We Can Make it Work
Chapter 1
Rosabella's P.O.V
“I’m almost down. Calm down Bella.” He said wrapping his arms around my shoulders and leading me down another isle for the tenth time.
“Well hurry it up. We have to leave tomorrow at six and I’m not even halfway done packing.” I replied as my phone vibrated in my hand. I looked down and saw I had a new group message with all the girls.
Bethey: What time is everyone arriving?
Sky: eight tomorrow night.
Rose: hopefully eleven tomorrow morning, but Harry is taking too long to find a flipping comforter :/
Cel: noon tomorrow, unless my dad decides to drive ten miles per hour.
Reb: same, noon tomorrow.
“What about this one?” Harry asked me holding up an orange one that he’s held up five times already.
“That’s perfect. Now can we go?” I asked him and he nodded his head as he put the comforter in the cart. After we checked out he drove us back to our houses, which were next to each other.
“You, Gem, your mom, and Robin are still coming over for movie night right?” I asked him as I helped him carry his bags inside.
“Of course. I’m want to spend time with Sophie and Blake before we leave.” He said talking about my younger siblings.
“And I’m sure they want to spend as much time with you as possible.” I replied throwing the bags I was carrying onto his bed.
“See ya in a hour?” he asked me.
“Yup. Don’t forget the ice cream.” I said looking at him sternly.
“Cookies and Cream?” he asked me.
“Is there any other kind?” I asked before walking out of his room and his house, then over to my house. When I walked in the door Sophie, my four year old little sister, ran and hid behind my legs.
“What’s going on Soph?” I asked looking down at her.
“Blake is chasing me. Help me sissy.” She said referring to our ten year old brother.
“I gotcha. Is Ryan here yet?” I asked her and she shook her head as I picked her up and carried her into my room with me. I closed and locked my door before setting her on my bed and turning on the TV.
“Whatcha want to watch?” I asked her.
“Authur!” she shouted and I nodded my head turning to PBS kids. I walked over to my desk and turned on my laptop before sitting back on my bed with it. I logged onto my facebook and went through my feed.
“Rosa look!” Sophie yelled pointing to the TV screen. I looked up to see D.W. throwing one of her famous fits and laughed. It amazes me that Authur was on when Ryan and I were younger and that it’s still on for Sophie to watch.
“She’s silly.” Sophie said before turning her attention back to the screen and I went back to scrolling through my feed. One post caught my attention majorly.
Madison Miller: Hoping to catch the eye and heart of a certain H.S this year. It will happen no mater what.
Madison is one of the most popular girls at school and her parent’s make large donations to the school each year. Ever since I could remember she has had a crush on Harry , but he hasn’t felt the same back. My phone began to play ‘Rather Be’ by Clean Bandit, which meant Rebel was calling me.
“What’s up Reb?” I asked when I answered it.
“Have you seen Madison’s post?” she asked me. The girls are the only ones who know I have had a massive crush on Harry since I was 12 and he was 14.
“Yeah. There is no way on in this freaking world that I could compete with that.” I said sighing.
“You’re right, because you have no competition when it comes to Harry. You’ve known each other for twelve years. If he hasn’t fallen for you by now he is completely blind and stupid.” Rebel said.
“He obviously hasn’t though. I feel so stupid.” I replied.
“He’s the stupid one. Don’t worry about him or anyone. Let’s change the subject. How many games does Blake have this year?” she asked me
“A lot. So glad I love only an hour away from school. You guys are of course welcome to come like always.” I said.
“Sounds like a deal. I’m so excited to get to school and see the others.” She replied.
“Me too. I got to go. Blake is now banging on my door.” I said.
“Ok talk to you later miss innocent.” She said with laughter in her voice.
“By miss rebel.” I said before hanging up. I walked over to the door where my little brother was banging and opened it.
“What do you want?” I asked looking down at him.
“Mom and dad told me to get you and Soph, because Ry is here.” He said before walking off. I turned off my TV and scooped my little sister into my arms and walked into the dinning room.
“Look my two favorite sisters.” Ryan said as I gave him a hug then handed Sophie to him.
“We’re your only sisters.” I replied.
“I know, that is why you’re my favorite. What time is the Styles/Twist clan coming over?” he asked as Sophie played with his hair.
“They should be here in an hour. Soo who exactly is coming with Harry and I tomorrow?” I asked leaning against the island.
“Well Ryan is taking you, but he also has to take Sophie since I have to take Blake to the doctors and your dad has to work.” My mom said and I nodded my head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE NEXT DAY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“I’m ready to go, Rosa!” Ryan yelled up the stairs at me. I put my phone charger in my purse and then grabbed two of my suitcases and struggled to walk down the stairs with them. When I got to the bottom my dad came and took them from me.
“All the your other bags and boxes are already in the car. Harry, Gemma, Anne, and Robin are outside with your mom and siblings. Let’s go buttercup.” He said before we walked out. When we got outside Harry and Gemma were leaning against Harry’s car, with everyone else surrounding them.
“Look who it is!” Gemma said noticing my dad and I.
“It’s me.” I said tossing my bags into the trunk along with all my other things. I turned and was embraced in a hug by Anne.
“Have a good first day. I will be calling both you and Harry asking how it went and I suspect an outstanding report.” She told me sternly.
“Got it.” I said before I went on to hug Robin, my mom, Blake, and my dad.
“So you guys are following us, correct?” Ryan asked Gemma.
“Yup. See you there then.” She said before we all got in the car. I sat in the back seat with Sophie and Ryan began to drive.
“I’m going to miss you Rosa.” Sophie said over the sound of the radio. I slightly frowned before pulling her into a side seated hug.
“I’m going to miss you too Sophie.” I said kissing her cheek. The rest of the ride was full of all three of us singing along loudly to the radio and dancing. When we got to the school Gemma and Harry pulled into the parking spot next to me.
“So whose room are we moving into first?” Gemma asked me.
“We can help Rose first. Let’s do this team!” Harry yelled causing multiple families to look at us and Sophie to laugh. I opened the truck and handed Sophie my small makeup case. Ryan got three of my bags, I got two, Harry got three, and Gemma got one and then one of my boxes.
“God what all do you have in here?” Harry asked me as we finally approached the door to my room. I took out my key that I got from our dorm manager.
“Things I need now shut up and go in.” I said after stepping back and picking up the bags I set down. When I walked in I hurried to the bed by the window and threw my bags on the bed.
“How many bags does Harry have?” Ryan asked Gemma after setting down my bags.
“He has four total bags and then his two comforters and a box.” Gemma spoke up.
“Ok. I’ll finish helping Rosa bring up her other four boxes then we’ll come check on you guys.” Ryan said as Harry picked Sophie up.
“Sounds like a plan.” Harry said before we all walked out the door.
