#It's like I can afford the new rent increase so I'm grateful for that. I just REALLY don't feel it's worth it for this place.

[iero]

Once again thinking about how my rent is gonna increase in the next month of a half (the beginning of next year approximately) and the new rent cost is simply not worth it for my place and thinking about how the new rent cost is how much it would cost for a decent one bedroom in one of the two major cities of PA where there's more job opportunities and just things to DO in general, but I'm too scared of change to actually go through with it...

I know I just requested the sugar daddy!Bruno drawing but holly fucking hell that drawing is so good and I'm already thirsting for something about him, please, anything hcs or fic I'll eat it all up

You want it, you got it, my friend. I have to add a little story for him- hope you don’t mind!

I end up writing this quite long. lol.

Warning: NOT SFW/ age gap/ sugar daddy-baby relationship / Angst (a little) /Mention of abusive family

▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▀

Sugar daddy!Bruno Buccellati

▀ In Bruno’s elder years, he still focuses on his work and being capo that leading his teammates forward. 

▀ Bruno had adopted one girl from the abusive family (which Passione always been waiting to took them down), renamed her and give her his last name- then send her to school, taking care of her like his own daughter. Until she reached the age of 20, she attends the finest university Bruno could afford.

▀ You, a normal university student that tried to chase your dreams, has approached Bruno’s adoptive daughter, Caterina, helping her with the assignment. While the others tried to avoid Caterina as possible, you give her the purest intention of approaching.

▀ When Caterina finally comfortable around you- you two became a best friend, helping each other through everything. Then one day, Caterina invites you to have dinner at her house, you politely accept, she’s now your best friends after all.

▀ Luxury, enormous, and extremely majestic could describe Caterina’s ‘house’. Your eyes went wide from the front door to the inside; it just so huge- so beautiful, everything inside just seems so unaffordable.

▀ When Caterina brought you to the diner room. Sat there Bruno, he wanders his gaze up to meet two of you, his eyelashes, his face, his charisma are all angelic. This is Caterina’s father? He is absolutely breathtaking; not to mention that he looks younger than his age.

▀ You introduced yourself shyly. He smiled and welcomed you, that voice of his is so beautiful, so tender. You felt like your heartbeat went crazier and crazier every second.

▀ Caterina elbowed you with a playful grin. “You have a crush on my dad?” said jokingly, Caterina. But what you feel right now is not a joke at all. She dragged you to sat beside her, the opposite side of Bruno. Then, the dinner has brought in by maids.

▀ It went by quietly, with a little small conversation between you and Caterina. Soon, the girl excuses herself and left you alone with Bruno. When his adoptive daughter has gone to mind her own business, Bruno asked you a question about life, about Caterina, about you.

▀ Surprisingly, you warmed up to him with his gentleness so easily. You talked to him a lot of things that had happened to your life, you were really glad that Caterina became friend with you, or else no one would actually care that you stay here. 

▀ You slipped out of your mouth that you tried to get away from your home, which you don’t feel safe at all. You rent an apartment that you could poorly afford, even if it’s not good that much, but at least you can escape from the daily emotional torment.

▀ Bruno stopped his movements right when those words came out of your mouth. Then Caterina came back, asking you to come to her room, you agree, but fully notice Bruno’s concern stare.

▀ The very next day, Bruno came to the door of your apartment. You were a little surprised -- but once he offers you a brand new penthouse that you could live in, your head almost went blank, shocked. You tried to reject him, but his eyes showing that he genuinely wants to help you since your his daughter’s friend. That left you no words.

▀ Once he transfers said real estate. You were so grateful that you almost cry. You feel guilty that you get it for free, so you have to talk to Bruno about this- you think you need to pay him back somehow. Bruno understands your feeling about this, so he makes you become his assistance, provides paperwork for him.

▀ He pays things you need more often, not just normal daily basis needs, the tuition, clothing, and everything you want in general. Or sometimes, he volunteered to take you to the university with his limo. You were a little awkward about this- but somehow, you also like this.

▀ The more and more you stick around him- you’re head over heels. You undeniably falling in love with your friend’s father. Much to your surprise, he admitted that he also falls for you since the first day you two have encounter.

▀ Bruno is gentle with his touch, usually, he’s very serious about works and stuff- you can’t deny that he’s also serious with sex too. But he’s so gentle, letting you adjust yourself as long as you want. He’s the one that pleasing you, your feelings come first. Always.

▀ He whispered sweet nothings while thrusting into you, he increases his speed each time he pounds. Kissing you fondlingly- as if he afraid that you’ll disappear from his grasp.

▀ He loves you so much- he said. But right now, he couldn’t have you officially. But he promises that someday, he will.

▀ 11/10!!!
