Chapter 9
Besides the fear of what was still to come, everyone in the house seemed pleased except for Rosalie. Rosalie was upset and Jasper didn't have to tell anyone this we could just tell. The problem with Rosalie was that she had wanted a family before Carlisle turned her, and now being a vampire she unable to have a real family. She helped my mother when she was pregnant with me. Even when my father was ready to destroy me Rosalie would not allow him to touch her or me. I owed my life to my dear aunt. All I could hope for is that she would help me in the same way she helped my mother.
"Rosalie, can I talk to you alone." I gave a glare at my father hoping he would get the hint to get out of my mind. Rosalie nodded and we walked out to her car and got in. Rosalie drove and I talked once we were out of ear shot. "Rosalie, I remember how you helped my mother by keeping me safe form those who would soon love me. And I want to ask you a favor." I took a deep breath understanding that the silence was my signal to continue. "I ask that if anything should happen to me during this time that you would please protect and help Jacob take care of my child."
Rosalie slammed on the brakes in shock only Edward knew what I was planning to ask Rosalie and I knew this would shock her. "Yes I did do a lot to help with your mother's pregnancy and I never have regretted this. I am in shock that you would ask me to help Jacob knowing how I feel about him. However, I promise if anything should happen I will never let anything harm your child." I knew Rosalie would not refuse me this request, so felt relieved that I could count on at least one person to protect my child.
We returned to the house where Bella met me and Rosalie on the front porch. Rosalie continued into the house while I waited back with Bella. "So, I understand that I have influenced you to use Rosalie?" I knew that Edward would have informed Bella on what I was up to. "Yeah. I just want to be sure that hatred won't get in the way of the child living. If something happens to me. I fear that no one would care and that my child would be in danger around the family; even you. Rosalie will take care of my child even when others will try to kill it or her."
I knew that Bella understood because she had done the same thing; she had trusted Rosalie to protect me when even she couldn't. I knew that if something were to happen to me that Jacob and Edward would both go crazy and blame the child and Rosalie is the only one that I would trust to not let them near the child. Now I fear if this child is a werewolf will Rosalie still keep her promise.
