Flashback

I was sitting in the school's cafeteria eating my apple with peanut butter when the school's biggest gossip queen, some refer to her as Jessica Stanley, came and sat right across from me.

"Guess what I heard?"

I looked up and rolled my eyes at the light brown shoulder length hair girl, she was about the same height as Alice, but very much less attractive than her. She had large brown eyes and a very sharp nose. Her mouth was a little too big for her face, but a girl had to have big mouth for all the gossip that she's been spreading. I answered with an exasperated teeny bopper tone.

"Gee golly, IDK, I'm not a mind reader"

Knowing that there was sarcasm in my tone, Jessica exhaled loudly

"I heard that Royce King has been blabbing all around school that he was going to pop your cherry this coming Saturday when you're away with him on his family trip to the San Juan Islands"

I couldn't believe if I heard her correct or not, I almost choke on my half eaten apple.

"Wa… What did you just said?"

She had a tiny smirk, but decided to stop it from forming when she saw that I was dead serious and knew better than to fool around.

"Royce has been telling all the guys that he's going to take your V card. Are you excited?"

"What the fuck kind of question is that?"

I got up and left her staring after me, shocked as if someone had slapped her. I didn't even know Jessica that well, I was thankful that she had enough balls to tell me though. I had just gotten out of the cafeteria heading straight to the girls restroom to toss up my lunch, when I felt a hand grab my elbow, there were a lot of kids in the hallway that I didn't care much to acknowledge, so when I felt someone holding me back I had to jerk it away.

'Hey, hey, what's wrong Rosalie?"

A smoothing voice that I was too familiar with.

I turned around and I had to hug the angel who was standing an inch behind me. I was on the verge of tears.

"Edward, I just heard something that really upset me."

Lifting his hand to smooth down his copper locks

"What did you hear?"

"Jessica told me that Royce has been going around telling people that he's going to take my virtue this weekend."

That's when he let go of me

"That fucker!"

He looked so frustrated, his face muscles were tense and a huge blue vain had risen in the middle of his forehead.

"Where is he now?"

He had turned, but I had to pull him back.

"No, Edward, don't. He's still my boyfriend."

"See I told you he was bad news, I could hear his deviant thoughts from ten miles away."

"Edward, calm down. I can handle this. I just need to get out of here. Take me somewhere please."

He grabbed the same elbow that he had held onto earlier and led me out of the school. It was raining outside so I kind of hesitated, thinking that my hair and makeup would get ruined. Edward felt my hesitancy so he took out a binder from his shoulder bag and lifted it above my head.

"Thanks"

I had to smile at the thought that he knew me so well.

"It's my pleasure Rosebud."

As we got to his shiny new silver Volkswagen, he moved the folder to his right hand while he used his left hand to dig for his car keys to unlock the alarm, he took a while. He couldn't find it in his left pocket so he moved over to his right pocket with his left hand which made him look a little weird with his arm stretch across his torso. I had to laugh.

"Need a little help?"

"Ah, sure."

I reach into his pant pocket at the same moment he patted his shirt pocket to see if he might had left it there. I was fishing around for the keys and mistakenly touched his man goods.

"Oh, ha, if you wanted to play all you had to do was ask."

"I.. I'm sorry I didn't mean to."

While pulling his keys out, I could feel my cheeks turning red. I really didn't mean to touch him there, but I was determined to find his keys and accidentally grazed him in his special spot.

"I was only kidding, I know that you didn't mean to. I just wanted to see you smile."

"Mission accomplished, now open the door, it's freezing out here"

My lips were trembling from the cold and my body wouldn't stop shaking.

"Oh, Yes, sorry."

He clicked on his car alarm and opened the passenger door for me, I climbed into his impeccably clean car and he closed the door for me. It smelled like coconut, the kind that hand car wash companies used. I had placed on my seat belt while he ran over to the driver's side and got in. He started the engine and changed the shift to drive.

"Wait, you better click it or ticket"

I warned him,

He had to chuckle at my motherly tone

"And here I thought that you would have been the death of me and not chastising me for not wearing a seatbelt."

I had to laugh with him.

"You know I wuv you. If you died who would be my best bud slave? I know Alice would not be too keen to take that much punishment."

I had to wink at him to get my point across.

He placed on his seatbelt and started driving. I turned on his radio and pulled his Ipod out of the glove compartment. I pressed play and the most beautiful ballad came on.

"I wanna watch you sleeping peaceful
Resting your heart and your soul
We should never awake without the other
Lying by our side

I wanna learn from the calm with which you
Aim at your dreams and your goals
And I'm sure your stories always will unfold"

I had to close my eyes and exhaled loudly.

"Mmm.. I love this song"

He turned to look at me, he held the gaze over me as if he wanted to tell me something, but nothing came out.

"I try to get you up
But you go down
And you are not okay

I wanna carry you
But you won't get up
It's really killing me
You know it's killing me"

I looked into his eyes, and saw some sort of entrapment behind them. My heart started to sink. It hurt me a lot that Edward was not able to express his thoughts or feelings. He was the same Edward from when we were twelve, there were times when I wanted to scream and beg for him to tell me what's on his mind, but it might have been a little intrusive, if he wanted to let me know, he would have. As if he read my thoughts, he just nodded. It could have been the music he was nodding his head to, but I couldn't decipher.

"I wanna join you sleeping peaceful
Feeling the sun in our room
What a plenty of rays and beaming light
Surely, it does me good

I wanna trust the pulse
In which decay is followed by bloom
And I'm sure any flaw will turn out beautiful"

"Why do you like this song so much?"

I had to look away from him when he had asked and looked out the window pausing.

"Well

It's by Blue foundation

Her voice is just so melodic

I can hear rain drops in the background

It's about the ups and downs of a blossoming relationship. It's something that I can't find the words to explain"

He just stared ahead and I turned to look at him, and then shifted my head to look out of the window.

"I try to get you up
But you go down
And you are not okay

I wanna carry you
But you won't get up
It's really killing me
You know it's killing me"

As the song finished, another song came on that I didn't care enough about. My thoughts drifted back to the crap that Royce had spewed to everyone. I was angry, so angry that I was digging my fingers into the leather by the door handle. Sensing my frustration Edward tapped my shoulder.

"If you need to talk about it, I'm here. I'll listen, but please don't take it out on my car."

That statement made me smile. I released my gripped claws from his leather.

"I don't want to talk about it; I don't even want to think about. I have to talk to Royce, but not yet. I mean, I don't know if those rumors are true, but if they are, what am I gonna do? I love him, but not the kind of love that you think you would give up innocence for."

Edward didn't comment on what I said he was silent, staring straight ahead his fingers gripping tight around the steering wheel. We got to Edwards house after ten minutes of silence. I looked over to my right side to look at my house and as usual, no one was home. Dad was at work, mom was with friends at a book club event and Jasper was still at school. I wonder if he's wondering was I was. I better text him, before he sends out an alert for my disappearance. I pulled out my Iphone and started typing. Edward was busy making sure that he was parking in the right angle in the garage.

"Jazz, I'm with Edward. I'll tell you what happened when you get home"

I was about to place my phone back into my back pocket when I got a text back.

"Okay Alice just told me you left school; we'll talk after school and thank Edward for me."

I replied back

"I will, thnx."

Edward had gotten out of the car and I was about to open my door when he had gotten there first and opened it for me

"You know Ed, I'm an independent woman I can open and close my doors by myself"

I smiled at him.

"I know, but then again I'm always a gentleman and it's a force of habit, it feels weird if I don't."

"Alright bud, I have no complaints, I just wanted you to know"

He in turn smiled and led me through his garage door and up to his living.

The living room was white interior, black leather couches and family portraits. I thought to myself that his house was too clean without a mother figure. I remember I once asked Alice about where their mother was and she said that their mother had died during their birth. I had felt so bad, I didn't know what I would have done if I never got the chance to meet my mother, even worse knowing that I was the cause of her death. I thought about the times when I was younger scrapping my elbow and knees when I fell off my tricycle. My mother came right out because she was watching me through the kitchen window; she came and hugged me right away. Kissing my scraped knees really did make it feel better. The subject of their mother never came up again; I didn't want to tread on water.

Family portraits were hung on the walls, one with Edward and Alice as infants and the other from when they looked to be three years old and Emmett at the age of four. It seemed like there had been new pictures placed up every three years. I've been at their house almost daily, but each time I entered their house it felt as if it was all new to me. We climbed up the stairs to his room. The interior of his room was pale ivory with two large sliding glass doors in which opened to the balcony. One of his walls next to the balcony had a five foot shelf full of books, the other wall had a 5 foot shelf matching the other, but that shelf was filled with CDs that stood next to his entertainment stand facing his bed. Music and literary was what made Edward well Edward. He played the guitar at times, I remember that I would sit in his room for hours listening to him strum his guitar, he was brilliant and he knew it.

Once in, I jumped on the bed and just laid there. Edward at the foot of his bed just chuckled and turned to where his stereo was. He turned on the stereo and then turned towards me.

"What kind of tempo to match your mood?"

"I don't know...Nothing too emo please."

I thought for a second.

"How about Senses Fail?"

"Your wish is my command."

"Damn straight."

I had laughed a bit, only Edward would let me get away things like this.

He turned up the volume a bit, but not too loud. The track that played was "Yellow Angels".

"As the car begins to roll
I smile as I lose control
This weightlessness is such a gift
'Cause gravity has lost its hold
I see the sky and then the ground
Kaleidoscope of light and sound
Catching flashes of my life
Just then the house lights all went out
I want to know myself so bad it hurts
I am a shelf holding unread words"

Edward was making his way to the bed; there he plopped onto his back next to me. I turned slightly to face him and smiled.

"I've said goodbye so many times in my life
I'm surprised it's still so hard for me
To see that I should start living my life
Or I will die unfulfilled and empty"

"Jazz told me to thank you for taking care of me."

"It's nothing. I just don't like to see you like this."

"I know. I just…. I don't know."

The fact that I didn't know what to do or say had frustrated me, maybe I felt betrayed by someone that I thought had adored me, maybe I couldn't handle what other people were saying. How could I let something that Jessica said upset me? How can I let anything or anyone bother me so much? I was Rosalie Hale, I didn't give a fuck what other people thought, but if I didn't then why was it bothering me now? We laid there in silence. The music was like a lullaby making me very drowsy.

"I come to still in the chair
As yellow angels step with care
My spinal cord still sending shocks
But my life's in need of repair
There's got to be more than this
I don't want to just exist
As a hollow house for bones
More alone every minute
Is there a place where I can start again?"

I had turned my body so that I was laying on my right side facing the direction of his closet.

"I'm kind of sleepy; I think I'll take a nap."

"Go ahead, and when you're ready to talk about it, even though I know what it's about. I'm here kay?."

"Thanks bud."

I began to slowly slip into oblivion.

"I've said goodbye so many times in my life
I'm surprised it's still so hard for me
To see that I should start living my life
Or I will die unfulfilled and empty

Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel"

While in slumber I had so many visions. One was someone standing with his back to me. I couldn't make out who it was, but he was a few feet ahead of me, it seemed as if we were in the woods. I could feel raindrops in my hair and there was heavy wind blowing against my skin, it was freezing. He spoke without turning around

"I'm here to protect you Rosalie, you might not know that now, but I'm here. I loved you since the first day I met you. I didn't have the courage to tell you and seeing you with other guys only told me that you didn't want me."

I couldn't make out the voice, it was beautiful yet it had a spark of white noise, very fuzzy, but each word that he had spoken I understood.

"I was made for you. I was made to keep you out of harm. There's going to be changes in your life that will be coming soon, please promise that you wont let that frighten you."

I opened my mouth to ask him questions, but it felt as if it would take all my strength, every word I spoke came out so slow.

"Who are you? Why won't you turn around?"

I walked up to his back reached out to touch him, but he disappeared. I wasn't in the woods any more; I was in my living room. I looked around and there I saw my father. He was sitting in a chair with the most frighten expression on his face. He had a blood trail that ran from the top of his head down his cheeks which ended by his neck.

"Daaadddyy!!"

I had screamed out, but that too came out very slow. I wanted to run to him even though he was only a couple of feet away.

I moved with all of my might, but I felt so much pressure holding me back as if my body would not obey my mind. When I was about to reach for him the ugliest creature came into sight snarling at me, it was the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. The thing had a humans figure, but the skin looked as if it had been in some sort of terrible fire, burnt red skin. It had arms, but they were every long which hung past its knees with short stubby fingers that had three inch finger nails attached. Its legs were bare which had skin that matched the upper part of its body. There was nasty slime coming out of its mouth, I wanted to scream, but as I inhaled the worst stench trapped my mouth it was disgusting and I wanted to gag. I had to pull back, but how was I going to save my dad? The creature crouched in front of him facing me as if he was going to leap at me. That's when I jerked out of my slumber. Not aware of where I was. There was someone else's arm around my waist and a heated body spooning me, I looked around and remembered that I was still at Edwards. I turned around to look at him, who was asleep next to me. He looked like an angel, the loveliest being I've ever seen. I didn't want to wake him, so I slowly place my hand in my back pocket and dug out my phone, it was 5:00PM I had to get home before my mother would call to see where I was. I didn't want to wake Edward so I slowly lifted his arm from my waist and slid off the bed. I bent down and kissed him on his forehead and whispered.

"Thanks Edward for being here for me. I wuv you."

Not sure if he heard, but a smile form on his lips. I exited his room, went down the stairs and opened the door to leave. I made sure I locked his living room door, just in case. With the image of that creature still fresh in my mind. I walked across from the Cullen's lawn to my lawn and into the front door of my house.
