(Jaya's POV)
I spotted Luca on one of the seats in the waiting area. He looked like he was deep in thought with his hand on his chin absentmindedly chewing his nails. I'm amazed that the sound of my nude heels tapping on the tiled floor didn't break him out of his thoughts.
I wonder what he's thinking about? I curiously thought as I walked up.
He still did not see me as I was standing in front of him. I mean I thought he would have noticed by now my cute floral pink jumper or at least my perfume. I know that I did not intentionally have him in mind when I put this little number on, it was more so for Nico but still. With the way my legs and breasts were looking in this outfit, that should have gotten his attention by now. Call me spoiled, but hey a girl loves it when she is getting paid attention.
I softly cleared my throat and tapped my heel in front of him. I saw his eyes snap out of their laser like focus and look up at me really taking me in for the first time today.
"stop chewing your nails Luca." I jokingly advised.
My sunglasses only had a little tint to them, but I noticed that he was still slow to move from whatever zombie like hypnosis he had put himself under. I mean damn all it took was one turn of the head from Nico and his eyes never would have left my face or body.
I raised my sunglasses onto the top of my head, "what's going on?" I asked a bit more concerned. I hope nothing bad happened at work. I anxiously thought.
My worry started growing when he did not answer me. OK something's definitely wrong. I confirmed to myself, he never takes this long to respond. Did he get demoted at work? Did he miss a deadline? Is his job downsizing and he's getting let go? My thoughts started running wild with all the terrible things that could have gone down while I was in Miami. I think my subconscious was started to show my growing anxiety as I began to nervously fidget running my nails against my phone case and shifting from one foot to the other.
Suddenly he stood up and caught me in one of his bone crushing hugs. Jesus man! I playfully thought as I allowed myself to be enveloped in his death like grip.
"I missed you." his deep voice greeted as I felt his head bury itself in my hair. I softly breathed a sigh of relief, yea well you have a funny way of showing it. I grumbled in thought as I relaxed into his hug. Even though I had made my choice with Nico, a small part of me was thoroughly enjoying this moment with Luca. That was one of the things I loved about him, the way he showed his affection. You always knew where you stood with him and he was not afraid to show how he felt. I know he got that from Nico and I am glad he did; He always gave great hugs.
"you had me scared there for a second Luca. You looked like you were about to lose it." I said into his chest. I know I would have normally called him babe or some other cutesy term of endearment, but it now felt strange and foreign to even consider it.
