Okay, here's another Twilight story. The little girl, Elizabeth, in this story is different than my other story, "Elizabeth's Letters To Rosalie". This is written is Rosalie's POV, unless I say otherwise.
Watching From A Distance
Hello, my name is Rosalie Hale, and somehow, my husband, Emmett Cullen, and I, were able to have a beautiful baby girl, Elizabeth Aya Cullen. I have been watching her grow up for many years. This is where it all began…
"Please, Rose?" Nessie begged. "I want to see Jake, and Elizabeth should be able to spend some time with her imprint, too."
"I don't want her anywhere near that mutt." I growled. I watched Nessie's face crumple, and she started to cry. I know I was being a little blunt and harsh, but I didn't want Elizabeth near Seth at all.
"That isn't such a bad idea Rose," Emmett said quietly.
"What. Did. You. Say?" I said, passing Elizabeth to Alice.
"I said, that I think Ness has a point. Elizabeth should be able to see Seth. Besides, Seth wouldn't hurt a flea." Emmett said, completely missing my point.
Jasper put his head in his hands in mock horror, and left the room.
"EMMETT!" I screeched.
"Sorry!" Emmett said, grasping my point.
"But, Aunty Rosie…" Nessie started through her tears.
I cut her off. "…No means NO, Renesmee. Seth shall NOT see Elizabeth since he tags along with your precious Jacob," I sneered.
Nessie ran crying from the room. I could hear every word Jasper said to Nessie, trying to calm her down.
"It's okay, Ness. She's just having a slight…um…" Jasper seemed to search for the right words to say to a ten year old. "…a slight chemical imbalance."
I sighed as Alice passed my daughter to Emmett. Jasper and a frowning Nessie came back into the room from the kitchen.
"A small vacation would be nice, Rosalie." Jasper murmured. "A change of pace."
I glared.
"Jasper has a point," Emmett said. "I agree with Nessie on this one, Rose. I do think that Elizabeth should go see Seth."
That was my breaking point.
"Fine. All of you go have your precious life back in Forks, and Elizabeth and I shall stay here."
"But Rosie…" Emmett started.
"You want another option? Fine, Elizabeth shall live with you guys, and I shall leave. But if that happens, Elizabeth becomes Jasper and Alice's daughter, since you're such a retarded blockhead." I spit.
No one said a word.
"I'll take that as a yes." I said, grabbing my purse, and slammed the front door, walking into the cool Montana night.
Emmett ran out behind me.
"Rose, please. Don't go. No one wants you to go." He begged.
"What else do you want me to do?" I yelled. "I don't want Elizabeth anywhere near that mutt, but apparently you want her around him. So go, it's time you could go back in Forks, and you can have Elizabeth around that dog all day long. I don't' care."
Emmett's eyes grew soft. "Is that what you really want? You want us to move to Forks, and take Elizabeth with us? You want to leave her without a mother?"
I rolled my eyes. "If you knew how to use the two ears on either side of your head, you could have heard that I said that if that is what happened; ALICE and JASPER shall be Elizabeth's PARENTS."
"But…but…" Emmett said. He seemed to be at a loss for words.
"And don't you DARE try and talk me out of this. I disagree with you so far, that I don't believe I should stay here any longer. Good day." I turned on my heel and stalked off, leaving a bewildered Emmett standing behind me.
I heard the sad, quiet click of the door, and even as I walked away, I could hear the entire conversation behind me.
"She's gone." Emmett said quietly. I heard him sink to his knees. "She's really gone."
No one else seemed to be able to say anything. Finally, Alice spoke.
"What was she telling you about? I heard her say Jasper and my name, and the word 'parents.' What did she mean by that, exactly?" Alice said. I could hear in her voice that she didn't want to say those words.
"She wants you and Jasper to be Elizabeth's parents once we reach Forks." He said quietly. He pounded the ground. "God, I'm such an idiot. I can't seem to keep my mouth shut."
Jasper shifted his weight from one foot to the other. "You didn't keep your mouth shut because you believed that she should see the one person that's right for her. You didn't do anything wrong."
I heard the wind whistle past someone multiple times, like someone was being shook.
"That can't help anything, Jasper. What can it help? I stood up, and she walked off. She. Walked. Off. And she won't be coming back anytime soon."
The whistling stopped, and Jasper spoke again. "Emmett, what's done is done. I don't like the outcome either. You can't control the actions of what Rosalie thought. She didn't like it that her daughter was with a wolf, and she did what she thought was best. It was stupid, sure, but you stood up for your daughter. For her future."
Emmett sighed. "Alright, I guess you're right. But don't try to make me change my mind about Rose. I'm going to try to get her back if I can find a chance. Let's go get ready for the move."
Alice nodded, and went upstairs to put my daughter to bed.
I heard rustling, and a window opening. I decided to say one last goodbye to my daughter.
I climbed in through her window, and carefully took her out of her crib. Her eyelids fluttered, but she didn't wake.
"Goodbye, my dear Elizabeth. I shall miss you. I'll see if your real father has changed, and I may come back. But until then, I won't be with you. I'm leaving you in the care of my sister, Alice, and my brother, Jasper. Be good for them. I'll miss you every day." I gently kissed her on her forehead and laid her back down in her crib, and left a note that I had written just seconds before on her bedside table; leaving it for her once she was older.
My dear Elizabeth,
I'm not sure if you remember me….but I am your mother. Rosalie. Have you heard the stories about me? If you have, I'm not sure which ones. But, the real reason I left was because I don't really like the wolves, and I'm not sure if I ever will, but Emmett, your real father, and I, got into a fight over you seeing your imprint, Seth Clearwater.
I might come back. But until then, know that I love you. And that I miss you every single day.
Your mother,
Rosalie Lillian Hale
And with that, I climbed out her window and ran, disappearing into the night.
