You're the One for Me

Chapter Twenty-Two

"Thank you, Rosie." She replied as she gave me a hug before going out of the room.

"What about me?" Ben asked me.

"Oh yeah. I almost forgot." I replied as I ruffled his hair...a lot.

"What the hell?"

"You said you wanted me to do your hair."

"Yeah. But not so I look like an idiot."

"Well next time you should be more specific."

Ben then wrapped an arm around me and brought me down towards him. Next thing I was aware of, we were kissing.

"Rosie!" Sara called out as she ran back into the room. "Could you play with me?"

"Sure, sweetie. I'll be with you in few minutes." I replied as I sat up again.

"Yay!" Sara said excitedly as she ran back to her room.

"You're gonna play with her?" Ben asked me.

"Not just me, stupidhead. You're playing with us." I told him.

"What? No I'm not."

"Yes you are. Otherwise I'll screw up your hair again."

"Fine, fine. Did you...uh...need help getting dressed?"

"I'm sure I'll be fine."

"Okay. Suit yourself." He said as he got out of bed and went to change in his walk-in wardrobe.

I adjusted my brace thing on my leg, and would've stood up, but when I tried to, I fell back onto the bed. I really need to get use to walking with this thing weighing my leg down.

I got dressed and handed Ben's shirt back to him.

"Thanks." I said.

"You can keep it if you want." He told me.

"No, it's alright."

"I'm serious. Keep it. It looks better on you anyway."

"Oh, thanks."

"That's alright. I would've made you keep it anyway." He said to me.

"Sure you would've." I replied. "Come on then. Let's go play with Sara." I said.

Okay. When Sara meant playing, did she mean let's beat up Ben some more? If so, this game was really fun. It was just Sara hitting him though. I was just there to tease him some more.

My phone rang and I left the room. I then answered to Jess.

"Where are you, Rose?" She demanded.

"I'm at Ben's place. Why?" I replied.

"Oh, of course you're at Ben's place." She said as she started talking to someone else.

"Who are you talking to?"

"Oh, right! Well if you must know, Zac's here."

"Why does he have to come over all the time?"

"Maybe because he loves you and wants to get back together."

"Yeah, no. Tell him I'm sorry, but I don't things are going to work out." I told her.

"Maybe I'll just send him over there to pick you up, then you can spend some time together to work things out." She said.

"You really don't need to do that, Jess."

"I think I do, Rose."

"Well you don't. And even if he did show up here, him and Ben would fight."
