"and then that james guy said i wasn't allowed to be late to the class, i mean yeah, but i was showing anna the school, it was an important thing." charli was basically telling addison and avani what happened this morning during the english class.
during the lunch i introduced myself to addison and avani and they did the same. they seemed very nice and they started talking to me as if we already were friends.
"you know there's always gonna be people like him, but we don't care. we're doing our own thing and we have fun, that's it." addison said and i couldn't agree more.
she noticed i was nodded meaning i agreed with her, so she said: "you're on social media's too, anna?"
"uh not at all, it's not really my thing." i said while i was taking a sip of water. "but i get your point and i kinda said the same thing to charli earlier."
"oh how come? i'm pretty sure we're gonna convince you to." she giggled. "i already imagine you, it's gonna be amazing trust me"
"please addison she just arrived here, you can't stress her about it." avani said looking at me. "you're just gonna scare her and she's gonna run away."
"nah i mean, it could be funny but i know there are cons too, and i don't know if i could handle it." as soon as those words came out of my mouth i remembered the comments left on my post by vinnie's followers.
it was nothing, but i still think about it sometimes. they didn't even know me and started assuming things that weren't even true, just cause i appeared on vinnie's story. i couldn't imagine what he, or even charli, avani and addison, had to go through.
"yeah actually we saw you on vinnie's story, i can only imagine what his fans started assuming." charli said looking at me. "i hope they didn't get to you."
"uhm, actually they did." they looked at me worried knowing how it could feel like. "but i didn't say anything to vinnie. i didn't even replay to them."
"whyy? you should have told him, he would have handled it as always." addison said and she was right about the fact that i should have told him.
"as always?" i asked confused.
they first looked at each other and after a long minute, charli started talking, but she seemed pretty unsure: "every time they see vinnie with a girl, even though she's just a friend, they start assuming things or something and vinnie addresses the situation."
"as you might have noticed, vinnie is a kind guy, but when this stuff happens, he becomes another person. this always gets him really mad." avani said. "and that's why i think he'll get even more, as soon as he gets to know that you didn't tell him."
oh shit. i wanted to stay out of all this, that's why i didn't tell him anything, but it seemed like this got things even worse.
i put my head between my hands saying: "what the hell did i do? i didn't want any of this to happen. and now?"
charli came closer to me and hugged me: "it's gonna be fine, avani was exaggerating. just talk to vinnie if anything happens, he's used to it."
thanks to what charli told me, i felt slightly better. the lunch time was over, so we had to go back to classes. we went out of the cafeteria and i looked at my schedule.
"we all have this class too now, let's go, it's this way." addison said surprising me. i was so focused on my schedule that i didn't notice her next to me.
i followed them walking through the hallway and we arrived at the maths class, so it was common for everyone. it meant i was going to see vinnie, again, after the little meeting we had before at the cafeteria.
we entered the class and many students weren't there yet. we took a seat all next to each other and waited for the professor to start the lesson.
i was happy i had to meet charli and her friends, they were all so nice and treated me like they've been knowing me for a long time. i actually didn't expect to be welcomed so warmly.
after few minutes vinnie and two boys entered the class laughing. i never saw how vinnie was like with his friends. when i first met him in person he seemed shy, but now he was different and i liked that vinnie.
he saw me and nodded his head after i waved to him. despite he was acting weird these past days, i still wanted to be polite since i was living with him.
the lesson finally started and all my enthusiasm of being here disappeared when i noticed i was finding it hard to keep up with what the professor was saying. i should have considered that i was going to study more things here than i was used to in italy.
i tried to write down everything he was saying, even though all that had no sense to me. i took a look at charli's notebook, but i couldn't properly see.
"do you have a problem, miss martini?" i heard the professor's voice. shit, that was fucking embarrassing.
"not at all, i couldn't hear the last thing you said so i asked her if she could show me." i said looking quickly at charli and then again at the professor.
"actually i noticed your worried face as i was talking. i think you should ask one of your classmates to share their notes with you to keep up with what we're saying."
my eyes turned into vinnie's direction and apparently he was looking at me too. i was pretty sure he would have lent me his notes later that afternoon.
"actually, that's even better." the professor stopped for a second before talking again: "i'll pair you up with emily, she's one of our best students and i'm sure she's gonna help you."
the professor was pointing a girl sitting in the first row. i tried to look at her better and she seemed nice, i hoped she was. but i cared more about the fact that she was smart, so that she could have helped me.
she had a little smile on her face and said: "of course i'm gonna help her, no problems." for sure every teacher loved her.
the professor continued the lesson and i was about to keep taking notes, when i felt someone's eyes on me. i immediately looked in vinnie's direction and of course it was him.
i couldn't really understand how he was feeling, but he didn't seem pretty happy about what the professor just said.
i decided not to pay attention to him and his weird behaviour and few seconds later charli passed me a little piece of paper: 'don't pay attention to vinnie, specially now. just good luck with all that."
what the heck did she mean?
