~*Emmett POV*~
When I walked out of my room, Rose had her back facing me. If her back alone blew me away, I was almost afraid to see what she looked like from the front. The leggings she had on accented her ass perfectly. Her shoes…fuck me sideways, those shoes. My fantasy was cut short when I saw her turn around and face me. She looked amazing - fuck - beyond amazing. She really channeled Nicki Minaj. The black leather jacket she was wearing was only zipped up half way so I got a look at her black corset and red bra peaking above it. She looked so damn good in red.
When she got off the phone with Royce, she tried to hide her anger but it didn't really work.
"What's wrong, Rosie?" I asked as she shoved her phone back into her purse.
"Royce is already at the house…drinking. I was supposed to ride with him over there."
"Well you can just ride with me and Kate."
She gave me a nervous stare. "I don't wanna impose. I can just drive over there. I don't plan on staying with Royce after the party." She was damn right about that. There was no fuckin way I was going to let that happen. I rolled my eyes.
"Oh shut up, you're riding with me. I wouldn't want anything to happen to your precious baby, if some drunken bastard gets near it."
She was about to protest, when Alice spoke up. "Ok so it's settled then. Lee, you're riding with Emmett. Now let's take some pictures!" Rose and I were taking a picture together when I got a text from Kate telling me she was ready. I let her know I was on my way and that Rose was riding with us. We all headed out and to our cars. I helped Rosalie into my jeep and looked at her before closing the door.
"Rosie, if you ask me, you look way sexier than Nicki Minaj tonight."
She must have been so deep in thought; she jumped and looked at me, "What?"
I leaned in closer to her. "Are you ok, Rosebud?"
She rolled her eyes and deeply sighed, "I'm going to try to have a good time, despite wanting to kill Royce right now."
I closed her door and quickly got in and started up my jeep. "I'll talk to him when we get there."
She just nodded and looked out the window as I headed out to Kate's.
On the way there, Rose's phone went off a few times ringing that God awful Robin Thicke song. Every time it rang, she would look at it and press ignore.
"Can I ask you something, Rosie?"
She turned from the window to look at me. The look on her face just about answered the question before I even got a chance to ask it. My heart broke, seeing her so upset. I reached out and took her hand. "Rosebud, what's wrong?"
She squeezed my hand a little and shook her head, "I don't even know." She flipped down the visor and checked her make-up in the mirror with her other hand.
"Are you truly happy with Royce?"
She put the visor back in place and looked at me. "I've been asking myself that a lot lately. Well, I am, sometimes. But I don't know if it's worth it anymore."
Oh shit…I wasn't sure if she was saying what I thought she was saying. "What do you mean?"
By then we had pulled into Kate's apartment complex. I pulled in front of her building when Rosalie finally said, "I'm going to break things off with Royce."
At that moment, I think Handel's "Halleluiah Chorus" went off in my head. I wanted to do a jersey shore fist pump but I knew that wasn't the thing to do.
"Why?"
"Because, at the end of the day, he's not who I want to be with. I thought I was falling in love with him, but my heart just isn't in it. This past week has proved that to me."
I opened my mouth to speak, when I saw Kate out of the corner of my eye. Rosalie let go of my hand, unbuckled her seatbelt and opened her door. Before she got into the backseat, she and Kate spoke to each other.
"Lee, you look amazing girl!" Kate said sweetly.
Rose gave her a genuine smile. "Thanks, Kate. I'm really digging your dress. Pin up girl, right?"
"Yep, but I have to say…your Nicki Minaj is killer." They both laughed and hopped inside. Kate leaned over, quickly kissed me on my cheek and put on her seatbelt. I smiled at her as I proceeded to pull out.
"Hey babe, you look great tonight."
She smiled widely, "Thank you. So do you." She leaned in closer and whispered, "Good enough to eat right now." She gave me a sexy wink and sat back. I only hoped Rosie didn't hear her.
Since the party was at the Frat house, there was no way we were going to get a good parking spot close to the house. So, I told Edward and Jasper to meet me at one of the free parking lots near the house. Once I found where they were parked, we met up with them. The girls huddled up together and complimented each other. They all looked gorgeous. My sister really did look like a Grecian goddess. The southern belle costume Alice had on was really her kind of costume. When I saw her bending over showing the girls her bloomer underwear, I looked over at Jazz; who was just smiling and shaking his head.
"Ok, someone take a picture of all us girls!" Alice chimed. Jasper took her camera as the girls pulled in close together. I could tell Rose was still trying to hide her anger towards Royce. Alice and Bella took Jasper and Edward's hands and proceeded to the house. I stood between Rosalie and Kate and held out my arms.
"Ladies?" They both laughed and linked their arms with mine. When we walked into the house, I immediately started looking for Royce. I saw a few guys gawking at Rose .Before I could put on my protective face on, I felt Rose tug my arm.
"I think I see Royce," she said softly.
"Do you want me to talk to him now?"
She shook her head, "By the looks of things, he's shitfaced. It won't do any good."
Before I could say anything, I heard Royce yell, "There she is!"
We both turned towards his voice. I might have been pissed at him, but he looked fucking hilarious. He had the whole Lil Wayne look down. Right down to the tattoos on his face. He walked up to Rosalie and grabbed her by her waist.
"There's my baby…damn, you look good girl!" He kissed her on the cheek.
"Hey, Royce." She spoke in a monotonic voice. With his hands still on her waist, he pulled back from her looked her up and down.
"Mmm mmm mmm! Damn baby." He pulled her close to him and started whispering in her ear.
She did not look comfortable at all. She pulled away from him and tried to laugh, "Let's just get through tonight first, Roy."
I really didn't wanna know what he said her.
"What's up Roy?" I asked, trying to get his attention away from Rosalie.
He looked at me and smiled, "Em! You look like you're ready to kick some ass."
He had never been so right. I had to put up a front, "Nah…Just a part of the costume. You look fuckin unreal. Who did the tats on your face?"
He swayed a little as he held Rose close to him, "Oh, one of girls from Delta Gamma." I saw Rose cut her eyes at him.
"Why didn't you call me? I would have done them, Royce."
"Oh, they were already over here, though."
She turned her face away from him, and Royce and I both knew she was pissed. Before he could say anything else to her, she looked at Alice and Bella.
"Girls, how about we go find the bathroom and freshen up before we go dance?" They both nodded. Rose then looked at Kate, "You wanna come too?" Kate looked up at me and smiled. I smiled back at her; I wanted to talk to Royce anyway,
"Go head, I'll be around." I pulled her closer to me and whispered in her ear, "Make sure Rose doesn't go crazy, for me."
She smiled and nodded and then proceeded to go off with the girls.
Once they were out of sight, Royce looked at us, "So you wanna do some shots?"
I shook my head, "Royce, I think you've had enough man."
"Oh I'm just getting started!" I looked over at Jasper and shook my head as Royce started walking towards the kitchen.
I was getting a beer when the girls finally came back from the bathroom. Rose looked like she had in the car only this time I knew she had really been crying. At that moment I wanted to do nothing more than to kick Royce's ass, but I wouldn't unless Rosalie asked me to. I'd do it in a heartbeat. Kate walked up to me and smiled lightly.
"Is she okay?"
She nodded, "Yeah, just really pissed. But, she'll be fine. We all got her to calm down."
I nodded and looked at Rose. I took Kate's hand and walked over to her. "Rosie, anytime you're ready to go just say the words."
She nodded as Royce took her by the hand, "I've gotta show everybody how good my baby looks tonight." He pulled her away and she looked back and me and mouth "I'm sorry." I gave her a warm smile and nodded.
I felt Kate rub my back. "You okay, babe?"
I looked down at her, "Yeah. I'm good."
The whole night I was worried about Rosalie. At one point, I saw her and Royce dancing in a corner, his hands roaming all over her body. I could tell by her body language she wasn't comfortable with it at all. Kate was talking to a mutual friend of ours when I walked over to Rose and Royce.
"Ay Roy, mind if I cut in for a bit? I promise I won't steal her for too long."
She gave me a look of relief as Royce removed his face from the crook of her neck.
He looked at me and I could tell by his bloodshot eyes that this fucker was high. "What?"
I was about to repeat myself, when Rosie spoke up. "Can you get me a drink, I'm really thirsty…..Me and Em are gonna dance until you get back."
He nodded and leaned in to kiss her. She tried to make it a quick kiss, but I guess Royce had other plans. He pulled her closer to him as he shoved his tongue down her throat. That shit made me uncomfortable and mad as hell. But I kept my cool.
She gently pushed him away, "Royce, I'll be right here. I'm not going anywhere, damn."
He smiled at her with hooded eyes. "Ok, baby."
Once he was gone, I looked at Rose and gave her a smile. "He's been like that all night, I suppose?"
She nodded and said, "Yeah, but I don't wanna talk about him right now….let's just dance." Usher's "Lil Freak" started playing and Rose turned around so that her back was against me. Apparently this was everybody's song because all of sudden the room got really tight, forcing me to hold on to her hips as we moved to the beat. She began to grind her body on mine. I've danced with her plenty of times but never this close. It felt really REALLY nice to have her so close to me. We rocked a bit slowly but it was still on beat. As I gripped her tighter, she lifted one her arms and wrapped it around my neck as she started to roll her hips on me even more. I followed suit by grinding even more on her.
Once Nicki Minaj's verse began, Rose dropped her arm from around my neck and put both of her hands onto of mine. She laced her fingers in mine, causing me to let go of her hips. She raised them up a little, and began to slowly grind her hips while sliding down my body. I had never seen her dance in this kind of way, I was taken so off guard at first but just decided to just fuck it all and continue grinding on her as she made her way back up my body. Her being a dancer had great advantages. She repeated this motion a few more times. As the song began to end, she let go of my hands and turned to face me. "Didn't think you could keep up for a minute there, Em."
I placed my hands back on her hips and leaned down to whisper in her ear, "Do you doubt my dance skills, Rosebud?"
She shook her head and laughed, "No… not really. Just didn't think you had it in you."
"You'd be surprised at a lot of things."
She looked up at me and was about to say something, when we both saw Royce fishing through the crowd with two cups in his hands. I quickly let go of her hips and stepped away a little bit. He staggered over to us and handed Rose her drink. She took it from him and put her nose up to it.
"Beer? You got me beer?"
He looked at her dumbfounded. "You said you were thirsty. That's all that was there."
She huffed and shook her head. I cut my eyes at him, "A water would have been fine…she is under age after all."
Royce smacked his lips, "Man whatever, one damn beer is not going to kill you …Just drink the damn thing."
I was caught off guard with how he spoke to her; I began walking towards him, "You know what, Royce you-"
"There you are! I've been looking all over for you." Kate's voice interrupted me.
I was ready to rip his fucking head off. She walked up to me and wrapped her arms around my waist.
"I was just talking to Rosie for a bit while Royce got her a drink." I looked at Rosalie as she just shook her head and put the cup up to her mouth.
"Rosie, I can get you something else."
"No, this is fine. I need a drink anyway." And with that she guzzled her beer. When she was finished she looked at us and smiled, "Ok, it wasn't that bad."
Royce smiled widely at her and then took her hand. "Alright, then! Let's go."
They took off, leaving me with Kate again. I turned to look at her. "Do you want a drink?" I asked.
She gave me a warm smile. "No, I'm okay. Are you okay?"
I looked around to see if I could spot Rose and Royce through the crowd. "I just don't know about Royce tonight. The way he's all over Rosie….I just have a bad feeling right now."
Kate pulled me closer to her and rubbed my back. "Babe, Rosalie is a big girl. I'm sure she can handle him."
~*Rosalie POV*~
The night was not going how I had imagined it. I spent most of it being gawked at by Royce and his friends. It made me uncomfortable. When he didn't have his hands all over me, he was with his boys, smoking. It was the most I had ever seen him smoke.
"Royce, I wanna dance." I said. I'd had enough of watching him smoke blunt after blunt.
He looked at me through his lidded eyes and smiled, "Ok, baby."
When we got to the dance floor, a song I really didn't know was playing but it had a nice beat to it so I went with it. I was getting into the song until Royce's hands began to roam all over my body uncontrollably. He pulled my body close to his , sliding his hands down my back and over my ass. I had to keep moving his hands from my butt back up to my waist, but his hands would always find a way back there. I was 10 seconds away from pushing him off me and giving him a piece of my mind when I heard Emmett come up to him; asking if he could cut in. I silently jumped for joy as Emmett came to my rescue. When Royce didn't hear what he said, I figured if he asked again, Royce would have declined, so I told him I was thirsty. Before he walked away, he leaned in to kiss me. I gave him what I thought was a quick kiss but Royce shoved his tongue down my throat. I couldn't take this shit, so I pushed him off of me.
"Royce, I'll be right here. I'm not going anywhere, damn."
He looked at me with his still hooded eyes and nodded. Once he was gone, I didn't want to talk about Royce, I just wanted to dance. Dancing with Emmett was nice. REALLY nice. Being that close to him was different yet exhilarating Once I felt him grip my hips tighter, I knew I was going to have some fun. I honestly didn't think he could keep up. But when I started to grind my hips harder, he ground harder too. When the song was over, I didn't want him to let me go. I felt perfect being that close to him, but I knew Royce would be back soon with my drink. When he did get back, he gave a beer. I had never liked beer, but I didn't really care; I needed something to make me forget about being pissed at Royce tonight. If he wasn't so high and drunk, I would have broken up with him at the very chance.
Royce pulled me away from Emmett and Kate to join the rest of his friends. If you asked me, I thought all of Royce's friends were assholes. Especially, his friend James. He was always looking at me and it made just as uncomfortable as it did when Royce put his hands all over me. I literally just sat there, while Royce drank heavily and smoked with his friends. I grabbed my clutch off the coffee table in front of me, to look for my phone, when I suddenly felt dizzy. I figured it was just a head rush from leaning over so fast, but when I sat back up, it just got worse. I tapped Royce on the shoulder, "Royce…I think I'm going to be sick." I felt him grab my waist and pull me up. I could barely walk.
"Com' on babe, let's go upstairs." I heard him say as we walked out of the room and towards the stairs. I could barely see as he pulled me up the stairs and into an empty bedroom. I sat down on the bed and fell back. The room was still spinning when I felt Royce starting to kiss my neck.
"Royce, stop it. I'm not feeling good." I said, trying to push him away. But I was too weak, and I was feeling more tired by the minute. Royce's hands began roaming all over my body.
"Let me help you feel better." He continued to kiss on my neck and I still tried to move him away.
"No Royce, I just want to lay here." I felt another pair hands take my hands and hold them above my head, very tight.
"I guess we're going to have to do things the hard way." And then everything went black.
~*Emmett POV*~
I was hoping Rose would come around telling me she was ready to go, but she was nowhere to be found. Kate was ready to go and I wasn't letting Rosalie stay here with Royce. There was just no way in hell.
"I'm just going to go look for her," I told Kate, as she stood by the door with the rest of the gang. It felt like I had looked everywhere for her. So, I decided to ask people around the room if they had seen her and Royce.
"Uh, yeah. I saw him carrying her up stairs. She didn't look too good."
I felt my face getting hot with anger. "What do you mean?"
"She looked really drunk."
I didn't say anything else, I just headed upstairs. I stopped at the first door I saw cracked open and saw RED. In the room, was Royce on top of Rosalie's limp body, his hands up her shirt and her pants halfway down her legs. James was over her, holding her arms over her head.
"WHAT THE FUCK?" I burst into the room and yanked Royce off of her and threw him into the wall close to the bed. I grabbed James by his greasy hair and pulled him off the bed.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing, huh? Taking advantage of her because she's drunk?" Before he could answer, my fist came in contact with his face. Once or twice, I really wasn't keeping count. I threw him out of the room and rushed over to Rose, pulled her pants up and held her up.
"Rosie baby, can you open your eyes for me?"
She began to frown, but he eyes weren't opening. "Emmett?" She said weakly.
"Yeah, Rosie. I need you to wake up."
"It feels like the room is spinning," she said, but she still wouldn't open her eyes, so I got up and scooped her up off the bed. I was about to turn to leave, when I saw Royce trying to get up.
"Royce, if you value your fucking life, I suggest you stay where the fuck you are." He opened his mouth to speak but the look I gave him caused him to shut it quick.
"Yeah shut the fuck up. I'll come back for you later." I walked out of the room with Rosalie in my arms and headed downstairs. Kate and the gang were standing at the bottom of the stairs. Jasper stepped forwards as I came to the last step.
"What the hell happened to my sister?"
"I found her passed out in the room, with Royce and James all over her. It's taking every fiber of my being not to go back and kill Royce, right now."
"Oh I saw James running out looking close to death. You did a number on his face," Edward said. Alice looked at me, glassy eyed.
"Should we take her to the hospital? They didn't…ya know?"
I felt the blood in my face flush. If I had come into the room later, who knew what they would have done to her. "No, her pants were half way off her body but her, uh, underwear were still on. I just want to get out of here, go back to the apartment."
They all nodded and we headed out of the house. When Kate and I got to my Jeep, she opened the back passenger door.
"Do you mind driving? I want to keep an eye on her, just in case she gets sick." She silently nodded and I handed her my keys. I just silently held Rose as we rode back to my apartment. When we got in, I went straight to my room and laid her on my bed. I was about to go and get some water, when I heard Rosalie whimper. " I think I'm going to throw up." I scooped her up, rushed over to the bathroom and got her to the toilet just in time. I took off her wig so it wouldn't get in the way as she retched into the toilet. When she was done, I took her into my room and laid her back down. Her eyes were halfway open.
"Rosie, baby. Can you tell me how many drinks you had?"
"Just the one Royce gave me."
That motherfucker drugged her! At that moment, I wanted to do nothing more than to go back to that fucking house and beat the ever living shit out of Royce. I seriously never took Royce as one to force himself on to women, let alone his girlfriend. I called Alice and Bella into my room. I went into my clothes drawer and got out a tshirt and shorts.
"Can you guys get her into this? I'm going to get her some water."
I walked into the TV room and saw Kate putting on her coat. "Hey, where are you going, babe?"
"I called Irina to come get me."
"Oh, I would have taken you home."
She gave me a warm smile. "No, it's fine. You need to take care of Rosalie. I see what's important now."
I gave her a confused look. "I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that."
"I'm not sure I fit in this setting. I see everything clearly now."
"What are you saying Kate?"
"I'm not the one you should be with, Emmett. It's evident by what happened tonight."
"Kate, Rose is my best-"
"Friend, right. It's more than that and we both know it. So why keep this up? You think I don't notice how you look at her? Or how you are when you talk about her?"
"Kate, I-"
She held her hand up. "Don't worry Em. I'm not mad….entirely. I just want you to know that I get it."
Before I could say anything, there was a honking of a horn. "That would be my sister." She stepped closer to me and kissed me softly on the lips. "Take care Emmett, and take care of Rosalie. She's going to need it." And with that she walked out.
"Em?" I heard my sister calling me from the hallway. I turned to look at her.
"Yeah?"
"That glass of water?"
"Shit, yeah. Here I come.
"Okay, She's calling for you." I quickly went into the kitchen and grabbed a bottled water out of the fridge. When I walked into my room, Rosalie was in my clothes. Alice was next to her, wiping her face with a wet towel. She looked up at me with a sad smile. "She just threw up again and we couldn't make to the bathroom. Your trashcan fell victim."
"Oh that's okay."
I looked at Rose, who still had her eyes closed, but was frowning.
"Alice, where's Emmett?"
I walked to the end of the bed and gently rubbed her leg. "I'm right here, Rosie. I got you some water, I need you to drink some for me." I helped her sit up and held it up to her mouth. She took a small sip and I sat it on the nightstand next to my bed. I scooted her over and pulled back the covers and got into bed with her. I was still in my clothes, but I didn't give a fuck. I held her close to me and let her rest. She moved closer against my chest and deeply sighed.
"I love you, Emmett" Given the situation, it sure felt good to hear her say those words. I tightened my grip around her a little bit and kissed her on her forehead.
"I love you, too, Rosie, more than you'll ever know." I wasn't sure if she even heard what I had said, because she only let out a soft snore. She swore up and down that she didn't snore, but I knew for sure. Once I knew she was okay to sleep alone, I slipped from the bed and headed out to the TV room. I grabbed my keys off the coffee table and headed for the door when I heard Jasper call out, "Where are you going, Em?"
"I'm going to talk to Royce."
He let out a dark laugh, "The fuck you are."
I turned to face him and cocked an eyebrow. He pursed his lips, "The only talking you're going to do is with your fists."
I shrugged. "And that would be a bad thing, because?"
"Because, you're not thinking straight. You're way too full of anger and I'm afraid you'll end up doing something you'll regret."
"Jazz…if I hadn't walked into that room, he and James would have…." The mental picture of Royce and James taking advantage of Rosalie hit me like a freight train hitting a brick wall. My emotions over took me and sent me to my knees. I buried my face in my hands and let it all out. I felt a pair of hands on my shoulders.
"Em, I know you're upset."
"FUCK JAZZ! You didn't see! She was just laying there, totally defenseless, while they had their filthy hands all over her. I want to make him pay for doing that."
There was a brief silence and then Jasper spoke up. "Then I'm coming with you."
I looked up at him. "What?"
"I'm coming with you….He fucked with my baby sister. I can't have that. I'm coming and Edward is too. Hey, Eddie! Let's go!" Edward came out of his room, now dressed in sweat pants and a shirt.
"Go where?"
"To go fuck up Royce."
He started bouncing around, moving his arms. "Oh hell, yes! Let's teach this fucker a lesson."
I looked at them both. "You guys are serious."
Jasper put on his coat. "As a fuckin heart attack. Nobody fucks with my sister and gets away with it."
Edward tossed me keys. "You ready?"
"Let me check on her one more time." She was still snoring softly. When I walked out of my room, Alice and Bella were now in the TV room.
"Can you guys check on her frequently, please?"
Alice nodded, "Please don't do anything stupid."
We all nodded and headed out. Once we got back to the frat house, most of the cars were gone, but I saw Royce's car so I knew he was still there. When the three of us walked in, some of my fellow frat brothers looked at us like they were the ones getting their asses kicked. They looked terrified.
"Where is Royce?" I asked no one in particular.
"I think he's out back," I heard someone say. I looked at Jazz and Edward and pointed towards the patio door.
"Let's go." When I got to the patio door, I could see him sitting by the hot tub looking like a scared little bitch. I walked out onto the patio and headed towards him. When I caught his eye, the expression on his face looked like he just shit himself. He stood up and gave me an apologetic look, he opened his mouth to speak, but my fist came in contact with his face.
