"So what do you think?" Henry perched himself onto the hood of his beautiful car. "Well...Congratulations,your driving isn't as maniacal as mine." Henry laughed. "Seattle?" he suggested. I nodded. "Let's go." We got back into the car and prepared for the long drive.

"Well,if it isn't the tart again." I forced myself to smile at Henry's gran. "How are you,Mrs Delaney?Good?" She squinted at me. "Go away." I glanced sideways at Henry. "So sorry," he mouthed. I shrugged. "What are you shrugging for?I'd love for you to stay and chat,missy,but Henry here has better friends to spend time with.So goodbye,good day,bueno adios,au revoir,GO AWAY!"

"Gran,please don't talk to Rosalie like that.She's not going anywhere.Now where's my bag?" Old gran scowled at Henry. "You've gone to the bad side,sonny.In my day youngsters wouldn't dare talk back to their elders.There was plenty of respect and manners didn't cost a penny.Now - " she continued to ramble on. In the end,she slammed the door in our faces and Henry had to climb to his window to get his bag.

"She's kinda eccentric,huh?" I said. "Nope.She's a nutter like the rest of 'em.My whole family's the pits.Not that I care.I did appreciate my dad stealing cool cars,though.Now he doesn't do any of that,he's into real estate,so I've got NOTHING to be thankful for!" Henry paused. "Except you." I grinned. "Really?Why thank you.Unfortunately I say the same."

We spent the rest of the day strolling around the city and chatting.That is, until someone bumped into us. "Hey,watch it,douche face!" said the guy who bumped into us.He resembled some kind of street thug. "Who you callin' douch face?You're the one who bumped into us!" "Me?Why you *beep*!YOU bumped into ME!*Beep*!*Beep*!" (Beeps are swear words)

"Who says?" Henry yelled. The thug guy was about to protest but received a punch in the face. "Henry!What are you DOING?" I demanded.The thug guy was freaking rude all right,but he was probably drunk.Not that being drunk was a good excuse. Henry shoved the thug guy out of the way and we got going. "Never knew you have a nasty temper," I commented.

"You don't know a lot of things about me," Henry replied grudgingly. I tilted my chin upwards.We walked in silence for a while. "Look,Rose,I'm sorry.I really do have one horrible temper.My dad thought it was FUNNY.So I made it worse until he realized it wasn't so funny anymore."

"What are you implying?" I was confused. "I haven't been entirely truthful to you.The reason I was sent here was to keep me separated from my dad. We used to fight all the time because he was abusive and I'm not a pushover like my mom. One night he was drunk and we had another massive row.One of my punches landed him in hospital.He crashed through the window.It was bad.He's in a coma now.He and my mom...their both back at New York.I'm sorry I lied."

"So...Everything...Was a lie?" "NO!Not everything!My dad really was a car thief!He had a team of his own.And he IS a real estate agent now.Well...when he gets out of his coma.I have a temper problem.It comes with my dad's genes.My mom sent me into anger management last year,but it didn't work.Then after the incident,I was lucky I didn't get into juvy. I came here instead.And somehow,Rose,you're helping me."

"Am I?" "Yeah.Definitely." I didn't know what to feel.Shocked?No.I wasn't shocked.I didn't pity Henry.Pity was really the last thing he needed. But I was glad that I could help.I liked him,he was my friend. "I never would've guessed," I stated. "Only happens when I'm angry and I never am when you're around," Henry merely replied.

"What about your gran?" "My gran?" He released a chuckle. "She has a way of getting on my nerves,yes,she makes me so irritated and annoyed and fed up but...surprisingly,never angry." "Wow,that's weird,cuz she doesn't make me angry either,just awkward." "Yeah and she says plenty of stuff to you." I shook my head. "My mom's worse.She makes me feel like being mean.She makes me wanna hit stuff.Hit people.Ground them under my shoes." "Same as my dad."

Lloyd called.I couldn't imagine why.I hadn't exactly been warm to him.In fact - just the opposite.It was Saturday,mom was out at God knows where and I was staying home,bored.Then the phone rang.

"Rosalie speaking."
"Hey,Rosalie?Um..."
"Who's this?"
"It's Lloyd.I just called to - "
"Lloyd?Oh yeah...Called to what?What d'you want?"
"Just wanted to invite you to the hospital."
"And why would I want to go to the hospital?"
"To visit Bella Swan.Your bio partner."
"Yeah,I know who Bella is,you don't have to remind me."
"Oh.So you coming or not?"
"Why are we visiting Bella?"
"She got hit by a truck?"

After all the activity with Henry,I'd completely forgotten about Bella in hospital.It made me feel guilty.I was out there having fun,while...she was in a coma.

"Oh..." I said. "So is she better?"
"I don't know.She's still unconscious,if that's what you mean.But we all feel bad about it so we're gonna visit and bring some stuff,y'know," Lloyd replied.

"Ok," I stated. "I'll come with you."
"Great!Can I pick you up later?Bout four?"
"That'd be alrite," I agreed.
We hung up.

(4 p.m.)
"Hi,Rose!" Lloyd was all cheerful again.I nodded in reply,wrapping my jacket tighter around me.The weather was so cold there was frost in the trees.I sat in the passenger seat of Lloyd's car with his three friends at the back. "These are Brian,Lucy and Cammie," Lloyd introduced. "Hi," I said. "Hi," they replied.There was an awkward silence.It was broken by the crackling sound of Lloyd's ancient stereo being turned on.

I moved my head a little so I could properly see how Brian,Lucy and Cammie looked like. Brian was pale-skinned with freckles and light brown hair in a crewcut,Lucy was petite and brunette with large green eyes and Cammie was pretty and dirty blonde.I noticed they'd brought lots of stuff,gifts,I think,for Bella.

We reached the hospital and went up to the reception counter to ask directions to Bella's room. "This is the first time we're visiting her," Lloyd explained. "We weren't close to her.I mean,we hardly even spoke to her. Her friends were always Jessica,Angela,the lot." We went up to Bella's room and there she was,all pale and fragile,with a breathing mask over her face.

Lloyd placed all the stuff on a desk beside the bed. "Hi,Bella." he said.The others shifted their weight awkwardly. "She's in a coma,Lloyd.She can't hear you," said Lucy. "Actually,she might be able to.I've read all this in the internet about coma patients - " "Well I'm only doing it cuz its what people do...with coma patients...in the,uh,movies," Lloyd admitted,interrupting Brian.

I didn't say anything.I wished I hadn't come at all.Thankfully,we were saved by a doctor entering the room. "Well,kids,its nice of you all to visit Ms Swan,she hasn't had any visitors apart from her father." I looked up at the soft,smooth and honeyed voice.And froze.The doctor...was I don't know, indescribable.He was stunning!In the same way as the Cullens.

Was he the infamous Dr Cullen then?I got my answer when everyone else said "Yes,Dr Cullen." I glanced at them and while Lloyd and Brian's eyes were on Bella,Lucy and Cammie were practically drooling at the incredible, unearthly beauty that was Dr Cullen.

Author's note
I made Rose describe Carlisle that way cuz I love him but anyway,back to the story:)

My phone rang.The caller ID said it was dad. I left the room to answer it. "Dad?Is everything ok?"
"Yeah of course,baby,I just wanted to see how you were doing.Hear.Hear how you're doing."
I laughed. "I'm fine,dad."
"Did you make any friends?"
"Yeah,I'm with them right now,actually.At the hospital."
"What!Why are you at hospital?"
"Visiting a friend.She's in a coma,got hit by a truck."
"Oh.That must be bad."
"So how are you?Got a new job?"
"I did.At this company...its boring but I manage to feed myself,at least."
"That's not good enough.What about the rent?Bills?Transportation?"
"Not to worry,Rosie.I'm not exactly...paying on time,but - "
"Not paying on time?Dad,if I hear you get kicked out of the apartment,I'm coming back to Rochester to make sure you're doing well again.Besides,I'm sure mom is pretty happy without me."
"Ok,ok." I could hear dad's chuckle. "I gotta go,Rose.Call you back."

I slipped the phone back in my pocket and leaned against the wall outside Bella's door. "Everything ok?" I glanced at Dr Cullen. "Yes.How's uh...Bella?"
"She's good.No,not really.She's stable.But I can't really determine when,or if,she will gain consciousness." I nodded. "Well,I hope it turns out ok.I was there,at the accident." "I know.Alice told me about you."

She did?I thought. "How are they then?Alice,Edward,Jasper and Emmett?Good?" Dr Cullen nodded.His eyes were so warm.He smiled kindly. "It was nice to meet you,Rosalie." "You too,Dr Cullen."

Author's note
Hope you enjoyed!I know what to write for the next chapter,but I have NO IDEA if Rose should be romantically involved with anyone.Emmett's already with Alice but Edward,Jasper,Henry and if you want Jacob,are single.Carlisle's single too.I know Lloyd mentioned in the start that there was a Mrs Cullen but that was totally false.It would seem weird,though,if a 20-something year old had adopted kids all on his own,right?So they invented Mrs Cullen and said she was traveling the whole time.It was Alice's idea.Esme doesn't exist here,unfortunately.So please let me know in your comments if you want to read about Rose with anyone!

you should put her with... Jasper but have her be with Henry first like her first love then something happens to her and Jasper takes her to Carlisle to have him turn her. and she still hates what she is but is glad that she has Jasper and hurts at the same time cause she hurt Henry!

Love that idea!Here's the next post:)

"You know,I think we should go out some time.Spend time together.Like a mother daughter outing," mom suggested."Why?" I asked,turning the volume of my Ipod down a little so I could hear her. "Well,since you came here we've had our ups and downs and I just want you to know that I still care about you no matter what," mom replied.I couldn't believe her. "Huh," was all I said. She kept on. "I thought we could drive down to Port Angeles and have a little shopping spree.You'd like that,won't you?"

"I...guess," was my answer.She seemed satisfied. "Good.Then how about Saturday?" I wasn't too keen,and I wasn't sure if it was only because she was in a good mood,but one chance given to her wouldn't hurt,right? "Okay." "Wonderful.I can't wait,Rosie." "Uh-huh," I responded.
...........................................................................................
"You did WHAT?" Henry exclaimed. "I agreed.Hey,it can't hurt,right?" Henry looked at me sideways. "Do you even remember where you got that scar?In fact,all the scars.Do you?" I flinched back. "How do you know I have scars?" "Oh please.You think I don't pay attention to everything you say?Each and every word I hear from you is locked up in my mind,Rose. It's in the memory,I tell you.Like when you told me about the time she threw a glass beer bottle at you and it broke?"

"So WHAT?" I sneered. "I hate her,ok?She was always landing me in the emergency ward.And she hasn't changed much but you know what's changed?Its me!And she won't ever have a chance to hurt me AGAIN!I'm not afraid." The silence after my outburst lasted a few minutes. Then Henry pointed at my shoulder. "There.The beer bottle scar,its right there,right?From what you told me,I can guess."

When I didn't reply,he slowly pushed my sweater downwards to reveal a thin,jagged-looking scar a bit like a birthmark. "I was thirteen.I don't remember much before that,but the bottle incident is crystal clear in my mind.She was drunk," I confessed. "She got angry because I caught her in the living room pouring some sort of drug into her liquor.I was just looking.Then she got up,screamed at me for being a nosy bitch always prying into other people's business and she threw it at me.

"I dodged but it crashed against the window pane and the shards landed on me." Henry patted my back sympathetically. "I know," he simply said. "You don't really wanna go out with her,right?" I shook my head. "I just needed to prove to myself that I'm strong enough.You know,to face her.I hate feeling weak.It reminds me too much of the old days and I can't have that."

Henry wrapped his arms around me and held on. "You can always turn to me,like you did today.I'm here."

Author's note
In case you haven't noticed,I created Henry after the child Rosalie so loved and wanted.Vera's son,Henry who was mentioned in Eclipse.:):):)Back to the story!

The school was buzzing the next day.Apparently they were having a dance to celebrate the start of spring.All the guys were picking girls to partner with and the girls were dropping hints to the guys they wanted to go with.Lloyd was going with Cammie.I decided that I wasn't too fond of Cammie.She was an attention lover,end of story.Attention lovers don't sit well with me.

Nobody asked me to the dance and I had no friends besides Lloyd,plus Henry hated dances so I wasn't going to force him to come with me.In History I sat next to Alice Cullen as usual,she was usually quiet and never spoke to me,not even to discuss our work so I wondered why she decided to talk that day.

"It sounds interesting,doesn't it,the Civil War?"
I looked her way,surprised."Yeah,I s'ppose."
"Are you going to the dance?" she changed the subject abruptly.
"I don't think so," I replied.
"Oh," she said.

That was the end of our almost non existent conversation.Way to go,Rosalie Hale.Dis you have to sound so unfriendly?Lunchtime arrived and I had no appetite.None at all.So I sat at my table with my beloved Crime and Punishment on my lap and read.The words felt dead.I finished a sentence and grumbled about how not in the mood I was today and slammed the book onto the table.Edward Cullen snickered.What was so damn funny?!

I felt like crap and he was his usual Edweirdo self.He snickered again.Damn you!I thought.This time he looked at me with an amused expression on his face.I glared at him,sending daggers in the air and transferred my gaze to the rest of the cafeteria.Stupid school.The students could all rot in hell for all I cared.I hardly cared much anymore.

Seeing others happy was just weird because I NEVER got to have that happiness.At least not when Henry was absent.Like we said all the time,life sucks and then you die.Utterly PATHETIC.All caps.Sheesh.

I hate this chapter cuz I didn't feel good writing it plus it'd be nice to get more comments but anyway..............................................hope you enjoyed!

"I was wondering..." Lloyd began. "What?" I snapped.He looked startled. "Um,you ok?" "Perfect," I replied sarcastically.He rolled his eyes. "Wanna drive down to La Push with Brian,Cammie and Lucy tomorrow?" "La Push?" I repeated. "Yeah.They have beaches there.We could go cliff-diving." At the mention of cliff- diving,I grinned slyly. "You're on." "Great!" Lloyd exclaimed. I have this thing about dangerous sports,that's all.

The next day,I woke up to the sound of Lloyd's car honking. "Shit!" I had no time to get ready. I rushed into the bathroom and brushed my teeth,pulling off my clothes at the same time.I changed into my two piece bathing suit with a white dress carelessly thrown over and my jacket and sandals.Lloyd's horn sounded again.After quickly combing my hair,I sprinted down the stairs and out into the driveway.

"Sorry,slept in," I explained,smiling as Lloyd opened the passenger side door for me. "Good morning to you too.Did you notice the sun?" "Its a good sign," Lucy stated. "Hopefully it'll last long," I replied,though I actually didn't mind a little cooling weather that day.

We reached La Push faster than I thought. "Oh look,their having a bonfire," said Lloyd,pointing at a stake where several natives from the reservation were gathered. "A bonfire?How ridiculous," Cammie complained. "Who likes the smell of smoke?" Nobody bothered to reply her. "What are we doing first?" asked Brian. "Let's get wet,mah brother!" Lloyd shrieked,shrugging out of his shirt to reveal his white skin.

A few other people were already at the beach,splashing in the waves and enjoying the sun. Cammie immediately started applying sun screen.Didn't she like a little tan?Lloyd and Brian ran screaming to the water,their fun was contagious. Lucy and I glanced at each other for a moment. "Race ya!" Lucy cried. "Agreed!" We stripped down to our bathing suits and ran,laughing crazily.

"Take that!" Brian yelled,flinging a bunch of water at Lucy. "Oi!I'm getting back at ya!" They chased each other to the deeper parts. "LLOYD!"
"Oops,you better see to your girlfriend," I told Lloyd.He grumbled begrudgingly and glared at me,making his way towards a frowning Cammie. I headed towards the deeper waters where I could swim in peace.

Author's note
This is the part where she meets Jacob!Oooh!

Man,that was a fish!Big one too.I remembered the time dad almost drowned when he attempted at going fishing.We were in a boat and something big tugged at his rod,until the boat tipped over and dad fell head first into the ocean waves.I spotted something black,a sea urchin or something.Curious,I swam further and bumped into something huge.OW!

I immediately rose upwards,coughing and spluttering as I went.Then I opened my eyes and there was a man.Well,a boy.Remotely attractive.With the same tan all the other natives on the reserve had.Cropped black hair and dark eyes,staring at me in surprise.And an increasing pain in my foot.

"What the..?What were you doing?" I demanded. "Swimming!" the boy replied,defensive. "What about YOU?" he challenged. "I was swimming too,you idiot!Look what you did!" I dove back underwater and plucked the stupid sea urchin out of my foot. "I am poisoned,you fool!You made me step onto a sea urchin!" "What the HELL?You're not supposed to hold it!" he screeched,shaking it out of my grip. "So what?I'm already poisoned! Look!"

I lifted my foot and pulled out the ends of the sea urchin's spikes. "Sheesh!"
"Oh my God!Are you ok?" the boy yelled. "Now you ask me!" We quarreled like that in the water until he shoved me and made me step on the fricking sea urchin AGAIN. "OW!God dammit!" I screamed. "Who are you,you stupid bluthering idiot who made me step on a sea urchin TWICE!"

"I'm Jacob Black," the boy responded solemnly. "Rosalie Hale," I said,swimming with much difficulty to the shore then limping towards land. I dropped onto the sun and looked up at the sky. When I looked back down, Jacob was eyeing me warily. "What are you staring at,pervert?" I screeched.

"A girl who just got stung by a sea urchin,blondie!" "Do you have a car?" I demanded. "Yes!" I opened my mouth to say something else when Jacob cut me off by saying, "I'll drive you to the hospital!" He propped me up and helped me to where I placed my stuff and watched as I threw on my dress and jacket. "Where's your car,Black?" "Over there,Hale!" It was hilarious,we were enemies and friends at the same time.

He drove me to the hospital and got me into a ward.And guess what?Woe betide me,the Cullens were there with their adopted father. "Move it,Black!You're slowing me down!" "Rosalie?" Dr Cullen exclaimed. "What happened?" "You know him?" asked Edweirdo,jerking his head at Jacob. "Yeah,we just met just now when Black here bumped into me when I was swimming and made me step on a sea urchin." "Twice," Jacob corrected.

"Yeah,twice." Emmett and Jasper started sniggering while Edward glared at Jacob,who avoided his gaze. I couldn't help a yelp escaping when Dr Cullen pulled the spike ends out of my foot with a plier. "You need a jap to get rid of the poison." "Uuuuuugggghhhhhh," I groaned. "Why are you here anyway?" I asked the Cullens. "We're visiting Bella Swan," Alice replied. I saw Jacob flinch. "How is she?" he whispered. "Fine," Edweirdo drawled with a hint of sarcasm.

"Ready?" asked Dr Cullen,needle in hand. "As always," I replied. Oh man the needle was thick! "I'm getting even,Black!" I pointed an accusing finger at Jacob. "No chance,Blondie!" "La Push is only 15 minutes away from Forks," I reminded him. "Still no chance." "Idiot." "Blondie." "That the only word you know?" "Call your mom." "She's asleep." "Call her." If looks could kill,he'd be long dead. Edweirdo chuckled.

"I know,the idea of Black here dying is so fun,right?" Jacob rolled his eyes. "Where's you cell phone?I said call your mom." "She wouldn't care," I replied,truthfully this time. Dr Cullen was busy wrapping a bandage around my foot,pretending not to notice all the other scars there.They were small scars,hardly damaging my good looks,but they were numerous all the same.And I would never forget how much pain each of them had brought me in the past.

Except for some,which I had no idea I had gotten. Edweirdo shot me a meaningful look.I smiled at him.Truly Edweirdo,he was.My phone rang. "Rosalie speaking." "Where are you?" asked Lloyd's frantic voice. "Hospital.I got stung by a sea urchin." "Twice," Jacob corrected. "Twice," I repeated. "Oh.Too bad," said Lloyd,and hung up.I smirked, slipping the phone into my pocket.He thought I was bluffing him.

You're welcome!Sorry this post is late,i had to go graduate from primary yesterday!anyway....

"Ow.Ouch.This is all your fault...I swear I will get my revenge for this,Jacob Black!" "Yeah yeah..." Jacob muttered,carefully supporting me as I limped out of the ward. "Move,Jacob," I heard Edweirdo hiss.Jacob glared at him. "You move," he retorted.Edweirdo glanced at me. "I'll drive you home,Rosalie.It's just a short way.I'm sure Jacob has to go back to his tribe."

"Tribe?" Jacob sneered.Edweirdo rolled his eyes. "Go home,mutt." "Scuse me?" I cut in. "What did you just call him?" Jacob might have made me step on a sea urchin,but he was my friend.What right did Edweirdo have to refer to him as a stray dog? "Nothing,Rosalie,you better go with Edward," said Jacob.He was backing down?What the hell? "No," I replied. "I'd rather walk home than ride in a car with someone like you." I jerked my head at Edweirdo,scowled at him and grabbed Jacob's arm.

"Walk me to the exit." "Ok." He looked so goddamn surprised. "What? You think I can't defy another person?" I challenged. "Uh...Usually chicks don't contradict Edward Cullen." "I'm not a 'chick' , idiot." "Whatever." We threw mock insults at each other the whole drive home,but it didn't matter because they didn't mean anything.There was no venom behind each word. "What has Edweird- Edward,have against you?" I asked when we reached my house.

Jacob hesitated. "Not sure I wanna talk about this." "Fine with me.Wanna come in?" "We just met," he protested. "So?We're not strangers.You think I'm gonna let you mug me?" "Ok,ok,I'll come in."
Mom wasn't home.Thank God. "So you live with your parents?" Jacob asked.What sort of question was that?Did he think I lived with a bunch of drug dealers or something? "Um,uh-huh.I live with my mom.You thank your lucky stars she's not home."

"Why?Is she totally overprotective or something?The kind that's 'no boys in the house' ?" "No.Worse than that.You'll find out...maybe." "So what grade are you?" "Senior.You?" "I'm 16." "Really?" He could pass for 20 if it wasn't for his boyish face.

We exchanged phone numbers the Jacob left.I had no intention to be home when mom returned. Dr Cullen had advised me to rest as much as I could because of my foot,but I'm not one to take orders all the time. Still...the jap was making me drowsy so I fell asleep.

And guess what?Mom never came home.Hallelujah!The next day at school just plain sucked. Lloyd ignored me as did his buddies,I ignored them (its my stupid ego) and there was a rain storm plus the Mercury wouldn't start again so I had to walk in the rain. Edweirdo kept on staring at me,though I wouldn't look at him.I wouldn't look at anyone,for that matter.I felt like a withering plant.Dead and dry.

Which encouraged my motto even more:Life sucks,and then you die!

I couldn't wait to die.What was there to be grateful of in my life?Sure there was dad and Henry and maybe even Jacob but how could I compare them to each and every feeling of pain and loneliness I suffered?

The next day,Forks was buzzing with the news that Bella Swan had regained consciousness and was indeed alive.
