"What If"

What if Edward and Rosalie were a couple when he met Bella? What would have happened to Emmett? What would destiny have in store for our beloved Bella and the Cullen family? Welcome to this alternate world. I hope you enjoy the adventure.

Edward's POV, 1935

With any luck Rosalie will take to this new guy, and I can stop with this farce of a relationship. She doesn't really love me; she just wants me because I'm the first guy who hasn't become completely enamored with her. Carlisle and Esme are the only reasons I keep this charade going. They want so much for me to be happy, for Rosalie to be my mate, for us to have what they do.

Unfortunately, I have never felt that way about anyone, much less Rosalie. She means well most of the time, but can't help but hear her thoughts, and they are all about herself. She is still enraged by the event that led to her "transformation," but she's also angry that I don't dote on her like she thinks I should. I do really try, but it's hard to be the doting, loving suitor when you know the girl is petty and selfish.

At least there is a connection between her and this new guy. He thinks she is an angel. Ha! If he only knew what she plans to do to those involved in the event that left her so broken that Carlisle's only options were to save her or turn her into one of us…lucky me.

She seems to be attracted to him, but every time she thinks of him her eyes and thoughts flash to me. Ha! Part of her wants to make me jealous, and the other part just wants to be with this new guy. With any luck, I'll be free from the princess within the week.

I know it's short, but there's much more to come…
