HOTEL CAESAR AUGUSTUS
capri, italy
september 8, 2024
sunday
3pm

cailee and i were doing a pilates session in the living room of my villa with a private trainer. i had no clue how lorena set this up, but that's why i love her, she gets things done.

i was currently lying flat on my back, sweat dripping down my forehead as i was struggling to keep up with the exercises. cailee, on the other hand, was handling them like a pro, her lithe and toned body moving with ease.

the private trainer was counting out the reps in quick, precise italian, encouraging us to push harder.

"just three more reps, you've got this," the trainer said, his accent thick. he stood next to me, watching my form carefully.

i gritted my teeth and forced myself to push through the burn in my muscles, completing the last three reps with a huff.

just then lorena walked in, her eyes glued to her notebook which i recognized to be her book full of my schedule.

"perfect timing," i said, sitting up and wiping my forehead with a towel.

she looked up and smiled. "i need to run tonight's plans by you." she said, already flipping through the pages.

i nodded, signaling for her to go ahead.

she cleared her throat, starting to read off the list. "you have a phone interview with billboard at five, then hair and makeup at six. after that, you have a club party to attend at seven and then dinner at nine. you should be back at the hotel by ten-thirty." she closed her notebook and looked at me. "does all of that sound alright?"

"dinner at nine? with who?" i questioned.

she smirked. "didn't you see the note?" she said as she grabbed a letter that was on my entry table which she handed me.

it was a hand written letter from theo, inviting me to dinner at nine. i smiled softly and shook my head. "i didn't see that, i'm glad i did now."

cailee was stretching in the background and i could faintly hear the trainer packing up supplies in his bag.

"dinner at nine with theo? that's perfect." i said as i folded up the letter carefully and placed it on the coffee table. "now this billboard interview...makes zero sense. i'm not a musician."

"i know you don't understand why billboard is wanting to interview you," lorena stated, "but they're one of the few magazines that always gives positive press, so i told them we would do it." she then looked at her notebook once more. "oh and! sabrina carpenter wants you to be in her new music video, if you could give her a call."

my eyebrows shot up in surprise. "sabrina wants me in her music video?" i asked, shocked at the news. "that's great!" i said as i thought about my good friend, sabrina, though i was a bit surprised by her choice of picking me.

"don't look so surprised. you're hot right now, everyone wants you." lorena said.

i smiled slightly, her words bringing up my confidence. "well, hot or not, i'm still surprised. but there's no way i'm saying no. i'll reach out to her people right now about it. and as for the makeup and hair..."

lorena nodded. "now get showered and make that call. interview is at five!" she called out before leaving.

i let out a huff and leaned back onto my yoga mat, feeling tired and sore already. cailee stood up and offered me her hand, "big day ahead of you." she said.

"tell me about it," i said, taking her hand and letting her help me up.

the pilates session had definitely wiped me out, and on top of that i still had the interview, hair, makeup, the club, and then dinner with theo to get through.

i thanked the trainer who had already been paid before he left. cailee then turned to me, "i'm gonna go to my villa, okay?"

i nodded. "sounds good."

she smiled before heading out the door, waving goodbye.

i let out a small sigh and looked around my living room. the sun was shining in through the windows, casting warm light over everything.

i grabbed my phone and made the call to sabrina's team. "hello, this is kamila kardashian calling about a request that was made for me to appear on sabrina's upcoming music video."

i spent the next ten minutes talking with the team about the details of the video, the concept, and how things would work. it would shoot in three days, causing my trip to be cut short.

after a bit of time to think i assured them i'd be there, and after we ended the call, i headed to the bathroom to take a shower, getting ready for the long day ahead.

6:15pm

as i sat in the chair, i looked at myself in the mirror as a few different pairs of hands styled my hair and did my makeup. they were all working quickly and efficiently, wanting to get me ready in time to get to the club by seven.

the hair stylist spoke in low tones as they brushed through my hair. i couldn't understand anything they were saying, but i felt like i was hearing a lot of the word perfetto, which i assumed was a good thing. the makeup artist was focused on my face, applying makeup on my skin.

they continued to do their work in precise, practiced movements. one was focused on my hair, while the other carefully did my makeup. after a few more minutes, they stepped back and looked at me.

"finito," the makeup artist said, nodding at me in the mirror.

i looked at myself in the mirror once more, taking in my hair and makeup. the hairstyle was sleek yet casual. the makeup was minimal. i smirked confidently.

"thank you guys so much." i said to them.

they smiled and nodded, gathering up their supplies as i got up from the chair. the clock read 6:20pm, meaning it was almost time to get into my dress. i headed back to the living room where lorena was waiting for me.

she was on her phone as i came out. she looked up, her eyes widening at the sight of me.

"wow," she said. "you look amazing." she stood up and looked me up and down. "the club won't know what hit them."

VW CLUB CAPRI
capri, italy
7pm

being at the vw club wasn't anything new to me. i had partied at clubs in almost every major city of the world.

but tonight, while everyone in the vip area was indulging in alcohol and drugs, i was not. normally i didn't mind letting loose and getting a little wild. but tonight, i had plans with a certain someone.

the music was blasting and the energy in the club was high. i was sitting with a small group of people in my vip area, sipping on a glass of water. i hadn't even touched any of the alcohol that had been provided to me. i didn't want to be drunk for my dinner, i wanted to be fully alert and present.

from next to me, one of the girls spoke up. "you know...i've heard about you, you're kamila kardashian."

i smiled and let out an awkward laugh, "that's my name."

"yeah, but i thought you were like some party girl. you haven't even taken a sip of anything but that water this whole night." she said before whispering, "unless it's really vodka in there."

i chuckled slightly. "no vodka, i promise," i said, shaking my head. "just plain water. i just don't feel in the mood to drink tonight."

"oh come on, don't you want to have any fun?" the girl asked, her voice a bit tipsy from the alcohol she had been drinking. "live a little, dance a little. you'll have a good time."

i shook my head again, feeling a little annoyed. "i am having fun. i don't need alcohol to have fun." i replied, trying to keep the irritation out of my voice.

the girl continued to pout and looked around the vip area. "everyone else is having a good time." she said, gesturing subtly to the other people around us. "don't you want to be like them?"

i followed her gesture to the people around us. everyone was drinking and smoking, their eyes a bit glossy and their words coming out a bit slurred.

i looked back at the girl. "like i said," i said firmly. "i don't need alcohol to have a good time. and honestly, i don't want to be like them." i then got up from the section. "excuse me," i said as i headed to the bathroom.

as i walked through the club, i could feel people's eyes on me. people that i didn't recognize would whisper discreetly to one another, obviously knowing exactly who i was.

i reached the bathroom door and slipped inside, shutting the door behind me. i let out a small sigh and looked at myself in the mirror.

i had to admit, i looked good. the long dress i had on hugged my figure perfectly, showcasing my curves. my hair and makeup had been done just right. i'd be stupid if i said i hadn't been getting tons of attention in the vip area, but i only wanted attention from one person. theo.

i pulled out my phone and texted him.

MESSAGES

theo

kamila
still on for dinner?

theo
you know i wouldn't
miss it for the world.

kamila
good! i'm looking
forward to it.

~~

i smiled knowing i had a dinner to look forward to made dealing with this club a bit more bearable, even if it was just a little.

i fixed my hair up a bit and reapplied my lipgloss before unlocking the door and exiting the bathroom.

as i walked out from the bathroom and back into the club, i saw a large group of people making their way toward me. i felt my stomach drop slightly as i noticed the way people were looking at me. it was like they were about to ask me for something.

as i walked out, i could feel the buzz of the party all around me. people were drinking, smoking, and dancing all around me, but i pushed through the crowd and made my way back to the vip area.

i saw the girl who had been bothering me earlier with a group of her friends, talking about me and shooting glances at me. i rolled my eyes and sat back down in my section, scrolling through my phone.

i was scrolling through various texts and emails when the other girls in my area spoke up, "i can't believe you're being so anti social, we're all having fun but you're just on your phone and not even drinking."

i looked up from my phone, annoyed. they had no idea that i wasn't drinking because i had plans with someone for dinner.

"i'm not being anti social," i said, trying to keep my irritation at bay. "i'm just busy. i have plans later."

LO SFIZIO RESTARAUNT
capri, italy
9:15pm

it was a bit past nine when i walked into the restaurant. it was a slightly busy night, with a few couples sitting at different tables.

i told the hostess my name and she nodded, leading me through the restaurant to a secluded table. my heart fluttered in my chest when i saw theo. he was sitting at the table, looking incredibly handsome in his black button down.

"i'm so sorry i'm late, there was so much traffic and none of my texts were sending to you." i cried out to him.

he smiled in response, standing up and pulling me in for a quick kiss. "i'm not mad," he said, his voice low and smooth. "i knew you'd be here eventually."

i let out a sigh of relief, my initial feeling of anxiety and stress fading away. i sat down across from him, feeling suddenly self conscious. he was staring at me intently, his eyes filled with adoration.

"the day i've had..." i said with a sigh full of exhaustion.

he chuckled. "i can tell. you look a bit stressed." he said, his eyes moving from my face down to my body. his eyes moved over the clingy, black abstract dress i was wearing.

"i have some news." i said as i sipped the wine infront of me, that he ordered prior to my arrival.

he raised his eyebrows and leaned back slightly, gesturing for me to continue.

i took another sip of wine and set the glass down. "i've agreed to be in a music video for sabrina carpenter, who's my good friend...and it shoots in a few days back in los angeles, so i have to cut my trip a little short."

he nodded, processing the information. "i see," he said, his tone suddenly a bit serious. "when do you leave?"

"the shoot is in three days, so i'll probably leave in two days." i said, observing him closely to get a sense of what he was thinking.

he took a deep breath and reached for his own glass of wine, taking a long sip. there was a moment of silence between us before he spoke up.

"i'm going to miss you," he said, his voice suddenly softer. "i'll be here in capri for two more weeks and then back in los angeles." he admitted. he reached across the table and grabbed my hand, intertwining our fingers. "i was hoping to see more of you while we were here." he added.

"i know, i know." i said, rubbing my thumb against the back of his hand. "i was hoping to spend more time with you too...we can spend time together in los angeles."

he nodded, but i could tell he was still slightly disappointed by the news. he was quiet for another moment, before speaking.

"you look incredible, by the way." he said, his eyes scanning my body once more. "i don't think i've told you that yet."

i gave a small laugh "oh yeah? you like it?" i teased with a cheeky smile.

he nodded, his eyes fixated on me. "of course i like it. i love it. you look gorgeous." he said, his voice dropping lowly. "that dress especially."

i smirked. "i'm glad you like it." i said, my eyes moving up to his face. "i wanted to look good for you tonight."

his grip on my hand tightened a bit. i could hear the shift in his tone when he responded. "well, you definitely succeeded in that." he said, his voice dropping deep. "how about this? let's make the best of the two days you have left, yeah?"

i felt a shiver down my spine at the tone of his voice. i couldn't help but feel a little aroused. his eyes were dark and full of lust.

"i'd like that." i answered, my voice coming out slightly shaky.
