Chapter 2: First Metting

Great, the first day of school is here. Why can't I be home for another week or two? But no life is too cruel. I woke up that morning and stared at the ceiling asking why holidays go so quickly when I remembered today was School Production Sign up Day and Auditions were later today as well. That cheered me up! I got out of bed so fast, it was incredible. I raced down the stairs and into the kitchen. Esme, my mum greeted me.

'Good morning sweetie' said my mother, Esme. And should I say, my single mother whom the mailman is crushing on. Lol, My twin brother Jasper, my sister Bella and I laugh about that all the time, mom thinks it's cute. But we all know she is crushing on that Doctor Whatshisname.

Doctor Carlisle Cullen is about 39 years old and has two sons, Emmett McCarty who for some reason goes by his deceased mother's name and Edward Cullen. He also has a daughter called Alice. Emmett's the same age as I am; he's an 18 year old, big, muscular hunk of a guy who is absolutely gorgeous. Edward is the same age as my sister Bella. And Alice is also the same age as me and Jasper.

'Good morning Mom, how's your crush lately?' I say, I always tease her about her infatuation with Carlisle.

'Rose, don't be silly. He is not my crush, ok?' she always replied. Yeh Yeh, cause it's not that obvious. God she is in some serious denial.

I had breakfast and drove my BMW M3 convertible (did I mention it's red? Hot colour huh?) to school, Jasper in the passenger seat and Bella in the back. As I got out of the car, I suddenly got a hot flush. Why do you say? Because a sexy young man just parked into the car park across from me who goes by the name Emmett McCarty. Plucking my courage back up, I succeeded in walking though the school front doors without a hint of discreet. I was really proud of myself. I then ran to the Notice Board for Production sign up. As I was signing my name on the board for an audition for the play which I found out was going to be 'Romeo and Juliet', my favourite love story of all time, a godlike voice came from behind me.

'Hey' it said, as I turned to see Emmett standing behind me.

"Rosalie, right?' he said.

'Yeah um...Rose actually' I managed to say.

'Oh uh, Rose um… could you write my name up on the board for me?' he said which surprised me.

'Sure though, Emmett shouldn't you belong on the football field instead of a stage?' I said, not realising I sounded ignorant and stereotyped him, God could I be anymore bitchier.

'Uh yeh it's just I really want to get a scholarship this year and they told me I had to participate in a co curricular group or project.' He said, not sounding offended, phew. 'So I chose the school play which I thought might be fun. Secretly I've always been a fan of Shakespeare. My father is very fond of him.'

'Oh ok, um... I've got to go... somewhere' I said awkwardly. I didn't know what to say to this hotness of a man.

'Oh, then I'll see you at auditions, Rosa...sorry Rose' he said politely. The sound of my name coming off his lips was like a dream. I can't believe I was talking to Emmett McCarty!

Later in the Afternoon;

All the auditionees were gathered in the theatre and chatting wildly while I warmed up my voice, using some techniques I knew. One by one the students got booted off the stage and criticised. Gee, Mrs Claremont is getting feistier every year. Then it was my turn, I walked up to the stage and climbed the stairs. My heart was hammering like a jack hammer in my chest. As I stood on the stage facing the audience, I saw Emmett sitting in the back row smiling at me. I looked away and told myself to focus. I could not get distracted, too much was at stake.

'Rosalie Hale, may I ask what you are presenting us with today?' she said.

'Yes, I will be singing a song for the musical Les Miserables called 'On my Own'.' I said. I could feel Emmett's eyes watching me as I sat down at the piano and began to play as I sang;

(B/N: Just wanted to say that RoseHathaway15 sang this song at school and she was AMAZING!!)

'On my own, pretending he's beside me.
All alone, walk with him 'til morning.
Without him, I feel his arms around me.
And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me.
In the rain, the pavement shines like silver.
All the lights are misty in the river.
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight and all I see is him and me forever and forever.
And I know it's only in my mind, that I'm talking to myself and not to him.
And although I know that he is blind still I say there's a way for us.
I love him but when the night is over, he is gone.
The river's just a river.
Without him, the world around me changes, the trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers.
I love him but every day I'm lonely.
All my life I've only been pretending.
Without me, his world will go on turning, the world is full of happiness that I have never known.
I love him, I love him, I love him...
But only on my own...'

I finished and the applause deafened me. I looked to see Emmett shouting, 'Go Rose, Whooo!!!' my heart literally performed somersaults and cartwheels in my chest. The applause died down as I walked off the stage.

'Miss Hale, wait, come back. Everyone be quiet. Miss Hale, you have an extraordinary talent, well done!' she said. 'Emmett McCarty, you're up.' Everyone went silent. As I took a seat at the end of the front row, Emmett walked past me. At the same time we acknowledged each other. I said 'Good Luck' and he said 'That was amazing, well done!' I blushed and he chuckled. I internally cursed the family gene that caused me to blush, my sister and I had the same problem, she did it more often however. He stood on the stage and looked straight at me. God, why does he have to be so god damn hot!? Ok girl, calm down, your Rosalie Hale, poker face girl, poker face.

'Ok, Emmett, how are you going to entertain us today?' Mrs Claremont said.

'I'm going to be singing a song called The Middle, it's not really a theatre song but... it's one of my favourite songs.' he said as he picked up an electric guitar from side stage and tuned it.

He began strumming on the guitar and a few seconds later the 'God' began to sing.

Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything
everything will be alright (alright).
Hey, you know they're all the same.
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything
(everything) will be alright (alright).
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything
(everything) will be alright (alright).
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything
(everything) will be alright (alright).
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything
(everything) will be alright (alright).

As soon as he ended the song, the applause rose. I clapped fiercely, he was AMAZING!

'Emmett McCarty, wow, wow, wow! I never knew you could sing.' Mrs Claremont said. I was speechless. I had no idea he could sing. Actually no one here knew he could sing. How could he keep that from us? He walked down the steps and over to me.

'That was really good; I never knew you could sing.' I said.

'Yeh, apparently I can.' he said and then added 'You're not too bad yourself' Wow, I love Emmett's compliments, what a gentlemen.

'Ah thanks. So I'll see you around.' I said more confidently than before. That's it girl, make him work for it.

'Yeh and hopefully we'll be working together for the school play. That'll be fun.' he said meaning every word. I swooned.

'Yeh, it will.' Omg, did he just say that he would like to spend time with me? Shut up, Rose!!! Breathe and don't get over excited!!! Ok... ok.... I am calm.

'So... I have to go but I'll see you 'round.' he said to me as he walked out. I leaned against the wall and sighed, the God that is Emmett McCarty.

.................

As I drove home, I was awfully quiet and my siblings knew something was up, I was surprised they hadn't bothered me yet. But I couldn't help wondering what Emmett meant when he said that it'll be fun working together for the school play. Did it mean that he liked me or he wants to be friends…or more? Shut up! Look at yourself Rose.
