Impossible Love 38
The music stopped playing and everyone went back to their seats. I saw a Gypsy band set up and they started to play then all the Gypsy that was there crowded the dance floor and started with their traditional dances. It was wonderful to see as Gianni and myself were dragged into it by two ladies who proceeded to teach us a Gypsy hopping dance.
I had no idea what I was doing so I jumped and posed and spread my legs and generally made a fool of myself, Gianni and Adamo of course were dancing perfectly okay, but I presumed Gianni had lessons before this event. I had fun and that's what this was all about, having fun.
When it finished another one came on and I made my way slowly back to the table. Sabine was howling with laughter and Ramone was doing the same with Alessio. The boys told me I was so funny they took a small video to send everyone at home. I just wanted a drink and I did just that as I watched my man, because he has come up very close to the table so I would notice him.
He did a very sexy dance for me even his t-shirt came off and my thoughts went back to the nudo beach. I hope he has something on under those shorts. He didn't get that far he whispered to me that what he had on was for my eyes only, he didn't want the men of the village to get upset with him.
Roberto hadn't come back and I was worried about him, Adamo was dancing up a storm with his family so I slipped away to go find him. Rosa saw me heading for Roberto's office and headed me off. She was gently talking to me in Italian but I had no idea what she was saying until the lady with her interpreted.
"His heart is broken Antonio, he will survive but he wants to be left alone."
"Please apologize to her from me. I don't know Italian but I want to ask her a question."
"Yes?"
"Would she let Roberto and Adamo set up house together?"
She related my message and Rosa lifted herself on her toes and kissed me, thanking me. Of course he should follow his heart.
"Now may I go in?"
I found Roberto looking out his window the tissues told me he had been crying in here on his own.
"You love him don't you?" He jumped and turned his chair around.
"Yes deeply, I am sorry but I told him to go and find his true love."
"He's already found him, that man is you."
"I know, he said so but he has no experience with love."
"He's had enough to know what it is and what it feels like, he knows enough to know that it hurts also. Like you know now, and anyway don't tell me you have a lot of experience Roberto, my guess is very little."
"He is hurting badly and you are right very little experience, but for him, I learn fast. I am desperately looking for a partner forever but it never happened for me until now?"
"He hurts more than badly today." I replied, his head dropped.
"Tell me what to do Mr Antonio."
"Go out there and kiss him, then tell him you will follow him to the ends of the earth for his love."
"But I am needed here I can't go off with the Gypsy."
"I am going to tell you some secrets Roberto, don't repeat them just yet."
"I won't, I never repeat secrets."
"Adamo has his father's blessing to make a home with you, he also has a job at the winery, a dream come true for him, your mama wants you to be happy, she has also given her blessings."
"Antonio, I didn't know all this he didn't tell me."
"He wants you to come to him because you want to, he doesn't want to force you."
Tears again.
"Something else."
"Yes?"
"Sabine is going to ask your mama to head the women's collective sometime soon. They will be responsible for the running of the Manor house and all its events while she is away. Rosa will be in charge of them, she will have to learn some English. Sabine is moving to Australia to find a better life but the Manor house must keep trading. I think she is going to offer the women a forty, forty, deal with twenty going into the upkeep of the house itself. When your mama shifts jobs she will be paid very well for her services. Gianni and I are going to offer her the gatehouse and we want you and Adamo to move in there with her if that suits you both"
"I feel like I have pushed my way into your family by pretenses."
"Well luckily for you we don't feel the same, now go and tell you're impossible love that love is more than possible." He wiped his eyes and stood up, I slapped his back and said.
"Welcome to the family brother."
We both walked outside, he hugged his mama, and then we went to find Adamo.
We found him all right he was as drunk as a skunk and some man was holding him down some alleyway, he was trying to kiss him and maybe getting into his shorts. Roberto ran up to them both and pushed the man off.
"It looks like you need a real man in your life Adamo, I had better make a home with you as soon as possible. And I will make sure you don't go down any dark lanes with strangers."
I started laughing as Adamo swayed.
"How could you hurt me like that, how fucking dare you hurt me, do you even know how I feel?"
"Yes because I feel the same ti amore."
Roberto took him in his arms and kissed him, Adamo was putty in his hands.
Now that is it that's all I have to do for the moment. I want to go and see the lower fields and I want to do some more dancing with the gypsy. Then I am going to lock my doors and stay in bed with Gianni for the rest of the holidays.
I started to do my crazy dance across the courtyard to where Gianni was dancing.
"Where have you been?"
"Gianni! I found a hole."
"What?"
I laughed my way back to the table, I winked at Carlos and he poured me a drink.
Gianni wasn't mad, he knows there are no holes in town, I told him about Roberto and he was very happy for them he didn't have to worry about Adamo going out and meeting people like Cal's friends or something, yes he was pleased.
"They can have our gatehouse baby." He smiled.
"Yes they can too, but they must pay rent to you."
"I don't care what they do as long as they are happy, we can give them free rent can't we Antonio. But if you insist he pays he's lucky he has a job now?"
"Of course we can dufas." I kissed him deeply, clapping was heard.
He grinned.
"The best job is that you're my husband Antonio." Yes it is the best job I mused.
"Antonio?" He whined.
"Oh, yes and I love that job also with you Gianni." He kissed me again.
The party was coming to its end, so we made our way back to the car to go on home. I had Lukas in my arms and he was dead tired from all that dancing. The boys wanted a swim and I wanted to sleep so I placed Lukas into his bed, then I showered and closed my eyes not long after.
Six in the bed in the morning I couldn't move, Adamo had his dick between my legs and Gianni was trying to shove it out with his. The boys were asleep on top of each other and Roberto was getting an eye full of Carlos's behind, I did notice he nearly licked it.
"I'm out of here you dirty faggots," I went to change my baby and see that he had everything he needed. Rosa was in the kitchen cooking up a storm she thanked me many times and handed me a coffee. My son was taken and he didn't mind at all as she talked to him in Italian and fed him some egg.
Adamo walked out in his underwear and he sat heavily.
"Do you have a headache?"
"No Antonio, just tired I don't drink too much I see what happens so I don't, but yesterday I had too much."
"So everything is right with Roberto now?"
"He is showering Antonio, and thank the gods everything is all right. I thought I was going to die yesterday, I was so much grief."
"Well he does love you and I think you will have a long life with him."
"I hope so Antonio, this dating thing isn't for me I like normal. I like just one man in my life I think I like that the best."
"I agree with you one man is enough when you are in love."
"Yes."
"I need to see your caravans and the lower paddock Adamo will you take me there sometime."
"Of course Antonio, anytime you want it's not far from here."
"I have never seen it, it must be well hidden."
"It is in a valley over that way." He pointed.
"I see." That explains everything, it's in a valley field.
"They won't mind if I turn up?"
"No they will love you to be there, my people love you and Gianni make no mistake."
"Do I take anything?"
"Maybe a bottle of vino for the uncles and if you want them to love you more, take a case." He giggled.
"I will speak to Gianni then."
He came down with Roberto and two noisy boys, my son was immediately whisked away and coffee was bought out. Rosa was talking to Roberto she apologized several times but I guess she has a lot to tell him.
"My mama has been summoned to the big house for lunch today, Sabine has requested her and her friend to go." He winked at me, I winked back and smiled.
If Sabine had forgotten about asking Rosa, I was going to ask her to come back to Melbourne with us she can get work there with Nina. Speaking of Nina I must ring her today.
"Do you want to go to the Gypsy camp today Gianni?"
"No, Antonio, I have work."
"Okay tomorrow then."
"Maybe." He was too busy kissing his son to sit and have a proper conversation.
The food arrived and everyone tucked in, Lukas was taken into the kitchen and Roberto and Adamo were staring at each other blushing. I know what's on their minds so we will leave them alone today to get further acquainted.
"What work have you got on baby?"
"Just some work at the winery, then I want to do something."
"Okay then when you want to visit you can let me know." He looked at me and said.
"I am sorry Antonio, millions of words are going in my head. I have to taste the first bottle Tinker has prepared, then I want to picnic by the lake.
"Can we come we can swim and sunbake that would be so awesome?" Leon got excited.
"No." Gianni gruffly replied.
"Why not?"
"Because you're not invited." I winked at Carlos he knows what's up.
"Baby, we can hang here with Roberto and Adamo," Leon said.
"No you can't," Roberto said.
"Why not?"
"Because we have something special to do today and we don't want any distractions."
"We could help." Carlos offered.
I started laughing because I don't think they can help Roberto with his rising problem.
He is a gorgeous man, and so humble I wish I could make him see he's not a fool, his silence is worth its weight in gold. I was thinking about the community gossips back in Melbourne, and how everything private suddenly becomes public knowledge. Roberto would be a goldmine because he wouldn't get involved in all that stuff.
Gianni wiped his mouth and kissed me.
"I'm off to work pick me up in an hour."
"I can come with you, wait for me."
"Nope have got to go."
He ran off towards the winery buildings and I was left to my own devices.
"They have rushed through his favorite recipe and he has to taste it with no distractions," Leon said. See what I mean, the local telegraph line, how the hell did he know.
I told Rosa to take Lukas up to the big house in the car to see his Nona and I would do the dishes and clean up. She said in English.
"Not happening."
"Okay, then I will come with you."
"Can we come Antonio?"
"Yes of course you can come." I winked at Adamo he laughed his head off.
I piled into the car with the boys and Leon drove up to the big house. My presents were nowhere to be seen, the housekeeper said they were all in a container at the winery ready to be shipped to Melbourne. I must go over that list again and do some thank you cards.
"Will the winery print us some thank you cards?"
"Done." She smiled and walked away, she didn't elaborate.
"Good morning dear mother in law how are you this morning?"
"Very well considering yesterday's fiasco." I kissed her as I handed an excited little bubs over.
"No Ramone or Alessio this morning?"
"They have gone surfing."
"What?"
"Ramone has taken him surfing, it's not far from here."
"I see." I was pleased, very bloody pleased indeed.
"He will find someone to take Alessio out into the waves that should put a smile on his face. And by the way, Antonio what have you done to my son's father? He was laughing this morning."
"I told him to live a little and fuck the tabloids."
"Good, because Cartasso winery is a national treasure in Italy and people here are more accepting Antonio, he never believed that."
"I am trying to change his mind."
"Thank you, I am having lunch with Rosa and her friend today do you want to sit in?"
"I think Gianni wants me to picnic with him today, he's at the winery tasting a new wine."
"Yes, the picnic I forgot. I want some of his wine for the Cartasso brand Antonio it's some of the best one I have ever tasted."
"What?"
"Tinker works for me Antonio, he is loyal to me so I had a tasting last night." She laughed. Why would I ever think anything different?
"My cook is preparing a picnic lunch for you both, I think Gianni wants to talk to his Mama today about his new son and I know he will want to show your rings off to her."
"And you, what have you in mind for Rosa?"
"I will get her English lessons, Gianni should have done that ages ago and she will head up the events side of things. Her friend speaks English she can interpret and teach her at the same time."
"Good because she's a lovely lady."
"She is like her husband and son she speaks to no one, and in this business her silence is golden."
"I am liking her family more and more everyday Sabine, we will have to make sure Roberto stays in business we will need him"
"Oh yes Antonio, for sure we will need him because he is going to be the liaison between his Mama and Nina. I want her to push the Manor house all over Australia and I want Roberto involved."
"It's a big job looking after the boy's Mama." I smiled.
"Not so big, all you have to do is slap them around a bit and shout." I laughed so much the boys came out from the living room to see what was happening.
"So what are you going to do in your spare time?"
"Run the market." That floored me I didn't think of that I thought she would do some socializing with the big wigs but not the market.
"Won't you get bored?"
"No Antonio, as you know I have things to deal with, and the market is perfect for business. I am going to set up a card game outside Angelo's restaurant and sit and stare at Stavros all day." She laughed so much the boys thought she was ill. I thought it was a brilliant idea.
My phone rang and I answered to speak to my man.
"Antonio, where are you?"
"At the big house lover, are you ready?"
"I am ready."
"I will see you in ten minutes."
I hung up and had to go, grabbing my baby and a picnic basket I fired up a golf cart and headed to the winery. He looked a little flushed and kissed me and Lukas then sat him on his knee as I drove to our favorite spot on the lake. There were a few boats out today, I guess the village courting days are back.
I placed a big blanket on the grass and Gianni started telling his Mama he was married and he placed the photo of his new son on the grass so she could see him.
"This is my new husband Antonio, we have spoken many times of him mama, this is my new son mama, and this is your grown-up Lukas our other son. It has been a journey I can tell you mama, but I am finally very happy with my life now, you would be proud." The lake shimmered in the sunlight and I know she was listening. He kissed me deeply, then Lukas on both cheeks and the photo twice.
"Now my job is done Antonio and I mean it I am happier than I have ever been today."
"So am I Gianni I feel at peace again, and I hope and pray it lasts forever."
"It will Antonio, it will." He kissed me again and laid me back to have a good grope.
I was staring into his beautiful eyes and he winked.
"Did you bring some lube?"
"Yes, buckets full."
"Good because I am about to use some."
He lay back in the sun with a grin on his face, I wiped up and cuddled into him.
"I have made the finest wine in Europe Antonio, Iris should be pleased with me, and I also have another cheap plonk."
"Excellent, how did Adamo go?"
"Not too good baby, I am sorry for him and will have to start teaching him about wines."
"That's sad he was excited about them."
"He will do okay Antonio, we will work on his recipes, do you think he will want his very own label?"
"Probably not baby, I think he was just showing you how proud of you he is, he's trying to emulate you.
"He doesn't have to Antonio, I like him the way he is and I don't want him to be spoiled."
"Good neither do I."
"Did you like your fuck?"
"Very much Gianni, it was awesome."
"Good because then I do you tonight."
"If we get a moment to ourselves."
"We are on our honeymoon Antonio, we must have quiet time to ourselves."
"Are you finished yet?" I heard screaming coming from the bushes. It was a scramble to put our shorts on as the boys ran out from behind the trees, they whooped it up then jumped into the water, closely followed by an annoyed but laughing Gianni Cartasso.
I laughed and watched Lukas follow them, then I jumped up because he was getting too close to the edge. I grabbed him and relieved him of his nappy and walked him into the cool water. It is different in the lake the waters chillier so I had to slowly get him used to it.
His big eyes stared at me as he gasped.
"Well it's cold in here."
Then he smiled and wanted to get down but it was too deep for him but not for me.
I bounced him up and down and he enjoyed his little swim, he shivered and I got out and grabbed a towel to warm him up again. He laughed as he tried several times to go back, the boys were having so much fun dunking Gianni and their happy sounds warmed my heart.
We all laid in the sun, I had Lukas on my chest so I would feel him if he moved and Gianni was holding my man toy, he had a big smile on his face.
"What's up?"
"Nothing Antonio, just happy that's all."
"Good so am I. Do you want to go into Rome and have some time alone?"
"That would be nice Antonio, we can Leave Lukas with mama."
"Okay I will organize it baby what is the accepted outfit for a sauna?" His head lifted and he laughed.
"Nudo."
"Okay."
The boys had fallen asleep I guess Sabine's meeting has started and they were bored.
Gianni wouldn't stop staring at me, he is going to give me a complex I think.
"It will be nice to have a honeymoon to ourselves Antonio."
"Well we didn't plan to spend it with the others. I will book that hotel we stayed in the last time it was very nice."
"Okay we will do that in two days."
I was happy to spend maybe five days with my new husband and that hotel was awesome, I never got to spend time in any hotels back at home. I looked over at two adorable men and one of them had his eye open. Carlos if you upset my honeymoon there will be hell to play, I said to myself but I should have said it out loud.
We packed up when the sun went over it was getting a little hot for Lukas and he was getting antsy as all kids do, he's bored.
Gianni said farewell to his mama and we followed the boys back to the big house. Sabine's meeting had concluded and Rosa was smiling from ear to ear when I winked at her. She had a stack of paperwork in her hands and her friend was talking her through some of it. She will have plenty of staff at her beck and call and if she does well, who knows the world is her oyster.
Roberto and Adamo were in the pool so the boys dropped their shorts and took Lukas into the warm water, he loves it the best I think.
"More, More." He sang out as they dunked him up and down.
The ladies left to do their job they wanted to look over the Manor house again just to find their footing, Sabine told me she had spoken to the housekeeper there and she was expecting them.
I told Gianni that our presents will all be shipped to Australia and Sabine said the thank you cards with a little note have been posted out. I didn't have to do a thing and was very pleased, so was my writing hand. I was dragged into the pool by Adamo, I think he wants to fondle me because he giggled when Gianni did, so he grabbed Adamo's hand and let him have a grope too. Roberto was put out so I let him have a feel also then I felt all three of them. My bathers were so tight they couldn't get a good hold anyway.
I grinned at Gianni but he dived his hand down the back its easier to get to and the boys moaned they didn't get a go. I asked Sabine to get someone to book the hotel for us and she rang a non-specific person, probably her housekeeper to do it for us, and I was looking forward to it.
Being dragged around the pool by five burly men isn't my idea of fun so I gave up and went to sit in the afternoon sun.
"Have you heard from Ramone?"
"Yes, they are staying the night Alessio is having so much fun there, he has found some friends who have promised they will tandem with him tomorrow."
"Wonderful so I had better cancel the ad then."
"What ad?"
"I placed an ad in the papers to see if anyone would take him surfing but there's been no response, I think I had better hire Ramone in the future."
"He's a wonderful man my Ramone, he would do anything for Alessio. But over the years he has built up this image of a businessman and it will be hard for him to shake it."
"It will be hard and the first thing is he has to tell his parents to go to hell and stop playing in his head even though they are now gone."
"I agree Antonio, I will be doing much the same." She smiled and took my hand and kissed it.
"Would you like to taste Gianni's new bestseller?"
"Yes please, he didn't offer me any at the lake he didn't bring wine at all." I giggled as she buzzed her kitchen hand who bought it out all chilled and opened ready to go down my throat.
It was beautifully smooth and I detected a hint, just a hint of something I couldn't identify. I will have to try and weasel the ingredient out of Gianni when I have time.
"Very nice, this is wonderful Sabine."
"It has vanilla in it."
"Is that what I can taste it's barely noticeable but I knew there was something, how did you know?"
"Tinker works for me, did you forget that Antonio?"
"No." I giggled into my first glass of a first-class wine.
"Is he happy to manage the winery?"
"Yes baby, he's been doing it for a few years now he only has to make sure the vines are healthy and he can get the stock from the other fields."
"I want to go and visit the Gypsy camp at some stage do you want to come?"
"No thank you they can be a bit full-on and don't be surprised if they don't parade a few young men in front of you, the way they think everyone needs an extra lover Antonio." My dick stirred there was some awesome young Gypsy's at the party yesterday.
"I will stick to the one thank you, he's more than enough for me." She patted my hand I guess she agrees.
"I know you would never hurt him Antonio that's what my Luca saw in you, trust."
"I wondered what he thought but he never did give me an answer."
"Well he told me it's trust that's all he said."
"I miss him and I wish he was still here with us."
"We all do Antonio, my heart breaks whenever I think about him."
This is getting too deep so I poured myself and Sabine another wine and saluted Luca.
Gianni was standing by the pool drying Lukas, his body was looking perfect today and I let him pose for me, which he does quite often. He passed a happy baby to Sabine and looked at me. I winked and saluted him.
"This is beautiful baby, it is the best you have made and is going to be your flagship I believe."
"Where did you get that from?"
"I had a case sent over son."
"Did you like it, mama?"
"It's the perfect wine, a million dollars for the recipe, no more."
"No mama but thank you, I have a family to keep now, Antonio spends a lot so I need a steady income."
"When was the last time you bought yourself something Antonio?"
"I don't know Sabine, maybe some underwear after I had my nose done."
"A million and a half Gianni not a penny more."
"No thank you mama,"
"Two million."
"Not even two."
"Three." And rising.
"Antonio do you want to go home now, Lukas is tired?"
"Cancel the offer and he stays here with me."
We chuckled into our wines, then Gianni poured himself one.
"How many made it through the process baby?" I asked.
"Three, I am happy with them we got a good plonk one also."
"Good it will be one of your best sellers."
The boys went to get another two bottles they needed a tasting also, Roberto and Adamo got the glasses ready.
"Hey don't you two drink all my best wine there's plonk there too." She looked at Gianni and said.
"I had a box of each sent over, I am also very proud of you Gianni well done."
"Thank you mama," He smiled lovingly at her.
The boys loved it and Gianni had a word to Adamo about his recipes, he said he was just fooling around with them and Gianni said he would teach him to make them up.
He was more than happy that it gets him working with his idol and I am guessing that's all he ever wanted.
Our afternoon had been fun but we had to go because I wanted some time with Gianni.
"I will have food sent over, Rosa will be still busy."
"Thank you." We kissed everyone good night and left in our golf buggy. There was food in the oven when we got there, she must have got someone to do it, so I rang Sabine and canceled dinner. Lukas was put to bed a little early tonight and when I went back out the back here was Gianni naked by the pool. He was waiting for me to swim with him, well not really he was wanting something else by the way he was standing to attention.
We had no visitors and he took his time to make me feel loved, I think I am going to learn Italian because the words he was saying to me were beautiful in my ears.
We swam some more and played but in the end we were just plain tired, so we showered and went to bed. I held him he held me and I told him he was brilliant many times.
I had the best sleep that night no one was in bed with us in the morning, I knew Adamo and Roberto were in their room because we had heard them come home but the boys were nowhere to be seen.
I had a phone call from Nona, they were in Florence and her legs were aching from all the walking. She was telling me about all the things they had seen on the way and asked for photos of Lukas, so I sent her both photos and she screamed down the phone, it was funny because I couldn't understand any of what she was saying in Italian.
I rang Nina and everything there was going smoothly she was sad she couldn't attend our wedding but I told her we would probably have an Australian one also, for all our friends back at home. I spent the morning ringing around, Gino Angelo Stavros even got a call but the boys wanted to talk to him.
We didn't have a plan today so I suggested we go into town and have coffee and cakes. They were all for it and I wondered why Roberto didn't go off to work. I asked Adamo later on and he said he couldn't prise himself away from him so he canceled his two appointments and said he will call on them tomorrow. We drove into town and parked in the main street, it was busy and we found a big table to have our coffee. The boys ordered and I looked at the cakes they were awesome. Gianni and I had a big one we shared and Lukas got a funny face one he liked. Roberto and Adamo shared and kissed a lot. It was very pleasant and as per usual people were congratulating us on the nuptials as they passed by it reminded me of home.
It was then I got homesick for our friends but I didn't say anything because the others were having a ball here.
