Chapter 3

~~Rose's POV~~

He continues to walk until he's standing foot to foot with me, where I can smell his strong cologne. I look at a spot on the carpet, not wanting to look him in the eyes. I bite my bottom lip, getting nervous from the close proximity.

He gently grabs my chin and tilts my head up. "Why do you get nervous and look terrified whenever I'm near you?" He whispers softly, with a puzzled expression.

"Oh I don't know....maybe because you're invading my personal space!" I snap back.

He laughs then shakes his head. "I know its something more than that. Its almost like you're afraid of the type of person i am, nothing else." He says quietly.

I scoff and roll my eyes despite his words being true. "And what makes you say that?"

"Because you aren't afraid to snap back at me like a cute little angry Chihuahua." He grins as my glare becomes deadlier by the second.

"Can you leave so i can get dressed now?" I say irritated, noticing the way he was eyeing me up.

"Sure thing Chi chi." He says walking out.

"Chi chi?"

"Yeah, you know, short for Chihuahua." He replies back casually, closing the door behind him. I continue to stare at the door with my mouth open. Is he serious? He nicknamed me after a fucking dog!?

"Five minutes!" He calls out behind the door almost as if he knew i was still standing there in my spot.

After finally getting dressed in record time and doing my hair, i grab my books and exit my dorm. I make my way over to my class, making it in just in time as the bell rings. Only when i step in, everyone goes silent and looks at me like im some weird thing about to zap them.

Kyle suddenly stands up from his seat and slowly walks towards me with a confused expression on his face.

"Rose?" he questions still coming closer.

What the hell is going on?

"What?"

"Is it really you?" He asks and hesitantly pokes my shoulder as if reassuring himself that i'm really standing here. He then unexpectedly grabs me in for a hug. "Oh Rose, where have you been this whole time!? We thought you've been kidnapped!"

"Stop it you weirdo! You saw me like literally ten minutes ago!" I exclaim.

Malcolm suddenly stands up as well and walks closer. "Rose....You've been gone for a whole month..." He says with a worried look.

My eyes open wide as i examine the students in the room, all looking at me as if they've seen a ghost.

"I...what...?" i check my phone and drop my books as there on the screen reads May. Last i checked which was this morning, it was April.

I clutch my phone tightly as i begin to shake from fear. Where have i been this whole time? What is even going on?

My breathing accelerates as i try to find a possible explanation for this. Just then the door bursts open and i drop to the floor screaming. I shut my eyes tight and stay still, not daring to move a muscle.

"Miss Andrews, Please take a seat, it is not nap time." I recognise the voice as my Advanced Biology teacher. I stand up slowly and look back at Kyle who has a smirk on his face. Pretty soon the whole class erupts into laughter. Including Malcolm.

It was then until realisation hit me that this was Kyle's way of 'pranking' me. I scowl at him as i take my seat, which happened to be beside his. I stare at my phone still wondering why it says May.

Kyle noticing, speaks up. "I changed it when i was in your room. I was actually playing on your phone. Funny because i thought you'd realise but...i guess not." he smirks as i clench my fists.

"Leave. Me. Alone."

"Awh don't be mad. It was just a joke."

"Shut up! I cant believe you got Malcolm to help you!" I exclaim as i glare bullets at Malcolm who only smiles sheepishly.

"Sorry Rose, your reaction was hilarious." Malcolm apologises. But who can stay mad at him?

"Whatever."

After class had ended, i go back to my dorm with Laura which we spent the night watching Teen wolf and eating all sorts of junk food since its Friday.

"So what do you think of the new kid, Kyle?" Laura questions while chewing on some chips.

"I hate him. He embarrassed me in front of the whole class simply because he couldn't find any other way to entertain himself!" I complain whilst harshly biting into my snickers bar.

"Well i think he's hot and sweet. You know he gave up his pen for me!? Oh it was like a romantic moment when we locked eyes." Laura sighs dreamily whilst staring off into space.

I roll my eyes. "Give me a break! He stole Malcolm from me for crying out loud! He just committed the number one crime of all time! He cannot go unpunished." I argue.

Laura gasps dramatically. "You touch my man and i'll show you what pain and humiliation feels like, woman!" She jokes and i couldn't help but laugh.

"Oh trust me, I wont even look at his face!"

Halfway through season four, i decide to ask the question that has been burning in my mind for a while. "So Laura..." i start. She hums in reply. "Do you really like Kyle? Are you just saying it or do you really mean it?"

She pauses on a scene on a shirtless Derek. Really? now i'm going to get distracted.

"Yeah i do. Hell i think even a lot. I mean, we get along quite well during P.E, we make a good team." She replies with a smile.

"So you wont mess around with other guys then?" I question raising my left eyebrow.

She laughs and lightly hits my shoulder. "Naah, No more messing around with boys."

"Good, because i was starting to run out of air fresheners and i don't want to spend any more money on them. They're very expensive."

We were soon consumed in a deep sleep with the shirtless Derek still on the screen. Ahh, what a nice last view before my eyes shut.

The next morning I was awoken to someone screaming bloody murder. I bolt up awake, looking around frantically, my eyes searching for any sort of danger.

My gaze lands on a horrified Laura as she points at me still yelling...
