Chapter 13

Rosetta

I was a fool, a complete dump. I thought that maybe... just maybe he understands but I was wrong. All boys are the same. No one is good enough in this world…. No one. He's for Ash… She wasn't lying. My mind and my heart were. Drake asked me if I have an experience with it. And….. Yes, I do.

He ruined half of my life, made me angry, broken, and unable to trust anybody anymore…. Not even on myself too. I glance quickly at Drake and look away. I don't want to let him know that I looked at him. He's angry… I know myself of course I am too at him.

Mr. Walker never gonna stop calling me and him…. The monster of my life is still chasing me like a nightmare. They both never gonna leave me alone; I'm not a yes girl anymore. I think I'm thinking too much, these days are special…. Special for the Snow family and I don't want to ruin these beautiful memories. Drake already apologizes to me before our stupid fight and now it's my turn to fix it. His mood is not good and mine too but …. What's so harmful to say sorry?

I sighed as I looked at him… he was staring at the window.

"Drake!" I called his name softly.

No reply… I know he's ignoring me and I chuckle. He looked at me but didn't say anything.

"Drake, I'm sorry." My voice is low and soft, only Drake can hear this not Chris and Andrew.

He sighed as he looked at me with an arched eyebrow.

"You, what?" He asked like he doesn't believe whatever I just said.

I bite the inside of my lip; my heart is beating so fast as I ready myself to say again.

"I said I'm sorry. Did you hear that now?" I asked and he smirked. "Maybe."

Okay seriously, I'm trying my best to fix this problem and he makes fun of it. Boys are boys. They thought we girls are the ones with so many attitudes but no they are wrong…. Boys are not innocent; they've got an attitude too.

"What do you mean by maybe?" I asked. He leans closer to me with a hot devilish smirk, "What I mean is…. Let's pretend it never happened?"

He makes me speechless, he always makes me speechless don't know why.

"Does it help?" I asked very softly and he gave me a very beautiful warm smile and thousands of butterflies started fluttering in my stomach.

"Yes, let's pretend that nothing happened. I never want to hurt you and I knew that neither do you. Let's forget it."

And again he makes me completely speechless but I smile.

"Okay, let's forget it," I said as I saw a look on his face. He looks happy and calm just like I wanted. Andrew let out a funny teasing laugh as he glanced at us in the car mirror and so did Chris.

This whole time... I can't believe they listened to us silently and without saying anything.

Andrew let out a funny teasing laugh as he glanced at us in the car mirror and so did Chris. This whole time... I can't believe they listened to us silently and without saying anything. Oh my God, they are too clever. "Thank God, you two finally patch up now. I'm happy." Chris said as she winks at us.

"Yeah right, so you two are noticing us this whole time. Very good." Drake said as he punched Andrew's shoulder. "Hey, that wasn't our fault, if you two are that much loud," Andrew said as Drake and I glanced at each other.

We all started laughing as we realized that we were really too loud to be heard.

Finally, everything is okayish, actually better than that. Drake and I had no more issues. Just a few misunderstandings and we both really didn't want to bother it. It's a celebration weekend and we both never wanted to ruin that. Chris and Andrew are so happy and excited and we are enjoying it too. Drake..... I don't know if she's his girlfriend.

It hurts... It does but it's his personal life and I don't want to interfere.

I'm already in huge trouble and Drake tried so many times to ask me but I refuse to tell him almost every time. There's nothing to talk about on this stupid hell psycho topic of Jam—

Whatever, I really don't want to talk about that. Mr. Walker is calling me no more thanks to God but he's not the type of man who easily gives up. He's using me and I know that Snow Family is not normal, after everything that just happened to me wasn't normal at all but it doesn't mean that I'm gonna tell Mr. Walker about it. I never. Even if they are hiding something it doesn't matter because I'm not a traitor here. I'm a girl... Just a girl with so many worries and a rude world.

"Yes, we are about to be here. To the most beautiful wedding dress shop.

Are you excited, sweetie?" Chris asked me with so much spark and happiness in her eyes. I'm really glad that she invited me and not only invited me, but she also wants me to be her bride of honor and that's a huge honor for me.

I smiled, "Yes, I am excited Chris." I said with the same spark and happiness as Chris giggled.

I saw a look on Drake's face... It's not a regular look but a naughty one. I don't know how he's so naughty and weirdly hot. But he's... Cute.

"Ladies and gentlemen we are here. The girl's biggest favorite shop."

Chris laughs as Andrew addresses her in the shop.

"Shall we?" Drake said as he opened the car door for me and I nodded with a smile.

Oh my! Chris is right; it's a beautiful shop for every girl.

"Do you like it?" Drake asked me as I glanced at him. His ... Hazel eyes are an enchantment.

"I love it!" as I said that we all entered this big shop. Boys as always went to the groom's section and we girls of course at the bridal's section.

"Wow, it's impossible for me to choose one in front of all these beautiful dresses."

I laugh as I see a wondering look on Chris's face.

Chris picks one dress and looks at me, "What do you think?" Chris asked me and honestly, this is the most beautiful dress with red flowers.

"It's beautiful you should try it on." Chris flashes a smile.

These dresses are really incredible and beautiful. Chris grabs that dress and heads straight to the changing room.

I'm looking for a dress for myself. I'm planning to buy a dress which is light colored. Hmm, Chris planned for her wedding theme and it's light blue flowers with white flowers. So it's better to buy a dress that suits this theme. I saw a dress... The wow dress and it's baby blue with white designs.

"That one." I pointed to that dress and our host grabbed it.

"It's beautiful!" I was looking at this dress and didn't realize that Drake is standing silently next to me after saying that. He coughs in a flirty way as always. "Looks like a hot baby girl is in a mood for some blue?"

I glanced at him as I arched an eyebrow.

"Yep, do you like it?" Drake smirks as he touches that dress just to check it.

"On you, it's beautiful." shit I hate these tickling butterflies dancing inside my stomach without warning me.

"Why do you think I'm a baby?" I asked as Drake laughed.

"It's because you are... Baby girl."

I sighed. "You not gonna give up are you?"

Drake grins as he shrugged, "Nope, unless you prove me."

"You are so—" I stopped myself as I saw Chris come out from the changing room with a heavy white gown. "What do you think?" Chris asked. Drake and I exchange looks then look at her.

"Chris it's beautiful." Drake's complaint is the same too. "Really, I like it but it's too heavy," Chris said. I take a step towards her and straighten that dress from the middle. "It's heavy but it's beautiful at the same time."

Chris giggles, "Yeah I know, but I think I should wear something else which is not heavy like this."

Chris makes a pout face, "I'm not comfortable in this dress."

"Dear, if you are not feeling comfortable then I think you should give it a try to another dress?" I said as our two hosts led us to the section where we can choose light dresses. Chris nodded with a smiley face as we both went there.

"Hey, did you find a dress for yourself or are you still searching like me?"

I chuckle as I show Chris my dress.

"Wow, Rose you are incredible. This dress is really gonna look fantastic on you."

"Aww, thanks, Chris. I love that dress too." I said as the host asked me; "Should I confirm that for you?" I nodded as she started packing my dress.

As I bought that dress I helped Chris with her dress.

After two straight hours finally Chris selected her dream dress. The fabulous white gown with baby blue and pink flowers. I saw Chris, she's so excited and so am I.

After we girls finished our shopping we went to the jewelry shop and then the bridal shoe shop. We did our shopping so we decided to go check out the boys.

We went to the groom section and the next thing that I know Chris gets angry and ready to beat these two boys. Boys are surrounded by the... Girls who are helping them.

"Oh, I'm gonna kill them." it's the last wording of Chris as she punches Andrew on his shoulder. Drake laughs when Chris punches Andrew so Chris punches Drake too.

Suddenly the girls start to leave that place because right now I think everybody should be scared of a girl named Christina Evens.

"Hey, love... They were just helping us that's it."

"That's it?" Chris parrots Andrew's word. "And you Drake?" Drake is really looking scared of her, being unable to say anything.

"You two are so—" Chris stopped herself as she left that place. "Chris!" I called her name, I'm about to go after her but Andrew stops me as he goes after her. "I can't believe that…. Why you two are so….. Like that." I asked and Drake seriously looked worried and scared.

Drake looks at me… God his sweet hazel eyes and an apologetic look… I'm so drowned in his eyes.

"Rose! I know we messed up but trust me it was nothing. We were just—"

"Flirting?" I added and he remained silent for a moment and then... "Sorry." That's all he said, sorry.

Drake and I sat down and thought about how to fix this.

"What are we gonna do now?" Drake asked me and seriously I'm angry at them.

"No idea," I said and Drake glanced at me with a smirk. "What?" I asked softly.

"No idea," I said and Drake glanced at me with a smirk. "What?" I asked softly.

Drake shrugs, "I'm thinking about my poor brother Andrew and how he's trying right now his best to convince my sister. It's funny." As Drake said that he bursts out laughing and after looking at him laughing like a joker I laughed a bit too. "You're so weird, Drake Snow."

"And you like me." I glance at him with a shocking look. The way he just said that was like a sweet little whisper… the sweet whisper only I can hear that. "What?" I asked.

He smirked.

"The way you get jealous when Ash calls me her boyfriend, I know that time you really fantasized to kill her. Admit it or not."

Speechless… as always, words can't come out.

"No, no it's not like that. I don't care if you two are in a relationship or not. Really." Seriously, I'm trying my best right now to convince him that he's wrong… I don't care, I said that but the truth is deep down I know that I am the one here who is lying right now. I do care.

"Told ya! You never gonna admit it. At least not now but soon."

I chuckled, "In your dreams Drake, in your dreams."

"Let's see," Drake said as he gives me the most innocent and the sweetest soft smile that everybody loves including me.

Six minutes are already gone... Six. I'm wondering how Andrew's gonna deal with her. She was so angry and... There was too much anger in her.

"I'm worried about Chris," I said as Drake flashes me a smile.

"Yeah me too but I know my brother he knows how to fix these kinds of matters. He's been an expert since childhood. Whenever they two fought Andrew always took care of her."

I sighed, "Hmm, good to know but... Seriously why you two were hanging out with... Girls?" I asked and instead of embarrassment, he let out a big naughty devilish laugh. I arched my eyebrow... "What's so funny Drake?"

"Nothing, nothing I'm just—" he didn't complete his statement but started laughing again like a kid. He named me a kid and he's the one right now who is acting like a kid.

"Actually, I'm laughing because we were trying our best to get rid of those girls but seriously these girls were too sticky or maybe they never saw the two hottest cute sexy boys before."

"Well, that's your complete misunderstanding to think that you are hot."

Drake smirks as he leans down closer to me, his cold lips touch my ear and it's so tickling and I start shivering. "Am I not... Hot?" He asked me as I glanced at his hypnotic loveable hazel eyes. I bite the inside of my lip as stupid shyness crosses my cheeks and Drake chuckles. "You're so… different." He whispered.

"How?" I asked and I don't know why. But he's staring at me, lost...completely lost. He looks so lost.

"In a good way, Rose. Trust me." His voice is like a sweet, very soft whisper. I think he's an angel. He's not human for sure.

"Is that a compliment?" I asked just to make sure and he nodded.

We both were just enjoying each other's company a few more seconds and then oh God… thank God they are here… hands holding. I'm happy to see Chris's happy face.

"Ah! There you are my dear dramatic family… but still love both of you."

"Aww, Drake we love you too and also you Rose." I smiled when Chris mentioned my name.

"Umm, sorry again Chris, I know we brothers messed up but… actually let's forget that mess and we need you two girls' help for shopping. Seriously that shopping work is you girls we just know how to buy a perfect shot of tequila. Right Drake?" Andrew asked.

"Definitely," Drake said as he saluted Andrew with two fingers.

Drake

After we created a huge mess and Andrew fixed that we requested girls to help in shopping with us because we really don't know how to shop.

"Please help us, Chris and Rose. We really need you both."

Chris sighed, "Andrew! Why don't you just go and ask for those ladies to help you out?"

Ouch, she's still angry. I'm looking at Andrew as he looked at me. Confused.

"Chris, my love it's the first and last time. Promise you I will never do that again." My poor boy again tries his best to convince my sister and she's angry.

"Swear it, Andrew Snow, and you too—" She pointed at me.

I pointed at myself with a finger; my heart is beating fast because I'm scared. "Me?"

"Yes, you Drake Snow."

"You two are so stupid like always."

Andrew took a minute to talk and then he grabs her hand. "We are truly sorry Chris and I swear that will never happen again. I swear."

Chris arched an eyebrow and looked at Rose with a smirk.

"Fine. I give you one last chance."

Andrew exhales deeply and so am I to calm ourselves.

"Thank you, but we still need help?" Andrew said as he looked at me and back to Chris.

"Alright, Andrew you come with me and Rose... You help Drake. If... You don't mind dear?" Chris asks Rose and she softly nods.

"No, it's okay Chris. I'll... Help him." as Rose said that I can't help but smile. I don't know why. But there's... Something inside myself that is jumping right now like a Ping-Pong ball and yeah... I'm happy and excited. I get another chance to tease her. It's really fun to tease her. It always does.

We are finally at the groom's shopping place. Chris went with Andrew and me... Of course with a beautiful kid. "So, did you shop for yourself?" I asked and she nods. "Yep, I'm not lazy like you Drake," I smirked.

"I'm not lazy; I just don't know how to shop?" I said.

Shopping with a hot kid? I think it's amazing.

"So, Drake! What type of dress do you want?" Rose asked me and I made a pout face.

"Hmm, did you buy yourself a dress?" I asked as she smiled softly.

"Yep. All done."

I arched my eyebrow.

"The blue one right?" She smiled.

"Yeah, that one. I love it!"

I smirked, "yeah me too. I'm actually planning to buy a perfect black or maybe grey one that matches your blue dress."

Oh my God, when I just said that the way Rose glanced at me is so sweet and lovely.

"You want a dress that matches mine?" Rose asked me as she folded her arms.

"Yep. Is that a problem?" I asked just to make sure that everything is good.

"No, no problem," Rose said as she looks away, I know she was smiling and blushing too much. God, she's beautiful.

I look at Andrew and Chris, aww they look really adorable and happy with each other.

"Hey, Drake! How about this?" Rose shows me a dress which is dark Grey.

"It's cute, I'm gonna try this one." Rose nodded as I went to the changing room. After a few minutes, I headed out. In my opinion, this dress is good but not satisfying.

"What do you think?" I asked.

"Well, it looks good too but I've got another one." She handed me another dress. And wow, that is satisfying. The shirt is white of course with black pants and coat and hell ya! Baby blue tie. A complete gentleman dress.

"You're amazing Rose, really. I love this dress."

"Yeah I know I'm amazing and I like that too, so go change it." as Rose said that I quickly go for changing it. As I come outside. Rose is blushing and I'm smiling. I asked softly, "I think the baby likes it?"

It's the really first time she didn't get angry after hearing the word baby, instead, she smiles beautifully.

"I love it!" She said like she was so proud of her choice, including me. I chuckled, "Yeah me too."

It's been three straight hours since we all finally did the wedding shopping and now we all are really hungry. So we decided to go to our amazing place which is the Ice-cream Mania in our beautiful town Winchester.

Andrew bought a dress similar to mine but the difference is he chose tuxes. But still, my brother is amazing. We are now together at this mania already ordering our favorite flavors. I'm still feeling this weird but lovely connection between me and Rose.

I didn't like that weird connection at first but now I'm starting to like it. It's not weird at all but still mysterious.

Chris gives a clap to her hands as she sits straight.

"I'm so excited that we finally did our shopping but now only one day is left for our wedding so I've been thinking… How about we decorate our house today? I mean it'll be fun. What do you think?"

Chris asked us as three Andrew, Rose and I exchanged our looks.

"I have no problem love," Andrew said. Drake, Rose you two tell us?" Chris asked us.

I glanced at Rose, she nodded softly and I smirked.

"Let's do this."

"Yaay! That's my family." Chris cheered us as we all quickly started eating our ice-creams.

Then we headed straight to our Mansion. Girls are inside now and we brothers call our few servants while we grab the decorations for our home.
