Rose POV...
I felt a sharp pain as something hard hit the back of my head causing me to groan, roll over and fall off the edge of my bed. "What the hell?" I muttered through a mouthful of carpet, trying to give my arms enough strength to lift my face off of the cold floor at this early in the morning.
"We're gonna be late!" I heard my best friend Lissa exclaim.
Me and Lissa had been friends primary school, we met when we got seated next to eachother in English. We had bonded over our shared hatred of the subject since we had trouble spelling our complicated names when we were little. Anyway, I had tried cheating off of her during a test and had found she had been struggling just as much as me, we have been bestfriends ever since.
"Late to where?" I asked, finally managing to lift myself off of the floor.
"The Karaoke night I told you about last night! It's gonna be great fun."
Crap. I wasn't listening last night and now I've gotten myself into yet another night out which also involves singing, this is going to go great.. You'd think I'd have learned to listen from last time when she had set me up on a blind date with a complete loser, I had somehow managed to mumble a "sure, whatever you think." and therefore she set me up with a guy named Patrick, and god he was ugly and boring! He had greasy, dull blonde hair that fell all over his eyes hiding the lifeless browny green eyes behind it. His nose was crooked, which I'm guessing is from one to many punches in the face, and his mouth was always curved into a horrible sneer. By the end of the date he had tried to put his hand up my skirt. Therefore I had slapped him and stormed off. Let's just say I never saw him again.
"Do we have to?" I whined at her, trying to get her to take sympathy on me and say I didn't have to go.
"Yes." she said her voice clearly stating there was no argueing with her.
"Okay," I said knowing I wouldn't win this fight, once Lissa had made up her mind there was no changing it. "How long do I have to get ready?"
"Erm, twohours..?" she said rolling the two horrible words into one.
"TWO HOURSS?!" I screeched. Panicking I launched myself off the floor in about 0.8 seconds. Well, near enough..
"Yeah, two hours. I'm sorry Rose I would've woke you up earlier but you would've thrown something at me!"
This was true if anyone ever trys to make me wake up I throw the thing nearest to me at them. " Yeah, but you know two hours is not enough time for a girl to get ready and I've got to shower yet!"
I then noticed that she was pretty much ready, the only thing she needed to do was her hair. She looked hot! In a non-lesbian way.. She was wearing a really light pair of acid wash skinny jeans that accentuated her long legs, and a cream see-through collared shirt with a straight red blazer. Her shoes were gorgeous! They were gold sparkly Christian Louboutin heels and I knew I was gonna steal them when I got home haha.
"I know but your only wasting time standing around here talking to me!" she logically stated, looking smug that she had managed to distract me.
"Shit! I gotta go take a quick shower!" I said while dashing for the bathroom. I quickly turned the shower on and shut the door before remembering that I needed a towell. So, once again i made a dash for my room to grab my towell and a change of underwear. I took the quickest shower ever and shaved my legs until they were smooth. I then jumped out of the shower and changed into my underwear,almost tripping when trying to step into them. I then took my time walking down the hall in my underwear not caring if Lissa saw me as she had seen alot more on one of our nights out. I then made it to my room and was trying to think of what to wear when the perfect outfit came to mind. I imagined all of the guys' faces as I walked by. It put a smile on my face.
I got out my outfit and lay it on my bed, standing back to admire my handiwork. In my opinion, I was gonna look like a sex godess! I was gonna wear a tight, leather pencil skirt that fell just above my knees with a silver, sequinned bralet showing a little bit of skin. I paired it with a well fitted, black blazer and my Jeffrey Campbell spiked Litas. Before I put on my outfit I decided to do my hair and makeup. I did my makeup in a smokey eye and deep red lips for a pop of colour. I then blow dried my hair and straitened it and slightly poufed it up to make it look more natural. I then put my outfit on and added some jewellery before slipping my shoes on my feet and expertly strolling down the hall to my bestfriends room. The difference between Lissa and my room was astounding hers was all light pink and pink silk and mine was dark burgandy with all the black trimmings. I wouldnt say I was a goth as I did own some colourful and pink things but I did prefer red to pink and black to white. That didnt make me a goth or else I wouldve dyed my long brown hair black and I would've drowned myseld in white foundation by now, but no I have tanned flawless skin. I strolled over to Lissa and let a playful wolfwhistle come through my mouth and said "Jeez, Lissa you look good. Whats the occasion?" She rolled her eyes at my comment.
"I have a date Rose." she explained.
"WHAT? Why didn't you tell me? I'm hurt." I said hurt lacing my tone as I realised she couldn't trust me enough to tell me about her date until now.
"No Rose, I only met him today at the store. You were asleep. How was I supposed to tell you?" she tried to reason as she explained herself.
"Oh, ok, that's good." I said cheering up, "Whats his name? Is he hot?" I asked, trying to pry more answers from her about this mysterious guy.
"Well, his name is Christian Ozera, and yes, very.." she said a blush spreading across her face as she said the last part.
"Aw, someones got a crush!" I exclaimed, laughing at her expression. She then looked at her watch to check the time.
"Sugar! We're late we have 5 minites to get to the bar!" She said. I laughed at her substitute swear word. She hates swearing and I have only heard her swear once and that was when she broke her leg last summer.
"C'mon then lets get a move on before your date thinks you've stood him up!" I said pushing her out of her room and down the hall. She started moving faster as soon as what I had said sunk in.
"Oh god, you dont think he will do you?" she asked worry clear upon her pale face.
"No, stop worrying! I'll grab my keys!" I said and ran into the living room to grab my keys. I ran back to the front door to see Lissa was already outside standing by my baby. My baby was my car. It was gorgeous! The only good thing about having a rich father who works all the time is the trust fund and the picking of your first car. I, of course, chose a Porsche to be exact a 911 Carrera. It is gorgous and I actually had mine custom made so it was the exact shade of red I wanted and the windows were tinted and so the interior was exactly how I wanted it, black with red seatbelts, It had costed a small fortune, but I was my daddys only little girl so he spoilt me to no end. I walked over to my baby and ran a hand over her hood as i walked to the drivers seat. Once I was seated comfortably I started up my baby loving the soft purr that came from the engine. Lissa then gave me directions to the club where the dreaded karaoke was taking place. When we got there I searched for a space to park my car. When I finally found a space I parked up and got out of my baby , I made sure she was locked and started towards the front of the building where a long line was. I, of course went straight to the bouncer and started flirted with him just so we could get in quicker. It turned out to be someone I knew, his name is Mason Ashford and we were really close friends in high school, we even tried dating in colledge but we decided we were better off as just friends. It was a bit awkward at first but we got the hang of it after a while but then he just dissapeared, he wouldnt return my any of my phone calls and he pretty much just dissapeared off the face of the earth. "Hey, Mase! It's me Rose!"
"Whoa, Rose what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I came for the karaoke. Why?" I asked.
"Oh, just wondering." He said with a smile.
"Reckon' you could sneak us in?" I asked giving him my maneater smile. It was working he had kind of a dazed look on his face as he looked me up and down.
"Huh? yeah sure." he said still in a daze. "This way quick." He then led us through a side door that led right onto the dance floor.
"Great thanks mase, it's been nice to see you!" i said trying to shout over a persons pitchy singing."Bye!" I said, giving him a wave.
"Nooww, lets go find your date!" I said turning to face Liss.
"Oh, yeah we need to find Christian I'm sure you'll love him!" she exclaimed, her eyes scanning the room.
"Yup, I hope so or I'm gonna have to kick his ass!" I said laughing.
"Oooohhh there he is!" she squeeled really excited about seeing her date. "Where? Which one i-" I got cut off by someone tredding on my foot.
I looked up to have a go at the guy that had trodden on me and had to keep looking up and up. Geez this guy was tall. I looked up into a familiar pair of warm brown eyes.
"Dimitri?"
