wandering star,
chapter fifteen.

—— 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙚 sat in the old beaten down car parked in freddie's shed, her legs resting on the dashboard as she relaxed with a spliff between her chipped fingernails.
smacking sounds from the sofa beside her made her want to absolutely vomit — mainly because it'd been going on for the past half hour.
"jesus, you can't take your hands off each other while i'm smoking here?" she finally spoke up, not wanting to hear the sound of saliva mixing any longer. Katie let out a giggle as she turned to the blonde with a smirk.
"when you have a boyfriend this irresistible, you'll understand" Rosie rolled her eyes, "can't wait" she sarcastically remarked. inhaling the spliff as she took her eyes off the couple once more.
her brown eyes averted to the door, where the handle began to move. it opened up and revealed a nervous looking Effy. Katie smirked, "Hi, Effy."
Freds pulled away from Katie at the mention of the girl's name. "babe, i'm not being funny, but you look like microwaved shit. what's up?"
"nothing"
one thing about Rosie and Effy, was they could read each other like a book. they knew one another better than anyone else in the world.
she came to tell him she loved him.
as Eff started to walk away, Katie stopped her. "oh my god, it's really good you're here, actually" she stood up. "you can drive, right?"
"yeah, why?"
"cause" Katie looked behind her over to Freddie. "me and Freddie are having a party. in the woods. what's it called again, honey?"
Effy looked over to Rosie, smiling to herself as the blonde pretended to blow her brains out with her finger gun. Freddie trailed off, trying to remember what it was called.
"Gobblers end" Rosie answered for them, considering it was all they had been talking about since she got there. "that's right." Katie intertwined her fingers with her boyfriend's.
"i was going to borrow my dad's car, but he has to—" he was joined by Katie as they finished his sentence; "take Karen to an audition"
she couldn't help it. Rosie let out a giggle at how hard Katie was trying to mark her territory.
"we're always doing that" Katie told Effy.
"maybe. i have to ask my mum if i can borrow the car."
the couple then shared a look, "um, can we ask you something, though?" she sighed, "me and freddie want this to be like... a quiet thing... um, not some kind of..." she looked over to freddie who was sparking up his own spliff. "what did i call it before?"
"pikey hoe-down"
she smirked, "thanks babe."
"so?"
"so, Cook's not invited. cause we don't like him." Rosie absolutely hated the idea of them excluding James. he made a lot of mistakes, but all he wanted was to be loved, even if he went about it the wrong way.
but she also felt hurt by him — so being away from him for a bit, didn't seem like too bad of an idea.
"like i said, i have to ask my mum."
𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙚 sat between Pandora and JJ, she couldn't help but groan as she got tired of the stares she kept getting from the girl next to her.
"got a staring problem, Pandora?" the usual tone Rosie would use toward Pandora was replaced by a harsh and dry one.
the clueless girl raised her eyebrows, "are you mad at me, Rosie?" her cluelessness sent the girl into overdrive, but she maintained her composure as she looked up into the rear view mirror where she was able to make eye contact with Thomas. "surprised I'm the only one" she remarked, he had to have known. surely he wasn't completely clueless.
Pandora widened her eyes, was she caught? her mind fastened, and it didn't help that her phone began to ring, causing her to jump in surprise. she already knew who it was, she didn't even have to look.
Cook.
Rosie and Thomas both caught a glimpse, even though pandora quickly accepted the call — which Rose couldn't help but think was a fucking dumb move.
"can't talk now, mum. later"
a scoff left her lips, she couldn't believe how incredibly stupid pandora was. she used to feel sorry for her, her naïveté. but eventually, everybody has to take accountability for their actions.
"don't not talk to your mum on our accounts — call her back, i'm sure she's dying to talk to you" Rosie motioned toward the hung up phone call.
Pandora shook her head, "oh, no. she's just pestering me . . . she doesn't like me being out of the house"
this time Effy made eye contact with Rose. they both knew the truth — it was Cook, and only one of them was hurt by it.
"you sure this is the right way?" Effy asked Katie, who sat in the passenger's seat with the paper map in her hands. "it's what the map says"
𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙚 walked into the empty gas station, Katie following closely behind as the two looked around for the clerk.
"hello? anyone here?"
the girls shared confused looks, "hello?" complete silence. "how the fuck is nobody here?" Rosie let out a groan, walking over to the refrigerators. "grab a few snacks, will you?"
"yeah, sure" Katie did as asked, "what soda do you want?" asked Rose. "Coke's good" the shorter girl grabbed a few different sodas, before meeting Katie at the register.
she dug into her pocket, "a tenner should be good, right?" she asked, placing it onto the counter — she was a lot of things, but she wasn't a thief.
"anything's enough, babe. they're lucky we don't just take them" that was true. as the girls went to leave, the door bell signaled somebody walked in — and it wasn't a friend.
"you leaving something for me, lovelies?" he chuckled creepily, digging into his pants and touching himself — Rosie let out a verbal disgust for the man, nearly gagging at the sight.
"let us out, please" Katie spoke shakily, it was obvious she was frightened by the man.
he smirked, "cause i've got something for you"
the man pulled at himself, "move your dick before i rip it off. i'm not joking you fucking perv"
he didn't budge, and continued to pleasure himself. "god you're fucking disgusting! move!" Katie managed to slip past him, yelling for help as she ran out the door causing a shotgun to go off.
Rose went to follow after her, but the man lunged at her, only to earn a kick to the groin. "hurry! get in!" she yelled as she ran toward the car.
Freddie noticed how startled the girls were, and quickly put away the gas pump, before getting into the car.
"what happened?" Emily asked the pair.
"the shop clerk's a fucking pervert!"
