DOUBLE SURPRISE

Rehab and Therapy Center, San Francisco City

The bus stopped at the bus stop and the doors opened automatically. I quickly got out of the bus and took a deep breath. Finally I was out of the crowded bus! I reflected for a moment in which direction I had to go to get to the therapy center ... I briefly checked the navigator on my phone and then walked energically up the street. My heart was beating faster in anticipation; I was finally going to see him, my Marco! This time he kept his word and had already been going to group therapy for more than two weeks, which supported him during his drug withdrawal. I was so proud of him! We only saw each other on weekends; I was missing him the other days, but didn't tell him. Marco was doing his best to focus completely on therapy and college, so I certainly didn't want to distract him. He was so close to his goal ... to finally be clean! Today, however, I couldn't resist any longer; my longing for him was too strong ... So I decided to surprise him and pick him up from the therapy center. Actually, it was my mum who suggested it to me! Yesterday she asked me again why Marco didn't come to my place during the week. My parents liked Marco a lot and I was pretty sure that they hadn't noticed anything about his drug addiction.

I guess they wouldn't agree that their "good daughter" was together with someone drug addicted! My mum and I had a great relationship and I could really tell her (almost) everything ... So yesterday I gathered all my courage and told her the truth: that Marco was going to group therapy to overcome his drug addiction! And Mum; she didn't seem to be very surprised .... "I noticed it when Marco was eating dinner with us!" she said thoughtfully. "His hands were shaking while he was holding a glass or something. That's usually a sign of withdrawal symptoms from alcohol or drug addiction. Remember, Sofia, I've a degree in medicine, even if it's veterinary medicine!" I was speechless; Mum knew it all the time and hadn't asked me anything about it?! At least my dad didn't seem to have noticed .... "I think it's good that you're supporting your boyfriend during the therapy." said Mum seriously. "But don't forget you're only eighteen! You can't help him if he doesn't want your help." Of course Mum was right, but I would never let Marco down! And the therapy really seemed to work ...

I finally arrived at the therapy center. I got more and more excited when I saw all the people leaving the building. Where the hell was Marco?! Then he finally left the center; he was not alone, but together with a tall slender guy. This had to be Leo, who was on therapy with him and with whom he had become friends! Since I was standing in the shade of a tree, at first he couldn't see me, but kept on talking to Leo. My heart was beating like crazy, my throat was dry! "MARCO! Hey Marco, I'm over here!" I shouted loudly and waved at him. Marco and Leo were looking in my direction and I could clearly see Marco's face lighten up. "SOFIA! What a surprise!" he exclaimed and I laughed happily. He said something to the other guy; Leo laughed and waved at me, then walked away. Marco came towards me with a huge smile and pulled me gently but firmly into his arms. I sighed as I felt the warmth of his strong body and snuggled close to him. "Che bella sorpresa! Mi sei mancata da morire, piccola!" he whispered in my ear. His voice was rusky and sexy and sent a pleasant shiver down my spine. I understood the meaning of his words: "What a beautiful surprise! I've missed you like crazy, my little one!" I buried my face at his shoulder and breathed in his familiar scent.

"You have no idea how much I've missed you, amore!" I said softly. "How are you?" I lifted my face and met the tender gaze of his dark blue eyes. My heart was warming; I loved Marco so much! "I'm feeling better every day!" he replied with a smile. "Honestly, I didn't believe that the therapy would really help me ..." Marco took a deep breath and I looked at him curiously. "You won't believe it, Sofia: I haven't smoked a joint in a few days!" He laughed happily. I laughed with him and hugged him so tightly that he gasped. "Really Marco? That's great news; I'm so happy!" I put my hands around his neck and gently pulled his head towards me to kiss him. Marco sighed deeply and returned my kiss with devotion and passion. It felt like paradise to feel his soft lips on mine .... And he didn't taste a bit of tobacco this time, only of mint! After a breathless moment that seemed like a small eternity, we detached our lips from each other and took a deep breath. "Right over there is the City Park." said Marco, running a hand through his hair. He always did that when he was either embarrassed or nervous! "What do you think about chilling there for a while, amore?" He looked at me expectantly and I nodded. "Great idea, Marco! We'll have all the afternoon to chill." Marco laughed happily, then took my hand and we walked together across the street to the park.

************************************

A while later we were sitting in the grass; I was leaning with my back against a tree trunk and Marco was leaning on me, his head resting on my chest. He had his eyes closed and was breathing quietly. Was he asleep?! I gently traced the contours of his face with my fingers; Marco sighed softly. "Are you comfortable with your head on my boobs, Marcolino?" I teased him. "You're not going to fall asleep, are you?!" Marco opened his eyes and looked at me. Those blue eyes; every time he was looking at me this way, I melted away! "I'd love to fall asleep like that, amore! Your boobs are so soft, they feel like paradise and have the perfect size for a pillow ..." Marco winked at me and I blushed a little. Then he leaned his head on my chest again, losing himself in daydreams. I took a deep breath; it warmed my heart to see him so relaxed! "It feels really good to hold you in my arms. You're so big and strong, but right now you're like a little boy!" I playfully ruffled his dark blond hair. "It makes my hear melt when you look at me with those puppy eyes. Love you, Marcolino!" Marco laughed softly and tenderly caressed my legs, from my knees up to my thighs.

Though I was wearing jeans, I could clearly feel the warm touch of his fingers through the fabric; I could feel the heat spreading between my legs ... I was craving Marco; not only his kisses and touches. I wanted to finally feel all of him, his bare skin on mine, without any fabric between us; I wanted to have sex with him, experiencing my first time with him! Marco's touch became more intense and demanding; I couldn't suppress a moan as the tingle between my thighs intensified. What was wrong with me; why was I not able to control myself when I was with Marco?! He noticed what was going on with me and pulled back his hands with a deep sigh. After all, we were not alone in the park, there were many people here on this beautiful October day with pleasant temperatures! Marco was obviously aroused too, his face was flushed and his breathing was heavy. For a moment there was an awkward silence between us. Marco took a deep breath before saying something. "Sorry Sofia, I just can't resist you!" he said sheepishly. "You're so cute! When I'm with you, all my troubles seem so far away." He smiled gently and my heart warmed again!

"And it makes my heart melt when you call me MARCOLINO. It reminds me of my mum!" He sighed deeply. "She called me Marcolino when I was a little boy. Sometimes she still calls me that!" Marco had that dreamy look again, wandering off into the distance; surely he was thinking of his Mum! I caressed gently his hair. He took my hand and pulled it to his lips, then kissed my fingers with devotion. Marco was so sweet; it was just too good to be true! "I'd like to introduce you to my mom!" His rusky voice interrupted my thoughts. "What do you think if we travel to Italy together, next summer?" WHAT?! Marco wanted to take me to Italy, introduce me to his mum?! "Gosh Marco, that would be great! I always wanted to travel to Italy and then with you .... Wow!" Marco laughed happily and I laughed with him. He turned around and was now sitting in front of me. We didn't say a word for a while, were just looking at each other. Once again I was amazed by the intensity of his blue eyes ...

I could see his love for me, but also his hunger for me in it; the same hunger I had for him! My heart was beating like crazy and I took a deep breath. Today was the day of surprises and I had another special surprise for Marco ... "Marco, I have to tell you something!" I said sheepishly. "Okay piccola, just spill the tea!" he answered and looked at me curiously. I cleared my throat nervously. "The next weekend my parents are going to L.A. with Sven, to a basketball tournament." I told him as calmly as possible, though my heart was pounding. "I'm staying at home alone! To be honest, I don't like being alone in the big house ..." I quickly avoided Marco's inquiring gaze; did he suspect what I was getting at?! Then I gathered all my courage. "I, I wanted to ask you if you will sleep over that weekend?!" Marco was staring at me in disbelief; his hands were trembling as he ran them through his hair, visibly nervous. I could not help but smirk; did my invitation to our first night together have such an effect on him?! I guess I wasn't the only one who couldn't wait anymore ....

He swallowed hard. "Holy shit, Sofia! Of course I want to sleep with you ... uh sleep over!" His voice trembled with excitement. I breathed a sigh of relief; so that was settled! Marco cleared his throat loudly. "What about your parents?" he wanted to know. "Are they okay with me sleeping with you? You've asked them, haven't you?" I rolled my eyes in annoyance; why did he even care?! "My mum came up with the idea to invite you for a sleepover!" I replied with a wink. That was really true; Mum was simply the best and she managed to convince Dad too! Marco was looking at me in disbelief; he just couldn't believe to be that lucky! I had to bring him back to earth ... "I tell my mom almost everything! She also knows that it's going to be my first time with you, Marco!" I said as cool as possible, even though my heart was racing with excitement. "So she's highly recommending us to use protection! Will you take care of that, Marco?!" I tried to appear sober and debiased, but a thousand emotions and thoughts were raging inside me! Marco swallowed hard. "Don't worry about it, piccola! I'll bring condoms!" he finally replied, his voice sounding gentle but determined. Now I was getting nervous; in ten days it was time ... finally!

Marco knew me very well and noticed that I was fucking nervous! He grabbed my hands again and was holding them very tightly, looking deep into my eyes. I held my breath. "Non vedo l'ora di passare tutta la notte con te, amore mio!" he said softly, and just the sound of his deep voice sent one shiver after another down my back. "I can't wait to spend the whole night with you, my love!" was the meaning of his words; I couldn't wait either! We didn't say a word for a while, just looked deeply into each other's eyes. We could read in the other's eyes how much we were craving each other, wanted the other, were not able to think of anything else! We both were breathing heavily; the sexual tension between us became almost unbearable ... I felt the heat growing inside of me! I imagined how my first time with Marco was going to be; how he would kiss and touch me all over and I would kiss and touch him, how I would finally feel him inside of me. Holy shit! I was so hot that I had to get up quickly to gasp for air. "We'd better go now, Marco!" I said as cool as possible. "Will you take me home?" Marco nodded with a smile and stood up as well. "Of course, amore mio!" He winked at me and we both bursted in laugh. We walked back to the therapy center where Marco had parked his motorbike. Then we got on the bike and drove to Cole Valley.
