She parks the Charger and gets out quickly. Logan is waiting for her in the door opening, smiling widely. She runs up to him and kisses him lightly. "Home at last."
He steps aside to let her in and says: "Awesome car Bonnie." She smiles wide while taking her pumps off. She wiggles her toes and breathes out slowly. Logan lifts the snacks from the fryer and shakes them into a bowl.
He hears a zipper and turns around. He watches Scorpia wiggle out of her skirt and hang her jacket on the chair in front of her. She unbuttons her blouse while looking deep into his eyes. She takes it off and hangs it on the chair too. He swallows and stares at the love of his life, only wearing black lingerie and sexy stockings.
She asks: "Cafe? Or upstairs?"
Logan's voice is hoarse when he says: "Upstairs. If you were going to sit in the cafe now, I will never be able to work without seeing you in my head like that."
She laughs and walks through the cafe and up the stairs. Logan grabs the bottle of Amarone, two glasses, and the snacks. When he reaches the top of the stairs, he finds Scorpia sitting on the couch with her legs stretched out. He puts the wine and snacks down on the table and pours her a glass. He hands it to her, before pouring a glass for himself and setting the bowl of snacks down next to her on the couch.
He grabs his glass and sits down next to her, lifting her legs to lay them on his lap. He runs his broken hand over her foot and she stares at it. "Logan? How did it go today?"
He strokes her ankle and says: "Good. My hand hurts, but it's bearable. I'm happy to be allowed to move it. I can lift stuff with it. The only thing I can't do is twist a cap of a bottle. But I'll just use my left hand for that."
He moves his hand up to her knee and looks at her with eyes full of love. "I had a lot of new customers today. Italian dark-haired ones mostly." He smiles and says: "Not that I have anything against them. I got to know quite a few Gentiles already. And Marco said he would like to work in the cafe. I'm testing him tomorrow to see what he knows already."
Scorpia smiles at him and says: "Marco did a cocktail course once and always works the bar in the pizzeria. He's a bit shy, but a hard worker." She eats a snack and moans softly.
"How was your day Bonnie?"
"Hard, but we got a lot of things done and we hired a bunch of people. I have a PA now and a driver, who both live in the hotel. We put Ricardo and his family up in the hotel too."
She tells him all about Matteo and Logan swears.
"Eleven? That poor boy. I'm glad he gets to live with mamma."
Scorpia yawns and Logan asks: "Anything I can do for you, Bonnie? Tell me what you need."
She drinks the last bit of wine left in her glass and eats another snack. "Would you hate me if I told you I wanted to sleep?"
"Oh Bonnie, I could never hate you. How do you even dare to ask me that?"
He rolls her stockings down and she takes off her bra. "I looked forward to being alone with you all day and now I'm sleepy..." Logan pulls her onto his lap and silences her by kissing her. Scorpia takes his shirt off and follows the lines of his tattoo with her finger.
He kisses hers and says: "Come Bonnie. Let's go to bed." She stands up and he follows her with his hands on her hips. She throws herself on the bed and curls up. He lays down behind her and wraps his arm around her belly. "Good night Bonnie. Sweet dreams."
She doesn't answer anymore, because she's already sleeping.
