The trip to New Orleans made Rosie's blood boil. She was leaving behind everything she had ever know to go with her father, who she just met. Rose looked out window hoping to clear her head. The only thing she could think of doing when she got there was to call Kassidy. Kassidy and her met a few years back. They had been together for about one and half to two years. Kassidy and her mother were the only consist thing in her life. Rosie was told at young age she was a tribrid, but she didn't know what that meant at the time. She broke her curse when her and Kass were out with a couple of friends. They went to a party and the car swerved on the way home while she was driving. She then became a full on tribrid and was afraid because her mom said she had to transform the first time. Rose was jolted from her thoughts when the car stopped. Kol turned around to face.
" We're here," he said smiling. Rosalie nodded and opened the car door, " Not to pry here, but who might Kassidy be? I heard Herrina mention her.''
Rosie winced not many people knew about her and Kassidy. She was deathly afraid to tell this side of the family about her girlfriend. Her mom and Kassidy's mom were really the only ones who knew.
" Um.. she's just a really close friend of mine," she said not entirely lying to him. Kassidy was her best friend she just didn't know how to tell them that she was also her girlfriend. Kol nodded and grabbed the last of bags before leading her inside the mansion. When they walked through the door Rosie saw a brunette walking down the steps of the house. She turned her focus from the steps to the people who had just walked through the door.
" Kol?!" She said with confusing and shock in her voice. She looked behind him and saw a blonde girl around 15 or 16, " Kol, who's your friend?''
" Hayley, this is Rosalie," The teen glared at him because he knew she hated people using her full name.
" Kol, I can speak for myself," The blonde said stepping in front of her uncle, " I'm Rosie, but you can call anything close to that. I usually answer to Rosie or Rose."
" Well Rosie, I'm Hayley Marshall. Um.. So how do you know the Mikaelsons?'' She questioned.
" Well Hayley according to them and my mother I'm Klaus' daughter," Her saying this made Hayley's eyes widen. She looked to Kol to confirm what the girl had just said.
" Sorry Hayley, turns out you weren't the first person Nik got pregnant," Kol replied smirking, " Rosie, why don't I show you to your room. I'm sure you'd loved to get settled in."
Rosie nodded and followed her uncle up the stairs. They went down a long hallway and stop at the third door to the left. When the door opened it reveled a beautiful room. The window was open allowing the breeze to blow the curtains. The bed and rose pink sheets, she guessed Kol picked them to be funny. The bed was surrounded by a white lace curtain. The were two other doors in the room one lead to a walk-in closet and the other lead to her own bathroom.
" Rebekah wanted your room close to hers," Kol said setting her stuff down on the floor, " Freya is right next to her, so if you need anything I would suggest asking her. Hayley and Freya are both somewhat knew to family. My guess is you'll get along better with them. You met most of the family Freya, Finn, Elijah, Niklaus, Rebekah, Mother, and myself. You just met Hayley you have another Aunt named Haden, but she is in Virginia, you have younger younger sister named Hope, but it's best if you don't mention her at the moment" Rose looked at him trying to remember everything he said, " If that's all I'll let you get settled in."
Kol walked out of the room and left Rosie to her own devices. She walked over to her purse to grab her phone. After looking through her stuff she finally found and laughed at her accomplishment. She walked over to her bed wondering if she should call or text Kassidy. She decided on call because she hadn't heard her voice in so long. The phone rang twice before she answered.
" Hello," Kassidy said.
" Hey Kass," Rosie replied happily.
" Rosie!" she yelled happy to her voice, " Why did you wait so long to call? I was getting worried."
" I know honey. I'm sorry it took so long," She wanted to change subject off how long it's been since they talked, " So guess where I am right now?" Rosie said.
" Aren't you in Denver with your Mom?'' Kassidy asked concerned.
" Nope. My Mother decided to send me to live with my Father," Rosie stated.
" Oh! I mean that's great you always wanted to meet him," She said to her she didn't get an answer right away she said something else, " Baby?" Concern clear throughout the wolf's voice.
Rose nodded even though she knew Kass couldn't see her, " Right now, I'm in my new bedroom, laying on satin, pink rose colored sheets , and talking to my beautiful girlfriend who I haven't seen in forever," Rosie said exaggerating the last part.
" I Know it's been awhile. I'm visiting family right now, but how about instead of going back to Denver. I, oh I don't know, maybe, come see you instead?''
" Kass, I'd love that. Just let me talk to some one and I'll get it set up. Okay?" Rose asked the lat part wearily.
" Okay. Hey look I got to go, but I'll call you to say goodnight. Love you," she said.
" Love you too," Rosie said before pulling her phone away from her ear and hanging up. She sighed and looked around the room. She loved art so she thought of her new room as a blank canvass. Rose groaned before pushing herself off her bed. The first thing she did was shut her door and put one of her ear buds in so she could listen to music while she worked. She was half way down when she heard a knock at her door. Rosie paused her music and went to answer it. She put her hand on the knob and twisted it. When the door opened it reveled on of her three aunts that Kol had told her about.
" Hey. I know you probably don't remember my name. I just wanted see if you needed any help or had any questions," She said wanting to be helpful.
Rose thought for a minute, '' Know what, some help would be nice."
Her aunt smiled and walked into the room, " Um.. I'm Freya by the way."
" Um.. so I just about to start putting pictures up. So yeah I'm very abstract when it comes to things. If find a picture just put it where you think it should go.''
Freya nodded and walked over to a box. She moved the tabs out of the way so she could she better. The first picture she found was of a girl kissing Rosie's cheek. Freya turn to her niece, " Hey, Rosie," Rosie turned her head slightly to look at her, " Who are you with in this picture?''
Rosie froze as she saw who was in the picture with her, " Um.." was all she could say. She had a hard enough time coming out to her mom, but these were people she barely knew.
" Rosie, it's okay you can talk to me. I'm gonna judge you for anything," Freya said trying to reassure her niece that it was okay.
" She's my, um.. girl friend," Rose said hoping that spacing out the words would lessen the awkwardness.
" So she's your girlfriend. Rose that is nothing to be ashamed of," Freya said sitting down on the bed. She patted a space next to telling Rosie to sit, " No one here is gonna judge you for that."
Rosie had slight tears sliding down her cheeks, " I just.. I had a hard time telling the woman I lived with my whole life. I.. don't even know how to tell him," Rosie's tears became more noticeable to her aunt. Freya pulled Rose closed to her and wrapped her arms around her.
" I know. Okay, believe me. Want to know why I understand?" Freya asked getting a nod yes from the crying blonde, " Because I'm just like you. If you ever need someone to talk to about this I am here for you 24/7"
Rosie nodded to what was said to her. She didn't have anyone to talk to about this and now she did. Freya smiled and pulled her niece upright.
" Why don't we finish decorating and I let you get some sleep," Freya suggested. Rose nodded again and they went back to decorating only this time they were joking around and laughing.
