Chapter Text
The door swung open and John stormed in. It must have been very important if he interrupted her without asking permission to come in first. Rose hated to be interrupted, she looked at it as some sort of disobeying her. Everyone knew that she always should be treated with great respect. Later he would be punished for the disrespectful behavior.
It was not like she was doing anything in particular this very moment, but she could have been. So for now she would hear him out and teach him a lesson later
'Talk!' Rose ordered him.
John got into a military position and did as he was ordered.
'You wanted to know whenever something was happening in HER life'
Indeed that was true. Rose knew she should let go of Luisa, but she just could not let her go. And it most likely would take a lot of time until it didn't hurt her anymore. She know it was wrong but she couldn't bear the thought that anything would happen to her again. Especially after Luisa had been kidnapped by Rose's own step-mother to hurt Rose. So as a result she kept a few people looking out for her. And she had given the order to inform her immediately.
Rose took a glass of water and took a sip. She didn't want to give away how much she was dying to hear the news. It was better the less people knew how much she cared.
'Apparently she had some relationship with a woman called Susanna Barnett. She works for the police and...' John stopped at this point and looked at Rose's hand with surprise. Rose was angry. Why did he stop? She looked at her hand and saw why. The glass she had drank from a moment ago was broken. It had broken from the pressure under which Rose put it while receiving the news and now she was bleeding. There seemed to be no flinders stuck in her hand so she wrapped a towel around her hand after putting the pieces she was still holding in her hand onto the desk.
She knew this would happen eventually. Luisa wasn't the kind of woman who would stay single just because she could not be with Rose. She could not even be mad at her, considering what Rose had put her though. And Luisa, out of all people, deserved to be happy. Rose truly wished her everything the brunet desired in life. But did it have to some police officer or detective or whatever!? Couldn't it just be another ridicules wrestler? Rose could see why Luisa chose this Susanna. Luisa obviously needed someone she could rely on , someone who wouldn't just disapear like she did.
'Continue, please!' She said trying to act like nothing had just happened or nothing bothered her about what she just learned. John defiantly didn't buy it but he started talking again anyway.
'Well.. We didn't know until they ended things.' At least some good news, Rose thought. She couldn't help but grin.
'And yesterday Luisa contacted Joey. She gave him a message for you.'
'What was it?' Rose interrupted. She probably would have gotten it sooner if she hadn't. But when it came to Luisa she lost all her patience. She needed to know immediately. And even though she really tried to hide her feelings, she had taken a few steps towards John, this action revealed everything. At least John had enough respect to not let show or react on it.
'She said she wants to be with you, that she loves you and that you should sent her donuts if she should wait.'
Now Rose needed to sit down. Well, that was better than she expected. She waved her hand to let John know that he should leave her alone now. There was a lot Rose had to figure out now.
It had been a week and Rose still hadn't figured out anything. She wanted to be with Luisa for sure. But how? She couldn't think of a way or place where they could be together.
Rose looked at the donuts on her desk that she had bought for Luisa a week ago. She really wanted to sent them. To know that Luisa would wait for her until Rose came for her would be like a dream. But dreams tended to be very unrealistic and just wishful thinking. And until Rose hadn't figured out how they could be together it seemed unfair to get Luisa's hopes raised.
Luisa wouldn't go and run away with her. She had made that very clear. And Rose couldn't go back and be a part of the life Luisa let. To many people knew her there who would commit her.
So there was really no place for them. Rose knew that a week ago. But she kept searching for a way. She wanted to talk to Luisa, talk about everything and find a way together.
And while there was no way of being with Luisa, they both needed to find some closure. Even if Rose would just find a way so Luisa could find her needed closure, it would be enough for Rose. But there was no save way to get Luisa another message but to sent her donuts. Yes, this might be the message her heart wanted to send. But however it would be some sort of promise Rose would not be able to keep.
Rose pictured how Luisa was sitting in her suite depressed and lonely waiting for a message from her. A message she never got. It was only a matter of time until the brunet was going to start drinking again. And Rose had to prevent this under any circumstances.
Luisa had found a way to reach out to her. But Rose hadn't yet.
And it was just that moment that the door swung open once again and John stormed in. Rose defiantly needed to teach him better manners. Even if this might be about Luisa again.
'There has been a accident. She is in the hospital.' John gasped, trying to catch his breath and not waiting for permission to talk.
