*I obviously don't own Twilight. But I do own this. Haha! Please review. :)*

I never thought there will be a time when I would go back to Forks. I hated this inconsequential town. It was from this town and its gloomy, omnipresent shade that I escaped after I graduated from high school.

I stared out of the windows of my car as I waited for the traffic light to turn green. Forks was beautiful, of course; I couldn't deny that. Everything was green: the trees, their trunks covered with moss, their branches hanging with a canopy of it, the ground covered with ferns. Even the air filtered down greenly through the leaves. Forks was too green — an alien planet.

Eventually I made it to my house. The old Cullen mansion. The house was still timeless and beautiful in a graceful way.

I took a deep breath. This is it, I told myself. I knocked on the door three times before someone opened it – Jasper, my dear twin brother. He still looked the same – tall and leonine. His face instantly burst with delight as he hugged me.

"Oh my god, Rose! You're back!" he squealed as he hugged me. "Esme! Rosie's here!"

His embrace showered warmth to my body. I hugged him back tightly; I can't deny the fact that I've missed him so much.

A moment later, Esme and Carlisle emerged from the stairs and paced as fast as they could when they saw me.

"Honey, it's great to see you back!" Esme said sincerely. "Look at you – you haven't changed a bit!"

Esme's comforting voice almost erased every trace of uneasiness in my body. I hugged her and Carlisle. Tears started to run down on my cheeks. Even if they were only my adoptive aunt and uncle, they still loved me as if I were their own.

"Are you finally going to stay here again?" Carlisle asked, stroking my golden hair.

I nodded and smiled. God knows how much I've missed them since I left Forks three years ago.

"Jasper, go get Rose's things from her car. I'll go call Alice and Edward to share with them the good news." Esme said.

Carlisle led me to the sofa and stared at me. "You really haven't changed a bit." His smile turned to a look full of curiosity when his eyes landed on the bump in my belly.

I hesitated and changed the subject. "Where are Alice and Edward?"

"Edward and Bella took their daughter to the park. Alice is in Port Angeles, shopping." His gaze was still focused on my belly. "Rose, is that what I think it is?"

I sighed. "I'll talk about it later, when everybody's here. Edward and Bella already have a daughter?"

Carlisle smiled and nodded. "Yes, Renesmee. We call her Nessie. She is such a darling."

Jasper was back from putting my bags in my old room and was humming something when he approached us. "I still can't believe you're back, Rose. Everything's been kind of sad when you left, especially Alice. She's been dreadful not to have a great shopping partner and cousin." Jasper babbled on excitedly. "And, you'll love Edward's daughter. She's simply amazing."

I smiled at the thought of that. Alice and I have been close in many ways – shopping, for one. She and Jasper have been together for as long as I can remember. And Edward's daughter…I can't wait to see her, too.

Carlisle let me go to my room to unwind and rest before Edward and the others arrive, while Esme and Jasper started to prepare a special dinner for my return.
