Chapter Sixty One

"Fine. I'll do it myself,"

Before Stefania could say anything else, Caterina's lips were on hers and she felt something flip over in her stomach. Suddenly, it was like they were back at the top of the auditorium. Kissing. They were kissing and it was magical. Back then it was magical. Right now it was wrong but Stefania didn't pull away, though she didn't kiss back either.

"Luc," She mumbled and placed a hand on her chest, pushing back gently.

"No, Stefania, please. We can finally be together," Caterina felt herself choking up as her mind turned into a hurricane of thoughts and she tried to kiss Stefania again. "We can finally-"

"Excuse me?" Stefania jumped as she pushed Caterina away who stumbled back in shock and saw Danielle standing there, eyebrows furrowed as she looked back and forth between the two of them. "Excuse me?" She repeated as the initial shock suddenly turned into anger. "Stefania?"

"I'm sorry. It's not, that's not what-"

"It was me," Caterina said, raising her hands guiltily as she wiped her eyes.

"I don't want to hear shit from you," Danielle seethed as she turned her back towards Caterina and stared at Stefania expectantly. "What do you- what even...?" Danielle started to breathe heavier as she tried to wrap her mind around what she just saw, her eyes burning into Stefania's.

"Do you have your key?" Stefania asked, clenching and unclenching her jaw. Danielle took a second to understand what she asked, her face blank as she reached into her pocket.

"Danielle, honestly. It was all me, Stefania didn't do anything-"

"I said I don't want to hear shit from you," Danielle spat out as she pushed her key into the lock of her trailer.

"Don't take it out on her," Caterina pleaded, her eyes darting back and forth between Danielle and Stefania. "It was me. It was me. She didn't even-" The blonde ushered Stefania into her trailer and shut the door, cutting Caterina off mid sentence.

"Danielle, I'm sorry," Stefania whispered as she looked at her girlfriend who leant against the wall, staring at her feet. "I didn't know... she just kissed me and I didn't kiss back... it was just-"

"Just what?" Danielle muttered, crossing her arms over her chest. Stefania walked over to her and held her face in her hands as she made Danielle look at her. "Stefania," Danielle mumbled as she tried to shake Stefania's hands off and keep her head down.

"No. Look at me," Stefania tightened her grip a little as Danielle lifted her gaze, blue eyes angry and hurt. "We were talking and she said... well she said a  lot and I had to let her speak, I owed her that and she was getting mad and then she just kissed me but I did not kiss her back. I tried to push her off, I did," Danielle's eyes filled with tears as she listened to Stefania, her chest felt tight and heavy.

"You clearly didn't push her hard enough," Danielle said. "Can you get off of me?" She held one of Stefania's wrists and pushed slightly but she didn't budge. "Stefania. Get off of me," She gritted her teeth as she put her hands on her girlfriend's waist and pushed her back a little. She was angry and she needed Stefania to listen to her.

"You're not listening to me," Stefania said, still refusing to move away from Danielle.

"No, Stefania. You're not listening to me," In a quick movement, Danielle spun them around and pushed Stefania against the wall, her breathing heavy as she eyed up the brunette. She couldn't quite figure out what was running through her mind. She was angry, that was a given. After knowing the history, a complicated one at that, between Stefania and Caterina, it felt a lot more weighted. She was hurt because she never had a doubt in her mind about trusting Stefania, but that was different now. And she was in denial because Caterina said it was her fault and Stefania said that she didn't kiss back but Danielle still saw it happen.

"If that happened and I didn't show up, would you have told me?" Daniella asked, watching Stefania intently.

"Yeah, I would have," Stefania said, nodding her head. At least she answered quickly. "Danielle, I am so sorry that it even happened and I would never have-"

"Wait. I just...Gosh," She sighed and loosened her grip on Stefania's waist as she tried to even out her breathing. Danielle could feel anger taking over again and she hated it. She hated feeling this way towards Stefania. The blonde looked back up into Stefania's eyes, she could feel her heart pounding against her chest and the image of her and Caterina popped back into her mind.

"I-" Danielle didn't let another single word slip out of Stefania's mouth as she crashed their lips together in a rough kiss. Stefania kissed back with just as much passion, she wasn't going to question it. Danielle's hand slid under Stefania's top and she grabbed at her chest, nails digging into her skin, the aggression turning them both on fast.

"Fuck, Danielle," Stefania mumbled as she pushed against her girlfriend and trailed her hands down her body. Danielle felt like her skin was on fire as she fiddled with the button and zip on Stefania's jeans. The brunette let out a soft moan and bit down on Danielle's bottom lip as her fingers trailed further down.

"You're all mine. Do you hear me?" Danielle whispered, as she trailed kisses down Stefania's neck, biting and sucking and leaving the taller woman squirming against the wall, her legs getting week as Danielle pushed two fingers in. "Hm?"

"Ye-yes. All yours," Stefania breathed out as she gripped onto the back of Danielle's neck and closed her eyes. Danielle was relentless, her fingers pumping quickly as she moved her thumb a little higher and started to apply more pressure, making Stefania push her head against the wall.

"Good. Keep it that way," Danielle said as she used the hand that wasn't buried in her girlfriend to grab her jaw and pull her back in for a bruising kiss. Maybe this wasn't the healthiest way to get her anger out but it did feel good. Stefania's moaning was getting louder and the grip she had on the back of her neck was getting tighter as she felt her climax build up. Danielle bit down on Stefania's bottom lip as she added more pressure with her thumb.

"Don't- don't stop," Stefania mumbled as her hips bucked forward and and she moved her hand into Danielle's hair, gripping tightly. The blonde continued her movements as Stefania lost more and more control of her body until she slumped against the wall, her chest heaving as her orgasm crashed into her. Danielle pulled her fingers out and sucked them clean as Stefania watched her, mind hazy.

"I might have made a bit of a mess," Danielle said as she glanced down. "Let me clean that up real quick," Stefania's chest was still heaving from her orgasm and she didn't quite get the chance to catch her breath before Danielle had pulled down her jeans and panties and started to kiss and lick her inner thighs, slowly making her way up.

"Danielle," Stefania moaned as she tangled her hands in her girlfriend's hair and tried her best to stay up against the wall. Danielle's tongue was doing wonders and Stefania could already feel herself close to another climax. The blonde looked up at her girlfriend from her place on the floor and grabbed her hips to still her as she added more pressure with her tongue. Danielle could feel little twitches spreading through Stefania's body as her moaning got louder and she mumbled a string of swear words and her name. "I'm close, I'm close,"

She didn't even need to tell Danielle and with another few flicks of her tongue, Stefania's orgasm crashed into her, the grip she had on Danielle's hair tightening even more before she felt her body get weak, her heavy breathing filling the trailer.

"My legs feel like jelly," Stefania laughed softly as she did up the button on her jeans and Danielle wiped her face.

"Mhm," Danielle looked at Stefania who still stood against the wall, her eyes heavy. "You're lucky I'm done shooting for the day," She commented as she caught sight of her hair and face in the mirror. "You have a death grip, you know,"

"I can't help it," Stefania said as she walked over to Danielle and ran her hands through her hair to smooth it out. "You just feel too good," There was a moment of silence before either spoke again. "So, are you okay? Are we okay?" Danielle looked at her girlfriend and sighed.

"I mean, I guess. I don't... There's not much I can do. She said it was all her, you said you didn't kiss back and tried to push her off. I'm not going to end things over this but I also don't think I'm just going to forget," Stefania nodded her head as she listened. She felt awful and she wished she didn't have that annoying little soft spot for Caterina that was lingering in the back of her mind.

"Okay, that's understandable,"

"Just don't be surprised if I don't ask you to come on set more often,"
