Roses aren't always Red

Enemies??

[AN] Sorry it's been longer of a wait than usual. Just got out of school and been doing family shtuffs. Enjoy the chapter (:

Casey and I walk into the mess hall to find everyone staring at us. The entire room gets silent and I glance and Casey. She looks at me just as confused as I feel. We just keep walking and get ourselves some food acting like nothing was wrong.

"What the hell happened?" I hiss to Casey through clenched teeth. She shrugs at me.

"I'm guessing it was that bitch who saw us earlier. I'm not sure but I get the vibe that that girl equals trouble," she says barely above a whisper. People have begun to go back to their conversations but many people are still glancing over at us, almost as though scared. We sit down at our usual table with Rose.

"Rose, why does everyone here look like they think we're about to jump them?" Casey asks bluntly.

"Casey. Ari. You two might want to get out of here," Rose says sounding a little panicked when we sit down beside her. I glance behind her to see Megan Ross standing there. Megan puts a hand on Rose's shoulder and smiles at us. Rose is really tense and I see Casey ball her fists ready to step in.

"Aw, babe. Don't send them away. They are welcome to stay," Megan says smirking. Rose cringes when she says babe.

"Babe?" Me and Casey both say at the same time looking at Rose for an answer.

"She's my girlfriend. Or didn't you know? Some friends you two are," Megan sneers. Rose looks like she wants to say something but she gets a glare from Megan. Casey rolls her eyes and stands up. I look at her.

"CC cmon. Don't bother with them. Let's go," I say standing up giving her a look of warning. She blows a strand of hair out of her face and sighs giving Rose a glare. Rose looks down and doesn't say anything.

"See you two around," Megan says sounding like she really will be. I have to half drag Casey out so she doesn't jump on her. We stay silent until we get to our room. When we get there Casey shoves me off frustrated and punches the door in anger. I back up knowing by now not to get into her way.

"C-Casey baby. Cmon. Calm down," I say after waiting a little while. I touch her back gently keeping a safe distance. She slowly turns around and looks at me. I shuffle my feet nervously and suddenly I feel something collide with my body and I stumble backward.

I am pushed up against the wall. It takes me a while to realize Casey is hugging me. I wrap my arms around her holding her close. We stay in each other's embrace for a long time feeling safe from everything outside of the walls in the room.

Rose's POV

"What do you want Megan?" I ask seeing the dark haired girl walk up to my table.

"Just a little deal, sweetheart. Care to hear me out?" She says sitting down across from me. I know she is up to something, she always is.

"What is it?" I ask glaring at her. She slides her phone over to me showing pictures of Casey and Ari kissing. This must have just happened I realize. I look at her and shrug.

"So? What do you want?" I ask confused as to why she is showing these to me.

"Well, I have a problem with the new girl. She is too cocky for her own good. And you my dear, are going to help me out with a plan I have," she says smirking.

"No way in hell Megan. I'm not helping you, get lost," I say trying to sound confident, but I think my voice shook.

"You know what I'll do if you don't, right?" She says staring at me intensely.
