Rosalie P.O.V.

My name is Rosalie Hale. My siblings are Emmett and Alice Cullen, I was adopted into the Cullen family. Esme and Carlisle Cullen are my foster parents, they're all just like a big family to me. I forget I was adopted sometimes even. When I was little I was put into an adoptive home by my parents, I was four as I recall. My brother was also put up for adoption. They cried and cried, saying they couldn't keep us. At first I wondered what could ever make my mommy and daddy so sad, but then i realized later they had never really wanted us. We were accidents and they'd tried to take care of us, but they couldn't. I don't hate them, I thank them. Sometimes I do miss them, I even wonder what it'd be like if we were still home, eating breakfast in the morning and leave for school around 7, and I wonder how many friends we'd have, who they'd be. But then I realize I love the family I have now and let go of those silly little daydreams. But, anyway, we were in that home, or shelter, for a few years. Until Dr. Cullen came. See I was around seven by then, so was Jasper, my brother. We were twins. Dr. Cullen came in, looked around, saying hi to all of us children. And he looked down at me and smiled. He asked my name and suddenly, I'm being taken from Jasper and being put into this car. I was taken to the Cullen mansion and I met Alice and Emmett who were the same age as Jasper and I. I told them of Jasper and our parents and how we were twins. They were friendly and we became close and Carlisle soon made me feel at home and I loved how Esme got my style right away. She decorated my room in a light blue color and I loved it. Carlisle and Esme were there for me at my worst of times and I didn't always treat them like I appreciated them.

I loved the sun, and I loved hanging out with friends. I liked the fact that it was almost always so hot that you could go around town wearing shorts and tank tops. I loved getting sun-tans and swimming. I liked surfing and having fun. I had more guyfriends than girlfriends. The guys were more laid-back and less dramatic. My bestfriend had to be Alice. I would be lost without my cellphone or my ipod, and I'm cocky. I don't like fake people and I've only had two boyfriends. Matt Roken was a tall, brunette boy. He'd been my friend for awhile and he asked me out one day. I decided to give him a chance but I can say, I actually regret that. He was a pig, he was disgusting. He tried to get me to have sex with him everytime we were alone. Finally I decided to just break it off. He wasn't upset but he never talked to me again. The next guy was Keith McBride. A guy who I hadn't known very long. We'd been on spring break, Alice,Emmett and I, and we spent the day at the beach. I met a tall, blonde, muscular guy there, Keith I'd learned later. We started going out, but it ended up more as a fling because I soon found out, all he ever wanted was sex, too.

But I knew I was threw with those type of guys. I didn't need any guy for that matter, but I didn't know what would happen in the summer we moved to La Push, Washington from Miami.

"But, mom, why? Why couldn't we go to some other, more sunny place?"I sighed and my mom shook her head.

"For the last time, Rose, your dad wasn't transferred to another sunny state. That's just how it was."She spoke, softly, even though I was being considerably harsh. They weren't moving us here on purpose, Carlisle just got transferred to Forks and they'd been told La Push was the place with the beach. They liked the beach and they knew we loved the beach, too.

-2 hours later-

We arrived to a beautiful house, it was kinda small, but it was beautiful all the same. It had a balcony and a back porch, it also had a side porch. The side porch and balcony were looking toward the beach and the back porch lead to a big yard with a volleyball net. I looked in the shed and found my surf board already put up neatly. Esme and Carlisle had been down here yesterday. I guess they put it up. I shrugged and left the shed, I went up to my room and it was the one on the far left upstairs, the door on the right toward the balcony. Emmett, Alice and I shared the balcony, because each room led to it. I grabbed my bathing suit, a blue two piece, and changed into it, with a pair of shorts over the bottoms.

I grabbed my phone and my ipod. I put my phone in my pocket and put my headphones in and turned my music up. I made sure my phone was on vibrate and walked down to the beach. It was pretty sunny out, not too sunny, Forks and La Push never really had much sun but today was okay. I sat in the sand near to waterline and laid my legs out, letting the water hit them. I don't know how long I sat there but I know it was a pretty long time, before someone came up and tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around, pulled my headphones out, and I see a girl prettier than me, she smiled and sat beside me.

"Hey, My names Leah Clearwater. You are?"She asked. She seemed so honest and the type to forgive almost anybody. She looked so happy. She wore a black bikini and looked like she'd just been swimming. She seemed nice and real. Like I'd known a lot of fake people back in Miami, but her...she seemed so real, like nothing about her could be fake. I felt like even though I'd just met her, I could trust her with anything. She looked like the so innocent and sweet type, but something told me she did have a bitchy side. And I don't think I wanted to see that side of her...
