Finding their way- Stefanielle

chapter thirteen

Danielle POV-

"Well I am sorry girls but your actions were completely reckless, and I can no longer have you apart of Shondaland. We will write off your characters immediately" Said Krista with an eerie calmness behind that aggressive tone.

My strong-minded girlfriend then wanted to give her a piece of her mind. I could see the Italian blood soaring through her veins, slowly starting to heat up. I gently uncrossed my arms off of my chest and dropped my left arm to slowly caress her right hand. She instinctively returned the action.

"Mi dispiace Krista but I completely disagree with your reasoning - it is unacceptable. This woman right here is the love of my life and my job should never, in a million years get in the way of that"

This whole exchange, no matter how tragic it is regarding our careers, makes me fall even harder for Stefania and I feel as if I am falling in love with her all over again. She is my complimentary colour and I would not change it for the world. It's you, it's me, it's us, and I will always protect you rings through my ears on a daily basis. I've come to realise that, she is in fact, always there to protect me and that is never going to change.

I then contributed to the conversation.

"I am going to have to fully agree with Stefania on this one Krista it is wholly unacceptable and in my opinion unethical"

"Sí Bella it is, I need to go outside for some air"

As our hands were still attached I was dragged quickly behind her. The brunette's breathing started to rapidly increase. She was having a panic attack.

"Hey, hey, Stefania you're having a panic attack it's okay"

I cupped my hands against her warm cheeks with tears slowly starting to trickle down them.

"No eyes forward, no eyes forward, your eyes on need to be on me okay? okay? Deep breaths for me"

Even though I was petrified for my girlfriend I slowed down my breathing and exaggerated it so she could see my chest slowly going up and down, offering her some much needed comfort.

"Remember what you always say to me?"

She tentatively croaked out a "it's you, it's me, it's us" whilst slowing down her breathing once more.

"How are you feeling my silly goose hmm?"

"I am must better now Bella, you're very good at calming me down. Baciami"

"Sí"

I let Stefania lean in for the kiss as I knew she was still overwhelmed with the unsuccessful meeting we just had with Krista.

She licked her lips and slowly dived in to connect our lips and it was the same blissful feeling I have every single time. Yet, this time there is more raw emotion and hurt coming  from the Italian. Her pain. Her heartbreaks. Her passion.

"Dani I think I am going to go for a drive okay? To clear my head because I feel like everything is just going peach-shaped"

All I could do was quickly giggle.

"Stefania I believe you mean pear-shaped, but you'll get there one day sí? Just be careful okay? I love you"

"I love you too you Silly Goose"

Stefania POV-

The next thing she knew Stefania was in her car trying to clear her from the awful conversation she just had with Krista.

There were so many things flying around in her brain but the one thing she was sure of was that Danielle was still the person she wanted to spend the rest of her life with and that was not going to change.

She knew it was too early to think about but she could see them getting married, having children, celebrating Christmas' and birthdays, seeing family and friends. Just growing old with each other.

However, she was yanked out of day dreaming by a loud crash and the screeching of her tyres

"Oh merda"

Uh oh looks like there is some trouble on the horizon. Thoughts?
