The Sweet Billionare

Chapter 2

Chapter 2- Rose POV

Finally, in my room after what seems like forever, I stare at the ceiling thinking back to Kelseys and me’s conversation.

Flashback

“Tell me the truth, you’ve been acting strangely for a while now you’ve been late to class almost every morning, you look so tired, please tell me the truth..are the dreams back?” she says with concern in each word. I stop walking and look at her for what seems like forever. I have to tell her, but I can't because I want to forget about it and it’s best she’s the only one who knows what happened and I plan to keep it that way, taking the secret with me to the grave. “What, no, I’m just tired you know from school and work,” I say to her but the disgusting feeling in my mouth makes me regret lying to my best friend. “Don’t worry I’ll try to sleep earlier so I don’t have to rush in the morning to get to class.” Kelsey just stares at me looking for any doubt in my voice but eventually gives up and changes the subject.

End of Flashback

Looking at my phone I notice it’s almost time for my shift at Sweet Dreams Bakery in downtown Chicago.

Walking in through the front doors you are hit with the sweet smell of freshly baked pastries that make your mouth water. The interior is elegant yet simple with marble white floors, a chandelier right in the middle of the room and through the glass all the brightly colored cakes and pastries.

Going to the locker room to change I see my favorite co-worker Emily. She has long light brown hair and green eyes but doesn’t let her petite size fool you this girl is fierce and has no type of filter whats so ever.

“Oh my god! It’s been f*****g forever since I last saw you!!” Emily says running up to me to give me a bone-crushing hug. Emily was on vacation this lucky b***h got to go to Miami Beach, Florida. “I mean you have been gone for almost like three freaking weeks! Leaving me all alone” I say with a big smile on my face.

“Finally only 10 more minutes until we close,” Emily says looking at the clock. “Why? You going somewhere where you're not supposed to be” I say coming behind her side to tickle her. She squeals and tries to run away from me but too late she can’t. “Stopp!! You know I hate being ticked! And by the way yes I do actually!” I stop ticking her “Girl you better tell me! Come on what's the hot gossip with your fine ass this time.” She starts to blush, aww so cute. “Well let's just say I met this certain someone, you know the usual go get some drinks and end up having some fun later,” she said winking at me. “Oh s**t, yes go get it, girl! You know I'll want to hear about it tomorrow when we work in the morning.” Right when Emily was about to say something the door opens.
