The Summer Everything Changed

Summers End

(Rosalie's pov)
It's been two weeks since Conrad ended things with me. I was more than relieved to know that belly was coming to visit for the summer. That was until now. Now all I could feel was anger.
I couldn't stand to watch them any longer.

I ran and locked myself in my room and sat against the door.  Belly. My baby sister. How could she. How could HE. Have I been blind this whole time? I just wanted to scream. To break everything in sight. As I came back to reality I could hear a pounding on my door. I gathered myself the best I could incase it was my mother or Susanna. I opened the door with the best smile I could fake and it immediately dropped and I was filled with rage all over again. It was belly. "Rosie, it's not what you think. We just-" I couldn't let her finish, my hand met her face and My eyes filled with tears. She immediately stepped back and held her cheek in her hand. " How long have you two... how long Isabelle."
"We've only kissed two times, I promise you that's it, nothing has been going on. I would never do that to you. You're my sister Rosalie, I wouldn't hurt you like that." I scoffed and bit my lip. "You lie! You really think dating him after we just broke up isn't hurting me? Are you fucking stupid? I'm your sister Isabelle! What kind of sister are you? I would NEVER do this to you. You know I love him." She tried to speak again but I couldn't take it anymore, the anger was just continuing to build up. I went to lunge at her but I was stopped by Jeremiah who jumped in between us and pulled me back. "Belly I think it's best you go elsewhere for now." Isabelle wiped tears from her eyes and looked at me one last time before nodding towards Jeremiah and taking off down the stairs.

Jeremiah stayed with me. He was always good at being the peace keeper. Always good at calming me and making me feel better. He's my light. I laid on my bed and curled into a ball. He followed, didn't say anything he just held me as I cried into his chest. "I'm sorry, if I woke you. I didn't mean to." He shook his head and looked at me with a slight smile. "You don't need to be sorry rosa, in fact I'm sorry about my brother. You don't deserve any of this."

I must've fallen asleep. It was dark outside now. Another day wasted. This summer couldn't be over quick enough. I sat up and quietly headed downstairs but quickly stopped when I heard belly and Conrad talking. He hasn't even checked on me nor even tried to talk to me to explain. Nothing. The last years of my life wasted on a man I thought was my future. How can he act like it all meant nothing.
I sighed and immediately went into Stevens  room and shut the door. "Can you kill me?" He laughed and opened his arms. Jeremiah smiled as I embraced Steven. "If you can't, can I at least hide in here for a little?" Steven nodded "of course you can, that's what we're doing!" He laughed and went back to playing on his PlayStation with Jere. I must've been watching them for an hour when I finally decided to go outside and get some air.

When I arrived on the beach I admired the water and closed my eyes. Flashbacks of Conrad and I played in my head as I listened to the waves. I heard someone approaching me and looked behind me and saw him. Conrad. Only took him all day.

"Can we talk?" I wanted to tell him no. To tell him I hate him, that he's dead to me, but I couldn't let him win, let him get the best of me. He already has too much power over me. I simply nodded and looked away from him.
"Rosalie I'm sorry." He sat beside me and tried to grab my hand but I snatched it away. "You're sorry?" I scoffed. "Is that all you have to say Conrad? That you're sorry? Sorry you fucked me over and decided to get with my sister? Sorry you're just coming to talk to me now? Sorry you broke my heart?" He sighed and shook his head. "I love her Rosalie, I couldn't keep going on knowing that I had feelings for her it wasn't fair to you." I didn't think I could feel as hurt as I did before but hearing him say that he loves her god i've never felt more low. Never felt more angry. How could he love her when it's only been two weeks since we ended. He had feelings for her the whole time? None of it was real?
