#datteos

the fact that even PLANNED to get to know isak and make a move but david was like “just gotta get through the next few weeks without forming any significant connections to another human soul, i can do that, np” and then matteo florenzi literally hit him like a truck and now he’s halfway to amsterdam giggling with his boyfriend and his heart is light and he didn’t see any of it coming at all !!!!

the evolution of s2 matteo time-traveling to the future and seeing himself with david is “oh a new guy joined our friend group” “oh he’s comfortable being physically affectionate with me like jonas” “oh no i’m clearly in unrequited love with him like i am with jonas, i’m such an idiot, will i ever learn” “uhhhhh.....” “oh my god. are we--” *tearing up* “maybe we’re hiding our relationship from our friends--oh, no, we just kissed in front of them and they were totally used to it” *more sniffles*

absolutely kills me how david wanted matteo so much he broke all his self-imposed rules to befriend him and kiss him and spend a night and a day in bed cuddling and talking with him,,,,,but like, he kept telling himself it was okay because matteo had a girlfriend, matteo didn’t want anything serious with him, this didn’t mean as much to him as it did to david. like the fact that that’s what he told himself to try and feel BETTER about what he was doing! but ofc it only made him feel WORSE because in his heart of hearts he wanted to be with matteo fully and completely and for matteo to want to be with him the same way. and then matteo tells him he dumped sara for david and how HAPPY that must have made him because matteo wants to be with him and cares about him more than his gf it’s exactly what he wanted to hear but he couldn’t really be happy about it because it meant matteo would want more from him, more that he couldn’t give, and that’s what made him decide to dump matteo for good and never talk to him again (which ofc made him feel Miserablest). like god the layersss the pining! but now ! he knows matteo is gay and only ever wanted him and he never has to go back to those negative thought patterns and trying to convince himself matteo doesn’t care because he Knows matteo loves him and most blessed of all he can REVEL in that knowledge and let it make him happy instead of being afraid of it !

ugh au where matteo gets blackmailed by amira into auditioning for the school play and gets cast as juliet opposite drama department Star david schreibner as romeo. matteo, who is closeted, is terrified of having been cast in the girl’s part and having to play a gay romance AND he already thought david was cute from all the plays he’s seen him in before,,,,thru angst and stage kisses and real kisses everything works out and by the time it’s the cast party matteo and david spend the whole night curled up on the sofa making out

absolutely kills me how david was like “it isn’t so bad, being alone” trying to convince himself and now he’s like hi i’m david and my hobbies include: holding hands, being cuddled, day-dreaming about the future when me and my boyfriend own a dog
