ROSE

I can't find my words anymore.

This is weirdly unexpected.

I can't believe it!

"Mr.....Mr Caesar?" I breathed, my heart pounding continuously fast as I stared at him.

He is looking at me.

I looked back at CJ.

He averted his eyes from me, walking away.

My heart and legs pushed me as I made steps to follow him.

"CJ...."

"Rose," Caesar called, holding my hand.

I snatched my hand from his hold.

"Don't touch me!" I yelled.

His face twitched.

"You are unbelievable," I said, looking at him with anger.

"Rose, listen...."

"No. I don't want to listen. Why would you do all this just to.....just to kiss me? What is wrong with you?!" I yelled, tears approaching my eyes.

"I know this is crazy, but that's how I feel about you. I am crazy about you, Rose," he said, looking at me with emotion.

I shook my head in disbelief.

"And you feel the same about me. I can tell that you do. You kissed me back," he defended.

"That's because I thought you were CJ!" I blurted.

His face twitched.

I stared at him while breathing hard.

"You have feelings for him, don't you?" He asked.

I looked away.

"Rose"

"Yes. I have uncontrollable feelings for him!" I blurted, my heart racing.

He stared at me with what I could call disappointment in his eyes.

"I hope with this information, you will leave me alone. I can't be with you. The last time was me being naive and stupid. You are old enough to be my dad. Don't you get it?!" I almost cried.

His face twitched.

"Just leave me alone," I said, walking away.

I saw Joey and Seline walking into the hallway through the party hall as I approached.

"Rosy," Joey called.

"Isn't that CJ's dad?" I heard Seline ask as I walked past them, heading towards the dancing crowd.

I heard Joey and Rose calling, but I didn't look back as I searched around for CJ.

He is the only person I want to see right now.

Call me the worst girl on earth. I don't care. I feel the need to explain to him.

I can't help it.

God, I can't find him anywhere.

Not long later, I saw him heading out of the school building.

"CJ!" I called out loudly, but was immediately reminded of the loud music.

I quickly followed him. Getting out of the building, I saw him walking across the road, heading towards his car.

"CJ!" I called.

He turned to me.

My heart raced faster.

I was about to speak, but the sound of a car caught my attention.
