Eurovision (Part 1)

It was the day of Eurovision and with your best friend representing your country you couldn't be more excited. Since you weren't a part of the band you couldn't attend the event itself due to covid restrictions. However, the afterparty was a different story – with no audience there it was less people so you knew you could go there once the show ended.

You were texting your friend throughout the whole thing – their band was performing 20th so they had more than enough time to calm their nerves and then get stressed about the performance again. Once it was their turn you sent a text wishing good luck and enjoyed the performance which was incredible as always.

After finishing she messaged you about how incredible it felt to perform for the whole Europe and you cheered her on but after a bit you got distracted by a song that sounded so good you just had to see who it was. Italy was the name of the country written in the bottom left corner of the screen and it was almost as if "perfect" was written on the body of their singer. The skin-tight outfit, confidence and incredible body combined with his voice mesmerized you but you couldn't stay hypnotized for long as your friend was bombarding your phone with messages.

You two chatted throughout the rest of performances and the voting. Your country didn't do as well as everybody had hoped but they made it to the top 10 which was already a good enough reason to celebrate until the morning. Italy won so you were certain they'd be at the afterparty too and although you were here to support your friend – you couldn't help but get a little excited you'd get to see that godlike man in real life.

You put on your outfit for the night and headed out. The arena where the after party was being hosted wasn't too far from the hotel so you knew you'd be there in just a few minutes. The excitement crept up and you excited the taxi with a smile. You were looking forward to celebrating with your friend tonight but also, you couldn't wait to see if the Italian man was as charming in real life as he was on the big screen.

You entered the building and were met by dim lights and loud music. There was quite a bit of people and although you couldn't attend the biggest event in Europe ever since the pandemic started – you couldn't be happier to attend the afterparty and have the feeling of a normal life back after such a long time.

Texting your friend to meet you at the bar that was in the center of the place, you started getting anxious. There were so many people around and you got worried your friend wouldn't see you but before your thoughts could go any further you heard a man with a low voice order champagne near you. You turned around to see that it was the Italian singer in all his glory, clearly in the mood to celebrate.

"An extra glass of champagne if you can sir, for this bella donna here" He said while looking right at you.

"Oh, thank you so much" you said, keeping eye contact with the man.

The champagne was given to you and before you could introduce yourself properly your friend came and hugged you, being all excited about the events that took place tonight. You congratulated her once again, properly but when you turned around the man was gone. You felt a little sad that he disappeared and went away to celebrate with his bandmates presumably but you knew even better than before that you had to get to know him at least a bit better.
