The Beauty In It

Chapter 5

COLES POV 

I'm unsure if I actually want to get to know her. She's rude, selfish, and doesn't seem to have any reguard for others. But there is just something about her that draws me in. At first I thought it was her looks but in all honesty I dont think it is. I dont know what it is but I will find out.

ROSES POV

After being greeted by Coles mother he lead me up the stairs and into his room. "Where do you want to start?" I asked    "Oh umm... how about we research the top ten list of most popular songs and go through the lyrics of each song in depth."    "Not a bad plain... I suppose we'd better get to work"   

After a few hours of work we decided to take a break and  go get coffee. To Coles surprise I suggested it. I'm not always a total bitch... but I have my reasons for being one most of the time. "Why do you not like me?" Cole asked   I waited a bit before responding. I sighed. "It's not that I don't like you... it's that I don't know you so I dont trust you."   "How will you get to know me if you push me away?"   "Who said I wanted to get to know you?" and with that the rest of the ride was silent. I don't want to get to know him. I don't ever want to be hurt like that again. We got to the coffee shop and had ordered and taken a seat. We didn't talk for a while until I noticed Cole staring at me. "Umm.. do I look bad or something ??"  "Oh wow no of course not!! You look beautiful... I was just wondering who hurt you..."   "....how..how do you know someone hurt me?"  "Why else would you 1. be so cold/rude to others and 2. why are you opposed to getting to know me... also I can just see it in your eyes.... you're broken."   He was absolutely right but I was not going to show it. "Oh.... I have no reason to discuss my actions with you..." And with that the conversation was over. 

When we finally returned to Coles house it was pretty late so we decided that it was best if he followed my car home just to be sure I returned home safely. That was a sweet gesture. I was starting to feel pretty bad for the was I treated him this afternoon so when we got to my house I gave him a proper goodbye and an apology.  " Cole.. thank you for making sure I returned home safe."   "No problem babygirl"   babygirl... thats new... "and im sorry for being rude -"  "No no no don't apologize for that I was wrong I was being invasive... you'll open up when you're ready."    I smiled slightly "Goodnight Cole"     "Goodnight Rose"   and with that he left...
