"Adeline Elizabeth Rockwell." Jocelyn stated when she stood in front
of her friend's homeroom desk.
"Yes?" Adele, as she was known, asked innocently looking up.
"Don't 'yes?' me. Who'd you give my combo to?" Jo asked sternly getting to the point.
"Sorry Jojo, can't tell. I promised. But I can promise you that you'll find out on the twelfth hour when the dozen is complete." Adele stated just as she had been told to.
"Ugh!" Jocelyn cried angrily throwing up her as she went to take her seat. ~*~The second rose~*~
Jocelyn's fingers were tapping rhythmically on her desk as Mr. Macleroy droned on. The clock's second hand was about 10 seconds from striking nine o'clock. 10.9.8.7.6.5.4.3.2.1. *knock knock*
'Freaky' Jocelyn thought as she stared hard at the door as if she could see through it. Mr. Macleroy stopped speaking and also stared at the door. After a second he walked over and the door so only he could see who was on the other side. Jo stretched her neck to catch a glimpse but it was hopeless. She sighed as Mr. Macleroy closed the door with a rose in one hand and a note in the other. He smiled down at her when he handed them to her.
"Who was that?" She half whispered to him, but he didn't answer. He just smiled wider. She set the rose on the desk and read the note as he went on with the lecture. This time, the note read:
Hope I've got you curious now.
A/N: to save you all from boring rose letters, and for lack of ideas, I'm skipping ahead.
~*~The tenth rose~*~
Jocelyn was now pacing in her room. Only two more roses until she received the last one and found out who'd been sending them too her. She moved to her door and when she opened it, her father stood in the hall with his fist in the knocking position and he held a rose.
"For ma' lady." He joked handing it too her. She chuckled as she took it.
"No note?" She asked.
"Nope." He said trying to make a quick break.
"Wow, wow, wow." She said stopping him. He slowly turned to face her. "Who told you to give me this?"
"Can't tell ya sweetie. Two hours." He put his hands up in defense and walked away.
"Yes?" Adele, as she was known, asked innocently looking up.
