Rose POV
After we had returned home from the bakery, Emmett and I had sat down at the kitchen table that was so rarely used and he watched me eat.
"Rose, how can you eat that? It looks and smells disgusting." He commented as I licked the icing off my finger.
"Is not, here, try one," I said as I picked off a piece of my cupcake and held it out to him. He just glanced at it and shook his head.
I shrugged and popped it into my mouth, savoring the taste. Being a vampire kind of had you missing out on all of the little foods that were so appetizing when you were human. Even though it smelled disgusting, you kind of missed how it uses to appeal to you.
"Rose, what are you eating?" I heard Jasper ask from behind me and I turned to look at him.
"Food," I exclaimed simply. He was holding Alice's hand and both of them were gaping at me.
"What?" I asked defensively. Jasper just shook his head and turned to leave with Alice when she suddenly froze. I watched as her eyes glazed over and knew she was having a vision.
Finally after what seemed like forever, she seemed to come back to her senses but she had a weird look on her face.
"Alice, what is it?" Jasper asked.
"Rose…." Was all she said and I turned to face her, my mouth full of cookie.
"What about Rose?" Emmett asked as he glanced back and forth between me and Alice.
"She isn't going to stay a half-vampire. In four more day's she will begin the change back to a vampire but it won't be like a normal transformation. It seems the transformation will take much longer…." Alice said matter- of- factly before running off to catch Carlisle.
I felt my face pale at the thought of another transformation. And this one was going too much longer than just three days. That meant much more pain and agony.
I shuddered and Emmett didn't fail to notice. "It'll be okay Rose. You'll get through this." He said calmly but it seemed like he was convincing himself more than me.
"Yea, I guess," Was all I could say and just then Carlisle came into the kitchen but stopped short when he saw the food in front of me.
"You….like human food now?" He asked me as he pulled out his clipboard.
"Yes, for some reason I can still smell the blood but it smells disgusting to me. I have cravings for human food also," I stated as I dug back into my cookie and éclair.
"Hmm," Was all he said and I noticed him scribbling notes furiously as he came and sat beside me at the table.
"Did Alice tell you about her vision?" Emmett asked and Carlisle nodded.
"Yes, she did. That means that Nessie's venom is not permanent." He said as he looked up at me.
"You should be back to normal in no time Rose." Carlisle said with a grin.
"Good morning," I said as I opened my eyes to come face to face with those topaz ones that I knew only too well. I still hadn't quite gotten use to this sleeping thing and I realized that even though I was rested, I didn't like missing time with Emmett.
"Good Morning. Did you sleep well?" He asked me and I could hear the sarcasm in his voice. I laughed at this.
"Of course I did. What did you do while I slept though?" I asked curiously.
"I, uh, stayed and watched you sleep." He admitted and looked away with a sheepish look on his face.
"Aw, that's sweet Em," I said as I reached out and stroked his cheek. I watched as a grin spread across his face at my touch.
Suddenly, his face lit up and his grin widened if possible. I watched as he glanced at me evilly before jumping up and attacking my sides with his fingers. I squealed as he tickled me.
"Oh, so I guess you are ticklish. I guess there are those advantages to you being a half-vampire." He said as he kept tickling me.
I was laughing too much to reply.
"Emmett……oh….st-stop…..that …tickles…stop…" Was all I managed to get out between laughs as he slid over and stopped tickling me.
"Wow, that's probably the most I have ever heard you laugh Rose." Emmett teased and I shot him a glare but his smile was contagious.
I couldn't keep the grin from appearing on my face as I stood up and went into the closet to change into regular clothes. Of course I had to start wearing pajamas at night because of my sleeping. I liked them actually and Emmett decided that since I got to wear pajamas then he would too. So here I am in my purple plaid pants and the black tank top to match it.
It was then that I remembered that this was the last time that I got to wear them because today was the fourth day; the day I became a vampire again.
I watched as Emmett came in quickly and after picking out an outfit, he walked back out and closed the door behind him. I also found an outfit and hurriedly changed into it. I was wearing a light yellow sundress that had spaghetti straps and a slightly darker yellow ribbon snaking around my small waist that tied into a bow on the left. I decided that I would stay inside today so I wouldn't have to worry about the publicity. I ran a comb through my long golden curls and then let the curls cascade around my shoulders. Of course I took one long glance at myself in the full length mirror before leaving but I noticed something different. I looked at my stomach as I turned to the side and noticed the smallest bump there. My waist had previously been 19 ½ inches but now it seemed a bit larger. I knew that I shouldn't have gotten worked up about it , it –it was probably from all that I had been eating in the past few days- but I immediately ran out of the closet and right into Emmett.
"Whoa, uh, Rose? Where's the fire?" He asked jokingly as he grabbed my shoulders to keep me from falling backwards.
"I need to see Carlisle, Emmett. Right now." I demanded and he looked at me strangely before pulling me to Carlisle's office. We found him sitting at his desk flipping through a thick book that was open in front of him.
"Rose, Emmett," He nodded in our direction as he looked up. "Is there something wrong?"
"Um, yeah, well actually I don't know I just wanted to ask you about it….."I ranted and immediately stopped myself when I realized it. "Well, I was looking in the mirror this morning and noticed this-"I pointed to my stomach."-which seems to have grown a bit. Do you know why? I mean it could be because of the food I ate but Nessie doesn't gain weight by eating so why should I?"
"So your problem is that you think you're fat Rose? And I thought you were different from all those human girls."Emmett said and I smacked his arm in response.
"No you idiot. That's the thing; I don't think I am getting fat because of eating so I want to why I have a slightly enlarged stomach." I said.
"But I don't see anything wrong with you. You still look beautiful as always," I heard Emmett say and my anger immediately melted away and was replaced by love. Before I had time to think I turned around and crushed my lips to his as I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling his head down towards mine. I felt his arms around me tighten and as lame as it sounds it felt like it was only me and him. The whole world had melted away leaving us in our bliss.
"Ehem," I heard Carlisle clear his throat and I blushed as we stepped away from each other. "Can we get back to the issue at hand?"
I nodded and he took out his measuring tape and wrapped it around my waist.
"Hmm," He murmured to himself as he withdrew it and wrote down the measurement and a couple other numbers. "Well Rose it would seem that you are right your stomach has enlarged and I would also have to agree with you that it is most likely not food. But I can't come up with a valuable conclusion for this yet so we will just have to see how it plays out. And today is when you start your transformation right back to a vampire, right?"
"Yep, soon she'll be back to the old Rosie, right?" I looked down, kind of embarrassed at his nickname but I didn't feel the blood rush up to my cheeks as it had done for the past few days. I put my hand up to my cheek but I didn't feel the heat from when I blushed.
"Carlisle, I think I have already started. My skin is cooling down and I can't blush anymore." I stated. This was so confusing, I mean, wasn't the transformation suppose to be painful? "And so far it doesn't hurt." I added.
"Well, this is certainly odd. And there is no pain at all?" He asked me and I shook my head. "Would you mind if I checked something really quick…." Carlisle asked me as he pulled a needle out from his medical bag. I paled at the sight and I felt Emmett grasp my hand and squeeze reassuringly.
"Um, okay, do whatever you need to." I said quickly as he led me to the cot and I lay down hesitantly.
"Okay, honestly Rose, I don't know if this will hurt and I'm not even sure if your skin is soft enough for it to go through so just bear with me." He said as he came over and grasped my arm gently. I closed my eyes and turned to look at Emmett who had been watching Carlisle but turned to face me when he noticed I was staring.
"It'll be fine Rose," He whispered and he leaned closer and I buried my face in his shoulder. It was pretty uncomfortable seeing as how Carlisle had one of my arms and Emmett was holding the other and he was on his knees next to me with my head on his shoulder.
"Okay, here we go," Carlisle said and I felt the prick in my arm but nothing more. I lifted my head up and looked back to Carlisle who knows held a tube full of blood. But the blood was more purple than red. I then realized that I had never actually seen a vampire's blood.
Carlisle on the other hand was looking back and forth between me and the tube of blood. Emmett seemed to be doing the same.
"Well, Rosalie, with this, I might just be able to run tests and figure out what is wrong with you. This is incredible, your skin seems to be hardening at an alarming rate but it was still soft enough for me to get the needle through.
I smiled and turned to jump off of the cot.
"Thank you Carlisle." I said to him and I meant it.
"Oh no problem Rose. I'm happy to help." He replied and I smiled once more before grabbing Emmett's hand and dragging him out with me.
I was about to walk downstairs but suddenly I felt a sharp in my stomach. I ran quickly into the bathroom before collapsing in front of the toilet and emptying my stomach. I felt Emmett come in behind me and he held my hair back as I threw up the purple liquid that I had seen just minutes ago.
Once there was nothing left in my stomach I fell back down and leant against Emmett as I sighed.
There really was something wrong with me and I had a feeling I knew what it was.
