It was 6:57pm when Stef and Dani heard the doorbell ring. Danielle got up eagerly to answer the door and Barrett was quick to give her a very loud hello with a warm hug.
"Hey what about me?!" Stef said in a fake sad voice with puppy eyes. "Oh you big baby come give me some love!" Barrett said whilst letting go of Dani and bringing Stefania into a big cuddle. All three ladies walked through to the kitchen and were just catching up about their lives recently. Barrett rambled on about her recent hookup with a guy called matt, which she clearly enjoyed, whilst Stefania and Danielle went on about how crappy their work lives have been recently.
"Enough about my sex life, do yall have your eyes om anyone?" Barrett asked both of them while raising her eyebrows a few times. Dani and Stef immediately looked right at each other, then back at Barrett which straight away made Barrett want to burst out laughing at how obvious their connection was with each other, but she forced herself to keep a straight face. "Nope i dont!!" Dani spoke up first, "yeah no me neither" Stef agreed swiftly.
"'Mmmm okay if you say so" Barrett chuckled giving them both a glare. After a while of talking they grabbed some snacks and headed to the living room to watch a movie. They all decided on watching star wars. Barrett sat on the small sofa with a small white blanket whilst Stef and Danielle were on the bigger sofa with a big fluffy grey blanket. As soon as they came in Barrett went straight for the small sofa, leaving the other two no choice but to sit together, she knew exactly what she was doing.
About 45 minutes into the movie, Stefania had fallen into a deep sleep whilst laying on Danielle and Barrett couldn't help but snap a picture of the two of them. She couldn't help but notice the look that was on Dani's face whilst she was cuddling into Stefania, the look of genuine happiness and she looked so relaxed. Barrett decided to say something about it because she couldn't bare how much neither of them could see what she does every time they're together. She turned the volume on the tv and spoke up about what she was thinking about.
"So, what were you saying about not liking Stefania??" She asked the blonde sitting across from her. "Barrett shes my best friend, that doesn't mean I like her like that" Dani said quietly, considering Stefania was sleeping right on her chest. "You should see the way yall look at each other, being around each other, you make each other so much happier than anyone else ever can, your chemistry is insane and more than just a bestfriend Dani, dont dismiss it because you've convinced yourself you're straight. Atleast think about it D."
Danielle listened closely to every word Barrett said and when she finished, she felt like she was going to start crying, she knew her and Stefania were super close but for some reason didn't consider the fact that the love and admiration she has for Stef could be something more than a friendship. As mush as she tried, she couldn't help the few stray tears escaping her eyes, Barrett tilted her head looking over at Dani as she was looking down trying to discreetly wipe her tears.
"Talk to me D, whats on your mind?" Barrett asked in a hushed, soft tone. "I cant mess this up B, shes my best friend and has been for years, I cant lose her because i'm confused about my own feelings or wahtever this is. She means too much to me for that. What if she doesn't wanna be as close or it makes her uncomfortable? I cant fucking live with that" Dani replied, no longer being able to hold back tears at all. She knew she needed to hear what Barrett said to her before but hearing it out loud and letting it sink in bought on a feeling she wasn't ready for and definitely didnt expect.
"You dont have to tell her straight away though Dani, give yourself time to think about it and figure out how you feel, just dont try and ignore it." Barret told her. Dani nodded and let out a sigh and cuddled into Stefania more.
About 15 minutes later Stef began to wake up and she looked angelic. Dani couldn't help but smile when she saw Stefania look up at her from where she was laying on her chest. "Buongiorno" Stef whispered, her voice laced with sleep. Dani felt butterflies in her stomach hearing Stefs voice after she had just woken up. "Morning you!" Dani replied. Barrett also couldn't help but smile seeing this after the conversation her and Danielle just had.
"Yall hungry?? I could really do with some food" Barrett asked the two of them. Stefania shook her head no, still laying on Dani, whilst the blonde replied "absolutely yes please im starving"
"How about thai food?" Danielle agreed and told Barrett what she wanted. "Are you sure you dont wanna get something small? You might get a little hungry later." Dani asked stef, evidently worried that she was asleep for so long and woke up with no appetite, especially after barely eating all day due to how sad she was. Barrett ordered some extra food knowing there was a chance Stef would change her mind later on.
They carried on watching what was left of the movie and waited for the food to arrive.

The 3 women heard a knock at the door and Barrett went to collect the food. Stef moved up and off of Danielle so that Dani could go and get her food. They both came back to the sofa and Stefania sat up so Dani could sit next to her. The two were eating their food whilst continuing to watch the tv. Danielle was starting to get worried that Stefania wasn't eating as much so she put some food on her fork, held it up to Stefs mouth and said "open please." Which to her surprise, she actually ate it. "Mmm this is really good" Stef said after finishing her bite of food. "You want more? I'll get you a fork" Danielle replied.
"No need bella you have a fork right here" Stef said to Dani with her gorgeous smile that made Danielle want to melt right on the spot. Barrett was sat on the sofa eating her food while trying to discreetly look at the cute moment between Danielle and Stefania. She couldn't help but smile at the connection they both had with each other and it melted her heart.
"Aaaaa" Stefania said with her mouth open like a little child that wants some of their parents food. Of course Dani happily fed her another bite of food, aswell as giggling at how cute Stef was by doing the smallest thing.
- 1hr 30mins later
After finishing their food and having a few too many drinks they decided they should probably head to bed. "Guest rooms mine!" Barrett said, taking an opportunity to leave Dani and Stef no choice but to hopefully sleep in the same bed, considering how uncomfortable the sofas are to sleep on. "Guess that leaves us in my room again!" Dani said with a smile, looking at Stefania. "Hold up, again?" Barrett blurted out whilst looking back and forth between the two women in front of her.
"Uh yeah she was with me last night" Dani said in a very wary tone, not knowing how much Stef would be willing for her to say. Barrett raised her eyebrows and went "really!!"
"Oh Barrett get your head out your asshole I just had a crappy day and Danielle was there for me through it all" Stef said laughing at Barretts response. "Hmm okay, i'm going to get some sleep i'll see yall in the morning" Barrett said, walking towards the guest room.
"Ready to head to bed?" Dani asked the Italian stood next to her. "More than ready I'm exausted despite practically doing nothing all day" Stef replied.
They headed to Danielles bedroom and Stefania went into her en suite to use the bathroom and also get changed and brush her teeth. She came outside to get into bed, and saw Dani with no top on and her back towards her and she froze on the spot. She knew her best friend was gorgeous but seeing her like this made her heart stop. She was snapped out of her trance when Dani put on an oversized top and walked a little further towards her. "You okay?" the blonde asked with a slight smile on her face. "Sorry sorry yeah im good" Stefania replied and walked over to lay down in bed. Danielle went to brush her teeth then also came to bed and joined Stefania in the bed.
Stefania cuddled into Danielle straight away, she couldn't help it, being wrapped in Dani's arms just made her feel safe. Yes, it confused her and slightly scared her but she didn't wanna think too much into it because the only thing that mattered to her was being able to have her safe place, the place she loved the most.
