Attention

Rosie's POV

I got to school and, true to my promise, I put my hair up in a ponytail. The purplish hickey was pretty noticeable, but not too noticeable. My friends noticed almost instantly.

"Who is the lucky guy?" Hannah said, elbowing me in the side playfully.

"His name is Dallas." I said, sighing blissfully.

"She's in love." Zoe exclaimed.

I almost denied it but I thought about it, was I in love with Dallas Winston?

"I don't know." I say honestly.

"Well, we will be behind you in whatever you do." Hannah pledges.

"I need to tell you something about Dally." I say, looking down at the ground.

They follow me to the bathroom, where I make sure there isn't anybody.

"He's my familys butler." I admit.

The gaped at me.

"If your dad found out-" Hannah started

"NO! He can't find out!" I exclaim

"Why?" Zoe wonders

"Dally was starving on the streets, I won't let him go back. " I vow solemnly

They look at me

"You need to be careful, especially because of your brother."  Zoe warned.

"Step brother." I correct.

No, Bob wasn't my real brother, and everyday I thank providence for that. Bob was an atrocious bully and he liked to pick on people who maybe weren't as rich as us.

"Yeah well if your step brother tells your dad, your screwed." Hannah said.

"I know, but I can't not be with him." I exclaim in slight frustration of the circumstances.

"Rosie, we're supporting you in whatever you decide to do. " Zoe says.

"Thanks guys y'all are the best."  

"Do you think your dad will pick you up early?" Hannah enquires.

"No but he's out on business. " I grin.

Suddenly, the loud speaker came alive and said "Rosie Cullen, Please come to attendance for dismissal. " It rasped out.

"See ya." I say grinning as I grab my bookbag and running up there to see Dally.

I signed myself out and walked out with him till we were in the car.

"Hey." I say grinning.

"Hey baby." He said grinning back.

I lean over and kiss him hard on the lips, he responds immediately, wrapping his arms around my waist, kissing me back with love and passion.

"I missed you." I gasp against his lips.

"Mmm, I missed you too." He said, moving his lips to place light kisses to my neck.

"So what story are we going with?" I ask, gasping when he hit a certain spot.

"That you called the house with the nurses phone and said that you had threw up and I came to get you." He said, nonchalantly. If I hadn't known the truth, I would have believed him. His expression was blank, a perfect poker face.

"Your an awful good liar." I say in an awed tone.

"Years of practice." He says, proud of his skills.

"So are we going home?" I ask , playing with his hair.

"Nah, lets go to a movie. " He said, grinning recklessly. I kiss him again, I just can't help it, he's irresistible.
