The Other Side (A Bruno Mars Fan-Fic)

Chapter 9

We step out of the plane and collect our bags. We quickly get a taxi, thanks to Luciana and make our way to the Di Pasqua hotel.

"Isn't that your surname?"

"Yeah, it is"

"Wow, you really are rich huh?"

"Not rich. You're rich Bruno, i'm just very blessed. The money when my parents died came to me and my sister, she wrote her will before she commited suicide and left it to me. So I have a lot of money but i'm definately not rich."

"Really?! That's, a lot for you to take on"

"Haha, it's not really. I must admit it's nice to be able to pay my morgage and bills"

"Preach!"

When we reach the hotel, we pay the taxi driver and make our way into the hotel. It's beautiful, very modern and spacious, with ivory and cream colour decor and plale blues and yellows around the walls and the ceiling is like a big sphere mosiac. It's stunning. The manager recognises Luciana almost immediately and comes up to greet her.

"Ciao Luciana!"

"Ciao amico! How have you been?"

"I've been good, wow. You've grown up. What brings you home?"

"Urmm, just a break I guess. I can't believe you still work here! I haven't seen you since I was 10!"

"You have your fathers eyes. I can recognise from a mile off Luciana."

"Haha, grazie! I have to ask a favour il mio amico"

"Anything"

"Do you still have the suites at the top for my friends and I?"

"Of course, they're the same place. If you can remember where they are?

"I do remember. This place is home"

"Si, well make your way up there when you're ready. Here are the keys."

"Grazie Amo! It's good to see you again!"

We make our way up to the suites and we dump our bags. We decide to go out for a while as it's 10pm because of the time difference from L.A. We walk out of the hotel and towards the main street. There are only a few fans so it's not too bad. When we reach the town it's really quiet. Luciana shows us all the places that she remembers but then it becomes too dark to do anything so we make our way back to the hotel, on the way, the guys feel like going to a club and we divert in there. Luci seems to know everyone in Lazio. She talks to the DJ for a bit and then comes back to us. After a while, the DJ notices me and begins to play Locked Out Of Heaven. We started dancing and then he decided to play Gorilla. Brilliant choice. It's kind of awkward as people get all touchy touchy but it's all in good fun. I notice Luciana in the middle of the dancefloor, well, she can dance too?! She sees me and raises an eyebrow when she notices me staring. She continues to dance and I go up to her. She's so sexy. Her body moves in every-which direction and she's like a belly-dancer.

Luciana's Perspective. 

As the music plays I continue to dance. It seems that Bruno is interested. I dance to the beat of the music as it changes and he walks over to me. He walks in front of me and dances. He whispers in my ear.

"Are you trying to seduce me? Because it's working"

I laugh to myself and bite my lip while looking at him, I could that made him crazy. The DJ says that it's time for a competition and Bruno takes center-stage. He's a really good dancer, he basically impersonates Michael Jackson and it's really good. I smile in surprise as he moonwalks across the floor. Everyone cheers and the music changes to something a bit closer to home. I decide to challenge him and start dancing. Okay, it might be a bit sexy, but i'm going to use what I know to an advantage, I move my body into awkward positions but they look good and definately pay off. Bruno then comes back at me and dances again, while he is, I go to where the pole is standing. He thinks he's won as I walk off but I get a spotlight on me and I twist and turn around it. It wasn't like stripping. More like gymnastics around it. Personally I think I done quiet well.
