Damon's POV "Mom?" Rose gasped as I turned to see Susan, walking down the stairs.She had a frown on her face as she approached us, "Damon you..Rose why are you here?" Susan asked again.Rose threw a look at me, almost like she was scared, especially with the way Susan was looking at us.How do we explain this situation, it was past midnight, and we were both drenched."Say something, would you?" Susan added again, standing in front of Rose."Mom...I.. Damon" Rose stammered, fixing her eyes on the floor."Rose caught a cold as soon as it started raining and so she called me to come pick her up" I blurted out, the first thing that came to my head."Cold?""Yes, I think it was quite serious, and so she called me to inform me" I added while locking the door as I placed the keys on the table.I was doing everything just to act normal while in a real sense, my heart was literally pounding.I cannot have Susan suspect Rose and I. Not now."Yes mom" Rose added backing up my statement, I was
Rosette's POV.The next day, I came downstairs to meet Damon setting the table, he was making breakfast and so I offered to help.There was no sign of my mother around so I figured she already left for work.Last night, I felt bad for what happened, especially with the way I ran upstairs leaving her and Damon. I'm sure she had questions and Damon had to face it alone.I was responsible for all this, I kept putting Damon in the most awkward situations and still expected him not to react.I don't know how long I have been standing at the foot of the stairs until Damon called my attention."Rose, why are you standing there?" He asked, pulling me out of my thoughts as my eyes locked with his.He looked calm this morning, as small bangs of his hair fell to the sides of his face as his lips curled into a smile."Good morning Damon," I greeted walking towards the table, the aroma of freshly baked banana bread hit my nostrils and my stomach grumbled in response."Hungry?" Damon asked ushering
Rosette POVSelf awareness is a thing.Yes it is.Because my entire body was reacting to way Damon was staring at me, I did not even have to look at him, to confirm that, his eyes followed my every movement and it made me proud in a way?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.I needed some brushes, paints and sheets for my course, I also wanted to start practicing my art once again, after my visit to the Gallery, I got the inspiration that I lost long time ago.I was torn between two paint brushes, and I couldn't even ask Damon for his suggestion, it was obvious that he wasn't the arts kind of person.I have never perceived Damon as a sentimental person, not until his voice broke my trail of thoughts."Size six will be perfect if you want to get the thin lines" Shock.My eyes widened instantly as I turned to face him, "What did you say?""I can see that you are deliberating on this two brushes r
Rosette's POVIn less than five minutes, Damon got out of the shop, holding the bags of everything I picked as he marched towards the car.How I managed to get into the car was still unknown to me, but for a minute, I was able to put myself in check. Or not.I bursted into tears as soon as I got into the car and now that the cries were over, I was sure I looked like a mess.Damon placed everything at the trunk before he opened the driver side and immediately I looked away.Two minutes past and there was complete silence in the car.The tension so thick that even a knife wouldn't be able to cut through.Yes."What do you want from me Rose?" 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.
Damon's POVI don't know if I have done the right thing or not, but this was what I wanted and I just had to give into it.When Rose confessed her feelings for me, in the name of LOVE, I just knew I had to do something, something to fix it.It was a fact that we were both undeniably attracted to each other, I mean I couldn't think straight whenever Rose was present around me.She affected me that much. But I wasn't in love with her. I loved her mother Susan. Susan is the love of my life and I intend to keep it that way forever, but I couldn't push Rose aside. She seems to have her life and heart hooked on me and that was the reason wasn't going to accept Caleb's offer, or possibly any other offer she will get in the nearest future, which was so wrong.The one hundred day offer was to prove to her that whatever she thinks it's love between us, wasn't. It was Lust. And it's a temporary feeling.One that will definitely go away before the end of our Hundred days pact.All through the dr
Rosette POV."Roseeeeeee!" I flew out of my bed on hearing my Mother's scream.It's been four hours since I returned from the supermarket with Damon and since then I have been floating on clouds not until mother's scream broke my reverie.Fortunately, I was able to cover up for Damon, and he said was right, My Mom didn't suspect a thing."Come down darling, we have a visitor" My mom added again and I quickly threw on a dress while packing my hair up in a ponytail and I was out of the room.There was no way I would be leaving my room in a bad shape, not after everything that has happened.On getting downstairs, My Mom and Damon stood by the door with another strange man."Mom?" "Yes baby, come here, meet Damon's friend, he just arrived" My mother announced as she moved aside, revealing a tall lanky man."Hi, you must be Rose," the man said walking towards me with a bright smile on his face.He was tall, not as tall as Damon...wait why am I comparing every jack to Damon?"My name is Di
Rosette's POV"So now that I'm done complimenting your mother on how amazing she cooks, can I just say how gorgeous you look? , I'm mesmerized by your beauty, I mean, I never knew Damon was hoarding you in this city " Diego started taking my hands into his."Oh please.." I tried to say but then Diego cut me short again."Tell me Rose, wait, I can call you Rose right?" "Yeah..""So tell me, what do you think of this city? Do you know I was totally against it when Damon said y'all are moving to Los Angeles of all places?" Diego added."Oh wow," the words slipped out of my mouth as I threw a look at Damon."But Damon here was quite persistent, he was on and on about how he wanted things to be easier for Susan, a great start and all, so do you like it?" Diego continued drawing my attention back to him."Em...it's a nice city I guess" I managed to say while dragging my eyes away from Damon.Why was he angry now? Even if anyone else couldn't notice it, I did.His mood took a different turn
Rosette's POV"I don't know, Mom is...""You don't know? If I hadn't come here, do you know what would have happened then?" My mother chipped in."Mom, can you just stop? 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? You are just a child, Damon, listen to me, I saw Diego and Rose standing really close to each other and I'm not comfortable with that" My Mother blurted out despite all my protest.I lowered my eyes, fixing my gaze on the floor as I felt Damon's glare on me.Silence."Didn't you hear me Damon? I said...""Susan, it's..." Damon paused as he walked up to my mom, and then he pulled her to the chair."Man, it's seriously nothing of that sort, we both got carried away and.." Diego started again."That's enough Diego please, Susan is... You know what, why don't you leave, I will call you, once I settle everything" Damon said, cu
