I apologize for not updating in months, I have had writers block and it is a major pain. I will do my best to update this story along with Ashes To Ashes as much as I possibly can. Thank you and enjoy this chapter :)


Previously:

"I don't give a damn!" He yelled, keeping his hands in fists by his sides. "He's helping us fight. They all are. I'll be near him..Emmett he's been a good friend to me.."

Emmett just laughed. It sounded full of anger and hurt. "Do you think he would have given you a second look if he hadn't...imprinted...on you? He would have hated you! Called you a leech!"

"Maybe.."

"NO! No maybe Rose! He would have!" Emmett pulled Rosalie closer by the shoulders and gently shook her. "Why don't you see that?" He said in a more softer tone. Rosalie felt upset and refused to look at him. "I...I just understand what its like to have a friend thats different..I know why Bella was so comfortable with him..." Emmett stared at Rosalie and started to realize something. "...Rose...do you love him?" Rosalie looked at Emmett and hugged him. Her hug was tight and he felt her kiss his cheek softly. "I love you." He hugged her back and hid his face in her neck sighing. "...We need to go speak with Carlisle." Rosalie stepped away and ran home, Emmett followed slower and realized something once again.

She hadn't answered his question.


-La Push-Cliffs-

Jacob was lost in his thoughts, he hadn't meant for Emmett to hear let alone know yet. But some part of him was...relieved. He didn't want Rosalie alone telling him, but he didn't want her getting yelled at either. He knew Emmett would try to force him to stay away from her. He felt pain just thinking about never seeing her again, he knew Sam would try to force him to stay away from all of them after the fight. Jacob knew someone else had phased and thats when he quickly phased back. He didn't want anyone else knowing anything yet, he needed to get things fixed before the pack started making remarks and Sam started making orders.


-Cullen Home-

"Carlisle something happened with Jacob.."

"What do you mean?" Carlisle turned to Emmett and Rosalie who were standing a bit apart, arms crossed. "I almost strangled him." Emmett said it matter of factly which caused Edward in the other room to stop playing the piano. "Why?" Carlisle actually yelled. He never yelled but this surprised him. "Because...he..."


Chapter Nine-Knowing


-Cullen Home-

"He what?" Carlisle was becoming aggravated, he could see Rosalie shifting from each foot, back and forth as Edward came into the room. "He imprinted.." Edward said before the others. Rosalie turned to Edward with her hands in fists. Her nervousness was gone as she started to realize something. "Did you know, Edward?"

"Emmett, explain to Carlisle what imprinting is, I see you overheard Jacob so you can tell Father while I speak to Rosalie...outside." Edward walked to Rosalie, taking her by the arm leading her outside. They went down the steps, that is when Rosalie yanked her arm away from his hold.

Edward walked and turned to face her. "Did you know?" Her voice was starting to raise as she walked to him. "Rosalie...I..." She pushed hi against the tree yelling at him. "Edward! Tell me the truth dammit! Did you know?"

Edward sighed and stayed leaning against the tree, as he looked at her. "Yes I did know."

"You knew! All this time! I thought I could trust you! Why wouldn't you tell me?" Rosalie screamed at Edward who stayed leaning against the tree calmly and looked at her.

"Why would it matter Rosalie? Do you think it would have been any easier on you?"

"It might have! Edward I should have known!" She paced back and forth gripping her hair and Edward walked to her. "He wanted to tell you himself when he knew you better. Give him a break Rosalie, hell give me a break! Do you think this was easy for me to do?"

"You lied to me.." Rosalie shoved her hands into her pockets and slightly glared at her brother. "I didn't lie. I just didn't tell you everything."

"You SHOULD have Edward! For goodness sake, Jacob was trying to take Bella from you!" She glared at Edward only for him to shake his head.

"Yes he did...but then he realized why he was able to imprint on you...Rosalie this helped him see he wasn't meant for her." Edward tried speaking calmly even though he wanted to yell, he wanted to tell Rosalie this all wasn't about her but he kept that to himself. "And you think he's meant for me?"

Edward stayed quiet for a minute. He started to speak but then saw in Rosalie's mind, what Emmett had asked her, and also her not answer him. This made him stop and think for a moment and he looked at her. "Rosalie...do you..."

"I don't know...I'm so confused, Edward. I can't care for a...him...its not right...how would that be fair to Emmett?" Rosalie thought her words so she wouldn't have to speak out loud, Edward thought about what she said and he couldn't even say anything.

Because he had know idea.


-La Push-Sam's Home-

Jacob tried his best to look normal as him and the rest of the pack stood in a circle around the fire. Sam was speaking but Jacob barely heard words, he heard the words "fight" and "kill" but that was all. His mind was on what had happened after he told Rosalie, she didn't say to never come around her again, which he was thankful for.

But he knew Emmett would eventually want to kill him. She told him that they would talk more later, he hoped she'd be able to. He was afraid Emmett would tell her things that would change her mind...or she would change her mind on her own.

"Jacob?" His attention snapped back in place like someone pulling and letting go of a rubber band. He looked at Sam and noticed everyone else was looking at him. "What?"

"Did you hear what I just said?" Sam folded his arms. Jacob blinked and gave a slow nod to show he did, when he actually didn't. Sam didn't look happy with that answer he cleared his throat and shook his head. "Phase."

Jacob started to feel panicked, he didn't want anyone to know so he started to shake his head. "No..Sam."

"I said phase." Sam used the alpha order, before Jacob could say anything else, he felt his body changing as he shifted. He fell to the ground on all fours as he finally changed, he watched Sam phase quickly afterwards and watched him freeze.

Sam saw everything, he saw how Jacob told Rosalie, he saw Emmett's reaction. This caused a growl to come from Sam, he started walking and the others, except Paul and Leah phased. "You won't be able to fight with a clear head, Jacob."

"He's going to be too focused on her." Sam spoke then Quil did. Jacob looked from each of them and tried not to focus on all of the negative comments they were making. Then Paul and Leah phased. Things got worse.

"Maybe we need to keep him away from the fight, keep him away from her. We don't need to worry about him getting himself killed over her." That was Embry talking. Jacob growled and Sam finally shook his big head and stood. "That is ENOUGH! Jacob I've decided what I am going to do."

Jacob looked at same practically glaring then saw it in his mind. "NO!" Jacob yelled in everyone's heads.


-Bella's House-

"I'm worried about Jacob, Edward." Bella looked at Edward as he sat down next to her on her bed. "Bella...you shouldn't worry about Jacob..he is...will be fine."

"But Edward I feel bad...he won't even know about us.." Edward sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose, he looked at Bella and took her hand in his.

"Bella...Jacob imprinted on Rosalie." Bella felt surprise and just stared at Edward, she remembered everything Jacob told her about imprinting and she shook her head. "What.."


-Cullen House-

Rosalie stood looking out the window with her arms around herself. Jasper walked inside the room and blinked leaning against the wall from feeling her emotions. She glanced over at him and frowned. "I'm sorry.."

"Rosalie...I don't know the whole story but...by how your feeling its..." He trailed off with a shake of his head. They were alone in the house as Edward was at Bella's, Carlisle took everyone else out hunting.

"I just don't know...I can't be his soul mate..." With a sigh, Jasper walked and stood next to Rose and looked at her. "I know how you feel Rose."

Rosalie stayed quiet and felt venom stinging her eyes. "...I love him."


Next:

"NO! I can't tell him that...I won't hurt Emmett!"

"So you will hurt Jacob?" Rosalie looked away from her as she frowned. "I don't know..."
