Damon's POV

"She was very polite when she asked for my contact and she is Rose's best friend right? I thought it wouldn't mean anything until she started pestering me."

"That's not what it looks like here Diego, you entertained her for a while and it seems she got it all in her head" I countered reading the messages on his phone.

When I got to Diego's house, he was sober and waiting with a cup of black coffee for me, and so immediately I got down to the business of the day.

I told him everything Rose told me and demanded answers from him, and then he went ahead to hand over his phone to me so I could through the messages directly.

So at the beginning, it was casual talk, Kara reaching out and just exchanging pleasantries until Kara started pushing forward.

"I gave her my attention for twenty hours and she fell in love? That's insane, look read properly at a point she was starting to pester me and I had to tell her about Evelyn, I thought she would deter but she was quite persistent."

    Rosette's POV.It's been a long time since I had so much fun, doing the little things.Little things, like getting my hair washed and trimmed at the same time, getting my nails done all with my mom.My mom was almost done with her nails when she received a call from the office, calling her back to the office and so she had to go back while I returned home alone.She begged me to come along with her but I was already spent for the day, plus I was yet to study at all, so we said our good-byes and went our separate ways.When I got back home, Damon wasn't back and so I decided to study in the kitchen while having my ice-cream.After some time, my phone rang, it was a call for Kara and with all excitement I answered it."Hey Kara" I chirped, closing my textbook as I dropped my pen as well, giving her call utmost importance."What kind of a person are you Rose?" came her harsh reply as the smile on my face dropped instantly."Excuse me?""You heard me right! I told you something and you we

    Damon's POV."What do you mean by that?" Rose questioned flatly."After I gave her all the warning, that's exactly what she told me, that she knows that there is something going on between us" I answered, taking a spoon out of Rose's ice cream."I don't understand how you can be so laid back about this..." Rose started again, her voice laced with dread, panic written all over her face."Do you believe that? She is only saying it to get to us Rose, all you have to do is ignore her and stay away from her," I replied, savoring the flavor of the ice cream.I couldn't remember the last time I had ice cream, and here I was casually eating from her tub like it was my favorite snack.Rose was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice this. "What exactly did you say to her?" Rose asked again."Something along the lines of her being a liar and saying rubbish, but we need to be very careful, extra careful" I added again."Will that solve anything?" She asked again."For now, yes. You

You have been taking a lot of unnecessary permission, you can go ahead to say whatever you want" Damon answered without lifting his eyes up from the note."What's your birthday date?" I blurted out."4th of July" Damon replied almost immediately."Are you serious?" I asked again in disbelief."Yes, hard to believe?" Damon added as I nodded."What's your favorite snack?" I asked again."Meat pie, what about you?"I never expected Damon to ask me in return, it felt like he was also interested in knowing me as I was in him."Cake," I muttered."Okay, let's go to the second part now shall we?" Damon started, opening up my textbook."Yess" I shrugged, keeping mute as he started the explanation again.Okay, so I lied. The only reason I asked Damon to teach me, was so we could spend more time together.Plus it

    Rosette POVBy the time I was up the next morning, my mom was already on her way to New York.Last night, Dinner ended up in the most awkward way and I couldn't even tell what the reason was exactly.But it felt like Damon wasn't cool with the impromptu trip she had to take, but in the real sense, there was no difference between her being here or away.Okay, a slight difference, because lately she's been having a lot of free time on her hands and so she was mostly home.I checked the time on my phone, it was quite early, but I had to be in college, later in the day, but first I needed to find Damon.I brushed my teeth and walked out of the room, heading towards the kitchen but to my greatest surprise, he wasn't there.A frown crept its way to my face as I turned around heading towards his room, could it be that he was still asleep?When I got to the room, I peeped through the door hole, but the room was empty as well.Plus there was no sound of water coming from the bathroom which mea

    Rosette's POV Two classes done, two more to go. So glad I came out with my headset at least it helped with drowning all the noise around me so I could focus more on my books.I didn't want to think about anything, not about Damon, Kara or even Caleb. I just wanted to be on my own without thoughts running through my mind.It was easier for me to go through my first two classes, because of Kara's absence, but the next two classes I have, I wondered just how bad it's going to be.I'm not saying it's going to be bad. I mean who knows? Kara might be over her rage now and possibly we will be able to talk things out or not.At this point I don't care.Right now, I'm simply letting whatever goes go, and whatever comes be.I had no energy left to go after things that don't want me."Hey" someone tapped me from behind and I had to remove my headset."It's time for the next class," the girl said to me before walking out.I muttered a small thank you to her even though she didn't hear me as I g

    Rosette's POV."Can you just be direct with me? I was literally worried about you and you were hanging out?" Caleb countered."It was a coincidence, I didn't plan to meet Rowland there but I just met him and Kara was the only reason why I went to the bar, and this was like two days ago" I explained, looking at him with nothing but disappointment.I had no expectations from him or our so-called relationship but for the fact we were friends even before he fell in love, he should at least have some faith in me.Scrap that. My conscience pricked me as I lowered my eyes, I was doing worse and here I'm feeling bad for his reaction.A small lump grew in my throat as I swallowed hard. "I went to the bar to meet Kara for some work, we had an argument and she left, my food had just arrived, I couldn't leave it and at the same time, Rowland came along, what was I supposed to tell him?" I continued, narrating everything that happened that night for the second time."Listen...""I don't understand

I couldn't even see her before she left for college this morning because of Susan.Nothing else mattered to her well except her work. One minute she puts in efforts towards her relationship and then she fails to be consistent with it.Last night after dinner, we all retired to our room, but then to give her some space I headed towards my study to work but then she came after me."Are you upset?"

    Rosette POV.When Damon said driving lessons, I thought he was taking us to the field we used the last time, but this one was different, and it was quite far from the college, like it was at the extreme end of the town.By the time we got here, it was already evening, thank goodness I told Caleb I would call him instead of meeting up, also because I needed some space to just get over everything Kara said and did.But right now, all I have to do is focus on the moment, to this lovely place Damon brought us too.It was an open field, so large that I couldn't see the end of it. He parked his car at the corner of the field, under the shade of the tall umbrella trees that provided a warm shade.I followed Damon out of the car, as he opened the trunk and that was my real surprise.A picnic!There was a mat, two coolers whose content I do not know, and a basket of fruits.I let out a small squeal as I hugged Damon, squeezing him as tight as I could.In that moment, I forgot about everything

"No, you have my attention" my mom answered, throwing her legs out of the bed.After grabbing my snacks from downstairs, instead of heading to my room I decided to drop by and check on my mom.Luckily for me, I didn't have to knock because the door was slightly open and when I peeped in, she caught me and asked me to come in."I just wanted to apologize for everything" I started, fixing my eyes on the floor."Will you ever get tired of hating me?" She threw back at me instead.Immediately my eyes widened, "I don't hate you" the words slipped out of my mouth."You don't?""Mom...""Will I ever be that to you and truly be it? Every second our relationship takes a step forward, something comes up and we take three steps backwards, it's exhausting" she added again.This time around, she was so right. I was teary, but didn't want to show it so I wiped the corner of my eyes stylishly."I don't want us to keep going ba

She didn't even spare me a glance and now I was starting to feel bad for everything I said earlier, even though a part of me knew that I couldn't blame her entirely for it, it just felt easier putting it all on her.I took a deep breath in, turning around when I met Damon, he was angry at me, as he crossed his arms over his chest."You need to stop Rose," he started."I....""You are hurting but you aren't the only one suffering, your mom isn't happy about this either and so you cannot continue with this attitude," he added again."I can't help but feel that way..." I countered."And I'm not saying your feelings aren't valid, all I'm

Mom countered, her hands resting on her hips."Of course you can mom, but then when you... just forget it, can we go inside, there is something I need to discuss with you" I added instead.Arguing with Susan was pointless.We could never agree on something together.Our views were just so different and poles apart."Alright then, go in, I will join you" she said, looking away."Mom, can you please not do that right now? Okay I'm sorry, but this is important," I insisted."How important?""Ronan"At the mention of his name, my mom's hand dropped as she turned around, like she was in search of him."Ronan? Did you see him around here? Did he talk to you?""What are you talking about mom?" I asked, covering the distance between

I asked, shivers running down my spine as Damon's hands moved up my thighs. And my legs? They fell open on their own.I was squirming hard on the car seat but then trying hard not to show it."You will get yourself distracted Damon, we are on the road for Christ sake!" I protested, hiding the smile that threatened to break out of my lips."Let me worry about that, right now my only focus is you, so spread those legs wider for me my sweet Rose, I want to feel you..." He said without taking his eyes off the road but for some reason I felt like he was watching me."Damon..." I whimpered as he pushed my panties aside, his thumb coming in contact with my clit."Hmmmm" he hummed in approval, stroking me, and then he plunged two fingers inside of me.My eyes flew open instantly, a loud moan escaped my lips, from the corner of my eyes I

    Damon's POVOnce the meeting was over, I rushed back to the last office where Rose was waiting for me, and to my greatest surprise, she was asleep.The last few weeks have been hell for me. Not just me but us. A lot of mental and emotional stress coupled with that emptiness creeping in my heart.My eyes raked all over her body, taking her sleeping figure in as I memorized the image of her, storing it in the deepest part of my heart, so I can never forget.Just because, a part of me knows that she would always remain there.Last night, when we danced, I could see her eyes pleading with me not to end things, but what would be of me if I didn't?A cheat?A mother fucking backstabbing liar?Everything we have done so far was... forbidden and wrong.But then putting an end to it, felt so right.Too right.And so I made up my mind that no matter what happens, once the 100 day mark comes, I will go very far away from her. Before we destroy ourselves.I wanted to make these last moments in o

His secretary followed behind me.Instead of heading home, I changed my destination and came over to Damon's office.I remembered he told me that he was going to be here today for an important meeting and unfortunately that meeting was going on at the moment.My mouth fell open as my eyes danced around the men, or rather investors sitting around the table in their fancy daper suits."It's okay Jane, I will handle it" Damon said rising from his chair as he adjusted his suit without taking his eyes off me."I'm sorry I had no idea...I thought she was just trying to..." Before I could complete my statement, Damon grabbed my arm, placing a finger on his lips as I went silent."Excuse me gentlemen, I will be right back" He said, pulling me out of the office.Once we were out, I found the courage to speak again, "Damon please, I didn't mean to ruin your

Rowland asked placing his hand on my shoulder."Yes" I managed to utter, but I was far from okay, I was suddenly so self aware as I continued looking around."So, what's the answer?" Rowland asked again."Can we leave here?" I countered, putting my phone back into the bag."Emm...is that like a yes?""No...that's like a we should leave now, we need to hurry" I answered grabbing his hands as I started walking fast."Rose..calm down" Rowland called after me but I didn't stop, I kept pulling him and just as we got to the gate he suddenly stopped."Come on Rowland, this is important please..." I said, turning to face him."You know I would go anywhere with you right? But I have a class and I cannot miss it" Rowland stated, taking me by surprise."You have

He asked with a small smile on his face, so that the professor doesn't suspect anything."We have nothing to talk about please" I replied, placing my hand over his as I stylishly removed his hand."You don't have to do this Rose, you know...""Is everything okay Rose? Rowland you can come in, I have been waited for you" the professor interrupted saving me unknowingly."Everything is fine, I will take your leave now" I answered before he could speak up and then I walked out of the office.I sighed, feeling relieved as I walked out of the building, I know avoiding an issue is never th

"Sure""Is everything okay with you? I mean with work and all, you have been way too busy and engaged with it recently so..."Damon sighed, taking a deep breath as he dropped the bowl of chips in his hands, "Actually work is crazy but there's nothing you should be worried about" "Well, it's just that I have never seen you work so hard and you look worried mostly" I pointed out.Damon forced a smile as he walked closer to me, "I will handle everything, and that's enough about me, what are your plans for tomorrow?" He asked, tracing my cheeks with his thumb."Well...I was going to drop by at school, start my registration for the next semester and after that, mom and I are going to the dentist" I answered."Hmm
