Chapter 10 - ATTENTION

             ••••••

The hug only lasted for a minute when they suddenly heard the door bell,Vanessa pulled Valentino's arms down from her waist and moved away from him. 

"Anybody home!!" Gigi screamed but stopped on her track when she saw them

"Oh wow,what did I miss?" She smirked and winked at Vanessa who rolled her eyes

"Hey V Tucker,so good to see you here" Gigi said sarcastically

"I was about leaving" Valentino said,packing his stuffs

"Bye" he muttered

"Yeah bye" Gigi grinned,staring at Valentino's back till he was out of the house.

"Pumpkin!!!" Gigi screamed and tried jumping on Vanessa

"Gigi not now please" Vanessa immediately said 

"Tell everything....."

"Nothing happened,what the f**k are you even thinking?!" Vanessa snapped

"Come on" Gigi pouted

"Fine....I left my laptop here so we had to just come back" Vanessa muttered

"Then??" Gigi raised her brows

"He hugged me" Vanessa muttered

"Don't tell me you pushed him away" Gigi said 

"Now I regret not doing that,I actually told him to hold me tight!!!!" Vanessa broke into an imaginary tears and Gigi couldn't control her laughter

"How was it? Warm?" She asked

"Stop it" Vanessa scoffed

"Okay choose one,Giovanni's hug or Valentino's hug...."

"Giovanni of course,he gives the best hugs" Vanessa smiled

"Oh wow,she's blushing" Gigi said and Vanessa chuckled

"Do you really like him?" She asked

"Let's forget it,gosh my head" Vanessa muttered and touched her forehead

"Headache?" Gigi asked and Vanessa nodded

"Do you want me to wash your hair?" Gigi asked as they went upstairs 

"Yeah please" Vanessa replied

••

Valentino just drove out of the mansion when he got a call from Selena and he answered immediately.

"Kiddo" Selena's voice came on 

"Hey baby" Valentino smiled

"Come over right now if you don't want me in that school of yours,do you understand?!" She yelled

"Gosh,but....."

"No but,come here right away" She said and hanged up

Valentino groaned but then made a turn and drove out of the school instead. 

••••

Quinn's eyes widened as Finn's lips touched hers but he moved back almost immediately.

"What,are you surprised? It's not our first time" Finn said 

"I was just somehow..." Finn pecked her lips again before standing up

"I will see you later" he said and Quinn nodded

He smiled at her before going out. 

Quinn touched her chest,her heart was beating so fast,like Finn said it's not their first time pecking each other on the lips,they've been doing that since they were kids. But strangely this one feels so different,she felt so confused.

"What's going on?" She asked herself,she could still hear her own heartbeats which was interrupted by the sudden outburst of the door. 

Angelique and Erica came in

"Why the f**k did you leave us all alone? Gosh I thought something bad happened but you only came for Finn?" Erica sat on the bed

"I'm sorry girls" Quinn said

"Hey,Finn or me" Angelique asked 

"My twinnie of course" Quinn scoffed

"I'm packing out" Angelique said and turned to the door

"You!!!!!" Quinn screamed

"Better" Angelique said and they laughed

••••

"Come on Channel,it's okay" Jessica said as she hugged the crying Channel

"You don't know how much I like him" Channel said,breaking into another tears

"It's all because of Gigi,stop crying like a fool please" Becky scoffed 

"Stop it" Jessica whispers and Becky rolled her eyes

"So what am I supposed to do? He told me he hates me....."

"Then make him want you,are you gonna give up? F**k you know how much I hate that girl and Vanessa" Becky hissed

"You're prettier than her" Jessica said to Channel

"Well I know,I don't see anything special about her" Channel muttered and wiped her tears

"That's the spirit babe" Jessica smirked

"Gosh,I'm so glad now that you're here and Paige is out,I was getting sick of her already" Channel said and Becky laughed

"You don't know how happy I am right now,Delphine and Julia are pests" Becky hissed

"We should celebrate it!!!" Jessica screamed

"Celebrate what? I'm planning on how to get rid of Vanessa" Becky scoffed

"Well I noticed she's getting close with Valentino these days,aren't they supposed to be enemies?" Channel asked

"I told you right? That girl is a snitch,I knew all along that she only wanted his attention and she's damn jealous of me coz I am close to him,but don't worry,she can never have him no matter what,Valentino is mine either he likes it or not,he's mine" Becky said

"I trust you babe" Jessica said and Becky smirked

••••

Valentino entered the mansion and looked around for Selena,he was about going upstairs when he heard a music playing. He turned and walked to the cellar instead,she was trying to pick a wine

Valentino immediately hugged her from the back

"Back off" Selena snapped

"I know you miss me,don't pretend" Valentino said still hugging her

"Is that why you're hugging me this way? Know your place kiddo" Selena said

"Don't tell me you have a boyfriend now" Valentino said and released her 

"What if?" Selena smirked

"I should tell him my own rules of course" Valentino said

"What rules?" Selena asked

"How I'm gonna kill him if he ever mess with you" Valentino said and she chuckled

"So you think you can mess with other girls too?" Selena asked

"Oh come on" Valentino chuckled and Selena smiled

"I really missed you" She pouted and Valentino hugged her again

"Me too" he muttered

"Mom sent me to you anyway...."

"Not again!" Valentino groaned

"I knew it,so you ignored her calls on purpose?" Selena laughed,pouring him a drink

"Coz I'm tired of her,sometimes I wonder If she's actually my mom" Valentino muttered

"But you have me right? You just have to do what she wants" Selena said

"I don't wanna do what she wants anymore....."

"You don't have a choice,you know what she's capable of" Selena cut in 

"I'm tired of her treating me like I was a mistake" Valentino mumbled

"Hey stop saying that,I'm sure she loves you..."

"I don't think so" Valentino said and Selena sighed out 

••••

"I'm sorry baby,I have alot of works to do" Gigi said on phone,she's actually talking to Nelson. 

"I love you too baby" she hanged up and smiled

Vanessa cleared her throat behind her and she immediately turned

"Were you eavesdropping?" Gigi asked 

"So tell me what work you have so we can do it together" Vanessa said

"I lied" Gigi whispers and Vanessa laughed

"So what are you planning to do?" She asked

"Frat house pumpkin!!" Gigi screamed

"That's why I love you baby girl!" Vanessa also shouted and they both laughed

"Let's get dressed,I can't wait" Gigi smirked

"Okay this is quite creepy,are you planning to seduce anyone tonight?" Vanessa asked

"Not really" Gigi chuckled and opened her closet

She began searching for what to wear while Vanessa watched with interest

"Go and get dressed pumpkin" Gigi said

"I'm tired" Vanessa moaned and hugged the pillow

"Gosh,stop killing my vibes please" Gigi said 

"Unless you pay" Vanessa bite her bottom lip

"I'm not the one with a celebrity mom" Gigi said and Vanessa frowned

"Gosh I hate you" She muttered and walked out of the room. 

••••

Valentino sipped from his glass,he was sitting all alone,his friends are somewhere else flirting as usual. He kept rejecting every girls who came to him that he was finding it strange but he just couldn't help it,he was totally turned off right now and he doesn't know why. 

He wouldn't deny the fact that he was waiting for Vanessa to come in but seems she wouldn't be here

'Does her head still hurts?' He thought inwardly

"Hey babe" Becky came over and sat down on his laps,her dressing was so seductive that any normal guy wouldn't take their eyes off

Valentino stared at her and she blushed

"What do you think? You missed me right?" She asked and cupped his cheeks

"Did you put this on to seduce me or something?" Valentino asked

"Is it working?" Becky smiled,she was about kissing him when Vanessa and Gigi walked into the frat house and without thinking twice,Valentino pushed Becky from his laps almost making her fall

"Tino!!" She screamed but Valentino didn't spare her a glance,she looked up and frowned when she saw Vanessa. 

"Valentino" She pushed his face back to her

"What the f**k has she done to you?! What!" She shouted and Valentino ignored her,he tried drinking but she took the glass from him and dropped it

"Answer me!" She screamed

"Becky stop it" Valentino warned

"I swear I will kill her if you dare dump me coz of her!" She yelled and walked away

Valentino sighed and roughed his hair,he looked at Vanessa,she wasn't even looking his way,she was dancing with Gigi and again he got lost just by staring at her.

"Dude,she might start feeling hot if you don't stop staring" Reed said as they joined him again

Valentino turned to them

"You said you don't like her but you're doing the opposite" Virgil muttered

"I don't know,I think I'm going insane" Valentino muttered

"It's obvious" Terrence chuckled

"Stop thinking and let's drink" Virgil said

"Why are you all here anyway?" Valentino asked

"We saw you had a clash with Becky" Reed said

"Don't worry about her" Valentino scoffed

••

Finn groaned as he washed his face in the sink,he felt drunk earlier and he had to come here. After he got a little bit sober,he walked out of the restroom only to find Sasha who welcomed him with a smile outside the restroom.

"Hey handsome" She grinned

"What are you doing here?" Finn asked

"You look a little bit drunk,I can help right?" She asked

"No,I'm fine" Finn muttered and tried leaving but Sasha immediately grabbed his hand and he turned

"What the f**k do you want from me?" Finn snapped

"I am in love with you!!" Sasha yelled and Finn looked surprised

"Why the f**k are you surprised?! Isn't it obvious? I love you so much!" She said in tears 

Finn said no word as she cried

Sasha held his shirt and pulled him closer to herself before crashing her lips on his own

Quinn was watching them all along,the moment Sasha kissed Finn,she almost lost her breathe,she gulped down hard and immediately ran off,she bumped into Otto

"Are you okay?" Otto asked but she ignored him and ran away

"What's wrong?" He muttered

••

Vanessa sighed out loud,the fact that Giovanni is no where in the frat house was so disturbing,strangely she was missing him badly. She turned to Gigi who seems to be enjoying everything happening

"I'm going outside" She said and Gigi faced her

"Why?...."

"I will be back" She said and left her side.

Gigi's eyes suddenly met with Terence's own and he winked at her,she chuckled and watched him getting up,he was actually walking over to her but then Channel suddenly showed up before him and they both left together. Her eyes followed them

"Where are they going to?" She muttered

"Hey" Reed called beside her and she immediately turned

"Hey" Gigi smiled

"I thought you were expecting someone else" Reed muttered

"Why?" Gigi asked

"You've been having fun with my friend,leaving me out" Reed said

"Oh.....that was nothing. I only paid him back for letting me sleep in his room" Gigi said and Reed scoffed

"You should pay me back too,I had to share my bed with him" He said and Gigi chuckled

"Dear Reed,are you jealous?" Gigi asked In a whisper

"Yes I am" Reed said and she laughed

"Fine,I will buy you ice cream...."

"I don't want that" Reed said

"What do you want then?" Gigi asked

"I will think about it" Reed smiled 

"Finally you're smiling" Gigi chuckled

Reed stared at her lips but then looked away

••••

"Should I call him?" Vanessa muttered doubtfully as she stared at Giovanni's contact

She sighed out and shook her head

"Maybe he's busy" she said and made to walk back into the frat house but was blocked by Paige

"Are you waiting for Giovanni?" Paige asked,glaring at her

Vanessa ignored her and tried leaving

"Come back here you bitch!" Paige yelled and pulled her back

"You're the reason why he wouldn't even talk to me anymore!!" She yelled 

"Seriously?" Vanessa chuckled

"How dare you laugh!" Paige yelled and raised her hand to slap her but someone grabbed her hand from the back and Vanessa looked up to see Valentino

"What the f**k are you thinking?" Valentino said

"Let go of me" Paige said,still glaring at Vanessa

"Go meet your boyfriend not her,stop acting dumb" Valentino said and dropped her hand

"Seriously? Did she charmed you also?" Julia and Delphine showed up and Vanessa frowned

"You're just jealous obviously,stay away from her" Valentino said,,he suddenly sighted Giovanni coming and he immediately grabbed Vanessa's hand,pushing them out of the way as he dragged Vanessa along with him. Giovanni saw them and immediately went after them.

"Valentino" Vanessa called when they got somewhere quiet,she released herself from his grip and Valentina turned to her

"You don't really have to do that,you made me look weak in front of them" Vanessa said

"I just hate it when she say shits to you because of....."

"Leave Giovanni out of this" Vanessa snapped 

"Why? What is it about him that you like so much? What" Valentino asked,staring into her eyes

"Stop it" Vanessa muttered

"Vee" They heard the voice and Vanessa looked back

"Vanni" she called and turned immediately but Valentino pulled her back to himself

"What are you doing? Let go of my hand" Vanessa said

"Tell me why the f**k you're going to him,and answer my question,what do you like about him?" 

"Valen...."

"I want to know!!" Valentino shouted

"I know you hate me because of your friend okay? But I'm sorry,how many times do you want me to say that? A hundred times? I f**king thought we are becoming closer a bit,why do you keep picking him over me?? Why?? I'm trying my best to gain your trust but you keep on pushing me away,I want your attention too!! I'm f**king dying inwardly because you only see him,look at me for once too!!" Valentino shouted and Shockingly he could feel tears rolling down his eyes while Vanessa stared at him in total guilt. 

"I........" She couldn't finish when Valentino hugged her tightly,more tighter than the first. 

"Please,stop being so harsh on me,it hurts" He muttered painfully

Vanessa slowly moved her arms to his back and hugged him back

Giovanni finally showed up and his eyes widened when he saw them.
