Rose woke up the next morning tangled up in the blankets with Jake. She couldn't help the smile that adorned her face even though she had practically pushed Jake off the bed and he was now hanging halfway off of it.

The blonde rolled over and used all the strength she could find in her morning haze and pulled Jake farther on the bed before curling into his side and pressing a soft kiss to his shoulder.

"Rose?" Brooke called from the other side of the door.

Rose quickly got out of bed and ran to her door. "What?" She asked stepping out into the hallway.

"I know Jake's in there. He went for a snack last night and we ran into each other." Brooke crossed her arms over her chest. "I've never seen him that happy after "hanging out" with a girl. Even his ex-girlfriends. You really are something special to him."

Rose felt her cheeks heat and she could tell from the smirk on Brooke's face that she was blushing.

"Anyway, I came up here to tell you that you have a visitor. And even though I told him to go away and that you were sleeping, he won't leave." The smaller of the two blondes rolled her eyes.

"Who is it?" Rose inquired raising an eyebrow.

Brooke sighed. "It's your father."

"What does that asshole want?" Jake asked startling the two blondes. "Sorry, but he left you and anyone who ever hurts you or leaves you is stupid because you are too amazing to be left behind." He wrapped his arms around her waist. "And I'm not just saying that because of the sex."

"Ew." Brooke fake gagged.

"I love you both." Rose smiled wrapping her arms around both of them.

"Do you want us to go down there with you?" Jake questioned gently squeezing Rose's shoulder.

"I'll be fine. Just stay close." She ordered walking towards the stairs. "And if you hear me yelling, come running."

"Will do." Jake gave her a small wave.

"We're gonna have to sit on the stairs. Know her dad he'll say something stupid." Brooke remarked before walking halfway down the stairs and sitting down.

Jake nodded and followed the small blonde.

"What are you doing here?" Rose questioned walking into the living room where she instantly spotted the back of her father's head.

"Melrose." He smiled turning to face his only child.

Rose looked away from her father and took a deep breath before locking eyes with him. "It's Rose."

"Right, sorry." He stepped forward only to stop in his tracks when Rose took a step back.

"What are you doing here?" She asked again.

"My boss sent me and my partner here to investigate the murders. I got here immediately." He explained.

"Well, you go on and do your investigation and then go back to your home," Rose replied then turned to leave.
