Was that even right?

I wanted Damon to stay away from me but the fact that he couldn't keep his eyes away from me, turned me on.

Damon asked breaking the silence.Huge question.Because I wanted everything, Body and Soul.I didn't reply instead I continued wiping the tears that rolled down my eyes when a black kerchief appeared in my vision, and then I turned to look at Damon."You look like a mess" he pointed out and I wanted the car to open up and probably swallow me."You.

You are exaggerating the whole issue," I retorted, " I was starting to get angry now.She wasn't even giving Diego nor I a chance to speak or at least explain."Exaggeration? What do you know Rose?

After I left my mom in Damon's hands, I went back to my room to get over the whole situation, but all I did was cry. The only thing that occupied my mind was the way Damon looked at me, the first time my mother dropped the news on him. He stared at me, with disappointment, in his eyes and it broke my heart.

In more ways than one."Have you done something like this before?" Damon asked, tracing my lower lip with his thumb.Cold.I knew what Damon was asking, and so I gave my response."Yes," I muttered."When?" Damon answered as a frown crept its way to his face."Back in school, Kara made me do it" I answered as my lips curled into a small smile.I remember giving two guys blowjobs for one whole week straight just so that we could get into the basketball cheerleading team.It was the only term they proposed and we accepted it.Suddenly Damon yanked my hair w

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

"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

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

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?
