Chapter 27: Chapter 27
Rosetta
It's like everything around me is spinning in a circular motion and my brain started to shrink. I have no idea what to do, what to say, or anything. Mr. Walker's truth scared me too much and now I understand why he was asking about them every time. It's because his past is connected with them, unfortunately. James, Beren, Walker... even Drake kept coming in my dreams and blaming me for everything. I know I'm not wrong and I know that I am innocent but Drake... He doesn't even want to listen to me and it sucks. Really, even Chris blaming me.
I opened my eyes slowly, "What the hell!" I'm in Chris's room. Since when it all happen? As far as I know, Chris told me that I need to come with Snow's and then I'm here, don't know how. Maybe they hypnotized me or I don't know. Anyway, I take a little freshness as I went downstairs but it was dark… not too dark but still dark. I slowly went to the outside of the sofa room. I saw Drake... swimming.
How someone can possibly swim in this thick foggy cold weather? It's so cold, especially outside and that weirdo is swimming.
He saw me as he got himself out of the swimming pool and grabbed a towel to dry him.
"How am I here?" I asked but no reply from him.
I asked again and he... a complete weirdo kid shook his head in front of me and all the water from his head fell on me.
"Drake!" you're making me wet… stop it."
He arched an eyebrow, "Did I?" He asked as he grabbed me by my arm as we both landed in the swimming pool again. He's an idiot, completely mad, and a weirdo. I looked at him as he smirked.
"Let's get a little wetter." He's unbelievable but right now that water is hitting my nerves. I start coughing.
"Now, you can get out of yourself." He said.
"I can't." My voice is drowning with me. Drake comes closer to me, "What happened?" He asked.
"I can't swim." He smirked, "you're joking!"
"No." Water is almost above me and I can barely see anything except this fog. He placed his hand on my back and helped me to swim.
"You really don't know how to swim?" I shook my head. Finally, we both came out of the swimming pool as we sat near it. I'm shivering very badly, "How do you manage yourself to stay alive in this damn cold water, especially in winter?" I asked as he smirked devilishly.
"I'm a devil!" Oh no, I start sneezing. Damn, this cannot happen to me.
Drake stood as he offered me his hand, I looked up at him, and then I took his hand. I tried to stand up but because of this slippery place, I slipped.
"Rose!" He called my name as he grabbed me from my back, I slowly opened my eyes and my heart started beating very fastly when I saw his... hot, soft and incredibly sexy body, broad chest and his strong arms. Right now I'm in his arms, my hands are on his chest and it drives me crazy.
I bite the inside of my lips, thousands of butterflies fluttering in my stomach. I looked at him, his beautiful hazel eyes, baby pink puffy lips, chocolate brown hair, and his small dark beard make him a complete teenage face.
He slowly let go of me as we both stood awkwardly and here I go again with my annoying sneeze.
"Let's go inside." He said as we both entered the warmest and most comfy place, he gave me a towel as he went to the kitchen. My sneezing didn't stop. I dried my hair as I sat near the fireplace.
My gaze was at the fireplace, and I saw a mug full of coffee slowly sliding closer to me. I looked at the cup then at Drake.
"Take it! It'll help you to survive." I took it as he sat in front of me staring at the fireplace. I remember I remember his behavior towards me… It was really so rude but right now… he's showing me his soft side again. It's not his fault but it's not mine either.
I took a small sip as I smiled. It really tastes so good. I checked my phone and I saw 4 missed calls from Walker. My phone was in silent mode.
I placed my mug on a table as I stood and was about to head out but Drake stopped me.
"Where are you going?" He asked.
"Drake! I have to go now, I don't know how I am here but I have to go now. I have my assignments to work on and tomorrow is the last date so I'm going." I headed outside before he could say anything and then I went straight to my dorm.
I sighed when I went inside my dorm. It's not because of that Walker it's because I want myself alone. I really need this… my own alone time.
I'm feeling a little comfortable because I'm alone here. I can't help but keep thinking about what just happened in previous days.
Drake's attitude towards me is so different and mean. I don't blame him. He lost his parents just because of Mr. Walker. He thinks that I betrayed him too.
I sighed as I lay down on my bed and stared at the rooftop. Oh crap! I almost forgot that I have to finish my assignments today.
I quickly rushed myself to grab my unfinished assignments and my books and then I started working.
I took a breath and let it out, finally, I finished it. It took me straight 2 hours to finish it and now I'm really hungry.
I went to the kitchen and cooked pasta with sausages. The rest of the day flies like a blur. Monday is here.
The same routine, Get up, take a shower got myself ready. I was about to head out but then I saw Ash... Behind me came from nowhere.
"Why the hell are you here?" I asked angrily.
Her glowing dark red eyes, devilish brutal face, and long girl with black shirt and jeans staring at me as I murdered her in a past life. "I said what the—"
I raised my voice but she cut me off as she cast a spell on me that I literally don't know and the next thing that I know is I'm feeling very dizzy, everything around me is starting to spin as I fall to the ground.
My eyes are shutting down, everything is now blurry and now it's dark.
Drake
I let her go because of her assignments but it was only for the first and last time. Now I'm going to bring her back to our mansion. Andrew, Chris, and I decided to micromanage her life from now on. Our revenge is still pending and Rose isn't telling me anything. I know she's lying but I know how to reveal the truth and the only way to do this is to force her again and again until she speaks the reality.
I grabbed my leather black jacket as I went to her dorm.
Standing in front of her dorm door with my glowing red eyes I clenched my hands into fists. Her dorm door is already opened, I saw random stuff on the floor and I know that stupid devil again did something to her.
Not only Rose but Ash is gonna pay for everything. I really don't know where she is and it's because she cast a spell... A spell of hiding the tracking. I went to the cafeteria then I called Ash.
"Hey, Ash!" I sighed, cursing under my breath.
"I want to talk, can we meet?" I asked softly she took a minute to answer but then she said yes. "Drake, what exactly do you want to talk about?"
I sighed, "About our relationship." Ash was excited when I mentioned our relationship. I'm waiting for her; I have no idea where Rose is. Ash can do anything to her even kill her.
"Drake!"
I wiped my thoughts as I turned around to see her.
I inch closer to her as I grabbed her neck with my strong hand.
"Dra—" Her voice got broken as she looked at me surprised.
"Where is she?" I asked and except telling me she smirked.
"Dead!" She said sarcastically while laughing,
My heart skips a beat when she mentions death.
I turned my eyes red as I started to hypnotize her. She's so stubborn she's never telling me the truth without force.
I took a step back, my hands are shaking and my throat is drying. I pointed my finger at Ash with hell swearing anger "If... If anything happened to her... I will kill you. I swear I will kill you."
I ran as fast as I could and stopped myself in front of... James house. I used my powers to break the door as I headed inside. I saw her... I saw Rose in a white dress. That Fu****g monster forcing her to marry him. A father I saw sitting in front of them and Rose kept denying him.
I pointed my palm at this father when I closed my palm his neck broke and he died instantly. James and Rose saw me as James took out his long big knife and pulled Rose closer to her.
"One move and I kill her." I stopped myself and then I smirked. I flipped my finger and he fell to the ground. I grabbed him from his collars and punched him. Fresh blood starts streaming down from his nose. He tried to fight back and so am I. I'm gonna kill him today.
We both started fighting. I punched harder on his face this time but he attacked me with a cold forged iron. I can't help but fall to the ground painfully. My eyes start to flicker.
"Drake!" Rose shouted my name but then she screamed. "Ros—" I can't talk right now but I looked behind me.
"No, no." This can't be happening to her. No. James daggered Rose. I saw a big long knife inside her stomach. Her white dress turns out into a bloody dress.
"Rose!" I shouted her name as I pulled myself up, my body was aching but I used all my powers. All the mirrors of this house shattered into millions of pieces. I moved my both hands towards him as all the shattered mirrors went straight inside him and he died too. He deserves to die.
Rose fell to the ground. "No, Rose!" I ran to her but then something pushed me away.
I slowly moved to her as I saw her wearing the Jesus sign locket. Damn, I can't touch her as long as she wore that.
I looked at her, she was dying. My heart is burning... Even though I know she's the daughter of my family's murderer but still, my feelings for her weren't fake. Seeing her in pain hurts me badly.
"Rose!" I whispered her name softly as she slowly looked up to see me. "Take off this locket." She shook her head.
"Rose!" I whispered.
"Just go, please. I don't want you to heal me. Go." She said, her voice shaking badly.
"What you talking about, I can't let you die here. Take it off." I said.
She shook her head again.
"Listen to me, don't... Do this... Okay. Don't. Let me heal you please Rose. Please." My wordings... Today my wordings are louder than my feelings for her. I'm seriously begging her right now.
"I don't want to live, I don't want this... All of this. I can't live any longer. Just go. Go!" She said as hurt hit her again.
I inhaled deeply; I know she is a stubborn baby girl trying to end her life. I won't let her. I won't.
I slowly moved closer to her. Every inch when I get closer to her my whole body starts burning and hurting worse than I expected. But I'm not letting her die... Never.
My heart starts aching... My whole body does but I'm not gonna give up. Not a chance.
Finally, I came closer to her as I snatched her locket with my shaky hand and threw it away. She's unconscious. She's bleeding very badly.
I placed my hand on her stomach and my own hand is covered in blood. I squeezed my eyes shut as I started to heal her. Today she's tried her best to end her life. But as long as I'm alive I will not gonna let you die.
