Black Roses

Chapter 1- The first encounter

Valentino's Pov

CLINK CLINK CLINK "WAKE UP DUDES"

"SHUT UP ASHER" I rolled out of bed and walked into my en-suite. I stripped down my boxers and stepped into the shower. I let the hot water hit my back while I lathered my hair in shampoo and conditioner, then lathered my body with soap.

When I was finished with my shower I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I forgot to introduce myself, well my name is Valentino Moretti, in 18 and I go to Water Valley high. I am Half Italian and half American. I am the leader of the gang "Black Roses". My dad handed down the title to me when I was 16. I have a little sister who is 15 and lives with my parents. I don't live with them because I live in the gang mansion with my 4 best friends. Asher, Vincent, Ace, and Xavier. Ace is a tattoo artist he can't draw them but he can put them on you, weird I know. Asher is the childish one but he is really good with a computer, he is also the youngest. Xavier was the player but he has a girlfriend and they have been together for 1 year now, he is also a good shooter. Vincent is my second in command but he is one of my best fighters, he said he used to have a twin sister but he thought she died in the house fire that killed his parents. He used to go to Lakeville high but he is transferring to the high school we all go to. Then me I am a player, I shoot and fight, I have tan skin and silky black hair, I also speak Italian fluently. We are the strongest gang in the world so anyone who wants to start a war they already know all their men are going to die so they don't bother.

For school, I put on black jeans and a white shirt with my white Jordans. I grabbed my backpack and ran down the stairs.

"Morning Sir," said my maid Maria

She's like my second mother when I'm at the mansion, she's worked for our family for years. She has 2 daughters named Leslie and Lindsey their 12 and a Son who is 20. She treats me and the Boys like her own.

"Stop with the formal greetings Maria, just call me Valentino" I scolded her

"I know son," she said with a chuckle.

"What's on the menu today ma" yelled Asher as he strolled down the stairs

"The usual son tell the boys to come down after they wash their hands because breakfast is ready and you boys have to leave for school in 30 minutes" she replied

AFTER BREAKFAST

INCOMING CALL FROM POPS

"Hey dad"

Hello Son"

"What's Up"

"Well I decided we need a gang tattoo"

"Makes sense'

"But I need you to find someone to draw it and ask Ace right now if he minds tattooing it"

"Is it just for my boys or all 300 people in the gang"

"Just you guys son"

"Hold up let me ask him," I told him

"Yo Ace" I yelled

"What do you want," he said with a hint of attitude

"My dad wants to know if you could tattoo us if we find somebody to draw the tattoo" I yelled

"Yeah whatever man," he said

"I'm back dad he said he will," I told him

"Alright son make sure I approve of it first" he replied

"Ok bye dad tell ma I said hello"

"Alright son, goodbye"

After I got off the phone with my dad I called the boys and told them it was time to go and we all hoped in our cars. We all have Audis but their all different colors.

SKIPPING RIDE TO SCHOOL

When we got out of our cars we all slipped on our RayBands and walked in, and all eyes were on us as usual. We are the bad boys of the school, but we actually make good grades, but you would never know due to our 'don't care' attitudes. As soon as I see my locker I see Amanda Wren right by it twirling her hair while wearing a pink tight mini skirt and a white lace crop top and some really high heels that look very uncomfortable.

"Hi baby, wanna get out of here and go to my house" she purred

"Um one i'm not your baby and two i'm good" I replied as calmy as possible. I try to be nice to her but she doesn't understand that she is just a play toy I used to get the anger out.

"Well babe all you have to do is call an ill be ready" she added with a wink then she walked away.

After my lovely encounter with her, I stuffed my books in my locker and headed to 1st period.

SKIPPING TO ART CLASS

I decided to stay in art class because I wanted to ask the art teacher who her best student was for the tattoo.

"Hey Ms. Rose I was wondering who your best student was in your class was," I asked her

"Oh hi hun and her name is Jadelyn Gray I always tell her to enter her artwork in contest but she never does" she replied

"Do you know where I can find her"

"Most likely in the library drawing"

"Thank you, ma'am"

Once I got that information I headed to the library to find Jadelyn.

When I got the library I asked the librarian where Jadelyn was and she told me she sits in the far right corner where the window was. I followed her directions and saw the most gorgeous girl I ever saw. She had her curly hair in a messy bun with a small curl she kept pushing, the perfect sized pink lips, and she had black glasses on. She had clear honey-colored skin. She had on light colored jeans that weren't to tight with a flash hoodie on and red hightop vans. She was perfect. She was currently drawing a picture of The Flash. Jadelyn was like a goddess.

"Are you Jadelyn Grey?" I asked her

"Um y-yes" she replied timidly

I knew the boys would want to know her so I grabbed her out of the chair slung her over my shoulder and made sure she had her sketch pad and carried her on my shoulder to lunch. She was banging on my back but after a while, she just gave up and laid there.
