I never asked to be the sister of Sookie Stackhouse. It was something that was out of my control. I don't regret it though, being her sister. I wouldn't want anyone else to be. She was my twin, my other half so to speak. She understood me in a way no others could. Something that made us both so in common, was our gifts. Sookie calls hers a 'disability'. I call mine a 'gift'. Sookie could read minds, I however could read minds, feel emotions and was telekinetic. I had accepted that I was something more than just human, while Sookie clung to humanity like a life line. She wanted to be normal, so she never practiced her gift. I practiced my gift and expanded it. I loved my gifts and used them to my advantage the most that I could. People instinctively knew that we were different, and of course most people poked fun at us, but a simple threat from me and they stopped for the time being. I loved my sister dearly, and was extremely protective, as she was of me.

Even though Sookie and I were twins, we look nothing alike. She had beautiful, medium length, light blonde hair; big, brown eyes and full, pink lips. With an average height stature, rockin' curves and large breasts, she looked very similar to our mother. Me, however, I couldn't say the same. I was born differently, as an albino. I had elbow length, snow white hair that cascaded down my back in large barrel curls. My pale skin was very similar to a vampires, often getting me mistaken as one. My eyes were a light pink, that either held ice or warmth. I was short, only reaching 5'2" on a good day. I had curves like Sookie, but had wide hips, making them more dramatic. I had a nice, plump, firm arse and a little more than a handful of breasts. Overall, both Sookie and I had been blessed with amazing genes. Jason as well. He was ruggedly handsome in an absentminded kind of way. He looked a lot like Momma too, but had a stature like Daddy. Jason didn't really come around that much, we were lucky to get even a phone call once a week. That's how he's always been though and we've learned to accept it.

I had recently left Bon Temps, Louisiana and took a vacation to Arizona for some relaxing and sight seeing. I loved traveling and had been to nearly every state in the U.S. Even though I was out of state, I still stayed in contact with Sookie and was aware that she entered a relationship with a vampire, Bill Compton. When I heard this, I immediately arranged myself to head back home. I needed to meet this guy, he had to be something special if Sookie would date him. Sookie and I had never entered a long term relationship, it was disturbing being able to know every single thing about your partner. So, for her to be like this with Bill, well, it was something pretty major. I was pretty excited about meeting this guy, vampire or not. I personally, had nothing against vampires, they had never wronged me so, who was I to judge?

I currently only had a few minutes before I was finally home with Sookie and Gran and it was turning nightfall quite quickly. I had called Gran and she told me that Sookie was working this afternoon and wouldn't be home until a little after dark. I hadn't told Sook that I would be home yet, so I was going to surprise her.

When I finally pulled up to Gran's in my nice Ford F150 truck, I hopped out, slung my bag over my shoulder and ran into the house. I burst open the door.

"I'm home!" I yelled with my arms up in the air and dropped my bag on the floor.

"Oh! Rose! You're home!" I was swept up into a warm, comforting hug that was Gran. I giggled lightly and wrapped my arms around her.

"Tell me, baby doll, how was Arizona? Hot? Desert like? Meet any cute guys out there? Oh! Tell me over some iced tea!" Gran released me and hustled into the kitchen. I chuckled softly, that was Gran, always excited and ever the gossiper. I loved her all the same though. I skipped into the kitchen and plopped down on the seat and propped my feet up on the table. That earned me a gentle whack on the back of the head from a wooden spoon.

"Get your feet of the table, girl! I swear, you turn more into your brother everyday!" Gran admonished me. I laughed and set me feet down while graciously accepting my iced tea. Gran sat across from me with her own drink. She leaned on the table.

"So.." She said anxiously. I grinned behind my glass as I took a sip.

"Yess?" She rolled her eyes.

"How was it?" I chuckled and set my drink down.

"Oh, Gran, it was beautiful. The sights, the people, everything, it was all just so captivating." I drawled in my light southern accent.

"Rosabelle, you find everything fascinating." This time I rolled my eyes and said,

"I know, Gran. It's not a bad thing!" Gran leaned back in her chair while chuckling.

"Of course not, my dear. You find the beauty in all things and study that. It's a wonderful thing, dearie. You're a wonderful observer and know more about things than you let on." I blushed slightly and laughed.

"Gran, you're too nice. How've things been in Bon Temps since I left?" Gran frowned and crossed her arms. I instantly became worried.

"Well, not too good, darlin. Maudette Pickens and Dawn Green have been murdered. Everyone's been thinkin it's either Jason or a vampire." I hopped up out of my chair.

"Jason?! Everyone knows he wouldn't do something like this! Not to be rude or nothing, but, he's a few cookies short of a dozen." Gran nodded along with me.

"I know darlin. That's the same thing I said. Things just aren't looking good for him though. It's most of that, wrong place at the wrong time, kinda stuff. Now sit down, rantin and ravein ain't gonna help nothing." I huffed and sat back down, just as I saw headlights through the window and saw Sookie's little, old, beat up, yellow car. I heard her slam her door shut and sprint to the front door. She must have seen my truck.

"Rosie!" She squealed and ran into the kitchen, then proceeded to practically tackle me to the ground in a bear hug. I just managed to catch onto the table to stop us from tippling over. I then wrapped my arms around her and squeezed her.

"Hey, Sook." I could feel her euphoria at me being home. I giggled as she squeezed me tighter.

"I'm so happy that you're back!"

"Suga' I've only been gone for a couple weeks at most!" I laughed exasperatedly. She giggled and let me go.

"It feels like a lot longer!" Sookie then looked at the clock and spazzed out.

"Oh my goodness! I have to get ready!" I raised my eyebrow, which Gran mimicked.

"And where are you going?" She chuckled nervously.

"Well, Bill is going to be here in about 30 minutes to pick me up and take me to Fangtasia and ask about Dawn and Maudette." I stood up and started walking towards the steps.

"Good, it should only take me about, 20 minutes to get ready."

"Whoa! Whoa! What do you think you are doing?" I turned around, set my hand on my hips, and jutted my chin out.

"I'm going with you. If you think for one minute that I'm letting you go to a vampire bar, with a guy you just recently met, then you're out of your mind!" I walked towards her and set my hands on her shoulders, while looking into her eyes deeply.

"Sook, you're my sister, my twin. I couldn't live with myself if anything happened to you and I could've done somethin to prevent it." I felt Sookie's acceptance of my words. I grinned and kissed her forehead and started walking back up the stairs.

"Just don't do anything to embarrass me tonight!" Sook yelled at me. I laughed and threw over my shoulder as I towed my bag up the steps.

"I can't make a promise I might not be able to keep!" I hurried up the steps to my room and set my bag on my bed and turned to my closet. I stood there, deep in thought and stroked my chin.

"Well, what would one wear to a vampire bar?"
