Me and Paula stared wide eyed at them all, our mouths hanging open and not blinking, like terrified little baby rabbits in the car headlights, and driving the car were crazy kidnapping vampires! The silence was broken when Paula spoke…
… "Problem solved, we just won't hang around you, come on Eloise," Paula said, sounding oddly military like it was an order and I had to obey.
Edward watched us sadly, like he was pained at what he told us. Rosalie smirked, pouting the left side of her face to make a victorious glare, "I'll get the door," she mused elegantly as she turned on her heel and swept over to the front door, she opened it and kept it there curtiously, waiting for me and Paula to leave.
Edward's gaze turned angry and furious, I found myself powered down to stay there. "Uh…"-I stammered, I stammer when I am scared-"Paula, I think I'll stay around, but you go if you…you want." I said, glancing over at Jasper who was glaring at Rosalie-still smiling smugly and standing, statuesque.
She sighed heavily, "Well, Paula, run along home."
We all turned to stare at Rosalie, was she always this cold? Wait, vampires were cold weren't they? Ahh well that made sense…I think.
Paula started to make her way toward the door, she cringed every time she passed one of the Cullens and Hales. "Luck to you, Eloise," she mumbled before she stepped outside.
Before I had a chance to answer her, the model statue shut the door, clasping her hands together, "Well, aren't we glad she's gone? Couldn't stand her, seriously Jasper do you really have that much spare time to be with her?" She cackled lightly, still sounding like an angel.
"Now now," Carlisle tutted to Rosalie.
She clicked her tongue and waved her hand in an uninterested manner. But I took things too far, she was being to cold to my friend, I wasn't sure how Paula would cope with what happened, I was concerned for her. I sprang from my seat and took some brisk steps to Rosalie.
Oh God, standing infront of her, I realised how tall she was compared to my average 5'6. She really was beautiful in the close up. I pushed my awe to the back of my mind.
Paula…Right I am on track again.
"You're a pretty heartless bitch aren't you?" I snarled.
Her icey eyes turned into pitch black and a growl rippled through her teeth, which were bared to me, I caught my breath, but I never budged.
Suddenly Emmett stood infront of her, pushing me back slightly. "Want to run that by her again?" He said slyly, with an undertone of manace.
I instantly winced and took a few subdued steps back, but Rosalie pushed her way past Emmett and lunged at me. Suddenly, it happened too quickly, Edward darted infront of me and spread his arms infront of me as a protection. He snarled ferociously at Rosalie but she continued her attack, Edward took his arm forward and caught her round the waist, sending her flying back into the back wall, a few photos haning on the wall ricketed off and fell to the floor. Esme caught then just in time and sighed with relief, the photos obviously meant a lot to her.
Rosalie climbed elegantly to her feet and swished her hair over her shoulder, as if nothing ever happened.
"Well, I can see where your priorities lie, Edward, since when was a pretty little random girl more important then your family?" She cooed, that smirk was back again, man I wanted to slap it off her face, but Edward's brick ice arm was still holding me back.
Edward snarled again, his lips rippling against his glimmering white teeth, "Thought we didn't touch the innocent."
Rosalie snickered, "Innocent, sure, believe that Edward, see what Alice has to say on that."
Alice lowered her eyes, but flickered them to me a few times. It unnerved me. I felt sick. I blanked out.
The soft warm fabric under me was a welcome as I came round, I blinked my eyes open and looked up to see Carlisle, he pressed his icey fingers to my head, "Mmmh, you're fine, perhaps just the shock, have you eaten anything today?"
I shook my head, though it hurt.
Edward was sitting on the edge of the bed beside me, his velvetty laugh brought me back round properly, "I think you humans have a habit of passing out?"
I smiled, but didn't have the energy to laugh, "Weak hearts," I guessed.
Alice was lingering by the door, "Jasper went to find Paula, seems Rosalie shook us all." She said lightly, "Are you okay Eloise, you gave us all quite the scare, especially our Edward, here," she laughed darkly, though she still made me feel safe. Had I missed a joke, what was that nervous yet happy look in Edward's eye?
I let it drop, I'd consider that later when my head was working again, the only thing in my mind now was…Well pain.
Carlisle handed me two small white pills. I took them from his cold hands warily and eyed them suspiciously, "Don't worry, Eloise,dear, Carlise is a doctor, they are Tylenol for the pain," Esme said quietely, I never realised she too was in the room, the only people missing were Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie.
I still held the tablets-unsure-in my hand, "What about Rosalie…And Emmett, I feel really ba-'' I began, but Edward held his hand up, as a sign to stop what I was saying.
Carlisle sighed, "Rosalie forgets her footing sometimes, she acts on impulse and hates feeling threatened."
"Threatened?" I pushed. Threatened, at me? If I had it in me; I'd chuckle bitterly, but I hushed myself and listened carefully.
Alice added her part here, "I told her how I foreseen you when it happens, she feels threatened by the beauty you'll posess," she walked over to me and sat herself on the floor, taking my hand, "To be honest, I've seen what you are like, your personality and they were you are, you'll fit in fine," Her voice sounded uneven, I was not convinced.
"Fit in?"
Edward growled almost inaudibly at Alice, she cringed and let go of my hand, "That is enough Alice."
Alice stood up and left the room, one by all they all left till I was left in the dark room to think over what the heck just happened.
Minutes passed, but the darkness and the lonliness made it feel like hours. I rolled over, only to find my stomach churn, my heart jumped as I saw the door open slightly, a dim light creaked through it and shown up the person now standing in the door way.
"Ah, Eloise," the voice spoke quietely, sounding like the descant notes in an a cappella.
Rosalie.
