Trust Me

Chapter 3- Rosy

'''''''''''''''''''''''''
The car came to a stop at a strangely related house that looks likes mine but bigger in certain ways.
"Come munchkin, it will be fun, besides they have a son your age who can keep you company" Dad said, while waiting for me to come out of the car.
"Woah, they have a son and you are just telling me, come on dadd, can't I just go to aanya's, pls" I whine while giving my puppy dog eyes, I really hate meeting people, meeting them means knowing them which also leads to getting weird attraction and the worst part, trusting them, I hate that section, it always ends up as a plague, I mean Aanya and Sophie are cool but for me it's takes time, don't want a repeat of the past.....
"Sorry hun, not working this time, come on it's just dinner and I promise you will have fun"
"Yeah.. Sure" I snort, fun yeah right
Dad knocks softly, it's a sign of respect, that's what he said anyway, a mid-thirties lady with gray eyes wearing an apron opens the door.
"Oh, Peter it's so nice to see you.. Oh and this must be Claire, you are even more beautiful in person" she says embracing me
" Um.. Thanks Mrs. Carter, cute apron".
"Thanks dear and call me Mariah, Mrs. Carter makes me feel old" she chuckles
A little cute brunette haired girl wearing a cute green dress, while holding a paint brush hides behind her mum.
"Oh, this is Penelope, she is very shy, say hi darling" Mariah tells her
"Hi" she says faintly, aww, she's so cute and adorable.
"Hi, my name is Claire, and I love your paint brush" I notice her eyes lit up in amusement when I mentioned her brush
" I'm Penelope, but you can call me Penny, my friends call me that, and thanks my mum bought the set for me" The shy girl turns into a fireball within minutes, talk about mood swings.
"Come let me show you some of my paintings" She drags into the living room
"Wow, i have never seen Penelope warm up to someone so quickly, you have a special daughter, Peter" I hear Mariah whisper to my dad
" So this is my favorite painting, it still needs more work, Mason promises to help me, but he's been off lately"
"Mason?"
"Mason is my older brother"
"oh"
"Mason, Carl, get down here, the guests are here" Mariah shouts from the kitchen
A man whom I assume is Mr. Carter walks down the stairs, he is quite good looking, "Sorry, for keeping you waiting, Peter how have you been, my man" he greets dad
"You know working and of course looking good" Mr. Carter chuckles
"Oh, and this must be your daughter, how are you dear"
"Fine Mr. Carter and I must say that shirt looks good on you"
"Wow, thanks, Call me Carl, I still look and feel young" I chuckle
Perfect first impression check
"Mason!come down here this instant" Mr. Carter, I mean Carl hollers
"Coming" a voice says while jogging down the stairs
Holy mother of Chinese food, he is hot, like really hot. A blond haired with blue piercing eyes wearing sweatpants and a white t-shirt that hugs his muscles tightly approaches his mum with a kiss on her cheek and comes to us
"Honey, I know I am hot but to avoid the flies coming in, I'll advise you close your mouth" He smirks, while dad and Carl laughs
"Oops, looks like you got it all wrong chucky, I was looking at the delicious delicacy your mum just brought to the dining" I lie smoothly
"Chucky? Really, You could do better than that Rosy" He smirk s
Oh i so wish I could wipe that stupid smirk off his face
"Rosy? , really, you suck at nicknames"
" bu-"
" Dinner's ready" Mariah says, cutting off mason's words, thankfully
"This isn't over, Rosy" he whispers to close to my neck, giving me the chills.
Focus, Claire you can't, I repeat can't lose focus
"Come on, let's go" penny drags me to the dinning hall
The dinning hall is pretty big, it's bigger than ours actually, it has 8 chairs and a really long table.
"I got this" I say, helping Mariah set the table
"Thanks sweetie "
"Anytime" Mariah is so amazing, she gives the motherly vibes
We all settle down for dinner, the adults quickly engage in their conversations, Mason takes a seat opposite me, and Penny sits on my lap
"Wait, Penny likes you already, come on, it took me five years for her to finally open up to her and it takes you 30 seconds, wow, just wow, I'm hurt, Penny" He says playfully putting his hand on his toned chest which is blaring from the white t-shirt "
" Come on, you will always be my favorite person, massy" penny says
"massy" I stuffle my mouth full of laughter,
"Guess we all suck at giving nicknames, huh,"
"not all, Rosy is a classic nickname"
"Sureee, keep telling yourself that" Penny giggles at my words.
"So, Claire, I heard you go to Eastwood high school"
"yh, I do, it's quite interesting there"
"Well that's good, Mason attends there too, but we left for a brief family vacation but he will be there tomorrow" That's when realization clicked.
"Wait you are The Mason Carter"
"Woah, yes I am, I suppose they have informed you of my absence and trust me rosy, you will be seeing me more often" he says with a mischievous smirk
Oh god,
This is so not good
I will have to bury myself deep under ground.
Oh God, I needed you... Now!
