Chapter 12 – Rose

“Oh my God.” Artie’s eyes nearly pop out of his head, just like I hoped they would. “You look incredible. That dress… wow. It looks great, and your hair… you are making my heart race.”

I let out a little happy laugh before I grab him, and I pull him inside the room with me. “You don’t look too bad yourself. Those leathers looking fucking sexy on you. I’m starting to really like them.”

Then I kiss him. I absolutely claim him with my mouth and let the week of frustration without him out. It really is hard to be away from him and that becomes even more apparent every time we are together. I have to admit that there is a real temptation to just stay here and forget my real life. Leave it behind.

“So, how have you been?” I gush while finally letting go of him. We have all night for kissing and much as I want to rush ahead and fall in to bed with him once more, I also want to know what is happening with him. “How did your meeting or whatever it was go? Did you manage to sort things out?”

“I am in the process of doing so,” he replies mysteriously. “And I have also been doing a lot of thinking about what I want to do next so that I’m not just a freaking burden on you.”

“You… you have?” I never thought of him like that at all, but I suppose I can see what he means. If he doesn’t find a way of supporting himself financially then I will be the one who is responsible for him. “Really?”

“Yes, and I want to finally go to business school, like I always planned so that I can finally have the life that I was always going to… but I want to work at the same time as well. Juggle the two things.”

“Wow, that is a lot.” I can’t help cocking my eyebrows in surprise. “Big ambitions.”

He curls his arms around me and kisses me softly. “Because I need to be the best for you.”

“I don’t need you to be the best, you know,” I reassure him. “I just want you to be happy, that’s all.”

He dips his head low and kisses me some more, making me feel like I am flying higher than air. “I am happy. Whenever I am with you, I feel happy. I just want to be the best me at the same time.”

I can appreciate that. I know exactly what he means. I want to be better for him as well. I am already doing a much better job of life than he is when it comes to my career and things, but I do want to be more. So, maybe that is something that we can work on together. We can help to improve one another.

“Is that something you intend to do around here?” I ask curiously. “Is there a business school here?”

“I don’t know.” He shudders as if this idea is horrifying to him.
