Chapter 36

A/N: I know what you're thinking! My updates are getting very spaced out, I know! I've just been ultra busy lately, with school and other things I'm involved in, but I will be updating every week! I won't wait a month like some people I know (cough, cough, Stephanie.) Now read! And review when you're done!

Rosalie's POV

Alice had turned on America's Next Top Model, and was describing her favorite contestant to me.

"She's just so naturally beautiful, don't you think?" She asked me, with her head cocked to the side.

I probably would have responded with a nod or an "of course", if it weren't for Jasper and Edward hurrying down the stairs.

At first I thought that they had already finished getting ready, but then doubted it when I realized they had only been gone for a matter of about three minutes, and that they didn't even look ready.

"What's up?" Alice turned and asked Jasper when she too noticed their entrance.

Both the guys looked worried and even a little mad.

Edward was the first to speak. "Well?" He said. "Who is it?"

Alice nor I had any idea what he was talking about, so we stared at them blankly until Jasper spoke.

"You heard him. Who?"

Alice turned her head towards me in a confused state and I shook my head to the side in an "I don't understand" manner.

Alice spoke after turning back around.

"We don't know what you're talking about."

Normally I would have objected to someone speaking on my behalf, but Alice had my emotions spot on this time, so I wasn't one to interject.

Edward reached an arm around his back and pulled out from behind it something that I never wanted to see again.

"We're talking about this," He said, now with a bit of an angry tone in his voice.

Alice whipped her head around to face me quickly and mouthed, "I thought you got rid of that!"

I felt like I wanted to scream, but kept myself together and mouthed back, "I did!"

"Well obviously not!" She said aloud.

Her making noise aloud made me look at Edward and his expression.

He looked weary, curious, and anxious. I felt bad, knowing the confusion and dislike he must feel toward me right now.

Jasper and he obviously didn't know who's the pregnancy test was, but I had a pretty good feeling Alice wasn't going to accept responsibility this time.

It was time to come out and be honest with not only them, but myself.

"Well?" Edward repeated.

I raised my hand slowly and instantly felt like a school girl waiting to be called on in class.

Edward looked utterly stunned. "You?" He said in a whisper, probably because that was all he could manage with his shock.

Jasper, on the other hand, was FULL of relief. He sunk down on the couch beside Alice and said, "oh my gosh" exhaustedly.

Alice rubbed his back as he leaned forward and put his head on his hands which were rested on his knees. He looked back up at her and said, "I thought it was you."

Alice, in all of this drama, somehow managed a smile and said, "I would never keep things like that from you."

Jasper bent over and gave her a peck on the cheek and then said, "Good."

Then he cleared his throat. "WELL. I do think that Alice and I should go to the guest room and unpack! Don't you think so honey?" He directed at her.

"I agree." She said, keeping a calm expression.

But as she walked from the room, hand in hand with Jasper, I saw she somewhat felt for me because she made a puppy dog face and mouthed, "Sorry!"

After they were gone I was left alone with Edward, who was now sunk down in a chair by the unlit fireplace.

"Why couldn't you just tell me?" He asked, turning my way.

There was a small silence, in which I fumbled with my fingers for a second, but then said, "I was scared."

He looked at me incredulously.

"Scared?"

"Yes." I mumbled quietly. "Scared you'd be disappointed in me, scared you'd be mad at me, hurt with me."

He chuckled falsely. "Why would I be disappointed, mad, or hurt with you?"

I didn't have an answer so gave him room to say something else, and he took full opportunity.

"Do you think I don't want kids?"

I stared him right in the eye.

"Do you?" I asked him. "With me?"

He squinted at me. "With you? Of course. Who else would I want kids with?"

I stayed quiet while my words hit him with full meaning.

"You don't mean – surely you can't mean – Rosalie!" He raised his voice. "How can you think that?"

I lowered my head while saying, "Well you're always with her."

"They just moved here!" He argued. "How can I always be with her?!"

"Fine," I said, changing my mind, "You've always been with her since she got here."

My change of words didn't help much as he got up from his chair and came over to stand in front of me. I stood up as well so I could be on the same level with him.

"I have NOT always been with her," He said. "I may have been with her a couple of times, but Bella's a nice girl! And just because I hang out with her doesn't mean I want to have her kids!"

I looked down, I guess even ashamed that I had mentioned such a thing, because I was starting to regret even bringing it up.

"Besides," he continued, with a bit of a smirk, "Don't think I haven't seen the way you look at Emmett."

"The way I what?!" I say, surprised.

"You heard me fine." He replies. "The way you look at Emmett."

"Like the way I look at any other person?" I ask.

"No. With more….affection…than you would look at the average person with."

I was STUNNED at this. I may have looked at Emmett in an attracted way, because yes, he was good looking. But I didn't look at him with more affection.

It made me so mad he said this in fact, I walked right from my current position in front of him, and right out the door. I hopped in my car, and started driving down the street.

And he must not have cared, because he didn't even try to stop me.

A/N: Okay! Remember what I said! Review!
