Reno Gabrini: A Family Affair (26 page)
“You okay?” Reno asked Trina, as he looked over at
her and her smoking gun.
Trina nodded.
“I’m okay,” she said.
She was
shaken, but still alive.
Reno looked in the backseat.
He looked at their young children.
Sophie, to his amazement, was still
asleep.
Dom, however, being Dom, was laughing.
“
Got
damn,
Dad!” he shouted.
“You should have seen
Mommy.
Mommy got him good!”
Reno could only shake his head.
He agreed with his son, but he would never,
not in a million years, tell him so.
In the back of the
PaLargio, at the VIP entrance, Jimmy looked like a new man.
After buckling his baby in her car seat, and
sitting Val on the passenger seat, he ran around to the driver side and gave
his mother a hug again.
Sal and Gemma,
and Sal’s brother Tommy Gabrini, and Val’s father Buddy Wellstone, all took
turns saying their goodbyes.
For what
seemed like the fifth time.
Before the
shooting, going to New Hampshire seemed onerous, more like a punishment to
Jimmy and Val.
Now, two months later,
they both were relieved to start over.
The only person
who didn’t seem relieved, and remained uptight, was Reno.
He stood back in his double-breasted suit, as
Jimmy hugged his family again.
Then
Jimmy, doing all he could to fight back tears, went to where Reno was standing.
He extended his hand.
“I’ll be seeing you around, Pop,” he said.
Reno moved to
shake his hand.
This would be the first
time Jimmy lived this far away from him since they discovered each other, and
he was fighting back tears too.
Reno
pulled him in his arms instead.
Trina shed tears
as she watched father and son embrace.
She was going to miss Jimmy something fierce, they were very close, but
she knew Reno was going to miss him on a different level.
He felt as if a piece of his heart was
leaving.
“Behave
yourself,” Reno said as they embraced.
“I will,” Jimmy
responded, his eyes watery.
“Anybody give
you trouble, you contact me,” Reno said.
Reno pulled back from their embrace to make himself clear.
“You hear me?”
Jimmy nodded his
head, as tears came.
“I don’t want to
find out that you’ve been involved in anything other than running my hotels,”
Reno said, wiping his son’s tears away.
“Because this is a new day for you, Jimmy.
And you’ve got to produce.”
“I will, Pop.”
“You’re my
senior VP now,” Reno said.
“You have to
stay above the fray.”
“I will,” Jimmy
started saying.
But then he looked at
his father.
Stunned.
“I’m your what?”
Trina
smiled.
She knew what Reno was telling
him.
“You’re my
senior vice president, Jimmy,” Reno said.
“The memo goes out this afternoon.
You’re third in charge, behind me and your mother.
You’re the it shit now.”
Jimmy smiled a
smile that warmed Reno’s heart.
“
Oh, Pop
,” he said and threw himself into
Reno’s arms.
“I’ll make you so
proud!
I won’t let you down!”
“You’d better
not!”
“I won’t,” Jimmy
said happily, as they stopped embracing.
“Thanks.”
Reno
smiled.
“You’re welcome, son.
Now get out of my face.
Take care of your wife, and my
grandbaby.
I’m depending on you, Jimmy.”
Jimmy felt
pleased.
He nodded his head.
“Thanks, Daddy,” he said.
“It’s exactly what I need.”
Reno patted
Jimmy on the back.
He understood exactly
what he was saying.
“Alright, boy,”
Trina said, “you guys need to get on the road.”
“Bye everybody!”
Jimmy said again and hurried behind the wheel.
“Guess what Daddy did?” he said to Val as they waved and drove away.
Tommy heard
Jimmy’s question, and turned to Reno.
“What did
Daddy
do?” he asked
with a grin, as all eyes fell on Reno.
Reno looked at
all of them.
“What are you looking at me
for?
Can’t I have a private conversation
with my son?”
“No,” Tommy
said. “What did you do?”
“I gave him a
promotion.”
Sal smiled.
“It’s about time!” he said.
“You’re one to
talk,” Reno said.
“How many promotions
have you given your boy Rudy?
What’s his
position again in the Gabrini Corporation?”
Everybody looked
at Sal.
“All things in time,” Sal said,
and they all laughed.
Reno looked at
his watch, and then hurried to Trina, grabbing her by the hand.
Trina didn’t hesitate.
She took his hand and hurried with him back
inside the PaLargio.
“What’s the rush
all of a sudden?” Tommy asked.
“Dominic and
Sophia will be home in half an hour,” Buddy said.
“I’m going to pick them up.
They were running out of time.”
But Tommy didn’t
get it.
“Time for what?” he asked.
Sal looked at
him amazed.
“Damn, brother,” he said,
“you have really changed!”
When Tommy
realized what they were talking about, he grinned.
“I’ll be back,” Tommy proclaimed. “I’m just a
little rusty, that’s all.
But I’ll be
back!”
But upstairs, in the penthouse, Reno and Trina
weren’t rusty at all.
They were naked,
on their bed, and hungry.
Reno was
already between Trina’s legs, eating the shit out of her, and Trina was lifting
her legs higher onto his back, to give him greater access.
It was a wonderful feeling for both of
them.
Their children were happy, their
marriage was solid, and their enemies, at least for now, were dealt with.
And when Reno moved up, and put his penis deep
inside of her, those feelings of relief, of completion, heightened.
Reno leaned down, and pulled her into his
arms, and fucked her long and lovingly.
Trina wrapped her arms around his naked body too,
and rested her feet on his ass, as he gyrated her, not to cum quickly, but to
enjoy their togetherness.
They weren’t
ready to cum.
Reno moved along her
ridges, hitting her spot repeatedly, as she relaxed to his mastery touch.
They made love for the longest time.
And when they came, they screamed it out.
Not because they had to: but because they
could.
They felt free.
They felt happy.
They felt as if they . . .
Knocks were suddenly heard on their bedroom door.
They both stopped, in shock.
“Who is it?” Reno yelled.
“Hold it down in there,” Dommi yelled back.
“We can hardly hear the television!”
Trina, horrified, looked at the clock on the
nightstand.
“It’s that late?” she
whispered to Reno.
“Where have we been?”
Then Reno smiled.
It was the perfect opening.
“In
love,” he said to his wife.
“We’ve been
in love.”
Trina smiled too.
And even as Dommi continued to pound on the door before Buddy came and
ordered him to get his nosy ass away from there, they kissed, and continued to
hold onto each other.
They weren’t kids
anymore, but they were still in love.
