Rosalie eyes Bella with a mixture of envy and pity.
He was always going to find you irresistible, you know.
Bella looks up in surprise and laughs: a wry, disbelieving sound.
A perfect, beautiful vampire finding a plain human irresistible?
After a moment, Bella closes her eyes and nods,
Oh, of course, the blood…
Rosalie rolls her eyes,
Because you are human-
Bella cuts her off,
Yeah, I know human blood tastes better-
Rosalie exhales in frustration, already getting bored with Bella's ignorance.
No, Bella, because you are human. Because you are fragile and changeable and fleeting…Because he could truly lose you.
Somewhere, Rosalie remembers when she was lost to humanity and she turns away with bitter tears stinging her marble heart.
