Susan's POV

"I didn't have a choice, he reached out to me, begging and I have been putting him off for years and I just believe after staying in jail for so long that there is a possibility that he might have changed, I don't know..."

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..."

So Damon's initial concern was not for Rose, and what her abusive father could do to her, it was for Susan because he thought ronin might want her back. I think it's time Rose leaves both of the jack-asses in her life. Let's see how Damon reacts when there is no Rose around.

    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?

"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

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

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?"

    ROSETTE POV "Are you tensed?" My friend, Kara, asked as she nudged my arm. "You've been so quiet, Sweetie." We were seated next to each other at the back of the cab, on our way to a private club. I turned to smile at her, "Uh? No...no! I'm good." I lied. Yes! I didn't feel good at all about what I planned on doing later this evening, but I was way too far gone to back out now. This evening, I would be taking up a bet made by my friend to sign up as a stripper at a private club, just for one night. I've heard stories of how girls made money from being one time strippers, especially if they were physically attractive, but that wasn't why I agreed to do this. I wasn't even doing it for the money, but for the fun of it; the thrill of dancing half naked in front of strangers that I would never meet again. A part of me wanted this because it would be my last attempt at being a rebel, before relocating to Los Angeles to live with my mother and her new boyfriend. Soon, the
