2nd Person POV: Summer 1983 | Northern Italy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 0:01 You and your parents come to northern Italy for summer holidays by train. It's a beautiful country, nothing much to expect. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4:07 You sit in your hotel room, bored. Only books to read. You go downstairs and ask your parents if you can go out alone. You promise to be safe. You find out there is a festival 10 minutes away from where you're staying. You make your way there and see people dancing everywhere, but one person catches your eyes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6:30 A new music turns on. You've never heard it before. You slowly make your way to the person sitting alone on a bench. You introduce yourself and they do too. You ask them if they want to dance. They first decline but after thinking a little, they say yes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 7:45 Groovy music turns on. You and your partner dance, happy that you guys met. They turn out to be super nice and charming. You find something interesting about them. It's just a little dance, maybe we'll stay friends. Nobody can know what will happen. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 9:10 - 27:35 You guys are still dancing. The festival gets more and more crowded. Sometimes it's slower dances, Sometimes it's faster. You guys vibe there. The whole scene is wonderful. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 27:37 You guys get tired of dancing so you head to a lake nearby and lay on the grass. By the time you guys had stopped dancing the sun already set and it was getting darker and darker. As you're laying on the grass you're wondering... Why me? This could have happened to anyone, why me tho? It's like a movie. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 29:25 After you start to get tired you stand up and drag your significant other with you so you keep ur energy. You guys run into a store 5 minutes away and you decide to buy "promise rings". They don't know about it tho. You go in and tell ur partner to stay there. After you bought the rings you fake propose to them as a joke. You both laugh and start to walk away from the store. You see the lanterns going on since the sun is fully set and it's dark. All jokes aside you tell them it's a promise ring and that you will never forget them. No matter what. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 33:04 - 39:22 You guys start walking towards the lake you came from. Surrounded by trees, you take in the beautiful scene infront of you. Everything is so peaceful. You don't even think about your parents worrying about you, but unable to reach you since only the rich people have cellphones. You can still hear the music of the festival but it's a faint noise. You and your partner lay back down on the grass and hold hands, glancing at eachother and the moonlight shining on the water. Sometimes getting up to slow dance in the middle of nowhere. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 39:23 - 41:27 While laying in the grass you look at the other, adoring the little details on their face. The other looks at you and realizes you were already staring. You can't help but blush a little as the other laughs. You may not notice but you have fallen deep for them. You look at eachother with only love in your eyes. The next thing that happens, seems like a dream. You decide to risk it all and lean in for a deep and passionate kiss. Now you guys are making out on the grounds with pretty flowers, leaves and trees around you. You don't want this to end. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 41:29 You guys pull away and now you finally know you are in love. You hope the other feels the same way, which gets proven to you as they open their mouth to say "I love you, y/n". You can't help but smile and kiss them again and you say "me too" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 43:44 - 51:58 It suddenly stars to rain. Tiny droplets pouring down from the clouds. You guys get up quickly and run into the town. You hope to find a place that's open and you finally found one. it's (your choice). A wonder they're still open at this time. By now it's probably after 1 AM but you don't care. In that place you guys dry yourselves and share another kiss. After the rain stopped you go out and decide to play hide and seek in a field a few minutes away. You look for them as they suddenly jump on your back and scare you but you both laugh it off. You guys are running out of ideas on what to do and it's really late. the festival ended by now. You want the night to be special. You run back to town again with your partner following after you. You guys just sit on a bench on the sidewalk and lean into eachother cuddling, watching a few cars pass by. The bench was still wet but since you weren't completely dry either, it doesn't matter. They lay their head on your shoulder and you stay like this for a while. The world doesn't feel real anymore. You don't realize but you fall asleep together on a wooden bench in town. You love them. They love you. You forget everything and you're just in this moment. In the back of your head your parents are in your mind, but that's not the important thing right now. A few hours pass and you slowly wake up, still in that position and the sun starts rising. You also notice your partner already awake, staring at you with pure adoration. You have to go back to your hotel but you promise the other that you will meet again at the lake. You say your goodbyes and give them a kiss - which might be the last one you guys will ever share. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 52:02 You walk back to your hotel and it already feels lonely without them. As you open the door realization struck - You were only here for a few days. You see your worried parents run to you and give you a hug, asking where you were and that they were about to call the police. But that wasn't the worst part. You watch as they pack their bags to go back to your hometown. You drop to the floor, crying because you didn't even give them your adress. But you remember you were supposed to meet at the lake. With no hesitation you run out of the door to the destination. With no luck. They aren't there. Still crying you run back and see the clock, your train is about to go. Your parents hand you your bag as you make your way out of the hotel, into town, to the train station. They have to force you into the train because you don't want to go. As you take a seat you immediately look out of the window and see your soulmate standing there. A happy, sad surprise. You both know what is happening and you don't want to let it happen. You lean your hand on the glass and watch as the other does the same thing. You both have the ring on and line it up with eachother. There is nothing much you can do. You mouth "I will find you" and the other nods as the train lets out a whistle and starts the engine. With tears in both of your eyes you look directly in their eyes. They mouth "i love you" for the last time and you reply with "me too" as the train slowly goes. You glace at them with sadness knowing you will probably never see them again. That's it - It's over. Loving will only hurt you. Love is a game you'll always lose. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ End of the story. Inspo: Cmbyn
