How it started

trusting again

"Thank you Rosie" I mumble making her look down at me "what for bunny?" she ask, "being here, thank you for protecting me" I say making her smile and kiss my head "always" she says making me smile. A knock at the door makes my shoulders tense "Occupied" Rosie calls firmly as she runs her fingers through my hair massaging the shampoo in.

"Rosalie, Soffia may I come in?" a voice I know all too well calls making me tense. My lip wobbles as I grip onto the duck I was pushing around like it's the only thing giving me support. "Do you want me to send her away bunny? I will" Rosie says her voice sharp making me flinch slightly.

I stare at the bubbles ahead of me "I miss her.." I whisper, Rosie sighs softly and kisses my head before standing up and wiping her hands off. The door creaks open and Alice and Rosalie stare at each other for a moment "If you upset her Alice" she warns as Alice nods and they both step towards me but I keep my eyes on the bubbles.

"Baby" Alice whispers making tears fill my eyes and I look up to meet hers, Her eyes are slightly red and there's unshed tears in her eyes as her hands stay clasp together. She steps forward hesitantly "I miss you" she says causing the tears to fall down. "I-i miss you" I cry as she takes another step forward.

"I miss you b-but I can't help but feel upset" I mumble, "I know baby, we should've handled this differently we shouldn't of left" she says making me bite back a sob. "I f-felt like I wasn't enough for you, for you or Jasper to stay" I cry, Alice's tears leave her own eyes as she bends down next to the tub.

"I'm so sorry, sweet girl. I thought... we thought we were protecting you but we just hurt you more. I promise i'll spend forever proving to you that I'll never leave again" she says making the sob escape me and I lift my hand, I reach my hand towards her letting my fingers brush against hers. Alice's eyes widen slightly as she quickly clasps her hand around mine.

"I love you Soffia Mae. Please don't doubt that" she says her own voice cracking. "I love you Al, p-please no leave again" I say, she nods before pulling me into her chest and hugging me tightly, I cry as I grip her shirt "I'm not baby, i'm never going anywhere again" she says. "Can I help finish your bath? we can all sit down together after and really talk?" Alice ask.

I bite my lip and look towards Rosalie and she sends me an encouraging smile that doesn't fully reach her eyes "Rosie and you do?" I ask, Alice smiles and nod as Rosie comes back over and kneels next to the tub. "I'm proud of you little bunny" Rosie says placing a kiss to my temple making me smile before she brings a wet cloth to my face wiping the tears away as Alice runs her fingers through my hair.

They quickly work together to get me bathed before Rosalie pulls me out onto my feet and wraps me in a bunny towel she had bought me for Christmas, "theres my little bunny" she says smiling which makes me giggle, Alice's shoulders sag as her eyes look broken watching Rosalie and I together.

"Bunny why don't you go with Alice and let her get you dressed that way you guys can talk yeah?" Rosie says making me bite my lip and look at Alice again, her eyes widen as she look at me with hope "okay Rosie" I say softly as she smiles and plants a kiss on my head "good job bunny, if you need me just call for me okay?" she says making me nod as she goes to leave the room.

"Thank you Rosalie" Alice says pulling her sister into a hug "don't thank me, you didn't even tell me you were leaving" she hisses, causing Alice to flinch "I know why you did and i'm glad we could protect Renesmee but what about your girl Alice?" Rosalie says. "I'm sorry, but thank you for taking care of her" Alice says softly.

"I'll always take care for her, she's my bunny. Do something like this again Alice though and you'll answer to me. You broke that girls heart" Rosalie says making me bite my lip before crashing into her and hugging her tightly "you're brave bunny now go continue being brave and talk to your mates yeah?" she says softly as she pats the top of my covered head.
