Chapter 2 - Man on the Bed

Rose yawned. Her eyes looked around. Her head was still a little sore from the Red Wine that the woman had gulped down so much last night. Rose was surprised and immediately realized that she was not in her room. And the room the woman was in now looked different.  Very different.

Her blue eyes seemed to want to leave their place because she looked at the figure of a man with a burly body right beside him now. The man slept soundly with the blanket covering his body.

Rose's body felt a little cold, the woman's hand reflexively checked inside the blanket. And she repeatedly averted her eyes from her own body which was without a thread under the blanket, then turned to the man who had his back turned to her who was also not wearing a single thread.

"What are you doing, Roseane?" Rose asked herself. Her head was really hurting now as she tried to remember what happened to her last night. The woman hit her head again lightly to try to remember what really happened.

"You have got up?" asked the man who had stretched his body and positioned himself to sit down. That man's smile really seemed scary to Rose at this moment.

The woman turned panicked and tried to find her bag. Rose had to immediately contact the bodyguard who was supposed to be guarding her last night at the bar and find out what really happened last night. Because Rose really doesn't know why she's in bed with a man who now has a sweet smile on his face but looks scary to her.

However, when Rose looked away again, what she saw were her own underwear and clothes lying on the floor. And men's clothing. Rose was sure, the other clothes besides hers that were on the floor belonged to the man with light gray eyes who was right next to her right now.

"Where's my bag?" asked Rose in a panicked tone as she searched for her bag.

"What bag?" Edward asked in disbelief. His bright gray eyes were now looking at Rose who had turned confused and desperately needed her bag.

"Rose, calm down," Edward said again, when Rose started to check into the blanket and now intends to get out of bed without a single thread.

"How do you know my name?" asked Rose with a sharp look.

"You told him last night. Did you forget? Wow Red Wine's effects are great!" Edward exclaimed in a cheerful tone now. A sweet smile was etched on his handsome face now.

"Did we last night..." Rose ended her sentence just as Edward was already nodding, answering yes to Rose's unfinished question.

"Oh shit!"

Rose was already ruffling her short hair in annoyance. That means they did it last night.  Rose really felt like she was caught cheating behind Damian's back now.

"Your head will hurt later," said Edward who had stopped Rose from ruffling her own hair again.  Rose had pulled her own hair because she felt stupid and also felt betrayed by her own fiancé.

"We did it!"  Rose shouted now almost deafening Edward's ears. Luckily the man booked a hotel with thick walls and soundproofing. Otherwise, this woman would embarrass her when she left the room.

"Yes. We did! What's wrong with that?" Edward asked cluelessly.

Immediately Rose picked up all her clothes. Her eyes looked at something black under the bed and picked it up. And sure enough the black thing under the bed was his bag. Now her steps led to the toilet not far from the bed they had previously occupied. Leaving Edward in confusion and many questions to the short haired woman. Roseane.

"Let me take you home," said Edward who was already holding Rose's hand. They were out of the hotel now.

"No need. All right, Justin.."

"My name is Edward," Edward said telling Rose his name for the umpteenth time this morning.  The man wondered why this woman couldn't remember her name at all?

"Whatever your name is. Let go of your hand. Don't try to be friendly and of course pretend this never happened!" said Rose in a firm tone.  Edward had already let go of his grip on Rose's hand.

"Can we meet again later, Rose?" Edward asked in a calm tone as he looked into the pair of bright blue eyes that he thought were very beautiful.

"Of course not. I'll never see you again after this. So pretend we don't know each other, Edward!"

Edward's eyes now turned a little sad. However, the man nodded as he returned his smile. Now somewhat confused, Rose had stepped away from the man with the bright gray eyes.  The woman just left Edward.
