Soon Saturday has came and it was time for the show.

Since I broke up with Dominguez I got hate, but at the same time so much more love and support from friends, family and fans and it really made me happy.

Whenever we met some fans in the city they were asking me about Dominguez I always tried to answer calmly, but when I couldn't Marco always protected me and I really loved when he did that.

But today he can't protect me, but support me only as we need to work together to perform perfectly and I'm not worried about this, but I got so annoyed when Dominguez called me earlier tonight.

He wants me to forgive him and that he was drunk when he kissed that other girl, but I know that this is not true.

I know because he never gets drunk so much that he can't control what he's doing and with who!

- Clari, try to forget that he even existed - said Marco - And try to focus...

- It's not so easy when you have such an asshole ex-boyfriend like me! - I groaned then I went to hug him - I'm not mad at you... I'm just...

- I know - he smiled and he just kissed me on the cheek - I'm sorry... But I just want you to be fine...

- I know... And thank you for that - I smiled.

- Clara Alonso and Marco Garavaglia! - we heard the producer calling us - 10 minutes!

Marco looked at me and smiled which calmed me down as well and we went out to perform 10 minutes later.

----- TIME SKIP -----

Our performance after Emanuele and Jennifer was better than I thought it will be as I wasn't focusing properly.

All the jury members were really satisfied...

- But if we're here let me ask you something... - said Gabriella Pession, slightly sarcastically - What have you done with Diego Dominguez? By now all the people are talking about this and...

Luckily both my parents and Diego were here to support me as well and I feel so much better knowing this...

- Excuse me, but this isn't the place for this, don't you think? - said Marco Liorni.

- People has to know!

- Well - I mumbled, trying not to shake as I could see from the beginning that she doesn'g like me at all - I broke up with him...

- Really? Just because they say he broke up with you and...

- Gabriella! - this time Selvaggia spoke up, turning to look at her coldly - This is not the place to talk about this! This is personal which isn't supposed to be in this show! - she said then turned back to look at Milly who knew what to do right away and called back Emanuele and Jennifer in to hear out our points.

In the end me and Marco got 4 points from the jury which was really good and I was happy that we were the first to perform because after this we could sit down and relax.

Around one and half hours later we all went out to hear the results so far and this time we got 41% while Emanuele got 59% which shocked me, but I tried to keep straight face.

Should this be because of all the toubles and the break-up with Doninguez?

I don't know...

----- TIME SKIP -----

I got another chance to show the jury and everyone else that I'm good enough to get to the final show, but I don't know how I did as I fell... But the others did too.

Anyway...

We have been waiting for out turn to see if we got green, or red and Marco whispered into my ear...

- Don't worry... You were amazing... - he said.

- Thank you...

- Even if we won't be in the final... Remember that I'm proud of you...

I looked up at him now and smiled.

Then it was time...

I was literally just standing there, not thinking about anything at all until I heard...

- You're in!! - said Milly and I could see the green light which really means that we're in.

At this moment I couldn't control myself anymore and I jumped into Marco's arms, happier than ever and kissed him...
