Rosette POV "Place your order ma'am, I will prepare anything you demand" Damon said, bowing slightly, imitating that act of a waiter.I threw my head back in laughter, while picking my shirt across the counter, I winced as my legs rubbed against each other and then I threw a look at Damon who had a smirk on his face, like he was proud of the state I was in."Cocky" I muttered underneath my breath, while draping the shirt over my body."Say something?""Nothing " I replied, taking my seat on the stool by the counter."So what do you want?" Damon asked, walking towards the refrigerator, shirtless.Now my memories of this kitchen were ruined, my lips spread into a smirk as my fingers danced on the counter."Something simple," I answered, biting my lips as I replayed our sex scene in my head, even the thought of it made me wet."Simple? There are a lot of simple dishes, just tell me what you want, be specific." Damon countered."Emm, steak roll? Since we already have cooked steak, we can
Damon's POV"Do you have a problem with it?" I threw back at her, watching her face carefully. "Of course I do! I don't want you to think that I like Caleb, I do not like Caleb, everything I did was...""Relax, saying it a thousand times doesn't change a thing, I understand and I know you don't like him, but you don't have a reasonable reason not to be with him" I added again.How cliche. Is the fact that she is fucking me not a tangible reason why she shouldn't be with anyone else other than me?"What exactly are you trying to say Damon? I don't understand any of it" Rose countered, staring at me with a frown on her face."Your mother is in support of Caleb..."I stated."Doesn't mean a thing Damon!""How many days do we have left?" I threw at her again, raising this sour topic but we just have to face it, regardless."What do you mean how many days...?" Rose stuttered as her eyes widened with fear and a bit of emotion I couldn't decipher."We have Eighty five days left Rose, before
Rosette's POV."Are you here to see me or my Granny? You have to pick one" Kara declared with a firm tone as I stepped into the house."Does it matter? I'm here after all, to see you and Granny, I'm such a sweet soul" I threw back at her, throwing myself on the couch."I still cannot believe you are here, I have been to your house, multiple times, and you are just coming to mind now, did something happen?" Kara questioned, taking a seat opposite the couch on which I laid on."Something like?""Anything could happen, I'm just asking," Kara added, rolling her eyes."Stop being dramatic Kara, and I'm sorry for just coming now, life happened" I replied, shaking my head but I still couldn't get rid of thoughts my mind kept conjuring about Damon and all."Well, I just ordered pizza before your arrival, will you have some?" Kara asked."Nah. I had steak rolls with Damon before coming over" the words rolled out of my mouth."Damon is home?" Kara questioned, a bit surprised."Yes, why?" I thre
Rosette's POV"Damon, is that you?" The words slipped out of my mouth."Yes Rose, it's Damon, it's already late, he came over to pick you up" Kara confirmed it and immediately I sat up, the sleep completely gone from my eyes.She was right.Damon was here, dressed all black with a frown on his face as he stared at me."Hii" I muttered trying to gather myself together as my eyes landed on the clock.Fuck!I've been asleep for five solid hours. No wonder Damon had to come get me."Ready to go?" Damon questioned without taking his eyes off me."Yes, I just need a minute" I replied, packing my hair in a bun as I stood up from the couch.I staggered a bit but Kara was quick to hold me, "Thank you," I said."Yeah, you need to wash your face, you look like a mess," Kara pointed out.Urghhh.I knew this already but why did she have to say it out loud, I threw a glance at Damon who was fighting off a smile."Thank you" I retorted before fleeing out of the living room.I found my way to Kara's
Rosette's POV"So what are we watching?" I asked, taking my seat on the couch."What do you want to watch? You can pick any movie of your choice" Damon added."Are you going to watch any movie I pick?" I couldn't help but ask again, just to be sure."Most definitely, so what's your choice going to be?" Damon threw back at me."Okay," I said softly, picking up the remote as I scrolled through the available movies, before settling for a drama series."Sure about this?" I asked Damon again."Yeah. College romance I see" Damon pointed out as the series started to play."Yes, I have been seeing the trailers all over the net for the past two weeks now" I answered, adjusting myself on the couch as I covered my legs with the blanket."Seems interesting," Damon said, throwing his arm over my shoulders so casually.I stilled for a second, and then I turned to look at Damon but his eyes were glued to the screen. Without saying a word, I leaned into his embrace.The series started and the movie w
Damon's POVWas I being selfish?Not at all.All I'm trying to do is play it safe with Rose, so at the end of all this, she might be saved. But I had no assurance that I would be.None at all.Right now, she claims she doesn't have any feelings for Caleb, but who knows? Along the long run she might and then she will be able to get over this thing with me.What lies we tell ourselves."I seriously want to get my body back into shape, and I don't necessarily have to work out with you, there is a gym down the street, I could enroll there" Rose chipped in."Oh really? But that would be a waste of money you know right? We have all the equipment here at home and a capable coach," I said, tapping her nose lightly."Okay then, if you say so, I guess you are right," Rose added, trying to contain her laughter but then she failed miserably at it.We both broke out in laughter, I was laughing so hard that tears spilled out of my eyes.That was how content and free I felt with Rose, whenever she
Rosette's POV.I woke up this morning, feeling blissful and lighter. I cannot remember the last time I woke up with a smile on my face and nothing but pure happiness, coursing through my veins.A small yawn escaped my lips as I stretched lightly on the bed. Memories from last night flooded my brain instantly and if possible, my smile grew even wider.Urgh...Why did I fall asleep during the movie? I rubbed my temples in a circular motion while trying to imagine how lovely Damon carried me into my room.I didn't need a mirror to see how red I was at the moment but I had to snap out of my thoughts immediately my phone beeped."Fuck no" I groaned on seeing the reminder on my phone. It was already noon!.I had totally forgotten about today and the date with Caleb and the concert with Diego which unfortunately I will not be attending.Plus, I haven't even informed my mother yet about my date with Caleb.Immediately I threw my legs out of the bed as I rushed into the bathroom.I washed my
Rosette's POV "Don't let him hit on the first date, you know that right?" My mom chipped in, while brushing my hair. How did we even get here? When I asked her to tell me what transpired between her and Damon, she couldn't respond, instead she offered to dress me up and I couldn't decline and so I decided to let it all slide."Mom?" I yelled as my eyes widened at her blunt words. By the way, there is no way I will be having sex with Caleb, it's totally out of question.And my mom? She took it upon herself to get me dressed for this date even though I told her countless times that I could dress up myself, but for some odd reason she felt like it was her duty to do so.She was even more excited than me like she was the one going out on a date.Kara wanted to come over and help me, but with my mom fussing over me, I wouldn't be able to deal with both of them at the same time."I'm just saying, take it as an advice," she added again."So you are giving me the go ahead to let him
Rosette's POV."I will tell you everything you need to know, next time, you are worried sick about your mom and we shouldn't delay any further right?""Yes," I answered."Hop on then"We mounted the bike and Rowland took off, after he was sure that I was comfortable, I took a last glance at his home, before dragging my eyes away to concentrate on the road.We couldn't talk much due to the cold breeze. Also, Rowland had this serious expression while driving and I didn't want to distract him.In less than twenty minutes, my house came in view and my heart beat increased tremendously. I tried not to overthink the situation and hoped that my mom was still asleep.The lights were still off, which could mean two things, either good news or not.I hopped off the bike while removing the helmet and then handed it over to Rowland."You don't need to walk me to the house," I said."You didn't even let me offer, can't wait to get rid of me?" He threw back at me."Are you serious right now? I woul
Rosette POV "Thank you so much, for picking me up, the food and the clothes, it means a lot to me" I said, picking up the plates.I wanted to leave after Rowland returned with his 'wild animal' but he insisted that I wait till the rain stopped and so we had dinner with the burnt sauce.I offered to make a new one, but apparently he was out of ingredients, and so we chugged the food down with zero choices."You look good in it though," Rowland answered."Really? I was going to ask who they belong to cause they look so girly to be yours" I added."It should be Rosa or Lisa, I don't know...""What did you just say?" I asked, freezing on the spot as I turned to face him.Rowland wore a blank expression, sipping from his glass of water as his brows deepened like he was in deep thoughts."Wait a minute, don't tell me, you... Of fuck me." I burst into laughter moving into the kitchen while shaking my head.I threw the plates into the sink, washed my hands and then dragged the top i was wea
Rosette POV I walked, my feet carrying me forward on autopilot, the rain poured down around me and yet I couldn't feel it. I was numb, lost in a sea of my thoughts trying to comprehend what just happened.I never imagined Damon would do what he just did, one minute he was accepting me and the next, he was pushing me away, Forever.He doesn't want me.Not today or even tomorrow. He didn't bother to stop me, he watched me walk away without a single care of the world.Just like earlier.Today I could see the line clearly and I regretted crossing it over and over again..And now we are all broken.Damon.My mum and I. Yet the responsibility to fix this somewhat broken relationship rested on my shoulders.But what do I do?How can I fix it?Damon was adamant, angry and buttered about everything and my mom? She was sad, shattered and I don't even know.Tears pricked at the corner of my eyes and I let them fall. I mean what was the point of holding it back? No one could see meI was alone
Rosette's POV "No, you don't get to say that to me, you don't get to ask me to leave because I only came here for you and no one else" I fired back at him.."No, you didn't come here for me, you came to fulfill your duties as Susan's daughter and no one else, why can no one see what she has done to me?" Damon countered, banging his fist on the wall.A small lump grew in my throat as I swallowed hard, I closed my eyes, hiding the tears that threatened to fall and then I took a small step forward.Without knowing what to expect, was he going to push me away or accept me? I couldn't tell.I couldn't read his eyes today, unlike every other day, just by looking at his eyes, I could tell his emotions, I could see whatever he wanted to say but today, Damon put up a wall between us. In his eyes and his heart."Whatever my mom did was wrong, so wrong and I don't support her one bit okay? I..she is broken Damon, and I cannot see her this way, it hurts me seeing you both like this and I'm torn,
Rosette's POV A gasp escaped my lips as I closed the drawer immediately."Oh no, not that one, I'm sorry about that" Mom apologized, rubbing her forehead."I..""Check the second one, it should be there" "Okay"I opened the second drawer and luckily this time around, it wasn't a drawer filled with sex toys.I grabbed the laptop and the headphones before walking back to the bed."What do you want to watch?""A Turkish series" She answered, adjusting the comforter as she handed a pillow to me."Let me guess, Sen Cal Kapimi?" I asked again."Yes" she added, a smile working its way to her face."Alright then"I logged into our netflix account and with the minutes the show was up, we both sat on the bed, our backs resting against the headboard as we watched the series."Do you want some snacks? Can I grab us ice cream or something?" I asked again, thirty minutes into the first episode."No please, don't go anywhere I don't need anything, just stay right here" she replied, wrapping her ha
Rosette POV "What did you just say?" My hands dropped from her shoulders."I was pregnant Rose and I aborted the baby because I didn't want it and last night, Damon found out, he saw the reports and he got angry, he didn't give me a chance to explain and he left the house...I don't know where he's right now and I have been sending him messages, all I want is for him to talk to me...""You did what mom?" The words slipped out my mouth in shock.I just couldn't believe what I was hearing, I mean I refused to."Do you realize how absurd you are sounding right now mom? How could you do that?" I shouted at her, rising from the couch."Do you think it's easy to raise a child, Rose? I'm getting everything I want right now and the baby would...""Hinder you from your progress? And you didn't think it was necessary to talk to him about it?" I shot at her."I don't need a goddamn lecture from you Rose! Okay, I already got enough and I know what I did was wrong, I know that, but it's done, not
Rosette POV Just before I could reply, Rowland intervened, he told Caleb how not good an idea that was considering the fact that Damon was sick, my mom won't be comfortable at the dinner and all that.Caleb apologized for how insensitive he was about the issue and I just waved it off.I was so glad that he was present at this moment, because if it was just Caleb and I, I doubt I would have had a way out.I thanked Rowland a million times in my head and my heart that I almost blurted it out but I just held it in. I made a mental note to thank him afterwards.After we were done with our snacks, it was already late and so we went our separate ways, Caleb in his car, Rowland booked a ride and I drove home.*****Immediately I pushed the main door open, I was greeted with total darkness, both from the kitchen and the living room and so I concluded that my mom was also out.I hung my coat by the door side and then placed my key on the tray while turning on the light.Immediately I heard he
Rosette's POV Instead of going back home, I decided to head to the ice cream parlor. A few minutes ago, I got a message from Caleb. They were still at the ice cream parlour if I would be able to meet up.In this state, it was the best thing for me rather than facing my mom. I knew something was off in the morning before I left for school, I just wished I paid more attention and not ignored it like I did.In less than twenty minutes, I arrived at the parlour, and through the glass walls, I could see Caleb and Rowland, on a table, scanning the menu as they said something to each other.I took a deep breath in, while trying to fix my expression. I needed to come up with something because they will definitely ask questions and I had to give them no reason to suspect.I ran my hand through my hair, while reapplying my lipgloss. Just as I took the next step, I winced in pain.I had completely forgotten how sore I was considering how rough Damon took me, and that was going to disorganize my
Damon’s POV“What the fuck is wrong with you Damon?” Nathan yelled over the phone. Twenty minutes after Rose left, I got a call from Nathan man, was pissed and angry. He must have called Rose and she must have told him about everything.Everything but not how i fucked her and asked her to leave the next second.And I regret it, I deeply do, but I had no idea how to fix it, I couldn't even gather the courage to go after her and stop her. “Say something man, at least, you got me to call her and i did and then you threw her out?” He added again.“Is that what she told you?” I threw back at him.“What she told me doesn’t matter, what you did matters! I know what Susan did to you was horrible, terrible and all that…but that doesn’t mean you get to do that to her, I’m sure she dropped everything for you” “Did you tell her the truth?” “I told her it wasn’t in my position to do so, Susan might tell her once she gets home and now you are deviating from the topic, why did you do that?” “It
