Bella sat on her couch staring at Mr. Brooks' daughter, Rosina. She had seen her around school, but she hadn't really made an effort to make herself acquainted with Rosina. She had other things on her mind.
But Bella was happy to sit through an afternoon with the new girl if it meant Charlie had a new fishing partner. Ever since Harry Clearwater's death, the fishing trips hadn't been as frequent. She hoped this was the beginning of new distractions for Charlie.
Soon after Mr. Brooks and Charlie had left she attempted to start a conversation with Rosina. "How do you like Forks?"
OOC: Sorry. I had no inspiration for the title.

Rosina just shrugged,
"seems an alright place," she replied as she looked around the living room. It was a little smaller then the living room at her house and very plain. She soon got bored with looking and turned back to Bella.
"Any idea what we could do?" she asked.

Bella shook her head, she didn't have a clue. She let her stare rest on the opposite wall when she said, "Not really."

Rosina groaned inwardly,
"well you got any CD's or anything on something to cook with in the kitchen or something?" she asked dryly.

Bella could tell from Rosina's tone, she wasn't enjoying her company anymore then she was. "I've got some CDs." Bella stood and got a CD case from the lightstand. It held most of her favourites, such as the Linkin Park CD and a Debussy CD.
She handed the case to Rosina to flip through and and sat back down on the couch.

Rosina pulled the Linkin Park CD out straight away.
"where's your CD player?" she asked as she looked around. There was a hint of amusement in her tone, Bella didn't look like the type of person who would listen to rock music...then again Rosina knew neither did she.

Bella pointed to the TV sitting on top of a swivel TV stand. "Inside the cupboard of the TV stand." She didn't bother to get the CD player for Rosina. She crossed her legs and an amused smirk came across her face when she realized that Rosina had pulled out the Linkin Park CD. She didn't look like someone who would listen to rock.

((XD))
Rosina pulled the CD player out and plugged it into a spare socket. She opened the CD player and put the CD on. The music started to play as Rosina went and sat back down singing along with the words quietly. She stopped singing and tapped the arm of the chair instead,
"so...what would you be doing today if you weren't stuck with me?" she asked trying to start a conversation.

Bella looked up at Rosina and then had to ponder what she would do if she wasn't here with her. Edward and the rest of the Cullens were away, 'camping'. "I'd probably be doing housework. Or school work." Now that Bella had to think about it, she was almost glad she had someone else to spend the Saturday with, even if it was forced upon her. "How about you?"

Rosina shrugged,
"not sure, I'd probably go down to First Beach or go for a walk in the woods or something," she replied thoughtfully. She brought one of her hands up to her face and started to twirl a strand of hair around one of her finger's.

"First beach?" Bella was surprised yet again by this girl. She already was familliar with the area. "Thats a nice area. I spent a lot of time up there last spring before the Cullens came back to town. You should go cliff diving sometime. Alot of the kids on the rez do it. Very exhilarating."

Rosina just smiled nervously at the mention of cliff diving, the idea of it scared her plus she couldn't swim.
"Yes well First Beach is lovely...so where do you usually hang around?" she replied.

Post by Bella Swan on Jan 26, 2007 16:50:33 GMT -5
Bella could see that Rosina wasn't planning on going cliff-diving any time soon, and she repressed a smirk.
"I usually just stay at home and Edward comes over. Occasionally, I'm out with Jessica, Mike, Angela... well everyone else. Thats how I grew to appriciate First Beach in the first place. Mike loves to plan outings out there." Bella didn't really want to make it sound like she never got out, even though she spent 98% of her time at home with Edward when she wasn't at work or school. She hoped it didn't come across that way.

Rosina nodded,
"well at least your nearly always at home with someone, I'm usually alone," she replied. She went quiet then and just listened to the music.

Bella felt awkward with the turn that the conversation had taken. She hadn't meant to remind her of the fact that she was new, or lonely.
"Have you met many people in Forks?" Bella thought she might be able to introduce Rosina and Angela. They seemed like they might hit it off.

Rosina nodded,
"yeah a girl at school called Gabrielle and a boy down at the reservation," she answered. She kept quite quiet still though as she wasn't in a very talkative mood anymore.

"A boy at the reservation?"
Bella was curious. And it could possibly lead to more conversation. Bella wasn't in the mood for uncomfortable silences.

Rosina rolled her eyes,
"yes, I did just say that," she replied in a slightly sarcastic tone. She moved some hair behind her ears again.

Bella sighed. Obviously she wasn't in the mood to talk. "What's the boy's name?"

"Jacob," Rosina replied simply.
((Eeeek total writers block...sorry for my little post))

Bella gasped. "Jake?" She wanted to ask so many questions. She hadn't talked to him since the confrontation at the Blacks, they didn't answer their phone anymore.
Bella decided to only ask one question, no need to get Rosina curious about things. "Do you see him often?"
((Its alright.))

Rosina shook her head,
"no, I've only seen him once or twice," she replied. She wished she'd seen him more but oh well.

"Oh." Bella didn't bother to hide the disappointment in her voice. She wanted know if things had cooled down with the pack. She wanted to know if Jake had found his happy ending. But evidently she wasn't getting any answers today.
'Nobody's Listening' filled the silence in the room, and Bella didn't know what to do next. She glanced around the room and tried to find something to talk about. Her eyes rested on Rosina's rose quartz necklace. "Thats a beautiful necklace," She commented.

Rosina looked down at it and shrugged,
"yeah it is isn't it, just a piece of rose quartz though...I saw a shop in Port Angeles, it was mainly a bookshop but they sell stuff like this as well," she said as she remembered a small bookshop she'd been in.

"I guess I'll just have to visit the store the next time I'm in Port Angeles." Bella didn't know what to add to her comment, so she let the awkward silence lengthen. Maybe Rosina would try to start a conversation.
((Sorry... kinda brain dead))

Rosina started to tap again,
"I'm bored and I feel like some cake...do you have any or any ingredients to make one?" she asked bluntly.

Post by Bella Swan on Feb 10, 2007 20:29:01 GMT -5
Bella was slightly confused, but nodded. "I have a chocolate cake mix in the pantry. Did you want to use that?" She stood, ready to retreive the mix.

Rosina nodded and stood up,
"yeah...chocolate cake will be great," she replied and her stomach rumbled.
"Heh and at least you'll have some dessert for tonight if there's any left," she added.

Bella motioned for Rosina to follow her into the kitchen in silence. She pulled the Betty Crocker box out of the pantry and looked at the ingridients before handing the box to Rosina. "I'll have to hunt for a pan real quick, but I can get you the ingridients before I start the search, if you want to go ahead and start."

Rosina nodded and started to prepare what ingredients she could, getting the eggs out of the fridge etc.
"So do you read often?" she asked trying to start a conversation.
