She takes her helmet off and stays seated on her bike. Logan looks through the kitchen window and knows something's wrong. He steps outside and spreads his arms out wide. She gets off her bike and steps into his arms, resting her head against his chest. He presses a kiss on her hair and holds her tight. She calms down in his arms and breathes out slowly.

She feels her phone vibrate in her pocket and pulls it out. There are missed calls and messages from Dino, Violetta, and Thomas. She turns her phone off and slides it back into her pocket. Logan looks into her eyes and asks: "Talk about it or wine with cheese cookies and come up with a plan for tonight?"

She looks into his grey eyes and says: "The last idea. I feel like coming up with a naughty plan. And I could definitely use wine and cheese cookies."

"Okay, Bonnie. Go upstairs. I'll be right there."

Scorpia walks in and puts her helmet, gloves and jacket in the closet in the kitchen. She runs upstairs and straight up to Leo's crib. Leo's sleeping deeply and she strokes his cheek gently.

She sits down on the couch and takes her boots off. She makes herself comfortable and sees Logan come up with two glasses of wine and a bowl. She thanks him with a kiss and swallows down a gulp of wine.

"Tell me Bonnie. How are we going to tease Flavio and Ciro?"

Scorpia's eyes start to shine and she says: "I'm going to dress up as sexy as I can and as soon as I see Flavio, I'll sit down on his lap. I'll tell him he awakened something in me. And you'll catch us of course. I'm pretty sure that raising your voice will be enough to scare Flavio. And Ciro on top of it."

Logan chuckles and asks: "How sexy Bonnie?"

"Stiletto boots, leather hot-pants, and black leather top sexy?"

"Oh hell, Bonnie. You better stay upstairs until they are here. Because just the thought makes me want to drag you straight to bed."

She suddenly remembers Dino's coming over tonight. "Shit. Dino."

Logan shoots her a questioning look.

She says: "Just a short update, okay? I've told Thomas and Violetta what they get to see at the premiere. It was very emotional. And then Violetta asked me bout Flavio. I ran outside and bumped into Dino. He distracted me by playing table-tennis with me and showing me all the new stuff at the children's home.

When he started to fiddle with the baseball gear, my mind drifted to my past. It touched me and I didn't want him to see it. So I ran inside to say goodbye to Violetta and found her in Thomas' arms."

She rubs her face and sighs. "Dino is coming over tonight to watch us tease Flavio and Ciro."

Logan pulls her into his arms and says: "Such a wonderful mess, Bonnie. But I'm really glad you're honest with me about it. And it explains why you switched your phone off."

She looks at him all sad and asks: "But what am I going to tell Dino?"

"Nothing, Bonnie. We focus on having fun with Ciro and Flavio and after that I'm dragging you upstairs. Freya is working tonight and I'll ask Marco to stay a little longer."

Logan kisses her softly and asks: "What would you like to do now, Bonnie?"

She says: "Drink wine, eat cheese cookies, watch cartoons and hug my two favorite men."

Logan gets up, grabs a DVD from the TV-stand and says: "Talking about cartoons..." He hands her the DVD and Scorpia screams like a schoolgirl.

Logan laughs and she says: "Put it on! Right now! I haven't seen my first love in such a long time!"

Logan puts the Bleach DVD in the player and turns the TV on. He hands Scorpia her wine and puts the bowl of cheese cookies on the couch next to her. Logan sees it the second Ichigo appears on the screen. This is what she must have looked like as a girl. She smiles shyly at the TV, a blush appearing on her cheeks. He puts his hand on her wrist and feels her rapid heart beat.

He takes a sip of his wine as he studies Scorpia's face.

He hears Leo babble and gets up. He lifts Leo from his crib and says: "Mommy's here too. Let's go see her."

He walks back into the living room and Leo stretches his arms out to her, yelling 'mommy' as soon as he sees her.

Scorpia turns her face to her two big loves and stretches her arms out towards Leo. Logan hands Leo to her and she holds the little boy to her chest. "Hello my beautiful little pirate. I've missed you today."

Leo looks up at her and smiles. Scorpia pets his soft hair and holds him close with a hand on his bum.

Logan turns the TV and DVD-player off and says: "Shall I make a bottle for our little cub?"

Scorpia lifts Leo up and sniffs him. "Um yeah, I'll have a look at the surprise Leo made for me."

Logan chuckles and runs downstairs.

Scorpia takes Leo into the bedroom and changes him on the bed.

"You sure stink mister man."

She tickles his tummy and he giggles. She dresses him again and picks him up. The diaper disappears in the diaper bucket and she sits down on the couch again, with Leo on her lap, facing the stairs to wait for Logan.

Logan carries a tray up the stairs and Leo yells 'daddy' right away. Logan looks up with a smile on his face and says: "Yeah, yeah, daddy's coming."

He puts the tray down on the table and hands Scorpia the bottle. Leo wraps his little hands around it and pulls it towards his mouth. Scorpia chuckles and leans back, making it easier for him to drink.

Logan says: "I've brought some fruit, cheese, sausage and two roast beef sandwiches. I figured we could eat together. Grazia didn't mind staying a little longer and Marco is working the rest of the night with Freya."

Scorpia smiles and thanks him.

They watch Leo drink his milk until he falls asleep. Logan takes him from Scorpia and carries him to bed.

He walks back out wearing a different T-shirt and stands in front of Scorpia. She reads the text on his blue shirt and smiles. The white letters on the front read: 'Never underestimate the power of a BONNIE.'

He hands her a white shirt and she folds it open. There are big, blue letters on the font, who spell 'BONNIE'. She smiles and takes her shirt off to put the new one on.

She gets up and grins at Logan. "I'm so wearing this one tonight."

The shirt is tight and leaves a strip of skin bare above her pants.

Logan swallows and says: "I should have just bought an XL for you."

She chuckles and says: "Let's eat, handsome Scot. I'll let you pick out the rest of my outfit later."

"Really?"

Scorpia nods and eats a grape. She slides down the couch to sit on the floor in front of it and Logan sinks down next to her. He eats a piece of cheese and sips his wine. They eat in silence and enjoy each other's company.

Scorpia pats her stomach and says: "That was very yummy Logan. And relaxing."

She gets her phone out of her pocket, turns it on and puts it on the table without looking at it. She grabs Logan's hand and whispers: "Come with me. You still need to help me pick out an outfit."

Logan walks over to the closet and scans her clothes. He finds the leather hot-pants and hands them to her. He crouches down and pulls her stiletto boots from the closet. He whispers: "I'm going to go now, before you change into that. Or I will lose it."

Scorpia puts the hot-pants and boots on and walks into the bathroom. She takes her time with her make-up and goes for her most sensual perfume. She chuckles as she thinks about Flavio's face.

She sits down on top of the stairs and tries not to think about Dino, Thomas and Violetta. She forces herself to think about the moment Logan's done with her act and will drag her upstairs.

She channels her focus like she's about to fight and then hears her phone beep. She looks at the screen and reads Logan's message quickly.

Bonnie
They're here.
They are seated at a table on the left.
I'm in the kitchen.
Have fun.

Scorpia gets up and descends the stairs. She pushes the door open and catches Freya serving them a whisky. She winks at Scorpia when they pass each other to let her know her and Marco know at least something about it.

Scorpia sees Dino seated at the long table and makes eye contact with him for a second. He pretends to be on the phone but his grin shows he can't wait to see what Scorpia will do.

Scorpia sways her hips as she walks up to Flavio, her gaze locked on him. Ciro stares at her and uncomfortably pulls at the collar of his button-up. Scorpia reached the bench where Flavio is seated and sits down on his lap in one swift move. She looks at him with hungry eyes and runs her fingers through his hair.

She surprised him so much that he blushes and she hoarsely says: "Flavio... You've awakened something in me this afternoon..." She looks deep into his eyes and strokes his jaw. She bites her bottom lip and pushes her upper body against him. She sees fear and uncertainty in his eyes, mixed with a tiny bit of excitement. She pretends she's about to kiss him and that's when she hears Logan.

"What the hell, Bonnie?" She hears Ciro gasp and Flavio tries to push her off his lap. Logan comes rushing up to them with his hands balled into fists and his eyes shooting daggers.

Flavio holds his hands up and stammers. Scorpia looks at the floor to hide her smile that's breaking through. Logan pulls her behind him and looks Flavio straight in the eye.

"Bastardo! You fucking Italians are all the same! We might not be married, but she's mine goddammit! Get up and leave! Now! You too Ciro! Before I knock you both out!"

Flavio and Ciro get up as fast as they can and try to explain. But Logan is fuming and they are shaking from fear. Ciro grabs Flavio's hand and they run out in a panic.

Dino is the first one to break the silence. He bangs his hands on the table, while his laughter bounces off the walls in the cafe. Tears roll down his cheeks and he says, hiccuping from laughing so much: "Ti amo, sorellina. That was amazing."

Scorpia chuckles and winks at him. She feels Logan's hands slide down her body and he strokes the strip of bare skin of her belly. He suddenly picks her up, throws her over his shoulder and walks through the door to the stairs. He burst out in laughter as soon as the door closes, tears streaming down his face. Scorpia holds onto him while she laughs without sound.

It takes them a while to catch their breaths and Logan looks into her amused eyes. "My God, Bonnie. They were terrified."

Scorpia chuckles and says: "I told you. Flavio is scared of you. And so is Ciro. At least where it comes to protecting me. They know what you're capable of."

"They won't be sleeping tonight." They laugh a little more, but the mood changes soon.

Logan grabs her ass and lowers his head to kiss her slowly. Scorpia moans and holds onto his shoulders for support. His kiss is so forceful and passionate at the same time, that she loses all feeling in her legs.

His hands slide under her shirt to unhook her bra. Scorpia pulls it from her sleeve and Logan smirks. "Still one of my favorite magic tricks, Bonnie."

She laughs and throws her bra on the floor. His hands quickly cup her breasts and his thumbs rub her nipples. She moans and slides her hands down his back.

Logan opens the buttons on her hot-pants and pulls it down. He helps her to step out of it and takes his time to admire her. "Oh hell, Bonnie."

She looks at him, her eyes bursting with golden specks as she takes a slow spin. Logan pulls his shirt over his head and kicks his sneakers off. His hands shake as he takes his jeans and boxers off in one go.

Scorpia bites her lip and takes her panties off slowly. Logan growls and picks her up. She wraps her legs around his waist and gasps when she feels his excitement. He kisses her wildly and pushes her with her back against the wall. He rests one hand on the wall next to her head and slides inside of her all the way. "Oh Bonnie."

Scorpia pushes her stiletto heels against his butt cheeks and he loses his last bit of self control.

They come together wild and rough. Scorpia clings to him and bites his shoulder. Logan groans and kisses her neck, burying himself deep inside of her. They both reach their climax, faster than ever before and Logan sinks onto the floor with Scorpia still in his arms.

They slowly come down to earth and Scorpia whispers: "Someone could have walked in on us Logan."

Logan chuckles and says: "I don't think so. Everyone on the other side of that door knew what we were about to do Bonnie. And even if they didn't know, no one could have stopped me."

She laughs and says: "I'll go grab something to freshen up with. I'll be right back."

Logan watches her walk up the stairs in nothing but her new shirt and stiletto boots. He moans and tries to ignore the effect that view has on him.

She comes back down with a towel and a wet washcloth. She washes the proof of their sex off of herself and tries to do the same for him.

"Hell Bonnie. No."

She looks into his eyes and can't miss the lust in those familiar darkened, grey eyes. He takes the washcloth from her and cleans himself up. He rolls it into the towel and gets up slowly.

He stares at her and puts his boxers on in a trance. She bends over to pick her panties up from the floor and he moans. She looks at him over her shoulder and it's clear what she is doing to him yet again.

He hoarsely says: "You should have used cold water, Bonnie."

She walks over to him and slides her hands over his ass and squeezes. "Oh yeah? You think that would have helped?"

He bites his lip and shakes his head. "Bonnie, that shirt and those boots... Hell..."

She kisses him deep and slow and runs her fingers through his hair. He begs her to stop and she takes a step back. She puts her panties and hotpants back on, without looking at him. He quickly puts his jeans, shirt and shoes back on.

Her eyes land on the bra in the corner, but she decides to leave it off. Especially now that Logan's trying to focus on himself to be able to work again and hasn't noticed she didn't put it back on.

Logan leans against the wall and closes his eyes.

Scorpia looks at him with love in her eyes and asks: "Handsome Scot, do I have to go upstairs and stay away from you?"

Logan looks at her and shakes his head. "No Bonnie. But I think you should go and grab the baby monitor. To give me second to get back into work mode."

She softly says: "Maybe you should turn around then."

He looks confused and she nods at the stairs.

"Oh hell yes."He turns around and rests his forehead against the wall.

Scorpia grabs the rolled up towel and quickly goes upstairs.

He breathes out slowly, when he doesn't hear her footsteps on the stairs anymore. He chuckles to himself and walks back into the cafe again.

His eyes meet Dino's who has moved to a barstool and his eyes show that he knows exactly what they've been up to. Logan walks behind the bar and pours himself a whisky.

Marco picks up a tray full of drinks from the bar and says in passing: "That was a fun show Logan." He laughs as he walks off to serve drinks.

Freya comes up to the bar with a tray full of empty glasses and beams. "I totally get why Scorpia was so popular in Frank's bar. Wow. That woman is capable of melting the entire North Pole."

Logan laughs and raises his glass to her. He takes a big gulp and closes his eyes for a second.

Scorpia takes her boots and hot-pants off as soon as she's upstairs. She pulls old sweatpants from the closet and puts them on. She sticks her feet into some sneakers and walks over to the crib to look at Leo. He's looking like a little angel and the last bit of lust leaves her body as she looks at the sweet little boy. She whispers: "Ti amo. Sweet little pirate of mine."

She grabs the baby monitor and her phone and goes downstairs. She pushes the door to the cafe open en finds a relaxed Logan behind the bar. Her breath hitches when she sees Dino, but she relaxes as soon her eyes meet Logan's. She sits down next to Dino and puts her phone on the bar with the baby monitor next to it.

Logan pours her a glass of Amarone. She smiles at him and takes a sip. She closes her eyes and enjoys the rich flavor.

When she opens her eyes again, she catches Logan staring at her with a small smile on his lips. She raises her glass at him, her eyes shining with desire again.

Dino says in a soft tone: "Be careful now. The cafe might go up in flames."

Scorpia chuckles and takes another sip of her wine. She looks at Dino and he asks: "What's next? Are you going to let them spend the night sleepless?"

Scorpia thinks about it as she drinks more of her wine. "Hmm. Maybe. Have you heard from Ciro yet?"

Dino is about to say no when his phone rings.

He grins and answers it. "Hey brother." (...) "Well, I didn't catch all of it. Why?" (...) "Scor? Crazy about Flavio? That can't be true." (...) "Yeah, Logan was furious. I think you got lucky tonight." (...) "How am I supposed to know?" (...) "What? It was your idea? Oh Ciro, so stupid."

Dino winks at Scorpia and tries his hardest to keep sounding serious. "But Ciro? How does Flavio feel about Scorpia? I mean, is he into her?"

Dino covers his phone and chuckles while he shakes his head.

"Brother, I have no clue how to fix this. No, I don't think Logan and Scorpia talked it out. I even think Scorpia's planning on sleeping somewhere else tonight. If you really fucked this up fratello... No one will be able to save you."(...) "Yeah bro. Good luck. Ciao."

Dino ends the call and immediately bursts out in laughter. "Mio Dio, sorellina. Ciro is panicking. And Flavio doubts everything. They are terrified of Logan and afraid they've lost you."
