Hello, once again! This is my favorite chapter in Twilight, which is why I'm typing it. Thank you everyone SO much for all the reviews! I have really been working hard on this chapter, but I've gotten a bad case of writer's block so it might not be that good. I hope you enjoy this one, and remember to review!
Special thanks to everyone who reviewed! It means so much to Kami and I!
Chapter 9: Theory
Rosalie's POV
"And then, I decided it didn't matter,"
-Twilight 184:9
"Rosalie," started Alice, looking me square in the eye,
"Alice," I started, giving her the same look. I was down to my last bit of clothing, a short black skirt and a grey sleeveless top, and Alice had met the same fate. She only had a black sleeveless top and grey pants. This was stupid, but I was going to get my stuff back if it was the last thing I did.
So there we stood, Alice on one end of the long hallway, and I on the other. I heard Jasper and Emmett walking upstairs, they stopped, staring at us. Alice turned her head around to face the two,
"What are you looking at?" I snapped, I was sick of this game; it needed to end, now.
The two boys, just stood there, staring like they had just been shot, Alice glared at Jasper,
"Well?"
The two boys turned around and headed back downstairs, leaving Alice and I without a word. They better stay down there too. Alice turned back to me,
"Rose, surrender, just give me my stuff back," Alice snapped, turning to me, I stuck up my nose, we stood there, just glaring at each other as I heard two screams from downstairs echo from the house, Emmett and Jasper's screams. Emmett really couldn't live without me, could he?
"Same to you! You started it after all!" I replied, this had to stop, I was going to make sure of it by getting my stuff back
Now I could hear someone else coming up the stairs, Esme. She was looking toward the ground, probably deep in thought. She finally came to the top of the stairs, and paused,
"Guys, what's going on? Poor Emmett and Jasper were half scared to death, they saw me and ran out side screaming bloody murder," Esme looked up seeing Alice and I staring each other down,
"Oh," she said, I didn't even look at her,
"Uh, why don't you guys go shopping?" I didn't move, I was getting Alice first,
"I'll give you the shiny credit card!" she said pulling out a shiny golden credit card. Oh how it sparkled! I looked at Alice, who looked back at me,
"Race you to the car," she said grinning,
"You're on," Alice raced downstairs, grabbing the credit card, I was close on her heels,
"I drive!" I shouted jumping into my car. We passed Emmett and Jasper, who were glaring like we were ghosts. I poked Alice and she looked at me, eyes wide,
"What's up with them?" I asked jabbing my thumb toward the two shocked looking boys. She shrugged her shoulders, looking as confused as I was,
"I don't know, boys, there, well, strange," she said, and I couldn't agree more, boys were so strange sometimes. I giggled a little, turning the car on and hitting the gas petal, the car zoomed off. I looked back toward the boys, who were still staring, where we had left them. Alice smiled, and we headed toward the nearest mall.
---------
"Okay, so how many stores do we have left?" Alice asked, looking at me, we were trying to hit fifty clothing stores in four hours. We had already been shopping for 3 and 1/2 hours, lets see, we started on the down the street, then moved up toward the street to the left,
"Hmm, about six," I said pushing my shopping cart next to me as I sat down, it looked like one of those shopping carts you see in cartoons that are stacked feet high, my poor car was going to have to carry all of it home. Alice paused, by the look in her eye; she was having a vision, again. Gosh those things got annoying.
"Rosalie, Bella, she's going to find out today, about it- our secret," Alice said, looking down at the ground, the human was going to find out our secret, TODAY! And she would be human? I swallowed a lump of anger. Just how to ruin a good few hours, bring up Bella and start talking about her, cause everything is ALL about Bella! Stupid human! She could AT LEAST go off and die somewhere, and save us the trouble.
Alice's cell phone beeped a familiar tone and it flew to her ear,
"Hi Esme," she said, she paused, listening for Esme's response,
"Yes, Rose and I are having loads of fun!" She said happily giving me a wink. Yes, fun until Alice had another stupid vision about Bella who in a few minutes is probably going to know our secret. Which brings me back to the feeling that I want to rip my hair out from all this stupid, foolish, annoying Bella business! Oh so you see Esme, everything is all just happy-dorky here, next I think I'll go fly on pony, and then slid down a rainbow. Stupid visions, stupid, shiny Volvo owner, and stupid, foolish, annoying, human!
I think the rest of the Cullens might be out to get me; all of them, waiting till I finally self-destruct and explode. Maybe my missing clothing was just the beginning of my undoing. Maybe next Bella will move in, so there will never be a Bella break. I can see it now, all of them laughing insanely as I pull my hair out. And Emmett, well if Bella touches Emmett I will make sure she never breathes again!
"Really? Oh, I guess we'll come home, now then," she said, pouting, "Okay, bye Esme," she hung up, and I raised an eyebrow,
"We have to go home, Esme is worried, she said Emmett and Jasper haven't move from their spots since we left," She said looking as shocked as I felt. Boy's really were weird, can't live with them, they can't live without you, even when your Vampire proof lock fails, they still need you. Ugh, men.
Wait a sec, Bella better not be waiting there at the house….
---------
As I pulled up in the drive, I discovered Esme was right, Jasper and Emmett hadn't moved, they still stood there, shocked. I climbed out of the car, and walked up to Emmett, kissing him lightly on the cheek,
"I'm back! Thanks for waiting for me!" I smiled at him, picking up a few shopping bags, and started to carry them inside. As long as I can act sweet I can pull Emmett on my side, then maybe I could work on Alice to see that Bella is really an evil human, but Alice will be tricky, very tricky.
"Emmett, could you carry in my bags for me," I pouted, "Please?" Emmett looked at me stunned,
"Sure, Rose," he said, snapping out of his trance and picking up a few bags, strange.
I left the bags in the living room, Emmett would get them for me, I headed up stairs, and then I realized,
"Esme!" I called, Esme appeared around the corner,
"Where's Edward?" I asked, looking at Esme,
"Oh, he went to go see Bella, he's been really tense," I glanced at Alice, who looked back at me,
"THE VISION!" we both screamed, running for the front window, I pressed my face against it, so did Alice,
"Come on Edward, come home, what happened," I muttered, Emmett and Jasper exchanged looks, and then they understood, all three of then ran for the window.
Before I knew what was going on I was air bound, and landed on Emmett's shoulders. Shock flew over me, he knew I hated when he did that! Ugh! Men just have to ruin everything don't they!
"Emmett!" I scolded, my perfect hair had flown around, making it out of place, and overly, fluffy. I grabbed onto his head, and noticed Esme too had pushed her way though everyone and had her face next to the window. I looked at Alice who also seemed confused about suddenly becoming air born as well.
My head snapped back as I heard a car pull up, Edward's Volvo pulled up in the drive way, his face was cold grave, and full of shock and anger as he saw five of his family member's faces pressed against the window. He started toward the door, trying to shake off his feelings.
"I'll get the door," I said quickly jumping off Emmett and running toward the door.
I could hear my heals click against the floor as I threw open the door, literally, the door went flying as it crashed against the wall behind me, three inches away from hitting Jasper, but I didn't care, then it hit me, all this for a human? A human you could ruin everything for us. Someone so small, yet could ruin us so easily, I stood there. Just shocked as this waved washed over me.
I turned around, sticking up my nose and running out of the room, I couldn't believe this! Edward was pulling us in this, to fall for this, this, human. How could he do this to me? To all of us! And I knew, at this moment, in my eyes, unless she was changed, Bella would always be a worthless, bothersome, foolish, useless human, and never, ever, anything more.
Hope you enjoyed it, again, writer's block! But I still hope you like it! Please review! I really want to know if I did well, well see you for the next chapter, chapter 10! Please make sure to review; Kami and I luff getting them! I'll update as soon as possible, bye for now!
