------------------~[ROSE'S POV]~---------------------
His lips on mine, his warm hands gently carresses my body. I am going insane. I am craving for all of him. I wrap my arms tightly around his neck kissing him like my life depends on it. I don't want to let him go. I am afraid this could be a dream. I don't want it to stop.
Soon, a loud knock startles me and I jerk awake in bed. I look around sharply. Shit. It is a dream. I clasp my palm against my face and sigh. I touch my lips trying to reminisce about what I felt in that wonderful dream. The knock on my hostel door is loud this time. I look at the door and walk up to it. I unlock it and open it to see Brittany staring at me furiously.
“You are a sick girl." She says and walks in. I sigh.
" Well. You are welcome.“ I reply and shut the door.
She sits on my bed and glares at me in an angry manner. I rub my eyes sleepily and join her. “What is it?"
She bites her lip. “I can't believe you still feel not guilty about what you did.“
I look at her and frown. " What did I do?“
She looks at me and blinks. “Are you a silly girl? You were having a time with Christian and you just left him in the hands of that silly slut. Seriously?“
I sigh deeply and scratch my head. " Well. I didn't really leave him. I just…I just kind of gave him some space.“
" Space from what? In fact, that was the moment he needed you Rose. You just ditched him.“
I chuckle and sigh. " Point of correction. Christian Jake can't and can never ever need me. He has all he wants, I'm just……I'm just….“
She folds her arms and examines me. " You are what?"
I sigh. “Look. I'm nothing to him okay. Skylar is by far way better than I am. I'm just another skunk in the sack. Look, let's forget this okay. What could go wrong?“
She chuckles. " What could go wrong? He's angry with you.“
My head snaps and I look at her. " What? W-why? He has no right to be angry with me."
She scofs. “I wish I could slap your skull. He has every right Rose. We were all having a good time and then some slut shows up and you just left him in the hands of the slut.“
I sigh. “So you are saying he didn't do anything after I left. He sent her away?“
She blinks and bites her lip. " Well. They did go out."
I feel my chest squeeze. " Great. So you see I am right. He didn't need me. Maybe Skylar was what he wanted and she came at the right time so the case is closed.“ I mutter and looked away taking a deep breath.
Brittany examines me. “I don't know why you are acting all nonchalant towards this. But I have to tell you. I have this feeling Christian has it all for you. Don't keep pushing him away.“
I scoff. " Come on. We just met yesterday, Brittany. What are you talking about? And besides, it's none of my business. I have to focus…….on my school work.“ I mutter and look away.
" All the same. Leaving the way you did while we were all having a good time was rude. You have to apologize to him. Believe me, he was furious when I looked at him. Maybe that's why he took Skylar out.“
I grit my teeth. " That's not true Brittany.“
She sighs. " I give up on you. You are so……aaargh. Forget it. Whatever. Your call. I came to give you this. I took it from him but he doesn't know I want to give it to you. Here.“
I turn to see her handing me a little paper. “What's that?"
“Take it." She mutters.
I examine her and take the paper from her. There is a phone number written on it. I blink and look up at her. She nods.
“Yeah. That's his phone number. Keep it or store it on your phone. Any time you feel you need him or something. You give him a call.“
I bite my lip. " D-did he give you to give it to me?“
She scoffs. “Nah. No. I said I took it from him. He doesn't know I'm giving it to you though.“
I sigh deeply and shrug. " Well. I don't see the need……"
“There is every need, Rose. Because you haven't been yourself ever since he showed up on campus. And that can only mean one thing. You are head over heels for him.“
I scoffs. " That's not possible…….."
“Rose!!!" She says rather harshly and I turn sharply to her. “I'm your friend. Don't you dare lie to me."
I gulp and look away. " Alright. Okay. I may have a little teensy weensy crush on him but it's nothing. And in a matter of time, it will die off. There is certainly no way Christian Jake of all will take a liking to me. So give it up.“
She bites her lip and examines me. " Okay. If you say so. But uh….I won't assume that if I were you." She says and turns to go.
I sigh deeply.
" See you tomorrow in geography class. And I mean early. Don't go running off with my boyfriend.“
" What?“ She leaves and shut the door.
I stared at the closed door for a while and chuckle. Silly girl. I glance at the paper in my hand. I take my phone and type down the number……but what can I use to save it?
I bite my lip. I type, MY MUSIC HONEY….. I shake my head and delete it. I type, MY LONG TIME CRUSH………shit. I shake my head and delete it again. Aaargh. Why am I getting so worked up with just picking a name to save his number? Not like he's going to see it anyway. I sigh and finally typed, C.JAKES. Yeah. That suits it just fine. It's his popular name anyway.
