Impossible Love 81
Maxieplus
The boys didn't do their wine bar tour on the way, this time Gino and Gianni joined them in the bottle that they carried, that's it boys look the part swigging out of a bottle, charming I'm sure.
I wasn't included because I had to make sure the kids were okay. Lukas had made it to Federico's shoulders so he was getting a good ride while Alice Maxie and Tommaso did the strollers, I made sure Iris didn't trip over. Anna, on the other hand, pushed Sam and looked a million dollars her puppies were just about popping out of her emerald green full-length sparkly evening gown, the boys had helped her put a deep red dye through her hair and she looked amazing. I think Gino thinks so also, he had a stiff most of the way to the club, but only I noticed.
We arrived and waited until the boys came up the rear they were slow because they had to finish the second bottle Gianni had found in one of the baby's rides. Federico put Lukas down but he wanted more so I told him to go find nona and nono, which distracted him. He ran off and as usual when we moved through the doors we had many ladies wanting to help with the kids, so they disappeared and I parked their rides to the side. We made our way to the table and I kissed gran and patted grandad's shoulder. Lukas was already on her lap talking about business and I heard her say.
"We will talk to Remo when he arrives grandson and that's a very good idea."
He squeezed his eyes shut and smiled, I think he's just come up with a brilliant idea.
Gianni went to get a few ice buckets and some wine and sat down with me.
"No Conner and Brent tonight?" he asked.
"No, they are having dinner with friends I think."
"They could have all come here."
"I said that but it was a business dinner they were so disappointed."
"Maybe next time." He took my hand and grinned.
"What are you up to?"
"Nothing Antonio, I was just having a nice time with my husband that is all."
"Well your husband would like a dance if you can fit him in."
"I can always fit him in Antonio, you know that." So he pulled me up and on the dance floor for a slow trot around. Gino and Anna were up and she was getting a lot of looks from the ladies, maybe they think she is a tart or something, but she and Gino did look good together. Little Sam will be around somewhere I spied two babies sitting at tables and the third was with Stavros having a chat with him and his mates, I think little Antonio is learning how to play cards tonight.
Lukas dashed past us and cornered Remo at the entrance, Dave and Queenie were laughing as he knelt to talk business with him. I waved and smiled at them as they walked past us to the table. The girls were next to arrive and I motioned them to go sit with us they all looked refreshed and gorgeous in their new frocks, a glance around the room saw quite a few men staring at them, but I did notice Bella was absent from the group and I think I know why. They arrived just as we sat down she looked gorgeous on Angelo's arm. I looked over at Stavros he was smiling then he looked my way and I gave him the thumbs up.
I think Stavros is happy with Angelo's choice of partner and so was I.
If it can't be me it's got to be someone I won't get jealous of and Bella is a lovely girl.
Anna and Gino sat and she started talking to the girls, I will leave it up to her to introduce them around, I looked sideways at gran and she was in shock once again.
"Such nonsense Antonio, why doesn't she respect her husband."
"He loves it gran, she's young and is full of life let her be."
"I will Antonio, but the rams in this place are getting a very good eyeful." She nudged grandad who had been looking at Anna.
"I will go and play some cards now my amore."
"You do that and keep your eyes on the cards too." She gave him her instructions.
Iris was having a wine and talking to the boys who were giving her tips on hair color I think.
The band stopped playing and Sabine and Tony made their entrance, she was stunning as she stopped and posed for a few seconds, everyone's eyes were on them, I heard Iris groan.
When Sabine had made sure she had been seen she glided up to our table and Tony pulled her chair out and she sat, opposite Iris. Tony had the biggest grin on his face as he said good evening to everyone then he leaned over the table and said to Iris.
"You didn't think you could get away with it did you?"
Iris blanched and Sabine smiled her way then started talking to the girls.
"Gotcha," I said to Iris.
"You lot can go to hell, pour me another wine please Carlos." Which he did. She had better count her drinks tonight we don't want her to destroy herself in front of Sabine and company.
I had the chance when Gianni left to get more wine to ask Remo what Lukas wanted.
"He wants me to buy some biscuits, a new recipe he's been working on with gran." he giggled.
"And will you?"
"For him and gran yes Antonio, but I don't want to turn my shop into a delicatessen." He looked worried.
"I am sure it won't Remo, and the biscuits are very nice we will order some for the cafe also, they are already working at full steam let's see how long the biscuit making lasts." I smiled and winked.
There is only gran and her assistant Lukas, it's something for them to do together anyway not a full blown business.
He leaned in again and added.
"They are going to have a corporate meeting to vote on what they are going to charge for them."
I laughed and my son is now a corporate man, I wonder how his herb garden is going maybe they can add fresh herbs to their list.
Dave got up when the music started and went over to ask Nina for a dance, she also looked stunning as she accepted his request, he was in his best suit so I suppose Leon was right I would have looked out of place with my jeans and T-shirt on. Bella and Angelo danced and the girls had no trouble finding partners they were almost mobbed by a bunch of good-looking single men.
Sabine and Tony stood and she posed one more time then he took her to the dance floor, Gianni grabbed me and almost dragged me screaming onto the dance floor. I laughed so much I nearly pissed myself.
We sidled up to Angelo and Bella, they were dancing close and I said.'"Having fun kids?'
"Yes Antonio, I am now working part-time at Angelos restaurant its a wonderful business."
"That's good he can teach you heaps and it will be good to see you every day. We can compare notes." I laughed again.
Angelo winked at me, see it isn't that hard to date nice girls, I thought to myself and hopefully, I will get the goss on Angelo's love making techniques. He danced her over to Stavros's table and introduced her the men at the table were ogling her and when they danced away they all slapped Stavros's hands, his grandson has done well.
Tommaso and Maxie were dancing and his dad and mum were trying to chat to them about their wedding, but Maxie put a stop to it and kissed Tomas, which bought on the clapping and cheers.
Not to be outdone Gianni stuck his tongue in my mouth and I got an instant fatty. Gino and Anna danced up a storm any fool could see she was his and he was hers I think it's about time he took her for his wife and had a wedding.
We looked into the playroom and the littles were surrounded by ladies, they were being entertained with building blocks tonight, and Lukas was once again on the computer game with a friend he had got to know from kindy.
Anna and Gino followed us to make sure Sam was okay and then they were going to eat. We followed them and the girls with guys hanging off them were already choosing their plates, so we had a bit of a wait.
While Gianni held our places I went to see if gran wanted anything, she had a plate in front of her already and so did Iris so I moved back.
My husband smiled at me again, he's always doing that, and I blushed because now I think he's got my ass on his mind again. I did wiggle it a bit while we walked here maybe that's whats got him going.
Sabine moved in behind me and whispered.
"How is Iris?"
"Good I think, but I don't want her hitting the wine too much tonight she doesn't handle it so well."
"I will put a stop to the rivalry soon Antonio its been fun but I think it's getting out of hand now."
"She loves you to bits Sabine, and she loves what you both have."
"Really?"
"Yes, really," It was then I spied them, the two men from the cafe, they were here, how the hell would they know about this place and then the penny dropped they probably overheard the girls talking about it. I watched as Leon and Carlos took over and walked to the entrance, I guess to ask them to leave. I went and talked to Stavros he was to be ready for any trouble and to not interfere. An argument started and just about every man in the place started walking towards the doorway. They weren't welcome and had to leave, They did leave but I thought to myself this isn't over, they are a couple of losers just out to make trouble for everyone.
"They will not come back and Stavros has alerted his nephew and he said he will patrol the streets outside," Grandad said.
"Good." It was the girls I worried about the most, the men know where they were staying and all this could spell trouble for them.
Leon and Carlos slapped hands and restarted their night out, I had already decided that the girls will sleep at our place, and tomorrow we will find them alternative lodgings, maybe the boys will let them have the Cartasso apartment for a couple of weeks, or even Iris's cabana flat at her house. I needn't have worried because Sabine had insisted they stay with her for the rest of their holiday.
The night went off without a hitch, we readied ourselves for the short walk home and the boys bought a bottle for the trip.
We said our goodnights and I was pulled aside by Tina my flower warehouse manager, she asked if we could have a meeting in the following week to discuss the Italian club. I told her to talk to gran but she insisted she had instructions to talk to me about their plans. I said I will come by Tuesday to see them.
On the way home the boys were partying and the babies were all asleep even Lukas who was being carried by his papa, Iris was happy but not drunk and Alice and Federico had left earlier.
"Nice tits." I heard coming from a bar we had just passed, Gino bristled and looked around. I followed his gaze and would you know it, two very drunk familiar guys were standing at the bar on the street.
"Keep it real guys, my wife is to be respected at all times." Gino had a go at them.
"Come here lovely give us a feel" That was it he flew at them and started punching, Leon and Carlos helped and Gianni walked up to me to hand over Lukas, as he did I was pushed into the gutter by another guy that's decided his mates were being treated unfairly. I saw the cop car light up as I hit the gutter with a thud, I thanked God I didn't have Lukas in my arms. I screamed the cops called for back up and then they started to close the bar down. The three men were cuffed and made to sit on the pavement, I doubt whether they even knew what was happening they were so drunk, one guy even tried to order another beer.
"I need some help here when you are ready," I yelled and seized up.
"Antonio, let me help."
"No Please don't touch me, Gianni, please don't move me. Can you call an ambulance?"
"What for Antonio, what has happened?" It took all my strength not to scream with the pain, I had heard the crack as my leg hit the side of the gutter then I felt searing pain, which went up and down my spine.
"I don't know I think my legs broken," The absolute rage I saw on Gianni's face was pure evil, he turned around and started kicking the guys so hard I thought he was going to kill them. Thankfully the backup had arrived and was pulling him away as I heard Carlos call for the ambulance, The pain was so bad I blacked out.
"He's coming around Gianni, look his eyes are opening." I woke up in the hospital, my pain was a lot less than before but I was happy to see Gianni's face, thankfully they hadn't arrested him thanks to Stavros's nephew Shane.
"What happened?" I asked, then looked at all four of them Gianni, Leon, Carlos, and Gino.
"Your okay Antonio, a fractured leg and they are looking at your X-rays for your spine, your with us, and you are okay," Leon said, Gianni had that shocked look on his face he couldn't speak.
"How bad is my leg?"
"A clean fracture Antonio, it will heal in time. You must rest."
"Go home."
The next time I woke I felt much better whatever they are giving me is doing the job, They were all still with me and it was daylight outside when I looked over at the window. I placed my hand on Gianni's head, he had gone to sleep in my lap. He moved and looked up at me then he smiled.
"Welcome back Antonio."
"It's good to be back my husband, what is the damage I must know."
"You have a hairline fracture to your leg four to six weeks to heal, your back is safe but you must have more X-rays on it to make sure one hundred percent." He kissed my hand.
"Not there up here." I indicated my mouth.
He did what I had expected and deeply kissed me, he takes my breath away sometimes. I also got kisses from the rest of them, Ginos was the gentlest.
The boys were worried I wouldn't come out of my coma, as they called it, but I reassured them I was only sleeping and I thanked them for being so quiet. Their red eyes were telling me they hadn't slept much and when I felt around I only had a knee-length cast on, which I deemed I could live with.
Gino went to find coffee for us all and to ring Anna Gran and Alice to let them know everything is okay, Alice had stayed with the kids to look after the babies and gran has been ringing on the hour all night.
"The men, did they charge them?"
"I do not know Antonio, Stavros will be in this morning sometime and he will maybe know," Gianni said then he wanted more kissing.
The doctor was new, I hadn't seen him before but he was smiling and told me doctor Mike had called in to see if everything was okay.
"You have a hairline crack in your lower leg so a cast for two weeks then a moon boot for you Antonio, four to six weeks will see you better than ever. Your spine is perfect but we would like you to inform us if you are having trouble with it. Pain killers are supplied in copious amounts and it looks like you have plenty of help to get about." he smiled again, Gianni growled.
"Oh and you can go home when you're ready, but not in the next twenty-four hours. Is that right Mr. Gianni?"
"Yes, that is correct, doctor."
I laughed and grabbed the coffee off Gino, he always buys the coffee in these situations I mused and I was very grateful to him.
"How are the kids, how is Anna?'
"She's fine Antonio, and the kids are happy that Alice was with them, alls good.
"Thank you, my friend."
"My pleasure." He smiled at me, Gianni groaned again.
"Oh you want me to talk to you do you?" I laughed.
"Yes Antonio, and you are not so sick I can't slap your ass for being insolent to your husband."
I laughed louder.
Four hours and many phone conversations saw me being wheeled into the X-ray room again, they are pretty thorough here.
Flowers arrived from Conner and Brent with their good wishes and Gianni hovered over me like a mother hen. Gran and grandad came in carrying one big boy and the other three were with Alice and Iris. They were placed on the bed and when he saw me Luca started to cry, he missed me the most. Lukas wanted to see my cast and Leon handed him a marker pen so he could draw on it for me. The kids were kissed and cuddled and so were gran and the ladies. There was nothing I could do about it because accidents happen but I do know Leon and Carlos are up to something. They had been making phone calls all morning to Shane the cop, the men had been bailed out and were charged with public foray causing bodily harm. They were furious because they insisted they be charged with murder, that's how angry they were.
"They do not touch our family Antonio, no one touches our family and gets away with it."
"They are just a couple of stupid drunks Leon let it go, let the cops handle it, please?"
"No, Antonio we do not give up so easily, we are Cartasso."
"Have it your way then, but I don't know what you can do about it without getting into trouble yourselves." He grinned at me.
"Did the girls stay at Sabines Iris?"
"Yes Antonio, they are loving it there and so they should. Although Bella didn't make it home and they were a little worried."
Sabine and Tony arrived she was in full flight and had more coffee for me, and flowers.
"You will come and live with us while you mend Antonio, I will not have any arguments." I looked at gran she stood up straight and looked Sabine in the eyes.
"That's in case your nona doesn't want you that is." she giggled.
"That's better Sabine, he will stay in his home with his babies and I will move in." Nona has spoken, and Sabine went quiet, nonna's outrank everybody.
"Thank you dear mother in law, but I would be more comfortable at home."
"Then Gianni must come and stay with me he will annoy you during the night." Gianni bristled and I answered.
"He's counting on it, mama," He then looked at me and grinned, this will be interesting.
"I will need someone to oversee the event Sabine like help Nina out a bit she knows what I have to do."
"Okay, I will help her and your brothers will help also."
I wanted to talk to Sabine about something but my leg was starting to throb again so I asked Gianni to call a nurse.
The nurse didn't come but the doctor did.
"So we have a throbber here do we."
"Yes in more ways than one," Carlos said. I pulled little Gianni up the bed a bit because he was going to have a nap on my leg.
He noticed me flinch and gave me a pill.
"This won't put me to sleep will it?"
"It will make you a little drowsy but I'm sure you will be able to stay awake."
The room got quite crowded and my pain settled down, Angelo and Bella came with flowers and she was very upset about it all, she told me the girls were okay and last night she has made her mind up she doesn't want to do all this anymore, and will stay in Sydney while the racing season is on next year.
"Or you can stay with me and we can work on your waiting skills." Angelo smiled.
"There's nothing wrong with my skills Angelo, it's your people skills we have to work on."
"What?"
"You heard." A partnership made in heaven, a pushy wife, and a subservient husband I love the Italian life.
"Okay children, that's enough," Stavros said as he walked into the room with more flowers. It was so good to see him and he stopped short of kissing my cheeks.
Gran had taken the chair next to the bed and she had little Gianni, Luca did what he was expected to do and fell asleep on my shoulder and Antonio was being entertained by Alice in another chair.
The boys pulled Stavros aside and a piece of paper was handed to them. I know they are up to no good, but I let it go because two seconds later I fell asleep.
I missed little Lucas warmth when I woke again but instead of him, I saw it was Gianni's eyes that were staring back at me, the dirty bugger had his hand on my dick and was playing with it. I suppose it was happy when he pulled harder and I blew out a magnificent orgasm. The room was empty there were only us two in it, he said he sent the boys home but they said they will wait outside until I wake up from my 'coma'.
I am hopeful I can be allowed to go home sometime today, twenty four hours in this place is driving me nuts. When Gianni cleaned me up he called the boys in, Carlos was red-eyed still and Leon went to find the coffee machine.
"Are you okay Antonio?"
"Yes my Carlos, it will take more than a cracked leg to tie me down."
"I will look after you and make sure you are comfortable.'
"I will let you do that for me, my lovely man,"
Gianni laughed because there was no way he will be hosting them in our bed when I get home.
It took another six hours for me to be released, the cast will come off in two weeks and it will be replaced with a moon boot. I had to learn how to use crutches before I left and the greatest relief I have had lately was Gianni buckling me up in the van.
Apart from a little drowsiness, I feel okay, the pain killers I had were very good but underneath it all, I could still feel that numb throb. My babies were so pleased to have me home and Lukas wouldn't let me go, he asked if I wanted coffee or a biscuit then he sat with me and held my hand. Gianni sat on the other side and I had to push him away because he was constantly kissing my cheek.
"I will get you into bed Antonio, then we will have a nap together." I did a double-take it was Carlos talking to me.
"Yes please my Carlos, I am a little weary."
"Good now Gianni you can sleep in the spare room, we don't want any accidents during the night."
"Carlos, thank you but I will be the one placing Antonio into our bed and you will be the one to be sleeping in your very own room."
Carlos wanted to argue telling Gianni he has medical experience and should be the one to look out for me.
"Daddy I will look after you."
"I wish you could baby, I think you had better sleep in my bed tonight." Lukas grinned and answered.
"My brothers too?"
"Yes, my beautiful son."
I didn't care who slept with me but my husband and sons get priority, I hope they aren't restless.
I ended up sleeping next to Gianni and Lukas, the babies were in-between Carlos and Leon my eldest son held me my Gianni watched.
I had to take a pain killer around one, and Gianni had the water and pills by his side of the bed. I took it and looked into his eyes.
"I missed you."
"I am happy it was only a broken leg and not your back."
I saw a tear and started kissing him until I fell asleep. He said in the morning he had taken the lead from me when he was sick, he wouldn't go down that rabbit hole he would be strong for me. I think maybe during the night he went down it a bit, I reassured him everything will be okay, it's a minor upset to our daily lives.
"He's wet," I said.
"I'll get it." Leon got out of bed and took Luca off me, he had moved onto my shoulder during the night and was now slapping my face, because if he's awake everybody's awake.
I kissed Lukas and he went off because he has a tv program waiting for him, five minutes later I hear grans voice and Lukas bought them both into the bedroom to see me. I waved and smiled, then she was giving the orders.
"You stay there Antonio, I will do the babies and then we will have a lovely breakfast, you must eat something grandson."
My god I had forgotten that food in her world heals everything, I touched my nose and remembered my recovery at her place, there had been food, it was everywhere.
Gianni took me to the toilet and held my dick as I peed, then he placed a plastic garden chair in the shower and taped a plastic bag around the cast. I sat there while he tended to me in every way, then I attended to him, my mouth was very happy it was still working perfectly. Another pain killer and good morning kisses from my boys, then gran had me for a half-hour, she had a smorgasbord of food on the table, and had already called Iris and the kids up, so it was a sort of homecoming party for me.
There was no work today which I was pleased with because the idea of spending the whole day being forced fed wasn't my wish, I wished to go back to bed with my Gianni.
I picked out some clothes for Lukas, he's got kindy today, he didn't want to go but I convinced him his friends would miss him, he made sure I was going to be okay and was torn between the two but he went with a big smile on his face. Gran did his lunch box and it was crammed full of treats, I looked at her and she took the mars bars out.
"That's better we have to look out for his teeth remember?"
"Do not tell this grandmother what she should or should not be doing she just forgot this morning because she is so worried about your bad leg."
"It will be fine gran, don't worry so much." She huffed and went back to doing the dishes. Maxie and Tommaso didn't have much to say they were going across the road because a container was arriving but did say if I needed them to take the babies they would, they can play with Sam in the shops.
Gianni wanted them here with us and said we might come for a walk later on to see Sam. When the boys heard Sams name they all ran for the lift calling his name.
"Take them for an hour or two, they can watch the container being unloaded."
With little hands in their's they left to go do some work, Anna will watch them anyway.
Lukas was taken to kindy by his uncles and that left me with Iris gran and grandad and of course Gianni.
"What have you decided to do with the event Antonio?"
"Not much Iris, Nina will oversee it and hopefully the boys will check that it is all good."
"I see, is there much to do?"
"No Iris the tent with the flooring will be installed Friday that gives us the weekend to set it up. I have rented a midnight blue ceiling and want to dot bud lighting around to give the effect of a starry night."
I didn't want to use the Van Gogh painting its a bit scary looking so an evening sky with little stars will do.
"Has the wine arrived at the warehouse, Gianni?"
"Today Antonio, I must go there and get some for us." I think he's going to wine and dine me to death.
"The rest Nina will know what to do, the ladies are cooking for both events and waiters have been hired for the week. The goats and horses arrive Monday."
"What?" Iris shouted.
"Just joking with you Iris is your outfit ready?"
"Yes Antonio, I guess I will have to wear it seeing my dressmaker went to so much trouble."
"Whose your dressmaker Iris?" Gran asked.
"Cody Mitchell." She laughed.
"Same as Sabines."
It was Iris's time to make a deep-throated sound.
"She might be a little outsmarted by another lady if there's any luck in the world." I smiled, I know Sabine will have a lot of competition, winning isn't a given for her, but she expects it.
"Why? what do you know Antonio?"
"Nothing Iris, just saying there are forty or more women that will be entering not just Sabine."
"Mama will win Antonio, she's beautiful." Gianni smiled.
"She is." Iris smiled also.
The boys arrived back with a present for me, they said Lukas ran off to play and they had to promise they will pick him up. The wheelchair was lovely I nearly shrieked when I saw it. They had decorated it with silk flowers and ribbons, my embarrassment is going to be huge. The cast wasn't bothering me it was just a heavyweight to lug around but that throbbing feeling was back again. I hope they had bound it properly because I don't want to end up with a limp, not that it's any big deal it's just vanity on my part.
Gianni went to change our bed, I think he's thinking I might like to lay down sometime today so I was left at the table with Iris and gran.
"You have a meeting with the ladies Antonio, do you want me to cancel it?" Gran asked. I had forgotten our meeting today. I thought about it and asked her to put it off until Thursday I doubt whether I will be going into work any time soon, maybe in a couple of weeks.
"Do you know what they want gran?"
"Yes they are going to renovate the kitchen they need more room."
"They don't need my okay to do that surely."
"They do everything by the book, I have offered several times but they refuse. That's why they pay only half the rent it's worth Antonio. They do a lot of good work for the community and now the vegetable stall is coming along nicely they have the cash to do a nice kitchen and maybe some of the children's room. They need your permission because the renovations will be done in your name so you get the benefit of the taxation."
"Okay I get it, I will speak to them Thursday then."
"They are lovely ladies Antonio, do not offer to pay for it yourself.' She knows what I'm thinking, uncanny.
"No gran but maybe I will install a small bar so the wine can be served separately."
"You will do no such thing Antonio, they keep their eyes on who buys and who is having too much, from the kitchen."
"It works well then gran I had better not suggest that then." I giggled.
"Well if there's nothing else to do for you I will be making tracks home I have some biscuits to bake."
"Thank you gran for everything you do for us. Are the biscuits for Remo?"
"Yes, apparently my salesman has sold three dozen to his little stall." She grinned.
"He's a real asset to your business gran."
"He is Antonio and now he wants a commission." She belly laughed.
She and grandad left and Iris said she was going across the road to play with the kids, she winked at me and looked at the boys.
"Coming?"
They looked at her and replied.
"No, we have to look after Antonio."
"No you don't, come on walk this old lady across the road." She winked at them and thank God they got the message.
Gianni made sure I was positioned properly, one bad leg on a pillow and the other over his shoulder, he kept interrupting his movements to make sure I was fine, I didn't notice if I was or wasn't I was in raptures and kept my ass moving.
We exhausted ourselves and lay there just talking for a while then I fell asleep after he cleaned me up. The bed shook later on and Gianni was heading for the toilet, I could hear the boys talking out on the balcony and thought I had better get up myself. I took a wrong turn and fell out of bed. Thankfully I wasn't harmed but Gianni rushed in to see what had happened.
"Stay there Antonio, I will finish my pee and come and get you."
"Okay nurse."
I liked Gianni nursing me, there was nothing too bad for him to do for me. He insisted he hold my dick again and after I peed he wiped then rinsed it with his mouth.
