When the story of Fiore's supposed engagement to Piero reaches Katia. Katia recalls on her past once more, the one she was trying to forget for many years. Now that she's with a famous band member, Gianluca Ginoble, she finds it hard not being able...
A few months have passed, I've been in and out of hospital due to a few infections. Nothing too serious, apart from throwing up a few times I'm recovering well. Gianluca, although I have told him to go home many of times, has been by my side during these times. I'm lucky to call him mine. Today we were apparently meant to be attending a dinner with Fiore, Piero, Ignazio and Melissa. Although I am not ready to jump back into things, Gianluca reassures me that it's just dinner and no one will bring up the hospital incidents. Yet I continue to worry although I get a lot of reassurance from my love.
We're out in the garden, sitting down at my mothers home as we lay looking up at the sky. This was Gianluca's idea, to try and get me to calm. We returned to my mothers house for a little get away for a few days, too much touring, too many people, it's all just getting to me. Looking up at the sky, I ponder some thoughts about the recent events that haven taken place throughout these few months, as I do so I feel a warm touch brush a strand of hair from my face. I turn to the owner of the hand and smile to see my love looking after me.
I smiled softly at him and let out a small giggle looking at his eyes, I spoke after a few more seconds passed, "You've got that look in your eyes again, Gian."
He played cool with me, "What look? The hunger look? The tired look?" He paused for effect and began to tickle my ribs, "A playful look!? Oh it must be that! Tell me I'm correct, amore!"
I burst out into laughter and wriggled in his grip, I pleaded for him to stop but to no avail he refused and continued to tickle me. At this point water was running from my eyes as I continued to wriggle, at one point I managed to pull his arms away as I panted and rubbed at my eyes. He laid back beside me with a smirk and wiggled his eye brows, causing me to shake my head and laugh once more. I sat up for a few seconds before I broke the silence, I didn't look at him before I spoke, "Do you think I'm over reacting about this dinner?"
"Amore..." he spoke softly as he sat up next to me, he wrapped his arm around my shoulders in aid to comfort me and settle my nerves, "Yes these past few months have been tough, I know Ignazio was the only one who really cared for you when you were in and out of hospital but don't you think you're acting a little too much? I mean, you know they care about you..."
"I know Gian, but I still can't help thinking that they didn't... Ever since I decided to go with a solo music career I feel like Fiore and Melissa hate me for it. Yes we had some good times in our group but I felt like going solo was right for me..."
His arm moved up and down my shoulder, he spoke once more with his beautiful deep Italian voice, "Kati, look at me..."
I listened and looked into his eyes, listening to my loves request...

He smiled at me, with the most cutest face I've ever seen from him. This was unlike him to just smile at me, there must be a reason behind it. But I couldn't help it, I smiled back and giggled at him. He laughs with me and pulls me into the most warmest hug ever as we fell back onto the blanket. I looked up at him and smiled.
"I love you Gian, more than you'll ever know."
"And I love you too, Katia. You love it when I call you Kati? Right?" He looked down at me searching my eyes for an answer.
"Yes Gian, you know I do." I smiled in response to his question. I rolled onto my back.
We laid there in silence for a while in order to enjoy each others company. I love it when he knows how to cheer me up, all these years we've been together and I knew I made the right choice. When I first laid eyes on him, I knew he was the one from the very start. I know, sounds like a stupid fairy tale nonsense but it's true, I love him deeply and there's no one that can take him away from me....
The dinner soon came around and I was worried about how I looked, Gian kept reassuring me once more that I looked perfect as I matched his suit. We walked into a local Italian restaurant as we were guided my the waiter and sat down at the reserved table. Ignazio and Melissa were already there, Fiore and Piero were yet to still arrive. We walked up to the table as Ignazio stood with a smile, he opened his arms wide to me and Gianluca.
"Kati! Gian! Come here you two! It's been a while!"
I hugged Ignazio as he gave me two pecks on either side of the cheeks, I giggled and patted his chest "Alright Ignazio calm down, it's nice to see you too." I sat down in my chair, I could feel Melissa's eyes on me, I didn't pay attention to her.
Then She showed up...
I can't do it Gian...
I can't...
