**Still Rosalie's POV**

The last week of term had finally arrived and everyone was ecstatic about the upcoming two-week break. No school, no work. Perfect.

I was sitting with my friends at one of the tables in the cafeteria eating. There was my best friend, Jessica Peters, her boyfriend Johnathan Stewart, and my other best friend, Zachary Smith. We'd all been friends for a really long time now, and when Ben had broken up with me, they were all on my side. Even Johnathan, who just happens to be his cousin!

"So what were you doing after school today?" Zac asked me.

"Studying. We've got a Math test on Wednesday." I told him.

"Oh, I forgot about that. Can I come over and study with you?"

"Sure. Maybe when we're finished, we could get some popcorn and watch a movie."

"Sounds great."

I checked my feed on Facebook to find the worst possible news possible.

Guess who's coming back!!! I'm expecting one hell of a party guys!

You've got to be kidding me. Ben was moving back. That douche bag! If anything, I'd probably be one of the first people he'd talk to when he got back into school. There was no way in hell that I was going to talk to him.

"Is something wrong?" Zac asked me.

I slid my phone over to him.

"It's alright, Rose. If you want, I can be your personal bodyguard and kick his ass for you." He told me.

"As tempting as that sounds, I'll pass. I can handle him by myself." I replied.

"Are you sure? I think my idea is a bit better than yours. It'd be fun for everyone to watch me kick his ass."

"Only to risk you getting hurt yourself? No way. He's my problem, not yours."

"Alright then. When was he coming anyway?"

I kept reading the details on my phone. "Friday afternoon."

"You could call in sick that day, you know." He told me.

"Doesn't that just prove how much of a wimp I am?"

"How's he gonna know if you're sick or not?"

"True. But I'm not gonna waste the day just avoiding him."

"But you would've tried to avoid him here anyway."

"Do you just want me fake being sick so you can take the day off too?" I asked him.

He smirked. "Well when you put it like that-"

"You were! You'd do anything to get out of school, wouldn't you?"

"I can say that I'm taking care of you."

"Don't you do that enough already?"

"Are you saying that you don't want my company?"

"Fine! You can come too." I said, finally giving into him.

**Ben's POV**

A few days later.......

I couldn't wait to move back. I think I might've overstayed my welcome at my uncle and aunt's place. I usually threw a party whenever they went out, and when they'd arrive back, I'd be in the middle of trying to clean up. They couldn't take it anymore, and now, they're flying me back over to my parents. I guess you could say that I wasn't the best nephew in the world.

To be honest, I don't really know the reason why I left my parents in the first place. I think I just needed a break or something. I did however go to school when I was with my uncle and aunt. It wasn't like the school I used to go to, though, which was a shame. The people there were too nice for their own good, whereas at the school I used to go to, a fight or two would break out in the parking lot every now and then.

Then there was Rosalie. She was gorgeous. I don't know how I lasted so long without her. I missed her shoulder-length brown hair and bright blue eyes. How could I have been so stupid as to let her go? What if she'd found someone else? Could I still have a chance with her? I guess I'll just have to figure it out for myself on Friday.

I wasn't actually going to go to school tomorrow. Screw that place. I was actually going to wait until school was over, then go to her apartment. Her parents had major jobs with some high-class company and were making millions, therefore, they flew all over the world, leaving Rose by herself in a luxury apartment with a maid or two.

Or at least, that's what I remember. God knows what's changed since I left. I'm hoping she's single now, though. I've seen the way Zac looks at her, that douche. Fortunately, I've picked up on this and can now intervene before he makes his move. He won't stand a chance against me. I'll crush him like the little worm he is.
