NYC Forever

Chapter 10

A/N: Before I begin, I would like to thank everyone who has reviewed, but I would like to extend my gratitude to HistoryintheMaking for reviewing all of my chapters, and letting me know what I have to work on to improve the story. Thank you once again, hope you enjoy this chapter (and I hope I didn't bore you with this message).

Rosalie POV

My mom wiped her tears, and hugged me. Tears streamed down my face. Nobody seemed to care. Everyone gathered around us, and hugged us. Someone cleared his throat. "Todd, what's wrong?" Mom asked. Todd looked up from his lap. Todd didn't say anything. Todd stood up, and ran out of the house. Mom released me and ran after him, screaming his name.

"What's his problem?" Emmett asked, with the least bit of concern. I punched his large arm. Emmett rubbed the spot where I punched him. Alice and Jasper laughed in unison. "He's upset! Cut him some slack!" Alice demanded.

Jasper POV

"He's upset! Cut him some slack!" Alice demanded. I loved it when she demanded things. Rosalie smiled at Alice, before replying, "Thank you!" I smiled at Alice too. Emmett stuck his abnormally large tongue out. How old are you anyway? I asked him mentally.

I reached into my pocket. "Rosalie, I'm I allowed to smoke in the house?" I asked. Rosalie mouth formed a perfect O. "Hell no!" Alice snapped. Rosalie closed her mouth, and nodded her thanks towards Alice. "Why not?" I asked innocently. Rosalie smacked her forehead. "My dad died of LUNG CANCER!" Rosalie said with emphasis on lung cancer.

How was I supposed to know her dad died of lung cancer? Seriously? I feel so stupid. "Alice will you care to join me outside?" I asked her. Alice nodded, and followed my out the door. We stayed on the porch. I grabbed my lighter, and lit my cigarette.

"Do you smoke?" I asked. Alice shook her head. "Do you want to try?" I asked, knowing she would most likely say no. "Why?" Alice asked, her tone was quite recognizable. She was confused. I shrugged my shoulders and handed her the cigarette. She reluctantly took it, and stuck it in her mouth.

She took the smoke out of her mouth, and handed it back to me. I took it, and put it in my mouth.

"Why do you smoke?" Alice asked.

I shrugged my shoulders and replied, "My friend got me into it when I was in grade 11, and the habit stuck with me every since."

Alice nodded. "Don't you realize you could get lung cancer, just like Rosalie's dad?" She asked, honestly curious. I nodded. I smudged (A/N if that's the right word, if not please correct me) the bud on the ground, and opened the door for Alice.

She smiled as she walked into the house. Rosalie and Emmett were sitting on the couch, cuddling. Alice cleared her throat, as Emmett and Rosalie looked up at us. Rosalie's face turned bright pink.

Emmett removed his giant arm from her shoulder. Rosalie stood up.

"Alice can I talk to you outside?" Rosalie asked.

Alice nodded and turned towards the door. She gently squeezed me hand as she walked away.

"So dude, do ya like Alice, or what?" Emmett asked.

I simply shrugged my shoulders. Emmett lower lip turned out as he pouted.
