Next Day
Rosalie's Point of View
I wake up in Daniel's arms. I look up at him and he is soundly asleep. He looks so peaceful.
I sigh. My Louie is not here anymore. I slowly get out of Daniel's grip, sit, and stretch my arms. I look over the corner and see Louie's things. I feel so sad.
"Morning," Daniel kisses my cheek. I turn to him. "You shouldn't have stayed."
He smiles. "You neesed someone. I am your friend remember?"
"We kissed so we aren't only friends,"
"Rosalie, please, just forget it," he sighs, "how about you take a good shower and I will clean up your room."
He means to throw out Louie's things. He is right. I can't do it myself.
"Just keep the things to donate," I say as I stand.
The shower makes me feel a bit better. I go into the kitchen to find Daniel cooking breakfast even if it is already going to be 10.
"I put a box of things to donate in my car," Daniel says, "I will go to the animal shelter to drop them off."
I nod. "Thank you."
He smiles. He is so handsome when he does. "No problem. Now sit young lady, I need to get some calories into you. You didn't eat much yesterday."
I nod again and sit.

Monday: AugustShayla and I are eating lunch. It has been a hectic week but I am happy to be back to work.
"My mom might be coming for a weekend," I say.
"And you need it, so don't be bitch to her,"
"Hey! I haven't been mean to her,"
"You always think she will relapse Rose,"
My mom is an alcoholic ever since my dad died. Two years ago, I found her almost dead on the bathroom floor. She had an overdose that her body just shut down. Ever since, she has tried to be sober but fails. Though, Shayla might be right. My mom hasn't drank for 4 months now.
"I will be nice as long as she is nice too," I lightly smile.
Shayla giggles. "Good. Now, how about to talk about Mr. Daniel?"
I shake my head no. "Please, there is nothing."
"Rose, just give him a chance. It has been months now, you need to get over Luke. You and your body need someone to cuddle,"
I frown. I'll bet he has forgotten me already. He never tried to see me. I miss him. I worry about him mostly though. He needs help. I might just see him again but in a casket.
"Earth to Rose, your phone," Shayla says.
I answer it. "Yes?"
"Hey-hi," Daniel coughs. "Sorry, I had spicy chicken for lunch."
"Try to drink milk, it calms the spice,"
"What are you doing?"
I look at Shayla and she is applying her red lipstick. "With Shayla, gonna go back to work."
"Oh well, how about you put her on speaker,"
I press the speaker button and nudge Shayla. "Hey!"
Daniel chuckles, "hey Shayla, how is my favorite Japanese woman?"
"And half Russian! Remember I am your multi-race woman," Shayla loves to flirt with Daniel. I roll my eyes. "What did you want to say?"
"I want to invite both of you to a dinner party at my new place,"
"Cool, when is it?" Shayla asks.
"Tomorrow night,"
I nod. "Sure."
"Okay, I'll see you both tomorrow,"
Shayla giggles and makes a kiss sound. "Of course."
I hang up and look at her. "I don't understand why you flirt with him and then tell me I should be with him. Are you sure you don't wanna date Daniel?"
"Rose, you need him and I know you like him,"
I look down. "I do like him but I don't think-"
"Ah! That is it missy, you need to stop over thinking," Shayla takes my right hand. "Just enjoy yourself."
"Okay whatever, I do have something to say,"
"What?"
"I don't have anything to wear,"
"Oh sweetie, I have you covered."Luke's Point of View
Nayda is smiling at me. "And you are really sorry?"
I nod. "Yes."
She gives me my phone back. "Can you just tell her everything you told me now?"
"Nayda, I don't know if she even has the same number or lives in the same place,"
Rosalie has been out of my life for months now. It should be that way.
"Nathan confirmed it, don't be a scary cat,"
Nayda stands and refills her tea pot. She has been my friend ever since she kissed me. Of course, we haven't kissed at all but sometimes I want to. She is a beautiful woman. But I am happy she is just my friend.
"And how about rehab?" She comes back.
I frown. "Seriously?"
"Luke, I know that it is annoying for your father and I telling you this, but you need help," she sits back and takes my hands into hers. Her skin is soft and smooth.
"I haven't had a drink in a week, I have control," I answer.
"That's good, but I know you want to,"
I take my hands back and stand. "It was good tea, I need to go,"
"Luke," Nayda stands in front of me. "How about you go with me to India?"
"Why?"
She smiles. "My cousin is getting married. I will like to show you my culture and rest of my family," her green eyes sparkle.
"I don't know-"
"I will kiss you,"
I smirk at her. "Why?"
She gets closer. "I like you."
"Even if you think I am an alcoholic?"
She hugs me. "I will stop that, if you stop being negative."
Her hair smells like vanilla. Her warmth makes me feel so peaceful.
"Okay, I never been to India," I say.
Nayda smiles. "Yay." She kisses me.Rosalie's Point of View
I am arriving to Daniel's new home. Shayla is shrieking as she admires the decor. I hear jazz music as we enter the kitchen area. We finally see people and Daniel stands out. He is wearing a simple gray suit.
"This is beautiful," I say to Shayla. She agrees.
We say hi to Daniel's friends. Daniel smiles wide at me. I guess he likes my outfit.
"Let me give this young women a private tour. I'll catch up with you guys later," Daniel excuses himself and takes our hands. I am in his right side. "You look so sexy," Shayla comments.
He blushes. "Thank you. You both look great."
Daniel looks at me from head to toe. I feel a bit insecure but I like my dress. It is a halter top, red dress. It hits above my knees. My hair is in simple waves. Shayla took my eyeglasses but I finally got eye contacts.
"This is my studio, well, office," he says. It is a more simple room than his Gordon's office but it has such elegance to it.
"Nice," Shayla sits in his desk. She has pants so she puts her legs up. "How do I look like the boss?"
I chuckle. "Stupid. Get off." I take her arms and pull her up. She giggles. "You suck."
A phone randomly rings. Shayla takes out her phone from her bag. "I'm gonna take this. Where's a bathroom?"
Daniel directs her and she leaves. I touch the surface of his glass desk. "You got a great home Daniel," I say.
He smiles. "Do you love it?"
I nod. "It is so you and it is warm."
He stands next to me. I feel his hand on my hip. "I want you to enjoy this house like I will do,"
My heart begins to ache and I habe butterflies in my stomach. He leans and kisses me. His lips take their time on mine making me feel comfortable. I kiss him back but I want more. I lick his upper lip. Maybe Shayla is right. I need this. I need him.
He groans as he makes me sit on his desk. He wraps my legs around his hips and pull away from the kiss. "Do you wanna-"
The door opens and I jump off. "Shit! Sorry, continue," Shayla yells and leaves.
Daniel laughs. He looks at me. I am blushing so badly. "Man, I can't get a break huh?"
I chuckle. "Um, how about we go back to the party? I really want to eat and see the rest of the house."
He smiles. "Okay, then, can you stay over? Help me decorate my room?"
I see a smirk and I blush. I want to live again. This man saved me from death and I have been down. I have a second chance. I wanted to change the CEO, but now I need to change myself. I want to be a new Rose.
Time goes smoothly and quickly. Shayla leaves me with Daniel. "You need to tell me everything!"
I nod. "Just go."
I walk back to the kitchen. Daniel has a staff cleaning. I ask one of them where he is. A girl directs me the backyard.
I see Daniel siting next to the pool. "Hey," I say.
He turns to me. "You did stay."
I nod. He takes my hand and I sit next to him. "Thanks for coming," he says.
"I need to say something,"
"What?"
"I-I," I clear my throat, "if you want, I want to be with you and be-be your girlfriend now. For real, be your girlfriend," I sigh. I am super nervous!
Daniel touches my left cheek. "I accept." We kiss. His lips taste like cherry. I devour them. His warm is nice and his touch is sensual.
His hand goes to my inner thigh. Every stroke makes me tingle and moan. "Just do it," I say.Daniel smirks, "here?" I chuckle. "No, in your bed."
He quickly picks me up. I feel stupid and girly. By the time I know it, I am jumping unto his bed and taking off my shoes. Daniel pulls me from my legs and gets in between them. "I waited so long for this."
I blush. "You really think I am worth it?"
He kisses my nose. "You are. I love you Rosalie."
I frown. "But-"
He kisses me. "I know but that's okay. Just let me have you and you can have fun with me too."
I smile. "I will."
His finger is circling my special button. I can't hold it when his tongue licks me. I am completely vulnerable. His moans make me moan louder. He loves me and my body.
"Shit, you're fucking wet and good," Daniel attacks me. His tongue flickering and I loose it.Daniel's Point of View
She pulls my hair as I feast. I want her to finish saying me name.
She gasps. "Da-Daniel!" Her body dances and shakes. I stop and look at her aching her back and looking like a Venus. I can't help it. I make her mine. She gasps loud as I enter. I kiss her and smile. She feels amazing.
She is full of sexuality. Her eyes are so different from what they are normally. I taste her small breasts and she moans. She is well alive and wants me.
I take my time.
......Rosalie is taking a nap. Her naked body is agaisnt mine. She was fucking amazing.
I hear her phone ringing. I spot it on the floor. I slowly get out of her grip and get it. It is Luke.
"What you want?" I ask.
"Daniel?" He asks.
"Rosalie doesn't want to hear your voice,"
"I know, but I need to talk to her,"
"Well she is asleep, goodnight," I hang up. I erase his call. Rose doesn't need him in her life anymore. I won't loose her to him.
