I'm not dead! I am sooooo sorry for the wait but apathy, slight depression, a crazy work schedule, and a down computer do NOT help with the writing process.
Rose started small. First was a new haircut which took her long mid-back curly hair up to a short cut half way to her shoulder show casing her wild curls. Next was a new wardrobe which she enlisted the help of Balthazar, Charlie, and Crowley so she had a pretty good selection of band tees, cute dresses, and clothes that actually fit. Climbing the school hierarchy posed a bigger challenge but she quickly figured it out by joining the school choir, the swim team, the art club, chess club, the cheer squad, and starting a book club.
Soon Rose was the talk of the school and she was loving the attention "You're insane you know that right?" Johnny huffed one day at lunch "Well she did say she was going to take over." Fitz pointed out before taking a bite out of his raw steak sandwich "How am I insane Johnny? All I did was join some clubs and the swim team." Rose shrugged tucking into the salad she brought from home "I see no arm in being a little more social, besides you're just pissed I'm doing better than you in auto shop." She grinned while her cousin just rolled his eyes
"Shut up." Was all he had to say before a commotion caught their attention not far from their table. A group of jocks were picking on a smaller student Rose recognized as a guy in her AP science class causing her to get up and walk over. "What seems to be the problem here Jacob?" She asked her classmate ignoring the jocks "They took my grandfathers pocket watch." The short brunet replied his brown eyes following the watch as it was tossed around making Rose turn as well and glare marching up to the clear ringleader. "Can I help you sweetheart?"
He asked with a smirk "I'd like the watch back please." She replied as he laughed "Hey guys the pretty wannabe nerd wants the other nerd's watch back!" He laughed as the others joined in "Maybe if you give me a hand job honey." He added with another smirk before Rose reached out grabbing the other by the crouch and squeezing making good use of her new acrylic nails. "The watch please or would you rather see what happens with this hand job baby?" She purred adding a bit of her angelic strength to her grip causing him squeal like a pig and drop the watch into her waiting hand.
After she let go the group ran off and she turned to hand the watch back to Jacob but froze when her fingers curled around it and she was assaulted by memories that she guessed belonged to Jacob's grandfather when he fought in the army. Quickly she handed it back and nearly ran back to her table. "That was impressive but what if it gets back to your parents?" Fritz asked "Mom'll laugh it off and dad will give me a lecture but I think I need to talk to uncle Michael after school." Rose answered sending said archangel a text "Why?" Johnny asked pretty content with only being around the eldest angel in small doses
"Because when I touched that watch I saw all these things that had to have been Jacob's grandfather's memories. Michael is the only one who has experience with memories." She explained as the bell rang and she walked off to her next class. The rest of the day passed without incident before the two Winchesters boarded the bus home. When they reached their stop Sam and Dean were waiting for their kids "Hey guys how was school?" Dean asked as his niece walked right past him and her father staring at her phone "I kicked Johnny's ass on our auto shop test and bruised an idiot's junk. I'll be at uncle Michael's if anyone needs me." Rose answered before disappearing into the home Michael shared with Lucifer and Adam.
Once inside Rose dropped her back and jacket by the door before heading to the study where she knew Michael would be. "Come on in Rosemary." Michael called before the teen had a chance to knock "Good afternoon uncle Michael." She smiled as she stepped in closing the door opening her mind so he could read it "So you're here wondering why you saw what you did." The dark haired angel stated getting up from the desk and walking up to his niece and holding out a hand "May I?" He asked as she placed her hand in his allowing him to see exactly what had happened with the watch. After the last scene ended Michael sighed
"I don't know if this new power of yours is a blessing or a curse I'm afraid." He told her "What do you mean?" She asked "You're creating empathy links when you touch items with strong emotions attached. Normally one would just feel the emotions but you seem to be able to delve into the memories attached as well." Michael explained "With a bit of practice it shouldn't bother you too much just start out small." He suggested with a smile walking her to the door and opening it to find Gabriel on the porch. "Hey kiddo! Your dad and uncle were looking for ya so why don't you go see what they want while I talk to your uncle." The golden archangel grinned as his daughter rolled her eyes "Whatever, thanks again uncle Michael?" She smiled before walking off towards the Impala where Sam and Dean were watching with Johnny. "Hey Rose catch!" Dean called as she got closer before tossing her the keys "Fuck Dean no!" Michael yelled as Rose caught the keys and fell to the ground screaming.
