Olive's text had my chest constricting. I need her to be okay. I need this to not be cancer, even if we are all thinking it is. She shouldn’t have to deal with this. It isn't right. She deserves a much happier life, and I plan on giving it to her. No matter what the results of the biopsy, I plan on bringing her joy.
Lucas: I'll be there Rose.
Rose:Thanks.
Lucas:Do you need anything right now?
I know it's currently the middle of the day, but after I left the roof of her loft yesterday, I couldn't help but miss her. She had agreed to our proposal and I'm going to be fighting hard for the next 6 months. I need to show her I'm the one for her. I need her to see how much better I am for her.
Rose:I hate to say it, but I could use some company. It's too quiet and Hailey has classes all day today.
Lucas:Say no more. I'm on my way ;)
Rose:Thanks, Lucas
I grabbed my keys, almost running to my car. With everything that has been going on I have had little alone time with her and I miss my Rose. I am grateful she askedmeto come and not Leo. I may have driven a few too many miles over the speed limit as I made my way to her, not having been this excited in a while.
She opened her door, greeting me with a messy bun, black sweatpants and a baby blue shirt. She looked so cozy and cute. I wanted to pick her up, wrap her in a blanket, and hold her on the couch all day.
"Hello, my beautiful Rose." I smiled at her as I entered. She gave me a small smirk, amused by my antics.
"Thanks for coming. It was pretty quiet here, and it was unsettling. I'm not used to being alone," she admitted.
"I'll come over whenever you need me. All you have to do is send me a text," I assured her. "Doesn't matter at what time, either. I have a severe case of insomnia. My body doesn't get along with sleep."
"I'll bear it in mind." She nodded. "Do you wanna watch a movie with me? I was about to play a horror film, because I need some action right now more than wholesome Disney movies." Her movie choice caught me off guard for a second, but I quickly nodded my head.
"I'm down for whatever you'd like to do."
"Perfect. I'll go pop some popcorn, you go sit."
I grabbed a blanket from the little wooden ladder she used as a throw blanket holder before taking my spot on the couch. I heard her humming as she waited on the popcorn by the microwave. She tapped her fingers on the counter, making me realize we had a similar taste in music as I recognized the song.
"I like this song." I sang along with her humming, making her smile.
"It's one of my favorites from the band. Well, one of the slower favorites. I honestly like too many of their songs. Linkin Park is the best." Rose sounded almost giddy as she spoke about them.
"I second that statement." I loved learning something new about her. If only there could be a concert to go to, but with Chester Bennington dead, there's no way. It wouldn't be the same.
"What do you want to drink with your popcorn?"
"Anything is fine," I called back. She emerged from the kitchen with a tray of popcorn, drinks, and a few assorted candies. I saw my favorites amongst them, some hot tamales. I love cinnamon flavored things.
Rose started the movie, taking a seat directly beside me. I smiled, realizing she wanted contact with me. She could have sat at the other end of the couch, but she sat close enough that our thighs were touching. She pulled her legs in, placing the popcorn bucket in her lap, and started the movie.
Rose would jump sometimes, but never scream. She somehow never spilled the popcorn either. I had grabbed her legs part way through the movie, placing them over my lap. My hands gently massaged her calves as she laid back on the couch with her head propped up by a cushion. I felt her look at me a few times throughout the movie. I had done the same, watching her when I could.
"You're cute when you jump," I teased her as the credits rolled through the screen. She threw the pillow at me from under her head. I caught it chuckling. She immediately sat up, straddling my lap. She grabbed my wrists, placing them above my head. I was curious what she was planning to do, so I let her do what she wanted without a fight. Her lust filled eyes landed on my lips, watching as I licked them.
"What are you doing, Rose?"
"Taking what I want, if that's okay?" She bit her lip, a little embarrassed by her words, but sticking to them.
"More than okay." I nodded.
Her hands were still on my wrists, above my head, as she leaned down. She pressed those rosy red lips against mine in a frenzy. She was hot and demanding as she kissed me. This passion was new to her. I quite enjoyed it as she sucked on my lower lip. I groaned, pushing my pelvis towards her center more. She swayed her hips on me, grinding against my very prominent erection now. She was clearly wanting more, but I was letting her take charge. Everything will be at her pace.
"Lucas?" She called my name, stopping for a second to look me deeply in the eyes. She was so vulnerable right now.
