A/N: NARRATORS POV
BOLD + ITALIC = FLASHBACK

Valentina hated Karen with a passion, not because of her 'good' looks or her pick me attitude, but because she had lip wrapped around her finger,

when all Val wanted was for him to look at her the way he looked at Karen

Val didn't confront him about leading her on because it wouldn't make a difference, he would still choose Karen over her, even if it bothered her, she couldn't force him to love her

She knew Karen and lip were gonna get together sooner or later, but seeing it with her own eyes, right in front of her, made her wish it was later

Valentina walked into the Gallaghers house not bothering to knock since she practically lived there,

As she walks in, she sees lip and Karen sitting there, holding hands and kissing,

She stayed still for a few minutes, until Oliver saw her standing there

"Oh hey Tina, Tate and joey are upstairs with Holton and Tommy in carls room" Oliver told her before going back to his movie

While Valentina was walking up the stairs to carls room, she made eye contact with lip,

As Valentina rolled her eyes at him, lip was confused but shrugged it off as Karen pulled him into another kiss

"Sup losers" Val said as she walked into  the room

After a while of talking and playing whatever game they come up with, lip comes through the door looking at Valentina

"Karen left" lip said mainly to Tina

Everyone could feel the tension in the room and looked at Tina waiting for a response but she didn't move or even look at him

"So? Not my problem" Tina replied, texting someone on her phone

"V can I talk to you?" Lip asked,

"I'm gonna head home guys" Tina said grabbing her things

"I'll walk you home" Tate said grabbing her things as well

"Yeah I should probably head home too"  Joey continues after Tate

"Already, babe?" Carl asked Joey

"Yeah, my dad and junior are probably home by now" Joey responded kissing Carl

As their walking out Joey could've sworn she seen Holton look down and Tommy noticed that too

But looking back at it, Val wanted to punch herself for even wasting her time, but she couldn't do anything since she still loved that kid with everything in her
