Chapter 15
Bella had just finished her breakfast and walked down the long hallway heading to Rosalie's room finding it empty. Rosalie and Emmett had left to hunt since they were quite thirsty. Bella waited on the dark brown with floral designed couch that lay near the window. Bella sat on the couch looking at the things in her room following the long bookshelves of old books that looked like photo albums or textbooks. She got up scanning her music which was similar to Edward's with all being classical with some modern classical. Under a CD shelf there was a shelf of books, Bella took a few scanning them in the meanwhile at least till Rosalie came. Hours seem to pass that Rosalie returned to her room only to find Bella sprawled across her couch. Rosalie nearly wanted to throw Bella from the window and just leave her but Edward was probably near listening to her thoughts, so she was careful what she thought.
"What are you doing in my room, Bella," Rosalie asked impatiently standing in the doorway with her arms crossed. Bella was spooked by her sudden order nearly falling off the couch.
"I just wanted to talk," Bella answered timidly. Rosalie's presence always intimidated Bella.
" I have nothing to talk to you—," Rosalie responded rudely.
"I wanted to know why you hate me so much and if I did anything unintentionally to set you off?" Bella mused.
"You don't understand, Bella. Why do you want to be condemned to a life that never ends?" Rosalie demanded flailing her arms in the air .
"I don't want Edward to stay with me as I grow older because knowing my bad luck I don't have many years before the bad luck catches up with me. I'd rather spend and eternity with Edward than grow old and die."
"You may think that life is better when you're a vampire, but its not. You'll have to watch your loved ones die around you as you continue living a life forever. Also, you could never abandon your parents since you love them too much to see them suffer. Once, you're changed you can't go back and for the first few years any human contact is impossible due to the uncontrollable thirst you'll have. You parents and friends will never find out about your secret too. I wish I had an option to keep my humanity, but I don't while you do. Edward will be with you even if you wait a while," Rosalie exclaimed.
Bella started to realize that Rosalie was angry at her for getting involved the Cullens, but because she is still human. With all the beauty, Rosalie would have embrace her fate and used it to her advantage though it has made her bitter. Bella had never seen this side of Rosalie since she always has a cold frontier that intimidates people. Rosalie was completely jealous of her humanity that made Bella laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Rosalie asked abruptly.
"Nothing I had a nice chat now I know. Thanks." Bella left the room feeling so much better that Rosalie didn't hate her, but was just jealous. Bella thought that the conversation went smoother than she thought.
"I swear I don't know what Edward sees in her," Rosalie stated frankly as Bella left the room.
Edward paced back and forth impatiently waiting for Bella, positive that when Rosalie was done with her that she'd be torn in many pieces. Bella entered the room with a cheerful look on her face.
"How did the little chat go?" Edward asked anxiously.
"It went surprisingly well actually I now understand how she feels though I personally think it's silly," Bella said chuckling.
Bella wouldn't divulge anything that she spoke with Rosalie as if it was some secret which irritated him that he had so idea how to read her mute thoughts.
