《Control (Book 1 of Control Series)》Chapter 24
Advertisement
I know it was early but, I could no longer wait to see my girl. To my surprise when I entered her room she wasn't in the bed. I couldn't help the fear that filled me at the thought that she escaped. However, I quickly squash it when I realize that I locked the door and she couldn't have come out without having the key. I calm down a little with that logic but, it wasn't until I heard the shower running that I fully calmed down.
I saw the bed was messy and I made it up before, sitting on it waiting for my girl to get out the shower. After a few minutes I heard the shower turn off and I waited for her to come out. And waited. And waited. And waited. I'm not a patient man and I won't lie and say I am. Which is why I wanted to slam the door open and demand why she was taking so damn long but, instead I knock. "W-Who is it," she asks and a shiver runs up my spine at her soft voice. I didn't answer and grab the doorknob opening the door. I only opened it a crack when it was slammed shut. By the force I could tell she slammed her body into the door. Sucking my teeth I again turn the nob pushing at the door. "I'm getting dressed," she rushes out and I take a deep breath before, letting go of the doorknob and walk over to her bed sitting on it once again.
Only a few minutes passed before, she poked her head out and I was shocked. Her hair was no longer dark red but, a nice dry brown that hung down her body. Her eyes however were the most shocking. They were so beautiful. A mix of blue and green. I wanted to stare in those eyes longer however, when she fully stepped out I want to say she was equally gorgeous but, I can't because, her clothes were on backwards. I want to laugh but, I carefully kept my face blank. However my feelings must of shown because, she looked down at herself. I waited until, she saw the tag sticking out of her skirt and the reaction I got didn't disappoint me. Her face turned into a bright red and I again waited until, she saw that her shirt was also backwards but she didn't, instead ran into the bathroom going to fix her skirt.

A few seconds passed and I heard a groan and I laughed knowing that she finally realized her shirt was backwards. I waited for her to fix her shirt and expected her to be out soon. However, it took longer than expected and when she came out I knew why. She had put in her brown contacts. Covering her beautiful eyes. "Take them out," I demanded. She raised both of her eyebrows confused. "Your contacts," I say. "Take. Them. Out." She shakes her head and I get up and walk over to her. "If I have to I'll take them out myself," I threaten. "Although it might hurt." She looks at her feet for a few seconds before, craning her neck. Her eyes are filled with fear and I realize how intimidating I must look towering over her while giving her a glare.
I take a deep breath calming myself down and crouch so I'm at eye level. Silence. I'm just about to say something else when she opens her mouth and whispers, "Please don't make me." I frown at the desperation in her voice. For some reason I found myself nodding. "Ok," I say. Right now she seems like a scared animal and if I make the wrong move she'll run. I sigh and slowly stand up feeling relief at the circulation going through my legs.
"You are free to wander around the house," I say. "I have a few things to do and when I get back I'll give you something to eat. After that we're going out." I walk out her room and go to the front door grabbing my keys off the hook get in my car where I drive off to Jared's place. I pick up my phone and dial Dylan's number.

"Meet me at Jared's house it's about Rosaline."
"Wha-"
I hang out and speed over to Jared's place. I need answers. And I want them now.
