I turn from him and look back at the cluster of buildings, one on top of the other. A beautiful and unique place to visit, but to live long term? “I don’t know about that,” I say. “This could be your life.” He spreads his arms out as if to encompass the whole of Cinque Terre. And him. I let out an uncomfortable laugh, unsure if he’s joking. “I’m not just going to move to a foreign country. I haven’t even finished high school yet.” “ Si. ” He slumps a little, but he’s still observing me closely, intently. “I would like things to be different.” “What do you mean?” “I like when you are here. Things feel, ah, bene. Good. Better.” I open my mouth to speak, but I’m at a complete loss how to react. Bruno stows the camera away again and moves to sit next to me, straddling the bench. The inside of his thigh brushes against my knee, his other leg dangerously close behind me, and I shift away so we’re not touching. He reaches for a section of my hair and twists it in his fingers. “I like you,” he says quietly.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Kristin Rae" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/kristin-rae/you-could-belong-here-he-says-his-tone-surprisingly-serious-i-turn/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/3eb/kristin-rae-2878_foreign-country_you-could-belong-here-he-says-his-tone-s_660835.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/3eb/kristin-rae-2878_foreign-country_you-could-belong-here-he-says-his-tone-s_660835.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/3eb/kristin-rae-2878_foreign-country_you-could-belong-here-he-says-his-tone-s_660835.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“You could belong here,” he says, his tone surprisingly serious.

Pippa, my cousin Bruno.” Bruno. The in-with-the-wrong-crowd Bruno. Divinely and supernaturally gorgeous Bruno. And he just winked at me. Not good. He closes the distance between us in two long strides of his tight white pants and says “ Piacere! ”--which I remember from my phrase book means “pleased to meet you”--before taking ahold of my shoulders and kissing each of my cheeks. His lips are on my cheeks. I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and want to die. It’s physically impossible for a face to be any redder. I try to say “ Piacere! ” back but only a squeaky noise escapes my lips. I raise my shirt just enough to hide behind and fake a coughing fit, waving with the other hand for him to leave the room. He laughs and mutters something in Italian as he walks off. Chiara closes the door. Way to make a great first impression on the sexy Italian. “What did you say to him?” I ask when I’ve recovered the ability to speak. “I told him that he should knock on doors that are closed. That you are American and do not lie on the beach with le tette out. You are private.” “ Le tette? What’s that?” My face pinks again. “My boobs?” “ Si. ” She sprawls across the bottom bunk. “I think it is sweet. Leaves room for the imagination.” “Um…thanks.” I finish getting dressed. “What did he say?” She laughs. “He said, ‘She will one day.’” My nose scrunches at the thought of baring it all on a beach towel in a foreign country, with Bruno and other guys who look like Bruno watching. I shudder. “Doubtful. There are some parts of me the sun just wasn’t meant to see.” Chiara rolls to her side and looks at me. “So you have never been swimming without clothes on?” “Skinny-dipping?” I smile as I stow my dirty clothes into my suitcase. “Well, the moon can handle those parts of me just fine.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Kristin Rae" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/kristin-rae/bruno-this-is-my-friend-pippa-pippa-my-cousin-bruno-bruno-the-in-with/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c32/kristin-rae-2878_first-impression_bruno-this-is-my-friend-pippa-pippa-my-c_1168266.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c32/kristin-rae-2878_first-impression_bruno-this-is-my-friend-pippa-pippa-my-c_1168266.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/c32/kristin-rae-2878_first-impression_bruno-this-is-my-friend-pippa-pippa-my-c_1168266.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Bruno, this is my friend Pippa.
