Not Only in My Dreams

Chapter 7

Y/N POV

They released me from the hospital that same night. Just a couple cracked ribs and some bruising. Dr. Cullen prescribed me medicine for the pain and told me to come back in a few weeks for a check up.

I couldn't sleep well that night. I don't know if it was because of the pain or the fact that Rosalie plagued my mind.

The next morning Dad said I could skip and go to school on Friday. So I basically laid on the couch all day binge watching Stranger Things and pigging out on all of the snacks.

Normally I would love wasting a day laying on the couch watching TV but it was an abnormally sunny day for Forks and I couldn't take advantage of it.

I've been talking to Amanda off and on but we decided to talk about once a month to stay updated and to not feel stressed about texting each other all of the time. So I decided to text Emmett.

Apparently he wasn't at school either today. Something about a family day? I don't know. But he was free to keep me company! I quickly invited him over and he asked if he could bring his siblings since they were bored. I didn't see the problem with it so I allowed it.

About 20 minutes later Emmett, Jessica, Alice, Jasper and... wtf. Rosalie? They're all crowded underneath my shaded porch. I quickly invited them in.

Emmett found the Xbox pretty quickly and had already started trash talking me.

Okay now I had to kick his ass.

Everyone gathered in the living room and started chatting while Emmett set up the game.

Emmett was cross legged next to me on the floor in front of the couch. Jess was sitting right behind Emmett rubbing his shoulders giving him a pep talk.

Good he's gonna need it.

Snickering, I look to see Jasper sitting on the chair next to the couch with Alice perched on the arm of the chair, both intently watching Emmett set up his character.

Where is Rosalie? I look around to find her sitting on the couch dangerously close to me. Her legs are almost touching my shoulder. She sees me looking at her and she leans down and whispers "kick his ass" in my ear. Gulp.

Okay I'm not going to be able to concentrate with miss gorgeous bipolar goddess sitting so close to me. I wish she would make up her mind about hating me or being nice!

It would be a hell of a lot easier on me. I hear the game start and I kick into action.

About 45 minutes later we are all laughing except for Emmett. He is just pouting and mumbling that he would buy me another controller.  He got so frustrated because I killed him so many times that he literally broke my controller in half!

"Awe poor Emmy can't stand to be beat" I mocked "and by a girl" I smirked.

"Oh, I want a rematch. You cheated."

"How exactly did I cheat?" I wondered.

"You.. you.. agh! I don't know but you did!"

"Oh quit your whining. She's obviously better than you" Rosalie sassed.

"Yeah what she said" I said pleasantly surprised.

"Hey Y/N, do you want to come to our house this weekend to hang? We can have that rematch." Rosalie asked.

As surprised and happy that I was that Rosalie was the one who invited me over I had to decline. "I can't. Not this weekend. I'm supposed to meet my grandma up at port Angeles for dinner" I said with an apologetic smile hoping she'd understand.

"Okay maybe some other time" she says with a small smile.

"Oh hell yeah 'some other time'! I need my rematch!" Emmett bellows.

Pretty soon they were all heading out the door. It was dark out already and we all had to go to school tomorrow. Ugh. I hate waking up so early.

"I'll see you tomorrow at school?" Rosalie questions hopefully.

"Uh-uh, yeah yes of course" why the fuck do I have to be a blubbering mess.

I can feel my blush heating up my face. I guess school won't be so bad as long as I get to see her. She smiles and walks out followed by Emmett who gives me a wink. Shit. Does he know that I like Rosalie?
