Sisterly Love [Rosalie/Bella]

[Alice Cullen]

Alice paced her room back and forth anxiously. Looking outside of her window, she saw the forest and even further into the mountains where a couple of deer were grazing. It had not been long since she last hunted, so she knew that it wasn't hunger that was driving her nuts. It was the consistent unknowing of what was going to happen. Her visions had been so off lately because of her emotional unrest, but she had not really let anyone know because they all relied on her so much to keep them updated on any danger that might threaten the family in the near future. Looking around, she walked to her dresser where there were tons of photo frames. There was a picture of their whole family, just after Bella had joined them in immortality and Renesmee had been born. They all looked so happy back then, especially herself. Other pictures framed that particular one. Pictures of Renesmee as a child and then growing up, pictures of Rose and Emmett, Edward and Bella, and even one of Renesee, Jacob, and Alicia.

Thinking of her family, she felt her body freeze as a vision hit her. It was one of the most powerful ones she had felt in a long time. When she came out of it, a smile spread across her face. For the first time in a while, she had hope. Moving her hand, she rested it on her choker that was lying on the dresser next to the photographs. She had not worn it really since her return from Florida. Picking it up, she placed it around her neck and felt a sense of completeness, like it had been the missing link to something. Walking out of her room, she turned down the hall and quietly walked to Emmett and Rosalie's room, hoping that her sister would be in there. Knocking on the door, she called out softly. "Rose?"

[Rosalie Hale]

Rosalie was in Maden's room hanging up some new clothes that she had bought from him, when she heard Alice's light little voice from the hall. She knew that Alice was looking for her in her room, but she was not there. "I am in Maden's room, Alice." She said in her normal voice knowing that Alice would hear her. That was one thing about being a vampire that was great, you never had to worry about screaming. They all had super hearing and could hear the slightest of noices. Rosalie finished hanging the clothes for Maden and removed the ones that were now to small for him. He was growning so fast that she was always changing out his clothes.

Rosalie then walked out of Maden's room and closed his door. "What's up Alice? You seem to be in a better mood." Rosalie said to her sister as she turned to face her. Rosalie and Alice had not spent that much time together since Jasper's return. Rosalie knew that Alice understood that Jasper's was Rosalie's closest sibling and the one that she spent the most time with next to her Emmett. Rosalie then saw Alice's face and the look in her eyes. Rosalie knew that look and knew that Alice had seen something. That instantly set off alarms in Rosalie's head. "Alice, what did you see? Is trouble coming?" Rosalie said to Alice. Rosalie knew that Alice's visions were the families forewarning to danger. Things had just started to settle down, so Rosalie knew to expect the worst when it came to their family.

[Alice Cullen]

Hearing Rosalie from her nephew's room, Alice waited patiently while her sister finished whatever business she had in there. She knew that Rosalie would be surprised to see her being that their time was mostly spent apart now days. Alice understood that Rose would be spending most of her time with Jasper or Emmett anyways, so she stuck to her solitude most of the time or would go visit Renesmee and the baby or even go talk with Bella. It had been a rare thing for her to spend time with Rosalie even when the family was all together back before Bella joined them, but that was only because Alice and Rosalie's personalities were so different. Where Rosalie was conceited and perfectly fine being vain, Alice was extrverted, bubbly, and loved being in the middle of everything.

When Rosalie came out of the other room, she looked as surprised to see her as Alice expected. "I am in somewhat of a better mood," she said. "Mostly because I've been spending time with Renesmee and Alicia." Alice thought to her niece and goddaughter, knowing each of them was a blessing. However, when Rosalie's look switched to concern, Alice knew she could tell that she'd had a vision. When Rosalie immediately began asking if something was wrong, Alice shook her head and tried to calm her sister down. "No, no, no"" she said quickly. "Nothing is wrong and nothing is coming. My vision has given me a more positive outlook for the future and that things are going to improve for the family." Alice hoped that her explanation would relieve her sister of the worry that came with the visions normally.

[Rosalie Hale]

Rosalie calmed when Alice said that the vision was not one to be concerned about. Rosalie was vain most of the time, but when it came to Alice's vision's she took them very seriously. Rosalie did not have any special power's for a vampire, but she knew the trust the ones that her siblings had. Rosalie had always relied on her siblings when it came to knowing what was going on around them. She knew that Edward was always listening for danger in other's thoughts and Alice would see if danger was coming. She also knew that Jasper was great a defusing situations with his ability to control emotions.

Once she was completely calm, Rose started to wonder what Alice wanted wit her. It was no secret in the family that Rose and Alice were not that close. Rose was closest to Jasper and Alice was closest to Edward, before Bella came along. "So what did you want with me, Alice?" Rosalie said in normal wind chime voice. Rose was not sure what Alice would want with her. Most of the time they tried to avoid each other, unless other's were around. Beside Alice knew that Rose would always take Jasper's side over hers. Rose knew that Jasper and Alice were having problems and she really hoped that Alice did not want to talk about them.

[Bella Cullen]

Bella wiped the dust that had fallen onto her as she pushed the box higher into the closet. Ever since Jasper had come home, Bella had been busy around the cottage to occupy herself until everyone was settled. A small frown came across her lips as she thought of Jasper for a small moment. She still didn't feel that she had apologized to him sufficiently and was looking forward to a time where they could talk to each other one on one. She sighed as she put her hands in her back pockets and walks out of the closet and towards her bedroom. Bella looked out the window for a small moment before her mind flickered back to her Rosalie. She had been spending an increasingly large amount of her time with Edward, Renesmee and Alicia, and of course whenever Alice stopped by. But someone that Bella hadn't gotten to see in a while was Rosalie. Bella scratched the side of her neck before she stepped away from the window, deciding to pay a visit to Rosalie to see how she had been handling things. She knew that she had such a close connection to Jasper, and wanted Rosalie to know that she was there for her through anything.


Bella took off into a sprint, taking in small breaths of air to calm herself as reached the mansion. She stepped in slowly, careful to wipe her shoes off so that Esme wouldn't be too upset with dirty floors. Bella looked up as she took in the scent of both of her sisters and gave a small lift of her eyebrow. Bella shut the door quietly before she looked up the stairs and made her way up. As she turned the corner she could see Alice standing outside of Rosalie's room. Her initial reaction was that Alice must have had some sort of vision, that something else was going to go wrong. Before a groan could escape, Bella looked up into Alice's eyes and could tell that everything was fine. Alice had an indescribable ability to say so much through her eyes. Bella instantly felt guilty for thinking that the only reason Alice and Rosalie would talk to one another would be that something had gone wrong, but there was no denying the small amount of tension she felt as she walked up to them. A small smile came across Bella's face as she looked up at Rosalie, "Hey," She said quietly as she took in a quick breath, placing back her smile. There was so much that she wanted to say; How have you been feeling over everything, I'm sorry that it might seem like I haven't been here for you through this entire situation. She licked her lips before she looked back to Alice, knowing that she wouldn't say anything about Jasper in front of her. She placed her hands on her hips, feeling slightly uncomfortable for a moment before she leaned against the wall. She looked between Alice and Rosalie, "No plans for today?" It felt normal being this casual with Alice, they had had personal conversations over the past few weeks. Bella had been hoping to have one with Rosalie today, but she didn't mind Alice being around, though it did amaze her at how uncomfortable it made her feel to be standing with each of them.

Bella ran her tongue over her teeth as she looked between them. She knew that Rosalie had sided with Jasper, and she also knew that if the situation was reversed, Alice would have likely sided with Emmett. She pursed her lips for a moment, wondering how Esme was handling what seemed like everyone in the family siding up with someone else. In Bella's opinion, they had all wronged Jasper. They all had reason to be sorry, and she felt incredibly guilty for her part in hurting not only him, but watching the pain that his absence put on not only Alice, but Rosalie. As much as she tried to stay neutral, she wasn't sure that her sisters saw it the same way.

[Alice Cullen]

Alice sighed and looked around the room. It had been some time since she had really talked to Rosalie and part of her felt like she owed Rosalie something for taking care of Jasper when she could not. Trying to form her words in her head, Alice thought through all the times she had spent with Bella. She knew that Bella was her twin soul and sister. Even though they were complete and total opposites, she adored and loved Bella as though they had been born of the same mother. However, that only made her feel guilty because Rosalie was technically her sister first. Alice had always understood her sister's need to be the most beautiful one and the vanity behind that because of her human life. When she and Jasper first joined the Cullen family, she wanted to share that sisterly bond with Rosalie, but they had never really found common ground.

Before she could reply to Rosalie's question, she heard Bella come into the room. As her other sister apprached them, she smiled at how easy it was to be around Bella. "Hi Bella," she greeted happily. Having her other sister there diffused some of the awkwardness that Alice felt being around Rosalie. Looking at Bella, she decided to answer her question first and semi-answer Rosalie's at the same time. "I actually just came over to talk because I feel like I haven't really been around lately." Alice was genuinely glad that Bella had come because she knew that things would flow a little easier now. Looking back to Rosalie, she smiled a little. "You two are my sisters and I just wanted to spend a little time with you since I have felt so distant from the family as of late."

[Bella Cullen]

Bella placed on a quick smile as Alice began talking and gave a small nod of her explanation for being there and not really having plans for the day. " That's great. I was sort of feeling the same way, I was on my way to visit Rose," Her eyes flew over to Rosalie and she gave a soft smile, hoping that Rosalie would understand that there was so much she wanted to say but that she couldn't exactly do it in this moment, not without causing tension. Which is the last thing she was sure any of them wanted. "But you're here, that's great," She looked back to Alice as she spoke and gave a warm smile. A small piece of her wished that Renesmee had felt the same way as Alice appeared to be feeling; she was so worried that she was going to ostracize herself from the family intentionally in just trying to protect Alicia.

Bella leaned against the door frame as she clicked her tongue silently before looking back at Rosalie and not being able to contain the smile that instantly fled to her. Rosalie was without a doubt one of the most beautiful people she had yet to see. Each of the Cullens were beautiful in their own right; but Rosalie was in her own league. Her mind flooded with things that the three of them might be able to enjoy together, "So shopping, a hunt, just hang out here?" Bella was mentally calculating which one would be least likely to turn into a conversation of Jasper. She was certain that she did not want to be a referee in that fight if it ever came to it.

[Rosalie Hale]

Rosalie looked at both her sister's, now that Bella had joined in and she was not sure what to make of them. They had never before tried to include her in their little world. She was not sure why they were now, but she was not going to be rude to them, after all they were her sisters. When Bella mentioned shopping and hunting, Rosalie smiled. "I actually just came back for shopping and hunting." Rosalie said as she went into her room and sat down on the bed.

Rosalie knew that they would follow her into the room and she did not mind at that point. Rosalie did love her sister's, she was just not that close with them. In truth the only time that she had been close with Bella was when she was pregnant. Rosalie was not sure how she was going to deal with her sister's but she would figure it out. "So I guess that we really have not seen each other in a while." She said trying to be friendly.

[Alice Cullen]

Alice mentally sighed as she felt more at ease with Bella there to diffuse any situation that might arise between herself and Rosalie. Truthfully, Alice knew that Rose would pick Jasper over her any day just because of the bond that existed there, but she at least wanted to make the effort to be more of a sister to Rose because they had not in previous instances. As Bella suggested going shopping or hunting, Alice was just about to agree when Rosalie shot down both of those ideas in one instance, stating that she had already done both. Taking a mental pause, Alice reigned in her urge to snap at Rosalie because she was trying to keep calm in all situations in light of recent events.

Following Rosalie into her room, Alice kept her cool and calm demeanor as she looked to her sister. "Yes, it has been a while since we were all in the same house, much less the same room," she said, agreeing to Rosalie's last statement. More of the reason was Alice's choice because of how she felt about Jasper, but she was trying to keep that aside from her relationships with other family members, especially Rosalie. "Well we can just stick around here and chat," Alice suggested. "I know it's been some time since all of us really talked about anything at all and it would be nice to spend a little time together."

[vladamir]

Vladamir had been in Seattle when his twins found him. He had not been expecting twins when he found out that Lexie was pregnant and they came up with the plan to distroy the Cullen family. Vladamir had always planned on returning to get Lexie after she had distroyed the Cullen's. He was going to make her his mate. When the twins found him and told him what happened, he vowed revenge for her. Vladamir took the twins and left Seattle to return to Forks and kill the one that took Lexie's life.

Vladamir left the twins in a hotel outside of town and went in search of the one named Rosalie. She was the one that the twins said took his Lexie. Vladamir found the Cullen house and could smell those that were inside. He stood under the window that he heard the voices coming from and knew that it was three females in the house. Vladamir stood there and listened to them talk, trying to figure out which one was Rosalie. He would follow her and learn her routine before he made his move to kill her.

[Renesmee Cullen-Black]

Renesmee sat in her living room, finishing up a book she had been reading for the last few days. It was one of her favorites, Romeo and Juliet, which she inherited a love for from her mother. There was something about starcrossed lovers that just drew her in like a moth to the flame. She knew that she and Jacob were an anomoly in their world...a shapeshifter and half-vampire married with a child. That was not something you saw everyday in the world of the supernatural. Romeo and Juliet had it easy in her mind with only feuding families. She and Jacob had feuding species that wanted to kill each other before he imprinted on her. And even after, things were not completely smoothed over for a long time. However, they had stuck it out together and were now happily married with a daughter. Alicia was the center of their world and captivated them from the moment she was born.

Renesmee thought back to her own childhood when she had captivated her parents and family in the same way. It had been a long time since she had really been to see any of them, not only because of the stress of new motherhood, but also because of Jasper's return. She knew that tensions were high because of it and she did not wish to face that situation just yet, but after Rosalie's visit where she was scolded in her own home, Renesmee knew that it would only get worse from there if she did not do something. On her softer side, she did miss her family very much and wanted Alicia to get to know them because she was growing so fast. She knew that her own daughter would not grow as fast as she did, but there was still only a certain amount of time for childhood.

A small voice brought her out of her thoughts and refocused across the living room to the small child standing in the corner. Alicia was awake from her nap and holding her blanket in one hand while the other held her up against the door frame. She smiled at her little one before getting up and crossing the room to scoop her up into her arms, deciding that she would go visit her mother and see if her aunts were around. Leaving Alicia in her pajamas, she walked out the front door of their house and made her way to the cottage to see if her mother was home. When she found it empty, she went up to the big mansion, but stopped when she caught wind of an unfamiliar smell. Clasping Alicia closer to her chest she immediately went inside and upstairs where she could smell her aunts and mother in Rosalie's room. She stood in the doorway quietly for a moment before speaking. "Hi mom, Aunt Alice, and Aunt Rose."
