Chapter 10
"Kris, can we seriously just go to sleep?" Rosalina complained as Kristina put another DVD in Rosalina's TV. "Cooper has us getting to the studio tomorrow at a ridiculous hour for the show."
"Awh come on R, we never have girls nights anymore." Kristina told her as Kristina cracked open the window and crawled back in bed next to Rosalina.
"Okay really, with the window?" Rosalina whined. "You do realize its February right?"
"Yes I do; in fact, I do realize that one of the greatest holidays is only minutes away!" Kristina said with excitement.
"It's only a great holiday when you're not fighting with your boyfriend." Rosalina rolled her eyes.
"I'm sure you and Nat will be fine in no time, okay?" Kristina said encouragingly to her best friend. "Now just try not to think about it, alright?"
"Hard to do that when you're making me watch Dear John, you dork." Rosalina said sarcastically, causing Kristina to stick her tongue out at her. A familiar song started playing and Rosalina sat up in bed, looking around the room to see where it was coming from. She glanced at her best friend, who smiled and pointed towards the window. Rosalina jumped up and ran to the barely cracked open window to find all of her friends. Luke waved from behind a camera, capturing her reaction and turning it back on Nat. The State of Grace girls were holding a banner that said, "Happy Valentine's Day!" And of course, her favorite boys were all behind their instruments, with Nat standing in front of them all with his guitar.
If you make me stay outside
For a glance that lasts the night,
If you put me in distress,
I won't love you any less.
I won't love you any less.
"What are you waiting for? Go down there and see your man!" Kristina smiled as she saw tears well up in Rosalina's eyes. Rosalina ran out of her room and down the stairs, with Kristina following behind her.
If you twist my fragile heart,
And it breaks into pieces in the dark,
If you leave a dangerous mess,
I won't love you any less.
I won't love you any less.
As Rosalina ran out of her front door, she took a seat on her front steps just to soak it all in. No matter what happened between her and Nat, it could never be that bad.
If I try to hold your hand,
If I try to make you bend,
If you start calling' me obsessed,
I won't love you any less.
I won't love you any less.
Nat walked towards her, taking his guitar off and setting it aside. He grabbed her hands in his and continued to sing to her.
When I'm old and grey,
I've got no wings but you've flown away,
You've put me at quite a test,
But I won't love you any less.
No, I won't love you any less.
I won't love you any less.
"No matter what happens between us, I will never love you any less than I do at this very moment. I promise I will never push you into doing anything you don't want to do anymore. I respect you more than anyone and I hate when we fight because it's like a part of me is missing. I…" Nat was interrupted by Rosalina pulling him into a kiss.
"I love you Nat Wolff." Rosalina smiled.
"You didn't even let me finish my speech babe, it was a good one." Nat complained but Rosalina shut him up with another kiss.
"I'd kind of rather kiss you, is that okay boyfriend?" Rosalina grinned.
"Oh more than okay," Nat smirked, giving her another kiss.
"Hey dude, we're gonna take off." Thomas said to Nat, interrupting his and Rosalina's kiss. "Gotta get the girls home."
"Oh hey, no problem. Thanks for the help boys." Nat smiled, shaking hands with the boys. "Oh, you ladies as well. Good luck on the show tomorrow, we'll all be there to cheer you on."
"It was a pleasure Nat," Ellie smiled. "We'll leave you two to finish your making up."
"Oh we've got a week's worth of fighting to make up for." Rosalina smiled as the boys and State of Grace started to walk away. "Where were we?"
"I think right about…here." Nat kissed Rosalina hard, leading her towards her front door.
"What? We don't even get a thank you, Wolff?" Luke yelled from his truck as him and Kristina finished packing the equipment into it. Nat and Rosalina broke apart from their kiss, startled.
"Yeah, guess the sleepover is cancelled now, huh R?" Kristina laughed as they approached the happy couple.
"Thanks for being a good best friend Kris," Rosalina said, giving her best friend a hug as Nat and Luke shook hands.
"You'd do the same thing for me," Kristina smiled. "Have fun with your boy; don't let him have too much fun though."
"Haha very funny," Rosalina laughed. "But I think I'm finally ready, so here's your warning."
"Ahh well good luck and be careful." Kristina whispered. "See you in the morning."
"Good night," Rosalina said as Luke and Kristina headed towards his car and Nat and Rosalina headed into her house.
"Well, happy Valentine's Day baby." Luke told his girlfriend as they got into his truck. He reached over and put his hand on her leg. "I'm glad I have you in my life."
"I love you Lukey." Kristina smiled, grabbing his hand. "Now take me to Taco Bell, your girl wants a beefy 5 layer."
Meanwhile…
"Wow if this is what I get after a huge romantic gesture, I think I'll do it more often." Nat grinned as him and Rosalina were making out on her bed. "Maybe I should make you mad more often."
"Nat, I'm ready." Rosalina told her boyfriend as they lay in bed.
"Ready for bed?" Nat asked, starting to get up. "I'll head home then…."
"No babe, I'm ready." Rosalina said, pulling him back down on top of her. "I want you, Nat Wolff."
"Are you sure? I won't think any less of you if you want to wait. Like I said, or sang I guess, I won't love you any less if you're not ready. I know I want to spend the rest of my life with you so whenever you want it to happen, it'll happen." Nat told her, kissing her forehead.
"Nat, I'm telling you I'm ready." Rosalina told him. "So you better hurry up before I change my mind."
"Yes mam," Nat smiled, yanking his shirt off over his head and kissing Rosalina hard.
