Love At First Sight - Damiano David

A Magical Night

"Europe start voting now!" The hosts shouted. My excitement kept getting bigger by every shout from the crowd.

"Hey y/n you okay?" Ethan told me, we were sitting next to Italy so we stayed next to each other every now and then. "Yeah I'm okay. This just seems so surreal." It actually did feel surreal. This has been a dream of mine since I was 8 years old and now, it was actually happening.

~~~~~~~~~

I was up next, I was very excited. I went backstage to put my in-ears on. I shook off my nerves and stepped on stage. Once I stepped foot on the stage I felt an impeccable feeling. The crowd clapping. My parents watching on tv. My bestfriends proud of me. I thought of all the things that made me happy and when I did that all my excitement left and replaced itself with happiness.

~~~~~~~~~

I saw Lauren backstage and as I stepped off the stage I embraced myself in to her arms. "Y/n I am so proud of you!" She said with mascara running down her face. Behind her were Victoria, Damiano, Thomas and Ethan. They had been so supportive through out this journey.

"Y/n that was amazing." Damiano told me in a low but excited tone. "Thank you so-" I didnt even finish my sentence before I was almost smashed by a hug. Everyone hugged me and jumped with me.

All that practicing, all of those sleepless nights and all those rehearsals, are now over. Maybe they will continue until Saturday.

~~~~~~~~~~
We sat next to Måneskin until the night was over. Now there was only one thing left. The best part, who will be passing to the grand final.

"Hey guys I'm gonna go to the bathroom." I said. It was gonna happen again but I didnt want anyone to help me. This time it was worse. I had a very difficult time to breath and couldnt catch my breath.

"Hey guys I will be right back." Damiano left the group to come look for me because I was taking longer than usual.

This time I wasnt on the floor, I was just standing in front of the sink trying to catch my breath.

"Hey y/n you ok?" Damiano came in asking for me. "Yeah I'm ok just had a hard time breathing." I replied. "Nothing bad though right? Because I dont want the beautiful princess to feel sick during the results." He said. He gave me butterflies that no one ever gave me. I was sure that I wanted to spend my entire life with this guy, even if it means moving to Italy.

~~~~~~~~~

"Hey y/n. Were you two making out in the bathrooms or something?" Victoria asked as I blushed. "Oh- um no I just had a difficult time breathing because of the results." I couldnt stop myself from becoming more red by Victoria's question. That sounded like a good idea though.

~~~~~~~~~~~

"Europe stop voting now!" The hosts said. That's it, the results were going to be revealed. Not even thinking I grabbed Damiano's hand and placed it in mine. I could feel his palms starting to sweat.

"First country to pass is...

RUSSIA....

....ALBANIA....

MALTA.....

BELGIUM.....

LITHUANIA...

CYPRUS...

SWEDEN...

AZERBAIJAN.....

And the last two countries..."

I squeezed Damiano's hand tighter.

"UKRAINE AND ITALY!"

We all jumped out of our seats. I went to hug Lauren, Victoria, Thomas and Ethan and as I turned around to hug Damiano I was greeted by a very aggressive but soothing kiss. He cupped half of my face and I liked that.

I closed my eyes and relaxed because his touch was soft. "I love you and I cant believe I will be spending more time with you." He made me blush. "I love you too." I said as I gently started kissing his lips again.
