I put a hand in the pocket of my lab coat, as I checked my lab notebook for calculations on the experiment we were going to perform. I looked around, spotting Camille standing alone at a bench in the far corner of the lab, making me want to join her. Not that I was attracted to her in any way, but it bothered me to see how she was always alone and always seemed to become the butt of other girls' jokes.

" Are you excited for the holiday? " Harry's voice snapped me out of my contemplation, grabbing my notebook to check that his own calculations were correct.

It was already Tuesday of Thanksgiving week, and Rose and I would be traveling before nightfall, so I couldn't deny that I was excited for it.

" I am, I can't wait to get back to Florida, I got a flight for tomorrow," Taylor commented, making me snort internally.

" I'm taking a bus to Pittsburgh in the morning," Harry added.

" I have a long drive to Missoula, let's leave later today.” I shrugged, separating the material

    ChristianIt took a few minutes before I was free of all the lab chores, removing my goggles and lab coat before walking over to her, feeling my mood improve considerably as I admired her even more closely." Wow, I've never seen you in action before, Mr. Mad Scientist," Rose scoffed as I approached." I prefer to be called an evil genius," I returned with a small smile, putting one arm around her shoulder, while holding my lab coat and notebook with the other. “Are you already ready?”Despite the low temperature I didn't like to walk around with my lab coat outside the lab, so I would have to wait until I got to my locker to get my jacket." I talked to Ms. Clarke, explained that I had a long way to go, and like Miss Morgenstern, she released me from the class, but I have to hand in some work next week to make up for it, so you'll have to find a place in your bag for my material.”That explanation caused me to glare at her. This was typical, why did I have to make room for her things

    ChristianWe waited a few seconds, until Rose put on her gloves, grabbed one of the saddlebags to help me, and then we headed to the parking lot. " You don't wear this jacket often," Rose commented standing beside me as I was lowered onto the side of the Harley, attaching the side saddlebags after securing the larger one to the support behind the backrest.I was wearing the Wandering Falcons jacket, the same one I had worn on Halloween, it had the biker club symbol on the back and front, on the left side was embroidered C. Davis.Rose was right, I had several jackets, but that particular one was difficult for me to wear away from the Biker club." I'm not yet an official member of the Wandering Falcons, so I'd rather wait until it's for real," I explained, getting up, "Now, I have something for you.” " Something for me? " She raised both eyebrows.I took the women's helmet with some red flowers drawn on it that I had bought for her the day before and put it on her head, smiling to s

    ChristianShe was leaning against the doorframe, her loose hair framing her face, where a cocky smile danced on her lips." Sorry honey, I didn't hear you. What did you say? " my mother reminded me of her presence.Rose leaned away from the doorframe, approaching with slow steps while I did not look away from her." I just said goodbye, Mom, I'll call you tomorrow," I lied, closing my eyes in an attempt to stay focused as Rose finally caught up with me.A shiver ran through my body as I felt the touch of her hand on my abdomen, beginning to pull up the fabric of the t-shirt I was wearing, causing my breathing to quicken.Damn it, Rose, I'm talking to my mother!" Sure, let us know before you leave," my mother ordered.I didn't wait a second to end the call and put the cell phone in my pants pocket, bringing my hand to the back of her neck, tangling my fingers in her hair, and tilting her head back before bringing my lips to hers.Her nails ran smoothly down my chest as Rose kissed bac

    Christian It was after six o'clock when we crossed the border between South Dakota and Montana, and almost four hours later, we arrived at the ranch that the motorcycle club had rented for Thanksgiving.The ranch was in the middle of a valley cut by a river between two mountains in one of Montana's many forests, and although it was dark when we arrived, the entire area of the cabins and the main house was well lit and you could get a good sense of the beauty of the place.The silence was interrupted by the sound of the Harley's engine as we approached the main house, the absence of other motorcycles showed me that probably no one had arrived yet. But when I finally stopped the motorcycle in front of the house, the door opened and a figure with long black hair and eyes as blue as mine stepped out." Finally we're here, I'm dead. Look Davis, I'm really tempted to get a plane ticket for Saturday night, and... Wow, who is she? " Rose interrupted her complaints as she became aware of my s

    ChristianI woke up the next day turned onto my side, with one arm around Rose, who was still in the same position, making me sigh as I watched her face closely. If it were not for her heavy breathing, I would swear that she had died of a sudden illness in her sleep. The commotion had already taken over outside the room, showing that probably everyone had already arrived and was ready for breakfast. We would have a lot to face that day." Chris..." Rose's sleepy voice caught my attention. She still had her eyes closed, in the same position." Yes?”" Can you take your hand off my ass? " she murmured before opening her eyes to stare at me, making me laugh." Sorry. " I brought my hand up to her face, brushing a few strands of hair out of the way to get a better look at her." Good morning," she smiled." Good morning," I returned.Rose turned to face me, looking in a much better mood than she had yesterday." It looks like there are quite a few people out there.”" If the whole motorc

    RoseI put a few slices of bacon on my plate and took some toast with jam and a bottle of juice, putting them on my tray under the watchful eye of Christian who was serving himself next to me. " Are you going to have bacon with toast and jam? " he asked." What's the problem? It's not like I put jelly on the bacon," I shrugged, picking up some kind of sizable loaf of bread. “What is it?”" Blueberry bear paw," he explained, taking one for himself as well, "it's a sweet bread stuffed with... blueberries.”" It looks promising. Here's enough food for a battalion," I joked, starting to walk away. Christian took a small bottle of green tea before following me to where his parents had reserved a place for both of us.He put a tray on the table, sitting down in front of his father, while I sat down in front of his mother, next to his sister." Mom, Dad. It's good to see you again," Christian commented before starting to eat.I can't say that I didn't find this interaction strange. The rel

    RoseMy thoughts were interrupted when I felt Christian's hand on the back of my neck, burrowing into my hair before pulling me into a kiss. I didn't think twice before responding, even though I was taken by surprise by this attitude.I had never kissed him in front of people I knew before, and I must say it was a different feeling. Christian pulled away with an amused expression, winking at me as his hand stroked my scalp." It's okay, I understand what you told me yesterday, Chris," Amber hummed beside me.That phrase caught my attention, causing me to turn to the woman next to me." What did he tell you?”" Nothing you need to know," he returned in a warning tone to his sister." Will you tell me when he's gone? " I whispered to her, receiving a complicit smile in return before the woman winked at me.I felt surprised at how beautiful this woman was, and how much Christian looked like her. " You're not going to talk to anyone," Christian whispered in my ear. We spent the rest of

    Rose Our conversation was interrupted when Christian himself opened the door, looking relieved to see me there." There you are, I thought you had run away " He approached me " Is everything ok?”" Yes, you did me the favor of leaving me alone, I thought I'd take your Harley and go for a ride," I mocked." Good thing I always keep the key with me then," he returned with a small smile. " Chris, the ingredients for the green bean casserole are on the counter, can you make it? You know everyone loves it when you cook," Amber smiled.That information surprised me, I never would have imagined Christian cooking anything, well maybe instant noodles, but this, even I can do!" I didn't know you cooked," I commented, taking advantage of his closeness to hug him, resting one hand on his lower back while the other went up to his chest, tilting my head back a little to look into his eyes.I couldn't deny that I was loving being able to touch him all the time here, unlike when we are in college

    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...

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?

    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?

    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
