Luke's POV :
31st December. Last day of 2011. And this year gifted me someone really precious, my beautiful Rose.

She was the most amazing person I've ever met. She has the heart of the gold. As pure and clear as a crystal. She's really not like the girls who have crossed my way previously. She's so different, so original. When she smiles, it's all genuine. She always expresses her true feelings. From the depth of her till her outer shell, she's one and pure. There is nothing fake or unreal about her personality. She is wierd, crazy, shy and she's proud to be the way she is. That is the best thing about her.
I understand how it is for her to lie to her family about me. She doesn't want to hide it but she's forced to. She doesn't want to hurt them. Maybe one day, she'll find her way through it. I want to be with her through all her bad times but if she breaks her walls and let me in. I knew that there was something about her which I was unaware of. And I wanted to know that in any way.

Me and Rosie had planned to meet up in a restaurant near my place on 1st January 2012. First day of the new year. I had to go there with one of my friend Aaron and Rosie had to come with Zhenya and Ammy. I just hoped everything would go well.

Rosie's POV :

1st January 2012. First day of the new year. I was so feverish to meet Luke. Last night at 12, he was the first one to wish me the new year. I painted my nails red before going to bed and washed my hair too. I ironed my clothes the day before and told my mom that it was just a mini new year celebration at Ammy's place.

Zhenya reached my place by 11. We had to leave by 1 in the noon. I wore my clothes which was a long length shirt with black coat with jeans and my boots. I just applied mascara and lipstick and rushed outside in my garage calling out my mum to leave immediately as we were running out of time, it was 1:15pm already.
Mum dropped me and Zhenya at Ammy's place by 1:30pm as Ammy didn't live that far away from our place.
Before I got out of the car, my mom stopped me.
"Rose! Can I trust you?"
My heart dropped and suddenly I began feeling sick. I turned pale and shivers began running down my body. All I thought at that moment was that I was going to give my mother a major heartbreak, very soon. Lieing to her felt so awful.
"Yes mother." I conveyed and got off the car. I had no strength to look at her innocent face after that.
She trusted me so much and all I did was, break it.

We entered Ammy's place and suddenly her elder sister Bia began following us until we reached Ammy's room.
Ammy aggressively asked Bia what she was upto and all she said was,
"Why are you guys so scared if you're not up to something wrong?"
We tried to act as normal as we could and remaid calm infront of her.
Luke called on my cell phone to let me know that he was about to reach so we were obliged to leave right away.
But Bia.

We reached the garrage after 5 minutes. We told Ammy's mother that we had to go out for lunch in a café nearby for our mini new year's celebration so she agreed on dropping us over there for an hour. Bia insisted on accompanying us on the way.
As we reached there and the car stopped in the parking lot, Bia the detective spoke up.
"I wanna go in there with you guys. I have to buy myself a burger. Mom you wait right here. I'll be back." She ordered and accompanied us till the table.
We grabbed a table outside the café near the lawn area.

"Now order your burger and go away." Ammy angrily conveyed to her sister.
"Which boys are coming here to meet you girls up? Tell me the whole effing thing or I'm calling mum here, Ammy!"
She said being so hyper. I was shocked to hear her say that.
"What? Which boys? What are you talking about Bia?"
I attempted to act innocent which was an epic fail.
"Rose. You're innocent. You don't know how to lie." She grinned.
I argued with her to try to prove ourselves innocent but the stupid me made my mouth blurt these words out.
"Okay. I'll introduce you to these guys. But you promise you won't tell my mother?"
"I knew that. I saw them coming in. It's that guy Luke, Ammy told me about him when you guys were together in middle school. Well, let's go in." She conveyed with calmness in her tone. I thanked God.
As we entered the café, Luke and Aaron were seated on the last tables on the room.
"So there you are. Luke. Nice to meet you" Bia said moving her hand forward towards Luke.
He gave no response and stood blank. I loved his expressions.
And the bossy Bia began.
"If you tried to misuse my sisters, or lead them to something wrong, I'm going to kill you dude."
He just shook his and head and remained silent. I knew he was ferocious but he remained silent, because of me.
Bia only said those words and left, giving me a loathing glare.
As she left, I felt so relieved.
"I'm so sorry guys it's all my fault." Ammy apologised. She was actually embarrassed for her sister's rude behaviour.
"Let's just get over the bad and sit down to have some good time guys. We ordered pizza, they must be bringing it. Just be calm." Luke said with his lovely smile.
Seeing him made me so exuberant. On the table, I was sitting on the opposite end of where Luke was sitting. Aaron was next to him and I was in the middle of Ammy and Zhenya. Everyone began interacting. Most of the times Ammy, Aaron and Zhenya were talking. Me and Luke remained silent, just staring into each other's eyes.
Pizza was placed on our table. Everyone began grabbing their slices except me. I didn't know how to do that. Last time when I met Luke, he was the one who gave me pizza.
"Luke, why don't you help your girl out?" Zhenya chuckled.
"Why not?" He being the sweetest guy on earth, gave me two slices of pizza so I don't have to be in trouble asking for the second one later on. How did he come to know me so well in such little time? I wondered.
This made me blush so hard.
"Hey look, Rosie's turning into a tomato!" Ammy joked and everybody except Luke laughed. I felt so nervous and lifted my eyes up to see Luke and he was already staring with a smile on his face.
"Hey Luke. Why don't you confess your love infront of everyone dude? It'll be fun." Aaron suggested.
"I love you Rose." He blurted looking straight at me. He was loud.
Everyone looked at him in shock. And I tuned into a red, ripened tomato.
"Wow Rosie. He loves you." Ammy joked again.
"Shut up guys." I smiled. One thing was for sure, Luke was not afraid to show me up to the world. He was proud to have me as his girl.

It was a day well spent. On our way back to Ammy's place, Bia gave us death glared. She loathed me and Zhenya a lot after all this. I reached home by 5pm.
'Luke, I love you' I wrote in my diary as soon as I reached my place, inside my room.

Luke's POV :

Seeing Rosie gave me inner peace. My feelings for her were so deep that I had no idea how to express them to her.
As I arrived home, mum was waiting for me.
"Where were you Luke? Just be honest!"
"Mum, I just entered. Aren't you supposed to ask me how my day was?" I exhaustively conveyed.
"I'm your mother. I know what am I supposed to do. And your day must've been great, meeting your girlfriend after a long time always feels good." She said annoyingly. I was nauseated to hear that.
"Who on earth told you this?" I shouted.
"Stop shouting on me Luke. Now you see what I'll do." She ferociously walked inside her room and slammed the door.
I just didn't want her to hurt Rosie.
I was so upset. But I didn't tell this to her, I didn't want to make her upset too. I went upstairs in my room and unbolted my phone.
Rosie texted;
"Thankyou baby. It was pleasure meeting you today. I love you."
This girl was turning out be my ultimate need. She always gave her everything to keep me happy. She never let me know about the troubles and problems she faced because of me and that was what inspired me. She was just an all in one kind of person for me. She was like an angel who would do anything to comfort me.

Imagining my life without her was impossible now, but being with her didn't seem possible too. I just didn't want her to get hurt.

Obstacles are increasing but so is Luke's love for Rosie. Their personal attachment is opposed by every other person who is coming to know about their relationship. What will be the next step of Luke's mother?
