Chapter 2

I was standing outside The New York Palace Hotel at exactly 7 o'clock. I had changed into jeans and a black top, but as it was so cold out I had to put on a coat too. It was red though, my favourite colour. I was expecting Chuck to arrive outside, but instead he came out of the Hotel.

"Rosalie." he said, to get my attention. I turned in surprise.

"Have you been in there?"

"Yes, I have a room here, it comes in handy sometimes." he said. I rolled my eyes. He was probably exaggerating, most boys his age did. Chuck laughed at my reaction.

"So, where are we going first?" I asked.

We went just about everywhere. Things had definitely changed since I had been here last, I could barely recognise any of it.

"It's all so different." I commented, absentmindedly.

"Well, you've never been here before. New York is unique." Chuck said.

"Yes, it definitely is." I smiled.

"So, what made you and your sister move here?"

"I think it was because we'd never been here before…"

"Don't your parents care?"

"No, they died. A long time ago."

"Oh. Sorry." Chuck said quickly.

"It's fine." I said quickly, and smiled to reassure him.

We wandered all over New York, ending up sat in Central Park.

"This isn't usually my style." Chuck laughed, breaking the silence. We were sat on a bench, Chuck was hugging me to keep me warm. I had forgotten to wear gloves so when he touched my hands, he felt them freezing. I wasn't actually that cold but I did like being in his arms.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked.

"I usually don't care about girls as much as this… it's so strange… I just feel like a really like your company."

"Thanks."

"And you are beautiful. But I'm sure you know that."

"I'm not all the time, trust me." I said.

Eventually, Chuck walked me home. Not that I really wanted to go. But apparently it was getting late, and we had school tomorrow. He walked me back to my hotel.

"I'll see you tomorrow then." I said.

"Yes. Definitely." he promised. We smiled at each other and then all of a sudden we were kissing. It was nice… until I thought about Emmett. I moved away from Chuck.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." he apologised immediately. It made me feel worse. I should tell him right now that I had my Emmett. But I didn't.

"It's fine… I just… I'll see you tomorrow." I said, and hurried to my room. I ran in to find an empty room. Alice had left a note though. It said:

Rose,

Just gone hunting. Would have invited you, but I think

I'll be home before you.

Love, Alice.

I was glad she was out, then I had a chance to pull myself together. I walked straight to the bathroom and stared at myself in the mirror. I was not beautiful. Not inside anyway. I was evil… ugly. I couldn't believe that I had betrayed Emmett like that. Even though it was just a kiss, I mean I had actually liked it at first! What was wrong with me?

Why did I even go out with Chuck? It was obvious something like this would happen. I was just leading him on. I had to tell him. Which "him" was the question though. Do I tell Chuck that I've got my Emmett, or tell Emmett that I kissed Chuck?

At that moment, Alice walked in. She looked at me angrily.

"What?" I asked.

"I can not believe you. Don't you love Emmett?"

"I didn't do anything." I lied.

"It's not what you've done, it's what you're going to do." she said, and walked away from me. I stood there confused, and scared. What was I going to do that made Alice question my love for Emmett?

(Author's Note: Sorry it's so short, I just wanted to leave it at a good cliff-hanger.) :)
