{ WHEN IT HURTS }
“Wait,did you cry?” Valentino suddenly asked and Vanessa broke the hug instantly
“What do you mean?” She scoffed and wiped her tears
“I was right……”
“No! A crazy fly entered my eyes when I was running to you,why would I cry because of you? Such a joke” Vanessa rolled her eyes and Valentino smiled
“Geez,you’re more weak than I thought” She said
“No I’m not,I just wanted to see if you care about me” Valentina muttered
“Are you insane? What if they killed you?” She snapped
“Seeing that you care about me was the best feeling in the world,next time I will fight back,see me as your knight in shinning amour from now on” Valentino said and Vanessa let out a chuckle but then she thought of Giovanni and sighed out
Valentino opened his car door for her and she entered
“Wanna have dinner with me?” Valentino asked when he got in
“No,I’m going home” Vanessa muttered,staring out of the window.
“Are you okay?” Valentino asked
“Yeah” Vanessa answered shortly without looking at him,Valentino decided to stop asking questions as he stepped on the speed

ALS≈GREEN MANSION
“Got ya!” Ace screamed excitedly,he was playing game with Pierce who was quiet since he’s losing already
They were both interrupted when the door opened,Pierce turned and Giovanni walked in rather too quiet and cool
“What’s wrong? Did someone died again?” Ace asked,not taking his eyes from the game
Giovanni ignored them and sat down with a loud sigh
“Whoa whoa,that sounds too loud” Ace said and dropped the video controller
“What happened?” Pierce asked but Giovanni remained quiet
“Can you say something at least?” Ace groaned
“She’s mad at me” Giovanni muttered
Pierce and Ace exchanged glances and faced him at once
“Vanessa?” They both asked at a time and Giovanni nodded
“Why?” Ace asked
“I just….hate the fact that she got close to Valentino,I’m going crazy already” Giovanni muttered and got up
“Are you seriously in love with her?” Pierce asked
“Is it obvious?” Giovanni asked
“Wow!!” They screamed,giving him the teasing looks
“My two thousand dollars” Pierce faced Ace immediately
“Oh please,can you be patient at least?” Ace scoffed
Giovanni raised his brows
“Wait,don’t tell me you placed a bet on me” He said
“What do you think?” Pierce smirked
“Are you crazy?! Is it that obvious?!” Giovanni yelled
“So f**king obvious,so when are you asking her out?” Ace asked
“Ask her out?” Giovanni blinked
“Wait,you’re not planning to tell her?” Pierce asked unbelievably
“I’m scared…..what if she rejects me?” Giovanni muttered
“Gosh,so you’re going to keep it without telling her? Are you that dumb?” Ace groaned
Giovanni run his fingers through his hair
“I’m afraid she might start avoiding me…I might just die” He muttered and started going upstairs
“Just tell her your feelings dude! Stop being a fool!” Pierce called after him
Giovanni said nothing and went into his room.
“My money” Pierce faced Ace
“Are you that poor? Have you been waiting for this?” Ace asked,turning back to the game
“Hey,do you wanna die young?” Pierce asked in a soft voice and Ace giggled
“Stop” he said
Pierce’s phone rang and he checked it beside him but then ignored it
“Who’s it?” Ace asked
“No one” Pierce immediately said
“Lemme see….”
“Noo!” Pierce shouted and took his phone before Ace could
“Wow,are you in a secret relationship or something?” He scoffed
Pierce turned off his phone before sitting down again.

WHITE MANSION
Valentino entered the living room with a smiley face,Reed raised his head up from the laptop in front of him. His eyes widened when he saw Valentino
“Hey! What the f**k happened to your lips?” He asked and almost got up but when Valentino smiled,he stopped
“What’s funny? You got hurt” He said
“I think it worth it” Valentino smirked and sat down
“What do you mean?” Reed raised his brows
“Some bastards tried touching Vanessa and I stopped them…so they beat me up” Valentino grinned
Reed moved closer to him and touched his forehead trying to check his temperature
“Are you by any chance…..going insane?” He asked gently but Valentino only smiled
“You don’t even know how my heart raced when I saw the worries in her eyes” Valentino touched his chest
“So are you saying you decided not to fight back just to see her worried look?” Reed asked and Valentino smirked
“Are you crazy? What if they killed you?” Reed asked
“Of course they wouldn’t” Valentino grinned
“Wow,I think queen V got you too bad” Reed scoffed
Valentino bite his lips when he remembered how she hugged him tightly with tears in her eyes
“Sexy as f**k” he muttered,looking so lost
Reed shook his head and turned back to his work
Terence suddenly appeared with the banana milk Vanessa gave Valentino at the rooftop and Valentino frowned
“Where did you get that?” He asked
“Your room” Terence replied and sipped from it
“Stop!!!!” Valentino screamed and Terence choked as he spit it out
Reed also looked up in shock
Valentino rushed to Terence and grabbed it from him
“Is there poison in it?” Terence asked
“No” Valentino replied
“Then why the f**k are you screaming?” Reed asked
“Vanessa gave me this,I’m not planning to drink this any moment from now. Stop going into my room uninvited from now on” Valentino scoffed and walked away
Terence and Reed followed him with their eyes with confusion written all over their faces,they turned to each other
“Is something wrong with him?” Terence asked
“Ever heard of Vanessa virus?” Reed asked and Terence laughed
“Vanessa Virus,so f**king accurate” Terence said
Reed kept quiet and continue his work
“What are you doing looking so serious anyway?” Terence asked
“You can’t see,we are opponents” Reed said
“Oh” Terence chuckled and turned back
Reed looked up,staring at Terence till he was out of sight. He remembered how he saw him with Gigi in school earlier and he sighed,he didn’t know when he closed his laptop,he used his facecap and walked out of the mansion.
He dialed Gigi’s number,it rang twice but never got an answer till he got to their mansion. He tried again and this time she answered
“Hey Reed” she said on the phone
Reed said no word,he only stared at his phone in silence
“Reed? Reed” Gigi called repeatedly
“Can you….come out for a minute?” He finally asked
“Wait,you’re here?” Gigi asked and Reed nodded as if she can see him
“I will be right there” Gigi said and hanged up
Reed bite his lips nervously,minutes later Gigi came out and was quite surprised when she saw him
“I thought it was a prank” She smiled
Reed scanned her with his eyes,she had no makeup on but still looking as hot as f**k. The pyjama she was wearing even made things worse,he was so lost staring at her
“Back to earth” Gigi snapped her fingers in his face and he looked at her face
“Why are you here?” She asked
“I missed you” Reed replied and Gigi grinned
“Really? Why does that sound like a lie? Are you here to ask if I’ve broken up with my boyfriend again?” Gigi asked and Reed chuckled
“I already promised to wait” He said
“Come in,you’re not planning to stand there forever right?” She said
“No” Reed immediately grabbed her hand and she faced him back
“I need to go back,I just….missed your face,I couldn’t wait till tomorrow” he said
“Oh” Gigi mumbled with a surprised face
“Wanna hang out with me tomorrow?? After our classes” Reed said
“I don’t know……”
“Can’t you spare me some time too? It’s always you and Terence” He cut in
“It’s nothing,He’s my friend…”
“What about me?” Reed asked
“Of course we are also friends” Gigi smiled
“I don’t want to be just your friend” Reed said
“Huh?” Gigi asked
“Goodnight” Reed muttered and kissed her cheek

He turned immediately and ran off,leaving her speechless. She opened the door and went in.
As Reed ran all the way back to the white mansion,he saw a car driving out of the school,he stopped running and watched closely
‘Is that not prof Kelly’s car?’ He thought,wondering why he’s just leaving the school by this time but then,Maybe he came back for something so he waved the thought off and continue running.

Virgil took his phone from the bed and the first thing he saw on his screen was Lotus’s message
“Gosh!” He groaned and fell on the bed before opening it
💌 Can you answer my call at least? I can’t sleep
He sat up on the bed
“I think I’m in trouble” he muttered and almost dialed her number when the door suddenly opened and Reed came in,he immediately hid his phone
“Hey” Reed said
“What are you doing here?” Virgil asked
“I was wondering why you refused to come out of your room……”
“I’m quite busy” Virgil replied
“Seriously?” Reed asked again
“Yeah” Virgil muttered
Reed nodded and went out of the room,Virgil immediately went to lock his door before sighing out. He returned to the bed and dialed Lotus’s number
“Uncle Virgil!” She screamed excitedly
“Can you at least sleep now? Goodnight” Virgil said and almost hanged up
“Wait!” Lotus called and he groaned
“Are you angry about the kiss??….”
“No!! Can you stop talking about it huh? Don’t tell anyone,it was a….”
“Mistake?” Lotus cut in
Virgil roughed his hair
“No,I’m just saying….forget about it okay? Please” He said
“I can’t,I’ve been thinking about it all day” Lotus replied and Virgil almost screamed out
“Fine…but make sure you don’t tell anyone okay?” He said
“If you promise to kiss me again” Lotus said
“Go to sleep” Virgil muttered and he heard Lotus giggling
“Goodnight uncle Virgil” She said and he hanged up
Virgil groaned and threw his phone on the bed
“She’s going to be the end of me” he muttered but then when he remembered the kiss,he smiled
‘No Virgil,stop’ he cautioned himself

NEXT DAY
As soon as the lecturer walked out of the hall,the students started leaving one after the other,they just finished their last class for the day.
“This is just 2pm babes,We still have enough time to go crazy!” Gigi screamed and Quinn chuckled
“Do you have any plan?” She asked
“No” Gigi said and Quinn laughed
“Any plan?” Gigi faced Angelique and Erica
“Let’s just spend time together” Angelique said
“Where? Our mansion or yours” Gigi asked
“Ours” Quinn immediately said,she looked up when Finn walked out of the hall with his friends without even glancing at her,Otto looked back and winked at her,she smiled and turned back to the girls
“You just blushed” Gigi said
“No” Quinn denied immediately
“So you like him?” Gigi asked
“I didn’t blush!” Quinn yelled and they laughed
Vanessa on the other hand was focused on her phone,she sighed out when she found out that Giovanni is yet to reply her messages from last night
“Actually….we have something to tell you guys” Angelique said
“What is it?” Quinn asked
“Let me guess” Gigi smirked and Quinn looked at her
“You two are in love” Gigi whispers and Angelique’s eyes widened
“What?!” Quinn screamed in shock
“How did you…..”
“Erica was obvious…but I didn’t know about Angelique anyway. I knew how Erica stare at you was sexy” Gigi winked and Angelique blushed
“Wow,so I’ve been living with a bisexual without a single hint? Gosh,let’s just end it here” Quinn grabbed her bag
“Wait” Erica stopped her
“I’m sorry okay?? I was trying so hard to control it…..”
“Even when you know you can’t?” Quinn asked
“I’m sorry Quinn” Erica muttered and hugged her
“You two are really annoying,you think I’m gonna yell at you or what?” Quinn scoffed
“Sorry” Angelique muttered
“Awwwwn” Gigi pouted and then faced Vanessa
“Hey,what the f**k are you doing that much?!” She half yelled and Vanessa looked up
“Oh,sorry. Don’t worry I heard everything okay?” Vanessa said and faced Erica
“Congrats,you two look good together” She smiled and stood up
“Where are you going?” Quinn asked
“Professor Kelly want to have a talk with Giovanni,Valentino and me” She said,picking up her bag
“Oh,so you want us to wait for you?” Erica asked
“No,he said he left too early yesterday so I’m afraid the meeting might take longer than expected,leave without me” She said and went out of the hall
“Let’s go girls” Gigi said and they all walked out of the hall
Gigi bumped into Reed and he smiled at her
“Ready?” He asked
“Oh Reed” Gigi muttered and faced the girls
“I’m sorry” she pouted
“Sure,bye” Quinn winked at her
Reed grabbed her hand and they both left together
“Where’s Vanessa?” Reed asked
“Prof Kelly’s office” Gigi replied
“Isn’t it early for any feedback?’ Reed asked
“I think he said he would leave early today just like yesterday” Gigi said and Reed faced her
“Yesterday? He said he left the school early?” He asked and Gigi nodded
‘But….it was him last night right?? Or maybe not?’ He thought and opened the car for her before getting in.

PROFESSOR KELLY’S OFFICE
“Good job guys” Prof Kelly smiled out after the one hour talk
“You can go” he added
Giovanni was the first to go out,followed by Vanessa and then Valentino
“Vanni” Vanessa called but he didn’t wait
She almost went after him but was grabbed by Valentino.
“Let him go” He muttered
“Stop it” Vanessa said softly and moved away from his grip
“I will talk to you later okay?” She said and ran after Giovanni. Valentino walked after her slowly
“Giovanni!! If you don’t stop then I really won’t talk to you again!” She shouted and Giovanni stopped walking immediately
Vanessa sighed out and walked over to him
“Are you really ignoring me?” She asked
Giovanni sighed
“I’m sorry….”
“You saw my calls and messages” Vanessa snapped
Giovanni said nothing,he only stared at her intensely,it was as if she was the only thing that matters in the whole world at that moment. From her pretty eyes down to her red lips which almost make him go gaga anytime he stares at them
“Vanni?” Vanessa called
“F**k” he cursed and grabbed her hand
“Where are we going……” She didn’t finish when he dragged her into the nearest office,he pulled her against the wall at once and smashed his lips on hers.
Vanessa gasped in shock,she tried moving but he kissed her even more deeply and slowly she closed her eyes and started kissing him back. Giovanni held her waist and pulled her closer to himself as he devoured her lips deliciously making her breathless.
Valentino got to the office door and his eyes almost popped out of the sockets when he saw them,his whole body began shaking as he watched the scene in front of him.
Giovanni broke the kiss and Vanessa looked up still in shock
“Vanni……”
“Will you be my girlfriend?” Giovanni cut in and her eyes widened
“Huh?”
“Will you be my girlfriend?” Giovanni asked again
“I….” She stopped when Giovanni went for her lips once more
Valentino swallowed hard and almost rushed into the office to tear them apart and punch Giovanni hard on the face but he stopped when Vanessa kissed him back….again.
“Nessa” he called out faintly, taking slow steps back,he was almost in tears as he stared at them before walking away.
By the time he entered his car,his tears were already dropping.
