"I'm so glad we're okay".

"Me too" Maya whispered, "I knew I wouldn't be able to stay away from you for long".

"How did you know that?" Carina teased.

Maya leant in close and whispered against her lips, "because I'm completely and utterly obsessed with you" she said before kissing her with all the love she has.

The next morning rolled around pretty quick. Carina woke up first, instantly feeling excitement build inside of her, and it took a minute to realise why. Her and Maya were okay, they were actually okay. They needed to talk it all through but they were going to be fine. No more fighting.

She looked at her fiancée next to her, peacefully asleep. "I love you bambina" she whispered before sneaking out of bed and down to the kitchen.

The past day was rough for the both of them, considering they are completely inseparable, so Carina wanted to make a special breakfast for them.

She quickly whipped up her Nonna's recipe for pastries and put them in the oven, chopping up various fruits and laying them on a plate on the table. She got the pastries out of the oven and put them on the table too, followed by putting a bottle of their finest champagne in an ice bucket in the centre. She also put orange juice in a jug so they could make mimosas.

By the time Carina was done, she checked the clock and it was 10:40am, laughing to herself about Maya's ability to sleep all day if not disturbed.

She walked back up to their bedroom to wake her. "Bella" she whispered, laying beside her and pulling her in close.

"Hm" Maya let out a grunt, hiding her face in Carina's neck.

"It's time to get up" Carina placed kisses on her head. Maya's eyes remained closed as she let her hand wander up Carina's t shirt to her boob, comfortably holding it. "Maya" Carina giggled.

"It gives me comfort" Maya excused, not attempting to move her hand.

"I know" Carina shifted to kiss her on the cheek, "but I have a little surprise for you downstairs".

"Hm okay" Maya whispered, moving her hand and sitting up. She let out a yawn and turned to Carina.

"Ready?" the Italian asked. Maya nodded so they both got out of the bed. "As much as I love you naked... it's a bit chilly downstairs so you might want to put this on" she handed her an oversized t shirt, owned by the Italian.

"Thank you" Maya whispered as she got dressed. Once she did that, the blonde pulled her in by the waist, "I love you so much".

"Ti amo bambina" Carina whispered, connecting their lips, "let's go". She intertwined their fingers as they walked down into the kitchen.

"Wow this all smells so good" Maya smiled as they approached the table, "did you make those pastries yourself?".

Carina nodded proudly, "Nonna's recipe".

"I better count my lucky stars tonight" she winked, making Carina laugh. The blonde took another moment to take in the table as they sat down next to each other.

"So... as much as I love to spoil you and shower you with love, there is a reason for all of this" Carina began, holding onto Maya's hand. "Maya I love you, with all of my heart, and yesterday when we fought, my heart broke. But not only that, my heart made a little more room for the love I have for you, because you stood in front of me and told me to take the job in Canada because it's what I've always wanted, but I know with every inch of my body that you really don't want me to go".
