She returned his embrace, holding onto him tightly and burying her face in his neck. She muttered things like "I should've known," and "I'm so stupid." But even being with Tyler - especially being in his arms - made her feel better.

He rubbed her back, kissing her hair, murmuring. "It's over now, baby. Ya don't gotta worry 'bout him anymore. You got me."

"You...you're my best friend, Tyler. I'm so glad I have you back in my life," she said, squeezing him just a bit tighter.

He sighed, stroking a hand through her curls. "I'll be your best friend, sweetheart. But Rosie, ya oughta know I love ya."

No, she didn't want to deal with that right now. There were so many emotions and thoughts jumbled around in her head, she wasn't sure what was even going on.
"He went to the store, just quickly to get some popcorn for our movie night. He left his phone by accident. Not five minutes after he left, he got a text. It was right next to me, it was instinct, really. I'm so used to looking at a phone when it lights up, so I looked at his. And it was from Maggie. And it said 'when can I see you again?' So I answered, and I know I shouldn't have, but I did, and I said 'when was the last time I saw you?' and she replied back 'Yesterday...but it's been far too long since I've seen you naked...' And then he came home, and I threw the ring at him and I left."
Rose really wasn't sure why she just told him that story.

Tyler led her over to the couch, sitting her down. "He's a bastard, sweetheart. And this Maggie chicks sounds like a slut."

Rose brought her knees up to her chest, folding her arms atop them and burying her face. She used to do that all the time when she was younger, especially when she was upset.
"Can I stay here?" she asked, her voice muffled. She couldn't think of anywhere else to go. The weather was too bad to drive to the ranch, and the rest of her friends either lived with their boyfriends, didn't have room, or both.

He nodded, kissing her hair. "Wouldn't want ya anywhere else, Sugar." He nuzzled her gently, arm wrapped around her, trying to make her feel better.
He couldn't believe any man would give this girl up, not when he knew how amazing she was.

After a few silent minutes, Rose lifted her head. "I just wanna go to bed."

He nodded and stood up. Without saying anything, he lifted her into his arms, carrying her to his bed.

She lifted the covers, burrowing underneath them. She was extremely glad she'd been wearing a t-shirt and yoga pants for movie night.

He crawled in beside her. "D'ya mind if I stay?" He didn't want to make her uncomfortable again.

She shook her head, turning to face him, scooting as close to him as she possibly could.

He held her, pressing light kisses to her face and hair. "I'm so sorry this happened to ya, Rosie." Though he wasn't sorry she was no lounger with Douche Face Michael.

She didn't say anything; she just lay there, eyes closed, reveling in the feel of his kisses. Then she lifted her face and pressed her lips to his chin.
