Temptations (A Vinny Castronovo Love Story) *Completed*

Chapter Forty-One

(Gabrielle's POV)

I wke up in a room I didn't recognize. My head was in Vinny's lap, and his hand was gently stroking my face. I kept my eyes closed, and sighed in pleasure. He always knew how to calm me down. Suddenly, I heard his phone vibrate. I opened my eyes, and looked up at him sleepily. "Oh, hey baby..." He had a look of worry on his face. I sat up, and stretched. "What's wrong?" "Oh, nothing. Just stressing over this science homework..." He said, turning through his binder. "Awe, let me help you with it..." I smiled, and scooted next to him, taking his binder in my lap. He leaned over me, and I could feel his hot breath on my neck. Oh my God, this boy...

(Vinny's POV)

I felt my phone vibrate, so I reached over and grabbed my phone, careful not to wake Gab. I almost dropped the phone when I read what the text said:

We decided to leave Gab alone. She doesn't deserve to be harassed... But you know who does? You.

I sighed, and my face twisted in worry. Was he really going to do this right now? Suddenly Gab sat up, and looked at me, crap. "What's wrong?" Quick Vinny, think of something. "Oh, nothing. Just stressing over this science homework..." I lied, turning to it in my binder. "Awe, let me help you with it..." She smiled, and moved close to me. One side of the binder was on each of our legs, and we were super close. I could easily lean forward and kiss her, if I wanted. Which I did. But was it too soon? She's getting harassed by her ex, I doubt she wants me to go and make things awkward between us. I sighed, and fought my temptations. "So, this is the nucleus. And if you look here, this is the mitchondrion...." Gab started going through the organelles of the cell, trying to help me. To be honest with you, I wasn't paying attention. All I could think about was that text from Marko. Gab can't know about it, she finally thinks things are going to be okay with her, I can't go make things bad again. She looked over at me, and smiled. "Everything okay?" I nodded, and smiled. "Never been better." "Okay." She smiled, and went back to talking about the parts of the cell. But, to be honest with you, I have never been so worried in my life...
