Justin's Pov

I sit opposite Rose inside of a frozen yogurt shop near my apartment, we sit in silence as I take another spoonful of the strawberry yogurt eating it slowly not looking up at Rose at any time. I can't believe she walked in on me and Camilla like that, she didn't mean to it's my own problem.

But it can't be that big of a deal I mean we aren't dating, nor were we getting together or do we have any feelings for each other like that. I look up at her briefly and she's staring down at her yogurt eating it slowly, I feel the need to explain to her what it was about.

"Rose, about what happened last night, look, we aren't a thing, and we aren't going to be a thing" I tell her putting down my spoon as she looks up at me smiling a little.

"Why are you doing this? You know that it's okay and you literally don't have to explain anything to me" she smiles putting a spoonful of frozen yogurt in her mouth. I sigh, why am I not settled by this even though she's completely fine with it.

"I know but, I don't have feelings for her or anything, she's actually kind of annoying, I just want you to know that.." I mutter playing with my yogurt with my spoon swirling it round the pot.

"Justin, chill out, why do you think I'm upset or something? We're just friends and you can have relations with anyone you want? Heck I'll even be your wing man!" Rose smirks at me winking before finishing off her yogurt.

"I don't really want anything to do with her like that anymore though" I whisper putting our yogurt pots into the bin before standing up. She follows me standing up herself and we head out of the yogurt shop.

"Well that's for you and her to discuss it's nothing to do with me, we're just friends remember" she smiles nudging me with her elbow and I smile down at her weakly. Just friends.

I don't know why that stung so much, but it did.

"So, where am I taking you today cause I seem to be your tour guide on this stay you're having" I smirk at her and she looks up at me sending me a cute goofy smile which makes my tummy flutter slightly. What the fuck was that.

"I was thinking today we could just go to a shop and rent a movie or something, get some popcorn and chill in your apartment" she shrugs looking at me suggestively at the idea. Actually I like the sound of that too to have a break from taking her everywhere for a while, I'm probably wearing her out.

"Yeah that sounds like fun, there's a little corner shop round here that sells a good selection of DVD's" I nod round the corner of the road we are just coming up to near my apartment building. "I'll get my assistant Mac to go and get some st- why are you looking at me like that?"

"Get your assistant to drop off movies and popcorn? Do you never go to the shop by yourself?" She asks me, smirking slightly.

"I guess...not?" I question myself, tilting my head to the side.

"Well come on. We're gonna walk to the shop ourselves like normal people and buy a movie" She says, dragging my arm down the sidewalk towards the corner shop.

We walk inside and I follow Rose over to the isle where the movies were.

"How about..the fault in our stars, that movie is the best!" Rose exclaims picking up the DVD examining it smiling brightly at the cover. I chuckle looking over her shoulder at, it looks shit but I'll get whatever she wants.
