Christian

We were almost in the downtown area, we could already see the streets for the festival celebrating the city's anniversary, and I decided to find a quiet place to park and walk on foot. I stopped the bike and Rose and I disembarked, getting rid of the helmet afterwards.

" I have to admit, your Harley is beautiful," she complimented, combing her hair with her fingers after getting rid of the helmet. “What are the chances of you letting me ride your motorcycle?”

" Have you ever ridden a motorcycle before? " I crossed my arms, watching as she used the rearview mirror to fix her hair.

" Never, but I'm sure I could if I tried," she admitted, taking off her jacket before handing it back to me.

" You won't try it with my Harley," I smile, putting it on and walking through the town streets.

" You're a real spoilsport, Davis. After your little exhibition I'll probably get my old high school nickname back, so at the very least you should thank me and teach me how to ride," she insiste

    ChristianMy gaze returned to Sky, who was now playing with a ring on her finger, avoiding raising her face to face either of them." My friends and I are alone today, what do you say we get the groups together? " she suggested, pointing to the same girls as before who were waiting nearby. Alicia was watching us expectantly, and from the look on Rose's face she was about to make up some excuse and leave, and I decided to help her with that." Actually, I have to introduce someone to Skyller, so we were just leaving, right, Baker? " I slung my arm around her shoulder, drawing her attention." Let's stop wasting time then, Christian promised to teach me how to ride his Harley later," Rose stood beside me, wrapping her arm around me to pull us away from the group.Liam looked about to protest, but before he could say anything, Theo joined us." I'll come along to supervise everything, see you later," he nodded to both of them.We walked together for a few meters in a heavy atmosphere un

    RoseI concentrated on controlling the little dolls on the foosball table, moving them at an intense pace in an attempt not to let the ball pass, but that didn't do much good, since in a few seconds the sound of the ball entering our goal rang out, making me groan." Another goal," Theo celebrated, giving Sky, his playing partner, a high five." Come on, Davis. You missed another one," I complained." I'm not the only one losing, Rose. You're not helping either," Christian retorted.We had taken over one of the game rooms in the residence hall and were stuck in the game for the last few minutes. " Sky I want to switch with you, let me be on Theo's team," I asked." Rose, you can't switch teams just because you're losing," Liam warned, lying down on a couch next to the table." Who said no? " I turned to Liam." The sporting spirit," Christian warned me. " Yeah, I don't have it. I like to win," I murmured, turning back to the small players at the table.I managed to defend my side of

    Rose" Rose, this car is amazing," Sky commented as she led us to the party venue." I know, my dad is crazy about her.”" And why did he give her to you then?”Skyller gave me a quick sideways glance and then turned her attention back to the road. For a second I caught myself admiring my friend's beauty; her short blond hair framed a face of symmetrical and delicate features, but the highlight was undoubtedly her eyes.Liam's intense emerald eyes were beautiful, Christian's ice-color eyes were breathtaking. But who naturally gets an almost golden tone like hers?" Family tradition. His father gave him the car, he wanted to do the same with me," I shrugged, observing the neighborhood of large houses we were in.The party would take place at the house of one of the guys who still lived in town with his parents. It was not the kind of party we were used to go, but as we parked in front of the place that was packed with guests we smiled in anticipation." Are you ready for your first par

    Rose" Rose, this way " Theo guided me into one of the living rooms.Liam was sitting on a sofa, with a girl sitting on either side of him, talking to some people, that image reminded me of a mobster in the VIP area of a nightclub." Why is she laughing? " Liam frowned as we approached." You don't want to know," Sky murmured.He looked at me for a few seconds before he spoke again. " Rose, this is Nina and Charlie Sinclair, my friends," he introduced the girls standing next to him.They were both very pretty, especially Charlie, with his Native American features. I cocked my head to the side, imagining how she would look dressed in some of her native clothing. It was an interesting sight. " Rose, tell me something, what do you say we both go somewhere quieter so that we can enjoy the evening in a more comfortable way? " Liam proposed, receiving a surprised look from our friends.But the loud music was beginning to bother me a little, and I might as well lie down, or at least sit d

    RoseTheo stopped the car in the driveway, turning around for the first time since we left the party." Take her to her room and try to put her to bed, I'll go find Sky and Liam," he instructed Christian.But before they could act, I opened the door, stepped out of the car, struggling to stand on my heels, staggering into the hall, drawing the attention of a few people in the common area." Rose, come back here! " Christian ran to catch up with me." Go to hell, Davis! " I shouted, almost knocking over a small table on the way." You're going to get hurt, wait for me! " he yelled at me, clearly annoyed by my attitude. I was aware of the curious looks on our little clash, but I didn't care one bit about the situation." So what? I'm stupid, aren't I? So let me get hurt, it won't make any difference to you!” I finally reached the stairs, leaning on the banister, hoping that I would make it up without falling and breaking my neck. It's okay, Rose, it's only three flights, you can do it

    RoseI jumped to the floor, feeling the world spinning around me, I crawled into bed throwing myself there, giving up even changing clothes. I woke up the next day feeling like the worst person in the universe, my head was pounding, my body refused to respond to my commands properly, and my mind was slow. And unfortunately I remembered all the details of the previous night well, feeling terrible and ashamed of everything.I dragged myself into a quick shower and tried to look presentable for Phillip Black's class when all I wanted to do was lie in my bed and pretend I didn't exist for the rest of the year. This would be my gouache practice class, so I opted for loose jeans overalls that were already stained with paint, a stained t-shirt, and a pair of beat-up sneakers. I tied my hair into a simple ponytail before facing the class.The worst part of what happened yesterday was dealing with the stares that followed me down the hall while I pretended to be invisible among my classmates.

    ChristianI left Rose's room still trying to control my heartbeat. What the fuck just happened? I put my hands in the front pockets of my pants trying to disguise my situation a little, but how could I control myself if I could still taste the sweetened drink in my mouth? If the sensation of her warm skin under my lips was still alive in my mind?" Damn Christian, she's drunk! " I muttered to myself, walking down the hall.I felt terrible for what had happened, all right, I had been taken by surprise by her attitude and I had externalized the desire I felt for her, but I was the sober part of that equation, I shouldn't have reciprocated.I was just reaching the stairs to go to my room when Theo's voice caught my attention." Hey, Davis. Did she sleep? " Theo asked." I left her in her room, I don't know if she slept or not," I blurted, trying not to show what had happened moments ago." Liam and Sky are stuck in an eternal DR, I gave up waiting for the car keys," he explained, climbin

    ChristianA slightly more spontaneous smile appeared on her lips, but despite her acceptance the mood between us was still awkward. I stopped by the cafeteria to buy our lunch and a few minutes later we were sitting under the shade of a tree near one of the many wooden mills that were scattered around Grayfox Mills. That property was just outside the campus and was always empty and quiet, having become one of my favorite places when I wanted some peace." Wow, this place is really quiet," Rose commented, looking around." Yes, I like it here." A secluded and somewhat shady place. Why am I not surprised? " she teased, making me feel a little more at ease." You just said it was a quiet place," I commented, opening my backpack and taking out the paper bag with our lunch." But yeah, I bet the only ones who come here are you and the spirits that live in that abandoned windmill," she quipped.I just laughed at that remark, watching her face again, as much as she tried her best to joke, i

    Christian"Did you hear Liam's speech? "Rose asked.I turned my head to the side to watch her, she was sitting on the floor next to the bed, wearing only my boxer shorts while drawing on a pad. No one had come home yet and we were enjoying the silence.I felt exhausted after everything that had happened over the last few days, I couldn't believe that this nightmare had finally come to an end. After getting home and taking a long shower with Rose, the only thing I could do was lie down and stare at the ceiling in my room, imagining how everything would happen from then on."Could you not hear? "I sneered."Do you think he was serious about his vision of the future? "she turned her face to look at me."I don't know, maybe. But...I kept quiet, wondering what exactly I was going to say. Because more and more the whole scenario he described came to life in my mind, and every second I found it more enjoyable."But? "New Orleans is a nice city. We could live near each other and...

    ChristianI sat down, taking the bottle of beer from my sister, taking a sip before she grabbed the bottle from my hand and slapped me upside the head."Your father-in-law has guaranteed that you'll beat Bobby and Otto at pool, they've never lost at the bar "My father pointed to the table where Rose and Jack were getting ready to start the game."My father-in-law is... a bit competitive. Rose got that from him," I commented."A bit? That's a joke, right? Last time the two of them ended up in a snow race just to break a tie in a series of board games "Cam rolled his eyes."Snow race? "My mother raised both eyebrows."While they were taking off their clothes," Theo added."Taking their clothes off? "Amber choked next to me."They had a series of target games in the middle of the course, and every time they missed they had to take off a piece.

    ChristianI stopped the bike in a parking space in front of the bar where Rose met Josh at the beginning of the year. I frowned as everyone got off their bikes there. That place wasn't one of my favorites and Rose must have known that, since we hadn't been back there since everything happened.She got off before me, taking off her helmet, running her fingers through her hair to adjust it and standing next to me when she noticed my hesitation in getting off the bike."Come on, it's about time we gave this place a second chance "she winked at me "let's enjoy it like we should have done that day. That was enough to convince me, so I took off my helmet and got off the bike. From there we could hear a band playing a cover of Aerosmith. Everyone started to enter the venue, not bothering to wait for me. I took a deep breath, slung my arm around Rose's shoulder and started heading towards the entrance. Both Rose and I ended up with the backs of our hands stamped indicating that we were unde

    ChristianI was lying in bed, watching the sunset light coming through the small window in the corridor facing the cell I occupied. My cell was the only one occupied in the police station, and that was no surprise. In a town as quiet as Grayfox Mills, it was difficult to see any movement at the police station during the week, when all the university students were busy with their classes.Everything I wanted. To get on with my classes without having to deal with some asshole who decided to play with my girl! But that asshole made it impossible.I'd been there for over twenty-four hours, and that had been enough time to calm my mind, at least as far as Jax was concerned. But even though I'd taken a few naps during the day, I couldn't stop imagining how Rose was doing, the look on her face as I was handcuffed never left my mind, and I just wanted the chance to talk to my girlfriend and make sure she was okay.My biggest concern with everything that had happened was just her. I didn't reg

    RoseMy gaze wandered around that hellish scene without knowing what to do. Everything unfolded in slow motion in front of me. On one side, Jax was lying, moaning in pain in a pool of his own blood, being supported by a waiter. His friends were on the other side, keeping some distance with an expression that ranged from surprise to fear, keeping as much distance as possible from Christian, who was standing next to me with both hands raised in a sign of surrender after handing Theo the keys to the bike. The sidewalk outside was starting to fill up as well, several people crowded near the glass window watching what was happening, some taking pictures or filming with their cell phones as the police approached us." Dad, do something " I begged for a magic solution, one that would stop my boyfriend from being taken by those men. "Chris..." I tried to put one of his hands down to pull him to me, but he stood his ground, looking the other way while someone talked to one of the policemen,

    Christian" Chris, you heard the dean, he'll probably be expelled... CHRIS! " Rose raised her voice as I stood up, heading for the exit." What's his problem?”" Damn it, Christian, get back here! " I heard Rose call before I got into the elevator that was standing on the floor, not waiting for her to arrive to press the button to close the doors.I checked the time on my watch, great, it's right on lunch break time, I'll find this bastard and finish him off wherever he is. Deciding not to waste any time, I got on the bike, driving inside the campus, heading towards the main cafeteria. I stopped the Harley anyway at the entrance to the cafeteria, ignoring the stares I was attracting, I opened the door without a care, looking around for my target. But to my dismay, the son of a bitch was nowhere to be found." Chris, what are you doing here? " I heard Sky's voice approaching.I turned towards her voice, finding her standing next to Theo with a frown as she watched me." 'O'Donnel, hav

    ChristianSavannah and her friends stood up, looking satisfied with the outcome of that little meeting. All they wanted was to make sure that they would not be involved in that situation and they succeeded. " So? You can start " Rose took a deep breath with her arms crossed. " 'We're going to talk in a meeting with the dean,” Savannah said." 'That wasn't agreed,” Addison pointed out." We haven't agreed on anything yet, Mrs. Miller, and we're just making sure we don't get involved in any of this,” she returned.It was at that moment that Jack decided to get involved, seeming not to agree with the proposal." 'We're not going to guarantee any of this without knowing what you have to say.”" We can guarantee that Alicia and Audrey are responsible for everything, we will give the names of all those involved and we will tell you in detail everything we have discovered.

    ChristianI hurried down the stairs and into the kitchen, finding Jack and Addison in an uncomfortable silence. Their gazes fell on me as soon as I walked through the door, causing me to stall in my seat." What?”" Were you arguing? " Addison asked." Ohhh no... Rose is just frustrated with the situation, I suggested she paint a little to distract herself " I explained " I was supposed to bring her breakfast at the studio.”" I'll do it," Addison volunteered, getting up.I didn't argue with the woman, sitting down in the same place as before, accepting the muffin Jack handed me. We sat there, eating in silence for a few minutes, until the sound of the doorbell interrupted us. Jack signaled for me to remain in my seat, getting up to go answer the door.Frowning, I remained silent, trying to hear something to find out who was at the door, but they were either talking very quietly, or not at all. I stood up, deciding to satisfy my curiosity at once, that's when Addison's voice reached m

    ChristianI turned over in my bed, watching the face of Rose, who slept next to me curled up in a fetal position. My room was small and we didn't usually sleep there, but Rose couldn't bear the thought of sleeping in her room that night and I couldn't blame her. My girlfriend that day did not show all the usual tranquility when sleeping, which sometimes left me in doubt whether or not she had suddenly died in her sleep. On the contrary, she spent the whole night restless, and was not even sleeping on her stomach as usual.The silence outside the room showed that our classmates had probably already gone to class, only the two of us were left behind, trapped in our private hell. Deciding to let her rest a little longer, I got up, going to get dressed and brush my teeth before heading downstairs.The house itself seemed deserted, silence dominated the upper floor. I looked at the open door of Theo's room, where Jack ended up sharing the bed with Addison that night, finding the place empt
