Kathy's P.O.V
I'm woken up by my alarm ringing and a strange empty feeling overcomes me. I open my eyes and see that I'm alone in my bed.
Well, not necessarily because on the pillow beside me is a rose. Not just any rose. A red rose. I've received all kinds of roses. This is the first red rose. In no particular order I have received;
A yellow rose.
A pink rose.
A white rose.
A gold rose.
A sliver rose.
A sky blue rose.
An emerald rose.
A black rose.
A 'burning' rose. I don't know how that pulled that one was off. I literally thought that the rose was on fire.
A orange rose.
A plum rose.
A peach rose.
A magenta rose.
A diamond rose.
And lastly a red rose.
That's fourteen roses in total. I notice that there's an envelope next to the rose. I don't know why I'm so nervous to read this letter. I mean, most of these roses came with notes so I don't know why this note is giving me heart palpitations. I guess its because red roses carry a lot of weight. Am I really ready to see what is inside this envelope? What if I'm not happy with it? What if it's not what I want to hear. Well, read. I'm scared.
...you need to face your fears. Open it and find out all the answers to your questions...
With one last deep breath biting my bottom lip and then I open the envelope and read what's inside.
To my dearest Princess👑💕
Fourteen days into February. The only important fourteenth day that I'm afraid we've missed together this year due to unforseen circumstances being your disappearance. But it's the fourteen that I decided to make up for with fourteen roses. I didn't expect it to last this long but I guess as they say 'when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade' and that's what I tried to do. Give you something to brighten up your day the way that you unknowingly do for me. It took me a while to figure out why you have walls built up so high and why you're always so cold. And now that I know, I can't help but to find you so fucking addicting. Special. I've tried to stay away from you and not 'catch feelings', I really did. But those feelings caught me and there's nothing I can do about it because I don't want to. I know you feel the same way I do. And I can't promise that I'm going to be a knight in shining amour for you but I can at least try to brighten up your days in any way that I can. I promise you that. I know you're scared. I am too. I've never done this before but, I don't want to start with anyone else but you, so I demand that you give me a chance to show you that I'm not going to hurt you. Not intentionally at least. And because I'm afraid that you might not trust your heart and that you might break my mine due to your insecurities, I've decided for the both of us. I am yours. And you are mine. That's how it's going to be for a long time, so you should accept it rather than try to fight it. So I guess, I'll see you at school, girlfriend.
