Two days later, Rosalie shows up at the bakery.
It's near the end of my shift so I'm pretty much done with work and have a chance to sit down with her.
"Okay, what's up with you and Edward? I was at his parents last night for dinner and Edward was moody the whole time," Rose asks, picking at a cupcake.
"It's...complicated," I tell her.
"And?" She prods.
"He told me about Kate."
Rose's reaction is comical. She stops mid bite and stares at me, eyes wide.
"He told you about Kate? The whole story?" She clarifies.
I shrug. "I guess the whole story. I hope there's no more," I add, feeling a sinking feeling in my stomach. Could I handle more?"
"Bella, Edward hasn't even told his own family the whole story. All we know is what we've seen. The fact that he voluntarily told you about it says a great deal," she reassures me.
I look down. "He didn't exactly voluntarily tell me. It's just...I saw him with her."
"WHAT?" Rose exclaims, startling one of the customers who is sitting across the store from us. "I mean, what? You saw them together?"
I nod, then give Rosalie a little run down of what happened, including how he picked me up from Paul's.
"So, wait a minute. Paul is what? A friend? Boyfriend?"
My face heats up. "He is...just some guy. We weren't even really friends, just..."
"Sex?" she fills in for me. When I nod, a huge smile breaks out on her face. "Wow. I didn't expect that. Didn't know you had it in you, to be honest."
Internally, I roll my eyes. If only she knew.
"I guess there's a lot you don't know about me," I shrug.
So...I'm back! It was an unexpected but needed little break from this story. But now we're back to regular twice a day posting schedule.
Leave a review letting me know what you think and see you guys later!
