✧ WARNINGS ♡ None
✧ SYNOPSIS ♡ Nathalia and Bojan have been friends for a long time but it isn't until Eurovision that it blossoms into something more.

    NATHALIA BOPPED HER head to the beat of the music playing, dancing with the Norwegian-Italian that had become one of her best friends. She had been able to come to Eurovision in Liverpool and got to meet a lot of people because of her best friend and crush, Bojan Cvjetićanin. He had surprised her with the question and there was no way that she wouldn't turn him down; it ended up being one of the best decisions.

    Everyone had been so nice and welcomed her with open arms. She enjoyed the whole experience and it wasn't something that she would forget. Through this though, she felt as if her and Bojan had gotten even closer, if that was even possible. They had begun flirting more and it was so much that other contestants had started a bet on when they thought the two would finally get together and how it would happen.

    Of course, no one ever told the two, but it was public knowledge that Nathi and Bojan were meant to be; they would always fawn over each other and their friends found it to be amusing. At this point though, everyone was begging for someone to make a move. This was Liverpool and it was now or never, right? Alessandra seemed to think so as she hadn't shut up about wanting to push them together, to get them to hold hands or kiss or something.

    Watching them interact was like watching a romance movie where the two leads didn't confess until the end, which was exhausting sometimes since she was so invested. She wasn't the only one who felt this way though. She had talked to Kris about trying to set them up and he was all for it, wanting it to happen for years. Bojan and Nathalia always danced around each other when it came to their feelings, which had become obvious.

    Alessandra Mele glanced over and saw that the Slovenian's eyes were trained on her friend which almost made her smirk. She felt like this was the perfect time to get them to do something. They were all at a party to celebrate another Eurovision, it being just for contestants and their friends. She turned her attention back to Nathi, who had noticed as well.

    "You know, he loves you." She revealed.

    The curly haired girl shook her head and looked confused. "What? No, he doesn't. He is my best friend."

    The Italian gave her an 'oh really' type of look. "We both know there's more to it! You love him too. Neither of you can stop flirting or simping over each other. Everyone has noticed and we all think it's time for you guys to start dating."

    "I—," she went to defend herself but she was cut off.

    "Before you say anything, I have already talked to him and Kris was supposed to as well. He admitted how he felt to me so I had everything confirmed. You guys just have to stop being so scared because at the end of the day, this will be a good thing." The dark haired girl had this hopeful gleam in her eye since she hoped this would be the push that Nathi needed.

    The H/C haired girl tucked some of her hair behind her ear when it got in her face, turning to look at the Cvjetićanin. "Are you sure Lessa? I just don't want to ruin anything."

    She froze when Bojan started walking in their direction, turning her attention back to the Norwegian with wide eyes. "He's coming over here. What do I do?"

    The Mele laughed and shook her head. "Just be yourself! Trust me, I'm right about this so just get your man. If you need me for anything, I'll be dancing with Luke and Elen."

    Alessandra walked in the opposite direction to find the two, leaving Nathalia to fend for herself. It was her best friend so why was she this nervous? He stood in front of her with his famous smile, the one that made her feel like she could melt.

    "I feel like I haven't talked to you all night." The Slovenian quickly mentioned.

    "Yeah, I'm sorry. I've been with Lessa and earlier we were with Alika and Jere." She felt the need to apologize even though she knew he wouldn't mind.

    "No need to apologize, I totally get it. I'm so happy that you're having a good time with our new friends. Thank you for coming with me and experiencing this with me. You have truly helped me through this." Bojan's words were genuine.

    "Of course, I wouldn't want to miss this. It was good for both of us. Even though the band didn't win, I think that this was such an important step in your career. I feel lucky to have gotten to be here with you." Nathalia could feel her chest getting all warm and fuzzy inside the most she heard his voice.

    It always seemed to happen and she was left with the feeling of wanting more. She did not realize her feelings the first time she felt that way but it eventually became clearer to her. Now, she was so far gone. She couldn't ever think straight when she was around the taller male. He was always so sweet and the two flirted more than anything, especially in recent days.

    He was always teasing her about her height but would always make it clear that he didn't mean anything by it. In turn, Nathi was able to tease him about being taller than her. It was just their thing honestly. He would get slightly protective when anyone else would tease her like that, which no one ever expected until it happened.

    Bojan Cvjetićanin was irrevocably in love with his best friend and he was careful with what he did around her because of it. Not in the sense that he didn't want to act silly in front of her but in the way that he wanted to keep his emotions at bay, never wanting to ruin their friendship. That's something that the two of them shared, although neither had caught on.

    However, he finally had the courage to do something about his feelings after being encouraged by both Kris and Alessandra. It was something he had wanted to do for months, years even.

    "You're always so supportive of me and it warms my heart. I came over here because I wanted to tell you something; it's something that I've wanted to do for a while but never really knew how to." His words scared Nathi for a second since she didn't know what to expect, but that went away with his next statement.

    Bojan took a deep breath. "I'm just going to come right out and say it, I love you. I've loved you this whole time and I can't ever find it in myself to stop. We're best friends but I want to be more. I want to be able to hug you, hold your hand, kiss you. You're like a light that I never want to go out and you bring out the best in me."

    Nathalia felt a tear slide down her cheek, processing each word. She didn't say anything at first though, instead moving to wrap her arms around his taller frame. His heart sped up and he returned the affection with open arms.

    "I love you too!" Her voice was loud enough so that he could hear her.

    He kissed the top of her head before getting her to look up at him, their eyes meeting and seeing nothing but pure love. He leaned down to let their lips touch, the two sharing a kiss that had fireworks going off in Nathi's stomach, as cheesy as that sounded.

    Their friends had full attention on the two but they didn't care as they were in their own little world.

    "Would you like to dance with me?" Bojan had to ask, needing to do something to let his energy out. Dancing together was one of those things that they did often but this time it was different, everyone this was different in the best possible ways.

    Nathalia nodded and the male started swaying his body, arms still wrapped around the shorter girl. They spent the rest of the night hugging, dancing, and just as close to one another as possible; but they wouldn't have had it any other way.
