But let’s just label it that.My name is Rose.I live New York with my mother. My dad died when I was 13 and yeah, that sucks.

Chapter 2 Elevator rides. They can be unpredictable, but most of the time; boring. It takes about two minutes for me to reach down.With the right person, those two minutes can be normal. But with the wrong person, it can be torture.Like today, it’s the wrong person. It’s freaking Sam! The guy that lives two floors down from me. He is...an angel! I can’t find the right word to describe him. He’s just simply heavenly. Heavenlike features and using the word perfect feels insufficient. Okay, okay. You may think I’m overacting and maybe I am. But this guy is incredibly attractive. One of my two million crushes to be honest. I crush on almost everybody! Even girls! It’s just a habit. My life is very routine

I’m twenty minutes late for the darn thing! Shoot!I start jogging towards the class’ direction. My legs ache a-bit. I did a lot of squats yesterday. I am very motivated to have a decent behind size.When I reach the door, I hear Ms. Flowers’ voice. I open the red door slowly, hoping to just creep in with no one noticing me.

My full name is Rose Melody Jacobs. I am a Love fanatic. I was named “Rose” because my parents were Love fanatics too. When it comes to dating, I have had my share of heartbreaks. Three heartbreaks. I broke up with them all. I have not been dumped in my life. I have a problem and I may need to seek professional help from a shrink or something because I am seeking for something that don’t exist. A perfect Love. Love that is void of mistakes and imperfections.Well, I know it don’t exist but I subconsciously seek it in all my relationships. So I end up leaving the relationship.I think it stems from the fact that I saw my parents’ Love as perfect and without blemish. It was not, but that was how and still how I see it.

Chapter 5
“Are you not coming in?” He says smiling. His eyes holds amusement. He looks so casual. He’s wearing baggy shorts and is shirtless. What in the world is going on? His jet black hair looks ruffled. I see a tattoo on his left shoulder. A beautiful black butterfly. It must be professionally done, because wow. It looks like Art. “Rosie, will you not come in?” He opens the door further and I can hear people talking and laughing inside. Did he just gave me a nickname? He did! No one has ever given me a nickname. Everyone just calls me Rose and I rather like it that way, honestly. Rosie sounds childish. Cute but childish. Eh, I don’t like it. “Don’t call me that.” I push pass him and enter the house
