*Meri* Finally I manage to get free and jump off the bed. But as I am to run for the door Daniel grabs my arm. "Oh no bitch, you are mine". "Fuck off you psycho creep". I turn and kick him as hard as I can right in the crotch, seeing him crumble on the floor. Then I turn and run for the door. I throw the door open, and run into the real basement, desperately searching for the stairs, not knowing how long he will be down. And for some reason I fear he won't hold back anything or wait for my consent if he gets to me now. Running up the stairs I pray that the wooden door at the top is unlocked. I grab the handle, and pull. Screaming out my frustration as I realize it is locked and that Daniel most probably has the key. I hear Daniel groan and I fear he can be here any minute, so against all common sense I start hammering desperately on the door. "Help, please help me ... someone please help". "No one will hear you". I hear Daniel chuckle, and turn to see him standing by the secret
*Lumi* We are having a memorial for Meri in the small hospital chapel and I have been allowed to come out for half an hour in a wheelchair, wearing a mask to keep out bacteria and viruses. Suddenly the door is flung open, and Tom walks in, followed by Luca. My parents look at them, and my father say. "So you did come, I was about to be very disappointed in you two". "We did more than that. Luca go support Lumi, Gabriel you better support your wife". Tom say stopping just inside the door. Luca comes over, squatting down next to me. He is unable to contain the most amazing smile. "Hi Baby, how are you feeling ?" "Okay Luca, what are you two up to ?" For some reason my heart is hammering like crazy. Tom clear his throat. "Sorry but after Luca gave me the ring and I realised it wasn't the ring I gave Meri … Well me and Luca has been looking into thing and there is someone you should meet ... my girlfriend, come on in darling". "His girlfriend ... Luca ?" My heart runs amok as I hea
5 months later *Lumi* I stop and look in the mirror, eyeing the woman looking back. Her eyes seem a bit too big, but the smile on her face is beyond happy. It has been just over four months since my bone marrow transplant, it was hard at first ... like really freaking hard, but with the amazing support of my family and especially Luca I have pulled through. My skin is still a bit pale and my icy blonde hair has only grown out to a short page cut, making me happy my hair grows fast. I am not cured, and never will be, but my disease has been beaten back to almost zero, and I am getting a new kind of medicine, so everything is looking pretty bright right now. Putting on my new sexy black designer dress I am happy that I have put a couple of pounds back on to fill it out, I didn't like looking like a stick figure. Especially not tonight at Luca's big premiere. I am so proud of him, but today is bittersweet, because tomorrow he leaves London for the LA premiere. I am staying behind
*Meri* I sigh when I feel Tom's strong arm slide around me and his lips grace my bare back. I am wearing a long red dress with wide draped sleeves and an open back. "You look absolutely beautiful darling". "Thank you love". I reach my hand back to gently rest on his cheek and he leans into my touch with a slight hum. "I am happy you are off from the theater tonight". "Me too, I would be sad to miss Zac's big evening and a chance to show you off". He leans down to plant small kisses on my neck. He is doing a Pinter play at the moment, which keeps him out most evenings, but at least he is in London for now. I feel so sorry for Lumi, Lucais flying out tomorrow for the LA premiere and after that he is going back to Texas. I turn to look at him, he is in a pinstripe three piece Gucci suit, a crisp white shirt and a red tie that matches my dress. "You look very sexy and just a bit dangerous in that suit, a bit like a gangster". "Oh so a sexy gangster". He grabs my waist, dipping me b
*Luca* The door is opened and I slide out to the hustle, bustle and sound of the red carpet, holding out my hand to help Lumi out. She looks absolutely radiant and I feel she looks more like a star than I will ever do, which doesn't bother me the slightest. "This is amazing Luca". She looks around, beaming with happiness. "You are amazing darling, all eyes will be on you". I tell her softly. "I know mine definitely will be". I lean in closer, whispering in her ear, even if it is not necessary. "And later my hands". She smiles lovingly at me, a smile that never fails to lift my spirits and make me all giddy. "You are the star today darling, come on let's go shine". I take her hand and we start the walk down the red carpet. "Let's find Meri and Tom, I am pretty sure I saw Tom's mane up ahead". "Don't tease him Luca". She giggles softly as she pulls me with her. A couple of seconds later Meri shows up, hugging us both. "Hi, Tom is just saying hi to his fans". "You should go do t
*Luca* "Are you sure Luca ? You can go to the after party if you want to". Lumi says smiling at me, her hand resting on my arm. I shake my head, taking her hand and lifting it to my lips. "No darling, it's our last night together, I want to be with you. I don't need a party, I need you". "Thank you". She smiles softly at me. The premiere is over and I am happy that so many people have come up slapping my back and telling me how much they liked it. There is an after party, but Lumi still tires out fast, especially among many people, and she can't take more being social today. I put my arm around her, walking over to Tom and Meri, who are standing to the side, lost in each other for a moment. "Hey you two, if you could stop with the face sucking for a moment. Lumi and I are heading home". "You want me to come, siskoni ? It's okay if you do". Meri says softly, letting go of Tom. Lumi giggles and glances up at me. "No Meri, go enjoy the party. I am gonna be ... busy anyway". Tom
*Lumi* Sex had been, heated, passionate and fast. We had both needed that after all this time. All the pent up frustration needed an outlet. After we have showered, and that had been one long foreplay, kisses and gentle caresses, washing each other. Now he is kneeling in front of me, gently drying me off. He looks up at me through dark lashes. "You are so exquisitely beautiful my love ... My ice queen with the warmest heart". I grab a small towel, rubbing his hair, rufling it into a mess of damp curls. "And you are so damn sexy it should be illegal". "I can deal with sexy". A smirk spread on his lips. "But right now I'd rather deal with you". As he gets up he lifts me with him, making me squeal. He carries me into the bedroom, laying me gently down on the bed. Then he starts kissing slowly up my leg and I close my eyes, breathing out slowly. He nipples on the inside of my thigh, making me gasp slightly and grab onto the sheets. "Hmr hmr ... ohhh". He chuckles lightly a
3 weeks later *Luca* It hasn't even been a month, but it feels like forever since I left London and Lumi. She held me so tight in the airport that I changed my mind several times, and seriously contemplated staying. I miss her like crazy, but I channel it through work-outs and I talk to her as much as possible. I have just arrived home from three days in New York and honestly I am hungry and tired. It is rather late and I decide to go by the small supermarked that is the closest to my house on the way. They have 24 hours open and they have some ready made usable food. I park outside, seeing that there is just one car parked there. Nice, it will be much faster and easier to shop if there is no one else there. It is almost morning in London and I would love to give Lumi a call before hitting the bed. Walking inside I get a weird feeling. There is no-one to be seen, no staff and no customers. I mean the store isn't that big, so it is weird I can't see anyone there. I grab a basket
