Spiderman's Sister

Bella Nuova

In fact, we're both damn wrinkled by the time we get out of the bathtub. We dry each other off before I just wrap my arms around James and nestle my cheek against his chest. I missed this physical contact.

Victoria: I needed that.

Bucky: Me too. What do you think if we are a little less strict with ourselves from now on?

Victoria: Can we do this without getting weak?

I ask teasingly and with a raised eyebrow. I have no doubts that we can be naked together without having to have sex.

Bucky: Definitely. Not that I want to brag, but we just lay naked in the bathtub for ages without getting weak.

I turn my head and kiss his chest. He's definitely right.

Victoria: You're right. I guess we can do it.

When we come back into the room and I check my cell phone, I realize how long we were in the tub. Suddenly it's almost 5:00 p.m.

Victoria: Well, I guess I should start getting ready.

Bucky: Do that baby.

Before I go back to the bathroom to do my makeup and hair, i see that James settled in front of the TV. Sometimes being a man is an advantage. He doesn't have to do much and just looks hot. Granted, James would never ask me to put on makeup and all that stuff, but I want it. I quickly slip into a bra and thong - nothing too sexy but still flattering - before disappearing into the bathroom. I apply light makeup - some powder, soft peachy eyeshadow, mascara and peachy lipstick. I curl my hair and gather it so that it falls over my right shoulder. When I come back into the room, James whistles when he sees me and checks me out. Dressed only in boxer shorts, he sits on the sofa. Even knowing I'm testing him unnecessarily, I stroll over to him and lean down. I stand between his legs and am so close to him that our lips almost touch. His hands rest on my thighs while his thumbs brush my skin.

Victoria: I guess you should get ready too baby.

Bucky: Should I?

I can clearly hear that he's turned on and I'm all the more proud of him that he's still holding back.

Victoria: Yep, you should. Otherwise we'll never leave on time.

I peck his lips before I get up and walk over to the closet. Somehow I'm in the mood today for something that is sexy and serious at the same time. I look through different pieces of clothing before I make my decision - a cream colored pencil skirt that is slightly longer than knee length, a white fitted blouse that shows off my breasts perfectly, a wide black belt and black heels. When I see James I have to grin, apparently he wanted to match my outfit - he is wearing black chinos and a white shirt with the top button undone and the sleeves rolled up to the elbows. He looks good enough to eat. I'm standing in front of the mirror putting on my earrings when James appears behind me.

Bucky: The two of us are a damn good looking couple.

Victoria: Indeed we are. No wonder we can't keep our hands off each other.

As if to prove it, he pulls me into his arms and kisses my neck. As soon as I put on the second earring, I turn to him and kiss him. The kiss is a little hotter than it should have been, but somehow I don't really care right now. James has proven himself over the last few weeks and to be honest I'm the one losing patience. It takes a lot of willpower to break the kiss. James looks at me lovingly and hugs me a little tighter.

Victoria: Shall we go?

Bucky: Definitely.

I grab my purse and jacket before we head to the elevator and head to the garage. Like a true gentleman, James holds the car door open for me before walking around the car and getting in himself. I tell him where we have to go and apparently he knows how to get there even without a navigation system. The entire ride, his hand rests on my thigh. When we arrive at Bella Nuova I am surprised to see a queue in front. It seems I haven't been here for a long time. When Aria and I used to come here regularly, there was never a queue. I'm about to suggest that I call Nino so we don't have to wait in line when I see a message from him on my cell phone.
