Rose's Pov

The big blow out that we were expecting was a lot less explosive than we all anticipated. Carlisle just wanted to prove that he was the leader. Klaus was being an arrogant ass and the alpha and while he's got a fine sexy ass this macho crap is annoying.

"If you need me I'll be in my room," I announced as I stormed off upstairs.

"Rose," Klaus' voice followed me but I ignored it.

I can't deal with all that macho madness bullshit. I flopped on my king sized bed, turned on my IPod, and tuned out the world around me for awhile. My playlist was a mixture of genres but my favorite would be country. I don't know what it is about that particular genre but it speaks to me. And most-if not all-the songs in that genre tell a story. Sadness, love, happiness, etc. It all tells a story and I love that. A few of the songs remind me so much of my past life, my human life with Emmett.

"Babe, I'm home," my fiancé, Emmett, announced as he was taking his coat off. "What's for dinner? Mmm, it smells good in here and it's making my mouth water."

"You'll find out soon enough. Just go in the living room and watch your game, dinner will be done shortly," I instructed.

An hour later I finished dinner and called Emmett into the dining room.

"Mmmm, this is better than it smells," Emmett commented once he'd taken a bite, savoring the taste.

"Why, thank you, my handsome hunk," I chuckled.

We were halfway through dinner when we heard a noise and then the front door being blown to pieces. I screamed as I was knocked across the room before everything went black.

As I came out of my daydream, I could hear Klaus start up the stairs, only to be stopped by Edward.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," he chuckled.

"And just why not?" Klaus asked. I could hear the sneer in his voice.

"Because Rosalie is extremely pissed off right now." Edward replied.

"And how would you know that?"

"Because I can hear the thoughts of everyone around me. Yes, even you. And, while you may think that we're all insignificant, I can assure you that we aren't. Especially Alice and myself." Edward haughtily explained.

"Edward, knock it off!" I yelled. "And, Klaus, please just stay there. I just need some time to calm down."

"We need to talk, Rose," Klaus yelled back.

"Not if you don't leave me to calm down," I pushed out through clenched teeth.

Everything became quiet after that and I was left to my own devices. I still can't believe Klaus, someone I don't know, asked me to marry him just to get me out of this house.

An hour or so later, once I'd calmed down, I opened my door to head down stairs but was surprised at the sight of Klaus. "Were you out here the whole time?"

"About bloody time," he smirked. "We need to talk."

I opened the door further to allow him to step through.

"So…" I urged him to speak.

"I know we just met but what I asked you earlier…"

"To be your wife?"

"Yeah, to be my wife. I meant it-I mean it. I want us to be married. We are meant to be."

"Klaus, I never said I didn't want to marry you."

"But you never said you did, either."

"I didn't know what to say. I wanted to come up here to think, to calm down and think."

"Did you come to a conclusion?"

I made a decision and before I was able to answer Klaus, Alice squealed like a little school girl which made me chuckle.

"What was that about?" Klaus questioned.

"Alice can see the future," I explained. "When I made my decision Alice saw it."

"What does that mean?" Klaus asked, confused.

"It means I'm saying yes to your proposal. Let's do it tomorrow," I smiled. "Where's my rock?"

Klaus reached into his pocket and pulled out a ring box. He got down on one knee before opening the lid.

Hearing the hinge of the box, Emmett yelled, "Rose is my ex-wife, she means it when she says 'rock'."

I yelled, "Will you all shut up? I'm trying to hear what the man has to say to me!"

I chuckled before saying, "I was told by someone that I would find the love of my life here in this rainy little town, but I didn't believe him. But, being the optimist I am..." he winked at me then, "I decided to make a stop along the way and picked up this little bauble. I didn't want to be unprepared, you see. Rosalie Hale, would you please tell me tell me that you'll make me the happiest vampire-werewolf hybrid in existence and marry me?"

I looked at the contents of the box before looking into his eyes and said, "That's some rock."

"That's still not an answer," he shot back.

I chuckled as I gave him my answer, "Of course I'll marry you, Klaus, you arrogant ass."

"No, that's Edward." he deadpanned.

"Hey, that's my mate you're talking about," Alice hollered from downstairs.

"But am I wrong?" Klaus laughed.

"Well, no. But I'm the only one allowed to say so."

The house filled with laughter.

"You're going to fit in with my family just fine," I smirked before kissing his lips.

"I'm Niklaus Mikaelson, I fit in anywhere," he said and shrugged.
