Vanessa woke up alone in her bed feeling around for the warmth that she should be feeling right about now, where was the comfort of strong arms she had fallen asleep so soundly in? Vanessa's emerald eyes searched the room for any sign of him, there were none.
"Vanessa, how are you feeling?" the warm voice of her mother came in soft tone barely above a whisper. Vanessa rubbed her eyes like a small child.
"I'm feeling okay. Have you seen Chuck around?" Vanessa asked she saw Serena standing the doorway a small frown on her friends face.
"I haven't seen him only earlier when he carried you in. Listen Vanessa, I don't want you near that boy he isn't good news. From what I hear he is nothing but a pervert. I even heard he tried to rape Jennifer Humphrey at one of Blaire's parties. Is that really the kind of man you want to be with? One that you can't trust, one with a history you know so well" Angela said.
Serena stood in the doorway in shock of the words that her mother just said. 'It never occurred to me that V was to a victim of being bent to her mother's will. I always thought their relationship was great. But now I see that she is just a piece in one of her mothers games.' Serena thought as she watched Vanessa's face changed her eyes wide and hurt, her lips in a small frown.
"Get out, mother," she said laying back into the bed. Angela smiled at Serena as she exited the room
"V, you know that was a long time ago. Chuck has changed since he met you. He is absolutely fascinated by you. I can promise you because his group of whores has literally been abandoned" Serena said trying to assure her she could trust him.
"You know S. I really believed that maybe there would be some kind of way that I could just ignore his existence, especially when you told me about his whole reputation. Still I couldn't keep myself from falling for him. S. I'm such an idiot. But this has to end somewhere right?" Vanessa said looking at Serena.
"Give him another chance, think about it ok" Serena said going over and hugging Vanessa.
Three Weeks Later
Chuck stood against a brick wall, 'How is it possible for me to care this much about a stupid girl? Why do I find it slow torture whenever she walks passed me without even a glance? Wait…Why is she ignoring me like the plague?' he thought then he caught a glimpse of her long dark hair as if by reflex he caught her wrist grabbing her hand. Vanessa's green eyes looked into the deep brown of his.
"Why have you been ignoring me? Avoiding me?" he asked with a slight urgency in his voice.
"My mother doesn't want me near you. She'll take me back to live with her," Vanessa said to him.
"Do you listen to everything that your mother tells you to do?" he asked slightly amused as he pulled her close to his chest so that they were pressed together like a puzzle, perfectly fitting.
"Of course not" Vanessa said as she felt his warm breath on her lips. Snap. Chuck captured her lips in a kiss as he loosened his grip on her wrist. Snapped. Vanessa kissed him back letting their fingers intertwine. This kiss began to deepen and soon his free hand was on her waist and hers was running through his short locks. Snap. Vanessa pulled away their eyes locked on each other as they separated. Chuck continued to hold her hand as they walked into the school, he let go of her hand and took off his scarf, and Vanessa looked at him raising a brow. He cupped her face with one hand and kissed her again. Snap. Then he wrapped his scarf around her.
"Now everyone will know that we are together and you're my girl" Chuck said to her, Vanessa smiled at him and kissed his cheek before running into her class. Chuck smiled to himself and walked away to his own boring class before he got to English with her. Vanessa sat in her chair Hazel and Amy sat besides her giving her dirty looks. Vanessa smiled at them coolly while fingering Chuck's scarf in front of their jealous faces Serena ran up to her in the hallway before class.
"Oh my gosh, he gave you his scarf he is serious about you I've only seen that scarf leave his side when he goes to take a shower" Serena smiled at Vanessa.
"Yup he did. I heard about Miss. Humphrey's little break down, hope it wasn't to bad" Vanessa said Chuck crept up behind her snaking his arms around her waist and kissing her exposed neck. Serena looked at Vanessa as she blushed.
"Hmmm…its too bad that he is to busy after school to go bra shopping with me" Vanessa said knowing that he wouldn't pass up the opportunity. "That sounds enchanting" he said nibbling on her ear with his teeth. Serena kind of just watched Vanessa let her body lean against him her head on his shoulder.
"Well we are going to be late, later S" Vanessa said pushing Chuck from her with a laugh, Chuck followed her taking his seat behind her. Vanessa sat in her seat watching the teacher scribble on the board. 'Summer vacation is coming up' she thought as she felt Chuck take a strand of hair and twirl it between his fingers, this meant bathing suit season was coming up and she didn't feel so secure in one, at least not after Westley. The bell rang granting everyone's wishes. Blair came up slightly gasping at Chuck's scarf around her cousins shoulders, she smiled and then walked off with Nate his arm around her. Vanessa smiled at Chuck as he wrapped his arm around her waist possessively. 'Its time to go bathing suit shopping, but I do need a new bra too' Vanessa thought as they began to walk off to Chuck's limo.
Spotted, Looks like C has finally given his scarf away but is it to just anyone or is it to someone he cares about? V maybe, I would very much love to watch this unfold what drama is waiting for me to spotlight their pains in. V watch out this fish is known for breaking hearts, C becareful if you fall to hard she'll walk away. Just like a Fox to play with their food before they devour it.
