(𝐛𝐨𝐲𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝!𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐨) damiano's covered in tattoos, wears eyeliner better than you, and showed up on a motorcycle the first time you met. your friends whispered he was trouble. your parents said he wasn’t "serious boyfriend material". your coworkers told you to be careful.

but behind the rockstar persona, there’s a man who listens when you talk. who sits up with you during your worst nights. who waits until you fall asleep before he lets his guard down. he’s not perfect—he’s intense, unpredictable, a little broken.

he makes you laugh in ways no one else does—because he sees you. not the perfect daughter, student, or coworker the world expects you to be. you let go with him. and slowly, he starts to believe in love again, too.

"do you feel kinda better now, cara?" he mumbles rubbing your arm– you're laying on your bed, cuddled up to him after a tough day, one call and he was there– as always.

you nod softly, against his shoulder. "better with you."
