White Roses

Chapter 7

Rose's POV

When I step on the bus the next morning I don't see Serine. I haven't heard from her since Justin asked if he could talk to her, she hasn't called me like she said. Harry isn't here either. Did something happen? "Kian? Have you heard anything from Harry? He isn't here and neither is Serine. I'm starting to get worried." "Erm no, I haven't heard from them. But don't worry, I'm sure everything's alright." "Okay then," I said when I take a seat. It's weird to be on the bus on my own. I don't know anyone except Serine and the boys.

"Hey Rose!" I don't recognize the voice. When I turn around I see it's one of Kian's friends. He has sparkling blue eyes and flat brown hair. He's wearing a blue skirt with flower print. "What?" "Why don't you come over here? You look so silly sitting there alone." "Yea sure, I really do look silly without my friends," I say when I walk up to Kian and his friends. "Don't you mind if I'm here when your friends are with you?" I ask Kian. "Of course not, you're my little sister," he says. At first I thaught he was being sarcastic, but he did mean it. I'm lucky to have a brother like him. "My name's Connor," says the guy who asked if I wanted to join them. "My name's Rose, but I bet you already know because you called me. Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too," he said with a wink. That Connor guy was kinda creepy and I don't even know why.

When I walked into the school I bumped into Justin. "Hello pretty," he said as he hugged me. I started blushing, again. I really need to work on the blushing thing. "Have you seen Seri and Harry?" I asked. "Euh yeah, a second ago they..." He doesn't finish his sentence and stares at something right behind me. When I turn around to look what's going on I see Serine. And Harry. And they're kissing. "Oh," I said. "Found them."

"Erm young lady? I think you gotta explain something to me," I say when I tap on Seri's shoulder. "Rose?! ..Euhn.. I.. No, we.. We need to tell you something," she said with an innocent smile. "Euh yeah.. Maybe we have to," Harry added. Justin came standing next to me. "So?" he asked. I looked at him and caught myself staring at him. We made eye contact for a few seconds. I had to look up at him because he is a lot taller than me. 

"Um she's my girlfriend now, I guess.." Harry said. "And how long has this been going on?!" Justin asked. "Um, a week?" Serine said quiet. "You're dating for a week already and you haven't told me yet? Well thanks girl," I said sarcastic. "I'm sorry," she said as Harry kissed her forehead. I looked at Justin and saw he was already looking at me. I quickly looked away so it didn't get awkward. I hoped he was thinking the sale thing as I was thinking. I was thinking of him kissing my forehead like Harry just kissed Seri's. He wrapped his arms around me and stroke his fingers through my hair. His face came closer to my and I felt his soft lips on mine. But, he wasn't thinking about that.. Why would he? Why would he think of kissing a girl like me? A guy like Justin can kiss everyone he wants.

In class he said some very stupid answers and I couldn't help but I was laughing way more than I should. But when he says something smart I can't help but feeling extremely proud. He poked his finger in my cheek. "Stop it," I said as I poked him in his arm. "No, I like poking you," He said and smirked. "Asshole." "Aw you hurted my feelings, I'm not an asshole!" he said as he said as he tried to fake cry. "Maybe if I get a hug I can forgive you." Oops. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to say that. "Oh I know you love me," he said joking and hugged me. "Ahum, mister Harrison," Miss Martin. "I'm sorry, Miss." he said as i started laughing.

"Serine, wait!" Justin shouted as she left the class and he ran after her. Why would he need Seri? He had to talk to her yesterday already. James and Louis were outside already too so only me and Harry were left in the class. "Why would Justin wanna talk to Seri?" Harry asked. "I don't know," I said a little annoyed. Would they..? What no, Seri would never do that to me! "Rose?" Harry asked. "What?" "Do you.. and Justin.. Um, nevermind," "No, Harry, you can ask it if you want? I don't mind." "Are you and Justin dating?" "What? Me? And Justin? Why would you think that?" I asked as I felt my cheeks turning red. "The way you act when you're around each other. The way he hugs you all the time?" "C'mon Harry, he hugs all the girls like that." "Babe, your red cheeks betrayed you," he said. "Harry, we're not dating! I started blushing because I do have a crush on Justin.." Oops. I should've shut my mouth. "Wait Harry, I don't know why I said that.. But you can definitly not tell him! If he finds out I.." "It's okay Rose, he won't hear it from me." "Thanks Harry, you're a good friend."

Well shit, now Harry knows about my feelings for Justin too. I don't know if this will turn out right.
