Jace POV
It made me sick. Every part of them together made my insides churn. I know Vincent was supposed to be my best friend and all, but it's hard to look at him when I find him about to have sex with my girl.
I never told Vincent about Rose and I, so I can't expect him to magically know. I have no right to be angry at him after I abandoned her, but I'm going to get her back. That's why I'm willing to go along with this stupid plan that Jessica devised.
I have no clue if it will work or not, but I'm willing to give anything a shot. I'm sorry Vincent, but this isn't about friendship anymore. This is about love.
Rose POV
After dinner everyone made their way to their own tasks. Vincent, Tyler and Jace were playing Xbox; Christie, Kendall, Jessica, and Danielle were giving each other makeovers. that left me and Kai alone. He'd decided to wash the dishes after dinner, and since we were all alone in the kitchen I saw it as a perfect opportunity to figure out what happened between him and Christie.
"So, what happened?" I questioned, jumping on the kitchen counter.
"What happened with what."
"Kai don't play stupid with me. I'm talking about you and Christie."
He sat down the plate he was washing and sighed.
Kai POV
*Flashback*
"You know we've been friends for a while, and the last couple of years have been amazing. I think we've grown really close, but not in the way that I want us to." I said nervously.
"What do you mean Kai?"
"I mean, I know it sounds crazy, but I like you. I really, really like you. I always have, and I always will."
Christie was quiet for a while. She didn't talk, or even breathe really. She just sat there with a blank expression on her face.
I started to get real nervous and started scratching the back of my head like I always did when I got nervous.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything."
"Kai-"
"What was I thinking? I know you don't feel that way about me."
"Kai-"
"How could you? Look at me. I'm not the cutest, or even that good looking."
"KAI!" Christie shouted.
I looked at her startled, and she just laughed. "Calm down. I never said I didn't like you did I? Though that doesn't mean that I like you either."
The smile that had slowly started to appear on my face vanished instantly.
"Honestly, I've never looked at you in that way before. Like you said, you're like a brother to me. My insanely attractive brother. I thought it'd be weird if I thought of you like that, so when I started developing feelings for you a couple years back, I pushed them away. Right now, I don't know how I feel. I'm not saying that I don't like you, but I'm not saying that I do either. I want some time. I need to collect my thoughts and everything before I can give you an honset response."
*End Flashback*
Rose POV
"Are you kidding me? That's all? I was expecting some sappy love story and some make out session on the beach." I complained.
"Well I apologize that not all of us can be as provocative as you and Vincent." Kai bit back.
I smiled and wrapped an arm around Kai's shoulder. "Sorry that you and Christie didn't go the way you planed, but I guarantee that everything will work out."
"Thanks Rose. You've slowly became my best advice giver."
"That's what I'm good for." I yawned. "Now I'll see you tomorrow. I want to turn in for the night."
"Good night Rose."
"Night Kai." I said, walking out of the kitchen. When I made it to my room I was surprised to find Vincent already laying in the bed. I was actually hoping to avoid him. I didn't know how to respond to him after our previous encounter. Just play cool Rose and pretend that nothing happened.
"What happened to your game with Tyler and Jace?" I asked, trying to make conversation. Maybe that would help thin the tension in the air.
"Jessica made Jace come to bed and Tyler went off to talk to Danielle." He responded as I sat on my side of the bed beside.
It was silent for a little while, and Vincent finally broke the silence. "Hey Rose,"
"Mm?" I answered.
"I want to thank you, for sharing that with me back in the cave. I know that must've been really personal and hard for you to share. You didn't' have to, but you did. I'm happy that you did though."
The statement intrigued me. I saw it as an opportunity to find out more about Vincent. I'd recently realized how little I actually know about him.
"Your turn."
"What?" He asked.
"It's your turn to share a personal memory."
"When I was six I skidded my knee learning to ride a bike."
I slapped him on the chest and frowned. "That's not what I meant."
"Okay let me think... When I first saw you through your window that first day I was mesmerized. I was over a friends house and I glanced up and our eyes met. Then again at that party, and another time in the hall at school. I don't know what it was about you that told me you were different, but I knew it from the start."
"Vincent, what are we really?" I was shocked that the questioned actually left my lips. I'd been thinking it in my head since we left the cave earlier, but I'd never thought I was bold enough to actually say it out loud.
"W-what do you mean?" he stuttered.
Okay Rose, don't chicken out now. You've gone this far, you might as well get it over with. "I mean what are we? After what happened in the cave...what are we?"
"We're just a game remember. First one to fall in love loses." He swallowed.
"Oh. Okay, well good night."
"Night."
I cut my lamp off and cuddled into my blankets. I don't know why his words were so disappointing. It was to be expected. I should've known Vincent only saw this as a game. I almost gave myself up to him to. How stupid I was. I really thought that there was more to our relationship than this stupid game. How naive could I get?
Vincent POV
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Why do you always let your pride get in the way? I know I wanted to tell Rose that I felt our relationship had developed way beyond this game. As much as I didn't want to admit it, I wanted us to be more than this. I was slowly falling under Rose's spell day by day. And even though it sounds pathetic, I liked it. Each and every masochistic part...
