Chapter 7 - Confessions in the Dark

After the leak of Two Lovers went viral, the chaos was immediate, social media exploding with fan edits, theories, and comments about the undeniable chemistry between Aaliyah and Damiano, and while Aaliyah tried to stay away, keeping her distance, avoiding every possible encounter, Damiano felt the pull growing stronger with every step she took away from him, until one day during a recording session the door to a small studio room jammed, leaving them trapped together, the air thick with unspoken words and months of suppressed feelings, and Damiano, unable to hold it in any longer, stepped close, his voice low and urgent as he confessed everything he had been feeling, how Giorgia had confronted him and returned to Italy, how he hadn't planned to fall for Aaliyah, how every stolen glance and moment together had only made his emotions impossible to ignore, and Aaliyah, chest tightening, heart racing, tried to resist, telling him it was wrong, that she shouldn't be involved, but the sound of his voice, the intensity in his eyes, the heat radiating from him made every argument crumble, and when he whispered, "I'm in love with you," the room seemed to shrink around them, the world outside disappearing as the truth between them finally broke free, leaving them both trembling, hearts pounding, and on the edge of something neither could stop, neither could deny, and neither wanted to.
