Tw: Eating disorder, mentions of eating disorder

You were not doing well and felt exhausted both psychically and mentally. You were able to hide it for a while, but your boyfriend Damiano had started to notice that something was awfully wrong.

You woke up and saw that Damiano wasn't beside you, confused you went down to the kitchen.

"Good morning amore mio, I made you breakfast" he smiled.

Recently Damiano had noticed changes in your behaviour, especially around food. He saw your panicked look whenever you were near food and your hesitation to eat. This is why Damiano decided to do your favourite breakfast, he wanted to do something nice for his love and to see if his suspicions were true.

Based on your reaction Damiano knew he was right.

You felt yourself starting to panic at the sight of the food. Not wanting to alert your boyfriend, you tried to hide your anxiety.

"Thank you Dami! It looks delicious" you tried to smile, but it looked more like a grimace.

As you sat down at the table your anxiety increased. You looked down at your plate and started to fiddle with your food. You could feel Damiano watching you, and as to not raise his suspicions, you tried to fight the voices in your head.

"Dolcezza aren't you going to eat?" he questioned.

"I will I'm just not that hungry" you tried to reason but Damiano was having none of that.

"Just take a small bite, it's better than nothing Y/N" he encouraged.

You tried to take a bite, but you just couldn't. "I can't" you sobbed and went straight to the bathroom.

You tried to weight yourself but the scale wasn't working. You flipped it over to see what could be wrong, and were met by a note.

"Your weight does not define your worth"  -Damiano.

You felt overwhelmed and before you knew it, you could feel yourself tearing up. You didn't deserve him.

Suddenly you got interrupted by Damiano's knocking, " Amore can I come in" he carefully asked. "I don't want you to see me like this" you mumbled back.

"Please Y/N I need to see your face and know that you're okay" Damiano pleaded.

You opened the door hesitantly, turning away from Damiano. You felt ashamed at the thought of him seeing you like this, like a mess.

Damiano spun you around and wrapped his arms around you, kissing your forehead. You couldn't hold back your tears and when the first tear fell, you couldn't stop. You cried and cried until no more tears came. Damiano whispered It's gonna be okay baby into your hair, while stroking your back.

"Let's talk in the living room dolcezza" he carried you bridal style and put you down on the sofa so you faced each other. Damiano took both of your hands in his, kissing them gently.

"What's going on Y/N? I know you're struggling, how can I help you?".

You were so tired of pretending everything was fine and deep down you knew you couldn't continue like this and needed help. So you told him everything.

Damiano felt his heart break at what you told him, if only you could see yourself through his eyes. How could you not see that you're enough just as you are and that there is no weight limit on beauty.

"Thank you for telling me amore mio, I'm so proud of you" he murmured and hugged you.

"Dami I'm scared" you admitted, he pulled you closer. "I understand dolcezza, but you've done the hardest part, asking for help. It's not going to be easy, but it will get better. And I'm going to be right by your side through it all, you have my word".

You squeezed his hands "Thank you Damiano, it feels a little less scarier knowing I have you by my side. "I'm glad I can help" he smiled and kissed you. You felt proud of yourself, for finally reaching out for help. You realized that admitting that you need help doesn't make you weak and that in the end, it'll be worth it.

" Y/N is it okay if I call a doctor so we can set up a meeting?" Damiano tenderly asked. "Yes it is, I trust you" you said softly.

Damiano smiled so big "I love you so much amore, everything will be alright." He kissed your forehead and started typing in the doctors number. You cuddled into him, you knew that in the end everything would be okay.
