I'll meet you there

After breakfast Rome and I decided to go for a walk through a close trail. We walked and talked, but his words still rang in my head.

"His names sounds so familiar,"

What did he mean by it? It was so confusing. They never went to the same school and Blaze wasn't even alive. It all just didn't make sense.

I shake my head from the thought and catch up to Rome who I guess walked on as I stopped.

"You alright?" he asks as soon as I reach him we starting moving again.

"Yes, I was just looking at the scenery. It's so beautiful," I lie. Although the view was stunning, that wasn't what I was paying attention too.

"I have a concert coming up in two weeks. Would you like to come?" He asked finally breaking the silence between us.

"Sure that sounds great," I smile.

"Then it's a plan. It was great spending time with you Suede," he says as we get close to the end of the trail.

"Yes I really enjoyed it," we both step closer towards each other, our noses almost touching. Then he gives me a soft quick kiss.

{}{}{}{}

Let's just say when I got into my car and started driving away, I cranked the music up louder, pulled my hair out of the neat bun and danced to the radio while I was waiting for the light to green. I was in my happy place. Rome Calborn had kissed me, even though it lasted about a mila-second it was fucking great! I was so excited that I called Cat to explain the news.

"Cat, hey it's me Suede!" I say as I hear her on the other line.

"Hey Suede what's up," she grumbles. Did I call at the wrong time?

"What's wrong Cat. Is everything alright," I ask suddenly more concerned about my friend then my relationship status.

"If you say feeling like you were just stabbed in the back with 50 knifes is fantastic. I'm feeling great," her voice is dripping sarcasm.

"Spill," I respond as I'm walking up the empty stairs to my dorm room.

"You know how Payton and I left early. Well it wasn't because I was sick. Well actually I did feel sick when I arrived home, but not the point. It was because Payton and I got in a fight," I hear her sniff back tears as she pauses for a moment," he got really upset with me and told me we were done, and we needed to figure out. And the stupid piece of shit I am was drunk at the time so I can't even remember what I did to piss him off. Suede, I don't know what to do," and that's when she breaks down and the sniffles turn into sobs.

"Oh Cat I would say that I'd come over and bring you over a coffee. But I can't," I fumble with my keys as I try to open the door to my dorm. It doesn't work.

I defiantly need to get a new pair of keys.

I knock on the door to see if Frances is inside. Nobody answers.

"Well Cat I'm stuck in a dilemma at the moment I'm gonna have to call you back,"then I hang up on my crying best friend, because I'm just so sweet and comforting. Then I turn towards the door and start knocking again, but there is still no answer. "Frances if you are in there and your just ignoring me I swear I'll pound your-" I'm cut of as the door creaks open and I see the face of Mitch. Who lets just say isn't the nicest man you've ever met. "Ass," I grit my teeth as I finish my sentence, hoping that I wasn't the one about to be pounded.

"Hey Mitch. Whatcha doing here," I nervously say breaking the silence, as I push my way by him entering the room. It was freezing, my teeth chattering as I place my purse on my bed. "Holy mother of pearl its cold in here." I walk over to the thermostat to crank up the heat. "So where's Frances?" I ask. He hasn't said a word to me yet. Then I realize he's glaring at me, and as I look closer at him he's dripping wet, with a towel wrapped around his waist. That's when the sound of running water plays in and that's when it all comes together like a puzzle.
