Bad Romance

better than revenge

"Good morning, sunshine," I say to Vinnie on the other side of the door, smiling. "Yes?" he responds, rubbing his eyes, "did I wake you?" "Yes, we were sleeping," Emily reveals as she approaches Vinnie to hug him. "Shit, I'm sorry, I just came here for a box you never returned to me, and I just need it," I say, trying to ignore Emily. "A box?" says Emily, grinning at me. "The one over there, babe?" she asks Vinnie. "Yes," he says, giving her a false smile, and she heads over to get the damn box. "I am sorry," he says to me when she isn't around, and I nod dismissively. "Here" she hands it to me and I leave very awkwardly.

"He really got himself a girlfriend immediately, I didn't think he was serious, I mean you all swore he was talking about me when he was really talking about her," I rant to Larray, who is helping me redecorating my room, "she stayed over for the night? "In his bedroom?" "Yes, what a dick," I say, "but look on the bright side, you just got out of a long and toxic relationship, why would you want to get into another one straight away?" "Yeah, I just need time for myself and glowing up and shit or at the very least changing old things around,"and we go about making my room look like my pinterest boards.

We go to the kitchen to make some food while we decorate, and she is there, like she is everywhere. It's a little annoying. "Hello you two," she greets us as we enter the kitchen, "so you two are very close with Vinnie, right?" She smiles, and Larray gives me the follow my lead look. "Oh yes, especially Nai, they were close for a while right girl," he tells. "Oh yeah, we were close, I also encouraged him to get a girlfriend so we could go on double dates with my ex, but unfortunately, my ex and I didn't last long enough, otherwise we would have loved hanging out with you two," I add.

"So, why did you end your relationship with your ex?" She questions, "because it was a toxic relationship," I reply, "I heard you two cheated, is that true?" She smirks, "you're asking the wrong questions, girl, don't believe everything you see or read online," I return her fake smile. "How about you, how did you and Vinnie meet?" Larray asks to relieve the tension, "we've been talking for a while now, a little before he joined the house really," she says, and both me and Larray share shocked glances, which she notices. "Has he ever mentioned me?" "No, he said something about him liking someone, we all thought he was joking, the boy couldn't get a girl to save his life," Larray smiles as he pulls me back upstairs because Vinnie, Michael and Thomas were all coming.
