I glanced at our intertwined fingers and smiled. Life couldn't get much better than this. Of course there was a nagging feeling in the back of my mind telling me that things were going to take a turn for the worse really soon, but that was a given. There were still some things that needed to be addressed. Jessica, for one, and everything that happened between Jace and me as well. But all that could wait. Right now, I just wanted to think about Vincent and me. Us. Together.
"I want to do something spontaneous." Vincent said suddenly. We were in the car, leaving the arena where Vincent had just confessed his undying love for me. Okay, not undying, but you get the point.
"What could be more spontaneous than what you just did?"
He looked at me and smiled. "That was amazing, wasn't it?"
I rolled my eyes and suppressed the blush that was surely rising on my cheeks. "Seriously though. What do you mean spontaneous?"
"I don't know, like bungee jumping."
"Bungee jumping?"
"Yeah, it could be fun."
"And deadly! There's no way I'd ever go bungee jumping."
"Okay, okay, what about hang gliding?"
"Vincent, have you gone mad?" I asked. "Let's do something spontaneous that won't put me in mortal danger."
"Like what?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tonight! Tonight!
There's a part on the rooftop top of the world.
Tonight! Tonight!
Yeah we're dancing on the edge of the Hollywood sign.
I don't know if I'll make it,
But watch how good I'll fake it.
It's alright! Alright!
Tonight! Tonight!
A party. That seemed like the perfect way to do something spontaneous. A random house party. And boy was it wild. We decided to have it at Vincent's house since there was no way in hell My parents would have let us have it. Vincent's mom was visiting her sister in Sacramento right now, so it made his house all the better.
"So you guys are okay now?"
My eyes shifted in the direction of the voice and I smiled at Christie. I already confided in her so she knew about everything that had happened to me in the last week. She visited me every day and brought me ice cream too. I'm convinced she was trying to get me fat.
"Yeah. We worked it all out. Now all we have to do is deal with Jessica. To be honest I'm kind of scared. I can't shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen."
"Don't worry yourself over things like that. Everything is going to be fine. Now bring your sexy ass with me so we can dance."
I laughed, and followed Christie on the dance floor. The song changed and I began crazily dancing to Carly Rae Jepsen and Owl City's Good Time.
Woke up on the right side of the bed.
What's up with this Prince Song inside my head?
Hands up if you're down to get down tonight.
Everyone who was dancing threw their hands in the air and cheered.
Cause it's always a good time.
Slept in all my clothes like I didn't care.
Hopped into a cab; take me anywhere.
I'm in if you're down tonight!
Cause it's always a good time!
Good morning and good night.
I wake up at twilight.
It's going to be alright...
Cause we don't even have to try!
It's always a good time!
At this point everyone started singing along to the song. I was still dancing the night away with Christie, Danielle, Megan, and Kendall. I loved hanging out with them. It made me realize how little girl time I've had since I've been here. None to be exact. Tomorrow will definitely be dedicated to a day with the girls.
In the midst of all my dancing I felt myself being whisked away from the crowd and into the arms of Vincent. My back was pressed against his firm chest and his arms were tightly wrapped around me.
"Hello beautiful." he whispered into my ear. His cool minty breath fanned my skin delicately, sending shivers up my spine.
I turned around so I was facing him and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Hello to you too."
He smiled and showed me those beautiful white teeth. Why did he have to be so perfect?
"Let's get out of here."
"And go where? This is your house."
"Then let's go somewhere else. I'm tired of all these people. Either somebody is pulling you away, or somebody is pulling me away. I'm selfish. I want you all to myself."
He pulled me tighter to him and I planted a soft kiss on his lips. Even in that brief moment, those fireworks were there. I unlocked my grip around his neck and dragged Vincent upstairs to his room.
I think he got the wrong idea because as soon as the door shut, he had me pressed against it and his lips found mind. He kissed me hungrily. I didn't even realize what was happening until my back felt the softness of Vincent's bed. I pulled away from the kiss and put my hands on Vincent's chest.
"Vincent stop."
He stopped trailing kisses down my neck and looked at me glumly. He sighed and rolled from on top of me so that he was lying beside me with his arms around me.
"Sorry, I wasn't trying to force you or anything."
"I know." I grinned. "I'm just not ready."
Vincent sighed, obviously disappointed that he'd have to wait. He shrugged out of his shirt and handed it to me. I took it happily and walked to the bathroom to change.
"Too afraid to get undressed in front of me?"
"No, but your little problem doesn't need any more tempting." I teased.
Vincent grabbed a pillow off the bed and covered himself. I snickered and closed the bathroom door.

Ring, ring.
Ring, ring, ring.
Ring, ring-
"Hello?" Christie's voice chirped through the phone.
"Hey Christie? It's Rose. You don't have any plans today, do you?"
"Nah, why? Do you want to hang out today?"
"Yup! I've had way too much boy drama in the last couple of weeks. I think I just want to have some girl time."
"This is great! The girls and I were just saying how you don't spend enough time with us."
"Yeah, sorry about that. We can all meet at the mall at one and then we can have a girl's night."
I made the rest of the plans with Christie before hanging up the phone and stretching.
"Going somewhere?" Vincent asked, finally waking up.
A guy's sleepy voice is seriously the sexiest thing ever.
"Really? Well maybe I'll talk more in the morning."
Did I seriously just say that out loud?
"Yes beautiful, you did." He stared at me for a moment before sitting up and placing a light kiss on my lips. He pulled away and searched my eyes. "I love you."
I love you too.
Why wouldn't my mouth form the words? What was so hard with saying those four measly words? I sighed just settling for an 'I know.'
Disappointment clouded his eyes, but it vanished just as quickly as it came. He sighed and got out of the bed. "Well if you have some where to be I don't want you to be late."
I glanced at the clock and saw it was already eleven. I guess I'll have to address this situation with Vincent later. Right now I needed to get to my house to get ready.
Girls' day, here I come.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I know it took me FOREVER to update, but here it is. I have a lot on my plate right now. I'm working on two new stories at the same damn time! LOL. I'm ready for this one to be over. I'm working on the possible sequel called "Sincerely, Skylar" and another story entitled "Minnie's Rockin' Summer!" I like this one better simply because it has a lot more humor in it. The writing is better too.
This story might have 6 chapter and an epilogue left :(
But enough of That! Let's talk about this story! Why can't Rose tell Vincent she loves him? And who is excited for the next chapter? I sure am. I've been waiting to write a girl's day.
Anywhoo Vote!!! Comment!!!! I have to admit, I didn't get many Comment's last chapter and It really made me feel some sort of way. I feel like that chapter deserved a lot of comments!!!
