The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 97

"Hello co-captain!" I love this version of Rosic. I love it when she is bubbly and playful. It makes me feel like the world is such a beautiful place and maybe it is not as bad as people think. But maybe it's bad for them because they don't have someone like Rosie in their life. To be honest, it's hard to find somebody as beautiful as her because she is simply one of a kind. "Hey beautiful," I say, giving her a quick hug. Fall outfits look amazing on her. She is wearing a maroon long sleeved dress with a beige jacket on. I love everything about her outfit. No, scratch that. I love everything about Rosalie Leia Kensington. "When do you have practice today?" she asks as we both sit on the grass in one of the campus gardens. It's already noon. She had a class at ten, but I have just arrived because I have a class at twelve-thirty. I now know her schedule by heart. She has another class today at one and I afterwards, she usually gets a takeout. "From seven,"

"I want to give you something," she says as she hands me the gift bag she has with her. I thought it was for somebody else. The fact that Rosie got me a gift makes my heart dance in my chest. "I know this is small, but I wanted to get you something since you're now the co-captain." Why does she look nervous? She could give me a used pen and I would love it.

I dig my hand inside the bag and take out what looks like a hoodie. I unfold it and chuckle when I see the whole thing. It's a blue and white hoodie with my number on it. That's not the best part. "Best co-captain ever" is written in bold across the chest. "I'm in love with this, cupcake," I say, pulling her for a side hug again.

"There's something else in the bag." She looks at me with those glittering blue eyes of hers. They are going to be the death of me without even knowing.

I look inside the bag and find a perfume bottle. My favorite perfume. How did Chapter 97

she know? Does she know its scent?

"I called Naomi and asked her to tell me what your favorite perfume is," she answers my thoughts. I love how considerate she is. She didn't want to get me anything. She wanted to make sure that she would get me something I would love. "Aren't you the best?" I playfully poke her cute little nose.

"I am." She grins, flipping her hair and I chuckle at how ridiculously cute she
