Anna drank too much Shiraz that night. It was very late by the time they got back to her place.
The minute they opened the door Gian picked her up and carried her to the bedroom.
Perhaps it was all the wine she’d drunk or the anticipation of sex with Gian or maybe she was besotted mid air by the he-man effect. Maybe it was the lack of oxygen up there in his arms.
Whatever it was that was the very moment Anna declared her love for Gian. Oh yes, she declared it alright. I love you so much I could puke. At the time it seemed a perfectly good way to express her love.
She held her breath. He didn't respond.
