Sorry for the delay! I had a bit of a writer's block and really didn't feel like writing. But here is your new chapter. :)

Rosalie POV

"Well... would it be okay if I joined Edward and Bella?"

When he said those words, rejection flowed into my body, harder than it had been last night. So, not only the only guy I find myself a little interested in doesn't want to sleep with me, he doesn't even want to have to do anything with me.

I couldn't understand, though. Ever since the Cullens arrived into our lives, Emmett and I had spent almost all our time together. Well, it's not like we had the choice, since Alice and Jasper along with Edward and Bella were practically joined by the hip. But still, I thought we had... something going on for us.

Apparently, I was wrong.

Emmett got into Edward's car and Alice and Jasper joined me in my BMW.

"So, Rose. Anything you want to talk about?" Jasper asked. Stupid empath, I thought.

"Not really, no." I answered, plainly. Hopefully he'll get the message.

"Look, I know you really hate to go to school and pretend that we're normal and everything, but I don't get the frustration. It's coming like a tsunami at me. What's going on?"

"Can't you just leave me alone, Jasper?"

Jasper was a sweet guy, he really was. But he could be so annoying. I'll never understand how Bella can put up with him as a brother. I would have smashed his head against a wall a million time if I would have been at her place.

And if Jasper wasn't annoying enough, Alice, hell, she was something. And obviously, she just had to barge in.

"Rose, I know you're angry at Emmett, but you don't need to make us suffer because of it."

"Would you please stop talking about him like I have some sort of claim over him? Obviously, I don't. Ask him if you want a confirmation, I'm sure he'll be extremely glad to tell you he hates me with all his being! So, once again, please stop talking about this."

Both were surprised at my outburst. And the rest of the ride was silent.

When we arrived at the school, Edward, Bella and Emmett were already there, waiting for us. Jasper, Emmett and I were posing as seniors while Bella, Edward and Alice were juniors.

We went to a woman named Mrs Cope who gave us our schedule and we were off.

"What do you guys have first?" asked Jasper the Emmett and I.

"History" we answered simultaneously. Oh gosh, please, no. This is going to be beyond awkward. Please, let Jasper be in that class, let Jasper be in that class...

"Shit! I've got Economy... what do you have next?"

"French" I answered, while Emmett said "Spanish". Thank god I took the French option instead of the Spanish one...

"Well, Rosalie, I'll see you in French!" Jasper answered, happy. He sent me a wave of calm and hugged me while whispering very low so that only I could hear "Good luck." and with that, he took off, leaving me alone with Emmett. Not saying a word, we went to find our History class. Being vampires, we found it fast and introduced ourselves to the teacher, Mr Watson. He motioned us to our seats, which were aside.

The class started. Well, it wasn't much of a class. Mr Watson explained us what we would see during the year – obviously. I had seen it all multiple times – and told us what we would need as school material. After that, he told us that we could talk with the other students to get to know each other. Get to know each other, my ass. We're in Forks: everybody knows everybody already. I was mostly frustrated because this meant that I had to talk to Emmett. But I wouldn't cave in: HE would have to talk to me first and I wouldn't be very gentle with him. His loss.

"So... what do you have for third period?" He was trying to make small talks.

"English. You?"

"Same here."

We stayed silent after that. When the bell rang, I ran to the door, a little fast for human speed, and went to my next class. Jasper was already there, waiting for me.

"Jesus, Rose, you really are in a bad mood today."

"Yes. I am."

The class started soon after our small exchange and nothing of importance happened. Boys were staring at me – obviously. When the bell rang, I went to English. A few seconds after I entered, Emmett arrived, a few seconds before the bell. It seems like the world hated me because, once again, Emmett's seat was beside mine.

The teacher told us that we would read three books this year. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Classics. Bella had made me read them all. She would love that course next year.

"Can anyone tell me what is the recurrent theme in those three novels? Mr Cullen, perhaps?"

Emmett answered automatically. "Love."

"What kind of love, exactly? How would you describe it?"

Emmett thought for a second and turned to meet my eyes when he answered.

"Impossible love. Or hard-to-get love."

His eyes were blazing, still looking at mine. I couldn't concentrate, it was too much.

Suddenly, I lifted my hand and the teacher looked at me.

"I... I don't feel very well. Could I be excused?"

The teacher nodded and asked Emmett to follow me. Oh great! Just great! I walked ahead, until I was outside. The morning air felt good on my skin and the wind relaxed me. Emmett was running after me, at human speed.

"Not feeling very well? What the hell, Rosalie?"

His words were harsh, as if he wanted them to pierce my heart and shatter it a little more. I turned to look at him, feeling stronger than I really was.

"Do you enjoy this, Emmett? Playing with me? Honestly, do you enjoy this?"

"What are you even talking about?" He was angry, that much was clear. But I couldn't deal with this. Not now.

"Don't. Just don't." I spatted. "I'm calling Lisa and Esme. I won't be standing in your way any longer today."

"What do you mean?" He approached me, slowly, and his right arm extended to touch my shoulder. As soon as it made contact with my skin, I jerked his arm away and glared at him.

"Go back to class Emmett. I'm done with you."

He stood frozen in front of me. I had done what I wanted. Hurt him. Just as much as he had hurt me. Anyone would call that fair.

Then, why did I felt so guilty?


Author's Note

Some more Emmett/Rosalie drama! I know there wasn't any Edward/Bella in this chapter, but I'm taking a little pause with these - the first chapters concentrated on them, so I'm giving the other characters a chance.

Enjoyed it? Despised it? No matter what you thought of it...
