Chapter 17: A FIGHT FOR HER
••••••
TWO MONTH LATER
Vanessa responded in the same pace as Valentino,their tongues and lips melting together. Valentino held her waist more tightly and then grabbed her @ss,Vanessa moaned out,she wrapped her arms around his neck.
Valentino suddenly carried her and her legs twirled around his waist,their lips still connected. He dropped her on the bed and even deepened the kiss more. The hair towel dropped from her head and her long hair came into view as they both broke the kiss.
"Are you really dating him?" Valentino asked,still staring at her lips
"Why are you asking?" Vanessa asked
"I just want to know,but I don't think I need the answer right now. Who cares" He said and Vanessa chuckled
"You think I'm ever going to cheat on my boyfriend? Never" She said
"Not when I am Valentino" Valentino said and pecked her lips before falling beside her on the bed
"I missed you" he muttered and Vanessa faced him
"That sounds like a lie" She said
"You need to trust me okay? About Becky...I honestly got crazy because of you,that was why" Valentino said
"Because of me?" Vanessa questioned
"Yeah,cos I was jealous seeing you and Giovanni eating together" he replied
"I thought you accepted to date him" He added
"That's not an excuse,you're just the jerk I used to know" Vanessa scoffed and Valentino sat up
"Wanna go out?" He asked
"It's past nine" Vanessa immediately said
"I'm starving" Valentino said
"Don't tell me you didn't eat" Vanessa said
"I was worried about you all day,I couldn't wait to come here that I forgot to eat" Valentino muttered and her cheeks turned pink
"You look cute when you blush" Valentino winked and pulled her up
"Let's go out" he said
"I'm not going anywhere with you Valentine" Vanessa said and Valentino smiled
"What did you just called me?" He asked and Vanessa immediately regretted calling him that
"Nothing,you should go find something to eat,leave me alone" She said
"Says someone who asked for a kiss just minutes ago" Valentino teased and Vanessa glared at him
"Okay fine,but you're going out with me tomorrow okay? Even if you're with him,I will come and drag you with me" He said
"As if you can" Vanessa scoffed
"Then let's see tomorrow,you're mine tomorrow,okay?" Valentino winked and like that he walked to the window but then turned back
"Goodnight Nessa" he said softly
"Goodnight" Vanessa muttered,watching him jump down as usual
She sighed out and sat down on the bed,how she asked for a kiss came to her mind and she screamed
'What am I doing? Giovanni is there' she thought and bite her lips,the truth is she doesn't even understand herself right now.
The door opened and Gigi entered
"Babe are you okay? I heard you scream" She said
"Gigi what do I do?" Vanessa faced her immediately
"Wow,finally she want to talk about it" Gigi smiled
"I'm confused,please don't laugh" Vanessa said
"Talking about Giovanni and Valentino?" Gigi asked
"How did you know?" Vanesaa asked
"Coz it's obvious babe,you like them both" Gigi replied
"I....think I do" Vanessa muttered
"But who do you like most?" Gigi asked and Vanessa thought for a while
"I don't know Gigi,I don't" She breathe out
"This is serious,who is your heart beating for? Like the unusual beats?" Gigi asked again
Vanessa kept quiet and then her mind went to Valentino,she could remember how fast her heart was beating just when he came into her room,and it got worse anytime he gets close to even kiss her,but crazily she never felt that way anytime she's either Giovanni
"Does the beats.....means something?" She asked
"Obviously,if you have a crush on a guy....."
"I'm not crushing on Valentino" Vanessa snapped
"So it's Valentino after all" Gigi said and Vanessa sighed out
"What....what does that mean?" Vanessa asked
"I think you're in love with Tino pumpkin,your eyes says it all...."
"Stop it" Vanessa mumbled
"It's the truth babe,you always want him around you,you don't like seeing him with other girls,even though you pretend but still you like it when he looks at you alone....prove me wrong" Gigi said
"Goodnight" Vanessa mumbled and fell on the bed
"Don't keep Giovanni waiting pumpkin,it hurts more that way" Gigi said before going out
Vanessa sat up and she bite her lips
Actually,Gigi is right. Everything she said is true,but silly her doesn't even know that is what people call love,it's her first time anyway. But why Valentino of all people?? Why not Giovanni?? Why?!!
Her phone rang out and she turned to see the caller,it's Giovanni.
She couldn't even touch the phone,she only stared as the phone rang continuously
"I'm sorry Vanni....I'm sorry" She muttered
••••
<NEXT MORNING>
As Vanessa walked beside Gigi,the students kept on screaming her name,good wishes and all,she never knew she was loved that much until this morning.
They met the golden boys just outside the lecture hall
"Hey queen V" The boys all called at a time and Valentino looked up,he removed his headphones too,getting a better look at her sexiness
"Morning guys" Vanessa smiled at them and walked closer to Reed
"Hey" She said and Reed smiled at her
"Thank you" She muttered,bringing out her hand for a shake
"Gosh,I should have done that earlier to shake her" Reed said and the boys laughed including Vanessa and Gigi
"You're welcome anyway" Reed said,taking her hand
"Me too,I'm jealous please" Virgil said and Vanessa also shook hands with him,she turned to Terence
"A hug would do" Terence said and opened his arms,he was about hugging her but Valentino pulled him back
"Don't act so crazy" he said
Gigi chuckled,holding Vanessa's hand as they entered the hall
"Dude,do you have to do that? It's just a hug not a kiss" Terence scoffed
"Hug indeed" Valentino said and they also went into the lecture hall.
"Who's in for a sleepover tonight?? To celebrate those bad eggs that were expelled?" Shirley suddenly asked and everyone laughed
"I'm in!!" Gigi said out loudly and the students started murmuring
"Unfortunately,Vanessa wont be there" Valentino spoke up and everyone turned to him
"Why? How did you know?" Finn asked
"Of course I know,you can ask her" Valentino said and winked at Vanessa who was speechless
"Oh right.. Yeah,I won't be there. We can make it tomorrow" She said
"Yes!!" Sasha and Soraya said
Almost immediately,the lecturer walked into the hall.
••
As the lecturer was going on in class,Giovanni wasn't himself. He couldn't stop thinking about Vanessa and the fact that she ignored his calls and never bothered to call back was so disturbing.
He was wondering if she's mad at him,is she angry because he refused even after she accepted his proposal? He was trying not to regret that but he is already.
"Gio" Pierce called and he turned
"What the f**k are you thinking bro,I've been calling you" Ace said
"I didn't even hear you,what do you want?" Giovanni asked
Pierce was about talking when the lecturer walked out of the hall and immediately Giovanni stood up
"Where are you going?" Ace asked
"Let's talk later" He said and walked out
"Is something going on with him?" Pierce asked
"Who knows" Ace muttered.
Vanessa was just coming out of the hall with her friends when Giovanni showed up.
"Vee" he called
"Oh,it's Giovanni" Angelique said and they all turned
"Meet us in the cafeteria" Gigi said and Vanessa nodded gently before turning to Giovanni
"Hey" She managed to smile
"I called you last night....."
"Oh I....I slept off" She said nervously
"I was worried,I thought you're mad at me" Giovanni said
"Of course not,I'm sorry for not picking up" Vanessa said
"Can we just talk for a minute?" Giovanni asked and Vanessa nodded
Giovanni held her hand softly and they both walked away
Meanwhile,Valentino was watching them as they talked and the moment they both left,he also walked out of the hall.
••
Giovanni and Vanessa entered and empty class together,there was total silence. Vanesaa could hear her heart beating so fast,it's not a weird beat,it's only because she's nervous and scared of what he's going to say or what her answer is going to be,she would have tried her best to avoid this conversation but like Gigi said,it's going to hurt more if it's not done now.
"Vee?" Giovanni called and she looked up
"Why are we here?" She asked
"Coz....I...just want to remind you that I love you" Giovanni said and Vanessa swallowed
"I promised to give you enough time but the truth is...I'm going Crazy already,I think about you every single second,I just....I don't think I can hold it anymore. I'm madly in love with you Vanessa" Giovanni confessed
Vanessa said no word,their eyes bulging into each other's own.
"Say something....please" Giovanni held her hand but she immediately moved back
"Vanessa..."
"Giovanni.....I'm.....I...."
"Don't tell me you're rejecting me" Giovanni said
"I'm sorry" Vanessa said lowly,avoiding his eyes
"But I love You Vanessa,it's the truth...I'm crazy about you" Giovanni said hurtfully
"I like you Giovanni,but I know that's not enough,I don't feel the same way....." She stopped when she saw a tear drop in his eyes which surprised her
"Gio..."
"Is this because of Valentino?" Giovanni suddenly asked,cutting her off
"No that's not it....."
"Then why? You told me just two days ago that you would like to be my girlfriend,were you only trying to make a fool of me? Why are you rejecting me now??" Giovanni asked
"Giovanni I'm sorry,I just....don't want to hurt you" Vanesaa said
"But you're hurting me now,if you don't want to hurt me..then be my girlfriend. My love is enough for us...."
"You said you won't force me" Vanessa immediately said
"It's not my fault that I am getting crazy as the days pass by" Giovanni said
Vanessa stared at him for a minute
"I'm sorry" She muttered and made to leave
Giovanni grabbed her band and pulled her back,he pinned her against the wall and Vanesaa let out a gasp
He started bringing his face closer,but Vanessa looked away,avoiding his lips. Giovanni stared at her in shock
"Did he told you to avoid my kiss too?" He asked
"Giovanni stop!" Vanessa snapped
"Why can't I kiss you too?!" He said loudly and tried kissing her again
The door opened loudly and Valentino came in,Vanessa turned to the door immediately
"Let her go" Valentino said
Giovanni released Vanesaa and turned to Valentino with an angry glare
He didn't think twice before throwing a punch on his face,Vanessa gasped with wide eyes
"Valentino!" She called as Valentino fell on the floor but Giovanni didn't leave him,he grabbed him and punched him again
"Who the f**k do you think you are?!" Giovanni yelled and continue hitting him
Valentino's face was already covered with blood But Giovanni ignored Vanessa's screams
"Giovanni stop!!" She shouted and rushed in between them
Mistakenly,Giovanni's hand met her
"Ouch!" She winced and fell
Valentino's eyes widened immediately,somehow the strength came from nowhere
"What the f**k?" He got up and pushed Giovanni to the floor and got on top
"How dare you hurt her?!! You bastard!!" He yelled angrily and began returning the punches on his face,even heavier ones
"Valentine!! Stop it please!!" Vanesaa broke into tears.
