Arriving back to my house, I unlock the door stefania following suit straight to the kitchen. Throwing my Keys down I open a top cupboard softly before pulling out two wine glasses, I glance back to the Italian spinning on her usual bar stool smiling bashfully as she watches me.

"Red or white?" I ask reciprocating the smile.

Stefania: "Red is good." She spoke starting to twist the other way.

Placing the freshly open bottle into my bare fridge, I let out a sigh before heading to a seat next to my best friend, we both sip at our wine making small conversation as we both reflect on the day.

"I'm not sure about the storyline coming up with everything..." I trail off bowing my head to my lap. Stef gently places a thumb and forefinger to my chin delicately pulling me to look at her olive complexion.

Stefania: "And I'll be there to make sure you're okay... I got you." Her calm voice speaks as her chocolate like orbs search my icy blue.

My eyes burn from the threatening tears as a lump forms, managing to swallow the hard lump I bring my hands to my face letting out a frustrated sounding sigh. Swiftly taking the last gulp of my wine, we shift to the couch switching on the tv. I sit a little distance away before an extended arm is pulling me into its embrace before planting a long kiss to my forehead.

Stefania: "I'm here bella, should we carry on watching grey's since you haven't seen it all?" She asked trying to sound offended. I nod slightly letting a small smile creep across my face.

I feel so gross, it's like bugs crawling across my body at all times. The voice, the touch, the smell consistent. It never leaving me. Hesitantly, I pull the stained material over my head across from the haunting glass staring at me as the crashing, rain like sound sides me, as my eyes stroke up and down my stomach flips more than once as if needing to throw up but couldn't. Finally I get under the steaming water sitting allowing the tears to flow and the heat to burn against my skin comfortingly.
   For what feels like hours later, reaching up I subside the comfort of the burning and the feeling of wet continues to roll down my face, I could still smell it. It radiates the house all the time. I want Danielle I thought making my breath hitch getting caught in my throat almost making me choke, wrapping myself in the small towel I start drying myself off. I emotionlessly throw one of my moms tops on and some running shorts, I miss her, I want her back I thought. Cleaning up I head downstairs hoping no one was here as it was quiet, reaching the bottom I listen out hearing faint, rough voices from a few doors down, slowly I walk up leaning my ear against the door letting out a sharp breath before pushing at the closed door.

Dad: "what do you want?" He asked bluntly.

"Food maybe, I haven't eaten since I don't even remember when." My voice was small as I started searching for anything.
Rob: "why does that thing need food, she's fat enough don't you think?" They laugh. Robs my dads friend, I used to call him uncle until my mom died.

"I just want to find something, I'll be out of your hair soon I promise." I mumble.

Finding an out of date yoghurt and some cubes of cheese, I head for the door, being pulled back by a clump of my hair i wince at the sensitive feeling. Rob holds me there for a few minutes opening the yoghurt and holding it upside down letting the lumpy liquid drop splatting on the floor, I feel the rumble in my aching stomach intensify as the tears threaten. He laughs releasing me from his grasp, i sprint the stairs hearing them go back to the conversation, placing the smelling cheese on my small table I stumble find my dinging phone. Danielle ❤️‍🩹 it read. I smile weakly.

D❤️‍🩹: hey sweet girl, just thinking what your call time is in the morning.
Me: hey Dani, I think it's around 7:30, why?
D❤️‍🩹: I was thinking if you wanna ride I'll come get you, Stef has to be on the greys set and I know you walk.
Me: D you don't have to do that, I'm fine walking. I was just think about calling you but it's okay. I'm fine now <3
D❤️‍🩹: okay sunshine, I'm always here if you need day or night. <3

I smile at the interaction before going to tiktok scrolling through whilst picking at the disgusting tasting cubes of cheese. Eventually, I finished them, there was a total of four. It took me three hours having to stop between each one preparing myself for the next. Placing my phone on charge I press a firm tap to Danielle's name on my Instagram chain of DM's.

Me: Danielle, thank you for everything the last couple of weeks, can't wait to make even more memories with the both of you two perfect human beings. See you in the morning... thanks for the ride too. <3.

I hit send placing the device on the small table before situating myself laying a light hand on my uncomfortable feeling stomach.

Cuddled up to a sleepy stefania, we sit in the silence of the room just enjoying each others company. My phone sings to me telling me it's Instagram so instinctively I reach for my phone accidentally startling a dosing off Italian.

Stefania: "siediti ancora stupendo.(Sit still gorgeous)." she playfully hits me on the arm groaning.

Sunshine🥺❤️‍🔥 : Danielle, thank you for everything the last couple of weeks, can't wait to make even more memories with the both of you two perfect human beings. See you in the morning... thanks for the ride too. <3.

Feeling a single tear dance down my face I read it out quietly causing stefania to smile weakly as she's almost asleep, I smile bashfully as I tighten my grip on stefania letting my happy tears fall once again. What's going on with me? I think as I heart the messages. Plugging it in, I situate myself moulding into stefania's body lightly closing my eyes.

"I love you." I tell stefania who's now lightly snoring.

Woken by my blaring alarm, I rub at my eyes swiftly turning the noise off sighing. Trying to move out of a tight grip, I smile placing a gentle kiss to stefania's cheek playfully. As she stirs, she groans letting out a big yawn before stretching.
"Morning beautiful." I spoke groggily with a scratchy morning voice.

Stefania:"Buongiorno bella!" She speaks sitting upright against the couch.

"Did you sleep okay?" I ask, cautious of her answer as I always am.

Her head moves up and down as she stretches her arms once more arching her back in the process, I smile whilst sluggishly going to the coffee machine placing a mug under and pressing the button.
