|Rose's P.O.V|
I silently giggle to myself whilst watching one of Joe Sugg's prank videos. Such a nice way to spend My day off.
Oh Joe...You're so perfect and handsome.
I smile as I watch Joe laugh at the victim, Caspar. However my mood was ruined when a message notification popped up, disrupting my video.
Laura: We're hanging out in the west wing, come join us loser ;p
I shrug and continue watching, only to see another message pop up.
Laura: Hurry ur ass up!
Laura: Mal ordered pizza, ur missing out!
My eye twitches at the last message.
Rose: It's 'You're'!
Laura: Bitch, im wasting my time txting u and this is how u reply? So ungrateful!
Rose: I'm too lazy and tired! :(
Laura: I dont give a shit! Hurry up before I get Lewis to drag u by the foot.
Groaning and muttering under my breath, I fix my wild hair and head out of my dorm room in my hoodie and black jeans. Walking towards the end of the girl's dormitory section, a door opens and my jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw Kyle walking out of Angelica's dorm.
He stares at me with a smirk and walks past, making sure to bump his shoulder with mine.
My hand flies to my mouth, covering it to try and force myself not to cry. I wont give him the satisfaction of my hurt feelings.
Taking a deep breath in, I let it out after five seconds and repeat three more times, calming down a bit. I lift my head up to continue walking only to see Angelica's head popping out of her door.
"Oh, Hi Rose. Can you do me a favour and give Kyle back his phone, he left it here." She smiles, sticking her bare arm out.
"Why can't you go, you have legs don't you?" I scoff, crossing my arms.
She laughs lightly, her voice sounding like a soft musical instrument. "I'm not bothered dressing up. I'm kinda lazy and my legs are sore!"
I choke on air, patting my chest whilst I tried to compose myself.
He had sex with this expired goat?
She frowns, staring at me. "Are you okay?"
After finally having calmed down from my coughing fit, I glare at her. "Give it to him yourself, you slut!" I roar angrily and stomp past her.
Okay, so technically she wasn't a exactly a slut, having only slept with like two guys but I was fuming, furious at Kyle himself. How dare he go around and become this identity he was given! They've captured Malcolm's parents so why is he still putting up with the whole bad boy facade?
"ROSE!" Laura attacks me with a hug, knocking me down backwards to the floor.
"Ow, get off!" I whimper in pain, trying to shove her off me.
"Woo!" Some kid named Caleb cheers, seeing our position.
My cheeks burned as I cover my face in complete embarrassment.
Laura, still sitting on me mind you, grins at Caleb and leans closer towards me, her face inches away from mine.
"Are you okay, boo?" She whispers, her hair shielding everyone from my sight.
"If you got off, I might be." I mutter, avoiding eye contact.
"What happened between you and...?"
I clench my jaw, feeling angry again. "Nothing." I spit out harshly.
Laura just stares at me with a frown then gets off, offering me her hand to help me up. Dusting myself up, I take a seat in between Lewis and Malcolm.
"Hey guys." I smile weakly.
Lewis avoids eye contact, scratching the back of his head. "I uhm...I'm sorry about the night of Kyle's party."
"You should be, you said some pretty stupid shit that night." I cross my arms, glaring at him.
"Wait what? I was talking about the.... kiss." He whispers the last part in my ear.
"So you don't remember what you said?"
"Uh no..."
I roll my eyes and shake my head. "I swear the next time I catch you drunk, I will peel your skin off using a vegetable peeler."
"Woah, Rosie is a savage chihuahua!" Malcolm chuckles, stretching his arm behind me.
I however, freeze.
Chihuahua.
Chi chi...
I sniff, quickly wiping my tears. Why does everything remind me of him?
"Hey, what's wrong?" Mal grabs my shoulders, making me face him. "Why are you crying?" He says softly, wiping my tears.
"I got it." Laura mutters, grabbing my hand and dragging me away outside under the big oak tree we used to sit under. It was perfect weather, with a cool breeze to accompany the warmth the sun provided.
I lean my head against her shoulder, closing my eyes tightly, desperately trying to forget about him as tears continued to silently pour out.
"What did that fucker do?" She grits out, rubbing my back soothingly.
"He remembered what happened, officially hates my guts and did the jumbo bumbo with Angelica." Sniffing, I explain the whole story of what happened between the two of us that lead to his disappearance and accident.
"Did you apologise?" She questions.
"I...I tried but he..." I choke on a sob as I cover my face, crying my heart out.
"He what?"
"He...he said that I... that I don't exist to him anymore..."
"That motherfucking bastard!" She roars angrily, getting up and stomping back inside.
"No wait!" I call out, running after her with my pathetically tear stained face.
"I swear to god, I will not rest till I have crushed his skull with my stilettos!" Laura fumes, trying to get her arm out of my grasp.
"No stop it! This is what he wants, can't you see? He wants me to get affected and hurt just like how I hurt him," I whisper, staring at the ground. "He wants me to come running back to him but I won't do that, he can go burn in hell."
Laura stares at me, nodding her head in understanding. "I understand, Rose, BUT STILL!" And that was when she bolted towards the boys dormitory, making it near impossible to catch up with the athletic brunette.
I groan in irritation and make my way after her. As soon as I was close to the door of his dorm, I crept quietly, noticing the door open half way. I however didn't want to be seen by him so I remained silent, standing near the door with my back against the wall.
"I know you still crave for my kisses." I heard Kyle say in a low husky voice.
"Don't be pathetic, I don't kiss the same guy for more than a week." Laura grits out, sounding agitated.
"Your eyes say something else though." There was a hint of smirk in his voice.
"You don't know me so shut the fu-mmph."
What happened!? Is she okay? Did he do something to her?
I almost ran in had it not been for what sounded like a slap, echo in the room.
"You dare touch me one last fucking time, Anderson and I'll fucking make sure-"
"What are you doing here Rose?" Malcolm's loud voice booms with laughter as he walks beside Lewis.
Oh crap!
I silently mime to them to shut up by doing all these random hand gestures but they didn't seem to understand. Not that it would have even helped, seeing as Kyle was leaning against the door frame, smirking, and fully aware of what I was doing. He almost seemed satisfied.
Fuck!
"Let's go." Laura grits out, grabbing my wrist and dragging me away from them.
♥
Later than night as I was lying in bed, I think back to what I saw yesterday at lunch in Malcolm's dorm. Maybe it was wrong timing and I just happen to see something that might of looked like something else when really it wasn't...
I wasn't exactly sure, but the questions were eating me alive.
"Psst, Laura?" I whisper in the dark, unsure if she was asleep or not.
"Yeah?"
"Do you know if...uhm if Lewis is, you know....uhm bi?" I say awkwardly, glad for the darkness that surrounded us.
She was silent for a few seconds before she spoke up. "I've always actually suspected he was gay, but every time I joke about it, he gets all angry. Our grandmother kinda disowned one of her daughters, so my youngest auntie, because she was lesbian. And Lewis and I are her favourite niece and nephew. So What I think is that he's afraid to accept who he is because of her."
I was honestly lost for words. I knew Laura had an aunt who was lesbian but to know that she was disowned by her own mother, is actually really upsetting.
"Why do you ask? Do you also suspect it?"
I bite my lip, feeling like I was betraying him in some way. "Well...I kinda caught him making out with...Malcolm and ran away before they saw me."
"NO FUCKING WAY!" She yells.
"Laura, shoosh befo- OUCH!" I groan in pain when she jumped on my bed, her hands landing on my stomach.
"Do you realise what this means!?" She squeals excitedly.
"Uhm, no-"
"It's time to call in the loooove Doctor!" She grins pointing to herself. "Aka, Cupid and you are," She pokes my nose lightly. "My assistant."
Curse my big mouth!
