CHAPTER 8

Samantha is looking forward to seeing Alexis once again. Since the guy left she has been feeling a bit ill. Her friends told her to visit a clinic but she declined saying that she only needed to take some rest for a few days. Sometimes she feels okay, sometimes not, that's been happening for the past weeks.

"Adelina, you've been spacing out" a female said when the blonde was not responding to her.

"I'm sorry Agatha, I was lost in thoughts" she said to the woman she was talking to.

"Anyways sissy, I heard you finally have a boyfriend" her sister screamed excited to hear it from her sister.

"Who told you about it?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Dina," her sister answered.

Samantha turns around to where Dina is sitting with Rose. The four of them face timing her sister who called to tell her about someone she met. She glared at her friend who is now covering herself with a folder. Four of them are in the office outlet researching.

"Yes, Agatha. You'll meet him when I am ready, for now let me have him for myself" Samantha said, eyes shining.

Her sister on the screen noticed the smile plastered to her sister's face. She can tell she is in love with the guy.

"So tell me about that attractive crush you have" Samantha looks at her sister smiling, eager to hear who caught her sister's eyes.

Her sister told her everything, the four listening, sometimes teasing the younger girl who keeps on blushing. The twins asked Agatha to send a photo of her crush but the younger girl said she didn't get a chance to take one. But she told them the two of them are keeping in touch, texting and sometimes calling.

The younger girl bid her goodbyes, because she needed to sleep. The sister and her friends have been talking for hours, and it is late for Agatha. The four made themselves busy, Dina again buying them coffee and food.

"When is Alex coming?" Rose asked Samantha who is writing notes in her notebook.

"In two days" she said smiling happily, Rose staring at her friend who was humming while writing some more notes she needed.

The days have gone by fast, they know Alexis is coming but she didn't want to tell what time is the arrival. Alexis thought that she wanted to surprise her girlfriend. She disguised herself as a food delivery guy.

She knows Samantha is staying at her own apartment, so it will only be her to greet her by the door. It was so early in the morning when she arrived, she came alone this time. She left Billy in L.A. she let her assistant have a break and spend a vacation with his family while she is away.

Alexis luggages still in the car she rented. She parked it a little bit further, she was wearing a black cap, a maroon hoodie and a black pants. She is holding two cups of coffee she knows Samantha likes, and some pastries. Alexis presses the doorbell a lot of times to make sure to wake up the sleeping goddess. She looks at her watch and it's only past seven (7) in the morning.

Samantha, whose sleep is ruined by the loud ringing of the doorbell, groaned and walked to the door to see who it was. Probably her friends who decided to wake up early and ask her to jog with them.

"What?" she said, obviously grumpy.

"Here's your order ma'am" Alexis said but changed her voice not to get noticed yet.

"I didn't order anything," Samantha said, still rubbing her eyes. Alexis, who still wanted to act as a food delivery guy tried not to break the facade, that beautiful looking goddess in front of her makes her want to embrace her already.

"It is the address the app is telling me to deliver it to," Alexis said, trying to convince her that she ordered the food.

"Maybe you got pranked," Samantha said, still grumpy "You ruined my sleep, how can I order something when I was still sleeping" she added with a raised brow, still in a bad mood.

"Oh come on it is for you" Alexis said now with her original voice.

She took her cap off revealing her face to the woman she wanted to see for the past weeks. Alexis grinned, while Samantha gasped still in shock to see the guy she had been dreading to see again.

"Alex" she said excitedly and hugged Alexis so tight.

Alexis trying to balance the cups of coffee in her hand. She inhaled the scent she misses so much, "mi bella" Alexis said staring at the girl face to face. She leaned so close to her face and kissed the woman.

They shared a passionate kiss, not wanting to let go of each other. They parted, panting, breaking the kiss and smiling at each other. The two got inside the apartment, settled the coffee and pasties on the table.

"I appreciate the surprise but it's too early" the blonde complained.

"Forgive me my swan," Alexis said, kissing her shoulder. "Let's eat then cuddle, I've miss you so much, mi bella"

Both of them enjoyed their coffee and pastries. They decided to watch some movies while cuddling in the living room. Suddenly there's a doorbell ringing. The two gazed at each other mindlinkiing asking who could that be, then both shrugged.

Samantha stood up and walked to the door to see who. "Girl, we've been calling and texting you and you're not answering, what happened?" a complaining Donna said while entering the apartment with Dina and Rose.

"It's almost 3 pm, we were worried. What have you been up to?" Rose said with an obvious worried face.

Samantha looks at the clock on the wall. She didn't know it is late in the afternoon, she was only enjoying the time with Alexis

"Hi girls" Alexis greeted them when she walked to where they were. The four are still near the front door near the stairs.

"Alex?" the three said in chorus.

Alexis nodded and smiled to the three, the three looked at their friend, wiggling their brows, a gesture that now they understand why their friend isn't replying or answering the phone. She is with her boyfriend.

"We'll leave you two now" the three hugged and screamed happily for their friend.

Now that her boyfriend is back, she will no longer be grumpy and short tempered with them. She has been a little off since the guy left, leaving them a woman with a mood swing. They understood she just missed the guy, and is stressed at work.

They hurriedly left them alone.

Alexis and Samantha decided to go out and have dinner. Samantha was craving to eat pizza with pineapple which Alexis grimaced, she can't imagine the taste of pizza with pineapples, besides they are in Italy and Italians don't put pineapple in their pizza.

"Where do you think we can find a pizza place that sells pineapple on pizza?" Alexis raised her brow asking the green eyed beauty.

"Well let's buy canned pineapple slices and then get the pizza" Samantha replied happily, thinking of another option.

"Love, you cannot eat at a pizza place here making everyone see you put pineapple on their pizzas" Samantha pouted, making Alexis sigh.

They decided to get the pineapple in cans, and take away the pizza and eat somewhere else. Samantha wouldn't let go of having her pizza with pineapples. Alexis asked her if she usually eats that because when they ate at a pizza place before, she ordered a four cheese pizza.

"No, I suddenly just want to eat it" Samantha said then devoured another slice of her pizza, Alexis who was staring at her frowning. She is in her fourth slice of pizza, she is humming while chewing it. Alexis though finds it cute.

Alexis told her that she can't stay here that long, she only takes leave for a week, which made the girl sad. Alexis saw her eyes forming a tear so she wiped it before it fell.

She comforted the girl , kissing the top of her hair, her shoulder and her nose. The two then kissed passionately. They are now back at Samantha's apartment. Alexis on top of the woman she falls in love with. Leaning closer to her face, telling her how beautiful she is, how much she misses her while she was away from her. Telling her how much she wanted to fly back here just to see her. It made the blonde smile, and felt the butterflies again.

"You're still a snail" Samantha said, pulling Alexis closer to kiss. She turned them over, making her on top, smirking at the blue eyes she adored.

Samantha undressing, taking her sleepwear off, smacking Alexis hand when she reached to touch Samantha. She took the lace tie of her sleepwear, and tied the hands of Alexis, making her eyes widen.

"I'm the boss tonight, darling" made Alexis shiver when she called her that way, she said it in a sexy way that made her body hot and her buddy stand out, making the girl on top of her giggle.

She aligned herself on top of Alexis who is now half naked, her top long sleeves button is now undone flexing her toned body to the girl on top. They both moan in delight when the pace starts to be faster.

Alexis looked at the green eyed goddess, riding her in her glory. She wanted to reach and touch her perked mounds but couldn't, she tried it earlier but Samantha kept on smacking her naughty hands. This woman makes her crazy. The two made love with each other until they could no longer do.

The next morning the two woke up from screaming. It is Dina, who's cheeks are now crimson red. Samantha hurriedly covers Alexis' buddy, she hopes her friend didn't see it.

Samantha wore her robe following her friend, Alexis noticed the stomping of her girlfriend, "someone woke up on the wrong side of bed" she said with a chuckle.

Dina who is now downstairs, with her twin sister and Rose, questioning her why she is tomato red.

"What happened to you?" Donna asked her twin sister, checking if she has a fever.

"Dina" Samantha called out, making Dina hide behind her twin sister. The anger in Samantha's voice is obvious.

Rose, who is curious what transpired between them, kept looking back and forth to her friends.

"Did you see something you shouldn't?" Samantha asked, arms crossed, and raised an eyebrow.

"Huh?" Both Rose and Donna sounded confused.

"Did you see it?!" Samantha asked anger laced with her words.

Dina nodded, still hiding behind Donna. They heard Samantha groan and sigh.

"Next time please knock, I'm no longer alone, Alex is here"

The two said 'Oh' now realizing what could have happened upstairs. It is just weird for them to see Samantha angry because their friend didn't knock.

Samantha left and went upstairs to take a shower, she saw Alexis go back to sleep, she kissed Alexis forehead whispering she needs to go to work and will come back as soon as she can. While the three downstairs settled on the couch questioning Dina.

"Did you really see it?" Rose asked her tomato faced friend, she is still blushing so hard.

"Was it big sister?" an excited Donna asked her twin. Dina nodded at them to confirm making her twin sister, Donna squeal, "How big is it sissy?" she can see the excitement in her sister's eyes.

She told them how big it is, making her and her sister envy their friend. Samantha went downstairs and met her friends, telling them to go now, she is still glaring at Dina, who cowers behind Rose who laughs at her friends.

They drive to their work and just order food for breakfast, Samantha who is still grumpy and moody ignores Dina who approaches her to apologize, she understands it's an accident, but she doesn't understand why she is irritated about it.

"We're fine, Dina. I'm just moody, let's go back to work now. I need to go back home soon." The three nodded agreeing, they also want to finish work early.

Alexis woke up in the afternoon, she slept so well. The girl exhausted herself last night. She saw Samantha left a little note saying she will be back as soon as she can. She went downstairs to look for some food from the fridge. There are few things inside noting that she needs to buy groceries for her girl. She reheated the leftover pizza from last night and made some coffee.

She looks at her watch, "I need to get her some groceries"

Walking to their room, she showered, after that look for something to wear. She ended up picking a gray shirt and a black jogger. Before leaving she made sure to bring her wallet and phone. Looking up the location on her car, she taps the nearest grocery shop.

She decided to get Samantha, a box of eggs, milk, bread, some meat and other things she thinks she needed. She also bought some bags of chips, and drinks in case they will binge some movies again.

"That will be all, thank you" she said and handed the payment to the cashier.

While walking back to where her car is parked, she noticed that someone was following her, when she looked back there's noone. She felt some eyes staring at her but decided to shrug it off. Who can that be? She is not from here, maybe someone is just admiring her, she thought to herself.

By the time she arrived at Samantha's place, she noticed the door was ajar open. She hurriedly went in, excited to see her girlfriend back from work again.

"Love" she said when she entered the living room but there's nobody, "weird" she looked around to see if her girlfriend was back, she went upstairs but still nothing, until she heard the door close from the front.

She ran to see who it was but she didn't see anyone weird lurking, there were people walking back and forth on the street who didn't look suspicious.

"Alex?" She turned around to see who it was, "Shane?" the brunette smiled at her.

"Didn't expect to see you here" Alexis said not expecting to bump into her.

"Me too" Shane said shyly, "well I need to go and see my sister first then stay at my aunt's place" Alexis nodded saying goodbye to the girl.

She sighed and walked back inside the house. She decided to cook something for her and Samantha, she is sure the girl is tired and hungry after working the whole day. She is making carbonara pasta, fish and chips and baked a few chocolate cupcakes, remembering how Samantha loves sweets.

"Smells so good" she heard someone say behind her, she turned around to look at the beautiful woman, she leaned down to kiss her.

Samantha hugging Alexis, smelling the scent she misses all day. She doesn't understand why she wants to sniff it that bad, it puts her in a bad mood the entire afternoon when she can't go back home and smell the guy. Alexis notices how clingy Samantha is now, with her eyes closed and nose dipped to her sweaty neck.

"I smell funny, love" she started chuckling but the other girl complained not agreeing, because to her she smells amazing.

"Why don't you go and change first then let's have some dinner?" Alexis asked her bella, who is still sticking to her body not wanting to let go. Samantha sighed and pouted, stomping her feet while trying to go upstairs and change. Alexis giggled at her cute and adorable girlfriend.

She dried herself by tapping a towel to her neck to reduce the sweating. She waited for her girl and prepared the table. Samantha came downstairs and sat down in her little dining area.

Seeing what Alexis made for her, made her mouth water. Alexis served her girlfriend the carbonara, and fish and chips on the side. She also made them freshly made orange juice. Samantha couldn't help moaning, enjoying the food Alexis made for her.

Alexis, looking at her girlfriend, snapped some pictures. The stolen beautiful pictures of her girl she adores.

"I decided to take a leave while you are here" Samantha suddenly said, making Alexis stop eating and look at her smiling girl.

"You don't have to" Alexis said, making the other girl's brows furrowed.

"I have to. You will leave in a few days, I want to cherish the moment with you" Samantha said, then stood up walking to Alexis who was sitting, hugging her from behind. "Let's go to France tomorrow" Alexis faced the girl with wide eyes and an obvious shock on her face.

"What? I needed a break too, and needed a beautiful place to go with you" Samantha said with a glimmer in her eyes. Alexis agreed.

She also is excited to spend time roaming all over Europe with her girlfriend. They will probably take lots of photos together. She needs to update her social media, and let the world know she is happy with her girlfriend.

They both pack a few things that are essentials, they both agreed to just shop if they need something and if their clothes weren't enough, just like when they went to Viareggio.

Samantha and Alexis left and went to the airport by 10 am. Her girlfriend planned the whole trip for the two of them, Alexis not minding the cost as long as she is with her bella. The two of them arrived almost two in the afternoon, after getting themselves a hotel to stay for the time being.

The two got themselves room service for their late lunch. They cuddled for a little bit and then they will go to a lavender field.

"I've been wanting to visit and see a lavender field but I have no time, plus my friends prefer beaches and partying." Samantha stated while changing.

She is wearing a white creamy spaghetti strap dress that has a small floral pattern on it. It suits her so well, it hugs her body emphasizing her figure.

It was a pleasant day to visit the field. The wind blows perfectly making the two of them feel at peace. They walk to the field hand in hand admiring the lavender plants. Samantha picked some, making herself a bouquet. Alexis took her phone out and took a lovely photo of her picking the lavender plants.

Some who visited the area were staring at her girl who looks like a goddess, Alexis called her, "Love" making the girl look at her with a wide smile. The other guys looking at her girlfriend groan. She smirks at them and gives them a wink.

Walking closer to the girl, she invited her to go back and have some snacks because she is starving from all those walking they did in the field, making the green eyed beauty giggle.

Walking back to where their rented car is parked, people stare at them, suddenly Samantha pulls her closer and kisses her in front of everyone. Alexis stared at her confusedly, she saw her girlfriend looking at the group of girls who were looking at them, one trying to look sexy and flirty. She raises her brows at them, yelling that she is taken while pointing at Samantha who is smiling wickedly at those girls. Alexis shakes her head not believing her girlfriend is a jealous type.

"Can't believe you're a jealous type?" She mocks her girlfriend while she ties her sandals. They are now preparing to leave and have their dinner at the Madame Brasserie. They booked an 8 pm dinner reservation.

"I'm not jealous. I only want them to know you are mine" Samantha said proudly, now looking at herself in the mirror, checking herself. She always wants to look beautiful in front of her man, she loves the way he stares at her like there is nobody around them.

Alexis kisses her collar that is exposed, it makes her moan. She shivers at every touch her man does to her, making her want him more, probably they can make love tonight. The two of them dine at Madame Brasserie, talking about what they did today, Samantha complaining her feet are feeling a little sore from walking a lot.

"Should we go back to the hotel after this?" Alexis asked her, feeling concerned for her girlfriend.

"No. Maybe after we enjoy the Eiffel Tower and feel contented, we will go back" Samantha stated then ate her creamy vanilla ice cream, topped with gold flakes.

After their dinner, they roam the area, looking at the Eiffel Tower, enjoying the view while holding each other's hand. Alexis suddenly felt eyes staring at her, she looked around but didn't find anyone suspicious.

Ever since she came back here, she felt eyes staring at her strangely. Maybe she is just feeling paranoid and it's only the people who are admiring her.

"Let's go, my feet are sore" Samantha said, Alexis suddenly lifted her, making the green eyed beauty yelp.

She is complaining to put her down but Alexis disagrees. She carries her to their car and drives back to their hotel. They had a tiring yet a wholesome day together. After they changed clothes, Samantha lay down in bed exhausted, still with sore feet. She closed her eyes then felt the bed dipped. Her legs were lifted and she moaned.

Alexis is massaging her sore feet and it felt so great. She understands that her girlfriend wearing heels to their dinner tonight, added to the soreness of her feet from them walking a lot at the lavender field. The moaning stopped making Alexis look at her girl who fell asleep. She chuckles leaning to the sleeping girl giving her a forehead kiss and whispering to her a goodnight.

She laid beside her bella, spooning her to sleep. It's another day of roaming Europe again tomorrow. They plan to leave and fly to Germany the next day, Samantha wants to roam there like a tourist even though she already went there before with her aunt, but to her it is different because this time it is with the man she adores so much.

They just landed in Germany and will be heading to Rothenburg, it is a preserved place of medieval period and renaissance. It is a beautiful place to visit if you want to see the old medieval town walls. Alexis and Samantha roam the area taking different photos together, or taking solo pictures.

They both spend the day only staying at one place then fly to the next country or city Samantha had planned. There are only two days to go until Alexis will go back.

"Have you told her yet?" her cousin asks her while face timing. Samantha is currently taking a shower because she feels sweaty and warm.

"Not yet, Jules," Julia sighed at her cousin.

"You need to let the girl know the truth Maxxy" Julia said looking so serious, she doesn't want her cousin lying to the woman, she deserves to know the truth.

"What truth?" Alexis looked at where the voice came.
