You are always on my mind

Chapter 55

"I love you too!"

The days were passing by and Danielle was much better. Her physical condition very favorite her case. The man who did this was arrested and the blonde was released.

With everything that happened, they decided to leave Barcelona immediately. The new destination now was Paris.

Despite the blonde being fully recovered, Stefania couldn't stop worring.

"Love, are you sure you're okay?"
"Yes, baby girl. I'm a hundred percent sure! I mean... no, I'm not."

That startled the brunette...

"Tell me bambina, what's wrong? Do you think you need a doctor?"
"Hey, baby. Stop it. I don't need a doctor. I just need you!"
"B-but you said..."
"What I meant is that I need you to kiss me, my love." Danielle said in a soft tone.

The hazel-eyed girl let out a breath she didn't even know she was holding.

"Stop scaring me!" Stefania said in a crying voice.
"Hey, it's okay. I'm sorry, honey! It wasn't my intention baby! But Stef, my love, I am completely recovered, okay? You must stop being scared all the time, baby girl."
"Y-yes bambina. I know that. But I almost lost you. Do you have any idea of how much terror this brought me?"
"Yes, my love. I understand. But I promise you, I'm better than ever! And I'm not going anywhere without you, my princess! So, let's just move on and leave this freaking episode behind?"
"Yes, I promise I'll do my best." The italian said sobbing.
"Good! That's my girl! Besides, tomorrow we're gonna be in Paris, the city of love. 🥰 I want my baby girl fully focused on us, on our love, right?"
"Yes bambina!"
"Great! I love you!"
"I love you more!"

They were packing when they heard someone knocking on their bedroom's door. It was Bradley and Leah.

"Hi bambina!" Stefania knelt to get Leah's height, holding her tight.
"Come on in! Where is Stef?"
"Oh, she's coming after us."
"Okay."
"Aunt Dani!"
"Hey beautiful girl!" The personal trainer was genuinely happy to see the little girl again.
"I csme to say goodbye..." Leah said pouting.
"Oh baby..." Danielle said hugging her.
"She has to come back to her mom." Bradley explained.

Stefania and Danielle nodded, giving rhe actor a knowing look.

So the hazel-eyed girl knelt down once again and said:

"Don't worry, bambina. We'll be together as soon as you can notice, right?"
"But aunt Stef, mom Irina doesn't care about me. She doesn't like me!

Gaga arrived and got instantly pissed at Irina, because she knew that the model really didn't care about the little girl. She just used her to blackmail Bradley.

"Bambina, look at me. Of course your mom loves you. She just has her own way..."
"No aunt Stef, she doesn't. But it's okay, because I have mom Stef ,who trully loves me!"

The little girl's words broke everyone's hearts. Stefani ran to hugg Leah with teary eyes.

"You're gonna take her away from that bitch!" The singer whispered to Bradley, who instantly agreed.

"Come here my baby. I love you so much, with all my soul! More than anything! You know that, right?"
"Yes mommy!"
"Good girl! So you know this is not a goodbye, it is just a see you soon, right?"
"Yes mommy!"
"Good! That's my girl! Now, we'd better go before you and dad get late, okay?"
"Okay mom."
"See you soon aunt Dani and aunt Stef."
"We'll see you soon mi bellina!" Stefania replied.
"Hey bubba, we'll meet again very soon and when it happens, we're gonna play a lot, deal?" Danielle said.
"Deal aunt D!"
"Hey, Leah?"
"Yes aunt Stef?"
"Thanks for the balloons tip! Your aunt D loved it. This saved me from such a trouble!" Stefania thanked the little girl who smiled wide.
"Anything for you, aunt Stef!"

Everybody laughed. They hugged Leah and Bradley. Gaga took them to the airport. After their departure, the pop star came back to continue the trip with her friends.

"Fuck, it broke my heart to leave Leah..."
"Yes. Poor girl. Is that true? About her mother?" Stefania asked.
"Unfortunately, yes. Irina just uses my little angel to hit Bradley..."
"Fuck, what a bitch!" Stefania stated letting her italian temper out.
"How can she do something like that?"
"Baby, that's a question I ask myself every single day!" Gaga replied.
"Is there anything we can do about it?"
"I don't know. Bradley is gonna see his lawyer, to make the arrangements. He'll ask for her custody."
"I want you both to know that I can help if you need me. Actually it will be such a pleasure." Stefania said.
"Thank you so much. I think he's gonna be more than happy to have you taking care of this case..."
"Sure! We love Leah. We want her to be happy! And I will do everything in my power to help. I promise!" The attorney stated.
"Thank you so much. It really means a lot!" Stefani said with teary eyes.
"Stef, you know my girlfriend is the best attorney in this fucking whole world. She's gonna make that bitch -Irina- 🤢🤮 feel sorry for treating our baby girl the way she does! Some women didn't deserve to become a mother. She is disgusting!!!! I can't get over seeing that for this bitch, Leah is just an instrument of blackmail! Honey, show her that a child as sweet and loving like Leah is to be loved, not just seen as something to blackmail someone! Besides, a mother is supposed to love her child, not act like this!"  Danielle was outraged.
"I have no doubts Dani!" Stefani replied.
"Love, I can't understand this woman as well. She's disgusting. But I promise you both, if Bradley trust me, I'll make this dispecable person understand that a child isn't a bargaining chip or an object you use to get what you want!" Stefania was equally pissed.
"I'm sure you will, amore mio!" The blonde took her chances to speak italian with her girlfriend, just to spoil her.
"Mmm, amore mio, huh?"
"Yes. Amore mio!"

They started kissing hard, when they heard Stefani clean her throat.

"Now, let's pack. Paris is waiting for us!"
"I can't wait to be with the love of my life in the city of love!" The blue-eyed gir stated.

And kissing sofly and smiling during the kisses, the couple finished packing, waiting anxiously for the next day.
