"Always be a better person, not for others but yourself"
My tearful eyes slowly looked up to meet the familiar blue orbs of the man I was glad to call my love. Eyes where I thought would be filled with disgust and disappointment at my sudden revelation were instead reflecting the same love and pride I never thought I would receive from anyone.
**************
Regina Jones is the most determined and independent person you could ever meet. She is never a patient lady and this meant there is only a certain amount of bullshit she can take from anyone. Unsocial and intimidating she seemed to everyone but under all that hard exterior was a kind, compassionate and lovable person that only a few people have the benefit of seeing.
Unfortunately, her intimidating aspect is what usually sent all the potential young men running for the hills, that is until she meets the handsome, funny and easy going Alessio Barbieri. He was the type of man admired by many, and his maturity, pleasant charm and caring attitude made him the lover most women would want to have but Regina seemed to be an exception.
And not because she wasn't attracted to him but because of something that kept holding her back. A secret she had long held within her that could possibly break the strong friendship and relationship she currently had with those around her.

He backed her into a corner, she was looking everywhere but him, she couldn't, she shouldn't. His hand toyed with the hem of her dress. He hesitated. His mind was racing with thoughts of how he shouldn't, he couldn't. Her heartbeat picked up, her breaths quickened, her body needed him. He saw the affect he had on her. Pulling up her dress, he saw she had no panties on. Enraged he wrapped his hand around her neck, choking her, making her look into his eyes. His other hand slid into her folds, she was soaking wet, just for him. She whimpered in response. She couldn't get enough. Her hips rocked back and forth along with his fingers. He added another. Yet to kiss her, he pushed the thought out of his head. Her body began to rock faster, causing moans to fall from her mouth. He bent down to her ear and whispered, "Perché non possiamo semplicemente stare lontani gli uni dagli altri belli?". (Why can't we just stay away from each other beautiful?).Concluida
