ROSE

50. Jealousy

A N T H O N Y

I was driving like a manic but that was the latest of my caring. I wanted to arrive there, hold them all by their throats and kill them for doing all of this because of me. They didn't even get to do what they wanted to do but they caused that stupid idiot win a point to Rose and me losing a lot of her trust.

When I arrived to the party, they were still playing the stupid games they play every single party we go to. I can't believe the people I used to trust did that to me.

"Anthony," Beth's voice rang behind me over the music. I turned to her. She opened her mouth to say something but I interrupted her.

"Explain to me everything that happened." My voice sounded more angry than I wanted. I needed to calm down to not murder someone today. I need to defend Rose without having to kill someone. Cameron passed the red line trying to touch MY Rose and he thought he would get away with it. He's dumb thinking I'd do nothing if he ever even thought about touching one hair on her head. I'd cut his hand before he does it.

We sat down and she bought me a drink to calm down. "Explain, Beth, I need to leave soon." I needed to go back to Rose.

"It was all Cameron, Tia and Lindsay." She said. I widen my eyes.

"Tia? Rose's friend?"

"I don't know," she frowned. "You don't remember Tia? Tiara, Nathan's ex?" She said.

"Nathan who?" I was already getting angry and it wasn't the time to remember everyone I met in my life for a stupid story I wanted to hear to know the names that got involved in.

"Nathan, Noah's brother, the guy you threw in jail because he wanted to date Lena." I turned to Beth when she pronounced her name. Since we broke up, I hated her, I never wanted to hear her name again and never wanted to anyone of my friends nor talk to her nor talk abour her. She was my first girlfriend, basically the only one that I actually loved and the asshole just came and decided to make her cheat on me. I know it was also her fault but telling the whole school about her cheating was enough to make her get out of my life and never coming back. But to him, telling the school wouldn't matter. A girl cheating is a big deal but a guy sleeping with his best friend's girl is cool somehow. I bought drugs and sneaked them in his car and called the cops. He's still in jail. I knew he has a girlfriend and I saw her once or twice but I totally forgot the whole thing since it happened three years ago and I tried my hardest to block everything that has to do with her or him out of my skull. So it's Tia his girlfriend now? Wow, Rose, what are these great friends you have!

Beth explained exactly what happened and who did what. Tia put the drug in her cup, Cameron picked her up in the room and Noah was the one they were going to use to get his revenge for his brother. And obviously, Lindsay was the brain of this whole situation. She's the one that drew everything and told everyone what to do. But Noah knew how to win Rose. He knew that taking the picture will make him lose her and that's not what he wanted. He was looking forward to mark his accomplishment of taking Rose from me, not losing Rose to take revenge on me. I scoffed, good job, Noah but the game is not over.

On my way to Rose's house, she wasn't answering her phone. Of course she wouldn't. I wasn't there when she needs me because of how stupid I am believing this Tia on the phone. I should've known. But her not answering didn't even make me think twice about going. I knew I had to go. I went but when I knocked on the door, she wasn't answering.

"Rose!" I yelled, knocking louder. I knew making me scene will be the only way to make her open the door. She cames about her neighbours more than she cares about herself. "Rose, open this door right now." I knocked louder. She wasn't answering. I frowned and tried knocking again but there was no answer at all. I tried calling her again but she wasn't answering her phone. She's probably not home yet.
