I hope you like my story so far, sorry it has taken me a couple days to update, but no one was reviewing so I guess I just could not get motivated, anyways here is the next chapter. I hope you like it.
I do not own any of it! (Just saying)
Chapter 4 – Unexpected phone calls
After the whole ordeal with Andre, I felt different and confused. I wanted to be alone now and think about it but as soon as I walked in the door Christian was waiting for me.
"Rose, what the hell? I got out of class with Lissa freaking out because Andre told her to get a ride because he had something to do, and I come to find out he had to go and find you. Would you care to explain why?"
I looked at him, I was at a loss for word for once, I know total shock but hey it happens. "Look Christian these past few weeks have been hell , I mean everyone has been really nice, but I just could not handle it anymore, I mean I just lost my parents. So I left before my last class even started and Andre was in there and followed me because he was worried." I turned to walked up the stairs.
"Rose, wait-"
"No Christian, I am sorry for all the problems I have been causing for you, I'll try and do better not to ruin your 'reputation'." I knew I was being a bitch, but I had a feeling that was one go the reasons he asked why I left because people started talking about me.
Before I could let him say anything else I went to my room and locked the door. I slid down the door and started to silently cry, I thought to myself, why am I such a screw up, I hurt everyone around me. Christian came to the door and knocked lightly.
"Come on Rose, that is not what I meant, you know I love you like a sister and I was really worried about you, I could care less what anyone thinks of you or me. Please let me in."
I tried to stop crying but it was not going to happen anytime soon. "No Christian, its okay I am going to take a shower, we can talk later, but I believe you." And I did believe him to an extent but still part of me feels he was worried about what other people thought.
I decided to take a bath instead hoping it would make me relax and give me more time to think about what had happened today. I was in there for close to an hour, one because I was freezing from being out in the rain and two it took me that long to process everything, mainly about me and Andre. I did know if he did it because he liked me or because I was one of his sister's friends, I guess I would just confront him about it on Monday. On top of that I didn't know how I felt about him, I did like him as a friend but could there be more? I finally got out of the bath after my fingers were like prunes. I put on my favorite pair of sweats and comfy tee and climbed into bed to stay warm. I turned on some music, the first song that came on was 'The Lonely' by Christina Perri, it was perfect for me and my situation
2am, where do I begin
Crying off my face again
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed
I'm the ghost of a girl
That I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl
That I used to know well
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Then you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
Too afraid, to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night
For the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me till I fall asleep
I'm the ghost of a girl
That I want to be most
I'm the shell of a girl
That I used to know well
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Then you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
Broken pieces of
A barely breathing story
Where there once was love
Now there's only me
And the lonely…
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Then you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again
I let out a long breath, know that I really am lonely. Once the song was over I turned off the music, not wanting to listen anymore. Sadly I was not tired so I just lied there; I pull out my phone and was just going to text Andre now. But I just sat there and looked at a blank screen not know what to say, five minutes went by and still nothing, just as I was about to give up my phone began to ring. It was a number I didn't recognized but answered it anyways.
"Hello?"
"Umm… Hey Rose, it's Dimitiri from school, we met the other day?" He sound nervous, and the end sound more of a question, I held back a laugh.
"Yeah, I remember. What do you want?" I was not in the mood.
"I heard what happened at school today, I just wanted to make sure you're okay." Just lovely, it had already made it around school.
"Oh yeah I am just peachy. Really Dimitri that is why you called? Who told you that?"
"Rose, chill. Christian was freaking out after school with Lissa, they didn't know where you were and told me that…Andre… went looking for you." When he said Andre, I could the jealousy in his voice. Why?
"Okay, why were you worried about me? We have maybe talked twice since I started school there, and don't you have a girlfriend?"
"Because Rose, we're… friends. At least I thought we were. And friends care about each other. Two I don't have a girlfriend anymore we broke up last week." Hmm… That's interesting I don't remember that but then again I really was not paying attention to much the past few weeks.
"Well… you have now made this conversation a little on the AWKWARD, so I have to go and do… something, but I do have one more question… where the hell did you get my number?" The other side of the phone fell silent.
"Umm… well, when you gave Lissa your number she left it on the desk, I took it." WOW.
"Well know that you have completely creeped me out, I've gotta go, do sleep or something. Bye Dimitri, but thanks for calling, I guess." I was stocker-ish but sweet none the less.
"Anytime, Goodbye Roza, sweet dreams, see you on Tuesday."
I lied on my bed after that feeling completely confused now, and what the heck did 'Roza' mean? After that I grabbed my phone and text Andre.
Hey, thanks for today, it was really nice to get things off my chest. I am going to bed. I will text you tomorrow. Thanks again. :) –Rose
Within a few minutes my phone vibrated, it was a text from Andre.
Hey beautiful, your welcome, anytime, maybe we can hang out tomorrow, I would like to see you to make sure you're okay. Let me know. Sweet dreams. –Andre
I smiled and text him back.
Of course we can, I will text you when I get up in the morning. Goodnight Andre. –R
Great! See you tomorrow beautiful. :) –A
I crawled under the cover hoping for a good night sleep. But sadly at about 2AM. I was woken up by someone shaking me.
"Rose… it's okay, it Christian, wake up, you're having a bad dream. "
My eye popped open, I was all sweaty, and my hear t was pounding. "Ugh, why can't I just be normal." I started to cry.
Christian pulled me into his arms. "Shh… you are normal, your just having a hard time getting through the death of your parents, there is nothing wrong with that. Now come on scoot over." Christian for the first time got into bed with me and held me until I fell back to sleep.
Okay guys, I could go on, but I am going to end it right there for now. If I have time tonight I will try and update again. I hope you like how I added Dimitri into the equation. Last time I really didn't get any feedback to I hope I am doing okay. REVIEW PLEASE, the more reviews I get the more likely I will update sooner! :) Thanks
P.S.
The Song used, "The Lonely" by Christina Perri, is an amazing song and if you have not heard it you should listen to it. Okay Byeeee!
