NYU Rose

Chapter Twenty Five - One Up

No more distractions back to school full time. I came out of the shower and was heading into the bedroom.

"Oh god!" I jumped and turned Nate was sitting at the island

"Seriously, why does no one give me a warning. Dan!"

"I'm sorry, just you were having so much fun singing in the shower, I didn't want to interrupt." he shrugged

"Fuck you, ass." I headed into the bedroom and got ready for the day. When I came back out Nate was still there.

"I think we should move into the Brownstone at least there is levels and I'm not walking semi naked in front of visitors. What are you even doing here, I thought you had a class." I huff making some toast.

"I thought we said it was too soon?" Dan wondered

"Dan this isn't the first time someone other than you has seen me they shouldn't have. I would like to get out of the shower and make some food with a little warning."

"We'll talk about it later, you have class to get to." I looked at my watch

"shit." I gave him a quick kiss

"Bye!" I run off

-------------------------

"So I wanted to ask your opinion on something." Dan stated as we met up after class and was heading for coffee

"Okay."

"I was thinking of applying to the playwriting program next year." I stopped him

"That is amazing you should totally do it."

"Yeah, but I'd have to write a play by this Christmas break." he told me apprehensively.

"I will help you with anything you need. You need to do this, writing is your passion and this is so you." I encouraged him

"I would love that. Vanessa and I are gonna see Morrissey at the Bowery. It's a tradition. That's okay right."

"Of course it is, why wouldn't it be? Come on let's get coffee."

---------------------------------------

We walked into the cafe where Blair was talking with the man from Tisch.

"Rose Bass." I turned around

"That's me, yes."

"Paul Haffman, we met Miley together Backstage a year ago." he held out his hand

"Oh, hello again." I shook his hand in greeting.

"I heard you were doing a Journalism course here, and you're on the Newspaper." he began to make conversation.

"I am, oh this is my boyfriend Dan, he's hoping to apply to the program." the two shook hands

"nice to meet you. I was hoping you would cover the cabaret, I've read your work, it's impressive. Olivia Burke will also be joining us"

"Oh i can't. I have a restraining order against her, and she can't be near me." He thought about it

"I will call her and revoke the invite but please tell me you'll cover the story." he pleaded. Wait did I just get another upper hand on Olivia Jerk. Huh weird sensation.

"Thank you, I would be honoured."

"Did you just say your having a cabaret." Dan wondered

"Yes, would you like to join us, we're meeting here tonight." Paul informed him. I was about to say something when Dan beat me too it.

"Of course, what time?"

"We meet back here in a hour and the show it tonight." we were told

"Okay, see you later." Paul left and I turned to him "I know what you're gonna say but this is my chance. i will call Vanessa and I'm sure she will understand."

"Uh, okay"
