The Real Me

Unleashing inner demons!

"His love roared louder than her demons..."

Rose's pov

"Mum, no I can't do this." I kept my feet on the sides of the car door, thrusting myself backwards—despite my huge dress.

"Rose, get out of the damn car!" She yelled, pulling my hand in an effort to get me to come out.

"Lets just go home, mum." I pleaded.I can't do this, I can't see Jay. I'm not ready.

"Rose, are you really scared? Is Rosetta Carlson, the strongest and most bravest person in the world, going to give up?" She said trying to encourage me.

"Yes." I deadpanned after thinking for a minute.She groaned in annoyance.

"I didn't raise you to be a cowered. Now get out of the fucking car right this instance!" She ordered, grabbing my feet this time and finally succeeding on pulling me out of the vehicle.

"Mum..." I whined as I landed on my bottom.I got up holding the open car door and rubbed my behind, wincing at the slight pain.

"Nope, Rose, I worked too hard for this.You are going in that hall right now and getting your guy."She grabbed the back of my shoulders and pushed me towards the entrance.I stumbled a little bit on my 5 inch heels.I hate these stupid shoes.

She strided towards the otherside of the car and slipped back in the driver seat, starting the engine.She started to drive away slowly, leaving me alone in the school parking lot but not before yelling out "Use protection!"

I shook my head in embarrassment and took a deep breath.You can do this Rose.Its just Jay.I started taking small steps towards the gym hall.My hands sweaty.Never have I ever felt this nervous in my entire life.

After about what seemed like hours I finally reached the entrance door.The school guards opened them, music bursted through them.I walked inside to see everyone either talking or dancing.

I grabbed my dress with one hand and lifted it slightly so that it wouldn't get caught under my heels while the other was gripping the railing tightly.

Step by step Rose.Focus on walking.Don't make a fool of yourself.I repeated inside my head.
The faint sound of my heels clicking against the ground.

This is the part in Cinderella when she walks down the staircase and everyone's heads snap towards her.Yeah that really doesn't happen.I reached the last step and breathed out in relief.

I looked around trying to find Jay but it's hard to find a guy in a suit when every other guy is wearing the same black suit.

I was too busy looking for him that I didn't even notice Brittany and Whitney standing infront of me—Maria's minions.

"Oh look what the cat dragged in."One of the twins sneered.My eyes jerked towards them to see them giving me a look of distaste.Both were wearing similar kind of dresses just in different colours.One was wearing green while the other was in blue.I raised my eyebrow.

"Look Brittnay-"

"Its Whitney!" She glared at me.I rolled my eyes.

"Does it look like I care? Now get out of my way, my date's waiting for me."I tried pushing past them but they just blocked my way.

"You have a date?" The other twin—Brittany I presume, scoffed in disbelief.

"Yes my date.Were you born this stupid or are you just trying to piss me off?"I asked in irritation.

"Well sorry to burst your bubble princess, but your date seems to be enjoying Maria's company more than waiting for some ugly girl to show up." They both looked at each other before a smirk broke on their lipstick covered lips.
