Cherry {REWRITE}

CHAPTER I

"No, please?" Daphne Klugger was led on her bed, in her very modern apartment in New York, beggin Rose Weil, one last time if she could stay just one more night. "And then what?" Rose asked with a sweet smile on her face. They had been dating for just under two months now. They were still in that "can't keep their hands off of each other" phase. Yet they had had a couple of serious moments, but during both moments, they had learned to feel comfortable in each other's company. Sometimes Rose would surprise Daphne by being confident, seducing and jealous. Vice versa with Daphne, who would be sentimental, caring and also jealous. "Fine" Daphne reacted like a teenager who hadn't been granted permission. But Rose didn't seem to mind, she enjoyed the fact that she was wanted, to be wanted by Daphne was the cherry on top of the very beautiful cake. Rose's smile got even bigger "But I promise another playdate soon, Chérie". Their stare never breaking, penetrating so deeply they couldn't see anything but each other. Daphne crawled to the foot of the bed. Her stare reached Rose even deeper, making her shiver. Balancing herself on the mattress, she slowly wrapped her arms around the most beautiful woman she'd ever seen. Rose became slightly light-headed at the touch. She parted her lips, as if not enough air was passing through her nostril. She could no longer control her breathing, it had become an impossible task. The fact that she knew what Daphne was intending to do, didn't help the situation. Pending there a few moments, Daphne took that time to embrace the moment. She leaned in slowly and carefully making sure to remain elegante and not fall off of the mattress. Rose's eyes closed, leaving her senses to guide her through her passion. Their lips met, and Rose was melting as fast as an icecream in the sun on the hottest day of the year. Out of lack of breath, Daphne pulled away. Rose was a pretty shade of red. Daphne didn't know whether it was due to lack of breath or pure lust but either way, she liked seeing Rose in that state. Rose slowly opened her eyes while catching her breath. To not moan while kissing Daphne also seemed impossible to her. She seemed to have many weaknesses when it came to Daphne. Although this kiss, Rose knew it was Daphne letting her know what she was missing by leaving her. "Go on, get lost then!" Daphne said with a hint of glee. "Right..." Replied the little Irish blonde, all disorientated, she slowly picked up her bags and steadily turned towards the door. "Damn I'm gonna miss that arse!" Daphne smirked from on the bed, Rose turned round to reveal that her cheeks were even more blushed than after the kiss. Rose opened the door and turned around to see Daphne one last time before she had to leave, winked "Passe une bonne soirée, ma Chérie" Have a good evening, my darling. And just like, she was gone. Daphne, out of proudness was still smirking on the bed "She won't be forgetting that one in a hurry...". Her head hit the pillow, she turned on her side and hugged Rose's pillow, and took a deep breath in.

That had been nearly two weeks ago. Daphne hadn't heard a peep from her since. Rose hadn't been replying to her calls, text nor her emails. Daphne didn't worry when she didn't reply to the first couple of texts, Rose had a bad habit of reading notifications then forgetting to reply. Daphne had even risked calling her work. They had only recently started dating, although that term was loosely used as they both decided to keep it between themselves. They didn't want the press to be aware of anything, they liked the discretion, Rose appreciated the non-judgement, even though she felt amazing when she was around Daphne, she was a little scared of the press's reaction. The world's eyes, judging her and being involved in their lives a hundred times more than before. Daphne didn't mind as much, she enjoys being the center of attention. Although, the idea of not sharing Rose with the world seemed too good to be true.
Daphne's last option was to call one of the girls to find out if any of them had heard from her. Lou answered her phone with a joyful "Hidey-ho!",

-Who are you calling a hoe?

- You okay? She replied, the sound of her smile was echoing through the phone.

- Yeah, nothing serious, I was just trying to get in touch with Rose, you haven't spoken to her recently have you?

- You were looking for Rose, eh? How cute...

-What?

Daphne heard giggling from the other end of the line. After the heist, the girls had been teasing at how Rose and Daphne got on so well, how they seemed to be so compatible even though they were completely the opposites.

- Have you tried her appartement ?

-Yes.

- Her work?

- Yes.

- Her parents?

- Huh? No... She never said that her parents lived around here...

- They don't... They're in Ireland, when we looked her up we found out she goes there every Christmas...

- Oh... Do you know where? Or have a phone number?

- Must be important then...

- Kind of yeah...

- Don't need to worry though, I'm sure it's an innocent vacation, when she was here she only had eyes for your arse...

- I'm going now, when I get back, I'll whip your tushy all the way back to Australia.

- Is that what you did with Rose?

- Bye, Lou.

Daphne hung up, she couldn't keep q straight face with Lou's giggling like a child. It did make Daphne wonder if they were discreet with Rose, if Lou had seen something between them, who else could have?

Daphne had made herself a cup of coffee, and sat on her couch with her tablet. She never normally had days off but since Rose came into her life, she couldn't resist taking a bit of time off to spend it all with her. She never used to make meals or even drinks, she ordered every thing via her assistant, and yet she now has a fridge with food in, other that takeaways. She typed the password on her tablet and started searching on safari addresses for "Weil". She nearly had a panic attack when she saw all the addresses that came up. She decided to text Lou and see whether she knew where approximately her parents were from... "Rose said they were somewhere called Kinsale? Kingsale? Kingale? I'm not sure..." Daphne spent another half an hour looking up the names Lou had given her and then wrote down the addresses. She didn't actually know what she was going to do with these addresses...

Was she actually thinking about traveling all the way over there?
