Damiano x Reader

Your voice helps me sleep

This is before you two were a couple. Short but sweet!

Once again I was laying in my bed trying to fall asleep knowing that tomorrow is the big day and that I need to rest up but I just couldn't shut my brain up. This happens to me more often than I like to admit and often I stay awake all night and crash in the middle of the day saying I watched a movie the whole night which is a total lie but I don't want to worry them. 

Recently, I found out that listening to Damiano's voice can easily lull my to sleep and that way I can get at least a few hours until something wakes me up again. My favorite is 'La parole lontane' and 'Torna a casa' because his voice is so soft and calming those two songs. 

So I stood up from my bed grabbing my headphones picking my 'sleep playlist' which is pretty much those two songs on repeat and laid back down pressing play and closing my eyes. I guess I wasn't so lucky tonight because still I couldn't make myself fall sleep instead my brain thinking about Damiano and my ever growing feelings for my band mate. 

I think back to all the funny moments we shared together ever since we were in high school to the times when something he does makes my heart speed up. I guess thinking back to those moments woke me up even more and I groaned much louder than I intended hearing a knock on my bedroom door. 

We were renting a nice studio/house where we will be staying for next couple of months while we write our next album. I was a little taken back that someone knocked this late at night but told them to enter nevertheless. 

When I saw Damiano's sleepy figure and messy hair appear on my door my heart almost stopped. Did I wake him up? I mean I walked around a lot and he was next door.

"What's wrong? You can't sleep?" he asked and I sat up a little nodding my head. He sat on my bed and I could tell that he was waken up barely a minute ago from how heavy his eyes were. 

"I'm sorry for waking you. Go back to bed and I'll try to stay quiet" I say but wanting anything else but for him to go. 

"Why aren't you sleeping?" he asked which kinda melted my heart the fact that he cared even though it was 3 in the morning and I know his brain was sleeping.

"Sometimes I just can't shut my brain up so I don't sleep..." I say seeing him look at me worried now seeing like he has been awake for hours. 

"Have you tried making yourself fall sleep somehow?" he asked and I nodded and his eyes landed on my headphones which made me blush. 

"Your voice helps me sleep sometimes" I say which made me blush more looking anywhere but him when he looked at me. Great, he is going to think I am a weirdo!

"Scoot over" he said and I swear I though I didn't hear right but when he started climbing under the blankets with me I moved making space for him before laying back down. 

"Now, come here" he said opening his arms and I looked at his reassuring smile before laying my head on his chest feeling one arm snake around me holding me close while the other started playing with my hair.

"What song do you usually listen to when you try to fall asleep?" he asked and I swore my heart skipped a beat thinking that he might actually sing me to sleep. 

"Torna a casa" I say and he nods moving a little to get comfortable before starting to sing softly and quietly and I felt myself get relaxed and even tired which was the first. 

I yawned putting my hand on my mouth in embarrassment  but he smiled at the fact that it worked and that I was getting tired.

"Thank you..." I say before closing my eyes enjoying the way his heart beat matched with his voice in perfect sync. 

"Anything for you, piccola" he said kissing the top of my head and that was the last thing I heard as sleep overtook me.
