Title- Kiss Me I'm Italian
Chapter 7- Here I Am
~Story~
When the aplause ended, and Ric went over and help his partner's fingers as she came down, Claudia broke her kiss with Sonny. "Whatdoya think? Got talent?"
"In and out of bed..." He growled sexily into her ear, his breathes tickling it. She sat in his lap, and took down another shot of tequila. Skylar and Ric came back to the table with a new bottle of Jose Cuervo, took their rightful seats and joined in all the laughter.
"Alright, the newest Pussy Cat Dolls stood up and sang, who's next?! You..." Skylar pointed into Ric's chest, then to Sonny, "Or you...?"
"I aint gettin' up there and making a fool out of myself!" Sonny leaned back into his chair even more, Claudia pressing her body to his, and looked to the latest addition of the Corinthos-Morgan-Zacchara organization. When he thought he finally convinced the others, he looked to his younger brother. "How about you Ric?"
"Uhh...No...At least not yet. Maybe after another bottle or two. I never wanna remember what happened when and if I earn the Kareoke King title." He smiled, then gave a quick, unseen glance to Skylar.

Almost an hour had passed and Skylar had been jumping around on tables, flirting with random guys and many other things. Claudia and Sonny babbling about nothing with Ric, everyone of them drunk as hell. Mr. Lansing stood up, his eyes starting to cross, his legs whobbly. "Coleman...get it ready. I'm goin' up!"
After a few moments of struggle, Ric was standing up on stage, acting as if he never touched a glass of tequila. "I was so high I did not recognize. The fire burning in her eyes. The chaos that controlled my mind. Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane. Never to return again. But always in my heart" He sang wildly, turning many single ladies on.
"This love has taken its toll on me! She said goodbye too many times before!" Sonny, now completely drunk and waving around his wife's purse and wearing her sunglasses, sang behind his younger brother unexpectedly. Ric stared at him in astonishment, but soon began to start singing again.
"And her heart is breaking in front of me. I have no choice cause I wont say goodbye anymore!" The dark, devious man walked around and kissed a blond's hand, then left quickly.
"I tried my best to feed her appetite!" Mr. Corinthos linked his arm with his brother's. Everyone knew he would regret this night for the rest of his life.
"Keep her coming every night. So hard to keep her satisfied." Both brother's let go and danced around the bar. Both stared at the women they came with for a brief moment, then continued the party.
"Kept playing love like it was just a game. Pretending to feel the same. Then turn around and leave again." Sonny's deep singing voice gave Claudia a slight arousal, but she kept herself under control.
"This love has taken its toll on me. She said goodbye too many times before!" Ric repeated his older brother's first line, and drank the last bit of some young red head's drink, then kissed her cheek.
"And her heart is breaking in front of me. I have no choice cause I won t say goodbye anymore." Both the brother's finally sang at the same time, bringing many girls to their knees.
"I'll fix these broken things. Repair your broken wings. And make sure everythings alright." Ric smiled his devilish grin to all the ladies as he stood back up on stage.
"This love has taken its toll on me. She said goodbye too many times before. And her heart is breaking in front of me. I have no choice cause I won t say goodbye anymore." Mr. Corinthos, stood up on his chair by Claudia serenaded to her.
"This love has taken its toll on me. She said goodbye too many times before. And her heart is breaking in front of me. I have no choice cause I won t say goodbye anymore!" 'Darth Lansing' held out the last note, then gave his brother a quick glance.
"This love has taken its toll on me. She said goodbye too many times before. And her heart is breaking in front of me. I have no choice cause I won t say goodbye anymore!" They finished together, and were given a huge round of applause.

"Well aint you just on fire tonight!" Skylar hit her partner's thigh playfully as he sat back down. She handed him her drink and watched the man gulp it down.
"Sonny, where's my money!?" Claudia grasped at him, her hands ready to be filled with the money from their bet. Tiredly, he pulled out a five from his wallet, then enough money to cover from the drinks. Everyone stood up, knowing it was time to go.
Ms. Corneilus propped herself up on Ric, using him to hold herself up, while the married couple were all over each other. Sonny used his free hand and shook Ric's, then walked out with his wife's shoulders under his arm.
"Ready Skye?" Ric asked, his arm around hers. Even though he was hammered, he still could tell those feelings for the much younger woman. Skylar looked at him long and hard before saying anything, what was she feeling?
"Let's blow this joint and get back to the house! Bye tricks!" She yelled to no one in particular as she left with the older man.

Here I am, this is me
There is no ware else on Earth and rather be
Here I am, it`s just me and you
Tonight were make our dreams come true
Mr. Lansing carried the teenager into the house bridal style, her legs having given out and exhausted from all the partying. Skylar wrapped her long arms around his neck, breathing into his chest gently. "We're home." He stated the obviously.
"I'm always home when I'm with you..." Her eyes were cracked, but she sounded so serious.
"Skye...?" She pulled herself out of his arms as he called her name. Without a question, the teenager pulled him into a deep, longing kiss. Their tongues fought at one another, while their feet danced to Ric's bedroom. She cupped his cheek, her thumb stroking his whiskers.
It`s a new World, it`s a new start
It`s a live, it`s a feeling of Young hearts
It`s a new day, it`s a new plan
I`ve be waiting for you, here I am
Ric pulled back from her lustful, pretruding lips. He held her hands. "Skye...We've had too much too drink, we shouldn't---" Her index rested on his mouth, and shushing noises came form her's. Once again, Skylar pulled him into her world. They landed on the bed, each other's bodies amplafying the heat.

"Please don't remind me what I did tonight in the morning." Sonny pleaded with his wife as he slumped down on the couch. She brought him over some water, then sat near his head and lat him lay on her lap. "Someone's hungry..." He pointed out as Claudia's stomach grumbled.
"I'll be okay. You on the other hand won't. I've never seen you think drunk!" Her sexy smile beamed to him.
"You're right...Let's just sleep here tonight..." Claudia's mouth was formed to say something, but soon, she felt Sonny's breathing slow, having passed out.
"Good night Sonny."

Skylar slowly unbuttoned Ric's dress shirt, to captivated by his warm, tender touch. He slipped his hand under her shirt and brought it over her head. "Ric--"
"Yeah Skye?" They said between kisses.
"What happens tonight is real..." He felt a chill go throw the both of them as she said those few words. Was she just drunk as hell, or was she for real?
Here we are, we`ve just begun
And after all this time my time is come
Yeah, here we are, still going strong
Wright here in the place were we belong
After those long moments of teasing one another, they were free of their cloths, their naked bodies rubbing against one another. Ric pierced into Skylar, hopeful to make this night different from every other she's had with anyone else.
Ms. Corneilus wouldn't let his face leave her's. All she wanted in that moment was to be ever so close to him. Her ody moved down as she laid tender kisses on his peks.
Ooh !!
It`s a new World, it`s a new start
It`s a live, it`s a feeling of Young hearts
It`s a new day, it`s a new plan
I`ve be waiting for you, here I am
Their hands held on tight to the other's. Both of the two misunderstood beings could feel the love surge threw the other mentally and physically. "What or who brought us together?" Skylar wondered aloud as Ric kissed her neck and suckled on her freckle.
"I have no clue, but I would do anything to repay that debt..." Her nails began to dig into him, but she made it painless.
Here I am, this is me
There is no ware else on Earth and rather be
Here I am, just me and you
Tonight were make our dreams come true..Ooh !!
It`s a new World, it`s a new start
It`s a live, it`s a feeling of Young hearts
It`s a new day, it`s a new plan
I`ve be waiting for you,
Here I am
They had no clue how much time had past, but their bodies caught on and had already suffered enough activity in the past three or four hours from Jake's and sex. Skylar laid her left arm and head in Ric's chest, taking in all his warmth that he had to offer. "Skye, tell me something. Did you really mean what you said?"
"With all my heart I did. As much as I hate to admit, you're the one man that has gotten to know me, respect me, trust me, and everything else." Her voice had started off strong, but slowly became a whisper as her mind went blank and she fell into a deep slumber.
A/N- This has to be my sloppiest work! I honestly hate how this came out, but I made a deal and planned to stick with it. I'm sorry all, but it's something to get this story rolling. If you are new to reading my stories, please note that this is the worst love scene I've ever written. Don't hate the playa, hate the game. Anyways, please tell me what you thought. Did you think Skylar was extremely drunk, or did she really mean it? Did Ric make the wrong decision? Reviews make me feel better. All rights to song go to Bryan Adams, it's called Here I Am.
