Welcome back people of Earth. I wasn't planning on updating today but my laptop is being a whore so I thought it would be best to get this up incase something happens to Kola(Yes my laptop is called Kola)
A big thanks to my beta I Have Fingers; who is really ill but still proof read this for me. Thanks Buttercup.
So we all know I own nothing of the Twi saga but I have to tell you again.

"Jasper, does Emmett know?" That's the first thing I heard as I walked in to Rosalie's apartment. She seems a nice girl; she was fucking stunning with legs that went for miles, curves that were hidden beneath baggy clothing. Her roommate on the other hand was totally off her fucking trolley.
"No, it's not my story," was Jasper's reply. What was it that they were keeping from me? I slammed the front door harder then I needed too, just so they would know that I am back.
"Hey, where should I put these?" I asked, dropping Jaspers keys on the table by the door.
"Umm, just put them in Bella's old room for now which is the first door in the left down the hall," she said not actually making eye contact with me.
"So she finally moved out then. I'm surprised Alice hasn't claimed the room as her closet yet. That's the impression I got from you emails," I heard Jazz chuckled as I carried our bags in to some Bella chick's old room. The room was small, with a double bed with bedding already on, so why did the small one go out shopping for it I don't know. There were a few boxes in the corner that has 'phoenix crap' written on them. The room also contained a wardrobe and dresser.
"Hey Em, I'm heading out to the store. I'll be back in a bit," Jasper yelled down the hall at me. Does that mean I'm all alone with Rosalie? Fuck what do I say to her? I heard the front door shut. I pray he isn't too long or that Alice comes back so she can supply some of the conversation, she seems good at that.
I walked back out in to the living area, where Rosalie was still in the kitchen doing what looked like baking.
"Can I get you anything?" she asked without looking at me; again. Either she didn't want to look at me or the floor had a very distracting pattern on it.
"No, I'm okay thanks. Is there anything I can help you with?" I get the feeling she doesn't want me here.
"Oh no it's fine I'm just going to make sugar cookies," There was a long pause, I sat in the couch watching TV; I could hear her clatter about in the kitchen.
"Ow Fuck," There was a loud crash.
"Rosalie, are you okay?" She didn't say anything so I got up from the couch in the living room and took a look.
"I'm fine, I just burnt myself," she had her left hand clasped over her right wrist, there was a braking try and star shaped sugar cookies on the floor.
"Here let me look at that," She didn't step closer to me she extended her wrist out to me. It looked pretty bad a thick stripe of reddish brown lay across her pale skin. I picked up the tea-towel that had been abandoned on the floor and stepped towards the sink, as I took a step closer she shuffled back. Was I really that scary? I ran the towel under the cold water tap and handed it to Rosalie.
"Thank- you," She said, she winced as she placed the wet towel on her arm.
"No problem," I said with a small smile.
Out of nowhere someone came crashing through the door.
"Hey Bitches, I've come to get the last few boxes from my room," My guess it was that Bella girl; she didn't enter the living room she headed right for her old room. "Hey Rose, who's stuff is that in my room?" She asked as she walked in to the kitchen. She was shocked to see me standing there. "Oh Hi,"
"Hi," she was a nice looking girl, long brown hair a bit talker then Alice, but still a hell of a lot shorter then Rosalie.
"Bella, this is my brother Jaspers friend Emmett. Emmett this is one of my best friends and old roommate Bella," Bella gave Rosalie a confused look.
"You have a brother? How did I not know this?" she more calm then Alice was.
"No one ever asked if I had a brother so I never said anything about him. I never see him so I didn't see the point of bring him up in conversation."
"Oh okay. So what your brother just turned up out of the blue?" This Bella chick actually seemed quite cool more mellow then Alice.
"Yeah, something like that. Alice has talked him and Emmett into staying for the holidays,"
"Awesome, so where is he?"
"He went out for more cooking supplies," Both Rosalie and I looked down at the floor that was still coved in crumpled cookies.
"Babe, are you ready to go?" Some guy called from the living room, he had odd bronze hair that pointed in every direction. "So what's going on here and why are there sugar cookies on the floor?"
"Edward, this is Rose's brothers' friend, Emmett,"
"Nice you meet you mate," The guy named Edward said, he reached out to shake my hand.
"Yeah you too,"
"So you have a brother?" He looked at Rosalie; she nodded "Cool, where is he?"
"He's gone to get groceries," Rosalie said, checking her wrist.
"Oh cool well we'll all have to get together while you guys are here," Edward said to me. "Bella, we've got to get going if we're going to get anything done today,"
"Just coming, I can't believe you never told us. Anyway I have to go but we'll talk later," Bella gave Rosalie a hug, and left with her boyfriend.
"What do you want doing with the cookies?" I looked down at the cookies on the floor.
"Uh, I'm not sure, I think it has been longer than 10 seconds, so I don't think the rule counts anymore," she laughed and smiled; this time she actually looked at me. Her eyes are the most beautiful ocean grey.
"I guess you're right. Do you have Aloe Vera cream that you can put on your burn?" I bent down and started to pick up the broken cookies.
"I think so. If I don't, I'm sure Alice will, I swear she has everything," from the brief amount of time I spent with her, Alice did seem like the type to own all sorts of lotions and potions. She left the room to come back a few moments later gently rubbing her wrist.
"Is it okay?" I asked honestly concerned that she was hurt.
"Yeah, nothing too bad; I've marked in worse before," Her words sounded cryptic. I had cleared away the mess and the kitchen was now clear. "Thank-you for clearing that a lot away," She was blushing, wasn't she use to people doing things for her?
"No trouble. After all you are letting me stay with you, you don't even know me. For you all you know I could be a murder or worse," I joked, she looked horrified by my words, didn't see my joke. "I was kidding Rosalie. I'm not as murder, scouts honor," I held three finger up to me face.
"Were you really a boy scout?" she asked, her body language became more relaxed.
"Yes and no. I was there for all about three months till I got bored. However within those three months I did learn about first aid and fires," she laughed again, her laugh was cute almost childlike, but not that annoying child like most adults. The conversation died after that, I didn't know what to say to her. All I know is that I'm all of a sudden very nervous. We were both now sat on the couch.
"So what's your major?" She broke the silence.
"I'm majoring in business; nothing exciting but one day I want to run my own business. How about you?"
"You'll laugh if I tell you,"
"I promise I won't," she looked at me sceptically "Do you need me to honour the scouts again?" she smiled shaking her head at me.
"Okay, if you must know I'm a Mechanical Engineering," She blushed; her cheeks went from a soft peach to a rose pink. "I'm surprised that Jasper didn't tell you, he always found my interest in anything mechanical amusing,"
"I actually didn't know about you until yesterday,"
"Ah, yeah we Hale like to keep secrets," she said in a small voice, her faced turned sad. Little did she know that the McCarthy's like to keep secrets too. We sat in silence for a few moments; it wasn't awkward, just calm.
"So where do you stand on the sibling front?" What do I say? I can't tell her no, like I had with Jasper! I'll have to tell her.
"I…" Just as I go to tell her about my brother, Jasper and Alice came through the front door.
"I think you would sexy as hell a mini skirt," Alice said.
I heard Alice giggle as Jasper replied, "Well I do have the legs for it,"
I was saved by the bell, so to speak as Rosalie now became interested in the conversation her brother and best friend were having. I'm glad; I'm honestly not ready to tell anyone about Alec.
Were you ever in like the Girl scouts or anything like that? I was never went to Brownies (That is like girl scouts for the UK)
