Evans POV

So much for going home and getting some time alone to think.

After picking Rosie up I decided it would be best to bring her to my house because I was way too hotheaded to ask her where she lived and bring her there, I also had a first aid kit at my apartment so I thought it would be best.

Yeah right.

The real reason I brought her back to my apartment was because I wanted to have sex with her, but I was going to get consent unlike those assholes from earlier, I didn't know why but I felt drawn to her, I was obviously attracted to her, who wouldn't be, she was painstakingly beautiful even I couldn't deny that.

It was most likely lust I felt and nothing else and the attraction would be easy to get rid of. I'll hook up with her, she'll consent, we'll both love it, and then I would get her out of my mind, and we would both go our separate ways after.

Easy.

I walk to my car with Rosie in my arms and gently place her down to the ground once I reach there, I take out my car keys and start to unlock the door when the sound of her sweet voice interrupts me.

"wait w-where are we going?, school i-isn't over yet" I could tell she was nervous from the way she fumbled and played with her fingers and bit her lips a little.

Those lips.

I mentally scold myself for getting distracted by her features and ignore her returning back to what I was previously doing, I open the car door and motion for her to get in, but she doesn't, she just stands there at me gaping at me and shakes her head.

"Please, I promise you I'm fine, my ankle doesn't even hurt that bad and you don't owe me anything I really have to get to class now if that's okay"

"No, it's not okay so get in the car" I was becoming more frustrated by the minute and her standing there looking clueless didn't help one bit.

"But I really can't skip school, It's only my first day, my parents will be mad, I don't want t-" I interrupt her rambling by abruptly placing my index finger on the center of her lips, loving the feeling it had.

"Rosie, you were almost assaulted and can barely walk I think that's a valid excuse to skip school, now get in the car, I'm not going to say it twice"

She didn't argue anymore probably seeing I wasn't going to take no for an answer, after shutting the car door and getting in I turn on the engine and start to leave.

"D-do um you need my address or anything? it's-"

I answer without sparing her a glance "no, we're going to my place"

Her head cocks sideways in confusion, "um- I uh I can't I need to be back home right after school ends someones already picking me up and-"

"well then just cancel or tell them to come pick you up at my place"

"no, please I really can't, my parents are out and they'll be really mad if I get home late"

I pinch the bridge of my nose in frustration at all her excuses, she kept talking like skipping one class in school was a crime, she had every right to leave that place.

"We have to report those dickheads from earlier though you can go to the front office first thing tomorrow and-"

"no, I'm fine thank you, it was probably just a misunderstanding from their part maybe they thought"

My mind tunes her voice out as I stare at her completely dumbfounded, was she seriously trying to defend the people who almost raped her, what the hell was her problem . The sound of my humourless laugh causes her to be quiet her bright eyes now paying attention to me.

"You're defending them?, you're defending the people who almost raped you" by now we've pulled up in front of my apartment, she shivers vaguely from the tone of my voice her body language radiating fear by the minute, but I'm too fazed by her behaviour and words to care.

"Listen to me," I raise my hand slowly cupping her chin and shifting it so she's facing me fully as her eyes bore into my own. " Don't ever do that again, if someone hurts you they have a right to be punished for it, and trust me what those bastards tried to do to you was not a mistake"

"I know but I would like to keep it between us please, I really don't need any attention right now, I just want to let it pass"

I sigh at her stubbornness but I don't push it at further, I could seethe topic was making her uncomfortable so I decided to drop it, for now.

I step out of the car and go to the other side to help her out once I do I help her to the front door and open it setting her down on the couch.

"Are you sure your parents are okay with you bringing a random girl here?"

" I don't live with my parents Rosie, and even if I did why couldn't I bring who I wanted to where I lived,"

"You don't live with your parents? why is that?" she asks looking a little confused.

My facial expressions hardens at this as I start to think back to the day I moved out, my anger resurfaces as my knuckles clench slowly turning white.

"oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to pry, really don't know why I asked that I was just being stupid and nosy"

She pulls me out of my state of anger as I give her an amused look.

"No Rosie, don't be sorry and you're definitely not stupid, so please don't call yourself that"

Her features contort to happiness as she stares up at me and I laugh at her a little, I shoot her a smile at how she's being and she smiles at me also.

"Your smile is beautiful" my words are serious and create some thick tension in the room.

"Y-yours is too" her voice is shaky and nervous as she replies to me, she starts to fumble with her fingers for the second time today, indicating how nervous she truly is after what feels like an hour of just awkwardly staring at her I realize how stupid and corny I was being and clear my throat.

"Uh- I'll go get the first aid kit," I say hastily shooting up from my previous position on the couch and going to the direction of where I kept the first aid kit, I've had a lot of broken ankles before so I easily know exactly what to do I grab a bottle of painkillers and some ointment and make my way back to her sitting on my couch, she decides to speak up.

"I- I um I still don't know y-your name"

"It's Evan, Rosie"

"okay well-"

The ringing of a phone cuts her sentence short, she looks down and brings her phone out of her pocket, she looks at the caller I.D with wide eyes and quickly presses the answer button.

"Hello, mothe-"

After a minute of muffled words from the other end of her phone the line ends, she's frowning now her eyes glistening with tears as she desperately tries to keep them from falling and for some reason my jaw clenches because of the sight in front of me.

She stands up and lets out a whimper due to the pain in her ankle I hold out my arm for support but she only smiles and looks down at the floor.


"I have to leave now, I-I'm really sorry for troubling you and making you miss school, and I really appreciate the help thank you"

With that she limps to the door, shooting me an apologetic smile as she leaves.
