The Bright Side Of The Life - Stefanielle Love Story

Chapter 21

POV Stefania
"Baby, wake up" I hear a quiet voice. I cover my face with my hands so that the sun rays don't have the chance to blend me this early. I then pull the blanket over my head and attempt to go back to sleep. I am so tired.
"Baby," the beautiful voice says again. And it forces me to smile. I just love being called pet names.
"Stefania" she then says after I don't respond.
"Non voglio ancora alzarmi. Lasciami dormire e coccolami" I groan with possibly the sleepiest voice ever. (I don't want to get up yet. Let me sleep and just cuddle me)

Danielle grabs my hip in order to turn me around so I am forced to face her. Just now I realize my bare body. I need a second to remember why I am not wearing any clothes but I can't do anything but smile at the thought of it.
I open my eyes. The disappointment is written on my face when I gather that Danielle is fully clothed lying next to me.
"What's wrong?" she asks me as she strokes my hair behind my ear.
"You're wearing clothes"
She chuckles a bit and starts to draw small patterns on my bare abdomen. "Yeah, I do"
"Why?" I say as I put on a pout.
"Because Jeff was almost crashing the door"
"No, she wouldn't do that."
"But she did. I guess we were too busy to take care of her yesterday," she says, grinning like an idiot. I feel my face blushing so I put the blanket over my face once more.
"It's okay, she's fed now and we went on a walk" she then continues as she forces me to take the blanket away.
"Thank you" I just say
"You should get up, Stefania"
"Why?"
"We have to be at work in about an hour"
"What?" I say shocked as I sit up in the bed abruptly.
"Yeah, it's 7"
"Why didn't you wake me up? You know I need longer than there's time left now."
"But- You looked so cute when you were asleep"
"I hate you"
"No, you don't"
"No, I don't" I let out a sigh.
"Now go shower, I'll make some breakfast"

I slowly stand up, not even bothered to pull a blanket over my body. I can feel Danielle's eyes on me the whole time. "Wanna join me?" I eventually ask her as she still just sits there in my bed, not making a move.
She clears her throat before answering "We don't have time for that"
"Sure?" I ask a bit sadly.
"I'm sorry"
"It's okay, I get it that you're still exhausted from last night"
Danielle's jaw drops which make me laugh hard. I fastly make my way back to her to give her a short kiss before heading to my bedroom to take a shower.

POV Danielle
"I want to ask her to be my girlfriend," I say to Barrett as soon as she enters my trailer.
"Wait, seriously?"
"Yah"
"That's awesome, really"
"But what if she doesn't want to"
"D-" she starts and sits down next to me at the small sitting accommodation. She puts her hands on my lower back before she continues her speech. "Of course she will say yes. I bet she's just waiting for you to bring it up"
"But-"
"No, but, Dani. Stop being this sad now, I promise you there's no need to be"

She is right, I need to be more confident. She will say yes. Most likely at least. I just want to experience endless mornings with her, just like the one today.
I smile through my thoughts.

"Why are you grinning like an idiot?" she asks me.
"Just thoughts," I say as I look to the side to face her.
"So, when will you ask that hot Italian to be with you officially?"
"She really is hot"
"D, stay focused"
I let out a muffled laugh. "Yeah, okay, you are right. I want to ask her on Friday because I am free on that day and then I would have time to prepare everything"
"Have you planned anything so far?"
"Indeed, I did. I ordered like a basket on the internet which is filled with Italian stuff. Sweets and so. And there's a card in it where I could leave a personal message and yeah, there'll be 'Will you be my girlfriend?' written on it. It should arrive the day after tomorrow, I believe"
"Wow, you're completely prepared already"
"Well, yeah, I thought that might be cute. Because she's a really romantic person and so, I'll decorate my room or the living room, I don't know yet, with like candles and rose petals or so"
"Since when are you such a gentlelady?"
"I am only with her"
"I know. You fell hard, D"
