So we start off our night at a bar called Kikuya, and Clemente and I arrive to the table at the same time. I again get the slightly closer Ciao kisses and we sit down next to each other. Then throughout the night we're able to talk and talk a lot. also talk close together. So after a while this idiotic girl, V, comes over and is all over him. Just like she has been since she met him. I just look at everyone else like is she clueless?? He has not once returned your advances, it sure as hell aint gonna happen tonight now that I'm showing interest. So since I don't want to vom over everyone I go to get some air and everyone else is like WHAT? go in and get your man, get rid of the competition. But I'm just like, ha, theres no competition there. I mean if he wanted that a. i dont want him and b. he's had plenty of opportunity he hasn't taken so... I'm fine. Then he comes out a few mins later, with her tagging along of course, and I just laugh to myself because she is being so pathetic. We then decide we're heading to Lion's Fountain.
Before this we say goodbye to a bunch of people going home and unfortunately some of them were some of my very close friends on the trip and I already miss them. Like Audrey, my gay husband, who is a whole other post in herself but that was really hard and took forever because we're all girls and we were like hug.. ok.. no wait HUG! blah blah
So we head to Lion's Fountain and he disappears for like 10 mins. I don't know where he went. But when he comes back he sits next to me to listen to videos I took of him singing and we're pretty close then finally the last lose end of extra people drops off and its just the two girls, their host brother, a real brother visiting, Clemente and me. 5 people. Nice and small. We head to Santa Croce steps, our fav, and we talk for maybe half an hour more. We get ready to say goodbyes and my first one was to Clemente, and while I have him in my arms reach I say 'dame un baccio' and he gives me a kiss on the corner of my mouth. So I return with a kiss on the cheek. After that for some reason all the goodbyes hit me and I have a mini breakdown. But then we finally all go our own way, the 2 friends and the 2 brothers, then Clemente and I.
As we start walking he asks where I live and I tell him near Piazza Beccaria and he responds, 'do you want a ride?' Now when we were outside of the first bar we had been asking for moped rides and he said no so I was confused and asked 'on what?' 'the moped' 'do you have an extra helmet?' 'Yes i do, I just didn't want everyone on the moped' understandable. So we get me a helmet thats totally motocross racing type. He figures out how to clasp it on and we're good to go. So we're on the moped riding to my house, I've got one hand around him and one gripping the moped. It's not too scary since it's late with minimal traffic so everything is nice.
Then we get to my corner and we're sitting on the bike, I'm trying to get my helmet off and I cant. He goes.. 'get off' so we get off and he unbuckles it for me and then takes his off and he's like don't tell Adrienne (another girl that wanted a moped ride. she's great). She'll get really upset and jealous. And we ciao kiss again but we don't seperate. Then comes the stare in eachothers eyes then to the lips then back up to the eyes moment before he kisses me. We kiss for like 20 seconds and it was fantastic. We then separate to kiss one or two times more and I make the decision to go before I never leave. So I squeeze his arm and say I'll visit. Because it's true. I'm coming back to Firenze while I'm in London and I'll see him and the friends.
Then when he turns the corner to leave I wave and it was pretty much storybook amazingness.
