Rosalie
6. Secrets Part 1
I was tearing my hair out. Not literally of coarse but I was certain that I would die out of frustration sooner or later. I stared aimlessly out of the window. The day was boring and dull and the endless rain was making me feel boring and dull. I curled my hands into fists and banged them against the glass using only a small fraction of my strength so I wouldn't smash it. As I had anticipated, this didn't help. It only made me more frustrated that I couldn't bang on the glass with all my strength and make it smash without leaving a scratch on my hand. Arrrrrr! I lay my head on my pillow and screamed into it, again having to be as quiet as a mouse because I was living with a family with extremely sensitive hearing… a family of vampires. Secretly I was quite proud of myself, Emmett had already smashed several things out of frustration were as I had only come close.
I hated not being able to be with Emmett! I couldn't stand it! Our walks in the wood together had given us time to be ourselves; to be a proper couple. And as a result of taking them away, it was times like these when I really despised Carlisle. Why couldn't he see that this was driving us crazy? Emmett hated it as much as I did. Edward had even gone so far as to say that Emmett was finding it harder than me because of trying to handle being a newborn as well, but that was impossible. There were certain times when this drove me insane enough to think that it would be easier to tell Carlisle and Esme; so me and Emmett could be together again, but eventually I always saw how utterly stupid that would be.
There was a loud knock on the door and this still managed to make me jump even though I had heard the footsteps moments before. "Come in Edward." I muttered. This was just what I needed, an annoying brother to come in and tell me to stop mentally cursing so loud. "Rosalie please calm down." Edward sat on the edge of my bed and casually placed his arm around my shoulder, pulling me closer into a hug. Awww, okay sometimes he is a lovely brother…sometimes. "Look, your not exactly helping yourselves. You honestly don't need to worry about Carlisle and Esme. It will come as a shock to them but they won't mind. They know something is wrong but they really have no idea, I've got to hand it to you, you're good at hiding things." He half smiled at me but I wasn't exactly convinced. "I was brought up to think that to be joined to someone so much lower in society than me is un-heard of, please understand that Edward. I am afraid that Carlisle and Esme will think less of me if they know about Emmett and I because he was so much poorer than me." I could tell that Edward was trying his hardest not to laugh at this and this made me scowl. "Edward," I pleaded "Understand!" He nodded still sniggering and looked at me full in the face.
"Esme and Carlisle don't care, believe me Rose. They don't care and neither do I. It's your decision, it has nothing to do with them and they know that." I still couldn't accept this. "I'll sleep on it." I lied. Edward shook his head solemnly and headed for the door of my glamorous room before stopping and turning back towards me. "Esme and Carlisle are going away for a bit," My heart jumped. "They will depart two weeks on Sunday and will be back in the following three days." He smirked. "You can thank me later."
I stared after him as he closed the door and couldn't help but let out a little streak of joy before there was another knock. Emmett. We were aloud to see each other of course and act as if we were brother and sister, just like Edward and I, but it wasn't enough. I danced over to the door, still so full of overwhelming joy. "Hey Rose." Emmett said grinning at me. I glanced twice over his shoulder before kissing me softly. "Thank god for that." He muttered and I couldn't help but giggle. I beckoned him in and he sat on the edge of my bed, watching me. "So Edwards told you?" I asked. He nodded slowly, still grinning.
"Of course, he kept grinning at me every time he walked passed so I knew something was up and eventually got him to tell me."
"Well, at least we get to be together." I said sitting beside him. He put his arm around my shoulder, gently moving me closer to him. To my surprise, when I looked up into his beautiful face he suddenly looked solemn. I sat up and stared.
"What's happened?" I asked, shocked by the sudden change in his mood.
"Don't you think we should just tell them Rose? After all, maybe Edward is right." I gritted my teeth. I didn't want to talk about it.
"Hey, quit raining on my parade." I said jokingly, but his expression didn't change.
He nodded without looking at me before leaving my room without a word. I saw the disappointment written all over my face in my reflection in the mirror on my table. I felt my eyes close as I leant back on my bed and flopped my hair over my face. Seems like everyone is ready to tell apart from me.
