Gotta Get Thru This

when your love is pouring like the rain
I close my eyes and its gone again
when will I get the chance to say I love you
I pretend that you're already mine
that my heart aint breaking every time
I look into your eyes

"Rosalie, can I be your maid of honor?" He asked in all seriousness. I could hear a strange emotion in his voice. I couldn't recognize it. I giggled shakily and told him that would be perfect as long as he didn't wear the same dress as Alice and Bella. He winked and smiled then turned back to the movie. We sat in silence. Every once and a while we would quote the movie and laugh at each other. Then, he recited the quote right with Michael the character that his best friend, Julianne, had realized that she loved him just days before his wedding, by memory staring straight at the T.V. screen.

"Kimmy says if you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just..." He paused looking to me.

"Passes you by..." I whispered Julia Roberts's line.

"Passes you by..." He quoted.

He kept his eyes glued to the television, but I kept my eyes glued to him. I could see the nervousness in his eyes. I could hear the anxiousness in his voice.

"Do you want a smoothie?" I called, Wow Rosalie very intelligent. He's probably writing this down as the most amazing quotes of the century… I rolled my eyes and kicked myself mentally. I whipped out some fruit and the blender. I just wanted to do anything that kept my hands busy. I turned around to go ask him his response, but he was standing right behind me. I shot my hand to my mouth to muffle a scream. "Don't sneak up on me like that!" I placed my hands on his chest and shoved him away.

"Quite antsy are we?" He asked perceptively. I sighed up at him.

"I just had a nightmare last night that's all." I murmured. He raised an eyebrow.

"Please tell me it wasn't about vampires again. I told you not to watch that movie Rose. I told you." He chuckled lightly. I rolled my eyes.

"No. Worse." I mumbled. He touched my shoulder and asked what it was about. I told him I dreamed I ran and fell off the Empire State Building. I don't think he believed it, but then his phone rang saving me. He whipped out his phone and I recognized the voice as Jasper's. I had completely forgotten. We were all supposed to go eat breakfast before school today.

"Yeah, we'll be there in a sec." He said and snapped his phone shut. We hopped into his jeep and he reached over and wound his fingers through mine. We drove silently to the restaurant that Alice and Jasper had chosen. Our group met for breakfast every Friday morning for breakfast and this week it was Alice and Jasper's turn to pick the restaurant. They picked a tiny quiet coffee shop near the outskirts of town. As we drove up we saw Edward and Bella sitting on the hood of his silver Volvo their hands intertwined smiling up at each other. Alice and Jasper were standing near they were both just staring into each other's eyes grinning like they were having a silent, private conversation. Alice's head shot up as she saw Emmett and I jump out of the car. Bella and Edward both were so lost in each other that they didn't even acknowledge our presence. Jasper raised an eyebrow and Alice's eyes widened. Ooo I'd forgotten they'd never seen me hold his hand before… I unlaced my fingers from Emmett's and blushed.

"Ummmm Good morning." Alice chirped. Emmett and I smiled at them.

"Hey Alice and Jasper. Edward and Bella if you can hear me, hey to you too." Emmett chuckled. Edward and Bella shot their heads up bumping foreheads. Bella blushed and Edward smiled at her admiringly. It was so beautiful at how their love had blossomed. I remember Bella and Alice were the first people I'd met when I moved here from Rochester, New York. Bella had confessed one night when we were all having a sleep over in the sixth grade that she had a huge crush on Edward Masen, a popular jock in our first period class. Alice and I both thought that brace face, shy, Bella Swan could have never scored a date with someone like him. Alice had confessed that same night that she had a crush on this guy she was performing a Romeo and Juliet scene with in drama class, Jasper Whitlock. I'd kept my mouth shut, though they begged me to tell who I was crushing on. They'd thought I should have gone out with the new guy from Tennessee, Emmett McCarthy. They had no idea that he was my best friend and we had plans to go see a football game together the very next day. I remember giggling and saying 'You guys have no Idea….'
