Little Rose

♡Fourteen♡

Rose's POV

I instantly broke down. Screaming, crying, shaking, and my breathing quickens.

Loud footsteps race to the bathroom and Victoria and Alex open the door to see me broken on the floor. I could hear Alex trying to talk to me on the phone.

"Rose what's wrong?" Victoria says in a panic. They kneel by me and rub my back. "No! Don't touch me!" I yell. They back away and Alex grabs the phone.

"I'm calling Andre."
---------

Ten minutes pass and Andre burst into the bathroom. He looks at me wide eyed and a very concerned expression.

"Rose?" His voice cracks.

I continue to bawl on the floor while holding myself.

"Babygirl please... tell me what's wrong." I can hear the hurt in his voice. He crouched down to my level. I try to control my breathing and sit up.

"D-Daddy... They're dead." When those words leave my mouth, I break down again but this time in his arms. He's stiff at first but then wraps his arms around my small frame tightly.

"I called my friend... he told me what happened to them."

Andre's POV

This is not good.

No shit Sherlock.

I was planning on telling her today. I didn't want her to be alone when she found out. I was honestly scared how she would react.

But at least she knows now. The worse part is seeing her in so much pain.

I look down at her and continue to hold her. I'm not sure what to at the moment. I'll take her home and call my brothers to see what they have to say.
------------

On the way home, she cried herself to sleep. I carried her and put her to bed.

I sit down in the living room and hang my head. Millions of thoughts run through my head. I get a headache just thinking about what ifs.

The elevator opens and out comes Micah and Leo. They look around in panic.

"Where is she? Is she still here?" Leo says frantically.

"She's upstairs sleeping." I reassure him. He lets out a sigh of relief and joins me on the couch.

"What exactly happened?" Micah says as he sits.

"Victoria said she called someone in the bathroom and they heard her screaming and crying. When I got there, she told me her friend told her."

The room is silent. I can tell they're thinking the same thing as me. What are we going to do? Is she okay? Will she want to go back?

"Well.... now what?" Micah says.

"We wait. We wait until she's ready to talk. I can't imagine what it's like for her right now. The best we can do for now is be there for her. Try not to ask too many questions or hover over her all the time." Leo says. He usually has all the answers for us. He was the brains out of the three of us. When he didn't have any answers, we would be lost.

"Sounds good." I say. "I'll start dinner." Leo says getting up and walking to the kitchen.

"I guess I'll just read." Micah says. He gets up and goes downstairs to Leo's study. I turn on the TV and Zombieland is playing. I'm too sad to laugh at the funny parts.

I was too into the movie to notice Rose walk by and into the kitchen. Her face was puffy and red from crying and her hair was a tangled mess. Seeing her like this is punishment enough for not telling her sooner.

She walks past us and grabs a water bottle out of the fridge and goes back upstairs.

"I hate seeing her like this. I have to do something!" I tell Leo.

"I know. I do too. We'll try to talk to her at dinner."
------------

Leo's POV

I finished dinner and went upstairs to get Rose. I stood outside her door and knocked.

"Princess? It's time for dinner."

I don't hear anything and from looking at the crack at the bottom of the door, the lights are off. I press my ear against it and can hear the sound of music.

"I'm coming in, okay?" I slowly open the door. The light from the hall shines on her bed. Her back is facing me and she's covered in blankets.

The speaker next to her bed plays a rather sad song. I believe it's Harry Styles.

"Are you awake?"

"Yea..."

"Do you want to join us for dinner? I made your favorite. Roast beef with carrots and potatoes."

"Do I have to?" She croaks.

"Not if you don't want to but it would be a wise choice to eat something." I place my hand on her shoulder.

She turns over to face me. Her face is wet with tears and her nose is red. Those beautiful blue eyes are filled with sadness that I want to take away.

"I want to go back home. I need to be close to them." Rose starts crying again and I pull her in and hold her. "Can I please go back home? I'll come back when I'm ready but.... I need to go."

I think for a second and nod. "Of course princess."

"Thank you Daddy. I can always count on you guys."

What do you think will happen when she goes back? Do you think she'll stay there for good?

Let me know!

Byee!
