Chapter 6: Bathroom Gossip Part 1
RPOV
Alice and Jasper snuck out of the house, probably to get more privacy so the only ones who sat down for dinner were Emmett, Edward, Bella, Lucas, and me. Edward and Bella kept smiling shyly at each other and flushing when they were caught by the other. Emmett sat in his chair, studying me with Lucas. It annoyed me to no end. I felt like I did when I had first started taking my mother responsibilities serious. Everyone stared at me to point out anything I did wrong.
Dinner was done and dishes were washed when Alice and Jasper walked back in. Alice's eyes were watery and full of sadness. Jasper was furious. He bolted up the stairs and wouldn't open the door unless it was Lucas. Everyone left after that since the rain had stopped during dinner. Thank goodness. I was so close to punching Emmett if he kept hovering over me like I was going to drop Lucas.
"So what did you think of Bella?" Edward asked casually after I had changed in some sweats and a tank top. Edward was walking around in boxers and a tee. it would've been awkward if I wasn't used to seeing him like this. We've been friends since we were toddlers. Once I started growing boobs and an ass and Edward was a horny ass bastard, we stuck to tee shirts and shorts. But whenever I slept over, and I did almost every night, we shared a room. I didn't like being alone at night.
I shrugged my shoulders. "She's nice. Quiet but nice," I said honestly. Bella was nice. We spent our time in the kitchen talking about Edward. Well, I did. She just laughed.
Edward nodded. "Yeah." And then he smiled. He rarely smiled like that. I think the last time I had seen him smile like that was when Luc called him Edward and then tottered over to him to place a wet and sloppy but sweet kiss on his cheek.
He turned to look at me with a weird smile. "What did you mean when you said 'so this is the Alice'?"
I giggled. "Something."
Edward pouted. He was such a baby sometimes. "Come on! Tell me." He begged.
"I don't think Jasper would like it if I told you. Why don't you ask him?"
He snorted. "I rather not."
He looked at me like if I was disappointing him. Hmph.
We sat around until well past midnight. He rambled away about Bella. It was cute seeing him all flushed and excited about someone.
"Like I said Cullen, ask her to marry you already." I grinned.
Rolling his eyes, Edward scoffed. "One date doesn't mean marriage Rosalie. Besides, it was hardly a date. Emmett and Alice were breathing down my neck the entire time. Well Emmett was. Alice was yapping away about how something unexpected was going to happen. But anwyas, I didn't even touch Bella. At. All." He nodded his head to convinve me that he hadn't at all touched her.
I giggled. "Oh the horror." He chuckled along with me.
We went to bed soon after that. Nothing amazing in my dreams. The weekend wore on. I didn't ask Jasper anything Alice related knowing he'd get annoyed and shut me out like he always did. Edward didn't mention it either. Lucas was fasinated with all things Jasper. It was adorable. He followed Jasper around, asking question after question about from what his favorite color to why he drank coffee every two hours. Jasper was patient with Luc and seemed to be enjoying Lucas' question and company.
Monday morning came around. Lucas was staying with Esme or how he loved to call her Nana Essie. Esme smiled widely every time he called her that. Everything was going alright until lunch came.
I sat down at mine and Edward's usual table at the corner of the cafeteria by the windows. I didn't like having everyone's eyes on me. They whispered and gossiped and it pissed me off. Especially Tanya and her blonde whores. Tanya was convinved she had to 'take me down' since I was making moves on her man. I had laughed so hard when I first heard that. First of all, ew. It's Edward. The kid who I saw as another brother. The kid who cried when he first had a wet dream because he thought he'd be taken out like a dog. He was such a weirdo. Anyways. He's attractive, I know that, but he'still that little boy who bullied me endlessly about having 'weird' eyes. He was my little ginger. Second, he wasn't a man. He was a perverted seventeen year old. Edward Cullen was a man child. Third reason was because Edward didn't even talk to Tanya unless she talked to him first.
Can't stay at home, can't stay at school
Old folks say, ya poor little fool
Down the street I'm the girl next door
I'm the fox you've been waiting for
Hello Daddy, hello Mom
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb
Hello world I'm your wild girl
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb
Stone age love and strange sounds too
Come on baby let me get to you
Bad nights cause'n teenage blues
Get down ladies you've got nothing to lose
Cherie Currie went on to say hello to her dad and then her mom and confirmed herself as their cherry bomb when someone's try full of food slammed down across from me. I jumped, startled. It was Emmett. He was smiling with those super cute dimples of his softening me up.
"The Runaways. They were hot." He declared, sitting down.
I stared at him. "What?"
He looked at me. "That was Cherry Bomb, right?" He raised an eyebrow.
I nodded. Almost no one knew the Runaways. They hadn't been such a huge hit here in the states as in Japan. It surprised me that Emmett knew them but then his earlier comment registered in my head. Of course.
"Why are you sitting here?" I demanded. Edward hadn't mentioned the union of lunch tables now that he and Bella were seeing each other. They had gone to the park with Lucas and Jasper on Saturday while I worked and on Sunday, they had gone to Barnes and Noble in Port Angeles. Edward had ran into my room to tell me how his day had been with her after he dropped her off.
He shrugged. "Alice said too. She's a scary thing if you don't listen to her."
I laughed since I could so see that. Esme was like that. "I understand."
Emmett grinned at me. His blue eyes sparkly and bright. He stared right at me, making me squirm under his gaze. There was something about this kid. The way he looked at me. It was as if I was the only thing in his view. Like i was the most precious and amazing thing to every walk this earth. He didn't gwanked at me like others did. Men especially. They looked at me like if I was a piece of meat.
I looked back down at my iPod in my hands, looking for a new song to listen to.
I tremble
They're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They're gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Help I'm alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse the pace is on a runaway train
Help I'm alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
It was funny that she sang about hearts beating like hammers. Mine was right at this moment. I could feel Emmett's stare on me and for the first time in my life, I blushed. Yes, I had pulled a Bella. That girl blushed at the snap of a finger.
"Rosalie!"
I looked up, praying that my face wasn't pink. I heard Emmett chuckle. Fuck! Then I saw Alice. She was stumbling over to the table looking nervous and distracted. Oh God, do me a solid and let that be the cause of Emmett's laughter.
"Emmett, where's Bella?" Alice smacked him upside the head, smirking in satisfaction as he rubbed his head.
Emmett shrugged.
"Oh you're no help." Alice pouted. She sat down. "I have to talk to you," she explained to me before I could even ask.
"About what?" Emmett butted in, earning him a growl in responce from Alice.
"Somthing private!" She screeched.
Emmett looked her over. His cheeks turned pink as he whisper, "Do you need a tampon or something? I'm sure Mrs. Cope can give you one."
I busted out laughing. That was the cutest but dumbest thing to ever say to a girl who was clearly frustrated and pissed.
Emmett blushed even more. I could see the resemblance to Bella now.
"NO YOU FUCKTARD!"
Bella pulled the chair between me and Alice and looked nervously at her friends. "Uh, hi." She squeaked out. She glanced at me but I was too busy laughing at Alice pulling Emmett's ear to answer her. She shrugged as if saying 'whatever' and took out her lunch.
Alice noticed Bella's presence so without a moment's hesitation, she pulled Bella and me out of our chairs and dragged us out of the cafeteria. We left Emmett's booming laughter behind and passed a confused Edward when he saw Alice pulling me by my shirt but then he smiled when he saw Bella. Bella blushed.
"See you later Rosie!" He laughed at my scowl and winked at Bella before walking into the cafeteria. Asshole. He didn't even follow to make sure Bella and I were going to be okay with Angry Alice tearing down the hallway with us stumbling along.
We entered the girls' bathroom.
"Alice?" I took a close step toward her, afraid she might bite my head off.
She kicked open every stall door, checking to see if anyone was inside with us. Then she locked the door. What the fuck?
"Is she always like this?" I asked.
Bella shrugged. "She can get paranoid when she wants to talk about something important."
I only nodded.
Alice came back and looked us straight in the eye.
"I love Jasper."
"What?" Bella's eyes grew wide and I just smirked.
"I know," I informed them as I pulled myself on the counter under the window where extra toilet paper, girly necessities, and paper towels were. Alice and Bella turned to look at me, shocked.
"What about James?" Bella shook her head and leaned against the sinks.
"I-I broke up with him this morning." Alice looked at me as she said her next sentence. "So I could be with your brother."
