The chemistry of all colors 96 - The chapter with Addison's disappointment
Rose" Rose, seriously, you're scaring me," Christian's voice sounded on the other end of my cell phone as another sob escaped my lips.Ever since that damn phone call two days ago, I had been more and more susceptible to bouts of crying. But this time, instead of my tears being motivated by all the fear and uncertainty that had surrounded me for the past few days, they were finally filled with relief at seeing the single stripe printed on the pregnancy test I finally got some privacy to take. And the mild cramping I'd been feeling since morning added to my relief." Seriously, you need to tell me the result, it's been five minutes, why are you crying? " Christian's voice became more and more concerned, making me smile as I remembered all the care he was taking with me in the last two days. Since we left on vacation, we always talked by text, and sometimes by phone. But ever since I told him about my suspicion, Christian had been calling me at least three times a day to see how I was

RoseWe walked together to a Pizzeria in downtown Rochester, and soon we were sharing a generous pepperoni pizza at a table in one corner of the restaurant." I hope you're eating better in college and not just surviving on pizza," my mom warned as she helped herself to a piece, "your credit card is maxed out enough that you're eating a lot better than you are at home, where your dad and I are too lazy to cook.”" You know, if I was really pregnant, at least my son would have a father who loves to cook and does it very well " I commented nonchalantly before biting into a slice of pizza " I love this place, they make the best pizza in town!”" He cooks? Wow, we should invite him to cook dinner " my mom commented making me laugh " What's so funny? I'm serious, now that he's going to be your boyfriend we should get closer. Inviting his sister for dinner would be a great idea.”" Oh my God, mom! Haven't you forgotten that yet? " I laughed at that comment." How can I forget those blue eye

Rose" I'm in the arrivals area, where have you been? " Christian complained as I hurried through the crowded airport on the third day of January." I took my time to find a spot, so stop being a pain in the ass to the people who did you the favor of picking you up at the airport instead of letting you manage on your own," I said back, panting, dodging people as I spoke. A smile appeared on my face as I caught a glimpse of the boy with his back to me, talking on his cell phone. It felt like the two of us hadn't seen each other in months, not just two weeks.I am so screwed!" I just don't understand how hard it is for you to leave on time, you're already forty minutes late, we should be on campus by now…”I didn't wait for him to finish his sentence, ending the call without any ceremony, holding back my laughter as I noticed the incredulous expression on his profile when he noticed what I had done, not realizing my presence, almost behind him." She hung up on me? I'm going to kill t

Rose" And I know how ridiculous it is that I told you, and I tried to change the way I feel, but in the last few days, especially, I realized that I can't. So following Beebee's advice, I decided to face it for good. So following Beebee's advice, I decided to face it for good and expose to you what's going on " he continued talking, looking away, looking embarrassed by the whole situation.Without wasting time I took my hands to the back of his head, pushing him against the car, joining our lips in a kiss full of desire that Christian did not hesitate to match, taking his hands to my ass, sticking our bodies together.His hands ran up my back, while his tongue danced along mine in a slow rhythm making me forget the icy wind that constantly hit us." I was talking " Christian gave a half-smile with his eyes still closed and his forehead pressed against mine." Sorry, you can finish now " I nibbled his chin, feeling his body reacting to all that stimulation." I just wanted to say that
The chemistry of all colors 100 - The chapter where they are tacky together
ChristianI held my girlfriend's delicate hand, observing her nails, which were already of a considerable size, painted light pink with small golden flowers drawn on them. I was sitting on the bed, with my back against the wall and Rose was lying on my lap wearing only an old t-shirt she had taken from my suitcase that was still in her room, since I had gone straight there, and lace panties while reading a summary on her cell phone for a modern art history exam.I loved every detail of those nails, even if my back, arms and nape had already been punished last night while we enjoyed the desert lookout inside the Brigitte." Did you like it? " Rose caught my eye, making me realize that she had put her phone aside, focusing on my face with an amused expression." As always, they look very nice. They've grown faster than I thought " I commented nonchalantly, noticing the shine of the golden enamel on the flowers " You should paint them all gold next time.”" I can do that," she winked, be
The chemistry of all colors 101 - The chapter with the big news
ChristianWe left the room together, heading towards the common area where we always met our friends. Skyller was sitting in the armchair, while Theodore remained hand in hand with Camille, who seemed delighted by the attention, on the other sofa." Where is Van Derr Waal? " I asked, taking a seat on the vacant space on the sofa.Rose did not hesitate to settle on one of my legs, I wrapped my arm around her waist, smoothing her thigh over the denim fabric of her pants. That little exchange of caresses was not unheard of for our friends, but the fact that we did it in public attracted some attention, although no one commented on it." He was waiting for you to arrive so he could make a triumphant entrance, after all, he has big news " Skyller rolled her eyes, seeming to consider it a big nonsense " I'll send a message letting you know that you've arrived.” " Does anyone know what's going on? " Rose asked, bringing her hand to mine and playing with my fingers." No, he's making a big m
The chemistry of all colors 102 - The chapter where Rose tells everything
Rose" Rose, can you just stop underestimating our intelligence? " Sky complained as we walked together with Theo towards the cafeteria at lunchtime on Monday.We were still discussing the details of all the changes that would happen in our lives, and for me, moving in with my friends was just one of them." Underestimating? When had I ever done that? " I frowned." You and Davis are different, Rose. Everyone noticed that," Theo pointed out.Yes, I knew everyone had noticed, maybe our resolution to keep things low-key wasn't going to work out so well in the end, but I felt too happy to hide it. More than happy, I felt exhilarated. And most of that feeling was because I had finally overcome all that insecurity and irrational fear that had gripped me before." I don't know, maybe we missed each other and we're enjoying it now." I tried to say, "Sky and Liam can't get away from each other either. Neither can you and Cam.”" And we're publicly dating now," Sky pointed out, "and Theo's mov
The chemistry of all colors 103 - The chapter with the catch
RoseBack at college, I attended one more contemporary art history class before finally freeing myself to enjoy some time with Christian, who was saying goodbye to Harry and taking his clothes to my room. Cam was loving to pick on us, saying that Sky and I would practically be living together with the boys, but that was far from the truth. I had already made it clear that when we moved in, we would each have our own room and space. This was just a temporary measure.I took a shower and returned to my room, putting on the Foo Fighters t-shirt that Christian loved and I had taken from his bag, a pair of short jeans and a pair of black knitted socks that went down to my knees, throwing myself on the beds that we had put together to improvise a double bed, starting to play some game on my cell phone while I waited. Time passed and Christian was taking longer than I expected. As it got closer to dinner time, I got a text from Liam, letting me know that they had bought Thai food and were w

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...

The chemistry of all colors 158 - The chapter with the drunken marriage proposal
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. At the end of the race, he was only wearing shorts and boots and she was wearing a gym top, shorts and boots "I explained, taking the bottle of be
The chemistry of all colors 157 - The chapter with the celebration
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
The chemistry of all colors 156 - The chapter in which Christian gets out of jail
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
The chemistry of all colors 155 - The chapter where Rose decides what to do
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
The chemistry of all colors 153 - The chapter where Christian finds out
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. " Savannah said " we even have message exchanges to prove it.”Everyone considered that information for a second befor

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
The chemistry of all colors 151 - The chapter with breakfast with the in-laws
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
