Chapter 28
"I don't know that we should go to the slumber party," Rosalie said when Bella reached her.
"What makes you say that? I thought you were looking forward to this party." In fact, Bella knew that Rosalie had been looking forward to it. In all honesty, Bella didn't care all that much for the parties, but she went because Alice and Rosalie did.
"I was... but Lauren and Jessica were in the bathroom before the start of school today, and the stuff they were saying about Angela... about you..." Rosalie shook her said.
"They're both mean bitches, there's nothing new about that, Rose. But it's a slumber party, something for us to do this weekend, that's why we go to these parties."
Rosalie frowned. "We could spend the weekend at your place, or at mine. I'd say or Alice's, but she never invites us to her home."
"I don't think she likes her home life all that much, Rose. And what would we do at my place if we spent the weekend there? Play dodge the older brothers? The same with your place. I'm already going to be avoiding your brother come Monday because I'm pretty sure I just agreed to something with him before I came over here. I don't need to be dodging him all weekend too."
"Okay, I guess we'll go –" Rosalie stopped, blinking "– wait. Are you actually going to be going out on a date with my brother?"
Not if she could avoid him come Monday. "I don't know, I don't have anything to wear."
Rosalie's grin was positively evil. "I can help with that."
