Second drink: they bring us dinner. It's delicious. Joshua speaks with his mouth full as if he had tried something like this in years.
In fact, I don't think he's ever tried it.
He speaks with his mouth full:
"This dish should be there the day I have a restaurant, it's delicious!"
"One thing at a time, coffee first," Leonardo urges. "Do you have any models in suspense? I've read a lot about the owner of Starbucks, the first founder of the company, but I want to know your ideas."
And they start talking about the business model while I'm left swatting flies. I'm interested in business, I'm very interested in it, but it really makes me afraid that these two will close deals.
Third cup.
"Another bottle, please!"
"Leonardo, I shouldn't..."
"Easy, sweetie. I know, you like it."
Joshua clears his throat.
We already know you're there, that's why he does it.
fourth cup.
"And what about your business, Mr. Ferrariiii?" Joshua asks him, letting out a laugh that leaves me worried.
Especially since I also gave a stupid giggle when listening to him so drunk.
"I am very happy to have made an investment in a women's lingerie brand. Investigating the matter I found out that there is men's lingerie, curious, right?"
"Of course, there is," I blurt out." And it fits very well. It is attractive to most women, as long as the man knows how to wear it."
"To the eye of man, something like that is not always attractive," Leonardo says with a tremendous prejudice that makes me angry.
"If you're going to wear it for another man to see, you should agree on what you both like," I tease.
"I prefer that you put on some garters and I take them off with my teeth."
Oh! Damn crazy hot Italian, my boyfriend is here!
Joshua jumps this time:
"She's the lingerie matron! Feminine of course. She has created a great business about it, to the point that she will have a CEO and become a full-fledged businesswoman. I'm proud of my girl!"
"Of course I know," intervenes Leonardo.
There it goes.
Don't get in there, please, get out of there.
"That's why I invested in her business," he adds.
"I think we should order another." I finish my glass.
" One more bottle, of course"Leonardo orders it. Third bottle.
"Did you already know each other from that symposium and...Wow!"
"Of course," Leonardo tells him. "But we didn't meet there."
"I really don't think it's necessary." I kick him in the shin which ends up hitting Joshua hard instead.
"Ouch!"
"Sorry!" I jump. What the hell is he doing with his feet on the other end of the table!
"I met her at a club in Milan."
"Joshua, it's not what you think, don't believe him, please," I urge, unable to stop Leonardo.
I can feel my fiancé's features fall in disappointment.
"Leonardo, enough," I insist.
" The club...? You told me you hadn't gone, that you left there..."
"Of course, we left," insists Leonardo.
"Enough!" I insist.
He keeps doubling down:
"After fucking that night, she left this Italian's bed without explanation and that's why I'm here. I've come to find her and claim her."
"Your bed? Is this a fucking joke?"
This time Joshua gets aggressive.
Shit!
"No, no, no," I murmur, stunned.
"Nobody's ever fucked me like that, mate. Your girl is a bomb and I want her to be mine forever."
Then I can't take it anymore and I hit him in the face with a very hard slap that leaves my hand on fire.
