CHAPTER 21 Sam and Luca had little time to spend with each other during that week. Between Sam's last days at the store and Luca's mid-term exams, the two only had dinner together one night. "Can we go to Vinos next week?" asked Sam. "Actually, I was thinking the same thing," replied Luca, "but I do not think we would be by ourselves. Leo and Stam had talked about spending break there as well and I think they have invited a few others. Do you still want to go?" "Yes, I think so," replied Sam. "We can still be together - we could ditch them from time to time and have some time alone. I have missed you these past few weeks and I want to spend some time together before Cristof takes over my life." "I think Leo mentioned that Cristof was coming to Vinos as well, later in the week." "I don't mind, as long as you are there." "Would you like to ask David to join us?" "I don't know. I mean then I'd feel obligated to be with him which would keep us from being together." "Whatever you wish. There might be someone there he could befriend. It might help him get over you." "You know about that?" asked Sam, surprised. "Sam, dear," replied Luca, smiling, "You really do not understand how desirable you are. I can tell when I see David with you that he is smitten." "He is, but he is dealing with it. We have talked about it. I don't know if I like having that kind of effect on anyone." "Well, you can not help who you are." "I love you," said Sam. "I love you," replied Luca. Vinos was a small private island owned by the Kostopoulos family. The island held a magnificent family vacation home complex as well as a vineyard and winery, one of many, operated by the family empire. Sam loved to spend time there and he thought it was one of the most beautiful places he'd seen. He treasured the seclusion of the island and the freedoms it offered. The home was magnificent, with five individual suites, each with it's own balcony swimming pool, and eight additional luxurious bedrooms. There was a movie theater and game room in the lower level. The second level held an enormous great room, two dining rooms and a huge kitchen. There was a huge patio and pool, mostly covered by the third level, but open to the sea, which overlooked a cliff facing north and a tremendous view of the island of Mykonos. The family had a small fleet of boats, ranging from small sport boats to an 80-foot yacht, moored at a dock below the manor next to a private beach. Sam ended up inviting David to come spend a few days. As it turned out, Luca had to fly to Volos overnight one day, so Sam asked David to come and keep him company. He had wanted to go with Luca, but Luca did not think it was a good idea - a point of contention between them. The three of them left Sunday morning and drove to the Thessolonica airport, where Miko was waiting with the jet. They landed at the airport on Mykonos where they switched to a small twin-prop plane. There was an airstrip on Vinos, but the runway could not accommodate the jet. Luca was going to pilot the small plane the short distance from Mykonos to Vinos. He had earned his pilot's license earlier in the fall, but Sam had yet to fly in a plane piloted by his partner. David was in awe throughout the entire trip. Sam was used to the jet set life that Luca and his family led, and smiled as David looked like a little kid in an amusement park. The boys arrived at the house from the airstrip around lunch time. The weather was clear, but cool. The boys made their way up the stairs to the great room, where they were greeted by Leon and Stam, who had flown out two days earlier. Stam was actually getting ready to leave as they were coming in. He was flying the other plane at the airstrip to Athens to pick up two friends of Dion's who were going to spend the week with them. Sam, Luca, and David made their way up to the third floor, where the suites were located across the front and sides of the home and the other bedrooms were across the back. Sam and Luca dropped their bags off in the first suite on the front side, which they always used, and then they led David down the hall to the next door, which led into one of three smaller suites across the center of the house. The door entered into a small foyer, which led to a comfortable sitting room with a couch, several overstuffed chairs, some small tables, a small dinette set, and a desk. Off of the sitting room was a large bedroom with a king size bed, two bureaus, and a walk-in closet. There was a door from the bedroom, which led to a spacious bathroom that bordered the outside front wall of the home. The wall was mostly glass, with French doors leading out onto a small patio, terminating in a 10 foot by 15 foot pool. The far side of the pool was the very edge of the home, which was right up to the edge of a bluff. The bluff rose about 60 feet above the white sand beach leading out to the water of the Aegean Sea, looking across toward Mykonos. The patio ran the length of the suite, with another set of French doors leading into the sitting room, whose front was also mostly glass. The patio made its way around the left side of the pool and out to the edge. "Will this do, David?" asked Luca, totally serious. "I thought you would prefer to room by yourself, so we will put the other guys in the next two suites and Leon and Stam always use the other master suite at the far end." "Oh my god, this is fucking amazing," said David. "Sorry, I've just never seen anything like this. Thank you so much for inviting me." "Sure, David. You are welcome here anytime. Hopefully you can come again and stay longer. It is very comfortable in the warmer weather. You get comfortable and come downstairs when you are ready and we can show the rest of the place. Stam should be back with Daniel and Mykel in a few hours and then we'll decide if we want to stay here or go to Mykonos for the evening. The nightlife there is not too spectacular this time of year, but I know some good restaurants." Sam and Luca left David in his room and returned to their own suite. The Master suite had a larger sitting room, similar to the one in David's suite, with a small bar area. The ceiling was high, with fans and track lighting. The front wall was all glass, top to bottom, with two doors leading out onto the stone patio. Off the left side of the room was a large bedroom with a sitting area and an oversized king bed, as well as bureaus and a large walk-in wardrobe. The bathroom, accessible from either room, was large as well, with a huge multi-headed tiled shower and a glass front looking out on the patio. Outside the shower was a large jacuzzi tub that also faced the glass wall of the patio, with a door leading outside next to it. Their patio had several pieces of comfortable look furniture, a table and chairs. The stone deck surrounded a pool on three sides. The pool was about 15 feet across and about 20 feet long. The far edged of the pool bordered the edge of the house, like David's pool. Sam liked the fact that he could lean on the far edge of the pool and look down over the bluff to the beach below and across the water to the island, watching the boats on the water. He wished it was warm enough to swim now, but the pool was covered for the cooler weather. There was a small fire pit on the left side of the patio with a supply of wood in a bin next to it. Luca walked up behind Sam and wrapped his arms around him as he stood looking out through the glass over the water. "It has been too long since we made love," he said, pulling Sam back against him. "What to you say we kill some time before the others arrive?" "Mmm," said Sam, leaning back against him, "That sounds spectacular."
