My Lonely Demon

Chapter Eight

“The suffering, it doesn’t end, does it, father?”

“We won’t be who we are if we don’t suffer once”

Rosalie POV

“It is a fantasy tale but something is real

How it will end I always feared

My story actually starts with a lie

Because I always knew you were evil in disguise”

I press next, the song and my mood don’t match right now. I hear another beep and check my phone, it’s Milo, a smile touch my face again although it hasn’t left it since morning. My fingers will start to ache in some time, I am totally aware of it, still, I am typing fast as I can, soon another message pops up on my phone and now I have to change my whole text. 

The song stops suddenly and I look up, not realizing that my earplug was taken off. Its Mia, standing over my head, with a grin on her face. I place my phone on the table with the screen on the inside. She quickly pulls a chair and settles in front of me. 

“Well, well, well…. The newbie looks totally in love. Is it the same guy we saw at high” she has placed both of her elbows on the table and her chin on the palms, preparing herself for the gossip. 

“Uh... It’s…It’s not like that” I say trying my best to hide the smile on my face. 

“It didn’t look like nothing” she pointed at the phone which is lighting up the area on the table where I kept it. 

I am caught, I have to tell her now. 

“Cmon, please tell me, my life has gotten so boring, I could only depend on this scandal to brighten up my day,” she says with a wink. 

I pick up the coffee mug and sigh, it’s cold. My smile turns into a frown as I place it back on the table, I will order another. 

“He asked me out” I whisper but it was loud enough for Mia to go all jumpy on the chair. I look around me and let out thanks to God, that the cafeteria is almost empty. Still, I place my fingers over my lips to shush her. 

“Where did you guys go? “ her eyes are filled with excitement, and I don’t know how to tell her the next part of the story. I look down at my entangled fingers before letting out another secret. 

“His Place” this time the tone is so slow that Mia moves her chair near to mine.

“Where do you say?” She is looking at me and I am suddenly red.

“His place,” I say and Mia instantly covers her mouth with her hand. 

“I want to know the details Miss” she is nudging me but I shake my head looking down again. 

“I… I… was thinking to buy something for him” I try to change the subject before Mia forces more secrets out of me. Thankfully it works as she starts to think of something. 

“What do you have in mind,” she says but it looks like she is contemplating some things she had already thought about. 

“Maybe a wallet?” I say and she puts her head in her hands.

“You are no more in school” she pats my head lightly.

“Okay then…the second option was Shirt?” I look at her waiting for a reaction. 

“Too soon girl” she dismisses it again, now I am lost as I thought this will do. 

“You could give him a tie, for now, he wears a shirt a lot, it will be a good gift,” she says looking confident. 

But he wears a leather jacket, why did I just think about him. 

I shake my head.

Why is it that when someone showers us with love, we remember the one who doesn’t

"Is that a no or yes..." Mia is looking at me, waiting for my answer. 

I nod agreeing to her decision. 

As I am returning from the store, keeping the tie in my purse, I hear my phone beep again and soon take it out. 

“Hi”

“Are you free tonight?”

“Do you want to have dinner with me, babe?”

Three messages and my mood is already brightened. I reply back.

“Hi”

“Yes, I am free”

“I would love to have dinner with you”

“Babe (heart emoji)”

I blush, sending the last text. Hope it’s not a lot.

“Great”

“Roommate took my car, or I would have picked you up (sad emoji)”

“No worries”

“I will come there (smile)”

“How about 8?”

I am already thinking about options to wear tonight. I have to borrow something from Sophia, she and I are almost the same size, and she must have dozen of dresses. 

If it is a good restaurant, I would wear a dress and it is somewhere small but cozy, I will wear a top and skirt.

But how do I ask him, where he is taking me. 

“Where are we going?”

“To the place, which has amazing food” 

Dammit, that doesn’t even hint as to where.

“(Laugh) any hints?” 

“It will be a surprise”

Okay, I have to go with my gut and pick a dress. 

“Where are you going?” Sophia asks me while taking out some of her dresses from the Almira. One look at them and I feel like I would faint any second. The dresses are breathtaking and they look like they have never been worn. I look at her with my mouth open and she waves her hand. 

“Just, pick anything you like,” she says while moving to her bed. 

My eyes fall on one in the nude shade and I immediately love it. I pick it up and glance at the mirror and for a second imagine Milo’s expression when he sees me in this. I smile to myself and turn towards Sophia.

“This one,” I said grinning from ear to ear.

She doesn’t answer but look at me for a few seconds and then shakes her head. 

“I hope the guy puts equal effort in the date” saying this she pulls out her laptop and starts doing her work. 

I have matched the dress with a pair of nude sandals I have and applied a little blush. As I am waiting outside Milo’s apartment, I see some people giving me a strange look. 

Is it too much? But it won’t be too much in a restaurant.

“Hi,” he says while his eyes move from top to bottom.

“You look gorgeous” he pulls me in and takes me in his arms hugging me tightly.

Okay, I can’t say I didn’t expect that

When his arms leave my waist, I look at him. He is wearing a casual tee- shirt and shorts. My eyebrow furrow and my lips are in a thin line. 

“Which place allows casuals for dinner?” I ask trying to smile.

“This place,” he says gesturing to his apartment while placing one of his hands around my waist.

“I have cooked dinner for you” saying this he moves towards the kitchen. I follow him 

“I thought we are going somewhere out,” I say looking down. 

“But then I won’t be able to keep my hands off you and we would be in trouble” before I could say anymore, his lips are on mine. 

He slowly picks me up and takes me to his bedroom and places me against the wall. 

“So tell me, did you miss me today” his hands are moving down my dress and I seem to forget how to speak. I nod while a moan escapes my lips when he lifts up my dress. 

Sucking my lips between his, his fingers find the hem of my panties and slowly starts to play with it. I kiss him back hard and deep. Licking his lips and playing with his tongue. His other hand is behind my back drawing me closer to him. 

I could feel his cold fingers over my belly and I am begging him with my eyes to move further. A smile plays on his lips as his finger moves further down. As I close my eyes to life at the moment, an image pops up right in front of me, followed by cries. 

I stop all of a sudden, trying to focus on what’s going on. 

“Everything okay?” He says looking concerned.

“I…I have to go” I push him away and run towards the door before he could ask anything. 

Why did I just see him in my premonitions, what does it mean?
