{MAFIA ROMANCE} "You, Aria, are like a piece of music that I could listen to, over and over again, and never get tired of hearing." Aria Remington was sitting alone in an empty airport gate waiting for her flight home when she first met Leonardo. Little did she know what she was getting herself into. Leonardo Romano is the Capo of the Italian mafia and never shows any emotion, weakness or care in anyone. Until he met her. But was he selfish enough to bring her into his world? ~~~ {excerpt} Aria. She was here. Right here. She didn't hear me come through the door, too engrossed in the book she was reading. I could hear her humming along to a song, similar to the way we first met. I walked right up to the desk, a gentle smile on my face. She still hadn't realised that I was there so I cleared my throat. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry, how can I help-" she looked up and she froze. Once it had sunk in, she smiled the biggest smile I have ever seen. "Leo!" She leaned over the desk and tried to give me a hug but because I was so tall, she only ended up hugging my torso. "Hello, amore." ~~~ Started- 10/3/22 Ended- 29/7/22 #1 - loving {12/7/2022, 13/2/2023} #1 - goodgirl {12/8/2022} #1 - italy {12/8/2022} #1 - romancestories {17/8/2022, 12/3/2023} #1 - mafiaromance {23/8/2022} #2 - cute {18/8/2022} #17 - love {6/10/22} *contains strong language and some violent scenes*

A dance through time - past and present moments, and a look at the relationship of two girls, a trip to Barcelona, and promises made throughout their lives. -- "Well... It doesn't count that your touch lingers just a bit more on her waist when you're hugging her, right? And it's just simple friendship when you brush unruly strands of hair behind her ear and she blushes? Surely, it's platonic that you let your hands gently run over her back and her shoulder blades when she's asleep with you in bed? And, obviously, it's purely friendly behaviour when you pay for her tickets at the movies with a grin and a wave of your hand, and you spend more and more time alone with her, and for your free choice art assignment you painted her, and you stare at her for a bit too long to be just friends, and when people say the word 'home' your first thought isn't a place, but her (herherherherherher-she's everywhere)... You're doing okay, right?"
