Deep Breath | Daniel Ricciardo

Part Seventy-Seven

That was the hardest an orgasm had ever hit me. We stayed still for a while, catching our breaths, our bodies were still pressed on each other, sweat dripping on both of us.

Watching him button the material of his shirt I couldnt help but smile, as it only got a little lower from his chest, leaving a lot of skin in display. I bit down on my lip as our eyes met and he smirked at me.

I jumped down front the counter balancing on his arms. I walked slowly to the door, "erm lib" I followed Daniels eyes smiling down at the torn underwear resting on my thigh. "Sorry about that" he smirked and bend down to help to slide them off. "I'll be keeping those" he said sliding them into his pocket.

"Daniel absolutely not" I went to reach out for them but his hands were higher than I could reach.

"You want to walk out holding them?" I groaned in response and followed him out. We'd faced some awkward questions when we had gone back to the dance floor and headed back to our room not long after.

We headed off pretty early the next morning from the hotel back to my apartment. We'd be staying there until the Saturday to do some work in the office.

The week went by super fast, work was crazy for both me and Daniel. Lots of the British media wanted to talk to him after his win as we were staying in the country for a few days and the bbc were interested in doing a top gear episode or interview with him. I'd scheduled as much as I could while we were still in the Uk so we were busy right up until  Friday night.

I'd managed to spend some time with Lauren and had a couple of girls nights out with her. She and Jamie had told everyone about their relationship and I couldn't help but be jealous when I saw them walking round hand in hand at work. Daniel had noticed my shift in mood and made sure I knew he was planning on telling Christian soon. But that's what he always said. I started to doubt that he would ever want to tell anyone. The dark voices were creeping back in.

'You know that he is embarrassed to be with you and you just can't accept it. He never wanted anyone to know about it, you were just a slut that he could get in bed. He only stayed because he was scared of the fall out. He probably hates being round you, the thought of your body makes him want to vomit'

I couldn't talk to Daniel about it and now I felt guilty talking to Lauren. This was her time to be showered in love and share it with the world. She didn't care what anyone else had to say, she was happy and we could all see it.

Despite the distraction on my current love life drama i'd managed to get everything done so that I could have the next four days off with my family. Michael had already headed back to his house in London on Thursday and we were heading to mine on Saturday morning.

We headed up to my family home in little Aston  at around 10am. I'd had an unscheduled lie in when Daniel decided to not wake me up and let me sleep while he packed and tidied the apartment for me. It took us nearly 5 hours to get there after there was an accident on the motorway. I was gutted, it should only have taken 2 hours. I'd lost nearly a whole day with them. We arrived at around 3pm and I was so happy to be there.

We spent the time with just my parents as Luca was out all day. It was like a dream to have everything work so perfectly. My Papa and mom were trying so hard to make Daniel feel at home and settled. I knew it was going to be a magical birthday.

We headed to bed after a long day, I was so happy that I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve. "I love that you're here" I whispered into Daniels ear as we slipped into a deep sleep.

I'd had multiple nightmares that night, I knew being home would cause some triggers but this was intense. The first time I'd screamed out and fought Daniels arms off me. My Papa had come running in and saw the state I'd got myself into. It took a while to calm me down but he stayed with me until I could breathe again. I snuggled up to Daniel as soon as I realised he was close and my Papa sat on the end of the bed watching me closely. The second time was not as bad, Daniel just pulled me into him and I pulled myself out of the dream. He was my rock.
