Chapter 2

Jasper Hale

Rose hadn't slept in her own bed for weeks, every night she would start out in her room but the nightmares would take over and she would come to my door. Mom had hoped that the move would end this but that plan didn't work, I could see the disappointment on moms face when she looked into the room the next morning. The night had gone a bit smoother then the others, Rose slept the rest of the way through the night up until five-thirty when we both got up for school.

Rose and I both had to shower, and dress yet I was still done before she was. I went down to the kitchen where mom and dad were sitting at the kitchen table. Mom turned around to face me as I walked in.

"Was she any better last night?" mom asked.

"She stayed asleep once she got in my room, no screaming or tossing and turning." I told her.

"Good maybe the move has helped then." mom said before Rose entered the kitchen. "Here you to take these and go so your not late on your first day." Mom threw us cereal bars and sent us out the door. We climed into my truck and headed to our new school.

"You ready for this?" I asked Rose as we pulled out of the drive way.

"No, but I'll go anyway." she said. We rode the rest of the way in silence, when we got there we walked to our lockers. Since the town we now lived in wasn't that big the school wasn't really crowded so we had no problem making our way through the hall. That is until we turned the corner.

Rosalie Hale

As we turned the corner I ran into someone who was big enough that they knocked be back on butt. Jasper helped me up and I looked at the person who had turned the corner. It was a big guy all muscles probably a football player, very cute and had it been a few months early so my type. He was just standing there staring at me until someone beside him smacked his arm. It was a short girl with black hair cut short and choppy.

"Come on Emmett leave the pretty girl alone, sorry about my brother here he suffers from stupiditis, very tragic, were trying to find a cure." We all laughed and then headed our separate ways.

"She was cute." Jasper said when we were far enough away.

"Yeah to bad her brother could sit on you and kill you." I told him.

"She just may be worth dieing for." he mumbled before saying, "It's almost time for the bell so I'll see ya later sis."

"Alright bro see ya." Jazz walked away as I turned into my first block. I took an empty seat about three chairs back and watched as the room filled up. The blacked haired girl was one of the last ones to enter, she smiled and came to sit by me. She was silent until the teacher had taken role and given us our assignment.

"Hey I'm Alice Cullen, the girl who's brother almost killed you early." she smiled.

"I'm Rosalie Hale." I said.

"I really am sorry about that, we have no clue what Emmett's problem is, his brain just kinda shuts down sometimes." She laughed.

"Yeah I know how that is my brother Jazzy does the same thing." I told her.

"Jazzy? Is that the guy you were with this morning?" She asked.

"Yeah that was Jasper, we're twins."

"That is total and complete coolness. He's super cute by the way." She said as the bell rang. "Well I'll se ya later, what lunch do you have?"

"Second."

"Alright you can sit with us." With that she left the room and I headed out behind her. My next class I had with Jasper, and we I got there he already had me a seat saved in the back.

"She likes you." I told him in a sing song voice.

"Who likes me?" he asked.

"The girl from the hallway she thinks your cute." he smiled, "Oh and we're sitting with them at lunch."

Jasper opened his mouth to say something but the teacher walked in and started talking.

When second block was over Rose and I headed to the cafeteria where we evidently already had seats being saved for us. We went through got our food and I followed Rose back to a table were the small girl from this morning was.

"Rose!" she came up to Rosalie and hugged her. "And you must be Jasper, come on let me introduce to everyone. Rosalie Jasper this is; Edward my brother and his girlfriend Bella, her brother Jacob, and of course that big oaf is Emmett my foster brother." We exchanged hello's and took our seats, mine beside Alice and Rose next to Emmett. The lunch talk was full of questions about our old school and where we came from, Rose and I were careful to avoid the reason why we moved. By the end of lunch we had found out that I had class Alice next and Rose had class with Emmett. As the bell rang we headed our separate ways, it was so hard to let Rose go off with another guy after that night even if it was just right down the hall, but Emmett was different then Royce even in the short time I knew him I could tell that. He liked Rose too you could tell by the way he was staring at her, and I knew she liked him, he's so her type whether she admits it our not

Part of me is hoping Rose will let him in, while the other half is scared shitless that she maybe hurt again. In the end though it didn't matter how I felt Rose does what Rose wants to do.

Rosalie Hale

Emmett has cute dimples on both sides of his face, you can really see them when he smiles. I noticed this as we walked to our third block, cooking class, not exactly the class you expect a guy like Emmett to take, but he was taking it.

"So do you wanna be my partner all the girls all already paired up and there's no one at my kitchen?" he asked as we walked into the door.

"Sure, sound fine to me." Emmett and I walked back to the last kitchen we walked behind the counters and stood there. He handed me a plastic apron and a hairnet.

"We gotta wear them." he gave and apologetic look.

"Alright guys and girls, today your finally gonna make those yummy chocolate chip cookies I've been telling you about." Ms. Kim the teacher said walking into the class. "The instuction are on the counter and the ingredients are in the fridge, get to work."

Emmett and I got to work mixing ingredients and rolling the dough. When we had the cookies in the oven I leaned against the counter and looked up at him.

"So why does a guy like you take cooking class?" I asked him.

"I don't know, it's just cooking something I've always done with my mom, I'm good at it so I've stuck with it." he said. "Plus I get to eat everything I make." I laughed and he smiled.

"Haha, I'm sure you share some pf the food you make with your girlfriend." I said.

"No actually I'm recently single."

"I'll keep that in mind." I said as the timer went off, telling us the cookies were done.
