Temptations (A Vinny Castronovo Love Story) *Completed*

Chapter Twenty-Three

(Vinny's POV)

Tears streamed down my face as I stood there, alone. I kissed her... And she just left. I don't understand. I thought she was actually starting to like me again? I was officially pissed off. I'm so dumb! How could I actually believe she'd ever like me again after all I did to her? I sat on the couch, and hid my face in my hands. I'm so dumb. "Vin... What happened?" Mikey sat next to me, and patted my back. "I kissed Gab... And she just ran away." I sniffled, and mentally cursed myself several times. Why do I even try? "Oh shit bro.... I'm sorry...." Mikey said. "Why are you sorry? I deserve this. She's too good for me... I don't deserve her..." I mumbled through tears. "You're right... You don't deserve her. Or at least you're not acting like you don't want her bad enough right now...." Mikey said. I looked at him, bewildered. What did he just say? "What the fuck bro? You're supposed to support me, not put my down!" I yelled. "I'm just saying, if you really wanted her... You would've gone after her when she ran out...." Mikey shrugged, and I mentally cursed at myself. HE'S RIGHT. "Thanks bro!" I quickly patted his back, and jolted down the street, trying desperately to get to Gab's house. I got tired, and took a break... Running is so not up my alley. That's when I saw it. Around the corner. Gab. And Marko. Kissing. My heart literally broke into a thousand pieces. I swore I could hear it breaking. I slowly turned around, and began walking back home. You know how, just one tiny moment can make you feel as if your whole world is falling apart? Well, that moment, seeing them kissing... That was it. I could literally feel pain in every inch of my body, I could hardly think, I felt numb, but painful at the same time, something I didn't even know was possible. I then remembered that I had a party at my house, so I probably shouldn't go back there, because they'd ask too many questions. I turned around, and went to Mikey's house, then skimmied up the ladder on the side, and into his room. I locked the door, and fell to the ground, sobbing. I couldn't express how badly I was feeling currently. It was if Gab ripped out my heart, and was stomping repeatedly on it. I just don't get it... I thought she liked me. I sobbed into his carpet. so this is what it feels like to have your heart broken..... 

(A/N: I would just like to make it clear that I would never pick another boy over Vinny. And picturing Vinny crying honestly broke my heart into 30596734964047093 pieces because he is perfection and should never have to cry. That's all. Hope you enjoyed this chapter. Smooches <3)
