The Bright Side Of The Life - Stefanielle Love Story

Chapter 3

1 week later

POV Danielle
Today is the first day I'm working again since my sister's accident. I took the week off to just be there for her.
Thankfully she's awake and her recovery seems to be good.

But I feel so bad because I haven't talked to Stefania since she drove me home last week. I'll meet her later at work today and I'm so nervous about it. I haven't even texted her.

I'm sitting in hair and make-up as Barrett walks towards me. She's been here a while because she already shot some scenes.
"Are you okay? How's Stephanie so far?" she asks me.
"I'm good and Stephanie is getting better every day" I respond.
We have a bit of small talk and she tells me about her date she went on last weekend. It's a guy named Brett and she's really excited about him. They went on their 3rd date I think.
I'm happy for her because most of the time her relationships didn't work out that good so it's nice to see her this happy. But yeah, let's see how this works out.

"Do you have a scene with Stefania today?"
"Yes, I do. The bar scene, you know?"
"Oh, right. It was so nice of her to drive you to the hospital."
"Yeah, I know"

I haven't even told Barrett that I stayed the night over at her house. But she doesn't have to know everything, I guess.

POV Stefania
I walk towards the set to film the bar scene with Danielle.
I'm so nervous but I can't define if it's the good or the bad nervous. She hasn't reached out to me since I dropped her at her house and I don't know - maybe I should have texted her.

She stands there with a few people from the set. She's wearing a black t-shirt, a black jacket with some white stripes and light blue jeans. She looks so pretty. How can she look that good? In everything? She could probably wear a sweatshirt and sweatpants and she would still look attractive. Wait- did I just say attractive-
I am confused by my own thoughts.

"Oh my, hi," she says before I can even say hello. "Stefania, I am so sorry I didn't give you a ring or anything like that I am so sorry I was just so done with my nerves and I don't know I was dumb -"
"Bella, take it easy. It's okay, I could have texted you too and felt bad for not doing it so I guess it's mutual. But how's your sister?"

She looks quite relieved when I tell her that. Maybe she was just as concerned about the situation as I was. Stefania- get it together. Why would she think about me? She didn't. Stop thinking about it.

"Oh, thanks. Stephanie is good she's awake and the doctor said that she can go out of the hospital tomorrow in case her vitals stay as good as they were the last days."
"That's nice, I'm so happy to hear that. And how are you so far? I know that it must have been quite a shock."
"I'm good, thanks. And thank you so much for taking me to the hospital the other day. And that you let me stay at your house. I really - I don't know- I just-"
"Oh, I'm glad I could help," I say.
"You definitely did. But, okay, since I really already messed up my first impression, how about you come over to my house tonight at like 7 p.m. and I can cook something up for you. Oh, well,  I'm very bad at cooking though. Anyway -"

She gets interrupted by Andy Wolk, the director of this episode." Hurry up, girls! Danielle, I need you to sit at the bar and just play around a little with your glass. Stefania, after I say cut, you're going to go to Danielle and sit down on the chair next to her. Then just roll your lines. Alright?"

I try to give Danielle a soft smile due to the fact I didn't get the chance to say yes to her offer. I mean, of course, I'll come over to her. I actually don't want to admit it, but I had to think about her so often in the past week. I don't know why I just couldn't stop thinking about her. It sounds so weird. I've never had this about a certain person in my life.
