Do I have to know who you are? / Måneskin / Damiano David

"Yeah I think I will join you, the coffee at this shop is great" Ethan declares while Victoria and Thomas burst out in laughter again.

"You're joking right?" Damiano asks annoyed

"I'm not why should I?" Ethan answers grinning "Am I not allowed to join you? I'm your best friend don't forget that"

Damiano sighs "no you are it's just-"

"What? You want your time alone with Luna?" Ethans says with a grinning face, Victoria and Thomas still laughing

"Yeah I want time alone with her" Damiano finally admits

"And I want to meet her, maybe she's a serial killer I heard there are a lot in this area, I have to protect you" Ethan answers

Everyone in the room is laughing except for Damiano.

"omg fine join me if you really want it's impossible to change your mind anyway" Damiano answers annoyed "but don't embarrass me or say something stupid and just that you know she is everything except for a serial killer"

Victoria, Thomas, and Ethan start cheering after Damiano finally agreed.
He leaves the room annoyed only shortly after that.

"Hey Ethan," the laughing Victoria says

He looks at her.

"You're gonna embarrass him right?" she asks

"Of course I will what else did you expect" he replies

"Omg you have to take a photo of them I wanna see what she looks like please" Thomas begs

"I will" he answers

"Oh and you have to tell us everything when we're all back" Victoria demands

"Of course I will" Ethan answers

The three of them all go to their rooms to get ready while Damiano is already doing the same.

He's annoyed. This could have been a day just for Luna and him because after yesterday they really needed some time alone so they could talk but now, now an annoying and super hyped Ethan is joining him and Damiano already knows he definitely will embarrass him.

Damiano just adds some rings, chains, and earrings to his outfit. He grabs his wallet and his now fully charged phone and leaves his room. He takes the elevator down and is now waiting in front of the hotel where the others are already waiting for him.

The afternoon sun is burning on his skin and maybe it wasn't the dumbest idea of Thomas and Victoria to go to the beach again but Luna is more important.

"Have fun at the beach" Ethan hugs Thomas and Victoria goodbye

"Yeah, you too" Thomas answers him with a smirk.

After Thomas and Victoria left, Ethan and Damiano start walking to the coffee shop. Damiano is nervous and super annoyed while Ethan is just smiling.

"You know I hate you so much you're annoying," Damiano tells Ethan

"Oh I know that you hate me and that I'm annoying but that's what I have to do, I'm like you're little brother and I'm your best friend which makes it my job to annoy you" Ethan smirks

"Oh shut up" Damiano answers while he enters a mobile phone store, Ethan follows him confused. He wants to buy Thomas a new charger so he finally has his own again and Damiano knows exactly that Thomas would never buy one on his own. Thomas would rather always begs for other people's charger than spent his own money.

After buying one the two boys leave the store again and continue their way to the coffee shop. Damiano gets more nervous with every step they take. He starts to twist his Fingers and Ethan notices.

"Hey bro you don't have to be nervous everything will be okay"

"I'm not nervous" Damiano pretends and Ethan knows is too well to believe him

"Bro you are nervous but you don't have to be as far as I know this girl likes you too otherwise she wouldn't have left you a letter and also I'm sorry that I'm here maybe it wasn't the best idea to join you but I really want to meet Luna" Ethans replies

"No no it's fine I really want you to meet her too and to be honest I'm actually pretty happy that you're by my side" Damiano answers

Ethan smiles at him and the two boys continue their walk. After a couple of minutes, they spot the coffee shop in the distance. Hopefully, Luna works today otherwise this whole thing would be really unnecessary.

Through the window you can see a few customers and an old lady behind the counter which definitely isn't Luna, it's her aunt the one Damiano already met a couple of days ago.

"Shit she isn't here" Damiano curses with a disappointed voice

"Hey maybe she's just not here right now and she will come later" Ethan tries to cheer him up

"Maybe" Damiano answers but he obviously has no hope left

"Think positive everything is possible" Ethan responds and opens the door

"Ready?" He asks Damiano

"Ready" he replies
