Little Bambina

Twenty-four

Allison

"So did you use protection?"
I look away embarrassed and start playing with my fingers.  Kelli gasps.
"Bitch, you didn't! Are you fucking stupid?"
"It didn't cross my mind." I say rolling my eyes
"I thought I told your ass to get on birth control. All the advice I've given you has gone to waste." She throws her hands in the air.

"Look, it just happened okay. And I told you I was gonna go to the gynecologist with you. Besides he got me a morning after pill."
"That's great that he got you that cause you ain't ready to be a momma bear heck I ain't ready for you to be a momma bear. With that being said, getting pregnant shouldn't be your only concern." She gives me a weary look.

"Out with it already."

She scoots closer to me grabbing my hands and looking me in the eyes. This has me nervous.
"You don't know his health status and he doesn't know yours. You can't just be having unprotected sex like that. What if you get an STI? I'm not saying he has any sexual disease but you gotta be careful and look out for yourself and your partner. Y'all should like go get checked together or something. I'm saying all this cause I'm tryna look out for you, okay? You're my best friend and sometimes I have to give you the hard truth."
I feel my eyes get teary. I jump on her and hug her tightly. "I love you so hard." I mumble.
"I know, chica. And I love you too."

                        
                                      

We are currently at a restaurant having a late lunch cause someone took long to get ready.
"I want the shrimp Alfredo. I've never had it before, sounds delicious." Kelli says closing her menu after going through it for barely a minute.
"We're not doing this again, Ally." She sighs.
"Doing what?" I innocently ask knowing very well she's about to fuss over my indecisive self. I really can't help it. I struggle to make up my mind on what to eat and she hates that apparently I take too long. Impatient ass.

She waves her hand to the waitress who makes her way to our table.
"Are you ready to order?" Asks the cute waitress and I can't help but stare at her.

"Yes. We would like two shrimp Alfredos and two more margaritas."

"Aright."  She takes both menus and smiles at me before leaving.

"Could you stare any longer? Dang!"
Kelli says irritatedly.
"What? I thought she's cute."
"I didn't know you swung that way." She smirks at me and I roll my eyes at her stupidity. "I'm just appreciating her beauty. Nothing wrong with that."
"I didn't-"
"You man stealing whore!"

I look up in shock to find a woman standing at our table glaring at me. She looks oddly familiar.
"Is this bitch talking to me or you?" Kelli questions.
"Obviously she's talking to me since she's staring daggers at me." Honestly I couldn't be bothered with this cause clearly she's mistaken me for someone else. I internally roll my eyes. Queue the drum roll cause I'm about to lose my shit over this woman who is causing a scene. All I wanted was to have lunch in peace.

"Alright, state your name and what you want." I say to her in a bored tone pretending to type on my phone not even glancing her way.

"You stole my man! You took him from me. Because of you I lost not only him but my job. I hate you!" She points her index finger at me accusingly.
Now everyone in the restaurant is looking our way probably thinking I'm a home wrecker. Sigh. Ay madre mía.

"Uhh...who is your boyfriend? Or rather who was your boyfriend? Cause I have no idea what you're talking about."
Honestly I'm so confused at this point cause I don't know who she's referring to. I didn't steal anyone's boyfriend, did I?

"Carlos Bonfonelli. You took him from me!" She yelled and I winced at how loud her voice is. Does she have to be so damn loud.

Now I remember the bitch. She was his secretary. She can have him cause they clearly deserve each other.

"Wait wait wait...hol'up." Kelli gestures with her hand indicating that the woman should be quiet.
"This the bitch?" She asks me.
"Unfortunately."
Kelli starts laughing hard cackling like a damn hyena. This girl better stop embarrassing me. I groan covering my face.

"Oh- I'm...I'm-sorry. I just find this so funny."

"What's so funny? You think this is a joke?!" Says the woman who's name I don't know.

"Girl, you can have him for all I care. So, could you please let us be I'm trying to have a peaceful lunch and you're causing an unnecessary scene." I wave her off but she doesn't move an inch, still snarling at me.

Awkward.

"Bitch is you deaf?! Leave!" Kelli shouts at her scaring her in the process and she walks out of the restaurant fast.
"There's no need for yelling." I say to Kelli.

"She clearly didn't hear you if she was still standing here."
"Yeah whatever. I've lost my appetite."
"Lucky me cause I'm ravenous and that means I'll have double shrimp Alfredo." She says excitedly squirming in her seat.
"I'll have my food to-go."
"Fuck off."
"I love you too". I say blowing her a kiss.

                                       

"Luca..." I groan trying to get off him. He has me straddled over him in his home office. He moves my hips slowly over his groin.

He doesn't stop but only continues to pepper my neck with sweet kisses.

"I missed you, bambina. I haven't seen you in almost 2 weeks."
"I know. School had me busy."
"Did you miss me?"
I look away trying hard not to smile.

"No."

I bury my face in the crook of his neck inhaling his manly scent that I missed so much. I sigh in contentment. He slowly rubs my back making his way down to my ass.
"I know you missed me that's why you were so bent on calling me every night before you sleep."

"I was just checking up on you. Making sure you're good."
"Hmm."

We fell into a comfortable silence my head resting on his chest hearing his heartbeat.

"How old are you?" I ask him. I have no idea how old he is. If I should guess he's probably in his mid twenties. I can't believe I don't know my own boyfriend's age, this is so embarrassing.

"I'm old enough, bambina." He replies playfully and I pout.

"I'm serious, Luca."
"I'll tell you tomorrow."

I roll my eyes and sigh. I can't get nowhere with him.
"Ouch. What was that for?" I rub my left butt cheek that he just smacked for no reason.

"You rolled you eyes at me."
"No fair." I pout and he gives me a quick peck on the lips.
"I don't think I like you anymore."
"Well, too bad cause I love you and I'm not letting you go, bambina. You're stuck with me. You're mine."
