Don't own a thing.
Rosalie.
"Rosalie?" Bella breathed.
The gorgeous blonde vampire turned her head to glance at Bella. When she met Bella's eyes her own went wide with shock. For once she was speechless, a series of sputtering coughs coming from her throat. Bella, in shock, walked up to the front of the room and handed her slip of paper to the teacher. He smiled, obviously dazzled and motioned for her to take the seat beside Rosalie.
"Everyone this is Bella Armstrong," the teacher said, "Rosalie would you mind catching her up on what we've been doing so far?"
Rosalie nodded silently.
"Bella is that really you?" Rosalie whispered.
"Yes," Bella said plainly.
"Bella, I know I was never nice to you or even really cared about you but I just have to tell you that..." she started.
"It doesn't matter now Rosalie. I moved on a long time ago," Bella cut her off and opened up her textbook.
"No, I have to say this. I can't just let everything fall apart again. I was a total bitch to you and that was inexcusable. You showed us what being a family really was. When we left everything just changed. Nothing was the same."
"It doesn't matter anymore," Bella said softly.
"Quit saying that! It does matter! Now that you're back maybe Edward will..." Rosalie started.
"Rosalie, listen to me. I don't want to see Edward. I don't want to get in the way anymore. When I ... died.... It was my second chance and now that I know your family is here I'll be leaving. I won't be a problem anymore," Bella said.
"I don't think you understand what happened when we left," Rosalie replied.
"No, I don't think you know what the hell I went through!" Bella hissed.
"Girls is there a problem?" the teacher asked.
"No," they both answered at the same time.
"Rosalie, I finally got my life back and I'm not going to go messing that up now," Bella sighed, "You guys were fine before I came along and messed things up. Now you all should move on. It's only healthy. Breakdowns aren't fun at all."
"You never messed anything up. Despite what I might have said back then I know that I was wrong. You have no idea what it's been like without you. Just come and see everyone. I know you don't want to see Edward but wouldn't you like to at least maybe see Alice again?" Rosalie persisted, "Please?"
"I'll think about it Rosalie," Bella sighed, "But no promises. I don't want to give people false hopes."
"We just want to see you again Bella. Talk to you. Maybe meet your family?" Rosalie said, "It would mean a lot to us."
"Fine, I'll think about it," Bella replied, "Is everyone else here at school?"
"Well," Rosalie started, "Everyone but Edward. He's working at the hospital in town. He hasn't gone back to high school since we left so you won't see him unless you want to I swear. Carlisle works there too and Esme is at home. But everyone else is here. Can't you just come and sit with us at lunch?"
"I'll think about it Rosalie, all right?" she replied.
"That's all I ask," Rosalie smiled, "By the way, just call me Rose."
Bella nodded. They fell into an awkward silence for the remainder of the class. As the bell rang a curious look crossed Rosalie's face.
"What did you mean about breakdowns?" she asked.
Bella shook her head, "Long story."
"Well I'll see you in the caf," Rose said, giving her a quick hug, "And Bella... I hope you change your mind about seeing Edward. I know he would want to see you again."
Bella snorted and rolled her eyes as she left the classroom. Why would he ever want to see her again? She had just been a distraction. What was the point of trying to rekindle something that had never held any value to him? Was she really willing to go through all those painful feeling again?
New update soon.
