Danielle POV-

I scrambled for my phone just as Stefania shut the door to my trailer.

*come on, come on, answer please*

"Yes Barrett! I'm so glad you picked up. I need to talk to you"

"Right now"

"Hey Savre what's up, don't say you called me all the way over here to show me your globe puzzle ball?" Barrett said sarcastically

"No Doss, that ball is extremely important to me but this is something different"

"Hey, come on what's going on?"

"Well you know Stefania? We just practiced our scene for this afternoon, and we kissed. For the scene. Well I think it was for the scene. I couldn't really tell. She said it was amazing, but maybe she was just saying that to make me feel better. As I know I'm a bad kisser because I always used to buck my teeth against Grey. But then again what if she has feelings for me and then I confront her about them but then I'm completely wrong and I've just ruined an amazing friendship. You know?"

At this point I was starting to hyperventilate and I couldn't get any more words out even if I tried.

Barrett quickly rushed over to me and wrapped me in a large hug.

"Dani, Dani, it's going to be okay. However, I think the question is whether you have feelings for her?"

I slowly looked up and made eye contact with her and I genuinely had to think about my answer to this question. Stefania made me feel absolutely magical, like I'm floating in clouds. But I've never had feelings for a girl, so it doesn't make sense. Am I even gay? I don't know at this point. Maybe I'm bi? Maybe I'm still straight? But one thing I do know is that I have a massive crush on Stefania Spampinato.

"Ughhh yes I do. But I don't know if she's feels the same way and I don't think I'm ready to risk this amazing friendship we already have"

"Dani all I'm going to say as that everyone absolutely loves and adores you but you're too worried about everyone hating you that you don't even see it. You can never regret something that makes you happy, not even for a second, so do it"

I didn't reply I just pulled her into a massive hug, letting her know that I fully understand and I was going to tell Stefania my feelings.

Stefania POV-

That afternoon I was waiting for Danielle and I's scene but I couldn't stop thinking about earlier. Surely that was more than a script rehearsal, and us playing Carina and Maya. The connection we have is undeniable, but I have no clue if she even likes me let alone girls at all.

I think I've put together that I'm definitely just a sexual person. I'm going to love who I want to love, even if they may be a man or woman or anyone else in between. I know my father probably isn't going to approve of that decision, however, it's not like it's killing anyone so I don't understand the big palaver.

Yet, I always know my brother will be accepting of whatever I do, and he will always be there for me no matter what.

It was in that moment that I decided I needed to tell Danielle. It also brought back something that I forgot she said to me the other day. It was something along the lines of "you can stay as long as you want, there's no timeline, no expectations, rest and just be you, okay?".

That sentence made me feel at home, something which I have not felt very much since I left Italy.

I started to stroll back over to Danielle's trailer. The door was slightly ajar so I let myself in. I think I just saw Barrett come out of there, I hope everything is okay.

I stepped in and turned around to see Danielle and my nerves were really starting to pick up. Honestly I was having second thoughts on whether I could tell this girl I have massive feelings for her or not.

"Umm hey Stef, I guess I should get straight into it. I have...I have... feelings for you...as like more than a friend. I completely understand if you don't feel the same way. Actually this is so stupid I'm sorry"

A tear started to roll down Danielle's delicate cheek.

My breath was starting to quicken, I didn't know what to do.

"Oh Danielle I-"

*clears my throat*

Sorry about that one guys ;)
