When Isabella got caught in the final trap, He refused to listen to her and insisted on solving the puzzle alone, resulting in Isabella scolding him for putting her in imminent danger. This caused Valentino to realize how his attitude has been hurting her feelings, and listen to her instructions to solve the puzzle and set her free. After they make it back to the surface, Valentino thanks her and compliments her on her puzzle solving skills, causing them both to blush, indicating that they have a mutual crush on each other.

In Starry Night, Valentino's crush on Isabella had grown noticeably more intense. He was surprised and happy to see Isabella at the Reyna's outdoor slumber party, and enjoyed talking and laughing together until Isabella told her story about the Tzitzimime. Valentino refused to tolerate Victor's rudeness simply because Isabella was there and wanted to make the most of it. During the campfire in the woods, Valentino was completely fixated on Isabella, from eagerly listening to her every word, to blushing profusely every time she leaned in closer to him.

Isabella tried to stop him, but Valentino tripped backwards knocking them both into the water. When they returned to the shore, Isabella called Valentino out on his ignorance and told him face to face that she liked him and no one else. Realizing the mistake he made, Valentino finally mustered the courage to tell Isabella that he liked her back, and how he was afraid that he wouldn't be good enough for her. To Valentino's surprise, Isabella held his hand and told him that he doesn't have to be afraid to like her anymore. The two blush and accept their true feelings for one another.

After interrogating Don and the frutas vendor, Isabella had to leave to meet her mom for "mani pedis", but promised Valentino that she will return when he's ready to solve the case. Isabella then gives him a kiss on the cheek, leaving him dazed and enamored. After losing sight of the fake Don, Victor and Valentino followed the trail to a dark cave, where they discovered the numerous fake-skins, as well as Isabella dancing happily around a roaring fire. The two were confused as to what she was doing in the cave until Isabella removed her fake-skin and transformed into her real, monstrous self, much to Valentino's horror. Valentino was so shocked by the revelation that he passed out after Isabella fled the cave.

In Starry Eyes, Valentino denied any possibility that the monster he saw was Isabella. While searching through town, Valentino realized that he never knew Isabella's phone number, where she lived or even met her family. With that, He began to have doubts about his crush's identity until Isabella suddenly appeared at Don Jalapeno's shop. Valentino rushed over to embrace his missing love interest, stricken with tears and concern. Still overcome with relief, Valentino believed Isabella's explanation, and accepted her invitation to meet her mother. Despite Xochi and Victor's warnings, Valentino defended his "girlfriend" and walked off into the desert with Isabella. When they reached the desert, Valentino expressed his concern for Isabella, who then took his hand and reassured Valentino that she was right there with him. Unaware of what she actually was, Valentino kept openly commenting on how repulsive the monster was to Isabella, prompting her to attack him and carry him off to the moon until Victor, Don, and Xochi stopped her. After a short scuffle, Valentino continued to question the monster about the "real" Isabella. When the monster confirmed that she truly was Isabella, Valentino was shocked and simply continued to deny it and restated that she was a monster. Feeling heartbroken and betrayed, Isabella fled into the sky towards the moon, leaving Valentino calling out to her in desperation.
