Chapter Text
I continue to fall through the dark waters. Suddenly I hit the ground hard, and I hear and feel my ankle crack. I scream out in pain and the trees around me shatter like glass. The splinters pierce my skin as I curl up trying to block my vital points. When I compose myself, I slowly raise my head to look around at the damage I had done.
I hear familiar voices shouting my name and flinch.-- Lenny and my father are searching for me. I need to get up and run. Find out where the mysterious lake had dropped me off– I slowly get to my feet, swallowing back more cries.
"Rosa…" they call out.
"You know when we find you, you're going to pay for running." only Lenny's voice can be heard this time.
I limp to the other side of a large tree that had somehow survived my screams.
I sit there whimpering quietly as I examine my clothes and jewelry. –Greece– I blink tears away and try to stand once more but collapse. I swallow another cry.
That's when he appears. A man with gorgeous blue eyes and blonde shoulder length hair appears from the woods.
I whisper "Jax.."
He looks at me confused. "Do we know each other?" He slowly approaches me and kneels down.
I feel a pang. -why does it hurt so much that he doesn't know me? Of he doesn't this is where you meant–
He tilts his head and I whisper "no no. I am Rose"
"Are you -" his question is cut off by the yells of my brother and father.
I whisper "you should go…they'll be upset if they see you talking to me."
"Who are they?" He asks.
I whimper trying to get up again "my father and brother…"
"You're hurt?' He asks
I nod, biting my lip. "Yes but I'll be okay"
He shakes his head and picks me up. "Rosa. I'm going to find you some help."
I sigh softly. He may not remember but he still feels relaxing. I nod.
As he carries me away.
