"My room's being treated as a crime scene, I'll be crashing in Lexi's room until that's taken care of." Gionna says as her mother helped her into the Girls' Dorm. 51 year old Florence Cipriani had worked something out with Dr. Crabblesnitch and was staying in one of the empty dorm rooms until Gionna could walk without crutches.
"I called your Aunt Francesca, she's on her way over here… Toni should be back here soon." Florence says, helping Gionna into Lexi's dorm room.
"Hmm… I guess police are questioning Lexi, she was nearby when I was pushed out the window." Gionna says, Florence helping her sit down on the nearby bed that had a dark red and light grey comforter on it. Gionna leaned back against the pillows and carefully propped her leg up to take the weight off of her hip as Johnny walked in, him and Florence hugging.
"It's good to see you again, Johnny. I hope everything is going well with you." Florence says as they let go.
"Been a bit rough… Ashley and I broke up and Michael went and-" Johnny says, Gionna giving him a look that said "Don't tell her what happened, I'll handle it!".
"I'm sorry to hear about you and Ash, some people just drift apart…" Florence says before turning to Gionna. "As for whatever happened between you and Michael, I hope things will work out. I'm gonna go get settled in and catch up on some rest, you should do the same." She says before they hug and Florence leaves, closing the door.
"Damn, Johnny. You think my temper's bad, you obviously forgot the year that my mom went and quote "Talked things through." with Steve Haines's dad." Gionna says.
"I didn't forget that, she put the old bastard in the hospital with a broken jaw… but you've got to tell her eventually. Thankfully, that pill you took worked." Johnny says.
"Yeah… I'm not planning on being a mom for at least another 10 years." Gionna says, her phone chiming and her looking at it.
'Everything went okay with the cops, I'm on my way back.-Lexi.'
'Okay. Be careful, weather's getting bad outside.' Gionna replies, seeing a text from Lamar.
'Hey, tiny. You holding up okay?'
'Mostly. Out of the hospital, at least. Nothing's broken.' Gionna replies.
The next text was from Michael.
'Everyone's freaking out, most of the students are refusing to talk to the police.'
Gionna swore in Italian, Johnny laughing a bit.
"You always do that when you're pissed." Johnny says.
"Anton does the same thing but in Swedish." Gionna says.
At that time, Anton and Lexi were driving back to Bullworth Academy, both trying to figure out who would want to harm or even try to kill Gionna.
"That quarterback, Michael… do you think he-" Anton says.
"No! Hell no! What about that crazed Townie?" Lexi says.
"Trevor could've… but I don't think he and Gionna know each other all that well. What about that cheerleader… Amanda?" Anton says.
"Even if we could ask her, they took her to Bullworth General. She swallowed six pills of Vicodin, they think she might've tried to kill herself." Lexi says.
"She's on suicide watch now… what about Steve? After all, Gionna did embarrass him by knocking him down at the dance." Anton says.
"He had that coming but I just can't see him chucking a girl half his size out of a window just because she embarrassed him." Lexi says.
"Yeah, me either… it could've easily been one of the other Townies or Bullies. If it was one of the other Townies, they're motive would be revenge after what Johnny did a while back." Anton says, having heard of Trevor getting shot.
"Eh, Trevor had that coming for threatening Gionna at knife point." Lexi says.
Meanwhile…
"Sooner or later, you were gonna fall asleep." Johnny says quietly, pulling the comforter over Gionna after she had changed into a grey racerback tank top and dark red slightly oversized lounge pants. Johnny heard a knock at the door, walked over and opened it, seeing his ex.
"Look, Johnny, can we just talk about this?" Ashley asks.
"There's nothing to talk about and Gionna's asleep so either keep it down or fuck off!" Johnny whispers harshly, trying to keep Gionna from being woken up.
"There is something to talk about, like how you always spend more time with that fucking kid than you did with me!" Ashley yells, not caring that she woke Gionna up.
"Is there a reason you're here or are you just high on Meth again, you psycho bitch?!" Gionna says angrily, pulling herself up out of the bed and hobbling around a bit as Florence stormed over to Ashley.
"Is there a problem here?" Florence asks in a tone that meant "You either say what you want to say or fuck off!", Johnny immediately grabbing Ashley by her arm and dragging her out of the building.
"So this is what it's come to, huh? You choosing that little bitch over me?!" Ashley yells.
"Is that why you fucking pushed her out the window?! The drugs finally wreck your brain or were you always planning on trying to kill her?!" Johnny yells.
At the same time, Franklin was straightening up his dorm room when he heard the shouting outside. Franklin pulled his Los Santos Corkers jacket on and walked outside, running over to Johnny and Ashley.
"Hey! Hey, enough!" Franklin yells, Johnny and Ashley stopping and Ashley storming off. "The hell was all that about, man?" He asks.
"That crazy bitch showed up outside Gionna's dorm room, started yelling at me and woke her up." Johnny says.
After some time and convincing her mom that she'd could use some time alone, Gionna got cleaned up and pulled on some clean clothes when she heard a knock at the dorm room window, looked up and saw Michael.
"What the hell are you doing here?! Johnny, Lexi or Anton could be back any minute!" Gionna whispers after opening the window and letting Michael in.
"I wanted to come check on you, just to make sure you're okay." Michael says, Gionna pulling her curls into a messy ponytail.
"Well, I'm alright… for the most part, not sure that I'll want to go back into my old dorm room after the crime scene tape is removed-" Gionna says, cut off by a knock at the door.
"Gionna, you okay in there?" Toni asks.
Gionna and Michael looked at each other, trying to figure out what to do next… if Gionna opened the door and Toni saw Michael, she'd know exactly how Toni would react.
