I couldn't help but wonder why I wasn't as excited as I was before when asked about the trip. Amelia on the other hand couldn't contain her excitement. She was shocked at the fact Vincenzo was so rich. I never really asked him what exactly he did but I'm 90% sure it's illegal.

"How are you not happy to go to Italy?" She asks, exposing her thick Australian accent.

"I guess I'm just tired." I fake yawn.

Rolling her eyes at me, she turns to look at Vincenzo. "Hey, Vinny!" She sings, grabbing Vincenzo's attention.

"Don't call me that." He snaps.

"Arabella and I are hungry." She whines.

"That's what you said 20 minutes ago and you ate Arabella's snacks." Luca chuckles.

She pulls out her phone and scrolls through social media. "I have a cute friend you can use as a rebound." She smirks showing me a picture of him.

I could feel Vincenzo's glares but I decided not to look back at him. "As cute as he is, I'm not really that interested, Lia." I sigh staring out the window admiring the light fluffy clouds.

"You don't have to be interested. You just have to be attractive. And you hit that qualification."

"How about we focus on finding you a boyfriend." I say grabbing her phone and looking through her Instagram.

She attempts to snatch it back but I hold her back. "Ooh, he looks cute and single." I tease.

"What's that supposed to mean?" She blushes collecting her phone back.

"Because if I'm not mistaken this looks like the same guy who I saw on your Snapchat. You know, the same guy you have named as 'Jake' with love hearts." I explain while laughing.

"You are such a bitch you noisy arse wipe." She curses.

"Rude," I mumble going back to looking out of the sky.

"Okay, fine. How about you go talk to a special someone who's been dying to talk to you." She whispers pointing at Vincenzo.

I look over at him to see him staring at me and then immediately looking away. I couldn't help but smile every single time he'd do that.

"I'm going to go use the bathroom!" She announces allowing everyone to go hear. I mentally facepalm myself as I watch her walk away.

I know she was expecting Vincenzo to come sit next to me, but the guy is too proud for that. I go back to looking outside when I finally feel a presence next to me.

A small smile coats my face. "Mr Varallo," I say turning around only to realize it was Luca. "Oh, sorry." I say disappointed.

"It's fine. I'm pretty sure he isn't going to talk to you." He explains.

I think back to when I insulted him in the car and instantly remember why he's been ignoring me. "Did he tell you?" I ask, shyly.

He shakes his head letting me calm down. "Can you tell him I'm sorry?"

"Don't you think it'd be better if you actually go speak to him?" He questions allowing me to feel dumb.

My mind drifts back to that amazing kiss we shared in his room. Why did I have to be such a bitch sometimes?

I pull a strand of hair behind my ear. "I'm going to go get a drink." I say even though I'm sure he didn't hear me. Walking over to the area where the drinks were I grab a wine glass and pour something into it.

"Let's hope this won't kill me," I mutter gulping the whole thing down. The burning sensation felt like it just destroyed my throat. I begin coughing until I'm finally able to catch my breath.

"I didn't know you drank?" A familiar voice asks, causing me to start grinning like an idiot while my back still faced him.

Ah, they're going to Italy! I've always wanted to go to Italy, to be honest.
