Rosette POV

Award of the most stupid teenager that ever existed, must go to me! I mean, who else?

Because I mean, how much more stupid can I be?

I groaned for the twentieth time while rolling on the bed.

My stomach was rumbling on and on and I was famished, but I didn't want to go downstairs. I couldn't bear to stand with Damon in the same room anymore.

As if the Lord heard my prayers, I heard the car sound coming from the garage and I shot out of the bed running to the window to see who it was.

A sigh escaped my lips as I watched Damon drive out of the garage and it felt like a part of me had been taken away from me.

It was a crazy feeling that I couldn't explain but one thing was for sure, I was completely relieved.

With Damon gone, I found my way downstairs to the dining table where the box of pizza was waiting patiently for me, my stomach grumbled once again at the sight of it and a small chuckle escaped my lips.

I dashed into the kitchen to get a plate when my phone beeped, and

This was the first time in ages that Susan was returning back from work at that time. Immediately i rushed to her and she broke down in tears, turns out the deal she was working on didn’t pull through.“I put in so much work into this baby, so many sleepless nights, and now all my efforts are now in vain, what am I supposed to do?” she added, sobbing against my chest.“We will sort it out my love, we will figure it out so please stop crying now, i have told you before, you don't have to do all this, we can live comfortably and you don't have to work at all” I replied.“Damon what are you saying?

"You are here? It's strange," she added again, without taking her eyes off me. I felt like she was scanning my face, waiting for me to make a mistake. "Em, I was passing, and I noticed the door was left open, and then I got curious to see what her setup looks like. It's nothing serious," the words slipped out of my mouth as I started moving toward the door before Susan could throw another question, but then she caught up with me. "Can I ask you something, Damon?" "Do I have a choice?" I threw back at her, my tone sounding harsh. "Damon..." "You can ask whatever it is you want to," I added again. "Tell me, have you ever been in here before?" Susan demanded. "What?" "I mean, is this your first time being in Rose's room?" She asked again. What do I say? "Yes, that is exactly why I was curi

I threw back at him while drinking in his entire body.But Damon wasn't reacting, almost like he was frozen and couldn't move.I clicked my tongue taking a step forward and it pulled Damon back to earth."You shouldn't be here, what are you doing here?" He asked again, as he turned off the shower.A small chuckle escaped my lips as I crossed my arms over my chest while leaning on the door."What's the hurry?" I asked, referring to the way he grabbed the towel."Are you out of your mind Rose?""Out of my mind? You know I have seen you, I mean I have had you in me, nearly twice, you don't have to be shy step daddy" I drawled out.I know I wasn't supposed to be flirting with him, not after he drew a line, but I couldn't help it.Damon was acting all tense and I expected he would reply to my tease but then he just tried to hide the phone."I want to see," I demanded."What are you talking about?"

I asked, my voice shaking; I was literally trembling."You heard me, Rose. I cannot continue to lie to your mother, and I do not want to stay away from you any longer. I want you, Rose; I need you in my life," Damon added again.The rate at which my heart was beating felt like it was going to jump out of my chest. Damon was professing his love for me. But what will happen to my mother? She will be heartbroken beyond words; I wouldn't be able to do that to her. She is my mother, for goodness' sake, and I know how crazy she is about Damon."Please... I can't do this, Damon; I'm sorry," I whispered, and then he kissed me.Instantly, my eyes shot open, and I sat upright, placing a hand on my chest to calm my racing heart, but it wasn't working."Damon," I muttered as my eyes adjusted to the da

I was surprised that, despite my reaction earlier, he still insisted on driving me to school. He was really fulfilling his role as my DADDY. Sighs.I got into the car, and within minutes, we were on the highway. The silence was thick and uncomfortable as I kept my gaze fixed outside, trying to find this pathetic city attractive."Rose, you know we don't have to do this, right?" Damon started, breaking the silence in the car."Do what?" I asked in response."It's your birthday, for goodness' sake, and it looks like we are mourning. We should be happy; I mean, you should be happy and full of smiles," Damon added with a smile on his face, but he didn't take his eyes off the road.I was still trying to process his words. How could he switch up so easily? I literally gave him an attitude, and then I acted cold towards him, and yet he was still

Damon asked."Yes, tell me something else Damon" I demanded and at that same moment, the waiter returned with our order.He was a fine young man and he had the Italian features written all over him. It was obvious he was trying to flirt with me especially with the way his eyes lingered on me and I was responding just to spite Damon.Riling him up and watching him fight for control has to be my favorite thing to do."I hope you enjoy your meal" The waiter said while flashing a smile at me."I'm sure we will, thank you so much" I added in response and then he left."I just hope it tastes as good as it looks, I would hate to disappoint my taste buds" I said inhaling the aroma of the meal."Well, I hope it's as salty as you want it to be," Damon replied curtly.My lips curled into a smile as I tr

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..."

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

    Rosette's POV After our little romantic dance in the sitting room, Damon and I found ourselves in the kitchen.While I refilled my water bottle, Damon munched on some snacks, there were lots of papers over the counter top, his glasses and his laptop."Can I ask you something?" "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

    Rosette POV.I kept tossing on the bed, endlessly, despite everything that has happened, for some reason I still couldn't sleep.I was thoroughly tired, but yet wide awake, the scene with my mom replaying over and over again in my head. Coupled with many others.The holiday was almost over, so was our pact with Damon. We had only two weeks and two days left.And with school resuming that means I will have to face Caleb and Rowland again. I already promised my mom that we are cool as friends, but it was far from it.Throughout the last semester, I spent half of it avoiding Kara. At some point, I avoided Caleb and now I was going to repeat it again?Exhausting.I wondered if he was also thinking about it the way the thought weighed in my mind.A small sigh escaped my lips as I sat up, turning the room lights on as I reached for my water bottle, only to discover that it was empty.A reason to go downstairs.I yawned, throwing my legs off the bed as I slipped my feet into my slippers, bef

    Rosette's POV "Hey baby, can I come in?" I heard my mother's voice, after about half an hour since I returned to my room."Yeahhh" I answered, sitting up while adjusting the bed covers.I spent the last thirty minutes trying not to think of whatever transpired downstairs as I busied my hands and mind by cleaning up the entire room.The door opened slightly as my mom walked in, her face dried and her eyes a bit red, a solid evidence of how much she had cried."What are you doing?" She asked, closing the door gently behind her."Nothing, just here" I answered, looking around."Are you hungry, should I heat up something for you?" She asked, sitting at the edge of the bed while smoothing her dress.An awkward tension crept its way into the room as an odd silence hung over us."Why is it always weird between us, I'm your mother I shouldn't be scared of you," My mother started again.A slight chuckle escaped my lips as I tossed a pillow towards her, "Why should you be scared of me?

I tried for months to hide this from Damon while contemplating if I was making the right decision or not.Only for Rose to walk in on me.And now they were both looking at me, like I was some sort of criminal and I hated how it made me feel."That makes no sense Susan, for what reason do you think he wants to be back in Rose's life? What if he wants you back?" Damon questioned."That's ridiculous, I don't have any feelings for Ronan, it's you I love, I love you Damon" I confessed, placing my hands on his chest, while pleading with my eyes."Susan....""I'm a mother Damon, everything I did, I did it as a mother, I only wanted stability in Rose's life, I just...""And what makes you feel like there is no stability in my life mom?

Why are the things you always do so hurtful and then you go ahead to say that you do it for me? How so? You go ahead and make some stupid unreasonable decisions and then say it's for me? I never asked for any of this Mom!""Easy easy Rose...calm down, I seriously have no idea what's going on here and can someone fill me in?" Damon said, wrapping his hand over my shoulders."Ask your wife why she is talking to that man, and promising him things that she will never be able to keep up too" I answered, before Susan could."What man?
