisper. She let out a sigh and smiled looking into the brown eyes she adored so much.

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier bambina?".

"I don't know. I didn't want to dampen the happy mood or ruin what you had planned. I just want this to be perfect".

"It will be. I have spoken to my mama and papa they have invited us to my childhood home for dinner on Tuesday. My sister will be there too. I will be with you every step of the way I promise".

Maya was so grateful for Carina. She had something of her own planned for this week. She just hoped it would fall into place since Carina did most of the planning. Carina didn't even tell Maya where they were staying as she wanted it to be a surprise.

They ate their food and went to bed as they had to be up early for their flight. Maya laid awake most of the night thinking about Carina. Looking at her sleeping so peacefully, she couldn't imagine spending her life with anyone else. She didn't want to. She was so sure about how she felt towards the Italian, and she only hoped she felt the same. She adored her so much, and she couldn't wait to express how she felt. Maya sighed as her mind ran wild, "I guess there's only one way to find out" she whispered to herself, looking over to her bag that had something hidden inside.

Struggling to stay awake, the couple made it to the airport for their 4am flight. They had checked in and were waiting in the first-class lounge. Since it was so early, the airport was not full, which Maya was thankful for as she didn't want to get stopped by any fans. The flight was 14 hours and Italy was 9 hours ahead of LA, meaning they would land at 3am Italy time on Tuesday.

"Do you want anything bambina?" Carina pointed at the menu.

"A coffee please, the strongest they've got" Maya groaned, eyes closed. She ended up getting near to no sleep last night, unlike Carina who did manage to get a few hours and now was wide awake, excited to go back home.
