-Part forty-

Zara's pov

Saying I'm sore when I wake up is an absolute understatement

The man wasn't lying when he said I would regret saying he can do anything...well I don't regret shit but my body is telling me other stories

I also realized on our date Enzo said the next person he has sex with he's planning on spending the rest of his life with...so does he still feel that way?

I don't have time to think too much into it because I see Enzo stir in his sleep and start waking up

"Good morning," Enzo says in a raspy sleepy voice

"morning "I whisper

"How are you feeling?" He asks and I can tell he's genuine with the question

"Really sore but fine," I say

"I'm sorry, I did say you would regret giving me the power to do anything" he smiles weakly

"Well I don't regret shit but whatever my body will get over the pain" I roll my eyes

And he laughs

"I'm guessing dance practice with me is canceled today?" He laughs

"That would be an understatement" i smile while laughing

He gets up and takes me with him to the bathroom

"YIKES" I yelp when he placed me on the counter

We start brushing our teeth

He laughs "last time this happened we were in Hawaii" he shakes his head

"I really wanted to tell you I love you in the bathroom but felt like it was the wrong moment" he smiles weakly

"Yeah you have no idea how many times I wanted to scream out I love you but I didn't want you to think I was saying it because you were making me feel good or wiping my tears away and pep-talking me," I say sighing

"I get that...but don't think for one second I'll stop doing all that," he says

"I'll always be your biggest supporter and best friend...apart from Ava of course" he smiles

"Don't tell Ava but your definitely my best friend" i whisper

"She is to its just she's a different kind of best friend to you" I laugh

"it's our little secret," he says kissing my lips slowly, i cup his face with my hands pulling him closer

Because I can.

It's so weird to finally kiss him

But it's the best feeling

I then wrap my arms around his neck and legs around his waist

He picks me up

And he leads us downstairs

"So how long are we staying in Italy for?" I ask as Mia, him, and I are eating breakfast

"A bit over a week," he says

And I nod

"I just want my parents to be able to see mia a little more, and I want to show you around Italy" he smiles

And I return the smile

"I'm a little nervous for the ball, I mean it's a real ball, Like in the books I read I just can't believe it's real" I sigh

He chuckles "it's very real sweetheart, and I go to those dances almost every year but never have taken anyone with me except Mia, so trust me when I say theres nothing you need to be nervous about " he smiles
