Because I Love You- Part 1

(Rosalie POV)

"Here comes Emmett," Jasper announced. We were sitting in the cafeteria after our last class. Jasper and I had English Literature together. Emmett loped across the cafeteria and sat next to me.

"Hey babe," he said lightly as he swung his arm over my shoulder. I smiled at him and laughed. But today my heart really was not into our routines.

"Alice and Edward," Jasper noted as they entered the cafeteria.

"I hate not being able to play PE normally," Emmett complained as Alice and Edward joined us.

"It's too dangerous," Edward said, as if on cue. He looked up at me quizzically and I sighed, resting my head on Emmett's chest. Edward shook his head, looking away.

"What's up babe?" Emmett asked, looking confused. Poor darling Emmett. He would never understand these emotions. Maybe I should talk to Jasper. Edward looked as confused at Emmett.

"Nothing," I smiled at them and Emmett grinned, before turning to Jasper.

"Have you seen how much homework we are getting from Biology today?" Emmett demanded. Jasper nodded in sympathy. Everything was always the same around here. We were probably going to be stuck here forever, the whole world seemed to be frozen.
"We can only wish," Edward offered. I wished he would get out of my head. He shrugged.

"I don't understand what your problem is," Edward explained. Good. Emmett sighed and turned to Edward.

"Nothing. Don't you listen?" Emmett rolled his eyes.

"Because everyone always means exactly as they say," Jasper said sarcastically.

"Exactly," Emmett smiled, glad Jasper was agreeing. Alice giggled. Classic Emmett. Emmett was so happy with being here, with everything staying the same. I need more than this. I need to do something, not just sit around waiting for something to happen.

"Ah," Edward said, nodding. I smiled a little. Emmett, Jasper, and Alice began discussing the Biology homework, and I tuned out easily.

You understand, don't you Edward?

"Of course," Edward nodded.

I just cannot help but to want to do something with my life!

"Well, then do something," Edward shrugged as if it were that easy.

But what? What can I do here?

"You'll be out of here in a little while. Go to university and do something," Edward offered. Edward loved attending university and taking new careers. The rest of us rather to take time off and relax.

It needs to be now, Edward. Now, as in today.

"Why?" Edward asked.

Because if I do not today, then I never will.

"Oh," Edward looked a little surprised. I shrugged.

It is just so hard to do the right thing.

"Which is why you never do," Edward teased. Edward and I got on so well, with out unity over our wishes to be normal, though Edward was not as obsessed as I was. I could never believe Alice's visions of us fighting because he was in love with some girl. It seemed so impossible.

I mean, for Emmett. We always work together so well, but he is so happy staying the same and I need to change. I just need something of my own to do, something to work for myself. Is that so much? I cannot be like this forever.

"You shouldn't have to be. He just wants you to be happy," Edward said. I nodded. That much I knew. The bell rang loud and clear. I sighed and stood. Alice and I had Economics now.

Thanks, Edward.

"Anytime," he smiled. Emmett kissed my cheek brightly and smiled at me. How could I ever hurt such a beautiful person?

"God, Rosalie, enough with the appearance already, you know you see deeper than that," Edward rolled his eyes, and he and Emmett left to Spanish class. I followed Alice numbly to Economics. I needed a change. Getting what I wanted was easy, all I needed was the way.
