(Bella's Point of view)
After Carlisle dropped me home, I stopped surprised to see the person leaning on my doorstep.
"Where's Jacob? I thought you two would've been together." Rosalie questioned.
"We split since the graduation, but I'm sure he's hanging out with his friends and family down at the reservation." She didn't seem satisfied with that answer. What was this 20 questions? We were never best friends, Rosalie and I, but we tolerated each other because she didn't want to admit we shared Jasper and Edward. Edward my brother and Jasper my lover. I guess she was jealous. I can't say I blame her.
"What's this about Rose?" I wasn't seeing her point in these strange questions.
"You're with Jasper right?" Her perfectly arched eyebrows moved up.
"Yes." I was just as confused as she looked.
"So how does Jacob fit in the picture?" She looked tense. Let's see if I can help.
Calm down. Relax.
Her body relaxed, but she looked pissed.
"Did you do that?" She pointed an accusing finger at me. Guilty as charged.
"Yea…uuumm you looked like you needed it." She froze.
I sighed, passing her to unlock the front door. She followed.
"Listen, Jacob is my best friend. He used to like me, but I didn't..I-"
"You chose Edward." I glanced at her as I grabbed a mug in the kitchen.
We reached a comfortable silence. The only sound was the microwave warming up my water.
"Look, I'm sorry about Jacob. It's just that Jasper is my brother and I don't want to see him hurt. I know that he really likes you and I just don't want to watch as he gets his heart broken." Her tone softened. I turned to face her and I smiled. If only she was always soft, people would really love her as much as Edward does.
"Rose? Thanks." I stirred my hot chocolate packet around.
"For what?"
"For your kindness. You are just looking out for your brother, and I can say I didn't expect that from you. He deserves to be loved." She nodded.
"I should go. We'll catch up sometime." We froze. I honestly didn't expect it, but she hugged me.
"Take care of yourself ok? We're going to need you on our team." She whispered. Then she teleported and she was gone. I
"I know." I said to no one in particular.
