"Rosie?"

Carter rubbed her eyes as she sat up in bed confusedly. She raised her fingers to her lips as she wondered what had just happened. She was certain that she felt a pair of soft lips against her own. She looked to her side and found Rosie sleeping soundly. She sighed softly and chuckled as she chalked up her confusion to a dream. It wouldn't have been the first time she dreamt of her friend.

She stretched her muscles and smiled at the feeling of being completely relaxed. She always slept the best when she was with Rosie. She attempted crawling over Rosie's sleeping frame slowly to avoid waking her up. Carter, however, had a tendency of being clumsy and failed her landing when she hopped off the bed. She groaned lowly as she held onto her sore foot while sitting on the wooden floor. She hissed every so often as she tried to soothe the small ache. Once she was sure enough that she could walk again without feeling pain, she shot right back up.

Carter was intrigued by the sight of Rosie mumbling in her sleep again. She didn't understand what the girl was saying just like the previous night, but Carter enjoyed hearing those words spill from lips.

"Bésame." *Kiss me.* Rosie said breathily. It was barely a whisper but Carter had heard them regardless. She watched in silence as she attempted to understand what the girl was saying. She had no such luck as usual. Carter took a mental note to pay more attention during Spanish classes; Rosie's sleep talking was becoming more frequent and maybe if she knew the basics then she would understand what the girl was saying.

Carter was about to turn and reach for her towel and head to the bathroom, but she was stopped by her curiosity when she heard a small whimper. She bit her lip softly when she saw a flushed Rosie with parted lips. She knew that at that point she'd been staring for long enough to be considered a creep, but the sight in front of her had her firmly planted in place.

Rosie's eyes were closed as her brows furrowed and she moaned softly. Carter's eyes widened comically as she licked her lips. She thought for a moment that she hadn't ever woken up and she was still dreaming, but she was made sure that she was awake when she pinched her arm. She would have whined about the sharp pinch if she hadn't been distracted by Rosie's pouty lips and the small breathy sounds that came from them.

Rosie's right hand gripped the bed sheets tightly as her left hand made a slow trail from her thigh to her toned stomach. Carter licked her lips yet again as she pieced together exactly what was happening as that oh so naughty and daring hand traced figures on the exposed skin of her stomach. Rosie's hand slowly inched upwards until her pajama top rested barely by the underside of her breasts.

"Tócame." *Touch me*

Carter's eyes felt heavy with the weight of her growing desire. There was something about the sight of the princess being so uninhibited that drove her insane with want. She was almost positive that the girl was having some kind of an erotic dream. Carter held back a whimper of her own when she saw lithe fingers moved down towards the waistband of the pajama bottoms Rosie wore. Carter fought to keep her eyes open under the intensity of what was happening in her presence. In her mind she will that hand to reach under the pajama, but stopped herself from going too far in her fantasy. She felt a jolt of electricity run throughout her body; from her head to the very tips of her toes as Rosie raked her nails slowly against her silky skin. She was sure that she was blushing and bit her lip expectantly each time the princess' fingers inched toward her pajama bottoms with little whimpers and moans.

Carter shook her head as she attempted to snap out of her Rosie induced coma. She wasn't expecting to be knocked right back into it when Rosie bit her lip as she inhaled sharply. "Oh Dios, Carter."

What?

"What?" Carter voiced her thoughts as her mind raced and questions floated around her head. Despite having decided to leave just moments ago, she was glued to her spot again as she waited for Rosie's next move.

Was she really dreaming about her?

Carter sighed when her friend turned over in bed and the sleep talking stopped. She took deep breaths to calm her rapid beating heart as she attempted to gain control of her legs again. She groaned once she moved from her spot when she felt the warm wetness between her legs. She shook her head with a chuckle.

"I'm going to hell." She muttered. She took one last glance at the sleeping princess before moving around to collect some clothes and a towel to take with her to the bathroom. She definitely needed a shower after what she'd just witnessed. She wondered whether or not Rosie would recall anything that had happened and thought to possibly ask the girl. She decided that didn't want to make Rosie uncomfortable and bring it up so frankly, so she continued to think of ways to address it. And then Carter thought about one of the key points –Spanish- . She recalled the words that Rosie said and took a note in her head to write them down somewhere as best she could.

Wouldn't it be weird to just ask what they mean?

What if she asks where I heard them?

Carter thought as she came up with an idea immediately after. Instead of randomly bringing up the words, she would ask Rosie to give her Spanish lessons. She 'd benefit by learning the language eventually and subtlety finding out what those words mean to her. Carter knew she could just google the words if she wanted to, but she felt her idea was the best way because she was sure Rosie would be an excellent teacher.

-X-

Rosie smiled mischievously as she heard the door close behind Carter. She sat up and buried her face in her hands atop her propped up knees. She squealed as she let out what little adrenaline rush she felt from teasing Carter. The moment her name had fallen from Carter's lips, Rosie thought she'd been caught. She'd quickly laid back down and pretended to be asleep in hopes that Carter wouldn't call her out on the kiss. Rosie couldn't particularly point out why she'd chosen to tease Carter with her words and earlier actions, but she knew that she didn't regret it.

Rosie bit her lip as she contemplated what her mother would say if she knew what her daughter was up to. She would probably, no, she wouldn't be accepting of any of it. She rolled her eyes as she imagined her mother bickering about princes and royalty amongst other things Rosie saw as unimportant. She wondered why her mother always trivialized her feelings and chalked them up to teenage fantasy. Rosie couldn't stand it anymore; every time she was near Carter Mason her heart soared out of her chest and stopped with every passing second. She'd never experienced such feelings of desire, lust, need, connection towards another human being. It was slightly transcendental, she thought, the way her body and soul belong to Carter without her being aware of it. Rosie's heart was constantly playing a tug of war with her mind and emotions; she just wanted to let go and fall into the arms of the beautiful girl she loved so much.

If Rosie were asked when she started feeling such a way, she'd probably tell you that it started the very first day she saw Carter even though she wasn't a believer of love at first sight. She was sitting by the window in Carter's room as she gazed at the lake and the way the sun bounced off of it. She used the view as a distraction from her thoughts of what had happened back in Costa Luna. She was worried and simply devastated to have been taken away from her country and her mother, regardless if it was for her wellbeing or not. She rested her head against the window with a deep sigh as she contemplated between staying with Major Mason as she was instructed and running away.

At some point Rosie had resigned herself to stay put and that was when she was welcomed with Carter's presence; such a powerful one at that. Rosie saw the confusion on her face the moment their eyes met for the first time. She wasn't hospitable in the slightest, but Rosie could tell they would eventually get along.

They did; they started getting along wonderfully and Rosie's school girl crush started deepening into much more confusing feelings. After Carter had risked herself so selflessly for her wellbeing something had ignited within Rosie. At first she was filled with an amazing amount of adoration for the girl, she swooned because she was just so chivalrous; she was absolutely terrified at the thought of losing Carter because she deemed Rosie worthy of her protection and then she felt angry; so very upset because it was as if Carter had open the floodgates to her heart and she'd never felt so cared for in her entire life. They'd cried in each other's arms and Rosie held onto her tighter and longer than she probably should have. She relished the feeling of Carter's strong arms around her; her nose pressed softy against Rosie's neck as they sobbed out of happiness that they were okay.

But, then again, maybe Rosie would tell you that it wasn't love at first sight. She'd tell you that the first couple of days she'd spent with Carter were anything but pleasant and nice. They'd argued several times, Carter wanted nothing to do with her because in some way Rosie had made memories of her mother resurface. That was all until their hands brushed for the first time, their eyes met for a moment and neither girls spoke a word; it wasn't until they had their first real conversation, or the time they stayed up all night wrapped up in a blanket together as they sat on the swing outside, that Rosie started seeing the girl in another light. Maybe it was those other nights they spent on the phone when Rosie was home in Costa Luna. And then sometimes, most of the times Rosie felt as if it was something ongoing. She could never really pin point exactly when she'd developed feelings for Carter because it was something that grew daily and she fell in love a little bit more every day. She nodded as she thought; it's hard to tell when it started and it's even harder to tell if it will ever end.

She smiled and lifters her fingers to her lips as she remembered the feeling of having Carter's soft lips beneath her own. The memory helped solidify Rosie's plan to continue teasing her friend. In hindsight, she thought, it wasn't the best of plans and it made absolutely no sense, but she figured Carter didn't know Spanish and she had nothing to lose.

Part of her 'plan' was to pour her feelings out to Carter. She'd been pretending to be sleeping on several occasions as she spoke words in Spanish; it was her way of expressing her feelings for the girl. Silly as it seemed, Rosie felt as though she would have spontaneously combusted had she never said a word about her feelings. It hurt Rosie to think that she wasn't brave enough to just admit them aloud for Carter to hear, but she got close enough to doing so her way.

She giggled shyly as she realized that she may have overdone it during her last attempts, but in a way she wanted to show Carter how much she needed her touch. It was so sensual; her dreams took her to a magical place where all Rosie saw, felt and tasted was Carter. Rosie wanted to express that to her somehow and have her caress her, whisper tender words in her ear as she made her dreams come true. Rosie exhaled a breath and fanned her face with her hand as she felt herself getting heated.

"Hey." She was startled by Carter's voice and stoop up quickly from bed with a smile.

"Hey." Rosie responded shyly. She didn't know what to say after she'd just been thinking such sexual things about her friend. She felt more at ease when she caught sight of Carter's rosy cheeks and the way she'd look around the room to avoid eye contact.

"So…" Carter started as she circled around Rosie. "How did you sleep last night?"

Rosie tried her hardest to avoid blushing, but there was no way to hide it.

"I slept very well. I will go and prepare myself for the day now." Rosie said quickly. Carter narrowed her eyes slightly and giggled at her friends antics; she was always so prim and proper.

"Rosie." Rosie felt a pair of familiar hands hold onto her arm softly to keep her from leaving. Carter looked at her expectantly and averted her gaze a couple of times before continuing. "I wanna ask you something before you go." Rosie nodded with a gulp as she hopped they weren't about to talk about her earlier display. "Can you do me a favor?"

Rosie smiled warmly; she would do anything for the girl. "Yes of course Carter. What is this favor that you need?"

"I um…" Carter paused as she stumbled with her words, Rosie's smile widened at the adorableness. "Do you think maybe you… maybe you could…" Rosie giggled and held both of Carter's hands in her own. She squeezed them reassuringly and gently stroked the back of her hands with her thumbs.

"Carter, I would do anything for you." She replied softly. Carter smiled and nodded. "Please tell me what you need."

"Will you teach me how to speak Spanish?" It was barely a murmur. Rosie raised an eyebrow at her friend questioningly and urged her to repeat her question. Once Carter did, however, she worried that she'd been caught. Why does she suddenly want to learn Spanish? Carter noticed the worry on Rosie's face; she didn't want to mess things up because of her request so she went on to explain her reasoning falsely. "It's just that I like someone in school who knows Spanish and I want to be able to speak with them." It wasn't entirely false.

Rosie's heart dropped the moment she heard Carter. She felt her lips begin to quiver and fought hard to avoid frowning and giving away her sadness. She bit her lip and nodded with understanding even though she felt as if her chest was about to cave in. It was a horrible feeling, but Rosie wanted to be a good friend so she continued the conversation.

"Do I know this person?" She asked curiously. Her eyes were fixed on a sock thrown across the room as she thought about whom Carter's crush could be. Donnie? Ed? Rosie stopped herself from cringing at the thought of Carter with either of the boys.

"Nope." Carter answered precariously. She wasn't expecting Rosie to ask who she was talking about.

Rosie nodded dejectedly and plastered the best smile she could considering the news she'd just been given. Her priority was to find out who had maneuvered their way into Carter's heart and not crying about it.

"Okay Carter. I will on one condition." Carter smiled and nodded. "You show me who this person you like is." Rosie didn't wait for a response; she smiled and promptly walked out of the room leaving a wide eyed and bewildered Carter behind.

"Damn it; I shouldn't have made that stupid excuse up." Carter muttered as she crossed her arms deep in thought. She paced her room as she thought of a way to get out of 'showing' Rosie her secret crush. "She doesn't even know I'm gay!" She said exasperatedly. Carter sighed and rubbed her head. She had some thinking to do.
