Blonde Ambition (Twilight25, Round 9)

by ladylibre

COMPLETE! As inspired by 25 single-word prompts, these are 25 assorted drabbles, flashes, and possible one-shots centered on Rosalie Hale. Most of the entries will be tame, but I'm rating it M just in case. This character-focused 9th Round of the Twilight Twenty-Five is my first time out, and I'm hoping you'll join me!

18. Prompt 01: Ancient

Renesmee runs into my room, sobbing. "Rosie!"

"What's wrong?"

"Jakey said you used to hate him, Mommy, and Daddy!"

Oh crap.

"Is it true?"

I grimace. "Well…"

"Is it?"

"Come here, honey." I cradle her in my lap. "Here's the truth: I envied Mommy because she was human. I resented Daddy because he hurt my feelings. And I disliked Jakey because he was super annoying. But we're a family now, and all that yucky stuff is in the past."

She sniffles. "Really?"

"It's ancient history." I kiss the tip of her nose. "Except the part about Jakey being super annoying."

Some things never change, LOL.

So excited to hear from so many of you again. I missed you during my hiatus! See you Thursday :) :)
