Chapter 21


If there was one thing that the Cullens could always agree on it was the fact that Alice's visions had never led them astray. They weren't always definite but the fact still remained that Alice's gift of precognition had been their saving grace at countless of times.

Regardless of those countless of times, the members of the Cullen family stared at Alice with slightly raised brows.

These eyebrows soon disappeared behind their hairlines when Alice spoke again.

"Rosalie has a human best friend."

"Or at least she will."

Alice giggled at the near gobsmacked expressions of her family.

Jasper was the first to break out of his stupor. His lips twisted into a small, odd sort of smile – relaying a sort of morbid amusement. "I have got to see this."

Alice beamed at him.

Alice felt a light prodding in her head and she relaxed as she allowed Edward access to her conscious mind.

Moments later, Edward withdrew his presence from her mind.

"Rosalie isn't the type to make friends," Edward, who sat beside Emmett in the La-Z-Boy sofa, verbalized, a small frown on his face. "Especially with humans. She knows better."

Alice rolled her eyes as she went to sit in Jasper's lap.

"If Rosalie likes her, then she must be special," she chirped.

Edward's frown deepened. "You're too optimistic. You can't jump to that kind of conclusion based on a single vision."

Alice pouted.

"Killjoy," she sent through their link.

Edward ignored her. "That vision could have easily been a warning. That girl could just be trying to get us to let our guard down. She could be spy for all we know."

Alice picked up on his train of thought. "A Volturi spy?" she teased. "Now who's jumping to conclusions?"

Edward gave her a pointed look.

"I'm just saying that we need to be careful. We've already got a growing breed of mutts to deal with. We don't need an unknown added to the mix."

"You're too optimistic," Emmett mocked.

"Aren't you even the least bit concerned that Rosalie may be a target?" Edward snapped.

Emmett shrugged calmly. "Angel can take care of herself."

Edward opened his mouth as if to retort but Emmett beat him to it.

"The Volturi wouldn't use a human to keep tabs on us."

"Wouldn't they?" Jasper intoned gravely.

Everyone's attention suddenly shifted to the Patriarch of the family, who had been silently observing his 'children'.

His grimace was enough of an answer to them.

Esme, who had been resting by his side, gave his hand a firm squeeze.

"What do you suggest we do?" she asked as she placed her head on his shoulder. They'd only just settled down after all. Esme thought that it'd be a shame for them to leave before they had to.

Carlisle inclined his head in contemplation.

A heavy moment of silence passed, before he finally declared,

"We'll wait."

The sound of Rosalie's car engine disturbed the still atmosphere.

"And we'll watch."
