Chapter 12: The cheated and the secret

X 4 months later X

'Another Torretto party, another win. Same old, Same old.' Rose thought sitting on the floor watching Letty. She noticed Leon was gon and decided he probably was off dancing or something and walked upstairs. She was tired and has a migrain. She heard a bump come from inside the room and figured Leon was changing or something so she opened the door and quickly shut it. She was in horror of what she had seen. Leon was in there with another girl. All she could do was faint.

X 2 hours later X

Rose woke up at the bottom of the stairs with a throbibng head and ankel. She felt the dried blood on her face. She got up slowly and saw the party still going on. She stumbled to and down the stairs. She crawled into her former room and shut the door. She was glad she had sound proofed it. Once the door was shut there was silence. She washed her face off and began to cry. She put and end to that and bandaged her ankle with and Ace bandage so she could use it. She walked upstairs and got some extreme asprin. She then grabbed one of her water bottles from the fridge. She walked back downstairs unnoticed, or so she thought.

An hour later Jared walked down stairs looking for Rose. He opedned her door and saw her staring at the ceiling. He ran over and jumped on her playfully. Then her noticed the gash on her forehead and the strange look in her eyes. He got off of her and shook her.

"Rose what's wrong with you! What happened! TELL ME!" Jared said frantically.

"Jared. He ch-ch-cheated on me. I walked in on him and some blonde skank. God the pain. I can't take it and no one can ever see that I'm broken" Rose said trying hard to hold back the tears. Jared pulled her into his lap and said:

"Rose you can break in front of me. I won't tell anyone. Rose I'll stay here as long as you want. I'll do anything for you." She burried her face in his chest and started to cry. He rubbed her back and moved her to sit so her chest was against his rocking her back and forth soothingly. She stopped sobbing after an hour or two. She leaned back and said:

"Jared you are my best friend and I love you. Thanks so much for this."

Jared lloked down at her. Her eyes were all red and puffy, her hair was a complete mess, she had a gash on her forehead and brusies on her face and yet she was still the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. This mad him smile. "You've been my best friend always. I would do anything for you babe and I love you so much." He said kissing the top of her head. "I'll let you sleep now." He said trying to get up.

"No! you can't leave ! I can't be by myself!" She said starting to cry again.

"Shhhhh. It's ok I'll stay. Lay down I'll sit down here and wait 'til you fall asleep." He said laying her down.

"This is weird. I never sleep alone." She said staring at the ceiling.

"Do you want me to stay that bad?" Jared asked. Rose nodded and Jared went and changed into a pair of pajama pant. He came back with his pillow and climbed into bed next to Rose. Rose rolled over up against him and put his arms around herself. 'Well if this is what she want.' Jared thought.

"I love you Jared. Good night." She said sleepily.

"I love you so much Rose. Night." Jared said watching her as she fell asleep. 'She looks like an angel when she sleeps.' He thought. He kissed her forehead and nestled in. He slowly fell asleep. He was so happy that he didn't want to fall asleep.

He awoke early the next morning and couldn't get back to sleep. He went upstairs to find Dom and Brian talking in the living room.

"Whats up Jare?" Brian asked. "Somethings wrong."

"Guys I have a confession to make twisted in with a story to tell…" He started.

"Well, go on.." Dom said curiously.

"Guys I love her. I've loved her for as long as I can remember. Las night I had to see her broken and upset. Watch the sadness and pain flow out of her and I couldn't fix it. I've always fixed it before but I couldn't. I love her so much. I dunno what to do though. Should I tell her or not? She walked in on Leon and some other chick last night, fainted, and fell down the stairs. She said she stumbled to her room and washed off the face which had blood caked on it from the gash on her forehead and bandaged her ankle that she spraned or broke. She then came up here got one of her water bottle and mondo asprin. She went back down and I saw some one go down so I went to see who it was a while later. I found her and she explained. She broke down. She cried and I couldn't stop her or make it better. I realized no matter how much I lvoer her beautiful face, her sparkling eyes, her personality, she has to figure it out on her own and I can't fix it for her." Jared said kind of speedy and obviously repeating himself without knowin it.

"Whoa, Leon did what!" Dom said angrilly, Hatred was pouring off of both him and Brian.

"Cool down a minute ok guys." Jared said They relaxed and Dom turned to Jared.

"Hey man if you love her that much tell her. You're the kid of guy she needs. She trusts you already. You're what she needs J, you really are." Dom said.

"What who needs?" said Rose's voice as she entered the kitchen.

"You." Said Dom. "Oh babe I'm sorry about Leon. Come here." Dom said pulling her into his arms. He released her. The events from last night flooded back. She began to tear up and turned to Jared. She curled up in a ball on his lap and cried.

"Shhhhh, It's ok Rose, Everything is gonna be ok." He said rubbing her back. He pickedh er up and set her in Dom's lap. "Take her for a moment. Shes calming." Dom took her and rubbed her back. Brian ran his fingers through her hair. She was sniffling when Jared returned with a cup of Hot chocolate. He set it on the table in front of her and sat in the chair he had been sitting in before. She grabbed the hot chocolate, went and curled back up in Jared's lap again. He let her and kissed the top of her head.

"Guys I'm confessing this. I have been ordering for Henry, but I'm quitting tonight and her will wanna kill me. Brian can you get me a permit for 2 guns and the guns also. It will make me feel better." Rose said. Brian nodded.

"I want you with one of us at all times please Rose." Dom pleaded. She nodded. Jared kissed her head again and said "I want that gash looked at and that ankle too." He said. She nodded again. He picked her up and gave her to Brian. "I have to take a shower." He said. He disappeared down stairs.
