The Virgin Mafia

TVM14

As they reach the shore, Gianni slowly gets down while Francois is holding his hand. Francois's friend avoided talking about what had happened earlier with Gianni.

They promise not to mention the incident in Gianni's presence because they don't want Gianni to feel different and let the person feel comfortable with them.

Gianni thought he caused too much trouble and became extra baggage to the group.

“Gianni! Come, let's cook this.” Alessia said and Francesca quickly pulled Gianni's hand to make him feel welcome and at ease. They are cooking pork and beef barbeque flavor, meat, squid, and lobster balls, and other seafood for their lunch while Alejandro is preparing the sauce.

The boys are playing volleyball and having fun under the sun. Francois is always making a scene to get some attention from Gianni who is watching them from time to time while cooking. Gianni finds Francois both hot and sexy in his swimwear.

Francois is just smiling at him every time their eyes meet. And that is too obvious from the rest.

Gianni is busy with his thoughts. His face is blushing now when he remembers their make-out session behind the yacht. He can't believe he became as bold as that. But he liked it, he liked the feeling, the fact that it was Francois who pleased him.

He loves the feeling and he will not deny it. He doesn't care at all whether it's just lust and desire for Francois. Gianni thought Francois's heart is already occupied by his first love whom he doesn't know still existed in his life or he just keeps and treasures the memories and still cannot move on.

Gianni's heart clenched in pain by his own crazy anticipated thoughts. All he knows, he loves Francois but he can't have the man. There he goes again. He promised to himself, over and over again, to distance himself once they got back to the city and started to work.

For now, on this island, he will cherish the moments and experiences they shared and keep them in his heart as his sweetest memories.

“Gianni...it's burning already..” Gianni goes back to his senses when Francesca speaks. He saw the pork barbeque already in total black and cannot be consumed.

Francesca and Alessia just set the table and chairs and when they get back, Gianni's pork is already burning.

Francesca chuckles as she knows Gianni is in a bewildering moment. Francesca remembers the days when she started to like Salvatore, her heart and mind are confused but she knows she loves her husband already. She can see herself now to an innocent Gianni.

“Gianni, can I ask you something..?”

“Sure, sure. You can ask me anything.”

“Have you ever loved someone before?”

Gianni shakes his head and Francesca smiles. “

How about at present, do you love someone?”

Gianni's eyes widen as he feels Francesca is trying to catch his feeling to a certain someone and confess it.

“Eheerm.” Francois made a fake cough which suddenly appeared followed by the rest. Alejandro calls them already because the lunch is prepared. The two don't know if Francois heard their conversation and Gianni's face turns red.

Gianni starts to pick his plate as the food is served in a buffet style. Francois is just observing him while holding his plate and waiting for his turn when Gianni gets enough food, his eyes search for Francois and when he turns his back, Francois smiles.

“This is for you,” Gianni pulls the empty plate from Francois's hand and gives him the plate he filled with seafood. He knows Francois loves seafood more than meat.

After Gianni fills the empty plate, he sits on a vacant chair he saw. But before his bottom reaches the chair, Francois speaks.

“Sit beside me,” Francois said and move a little bit to have some space for Gianni. Hai Kuan stands up and transfers to the empty chair, smiling widely because next to it is Jiang Cheng.

They all eat happily, keep teasing and chatting a little bit.

“Hmmm.Hmmm...BoBo, so good..” Gianni moans as he licks his finger one by one while his eyes are closed.

Forgetting the people around him as he enjoyed his best weakness ever. Everyone stops talking as their jaw drops witnessing Gianni enjoying his finger-licking session. The habit he can't avoid once he eats food with his fingers.

Francois looked at them one by one and widened his eyes and shook his head, saying to ignore Gianni. Everyone looks down and continues to eat but keeps smiling maliciously.

“Is it good?” Francois asked, pretending he doesn't care what Gianni just did.

“Yes...” But Gianni's eyes roamed around to check if they saw him.

He feels relieved when he feels everyone doesn't care at all. Alejandro's go pro is always on the go so he recorded their lunchtime including Gianni's morning habit.

After they finished eating all of them decided to go swimming except for Alejandro who just loves to record and take photos and videos.

Gianni is just standing near the shore because he doesn't know how to swim. Everyone kept encouraging him and Gianni decided to dip into the water but when the water reached his knees, he retreated and ran.

Francois chased him and he caught him on his waist. Alejandro enjoyed recording the video and everyone laughed as Gianni tried to run away from Francois.

Francois carried him in a bridal style and brought him to the deeper part. Gianni automatically clung his legs to Francois's waist and snaked his arms on his neck. Francois keeps teasing him more and Gianni just laughs when he remembers that position.

“Bring me to the shallow part, teach me how to swim,” Gianni suggested before he felt weird again.

Francois understood and Francois taught him some basic strokes.

The sun is starting to set when they decide to get back to the shore and start to prepare their dinner. This is their last night here on the island and tomorrow the helicopter will pick up the things.

It's bedtime now but Gianni is feeling uncomfortable thinking something weird might happen again.

“Gianni..relax...I won't do anything ok?”

Feeling convinced, Gianni nodded and laid his back on the blanket, and closed his eyes. Francois closes the light and dozes off. The next morning, the squad became curious again and wanted to have a crazy photo with the two heavy log sleepers. Alejandro's camera rolls as they are all excited about what sleeping position will surprise them.

Leandro slowly pulls down the zipper as he counts one...two...three... and they are all surprised.

Francois is hugging Gianni's back while hands are wrapped around his body. The two are sleeping peacefully. As usual, they executed their plans and when satisfied, Leandro closed the zipper again and left the two to continue their sleep.

The helicopter arrived and picked their things and all of them

paddled to the yacht and captain Camillo signaled Francois who is now the helmsman.

When they arrive at the mansion, Gianni quickly runs to his occupied room and showers. Francois did the same as they felt sticky from salted water.

Gianni dries his hair and lays his back on the bed until he dozes off.

“Gianni...Gianni..wake up, you didn't eat anything,” he said, shaking his body.

“Hmmm, what time is it?” Gianni rubs his eyes and looks at Francois whose face is just inches apart from him.

“It's three o'clock already..”

Francois was about to kiss him on his lips but he avoided it and pushed away Francois's face gently. Gianni promised to distance himself when they get back to the city.

Francois feels confused and steps backward as he stares at Gianni who is not looking at him. His hands turned to a ball until his knuckles turned white and gritted his teeth. Is he playing on my feelings?

Am I a toy to you Gianni?

Francois storms out of the room and slams the door. Gianni thought this is the only way he knows not to fall deep to Francois. Someday Francois will get tired of him and he will leave him once he gets what he wants. He doesn't want to get drowned in lust and desire. Gianni's tears fall as he remembers Francois is keeping his first love memories so much. And he doesn't want to get hurt in the end.

It's Monday and Gianni prepares himself early. Francois will orient and teach him his job description. This is a serious job and he needs to focus. Francois didn't join him during breakfast. Finally, Francois gets into the car. The driver starts the engine and they leave. They are both sitting in the backseat without talking. Francois is busy checking his schedules and list of the malls they are going to visit and informs the driver.

Gianni is a fast learner and Francois explained to him detail by detail the process and workflow. It's already two o'clock in the afternoon and lunchtime has already passed. Gianni is very hungry already but Francois seems to have no plan of taking a break.

While they were inside the car, Francois received an overseas call.

“Hello, Gu Ying. What's up?”

The caller speaks in Korean. Francois speaks Korean too and they talk for a while.

Gianni is eavesdropping secretly, and he can hear the voice of a woman on the other line talking softly.

Francois cut the call and asked the driver to send them home quickly.

Gianni wanted to ask more about his next destination but Francois was in a hurry. He even wanted to protest because they didn't eat lunch yet.

When they reach the mansion, Francois quickly runs up to his room and pulls medium luggage and prepares his clothes and takes some important papers, his passport, and quickly leaves.

Gianni, who is taking shower, didn't know that Francois left already. When he went downstairs, the helper gave him a platinum credit card.

“Sir Gianni, Sir Francois left for Korea, he said I'll give this to you.”

Gianni feels like he was slapped with a flat frying pan. He was left dumbfounded. He quickly runs up to his room to check his phone hoping Francois sent a message for him.
