Dancing with our hands tied | Rosalie Hale

Chapter 18: Seattle

Bella has been really weird this past days, she barely talks to me, even in school. She has been having lunch with Edward so not even there I have had a chance to be near her, I was glad that they have been getting along but I really missed hanging out with her.

For a long time, I had no friends, I kind of still don't have a lot of friends, but I always had Bella. Now the only reason as to why I hadn't lost my mind was because Rosalie was everything I could ask for and more.

She and I have been spending a lot of time together, she would drive me to and from school every day. At some point she had giving me her phone number and we texted a lot. We discussed about the things we liked, or hobbies. That's how I found out that she had several degrees, she had an MD, and she also went to MIT for mechanical engineer. I had pointed out the fact that Tony Stark also graduated there, she didn't get it. I must admit I was rather disappointed.

"Bella" I knocked on the door before entering "I am almost leaving for Seattle, do you want me to bring you anything?"

There was no one in the room, I was about to return to my own when I saw a book I didn't recognize in her desk, that was weird considering I knew all her books having reading all of them. I picked it up and gasped when I saw the title. 'Quileute Legends: The Story of a Tribe'

Why did Bella have this book? Did she suspect about the Cullens?

"What are you doing?" Bella's voice asked behind me and made me jump, I dropped the book to the floor.

I quickly turned around holding a hand to my chest, breathing heavily.

"You scared the crap out of me" I panned trying to ease my breathing.

"Are you snooping around?" she asked her face red in anger, she picked up the book from the floor and hid it behind her back.

"Where you get that book from?" I arched an eyebrow at her, she was acting really suspicious.

"Is not of your business" she groaned and pulled me from my arm trying to push me to the door.

"Bella, come on" I sighed "What is going on?"

"Soff, I need privacy and you spying of me is just too much" she blabbered and was still trying to push me out of the room, I held to the frame of the door to avoid her kicking me out.

"I am not spying on you" I let go to try and show her I was leaving "I am leaving to Seattle and I wanted to know if you needed something"

"No, get out" she slammed the door in my face. I frowned and stared at the door for a few seconds.

Bella was the worst liar; judging by the way she reacted and tried to hid the book from me led me to think something. She knew exactly what that book held. The truth about the Cullens.

Rosalie was not going to like this one bit.

My phone vibrated at that exact moment. It was her, she was downstairs.

"You've been too quiet" she mused, we had been driving for almost 30 minutes. We had greeted each other and put on some music but I was still thinking about my sister "Penny for your thoughts?"

"It's nothing" I smiled at her softly, I liked that she looks relaxed.

"Did you tell your sister where you going?" she asked me a little more serious, I frowned. I really didn't want to talk about my sister.

"I did" I nodded, then I beamed "I even told her you were driving me"

"Really?" she looked really pleased that I had not lied about who I was hanging out with. I felt glad that she was happy about it but a little guilt crawled deep inside me, she was expecting me to lie.
