~ Old Friends & Feelings~

pt.2

It's been way too long it seems since Pauly's been gone. Angel has been trying to forget it by dancing with Tasha but her curiosity gets the best of her.

Angel, "I'm goin to find Pauly. Will you be okay here by yourself?"

Tasha, "I actually see a cute guy over there. Find me when you get back."

Angel, "Okay."

Angel leaves Tasha to it and she wanders across the club. She sees a few of the housemates but decides not to bother them. After no success, she decides to use the bathroom before heading back over to Tasha.

When Angel comes out, she hears something in the last stall. She heard high heels pass but she paid it no attention. She is near destruction from all the drinks but she can't mistake what she just heard.

She mouths it to herself, "Pauly?"

She rolls her eyes. She knows him all too well and she covers her mouth to keep from laughing. She decides to mess with him and she creeps over to the last stall.

However, she didn't get a chance to really leave the stall because she hears the last stall door open. She runs back into hers and cracks it a little to see whom he's taken for his latest victim.

Her heart drops into her stomach when she sees Pauly leading Deena by the hand. She waits for them to leave out and then she comes out her stall. Immediately she follows them. When she sees them going over to the others, she holds off.

With Pauly and Deena they find the others and Pauly leans over to Mike since he's the only one not smashed.

"Where's Vin?"

Mike smirks, "Oh, he left with his new friend. Jenni, Rog, and I are gettin ready to head out to Steaks Unlimited. You rollin?"

Pauly, "Nah, I'll just wait back at the house for Vin' to get back if he's not already there."

Mike nods but then assesses the situation. Deena whispers something to Pauly and he nods yes. She then smiles and strokes his arm. They then walk off, Deena in front of Pauly.

Well, Mike is not the only one watching them leave the club together. The only difference is, Mike is partially laughing whereas, the other set of eyes are burning with anger.

-At the House-

It is a quarter to five in the morning when Ron and Sam finally pass out downstairs after barely making it in on their feet. Vinny comes in after an interesting night. He started out with the guy from the club but then he decided not to break his celibacy, he thinks, and he called it a night.

What took so long was that he was talking to two girls on the street. Vinny has been playing mind games with himself. Sometimes he's attracted to girls and other times he knows he has to be true to himself. The one girl is so adamant about coming home with him, that Vinny decides what the hell, he'll do it. If anything he just might see some girl-on-girl action. If that happens, he'll pass them off to either Mike or Pauly. Probably both since MVP has had no luck in the clubs.

Vinny comes in and leads the girls upstairs. He doesn't hear anything in their room so he figures they are either not back yet or they are passed out. Vinny then takes the girls up to the Smush Room door and he tells them to wait until he can spruce up a little.

Nothing can prepare him for what he sees next. Deena is face down-a** up and it ain't with Chris…

Vinny immediately closes the door back and looks at the two girls with both alarm and humor.

The one girl responds, "What?"

Vinny composes himself to answer.

"The room is ocupado right now, so…I'm sorry. It doesn't look like this is goin down tonight. "

The other girl says, "We can't go to your room?"

Vinny shakes his head, "We could but…just not tonight."

The girls look disappointed but Vinny is not in the mood anymore. He never intended to smash anyway, he was really saving them for Pauly or Mike after he had roused them up. Since Mike is not there, the fun is over.

Vinny escorts the ladies out and then he decides to sit post downstairs and wait for the others to come in so that he can make sure the same discovery he made does not happen again.

Not too much longer do Roger, Jenni, and Mike come in. Mike says what's up to Vinny and then Roger and Jenni stumble in. Mike is talking to Vinny trying to get the dirt on his night when Vinny sees the two making their way to the stairs.

Vinny interrupts Mike, "Where you two goin?"

Jenni, "To the Smush Room."

Of all the freakin nights! Jenni and Roger never have sex and they choose tonight to start. Vinny hops up and stops them.

Vinny, "I don't think that's a good idea!"

Jenni and Roger look at him, Jenni responds, "Why?"

Vinny is quick on his feet.

"Pauly's in there."

Jenni, "What? Why isn't he in your room? Tell him to get out."

Vinny, "I don't think that's possible right now."

Luckily Jenni gives it up. She rolls her eyes and pulls Roger back downstairs to the girls' room. When they disappear, Mike looks at Vinny.

Mike, "So Pauly found someone? When was this?"

Vinny, "I ran into some girls after the club and they came back with me. The one girl bailed but then I passed the other one off to Pauly."

Mike is dumbfounded. "You couldn't share the love with me?"

Vinny, "There was only one. I told you the other one bailed, I couldn't get her to stay."

Mike lowers his head but Vinny is just grateful that he bought the story.

Soon thereafter, Mike and Vinny head upstairs and get into their beds. After a moment, sounds can be heard from across the hall. Vinny just sighs and prays for the end of it.

Mike just laughs.

"At least one of us scored tonight. MVP is in the dug-out as of late."

Vinny agrees and scoots down in his bed.

Meanwhile, in the Smush Room other sentiments are shared as the heat between two bodies lain together intensifies the humidity in the room.

Breathing, "I love you always."

One of the only hands allowed to do so, run through spiked hair and he responds, "Love you too…I neva stopped."
