Those flaming heart emojis mean that this Chapter contains elements of "Real Life Sh*t". I'd know, because I'm basing this roughly off an experience I've actually had. Expect the "Liv X Oc" Part to begin here too. I'm cranking up their relationship as of now ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) so yeah, Skip this if you aren't into that Hawt sh*t. I'll attempt to mix in a little humor too, because I always find a way to do that :-)

Rico paced the pool deck. All that's been on his mind is Jake. His actions had left Rico nervous and with quite Crippling Anxiety following Gionna's head injury scare on the cruise ship. Speaking of Gionna, she was swimming in said hotel pool that Rico was pacing the deck of. She was cooling off after a long day, as the outdoor pool was graced by a full moon and a sky full of stars. Every so often, Gionna would stop swimming around and just gaze up at the horizon. "Oh my god. So Breathtaking..." She muttered. Her gaze fell on Rico, still pacing. She rolled her eyes, smiled, and splashed him with some water. He snapped out of his outwardly calm, yet internally panicked state of mind. "Yeah, what's up?" He said, as if just trying to focus on whatever he was thinking about... yet, seeing Liv smile at him just made him forget whatever he was thinking about. Liv/Gionna (whatever you prefer. I'll call her Liv for the rest of this to avoid confusion) swam over to a ledge that separated the pool from the Hotel Hot tub. She climbed over the Ledge, then slowly dipping her body down into the Pool of hot water. She motioned for Rico to come in. He sighed. He hadn't really planned on anything, despite being changed into his bathing suit... but then the thought, "Meh, Why not? We barely ever get a chance to relax these days..."

Rico entered the Hot tub, Sliding next to Liv. She leaned against his shoulder. "How many times do you think we've gotten to just... enjoy this? Not too Hot out, not too cold... Hot tub Aaaall to ourselves, And the biggest night of the year on the Horizon... yet there's something else in the air, Yknow." She sighed, her smile never fading. Rico chuckled. "Since when did you start becoming the Inspirational Author? That for some Romance novel you're secretly writing?" He teased, causing Liv to laugh. "No, Silly. Just... kinda speakin' from the heart, Y'know? Don't ya ever do that?" Rico shrugs. "No." Liv tilts her head in confusion. "I can't speak from my heart. I don't really have one... See, I gave it to you." She was silent for a moment, touched by his words. Then, their eyes met... She was thinking, "Damn... He's amazing." And Rico was thinking, "Damn... I could use a KitKat Bar right now... Also, holy Hell, she looks nice in that bathing suit..." of course he was thinking that. It's Liv in a swimsuit, most guys would think that as it is.

Seeing he was oblivious to her deepest thoughts, Liv took action, Climbing over him, sitting on his thighs, with one leg on each side of his hips. Rico's face turned red. Liv's arms rested on his shoulders. "Rico, You really have no clue what women want, do you?" She asks with a chuckle, unknowingly blushing herself. Rico shook his head. "Not a clue-" he was obviously flustered, but his hand found their way to her waist. Liv's hands moved to his face, leaning in...

At last, their lips made contact. Even though the first one was short, it felt like a dragged out, slowed down, or maybe even eternal moment in time. But this one only left both unsatisfied. Liv went back in for another, to which Rico happily engaged in, this time, they were much less sheepish, not as shy this time around. They went from keeping their relationship, their personal lives, a best kept secret, but now, they no longer cared.

Here's not giving a damn who saw what they were doing, love is love, Dammit!

It wasn't long before Rico felt her slowly starting to shift her lower body, causing it to press against his. "Oh, f*cking great-" he thought. "She's totally H*rny now..." Usually, Rico didn't care as much for this kind of stuff.... but for some reason, ever since that Accident on the boat that almost left her with lasting head trauma, he began to strangely not mind these private moments where the Characters could fade away and the people could just Live their lives, enjoying the company, the embrace and comfort of being with someone you love.

Liv's lower body, Specifically her hip area, began slowly shifting as it pressed against Him. "Such a Dirty girl..." He thought as their make-out session continued, feeling her beginning to grind on him. He placed one hand on her upper thigh, tracing along the outer part of her leg, going back up until he reached the back end of her bathing suit, giving the rather large group of muscle she had known as her glutes (yes, he squeezed that ass). Gasping from his touch, She broke away for a moment, resting her head on his shoulder so she was right in his ear.
"I love you." She whispered. He smiles. He didn't want to just say any simple thing... he had a sort of confession to make.

"Liv... no, Gionna... I know I don't nearly say it as much as you do..." She backed up a little, So that she was looking him in the eyes as he spoke.
"...But I love you. And I never get to tell you why." She cracked a slight smirk. "Alright. Why do you, Ricardo Jaire Jamison, love me?" He smiled and caressed her face gently with one hand. "Why? Why not? What's there not to adore? Sure, I could say your looks and such, but that's only the cover of the book that is yourself. Inside this book, you'll find a vast range of the most joyful words ever put to paper. You'll laugh when indulging In the chapters, you'll be kept in suspense by the drama, you'll cry when the hero falls short... but Hell, it's Something you can't put down. You're not like anyone else, Gio. Your personality drew me to you. When I saw you, I didn't see some Sexy bodied Waitress. I saw a firecracker of a girl who loved life. A girl who wanted to follow her dreams, who knew what she was destined to do from Day One." She smiled, knowing he was far from done. "Plus, You're drop dead gorgeous, which is quite the bonus. I've never met any woman as caring and as kindhearted as you. You put up with my Bullshit when I was at Rock Bottom, refusing to leave me there. You pulled me out when you didn't have to. You saved me. Gionna Gene Daddio... I never say this enough, but I love you, and not a day goes bye where I'm not thankful you're in my life." She wiped her eye... not because she was tearing up, some water got in there! (Suuuuure Liv, you hopeless romantic 🤣)

"I- I don't even know what to say..." She said with a grin. A voice yelled, "GET BACK TO MAKIN' OUT, THAT SHIT WAS HOT!" Damian Priest's voice Called out Jokingly. Another voice, one belonging to All time Legendary Comedy Wrestler Ron "R-Truth" Killings, responded, "BUT I DON' EVEN KNOW IF THA'S P.G.!!!"

Liv and Rico both chuckled. "F*ck you, Luis." Rico said with a laugh. Priest laughed while he flipped Rhodes the bird. Truth kept chastising Priest for not Being "PG".

Liv grabbed her towel. Rico yawned... when he opened his eyes, Liv's towel was wrapped around her torso... and she, as a joke, threw her bathing suit top at Rico, which made a damp "Smack" as it collided with his face. It took a moment for Rico to realize what this meant. She grinned and teasingly dropped the bottoms down her legs. The towel was covering "that part" of her, but Dropping her suit meant only one thing... Rico jumped up out of the hot tub, knowing something she most likely was hinting at...

——————— due to not wanting to be reported, and out of fear that R-Truth will break down my doors for not Being PG, I've decided to skip the next 5 or so hours ————————

R

ico lay awake at 5 AM. Liv was passed out, sheets covering everything up to her shoulders, arms over the sheet, as her head was cuddled against his chest. One of his arms were over her shoulders. She was passed out from their "Nightly acivities" a few hours prior, yet Rico was wide awake. He glanced down at her... he had to use the restroom. Which was awfully inconvenient. He tried shifting her off him, but it woke her up. She softly groaned, sore from the past few hours, minorly upset that her comfy body pillow had moved. "Whyyyyy..." She groans. He smirks, Going to use the restroom.

One moderately long Morning Boner Piss later...

Rico plopped down in bed again. Liv cuddled up to him again. "Yaaaay~" She squeaked adorably. Her hand traced the rose tattoo on his chest. She pulled herself up and kissed his cheek, causing him to smile. She promptly passed out again, Using his chest/shoulder as a pillow once more. Content with his current situation, Rico ever so slightly moved to grab the TV remote. He flicked on the TV, turning to something to keep him occupied until Liv woke back up in a few hours.

"I can get used to this." He thought.

———END CHAPTER———

If you're wondering, yes, the Hot tub thing was indeed the thing that was roughly based off my real experience. It was severely toned down, as I had a VERY horny girlfriend, who is now my Ex. So yeah, I can write that stuff from experience, but I'd rather not get reported for this stuff, so Unless there's some good reason, I won't write out the more graphic shit, only the Leadup to it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Anywho, Thanks for reading my Horn-Dog 3 AM chapter 🤣
