I'll Give You What You Want

Release

   It's been a few days since we recorded the video. As soon as we got back to the offices I practically ran home. I hadn't felt that way before and it terrified me.
   "You're so cute!" Vic squealed at me from the other side of the couch.
   "Shut up! I'm so embarrassed!" I bury my face in the pillow on my lap.
   I told her what I was feeling and she kept making fun of me. She had stayed the night just to have some girl time. I told Sarah too and she took Victoria's side on FaceTime last night.
   I propped my chin on the pillow and looked at Vic. She had a big grin on her face as her fingers where typing away on her phone. Probably filling in Thomas and Ethan. Every now and then she's let out a giggle.
   "The boys are on their way over, they're bringing over pizza and some alcohol for us." She got up to stretch and I leaned back and nodded, mentally preparing myself to see Damiano.
   I felt like a high schooler with such an intense crush. As if I never liked anyone before. I was engaged for fucks sake, but the way I'm feeling now is completely different. So much more hitting me deep inside.
   "I'm going to shower if we're having other people over." I got up and started heading upstairs.
   "Oh sure, use that as your excuse. Make sure you use that coconut scented shampoo you have! Smells delicious." Vic winks at me and I just shake my head.
   I get up the stairs and head to the bathroom. I turn the water on to start heating up and grab a towel and my robe to be ready when I'm done.
I slide out of my clothes and step in and put my head back letting the water run over me. I take in a deep breath and relax. I take a few minutes like this before I start my routine. As I'm lathering my hair I hear her giggle.
"Vic oh my god what are you doing?" I question as my hands are in my hair.
"Teasing Dami!" She says and I hear the FaceTime ring.
"We're leaving, we're leaving!" I hear him say as if he was expecting her to yell at them. I smile at the fact that they're all scared of her.
"Dami guess where I am." I can hear the evil grin in her voice.
"Well I hope at Becca's because that's where we're heading..." he answers a little confused.
"No duh, but where at her place am I?" I hear her rustling the curtain.
"Vic I swear to god if you open that I will kill you!" I call above the water as I rinse my hair out.
She ignores my pleas and pulls the curtain back, I turn towards the wall and scream at the sudden exposure to cold air.
"Nice ass!" She laughs out loud and I turn my head to look at her. Her phone right in front of her face.
"Turn the camera off!" I swat at her, trying not to laugh. We had been drinking a bit already before and the boundaries between us were slim to begin with.
"Oh calm down he can't see." She gives an evil grin to the man on the phone.
"Vic, brutta stronza!" Dami's voice carries from the phone. Vic shoves the screen in my face and I see Dami.
His eyes go wide as I give him a smile, my hair is slicked back and face bare of any makeup.
"Sarai la morte di me." He groans and Vic take the phone back as she lets out a huge laugh.
I stuck my tongue out at her as she leaves with Dami still on the phone, I close the curtain and continue.
When I'm done I turn the water off and step out into the cold air of the bathroom. I dry off and wrap my hair in the towel, I put my robe on and head into my room. I find Vic lounging on my bed, talking to the boys about which drinks to get. I let her keep talking as I move around the room and gather some clothes.
I throw on a simple dark green cropped tank top and some jeans. I let my wet hair fall from the towel to just air dry. I walk back to the bathroom to put some mascara on as I hear knocking on the door.
"Coming!" Vic calls out for me and goes to open the door.
"You act as if this is your place." I hear Thomas say as he walks in. I hear their voices travel up the stairs and them out down the food and drinks. I take one last look in the mirror and head down to join them.
As I found the corner from the stairs my eyes meet his. He drinks me in and I feel naked under his gaze. I walk over to everyone and hug the guys, Ethan first.
"Oh wow you do smell good, I thought she was exaggerating." Ethan points to Vic who is already stuffing her face.
"Thanks," I let out a small laugh and hug Thomas. He picks me up a little bit as we hug.
"It's been so long since we've just hung out." He grins.
"I know we've all been so busy!" I say as I walk to Damiano to give him a hug.
He wraps his arms around my waist and puts his face in my neck, I wrap my arms around him. He pulls away almost too quickly.
"You do smell good." He whispers to me and joins the gang.
We all immediately dig in and pour our drinks. Thank god we have off tomorrow.
