JACK AND ROSE: PRESENT TIME
Chapter
Thirteen
"Oh Rose, I
just love them!" Dominique said as Rose showed her the new shoes she
bought yesterday.
"Are we gonna
go shopping today?" Tonya asked as she painted her fingernails on Rose's
bedroom floor.
"Sure! I think
we definitely should. I need some new hats," Dominique said.
They all laughed.
"What Dom, did those other hundred of hats just disappear?" Tonya
asked.
"Well, let's
get ready to go," Rose said.
After they were all
ready, they all went out into Dominique's car.
Once they got to
the mall, they parked the car and went in.
"You guys,
this is so much fun. It's been along time since it was just us three,"
Dominique said.
"Yeah, it's
kinda like girls day out," Tonya said.
"Think
again," Rose said as she pointed to Jack, Tommy and Fabrizio coming down
the glass elevator.
"Oh great, do
we have to shop with them to?" Dominique asked.
"Come on, I
want to go talk to Tommy anyways," Tonya said as she pulled her friends
with her to the elevator stop.
The door opened.
"Hey girls," Fabrizo said.
Jack went right to
Rose. "Hey Rosey."
"Hi
sweetie," Rose said as she gave him a kiss.
"Pathetic,"
Fabrizio said.
Jack just kept
smiling, like nothing was said.
"Can you come
over tonight?" Rose asked.
"Sure, what
time?"
"Um how bout'
around eight."
"I'll be
there," Jack said as he kissed Rose.
"Public
place..." Fabrizio said.
"At least we
didn't have sex on the beach!" Jack said.
"They like
makin' bacon on the beach," Tommy whispered to Tonya.
"Look you
guys, Fabrizio and I are just friends. It was just one of those, one night
flings," Dominique said.
"Dominique's
right," Fabrizio said.
The rest of the day
they split up. The girls got to do their shopping and the guys continued
clowning around.
Later that
night...
"Jack, you're
here," Rose said as she opened the door.
They both shared a
kiss. "It's good to see you again."
"What do you
wanna do?" Jack asked.
"Well, my
mom's out of town on business, we have the whole house to ourselves. Can you
spend the night?"
Jack smiled.
"Sure, let me go call my uncle and tell him I'm spending the night at
Fabrizio's."
Rose handed him the
cordless phone.
After that, they
went to the living room and sat on the couch together.
"I love you so
much Rose," Jack said as he ran his fingers through her hair.
"I love you
too," Rose said as she pulled him closer to him and they kissed.
They kept kissing
and stripping each other's clothes until they heard the doorbell ring.
"I'll get
it..." Rose said as she got up off the couch and went to the door, with
Jack staying on the couch in his underwear.
She opened it.
"Mother what are you doing here?" Rose said loud so Jack would hear
it.
"Shit,"
Jack said as he ran to the closet and shut the door.
"Rose, let me
in," Ruth said as she pushed the door open and walked into her house.
"I decided to take the plane back tonight."
"Are you here
alone?" Ruth asked.
"Uh...yeah."
"I need to
hang up my coat," Ruth said.
"Mother, I'll
do that for you," Rose said as she took her mother's coat.
Rose opened the
door and through the coat in.
"Thank you
Rose, I'm gonna go up to bed, will you be alright?"
"Yeah,
goodnight Mom."
"Goodnight
dear."
Rose went over to
the closet. "Jack, I'm so sorry."
"Rose, it
wasn't your fault," Jack said as he started to kiss her some more.
"Jack, my
mother's right upstairs," Rose whispered.
"Ah, okay.
I'll call you tomorrow," he said as he gave her one final kiss and left.
"What a
day," Rose mumbled as she went up to her room to go to sleep.
