Rose's perspective

When Rose wakes up, her sister is already seated comfortably on the couch, her phone screen lighting up her face as she texts someone.
The twin doesn't seem to notice her, so she just grabs her own device, turning it on to find a text from an unknown number. They had texted her around 2am, shortly after she had gone to bed.

???
I have answers, darling


Totally not sketchy at all. Glancing back at Jayce, who is still typing away on her cell, the blonde decides to text back.

Rose
Who is this?

???
A friend

Rose
Right
Sure

???
It's the truth
I helped your mother with her powers

Rose
So tell me who you are

???
I would
But it's not safe at the moment

Rose
How so?

???
Let's just say I have an interesting past

Are you busy Saturday?

Rose
Maybe

???
Meet me in the park Saturday night
Come alone

Rose
Yeah no

???
Your answer might change
I'll be waiting


She didn't text back after that. Just shut off her phone, and snuck around to peer over her sister's shoulder.
"Who ya textin'?"

"No clue," Jayce chuckles, pocketing her phone and standing up, the blonde trailing behind her with a pensive look.

They grab breakfast, not bothering to wake up Benjamin, but the text lingers in the back of Rose's mind.

Meet me in the park Saturday night.

Would she go?

Come alone.
