Introducing Emily Alyn Lind as Rosalia

Rose

"Bailey? BAILEY!!!" My scream pierces the night as I wake up covered in sweat again. The image never leaves my mind. It haunts my days and my nights. That moment turned me dark and emptied my soul. I've hoped that returning home might heal me somehow, but I couldn't have been more wrong. This place is just an empty house, in a forgotten place. At least nobody hears my screams and cries every time I try to sleep.

I keep wondering what I did to deserve this. Everything would have been much simpler if I had been born a pixie. But yeah, I'm half human, so I wasn't blessed with a pixie soulmate. Yet, I always hoped that if my mom and dad managed to find each other and live their wonderful life, I would be able to do it too. And I really thought I did... but then... tears roll down my cheeks as I remember that dreadful moment again. I reach out for the nightstand and open the small drawer. I take out the V pills and count them. I only have 5 left. I'll have to travel to Newport to get a refill. I place a pill on my tongue and enjoy the irony taste as I let it silence my mind. I look at the time: it's 4 am. I close my eyes, and I finally fall asleep again.

When I wake up, my skin feels itchy, like every other day since I started taking V. I take a shower and put on a lot of SPF. It's the only thing I found that actually calms down the sensation. Then I go outside and dive straight into the pool. While I'm half human, as long as I insist on keeping my wings, I still heat up sometimes. Plus, it helps me focus.

After my muscles get tired enough from swimming, I finally remember I have to eat. I quickly make myself a sandwich, and then I hop into my car to drive to Newport.

After I do some small shopping, I finally head for Sin. When I get there, it's already 10 PM, and the club has just opened. I go inside and wait at the bar for Stafan to appear. We have the same routine: he always arrives at around midnight, tells me how gorgeous I look, hits on me, I politely decline, and then he gives me the V. I expect tonight to be the same. People start coming in faster than usual, and soon the place becomes very crowded. The dancefloor slowly fills with horny teenagers who can't keep their hands to themselves. For a moment, I smile to myself, but then I remember when I realized I was in love with Bailey in a club just like this, and my eyes fill up with tears. I remember how we danced until we couldn't feel our feet, how we laughed our hearts out. The pull I had towards her was instant, the chemistry insane. I pop another pill of V so that I don't have a mental breakdown in the middle of a club and order a shot of tequila. Should I be mixing V with alcohol? Of course not! But right now, I just want to forget, or at least be able to get through the night. After downing the shot, it hits me: I won't be able to drive home tonight!

"Fuck!" I mumble to myself and close my eyes as the pleasant fog starts to fill my mind. I order another shot and drink it. "Fuck it! Might as well have fun!" I say to myself and step on the dancefloor.

As soon as I start dancing, a boy approaches me, moving as if he's some hot shot. I chuckle and roll my eyes. What is he? 17? 18 max? I might be drunk and high, but not this much. I turn my back at him and continue dancing with my hands in the air, and my eyes closed. I let the music fill my empty soul for the night and finally smile. Two songs later, I return to the bar to wait for Stafan. I drink a rum and coke and notice him walking in with somebody. I can't really see his face because of how dark the club is, but I find myself very curious about this other guy.

"Rosalie!" He says my full name, and I roll my eyes. He's lucky we've known each other since college... and that he's the only one I know that can get me V.

"Staf!" I tell him and give him a hug. He lets me go and takes my bag. Then he opens it and places 3 small packages of V inside, closing it afterwards.

"You look as hot as ever! Might I say, even hotter in this cute little dress. Have you lost weight?" He continues what he thinks is flirting. I roll my eyes and move my attention to the guy he came in with. Another chick is all over him, and I still can't see his face. I can only see his curly hair and tattoos.

"Do we really have to go through this every time?" I ask him sarcastically.

"Can you blame me for trying, Rose?" He asks, and I smile bitterly at him.

"Stafan, it was just a Truth or Dare kiss. Let it go!" I tell him, feeling myself getting dizzy. Then I burst into laughter, making him frown.

"I expect the transfer tomorrow. Same amount!" He says very seriously, and I smirk at him.

"Sir, yes, sir!" I say and start dancing. He shakes his head in disbelief and studies me from head to toes.

"How high are you right now?" He asks and I smirk again.

"Not high enough to fuck you, Stafan! Not even remotely close!"
