ROSE POV:
Heading to another store, my steps falter as I rummage through my purse in search for a piece of gum. Someone calls someone's name out, but I ignore it, staying on task.
Growing a bit frustrated, my search was abruptly halted when a hard shoulder bumps against mine, where pain shot up, and my footing looses its balance before I quickly caught myself.
"Watch it," Comes a bitter reply.
Oh my god.
Ignoring the fact that he had an accent, I collected myself and brushed my palms onto my shirt. "I'm sorry."
"You should be." If it wasn't for the sneer on his pretty face, and judgement in his grey eyes, I'd have brushed past him and call it a day.
If he's not going to play nice, neither will I.
I stick my chin up and try to level his eyes although he was a head or two taller. "I wasn't watching where I was going, but that doesn't mean you need to give me an attitude. Maybe next time you should watch it."
His eyes widened from shock and at one last chance to send my message across, I bumped his shoulder with mine while passing him this time.
What an idiot.
He scoffed and my lips tugged.

The Second Chance (Forbidden Romance)
"Will I ever find out why you call me Rose? That's not my name." I asked him playfully. "You are my "Rose". Beautiful and gentle to look at, but touching you hurts me." He answered seriously. "Why would it hurt you to touch me?" I asked him a little scared. "Because I know that when we are alone I can do it, but as soon as we appear in the light of the world, it becomes forbidden for me. And looking at someone who is forbidden to you without being able to touch them, hurts like hell."Complete
I won't wait (BoyxBoy)
"You think I want to hurt you", he strained balling his fist. "You're so foolish", he groaned. "Can I ask another question?". "No leave me alone". He pulled my arm making me force his hand off. "Don't. Do that". He gave me a questioning look before grabbing my hand and backing me into a wall. "What does he have that I don't?". I squeaked at his question, "what?!".
