Untouched, Unbothered {Completed}

well, fuck

Val's POV

I wake up the next morning. I quickly run to the toilet. I spend about a good five minutes just puking my guts out. I was confused on why I woke up puking. Then I realize, sushi, wine, and dancing probably don't go too well together. I was mad at myself for thinking that was a good idea. I realized I hadn't gone pee in like fourteen hours. Once I did go, I felt amazing. My stomach felt much better too.

I hop into the shower. I stunk and looked like trash. I sit down on the floor, letting last nights events run through my head. I remember the waiter, the stranger who hurt me, then... Luca. And as soon as I remembered him, the tears that have wanted to come out for a while now finally come out. I sit there, letting the warm water hit my bare skin. The tears just flowing. Why'd he not want to see me anymore? Why'd he not want to protect me?

Maybe I'm too clingy. Maybe he's tired of me. He doesn't have to let me live with him. Maybe this whole time he really was messing with my feelings. Messing with my head. Maybe he's so cruel he'd let me fall for him, then treat me like shit. Or what if, me living without him was protecting me. Maybe he didn't mess with my feelings and actually cared. But he was Luca. Maybe he just couldn't express those feelings.

But maybe. I'm thinking about this too much.

I force my brain to turn off. I wash my hair and body and get out. I get dressed then walk to the table. There was ibuprofen on the table. Meaning one of the girls were awake. I take some and drink some water. I pull out a bowl of cereal and start to eat. I get sad again because I remembered how much Matteo liked this cereal. Matteo had to stay with Anna and Stefano because Luca was too busy to take care of him, and now I was being hunted. I haven't seen him in so long. I missed my little buddy.

But then a familiar laugh echoed throughout the room and my smile was uncontrollable. I finish my cereal and wash my bowl. I follow the laughter. I follow it to Violet's room. Roberto was on the bed getting tickled. That explains why his laugh was so loud. I quickly come to Vi's side and start to tickle him. He was smiling so big, it looked like it hurt. I look at Vi and stopp tickling him and start laughing. I pick the baby up and cradled him in my arms. I loved this baby so much. I couldn't wait till I was older. I was going to have a family. I promised myself that a while ago.

Anyways I set Roberto back down and decide to go watch some t.v. I turn The Vampire Diaries on. I was in the middle of season 5 and needed to finish. "I don't know what the hell is happening. It's like I'm seeing his life." Tyler said. I was on the edge of my seat. This show was always intense. I stop freaking out when I had to run as fast as I could to the bathroom to not let the puke get all over our home. I sat in the bathroom for an hour.

"Valentina are you alright? You've been in here puking for a long time." Violet asks.

"Yeah, maybe it was the sushi?" Stella suggests. I know she was trying to be helpful, but I was pissed. And I didn't know why. "Yeah no dip sherlock. I probably have fucking food poisoni-" And then I puked again. This time the girls came into the bathroom. "Alright, let's get you to the hospital." And they help me clean my mouth and change my shirt. They get me a bucket just in case I puked in the car. They put me in the back, and themselves in the front. We drop Roberto off with Anna.

We make it to the hospital when I once again had to throw up. I finish and come back out. We luckily get a nurse or doctor or I don't who, and an examining room. The girls wait outside. I sit on the examining table or whatever. I really hated hospitals, and everything to do with them. No good memories have come from them. I take a few tests and stuff and finally, the doctor comes in. "Hello, Ms. Moretti. I'm Dr. Russo."

"Hey," I say. I want to get out of here already. "The puking will stop, I'll prescribe you pills to help. You need to take it easier. You seem to be under a lot of stress lately. Remember, don't drink, smoke, or do drugs. It'll lead to bad results in the future. For you as well." She said smiling. I was so confused. "What the heck are you talking about," I said kind of rudely. "I didn't mean to sound rude, but I don't have one clue on what you're talking about." She smiles. "Oh, you don't know yet." I shake my head. She walks out of the room and comes back with papers. She hands them to me.

I look over them. I start laughing. "This is funny. I bet my friends pulled a prank on me." She looks worried. "Uh... no dear. These results are real." I gulp loudly. I take another look at the paper. "You're 100% sure? There's not some mistake?" She slightly laughs, then shakes her head. "So, I'm-I'm p-pregnant?" I say. It was so fucking weird saying it out loud. "But that's not possible I had my period.." My voice trails off. I've been so occupied I didn't even realize I was like a month late. "Oh." She smiles. "Would you like your friends in here?" She asks nicely. I nod. As she walks out, the girls walk in.

I had my elbows on my knees, and my face rested in my palms. "You good there V?" I shake my head. "Hey, it's alright. I've had food poisoning before, it hurts but it'll be gone soon." Stella says smiling at me. "That's not exactly what's wrong with me.." I say, my face was still in my palms. I didn't want to see their looks of disappointment when I told them. "What is it then?" Violet asks now closer to me. "Let's just say this thing is going to be my problem for at least eighteen years," I swear it was so silent you could hear a pin drop. Violet and Stella both drop the mini plastic cups of water they had. I look at them. Embarrassed. I know my face was red.

Their faces show pure shock. But it slowly turned into what looked like a mix of anger and happiness. "You guys aren't disappointed in me?" "YES I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED. YOU LOST YOUR VIRGINITY AND DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU." Violet screams. Stella was rolling on the floor laughing. "Glad you thought that was funny." I say bitterly to Stella. She only laughs harder. "I guess it slipped my mind?" I suggest. I don't exactly know why I didn't tell them. "Bullshit," Violet says. "I honestly don't remember why I didn't tell you." She scowls at me. I smile innocently. Stella finally calms down. "Well give us the details. When? With who? Was he big? Was it as amazing as you'd want it to be? Do we know him?" Stella asks making me blush. I didn't think she'd want to know if her brother's dick was big. But it'd be payback for her laughing earlier.

"To answer your questions, It was about two weeks ago. We got into bed twice, but did the actual deed like seventeen times in total." Their mouths drop. I couldn't help but laugh. "No wonder you're pregnant," Vi says. I playfully swat her. "He was actually pretty big. But not so much it was scary." They smile. "It was more than amazing. I didn't know it'd feel that good." Once again their smiles get bigger. "And yes. You both know him. His name is Luca." I say, Stella seriously passes out. But Vi just jumps up and down then hugs me. "Oh my god babe really? I'm so proud of you. But I'm still mad you didn't tell me sooner." "Sorry," I reply. After about five minutes, Stella was back up. "I DID NOT WANT TO KNOW THAT ABOUT MY BROTHER WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN ME?" She screams. Vi and I laugh, then we shush her.

"It was my payback for you laughing at me earlier." She glares at me. The doctor walks back in. "If you girls would please go have a seat." They nod and sit in the chairs. She closes the door. "Do you have any questions you'd like to ask me?" She asks. I sit there thinking for a bit. Then I remembered last night. Oh my god. I drank alcohol. "Oh my, last night I drank wine. Is anything going to happen to the baby?" I frantically ask. She looks at me and smiles. "No dear. You're barely two weeks pregnant. You'll be fine. As long as you don't drink anymore after today. If you do the baby can get Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Basically, it's a brain disorder with no cure. Therapy and doctors cannot help with the disorder." I breathe out in relief. "Thank you. That's all the questions I have for now." She nods and says we can go.

We pick up Roberto on the way home. Once we make it into our apartment, I asked the girls something. "Can you guys please not tell Luca. This is mostly directed to you Stel. He wants nothing to do with me. I may love him, but he doesn't love me back. I don't want him to feel forced to marry me. I don't want a one-sided relationship. I want my kid to grow up around happy loved ones. You feel?" They laugh at the last sentence. I was trying to lighten the mood. "It'll kill me but yeah," Stella says. Violet looks at me. "Of course V. But you'll eventually have to tell him. They'll wonder about their dad. I really don't want to but I'll have to tell Roberto about Alex. No matter how horrible he was. But he'll get to know his badass aunt killed him and saved our lives." I can't help but laugh.

"Of course I'll tell Luca. Just.. not yet okay?" They smile and nod. "Well, I'm going to take a morning sickness pill and go relax in bed. I'm going to start thinking of names." They smile. And I head to my bed.
