Summary: love blossoms at a party.
Disclaimer: However I do not own Fernando Torres (unfortunately) or his family. I also do not own the other footballers mentioned in my story. This is just fiction, not the reality.
Authors Notes: this is meant to be a Halloween fic ;D
It was like a fairy tale. I met my princess at the ball, the Liverpool FC Halloween party. I was wearing a pirate costume, with complimentary eye patch and detachable hook.
She was wearing a princess dress, a long beige gown with rosebuds locking her cleavage and half her face was covered with a silk red mask, matching the roses on her dress.
Her hair was styled in elaborate curls, surely a work of art that took a few hours, making her sweet porcelain face look angelic and innocent. The red sensual mask next to the peachy flesh of her cheeks made her look incredibly sexy, a true Lolita.
I was in awe watching her sip her punch, her pouty red lips curved on the glass sending shivers down my spine, filling my head with sinful thoughts.
I wanted to know who she is, but every time I wanted to approach her, someone stopped me for some small talk, or advice or something similarly trivial.
I was beginning to lose my temper with all the interfering morons, how dared they stop me from meeting the girl that had charmed me? So just as I was about to excuse myself from an insipid conversation with Claudine when I saw my romantic beauty being deep in conversation with none other than my good teammate Daniel Agger.
I gasped seeing her smile and laugh with him, looking up at him somehow in admiration, even if I couldn't actually see her eyes. Agger, dressed as Superman, was seemingly chatting her up, because he had that flirting smile I had seen on him every time he talked to a beautiful woman.
I could no longer take it, and Claudine noticed I wasn't paying attention, so I excused myself and went out of the room. I paced towards the terrace. I needed a bit of cool air, even if it was rather cold outside.
If Daniel is talking to her, then the game is over for me, how could I interfere into their conversation, charm her and make her choose me? No, I cannot do that. She's lost for me. One thing is certain, someone must know her, so I can still find out who my destiny could've been, who my destiny was supposed to be.
There was one person who knew them all, who knew who all the guests were, and that was Stevie's wife, Alex. I didn't really like her, there was an indefinite sensation of distaste whenever I met her, but she was my only hope.
So I went back inside, avoiding looking at the place where my unknown charmer and Agger were chatting and approached the Leopard lady, Alex, dressed in a tight leopard print catsuit, with matching boots, claws and cute fuzzy ears.
"You're missing the whiskers." I said with a smile.
"Oh, Nando, I'm not putting anything on my face that resembles a mustache." she laughed cordially, but I still felt a bit of a chill. She sure didn't like me too much either.
"Of course not." I laughed back. I was wondering what kind of people get invited to these things..."
"Interested in anyone in particular...?" she looked at me slyly, as if she was on to something.
There were two possible approaches. To say no and discuss the guest list generally, hoping I'll manage to mention my Rosalinde without her noticing, but having to sit through a boring expose, or to ask her about my innocent rose straight away, hoping that she won't make a big deal out of it.
Bored to death or the possibility of having everyone know I'm eying Agger's chick?
I looked her in the eye and asked coyly "Well, you could say that, Alex, although interested is not the right word for it. It's someone I've never seen before and I was wondering if she's a WAG."
"Oh...who?" Alex was intrigued.
Have I fooled her? My heart was beginning to race a bit but hopefully she didn't notice anything.
"That girl talking to Daniel."
Alex looked around until she spotted the tall defender and his dialog partner. She stared at them, checking her out, trying to figure out where she's seen her before, or if she ever had.
I was growing more and more impatient and slightly disappointed because Alex's face was not lit up by recognition, quite on the contrary, she seemed just as puzzled as I had been when i first spotted her.
"Nando, I have no idea who she is. Not with that mask anyway. I think you and I both will have to wait till midnight." She let out an uncomfortable laugh, she was certainly annoyed she was not in on Agger's new girlfriend.
"I guess we'll have to wait."
"Actually, I think I'll go introduce myself." The nervous Alex said and left on the spot, leaving me behind, too slow to catch her.
there goes my chance! Although popping up with Alex to inquire who she is would certainly alert Dan. I guess I'll have to be patient.
I looked at my watch, it was barely a quarter to 11. Plenty of time to go and I felt that lurking around and staring at her would just draw attention to me and cause me grief, so I mingled with the guests, took part in conversations and even flirted with a Snow White, probably a wannabe WAG.
Time was dragging. I had no idea why I didn't just go say hi, it's not like she was Dan's property, I could talk to her. But every time I decided to do that, something stopped me. She was too beautiful, too perfect, too mesmerizing, and I knew I'd blush and give myself away, and I couldn't do that in front of my teammate.
I was usually quite good with flirting and I worked my charms the right way every time I wanted, but this time, I was the enchanted one, simply subdued by this mysterious person. And being unable to make a move really affected me much more than I wanted to admit.
Half an hour before midnight, the band started playing and the dancing commenced. This activity was a lot better than the meaningless conversations with people I wasn't interested in.
I was dancing with Claudine when I realized that Daniel and my beloved masked lady were dancing right next to us. And I knew, I just knew I had to do something.
I quickly excused myself with Claudine and turned to the pair.
"Can I break in?" I struggled to make my voice sound normal, but from their faces, it was obvious that I failed.
"Sure mate." Daniel shrugged and put me her hand in mine.
I put my other hand on her waist and brought her close to mine. She looked at me, offering the most beautiful smile ever, the sensual red lips curved over pearly white teeth. I looked at her eyes through the mask, the most intense blue eyes I have ever seen, cerulean and immense. I felt like swimming in a fresh mountain lake when I gazed into them.
She looked at me with a sort of urgency in her eyes, almost frightened by how close she was to me and I really wanted to tell her how much I love her.
I love her, I love this woman I don't even know, this woman I'm not supposed to want, to desire or to have, I love her!
"Nando..." she whispered and her voice sounded like an angel's descending from heaven. It was soft and suave and tender.
"Yes?" I whispered back, confused by the unexpected passion in her tone.
"It's almost midnight..." she said, with a sigh I have only previously heard off the lips of a climaxing woman.
is she flirting with me? This frail innocent beauty, is she coming onto me with Daniel just a few feet away?
I was stunned, amazed and aroused at the same time. She wanted me and I wanted her, I wanted to take her, to let her know that she makes my heart flutter.
As I looked into those eyes, as I watched her full lips whisper and sigh so close to mine, I realized I didn't care about society rules and Daniel and where we were. All I cared about was the fact that this woman and I were meant for each other and the way we swayed together on the music was the closest thing to making love.
Words weren't necessary, there was a perfect communion between us. The way her fingertips touched the back of my neck, the way she looked at me, with eyes burning of desire, the way she said my names that sounded so erotic on her lips, she was making love to me then and there, on the dance floor.
I felt shivers down my spine, and warmth in the pit of my stomach and I knew I had to do something to quench my insatiable thirst I have had for her the entire night. And now, that I had her in my arms, I could finally do what I wanted to do ever since I saw her.
I drew closer and closer leaned down, and with a kiss, I made her mine.
