Kiss from a Rose

Well, if I don't have any way to differentiate these two attributes, there's no reason to overthink this. I guess I'll pick B, because why not? Again, normally I would try to justify my decision in some way, but there's no real way to do that in this situation. Let's just hope this one isn't too bad.

New Attribute Selected

THE ONE CONSISTENCY

That sounds... not too bad. "Consistency" is a good word to see, or at least I think it is. It's become clear to me now that part of what makes Rose's identity so difficult to deal with is that she's a little too all-over-the-place. Maybe having something that stays consistent throughout her erratic behavior will be helpful, even if it is just one thing. Well, I shouldn't celebrate too soon. Let me pull up her profile and see what this actual does first.

THE ONE CONSISTENCY

The target will be completely infatuated with the user, to the point of outright obsession. The target will try to show their love and devotion to the user using whatever method is most appropriate based on their current fetish, though they will never seriously harm themselves or another person.

Wait, why does it need to specify that last part? What did I just do to Rose? I'm not sure if I like the sound of this. Especially the word "obsession." I don't think I want the Queen of Randomness to be obsessed with me. Rose is cute, but I don't know that I can handle 100% of her attention.

I look up from the screen to see that Rose is staring directly at me. At first, I panic, since I'm blatantly holding the remote out in the open. I quickly stuff it in my pocket, but I already know it's too late. There's no way she didn't see it. I look back up at her to see her gaze is still locked on me. As I stare back, I notice a really weird twinkle in her eyes that I've never seen before. It's honestly a little off-putting. Does this have something to do with this new attribute? I would assume so, but it still seems really weird.

All of a sudden, Rose takes a step forward. And then another. And another. She doesn't say a word the entire time, just silently walking over to me with that strange look. As she approaches, I begin to wonder something: did she even notice the remote? She looked right at me as I was using it, and yet, it feels like it didn't even register in her mind. Speaking of her mind, what could possibly be going on in that thing right now?

"Rose? Are you-"

Before I can get another word out, Rose jumps up and grabs the back of my head. With a yank, she pulls my face toward hers and our lips meet. As soon as they do, Rose wastes no time wrapping her arms around me and exploring my mouth with her tongue. I've made out with quite a few women at this point, but none of them have ever been quite like this. This might be the most passionate kiss I've ever experienced. At least, passionate on her side. I'm still too confused to really kiss back. In fact, I try to pull away, but Rose's grip holds me in place, **** to keep tasting me.

After multiple straight minutes of Rose sticking her tongue down my throat, I'm finally able to push her away, though she still ends up in my arms as I do so. As I hold her, she breaths heavily, and I can feel the warmth radiating from her body. Despite that, she never breaks eye contact.

"What was that for?" I ask.

"I... um... I just... Can I be honest with you, Matt?" Rose asks right back.

"Uh, I guess."

"I think I'm in love you," the little redhead says in a breathy tone.

Excuse me? I barely know this girl, and now she says she's in love with me? I know the remote said she would be infatuated with me, but I wasn't expecting her to go from 0 to 100. I mean, this is a lot. Even the way she stares into my eyes is too intense. Did I make a mistake? Should I have chosen A instead? How was I supposed to know this would happen? And I suppose I didn't see what the other option was, so there's no way to know if that one would be better or worse than this. It's probably safe to say that whatever it was, it would have also been intense. Still, I don't know if I like this.

"Actually, no. That's not right," Rose correct herself. "I know I love you. You're the most amazing person in the whole world. Promise me you'll never leave my side again."

Okay, I definitely don't like that. Rose attempts to kiss me again, but I manage to dodge this time. I let go of her and create some distance between the two of us.

"Now hold on a second, Rose. We don't know anything about each other," I try to tell her.

"That's okay. We have the rest of our lives to learn all of that stuff. Right now, all I need to know is that we were made for each other," Rose responds as she once again tries to approach me.

"Wait, wait, wait. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but we can't spend every moment together. I still have to go out and live my life," I say, which makes Rose frown. She thinks for a second.

"Fine. You need your space sometimes. I understand that. One day, I'm sure I can change your mind about that, though. Until then, I promise I'll always be thinking of you while you're gone," She says as she backs me into a corner. "Right now though, I need you, Matt. Please... let's make love."

I nearly **** on my own saliva when she says that. I think I might have actually made this girl crazy. She was weird before, but this is on a whole different level. I won't lie, it is a little sexy for her to be this **** for me, but it's also just as unnerving. I also realize that I still need to deal with the issue crawling around on the kitchen floor.

"I... I need to go check on my mom..." I stutter.

"Are you going to fuck her?" Rose asks out of nowhere.

"What?!" I mean, she's right, I was, but how did she come to that conclusion?

"What about that girl you were with at the restaurant when we met? Are you fucking her? Didn't you say you have sisters? What about them? And I've seen a lot of hot girls that go to your school. Do you like any of them?" Rose fires off in rapid succession.

My god. I feel like my brain is about to explode. How am I supposed to answer any of those questions?

"Um... well..." I take a breath. It's probably best if I rip the bandage off now. I don't want to know what this version of Rose would do if she thought I was "cheating" on her. Thankfully, the remote said she won't hurt anyone. I see now why that was an important addendum. "Listen, Rose. I'm not exactly a one-woman kind of guy."

I brace for what I expect to be an explosion of emotions. After waiting for a moment, I realize that the room is silent. I slowly look back at Rose, only to see her smiling. What the hell?

"That's okay," is all she says in response.

"I... wait, it is?" I ask in disbelief.

"Of course. I just want you to be happy. If that means you want to have sex with other women, I don't mind. Even if that includes your own family. I'm not worried. You want to know why? Because we're soulmates. No matter what happens, I'll always belong to you, and you'll always belong to me..."

"Uh... yeah... right..."

I feel a shiver run up my spine. Well, at least she's doesn't seem to care about me sleeping around. Things would have gotten a LOT more difficult if she did. I'm still not sure if I'll be able to handle her being like this all the time, but at least I can take solace in that fact. That being said, I probably shouldn't tell her that Violet and I are dating. Just to be safe.

In the half-second that I wasn't paying attention, Rose managed to once again close the distance between us. However, this time, she grabs at my clothing and begins trying to pull it all off.

"What are you doing?" I ask her.

"I can't wait anymore! I tried being patient while we talked, but I need to see your body! I want to see every inch of you!" She desperately cries out.

Oh, that's right. I almost forgot about Rose's fetish stuff. She's in exhibitionism mode, so she loves it when people are naked. And now that these fetishes are focused on me, she probably can't stand the thought of the two of us not being naked together. Well, I guess I don't mind being nude in my own home, so I let her strip me down. Once I'm completely exposed, she takes a moment to soak in the sight, lightly tracing her fingers around various parts of my body.

"You look so good, baby. We should be naked like this all the time, don't you think?" Rose asks with a big smile. Even despite all the insanity, I can't help but chuckle at her enthusiasm. "Now, why don't we go get your mom and treat her like the bitch she is? After all, the only thing hotter than two naked bodies pilled on top of each other... is three."

Huh. Maybe this new Rose won't be so bad after all. Well, maybe...
