Chapter 2:

Rosalie and Emmett

Rosalie POV

"Hey Alice" I shouted as the door shut behind her.

She looked wrapped in her thoughts, that or having another daydream. Although I've been thinking lately that her daydreams always seem to come true. Whilst looking in her direction I saw myself in the mirror in the hall. My Beautiful long, blonde hair was shiny and exuberant it's no wonder I got two jobs today and maybe one could lead to me being in ELLE. Looking at myself is something I do a lot of the time, once my eyes fix on a reflection of me I can't stop looking. Some people would say it's unhealthy to think so highly of yourself but when you're a model it helps, all those other girls are struggling to lose their weight whereas I don't worry about it and then I lose the pounds anyway from my vigorous training regime.

"Alice!" I shouted again as she entered the kitchen moving my gaze from my face to hers. Her small features looked more pronounced as if they had been changed by something or someone.

"Oh Hey Rose." She had been pulled out her thoughts but a smile still lingered on her perfect lips. If only she was taller she could be a model I thought. Alice really was pretty, we all are. Bella is in the modelling industry with me, but is on the verge of becoming anorexic she's that obsessed but she gets paid well and was used in three major fashion shows last year.

"So who is he?" I asked knowing it was a guy that had made my Alice so happy. All the years I've known her she hasn't been out with a guy at all, whereas I have a different one every week I get rid before they get too attached.

"Who?" She asked all innocently poking her head around the fridge looking for something with carbs in to eat probably.

"I know you have met a guy." I said smiling at her. "So who is he?" I asked for the second time. Alice was very private in her life but I knew she wouldn't be able to resist telling me all about it.

"Well...His name is Mr Jasper Whitlock." She had moved to sit next to me on the breakfast bar and I moved the five magazines I was staring at looking for inspiration I suppose.

"Oooh." I laughed he sounded like he was not from New York. "How did you meet him?" I wondered if it was one of those 'dreams' she has.

"In the diner, the one a couple of blocks away. Then we walked-."

"Wait, what were you doing in a diner?" I asked stopping her mid sentence.

"Well I had a dream." Alice said. Oh I guessed as much but it still amazes me. I caught my reflection again and stared in wonder.

"Rose, Rose!!" Alice was waving her hand in front of my face. "Do you want to hear the rest of the story or not?" She asked rolling her eyes at my vanity.

"Yes, okay, carry on." I said, moving my eyes back to her face.

"Well I saw him in my dream and I felt something so I thought I should see who he was. We talked for a bit then we went to the park. The sun was setting and it...it...it was just sooooo romantic. We talked and talked and then-." I stopped her again.

"What? What?" I was jumping up and down in my seat.

"We kissed." She said looking happy.

"O.M.G, What kind of kiss?" I said wanting to know all the details.

"Look I've got to get ready we're going out to dinner but I will bring him to the club later okay?" I nodded once and she disappeared off to get changed.

Alice POV

I was panicking I didn't know what to wear. The blue dress or the gold one or the purple with the black bow. I ran out to the hall and ran up to Rose.

"What dress?" I asked looking around for Bella it would be better to get two peoples opinions.

"The purple one I think and you can wear those new Louis Vuitton shoes." I thought about it and agreed, now where was Bella?

"Where's Bella?" I asked jumping up and down.

"In her room." She replied nodding towards her door. I danced over to her room and knocked twice.

"Come in." She was stood at her mirror trying a dress on.

"Hey Bells, Quick question what dress?" I asked moving my head every time I said a new word.

She looked at me for a second deliberating. I loved this about Bella normally today it was annoying I only had a half hour to get ready.

"The purple one with the black bow and wear your-." I cut her off.

"New Louis Vuitton shoes yeah, Thanks." I danced out her room at top speed and back into my room to get my hair and make-up done.

Jasper POV

I walked up to her building and found the button for her apartment. My finger hovered for a second; I was so nervous my last girlfriend was Maria and with her well it didn't end well. I pressed the button.

"Hey it's Jasper Whitlock." I said trying to sound more confident than I felt.

"Hi Jasper come right up, this is Rosalie, Alice's roommate." Oh cool I thought. I walked up to the elevator and waited. Some of the nervousness had vanished as I heard Rosalie's confident voice and my natural spark was shining through. I hadn't felt this alive since before I was the victim of hate crimes due to my father's cruel attack. I checked my reflection once more in the elevator to check that I was suitable for dinner. I looked at my face it seemed different, changed by something or someone perhaps. Alice had changed me even in the short amount of time that I had known her.

I knocked on the apartment door number 146 and waited. The door opened almost immediately and revealed a brunette, tall and very pretty though she had nothing on Alice.

"Hi, I'm Jasper," I said holding out my hand. She shook it and made a gesture for me to come in. Bella seemed very nice, one of those down to earth girls.

"I'm Bella; Alice will be out in a second. Have a seat if you wish," She said leading me to the kitchen. I sat myself on the breakfast counter. Another girl walked in Rosalie, Blond, tall, the exact opposite of Bella though they seemed to get on well enough. Rosalie seemed to be the exact girl I had thought of when I thought about what men saw as beauty. Not that she wasn't pretty, she was stunning but for me she wasn't Alice. Right at that moment I heard a door shut somewhere in the apartment and I turned to the entrance of the kitchen as Alice walked through.

She looked beautiful; her hair was now smooth and straight. The dress she wore brought out her skin tone and beauty. She was perfect and I was speechless.

"Jasper," She said seeing me. Her face lit up and I was stunned again. I only saw her, the entire room slipped away.

"Alice, you look...perfect," I said finally using the word I had used to describe her earlier. I stood up and walked over and kissed her hand. Rosalie and Bella were stood together whispering about us but I didn't care.

"Thank you." She said looking down. I recovered from my speechlessness and turned to Rosalie and Bella.

"Right, we better get going. It was very nice to meet you two," I said to them both.

"You two," They said as we were walking to the door hand in hand.

Rosalie POV

"O.M.G, Bella he was so cute." I said the moment after the door shut behind them.

"I know he was Rose. Alice looked so gorgeous. Did you notice that she looked so much happier today?" Bella replied. Thinking about others again.

"Yeah she did. They are coming to the club later. Maybe we will meet our true loves tonight it seems the day for it don't you think." I Looked at Bella; we got on so well these days. We used to be at each other's throats all the time. Well I was at hers but you know how it is she was so pretty and I was jealous but now I appreciate her beauty as much as I do mine.

"That's a bit over the top, I would be happy if it was this week or month or year. God I'm sick of men thinking I'm for rental you know one night stands." She stood up pacing. She needed to start eating properly; I'm starting to worry about her.

"I know what you mean. I need to find that guy that I want to spend the rest of my life with. I'm sick of being with a different guy every week. You know what it's like though Bells, if you don't feel like there is a future then there is no point." This was the most deep me and Bella had ever spoken to each other. It was nice to see we had a level of understanding.

"Yeah. I get it Rose. Hey are you getting ready? What time we going?" She asked, Bella wasn't one for long conversations.

"Yeah I thought we should go at nine." I replied my brain already deciding what to wear.

"Cool she replied so I'll be ready in an hour or so. So we will have time to get there for nine."

I nodded at her and walked out the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water on my way. Bella left to and headed for the shower. I was going to wear my red dress the new one I got for just this occasion. I headed for the bathroom opposite my room and started the hour process of getting ready to go out.

Bella POV

I was sat on the couch in the living room waiting for Rose. I looked at the time; it was ten to nine she better hurry up. I walked to hall and up to the closest full length mirror. In the reflection I saw myself but maybe not as others did. I thought I looked a bit chubby still but maybe I'm just imagining things. My Dark Blue dress brought out the rose colour in my cheeks, which is what I wanted. I looked good I thought, but still not good enough to compete with Rose. At that moment I heard her door shut and I turned from the mirror to see the image of pure beauty standing before me. Great, I thought nobody is going to even look at me with Rose in that beautiful red dress stood next to me. I mean I know I'm pretty, I'm a model but looking at her how can I even compete.

"How do I look?" She asked. I placed a smile on my face and looked her up and down.

"You look perfect, as usual." I said smiling at her whilst she did a turn. The dress was deep red and brought out the light blonde in her hair.

"You look great too, I love that colour on you." She smiled at me giving me the confidence boost I needed.

"We going?" I asked a bounce in my step now, excited for the night.

"Sure." We grabbed our purses and walked out the door.

The club was only a couple of blocks away but as we got onto the street we realised how cold it was. We couldn't take the car, as we wanted to drink tonight so we braved the cold weather.

"Hey Rose." I said halfway there we were walking down an alleyway. A shortcut Rose had said.

"What's up?" She detected the slight panic in my voice.

"Don't look but the guys behind us were the same ones from back up the street." I explained. I was panicking slightly.

"It could just be a coincidence." She told me and so I swallowed my fears.

"You two." A deep voice shouted. Oh Shit I thought. Rose spun round facing the men shouting us.

"What you want?" She asked, as if she was bored but I could sense that it was an act.

"How about you lovely ladies come and join us for some 'drinks'." I could hear the inverted commas placed around drink. I doubted that was what they wanted to do.

"Leave us alone, Alright?" I said slightly pissed at the situation but still scared of what they wanted to do with us.

"How about no." They had reached us now and they were backing us up the wall. I didn't know what to do but as the man that did all the speaking stroked my cheeks my instincts took over and I brought my knee up in between his legs. He shouted out in pain and was on the floor. I saw rose look at me, looking impressed and I saw her do the same to the guy stroking his hand up her leg.

There were three more guys I didn't know what to do panic was settling in and I froze unable to move. I heard a voice, a deep booming voice and running footsteps.

"Oi, leave these two ladies alone." He said as he punched one guy that threatened to hit him. I looked at this stranger he very muscular and even in the dark you could see how good looking he was and strong too. I looked at Rose and she was looking in amazement at our rescuer. The men ran down the alleyway the same way they had come leaving us to face the stranger.

"Are you two alright?" He asked coming closer, though I could see he couldn't take his eyes off Rosalie.

"Yeah were fine." Rosalie replied stepping closer to him. "Thank you."

"Oh, by the way I'm Emmett."
