(Vinny's POV)

Me and Gab sat at the table, our stomachs stuffed tp the brim with pasta Al had just made. Gab reached forward and sipped on her Spirte, stretching to wake herself up. She looked exhausted from being so full. I laughed to myself, and got up, putting both our bowls in the sink. "Vin, your phone is going crazy right now." Gab laughed. "Answer it please!" I said, scrubbing my dish with soap. "Hello?" She said. "TOMMY! Hey bud how are you? Ah ha... Oh yeah I'll ask him now... Hey vin?" "Yes?" I asked and stopped the water. "Do you wanna go over to Tommy's and dance in his studio? His dad just installed new speakers!" She said excitedly. "Woah, totally! Tell him we'll be over as soon as I change." I said, gesturing to the skinny jeans and v-neck I was wearing. "Hey Tommy, yeah, we'll be over as soon as Vinny changes out of his boy band attire!" She said, stifling back a laugh. I stuck my tongue out at her and finished the dishes, then ran upstairs to my room. I changed into a yellow sweatshirt, gray sweatpants, and white Jordans'. I threw a black snapback on, and then ran downstairs, just in time to see Gab hanging up. "Alright, ready pretty boy?" She asked, laughing. "Definitely, let's go!" I smiled, and wrapped my arm around her shoulders. We made the walk to Thomas's, walking straight inside. "TOMMY!" Gab smiled, hugging him tight. "Hey Gab!" Thomas smiled. "Hey... You know my rule Gabrielle." Gab laughed, and looked down at her clothes. Skinny jeans, a tank top, and vans. "Go up to my room and change." She laughed, and ran upstairs, coming back down in Thomas's black sweatpants and blue ICON t-shirt, the only thing of hers was her black Vans. "Better." Thomas laughed, and high fived her. She smiled, and tied her hair into a bun. "Let's get dancing." She took out her phone and plugged it in, and looked through her playlist. "Ah, perfect!" Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe echoed through the room. She smiled, and started breaking out in dance moves. I was honestly quite impressed. She still needed a little training, but she was good for just beginning in dancing this year. "Hey guys I'll be back. I gotta take my antibiotics." Thomas laughed, referring to his allergy medicine. He exited the room, leaving me and Gab to ourselves. Gab watched herself in the mirror, repeating a move she kept getting stuck on. I smiled, she really is perfect...

(Gabrielle's POV)

I noticed Vinny's stare, and tried to ignore it, but his eyes were distracting me. I kept messing up on one move, I kept trying and trying until I gave up, and sat down. Vinny laughed, and sat down next to me. "That was really good Gab." "Thanks!" I smiled, and strecthed forward and touched my toes, holding it until my stomasch burned. Vinny laughed, and leaned back. "You're so cute..." I sighed, and half smiled. "Thanks." "Uh oh, you don't sound happy, what is it?" Vinny asked, suddenly concerned. "It's just..." I sighed in embarassment. "Everyone always calls me cut. Never sexy or hot... I mean, I guess I don't blame them. I'm me..." Vinny looked me up and down, his teeth hooking on to his bottom lip. "Well... I think you're sexy...." Silence echoed through the room as I sat there, my cheeks getting warmer, and I'm sure they turned red. "Do you?" Vinny nodded, a smirk playing on his lips. I blushed harder as Vinny pulled me closer, his hand caressing my cheek, our lips moving closer to each other. "Hey guys I'm back wh- WOAH!" Thomas entered the room, causing us to separate from each other quickly. "Oh, uh, hey Tommy." I said, standing up and loudering the music. "Um, okay I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that... Let's dance." Thomas said, standing between us. I nodded, and loudered the music even more. Vinny laughed, and winked at me, looseining uo to dance. I blushed, and smiled. We almost kissed....
