Chapter 2 – just my luck
After spending an hour at the counselor's office, she finally realized that I was pretty far ahead because I was in an advanced school before, so I had enough credits to be a junior instead of a sophomore. Great. Another reason for everyone to give me more look, not that I mattered that much.
The counselor, Miss Smith, I think that was her name, said she wanted to see me once a week for a awhile to see how I am 'handling' things, meaning what happened with my parents. UGH! I really didn't want to talk to anyone about it, my aunt, uncle, and Christian really didn't even know much except from what the police and hospital told them. We were coming home from a family weekend and were struck by a drunk driver in a truck, hitting the passenger side. It killed my mother instantly, my father died on the way to the hospital, and I walked away with scraps, bruises, and severe whiplash. But I little part of me died that night too because I lost the two most important people in my life, but no one knows that except me. Every times someone tries to ask me for more detail I just start freaking out and cannot handle it. Now I have nightmares about it, I know its coming and I cannot do anything from stopping it so I relive it over and over again. Maybe if I told someone they would stop but I just can't right now.
Once everything was situated with Miss Smith, I was off to my first class even though it was almost over. It was English, not one of my favorites but whatever. When I walked in the teacher was giving a lecture but then stopped and everyone turned to look at me. I looked around not see anyone I had met earlier, but finally seeing Adrian.
I walked over to the teacher, "Hi I am new, I'm Rose Hathaway." That's when the whispers started; I could feel my face start to get red.
"Yes, Miss Hathaway, I have been expecting you, please take the empty seat in the back." I nodded and started towards the seat, noticing it was next to Adrian. I sank into the seat; trying to be invisible because I knew everyone was talking about the accident it was quite popular on the news.
"Hey, we met this morning right? I'm Adrian, aren't you supposed to be in sophomore classes?" Adrian said with a smirk on his face.
"Well, that's what I thought two until I found out there were no advanced classes, so they moved me into all junior level classes. Do you have a problem with that?" I said in a smart tone.
"Chill, I could care less what you do, it was just a question, you need to watch yourself, don't want to be rude to the wrong people." He smirked
"I could also care less what you or anyone thinks of me." Who did this guy think he was telling me this because he was pissing me off, I turned and faced the teacher and maybe I could focus on what she was talking about but I could see Adrian staring at me the rest of the class.
Finally the bell rang, I was out the door as fast I could because I had no idea where I was going next, before I made it out, Adrian grabbed my wrist.
"Hey, Rosie is that you name? Anyway do you even know where you are going next?" I pulled my wrist out of his grasp.
"It's ROSE. And I can find it without your help." Looking back down at my schedule but he quickly snatched it out of my hands. "HEY!"
"Oh Rosie, let me see, we have class together next, here let me walk you." Handing me back my schedule.
"It's ROSE! Please don't call me that, and fine just because I don't want to be late, I will walk with you."
"I like Rosie thought, it suits you. Shall we go to class?" I groaned but fallowed him down the hallway.
Next class was history, which was going to be a total bore but what was I going to do? We walked in and I stopped in my tracks, there they were, Andre and Dimitri, sitting in the back next to two empty desks.
"Come on, Rosie, let me introduce you to the guys again." I took a deep breath and walked to one of the empty desks. Both of them stopped talking and watch me as a sat down.
"Hey guys, this is Rosie." Adrian introduced me and I really didn't appreciate it. I groaned again.
"PLEASE DO NOT CALL ME THAT. My name is Rose, and if you want to keep walking strait, don't follow his example on calling me that other name." I gave a big smile.
They looked kinda shocked, hearing that come from a girl. Dimitri spoke up first.
"Ugh, Rose, I'm Dimitri, nice to meet you." He gave me a smile. He was gorgeous, he was in a tight black shirt that showed every muscle perfectly, I wanted to touch them, but I think he has a girlfriend, so I am not going to go there. I didn't need drama I had too much already.
Then Andre spoke up. "I'm Andre, nice to meet you, hey didn't you say you were a sophomore?" Ugh. This question was going to get old fast.
"Long story, but not anymore, I am officially a junior."
"Nice." He smiled, and wow was it stunning. Seeing him this morning I would have never thought he would have a smile like that, I wanted to melt. NO ROSE you cannot do this, you don't this, you can hardly handle yourself right now.
The rest of the morning was kinda a blur, I had math after that, and the boys were all in there as well. I was finally feeling comfortable around them, except for the fact that Adrian would not stop calling me Rosie and it was getting annoying, I wondered if Christian put him up to it, I would find out after school.
Lunch came and Andre walked with me. We got out lunch and walked over to the table with the whole gang sitting around it, there were two spots left one next Lissa and one next to Dimitri. I took the one next to Lissa because she was giving me a huge smile because I was walking with her brother.
Before we sat down Andre whispered, "You know this is what she wants."
I looked at him confused even though I knew what he was talking about.
He gave me a half smile which was the cutest thing, "you and me, together, like a couple?" I started feeling my face turn red. Why was I doing this I didn't need a boyfriend right now, I cannot handle it, I was broken right now and needed time to be healed before I could even think about that stuff.
Before said anything, we were at the table and Lissa looked like she was going to bounce out of her seat. "Where were you this morning, you were not in any of my classes? I figured you would be in at least one." That's when Christian chimed in "Yeah, pleased don't tell me you are skipping." I reached over smacked his head.
"Of course I am skipping! I just know that is the best thing to do on my first day of school. I figured I would try a badass image. " Lissa jaw dropped. Christian gave me the: I am not buying it look.
"No I am not skipping you idiot, I was moved up to junior level classes, because of my old school, ask Andre, we have had almost every class together." He looked over when I said his name and nodded. Lissa looked almost as shocked as she did when I told her I was skipping.
"Uh Liss are you okay?" I snapped in front of her face.
"Yeah, just stunned a little, that great!" I knew she what she meant by great. Great now you can spend more time with my brother great. This girl was just not going to give up. UGH!
The rest of the day went by pretty quick, I had self-defense with Lissa because it was an all-girl class, she was happy and I was too, I need a girlfriend to be able to talk to about girl stuff.
After that I had, Chemistry, when I walked in the only one in there I knew was Andre, just lovely. I really didn't need this right now. Today had drained me, see everyone so happy and care free made me so sad I wished I could feel like that. I sat down next to him because it was the seat the teacher told me to sit in, my luck.
"Hey Rose, you okay?" He looked a little concerned.
"Just peachy" I laid my head on the table face away from him hoping he would get the hint.
Luckily he did, and he did not speak to me for the rest of the class until the bell rang. I was putting my stuff together.
"Umm. Rose, I you don't look okay, but if you want to someone to talk to I am here." That's when he handed me his number. "Class whenever, I will answer." He smiled at me and walked out.
Great. This is not what I wanted, he liked me. But I did I like him back? Yes? I groaned and walk towards the car, thinking about what I was going to do. That's when I saw Christian waiting by the car with Dimitri, he is SO HOT! But at the moment I was more focused on getting home.
"Come on Christian, I am ready to go please. I don't feel very good." I hopped into the front seat of the car.
"Hey Rose" Dimitri said as I was getting into the car. But I just waved not in the mood to be social anymore.
Christian said bye and got into the car and looked at me. "Rose, are you okay?" I shook my head .Tears were filling my eyes, I was trying to fight them back but it was not working.
We got home and I ran into my room before my Aunt could even ask me how my day was, and to be honest it was not bad at all, but as I got closer to the end of the day I knew that I wanted to go home and tell my parents about my day, but I knew they wouldn't be there waiting for me.
This is why I didn't want a boyfriend, I was broken, and I didn't want anyone else having to put up with this dark place that I was in. I cried myself to sleep, and the nightmare was right there waiting for me.
Okay, how do you like it. Rose is broken. Why won't she tell anyone about the accident? Does she feel it's her fault? What about her and Andre? Or her and Dimitri? Tell me what you think! :) I have to work tomorrow hopefully I will update after I get off! Thanks again for reading!
