Everyone deserves to be loved Carlo, you especially.

[carlo--torrioni]

After all the shit I've done? I doubt it.

[missnicolefox]

"Do you want one? You could put it up in your office, showing off your gorgeous fiancée." She chuckled, letting go of his hand. "Oh, don’t pretend. You love biting." Nicole teased him. "I don’t think Titanic would would be such a huge success with Jack dying in the cold water. It didn’t make any sense though.

[carlo--torrioni]

"As much as I love one, I hold meetings with the guys in here regularly. I think they would be distracted from talking work if there was a naked portrait of you above the desk." He grinned, tilting his face up and pecking her lips. "And then I would have to kill said men for gawping at my fiancée."

[missnicolefox]

"She really did. It was a beautiful one. Jack was very talented… And from what I saw, not only in drawing." Nicole smiled before gently placing kisses on his fingertips, just like Rose did in the movie. "I really don’t think that singer would want to hang me naked on her wall." She playfully bit his finger. "I’m your French girl, Carlo… Well, Italian. You know what I mean." A chuckle escaped her lips.

[carlo--torrioni]

"Who wouldn't want a picture of you naked on their wall?" He pulled his finger away as she bit it, making a feigned hurt face. "Exactly. Except that would make me Jack, and that would make me dead because the so-called love of my life couldn't budge over on a door."

[jen-brinton]

It’s not like I want to. You’re engaged. You cheated on her with me. I’ve done things…I should just go.

[carlo--torrioni]

Exactly. Hell, I don't even know why Nicole's marrying me.

[jen-brinton]

I don’t lie to people and I want to up front with you. Not that you care. Not that it matters.

[carlo--torrioni]

I'm not exactly the nicest guy in this place, I just don't get how you could get a crush on me of all people.

[missnicolefox]

Nicole smiled and slowly brushed her fingertips against his cheek, down on his jaw. “It’s just one painting anyway. I want to try things before I get too old to do them. And this is probably something I couldn’t do as a 80 years old woman.”

[carlo--torrioni]

"Well, Rose did get her sketch done when she was young in Titanic." He tilted his head to one side with a grin. "He isn't painting you like one of his French girls is he?"

[missnicolefox]

Her excitement went down a little bit. “It’s not just up to me. I mean it is, but… What’s wrong, Carlo?” 

[carlo--torrioni]

"If it's what you want to do, then that's ok." He smiled, pulling her closer to him and onto his lap. "I love you, and if you want to model for this guy, then I support you."

[missnicolefox]

She looked down at his hand, knowing that what she said would cause it. Nicole took one of his hand between hers and smiled. “Of course. It’s for some singer and I’ll be fully clothed. Besides, it’s not set in stone yet. I wanted to talk to you first before saying something final.”

[carlo--torrioni]

"Hmm." Carlo frowned, turning his hand over in hers. He knew he couldn't be possessive of Nicole forever. "I'm ok with it. It's up to you, anyway."

[jen-brinton]

Did you have to know Nicole in and out to like her? You’re making me feel like an idiot right now.

[carlo--torrioni]

I just...why would you tell me this?

[carlo--torrioni]

Nicole walked into his office with a cup of hot coffee. "Hi, are you busy? I brought coffee." She smiled at him, stopping next to the desk.

He looked up at her with a smile, closing the files he’d just been looking at. They weren’t anything she needed to concern herself with. “Not at all.” He took the cup from her, holding it between his hands and relaxing as the warmth surged through his palms. “What’s up?”

[missnicolefox]

Nicole noticed him closing the files, but with other things on her mind, she didn’t think about it that much. “Good… Well, I have an interesting talk with one of the residents. His name’s Julian Mulhern, the artist.” The girl leaned against the edge of the desk next to him, taking his hand intp hers. “The things is… He want’s me to be his model for the next piece he’s doing.” She said while playing with his finger.

[carlo--torrioni]

"His model?" He raised an eyebrow, attempting nonchalance, but his hands started curling into fists. "I'm hoping you would be a clothed model?"

[carlo--torrioni]

[jen-brinton]

You’re also not one to talk about yourself.

[carlo--torrioni]

Yet you've ended up with a crush on me?

[jen-brinton]

This surprises you?

[carlo--torrioni]

Yeah, kinda. I mean, you barely know anything about me.

[drew-bosler-blog]

Well, to be honest, she doesn’t belong to you yet. 

But I’m no threat to you, and you know it. So calm down before you give yourself an aneurysm or something.

[carlo--torrioni]

Don't try and piss me off, Bosler.

[jen-brinton]

That’s not something that you figure out Carlo. It kind of happens. And it was before we enjoyed our little rendez vous in the supply closet.

[carlo--torrioni]

Oh.

[carlo--torrioni]

Being begged for more time to pay back a loan.

[drew-bosler-blog]

Maybe I would have done - but you can’t blame me because she is extremely beautiful.

[carlo--torrioni]

And she's mine.

[carlo--torrioni]

I think I've had a little too much mulled wine.

[missnicolefox]

Nicole quickly pulled him back, sliding her hand into his. The other one cupped his face as the girl kissed him. “I love you….” She whipered between his lips after pulling back a little. “I’ll figure this out.”

[carlo--torrioni]

"I love you too." He murmured, resting his forehead briefly against hers. He loved Nicole more than anything, it was just her schedule that he hated.
