CHAPTER 4

I'm going on a date with Emmett. Perfect. Strike again Miss beautiful me. Lets really rub this in Leah's face. 'I'm so evil' I thought to myself, but there again who isn't. I slept like sleeping beauty that night-everything was perfect. No. Better than perfect.

Charlie was never usually there at breakfast-he worked long hours, so I was very surprised to see him sat reading the newspaper with his feet on the table.

"Hi dad," I said as I hunted around for a bowl.

"Hi," he mumbled. That's strange, Charlie was usually happy when I was around.

"What's up?" I questioned him. I knew I was late for school but school would have to wait, something was up and I could tell that it was bad.

"Your mum wants you to move back in with her, she misses you." My heart sank. Just as I had got everything perfect here she would just have to ruin it.

"But I want to stay. Please Charlie, talk to her, I want to live her in Forks with you."

"Thanks kid, but I don't think that'll work, she seems pretty determined."

Great. When my mum was determined about something she would always get her own way no matter who she had to destroy to get to it. I guess I was like her in that way. I was silent for a moment. This time I would win.

"I'll ring her tonight. This time she's not getting her own way. It was her choice to leave and so she must suffer the consequences. Anyway, she hasn't wanted to see me for 8 years so why's she bothered now?"

"I know. That's what's bothering me."

"Charlie, she is not going to make me leave and that's final. I'm staying here whether you like it or not."

"Thanks, kiddo." Ugh why did he always call me that, I'm not a kid any longer.

We ate the rest of our breakfast in silence before I looked at the clock and realised how late I really was. Damn I'd already missed first lesson.

"Dad, I'm really late, if school rings tell them I had a doctor's appointment."

"Sure. Sure."

"Bye." I kissed him on the cheek before running out the door and climbing into my car.

I managed to sneak into maths without Mr Bates noticing that I was 10 minutes late. Emmett looked over and winked at me. I smiled back. Jasper, who was sat between us shook his head and winked at Emmett who laughed in return. That gained us all a detention. I few seconds later, Jasper nudged me.

"From Emmett" he whispered.

Rose,

Sorry I got you a detention, I'll make up for it. Promise.

Emmett x

My heart skipped a beat. He had put a kiss. Jasper laughed, he had obviously read the note over my shoulder.

Emmett,

Its fine, honestly. One detention won't do me any harm. Just wondering, how do you plan to make it up to me?
Rose x

I passed Jasper the note and told him to pass it on. I saw him peek at it as he handed it to Emmett. So nosey.

Jasper,

Stop being sooooo nosey.

Rose

I pushed it to him as the lesson ended.

"Nosey, is my middle name," He said as he walked out of the room. I laughed. Typical, you could tell he was related to Emmett.

I walked out the classroom and Emmett put his arm around me waist and turned me round. I felt his lips touch mine before he stiffened and pulled away.

"I must stop doing that." He said. "If Leah finds out."

"Break up with her" I suggested hopefully.

"Can't." he said glumly. "I can't hurt her like Sam did."

"Sam? Whose Sam?"

"You must know who Sam is. Everyone does." I still was confused so he continued.

"He's the heart throb of the school, all the girls liked him and most still do even after what he did to poor Leah."

"And that was?"

"Leah was…" He stopped. I guess that meant Leah was coming. "I'll tell you soon."

"Fine." I walked off towards my car.
