//Just Eat// -Måneskin

2. Cigarette

You decide to just go to bed, since you have nothing to do. The band has to perform this evening, but you don't want to come with them right now. You are not in the band and you have seen them playing hundreds of times. It is weird, how you know how lucky you are. After Eurovision probably every European girl wishes they were in a situation like this, but you don't. It is awful to be with these awesome people that you can't even compare yourself to them. You slowly fall asleep.

"Heyy y/n! Wake up", you hear Damiano saying. You open your eyes. You see Victoria, Thomas, Ethan and Damiano.

"What?" You say with a tired voice.

"Girl, you have slept like thirteen hours", Victoria said and hitted you with a pillow.

"Yeah, that is true", Damiano says, lighting up his cigarette.

"This is my house DAMIANO", you shout and stand up just so that you could slap him, but someone grabs your waist and pulls you back gently. You can see Damiano's surprised face as he lets the smoke out of his mouth. You can't process how it feels, when you realise that the one who stopped you was Thomas. You and Thomas aren't really close friends, but you spend time together often. You can feel how you are blushing.

You are still mad at Damiano, because he is smoking at your house so you try to leave, but Thomas holds you even tighter.

"Hey, chill. It is just a cigarette", Thomas whispers, starts laughing and let's you go.

"You were acting so Damiano, am I right?" Vic says and starts laughing as well.

"Hey I don't tease that- much", Damiano said lowering his voice at the end of the sentence.

"Damiano, could you atleast smoke on the balcony", you ask and point at the door.

"Whatever", Damiano says and the cigarette stops burning, while he is pressing it against his arm leaving a burn mark. Then he just walks away.

Damiano looks so tough, but I have known him for a long time and he actually is not okay. He does that cigarette thing for pain, but it makes him look tough. We all know the roles and that we have to kind of play by the rules. That's why they are so sad even though they have everything.

"I can go after him", Victoria said. She ran after him. Kind of awkward that Ethan had just been standing there. He realised the situation and he left.

"Why did you have to stop me, he would've gotten a real good slap", you say to break the silence.

"sai che sta già soffrendo", Thomas says.

("you know that he is in pain already"), Thomas says.

"Well that is unfortunately true", you say and look at Thomas. You have long eye contact until you break it.

"Yeah, I should probably go do - stuff", you say in panic.

"Yeah I know, I have a - thing too", Thomas says and you leave your house leaving Thomas there. (I know it is weird.)

Few hours later you get a message.

TEXT

Ethan

-Hey y/n do you wanna come to the studio? Dam, Vic and Thomas are coming too, I could finally teach you basics with drums. I know that you want to be in the band, but you could still come. It is boring just with them -

y/n

-Yeah sure I will come in twenty minutes-

I don't know how I feel about this one. This whole story is kind of messy and improvised, but I hope you guys like it.  

UPDATE

Sorry about the writing mistakes, I was suprised that there were so many.
