Author's note:
Hello dear readers! I hope you're all safe and staying home during this tough time we're facing. I just wanted to let you guys know I changed Rose's character from Claudia Walsh to Scarlett Leithold because it was a lot easier to find pictures of Scarlet since she's a model, and Diana will be casted as Charlotte DeAlessio. Now you don't have to actually picture her like I do, feel free to imagine Rose as whoever you'd like :)
Happy reading x
When I woke up the next day, my muscles were screaming in pain. I rolled around to my side and stared out the giant window and emptied my mind. However it did not last long, as I realized I have forgotten all about my best friend Diana. She must be freaking out trying to reach me! I hurriedly jump out of bed and threw on some sweatpants and a large band tee shirt before rushing down the stairs. In my haste, I bumped into Enzo who caught me before I fell.
"Woah there princess, what's the rush?" he chuckled as I pushed strand of my hair out of my face.
"I need to see Jack, it's urgent" I stressed. "Where is he?" I questioned. "Okay, calm down take a breath, whatever it is we can fix it. I'm not sure, I think he's in his room still. Is there anything I can-" I bolted back up the stairs before he even finished his sentence.
I knocked impatiently on Jack's door and when he did not answer I barged in. My eyes scanned the room, it was mostly white walls and a huge bed with black sheets. No pictures or posters were hung on the wall, it was so empty it sent a chill down my spine. I stepped forward, just as the connecting bathroom door opened and revealed a half naked Jack, with only a towel covering his modesty.
"Can I help you?" he asked, his morning voice making me feel some type of way. My treacherous eyes wandered down his sculpted chest and further, before I quickly turned around.
"I, uh actually yes. I need my phone, my best friend Diana must be going out of her mind looking for me. We usually always text or call each other once a day, it's been almost three- well today makes it three days since we've spoken and I just really need to talk to her." I rambled, feeling the heat spreading on my face.
I heard some shuffling from behind me, and then his husky voice. "We'll take you to see her, and you can have your phone back, you're not a prisoner here you know."
I turned around to find him dressed and in his hand laid my phone. I gave him a big smile and couldn't help myself but hug him and mumbled a quick thank you taking the phone and running out of his room.
I throw myself on my bed and open my phone. I had 45 messages and 78 missed calls from Diana, and three from my mom. Damn it, how am I supposed to explain myself now?
I dial Diana's number. She picks up on the first ring.
"Rose Valentina Marino where the fuck have you been? Do you know how fucking worried I was? I went to your apartment, it was fucking destroyed. I almost called the fucking police but when I went to the school they told me you were taking some time off? What the actual hell Rose, I thought you were hurt, or kidnapped or worse fucking dead!" she screamed, her voice cracking towards the end.
"I am so sorry this happened, Dee. You have no idea. I have so much to tell you. Can I see you today? Are you busy right now? I'll come to you, it's better I tell you in person than over the phone. What I can tell you is I am okay, safe, but in desperate to see my best friend" I hiccuped.
"I can't right now, but I can at 5? Does that work?
- Yes of course, I'll come over then, I smiled.
