Sorry guys, I had to work all weekend. I am super tired but I forced myself to stay awake and finish this chapter. I hope you like it. :) I don't own anything.

Chapter 5 – Life's a beach

I woke up the next morning sleeping next Christian; I was kinda shocked a little at first because he usually slept on the floor, so last night must have been worse than normal. He had a smirk on his face or he either was dreaming about doing something to me or doing something with Lissa, so I took advantage and slipped out of the bed and went to the bathroom and got a glass of ice cold water. I walked over to the side he was sleeping on and dumped it on him.

"Wake up sleepy head, rise and shine!" I said in a mocking tone, then I started laughing.

Christian jumped out of bed like he was one fire. "ROSE, what the hell? Did you really have to do that?" This just made me laugh even harder.

"Well duh, the face you were making was giving me the creeps."

"Then why didn't you just wake me up, I will remember next time when you are having one of your nightmares, I think I will just let you work it out yourself." He was pissed, I didn't think he would have taken it that hard. He was walking towards the door when I called back.

"Aww… Christian come on, I was just playing around, please… you know I need you right now." I felt like I was going to cry.

Christian just stood there with his back to me, then I realized he was laughing at me.

"Ugh. You're such an asshole." I threw a pillow at his head.

"Oww… ha ha two can play at that game. Gotcha Rosie, you know I will always be here for you." He turn back around and walked over and gave me a hug.

"Chrissy, that so sweet, now get the hell out of my room so I can shower your stink off of me." I slapped him upside the head.

"Hey what the hell was that for?" Rubbing the back of his head.

"That was for telling me that before, that was a low blow, even for you." He frowned

"Yeah I know, I'm sorry Rose."

"It's okay, just don't do it again or I might just have to bet the shit out of you."

I winked at him and started for the bathroom. About halfway there I was hit with a pillow.

"Ugh! Asshole" I walked into the bathroom with my phone and before I got into the shower I text Andre.

Good morning, I'm getting into the shower. I should be ready in 30 minute. Let me know what you want to do.

I hopped into the shower, taking time to clean myself of all of Christian stink, ha ha. Once I was out I grabbed my phone and went into my room. It was beautiful outside, I hoped Andre wanted to do something outside.

I walked to my closet and put on some blue jean shorts and a teal tank. I pulled my hair into a messy bun for now, and I would finish getting ready in a little while because it felt like my stomach was eating itself.

I still had not gotten a text from Andre, I wondered why, but I didn't want to text him again and sound desperate. I went down stairs to get my favorite thing to eat, donuts. But before I got to the kitchen I heard Aunt Kate talking to someone, I walked in to Andre standing there. It felt like my jaw hit the ground,

"Well good morning beautiful." He smiled and walked over to give me a hug.

"W-what are you doing here?" I was kinda stunned, he thought it was funny.

"You text me and said thirty minutes and here I am." He smiled again.

"But you never text me back, I'm not completely ready and what are we even doing I might ask."

"Don't worry about anything, I got it all covered, it's a surprise. Now go and finish getting ready, I will wait."

I nodded and headed back to my room, I quickly grabbed a pair of strappy sandals, put on some light make-up and pulled my hair down.

Five minutes later I came back down stairs and Andre was standing alone by the door, he looked up at me and gave me one of his breath taking smiles.

"Rose… wow you look…amazing." I walked the rest of the way down and gave him another hug.

"Thanks, you don't look to bad yourself, so are you going tell me where we are going?" I gave me my best man eater smile.

"Nope, I told you, surprise, now come on let's get this show on the road."

Once we were in the car I was nervous, I was excited too though. Usually I would try to push all this away, but I was embracing it. With Andre I felt like I was turning a new leaf. We had been driving for around thirty minutes and we were getting close to the coast.

"Are we almost there." I asked for the thirteenth time. He just looked over and gave me a wink.

"Ugh come on Andre, please tell me, it's killing me, are we even close? I bet it's the beach right?" I gave him a flirty smile.

He blushed a little, "Yes" that's all he said.

"Really that's all you're going to say is yes? Quit playing around and just –"

That's when we stopped in the parking lot of a beautiful beach, no one else was there so it was just the two of us.

"Wow, this place is beautiful, where did you find it?" We walked to the trunk of the car where there was blankets and a picnic basket.

"A picnic, how sweet. I didn't know you were a softy like our sister Andre?" He laughed at me.

"Actually I just picked the place and she did the rest." He blushed again.

"Figures, no guy could think this up." I winked at him and took the blankets toward the beach.

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" He said following behind.

"Nothing, ugh, sorry there goes my smart mouth, screwing stuff up." I sat on the blankets, not looking at Andre.

He pulled my face up and smiled. "Hey don't worry about it, I know I that I could not have done this all by myself because I would have screwed something up, like forgot the blankets or not packed silverware." He kissed my forehead and gave me a hug.

Being so close to Andre I wished he would just kiss me for real. Andre was had been so nice to me and not to mention he was so hot, but still didn't know how he felt about me.

We ate the lunch Lissa packed for us, and then took a walk on the beach. It was getting cool and since no one told me we were going to the beach I didn't know to bring a jacket. Luckily Andre gave me his to wear. It was too big but at this point I didn't care, I was warm now.

"You look good in that" He said laughing.

"Thanks, jerk, I guess if someone who have gave me a heads up then maybe I would have one that fits." Slapping him in the arm playfully.

"Hey I think you look beautiful in anything." He stopped and grabbed my hands and looked him in the eye. His eyes were breathtaking, gorgeous pools of green.

"Thank you, you're so amazing, you have helped me so much in the past few days."

That's when my heart took over and I got on my tippy toes and kissed him. It felt so right, but then I realized he was not kissing me back. Shit. My heart sank, I pulled away and he looked confused.

"I…I'm sorry, I should not have done that." I ran before he could say anything back.

I can't believe I was so stupid Tears were streaming down my face. I stopped once I reach the rocks at the end of the beach, I sat on one and sobbed.

"Rose! Rose! What's wrong? Why did you run?" He was breathing hard.

"I-I I'm sorry, I-I-I shouldn't have don't t-that, i-it w-a-as st-tupid. I-I-I know y-y-yyou d-on't like m-me th-th-that w-way." I said between sobs.

"What are you talking about?" He started laughing.

I just stared at him. I finally stopped crying. "Well I'm glad you think it's funny, can you please take me home now."

I got up and started walking towards the car, but before I passed Andre he grabbed my wrist.

"Rose, wait, I didn't mean to laugh I was just shocked, I do like you, a lot. I was just trying to give you space, just be your friend even though I wanted to be much more than that. I didn't expect to feel the same way so quick. I have liked you since the first time we met."

That's when he pulled me into a sweet but passionate kiss. I felt so happy, it was like a part that I thought I lost when my parents died I found again. I felt safe.

Our kissing quickly picked up. His tongue traced my bottom lip, I granted entrance. We kissed for a while before I finally pushed him away.

"I'm sorry I can't do this." I felt like crying again.

"Rose, it's okay, we can take it as slow as you want, I will be here for you. " He tried to hug me but I back away.

"No, I'm a screw up and I will only cause you pain, I can't make you do this." I started away Andre grabbed my waist.

"You are not a screw up and I don't want to hear that out of your mouth EVER again. You are strong and will get through and will be here for you, promise." He pulled me into and hug and kissed me again.

We walked back to the car with Andre's arm around my shoulders. The car ride was quite. I just looked out the window trying to figure out why an amazing guy like Andre would care so much about me.

When we got back to the house Andre walked me to the door.

"Thanks, I really had a good day, I hope you were not to freaked by me." He smiled.

"Well…" I smacked him in the arm.

"Oww… Hey I was kidding. I had a great time and I hope we can do it again soon."

"Me too, goodnight Andre."

"Goodnight beautiful" He kissed my forehead before walking toward the car.

"Text me later." He yelled from the car.

I walked in feeling really good about today even though there were a few rough spots. Then I was hit with reality, and its name is Christian, did I mention he was really getting on my nerves today?

"So is it official yet?" Christian said with a smirk on his face.

"Were you watching us?" Putting my hands on my hips.

"Well you weren't hiding it."

"If you must know, we like each other, but we are taking it slow." Feeling butterflies in my stomach saying this.

"Good for you Rose you deserve some happiness." He gave me a hug.

"Uh, thanks. Well, goodnight." I felt really awkward, I went upstairs before it could get anymore. Once in my room I got into my PJs and got into bed.

I checked my phone before going to sleep. Three new text messages.

One was from Lissa.

I heard you spend the day with my brother, I hope you had fun. We should have hang out tomorrow and go shopping. Girl's day! And you can tell me all about it. :) -Lissa

I smiled and text her back.

OF course we can. I need it. I'll pick you up around 12:30. See you then! –Rose

The next text message was from Andre.

I had a blast today. Miss you already. Sweet dreams beautiful XOXO -A

I almost just called him to be able to hear his voice, but I didn't think he would still be awake.

I did too. I'll see you tomorrow, having a girls day with LIss. Sweet dreams Andre. Xoxo -R

Then I read the last one which I didn't expect, it was from Dimitri.

Hey Roza, I hope your weekend is going good. I just was to know, there is a party tomorrow night at Eddie's, everyone is going, I just wanted to know if you wanted to go. –Dimitri

Well… This is weird.

Hey Dimitri, I am not sure if I am going yet. But if I do I will see you there. My weekend is going really well, thanks for caring. –Rose

Before I read any other text message I fell asleep.

Ha ha keeping the triangle strong. Don't worry Dimitri will be more in the next chapters. What do you thing should happen? Do you like Rose and Andre being together? " Review THANKS FOR READING!
