~Bennett's point of view~

I woke up, the sun beating down on me and something weighing down my left arm. I searched for the source of the problem, soon finding my answer when I saw a sleeping Rosemarie snuggling into my arm and chest. Her eye lids pressed together and her usually shallow breathing now steady. I stroked her beautiful, long locks of brunette hair.

Her eyes flew open, meeting mine. "Morning." she said. She moved, looking awkward and most likely feeling it too. "Morning. Um, we don't have to get up yet" she was scattering out of bed. Grabbing a skirt on under her nightgown and shedding it to put on a blouse, I couldn't help but stare at her chest whilst it was bare of clothing, covered by only her bra it looked sexy.

Snap out of it! I chided myself. I looked away, embrassed at my staring. Rosemarie however had seen me staring and turned to look at me, her blouse not yet buttoned. "Like something you see?" I gulped. "Um, yeah... I um, I like it... I like it alot." she blushed. "Thanks" she muttered, turning to button it. She ran to the dressing table and applied her make-up: eye liner, mascara, eye shadow, lip gloss and powder. She didn't need the make-up she was already pretty and probably already knew that but she was none-the-less still an insecure teenage girl at heart.

I got up, still wearing my jeans from yesterday, I was shirtless however, Rosemarie caught sight of my reflection in the mirror and turned to get a better look. "You know does being married to you make me your bitch?" she asked randomly. I chuckled. "Only if you want it to" she laughed "No thanks."

Running a brush through her perfect, chocolate brown hair she smoothed it down her back and put it in a braid. "Any errands you need me to run? I'm visiting my coven" she stated, pulling a pair of ruby earrings into her ear lobes and turning to me an eye brow raised. "Um... no thanks." she laughed once more before grabbing her coat and leaving, calling good bye as she shut the door behind her.

Snapping back to my senses I finally got round to buttoning my red plaid shirt and grabbing my sneakers on. I went out the door and into the lounge where Aston sat with an apple in his hand and a colouring book in front of him, his crayons sprayed among the living room floor. Skylar my younger cousin sat beside him, she is three. "Hey guys, did you see mommy leave?" I asked. Skylar nodded and took a bite out of her own apple. "Where is she going?" asked Aston. "She's going to see her... um, family members." Aston nodded and continued innocently eating his apple.

~Rosemarie's point of view~

How could this be? Did I really just wake up in Bennett's arms? Did I really just see him shirtless? And did I really just flirt with him when he saw me shirtless? Oh my god! This could not be happening, was I really falling for a werewolf? Was that even possible?

As I drove my mercedes benz to the coven house I worried for my sanity. I was falling for a werewolf, this was not good. I smoothed the hair on the back of my head and pulled my car into the gravel driveway. I tugged my keys out of the ignition and walked to the front door, my velvet heels making clinky noises on the pavement. Opening the door with my key I walked in, a smile on my face. "Hey guys, I'm home!"

The coven came running in. Of course though their ages were over twelve, we didn't make children into vampires. Dimitri was the first one to come running, dressed in a tailored suit, his hair tied back he looked ravishing in all his six foot seven glory. "Hi..." I said, looking at him in a flustered manner. "Hi" he replied almost breathlessly. "Nice to see you home" he finished, I cleared my throat "Well I'm only here for the afternoon" he laughed "A few hours is fine, as long as we see you at all" I smiled. "Hug?" I asked. "Sure." he retorted, crossing the space between us and circling me in his arms, wrapping me in his embrace and crushing me against his hard chest. The beat of his heart was apparent and the smell of his cologne was strong.

"I'm glad to be home" he chuckled, the noise rippled through him like an avalanche racing down a hill. "I'm glad too. We all are" I smiled up at him. After a while we went into the living room, I sat down with some of the coven and talked. They had lots to tell me and I the same. We talked for ages, sharing stories, speaking of packs and covens but there seemed to be something wrong. My eyes searched for the cause of my discomfort. I looked down: Dimitri's arm was around my waist, just as Bennett's had been the previous day, except when Bennett had done it, I'd had no problem... So why did I now? Of all the people I could fall for, of all the supernatural creatures, was I really falling for Bennett? Or was I just ill? Ill was my option I'd rather be ill than in love with Bennett.

When my time came to leave Dimitri asked if he could ride back with me, he said he'd walk back home afterwards but didn't feel comfortable with me going on a five hour drive, alone. I agreed although some what reluctant to be trapped in such a small space with Dimitri.

I twisted the ends of my braid, feeling the need to do something at least... We stopped to get coffee at a petrol station, I went in the store whilst Dimitri re-fueled my car. "That'll be three dollars" I rolled my eyes at how stupid humans were with pricing goods and paid the asked amount. Coming out of the shop I saw Dimitri had finished filling the tank, he was laid on my bumper and staring at the tawny sunset. It was beautiful in all consideration but for heavens sake's, he was on my car!!! I marched over and threw his scolding cup of coffee over him. He looked up at me, obviously not feeling the pain. "What a waste of a good suit" he said blantly disregarding my annoyance. "Well you suit jeans better" I retorted, pushing him off the bumper and sipping my coffee. He scoffed. "You look better naked than in those clothes but I'm not complaining" I looked at my attire, rolled my eyes and got in the car, I shed one tear before wiping it away and putting my keys into the ignition. Don't let him get to you Rose, I told myself. He slid into the car and sat in the passenger seat. We had another four and a half hours of driving ahead of us and I was not in the mood to talk to him any longer.

"Rose-" I cut him off before he could hurt me anymore "Shut up!" I chided him. "Rose" he attempted again "No, Dimitri I'm not going to listen to you try and attempt to apologise to something you would've never said to me before that god damn wedding!" I averted my eyes from his godly looks and back to the road ahead. "Rose I'm-" I cringed "Look if you really want to apologise then get out of this car and never talk to me again" he sighed, brushing some strands of hair that had escaped my tight braid away from my eyes. "Pull over" he demanded. "Why?" he growled at me "Pull over!" I whimpered, did a swift turn and had us on the side of the road in an instant. "Why?" I repeated. I sledom got scared, but Dimitri was my maker and when he was mad I knew better than to annoy him. "Because then I wouldn't be able to do this" he pulled his seat beat off and crashed his lips down onto mine with one swift motion. Grabbing my closer to him he un-buckled my seat belt. I kissed back although I was still scared of him. I pulled back and this time had no regrets of doing so. "Get out!" I hissed. "What?" he asked. "I said, get out!" he climbed out of the car. "Your making a mistake Rose" I snorted "No. You are. For thinking I could ever love you!" I slammed his door shut, buckled my seat belt and drove off into the sun set.

When I got through that pack house door not one person dared to even whisper a word of comfort to me, the look on my face must've been deadly because not one person in that house dared to approach me. I stormed upstairs in a fit of rage and locked myself in Bennett's room. I threw off my clothes and got into my nightgown. I hurtled myself onto the bed and began sobbing heavily. Tears poured down my face no doubt ruining my carefully applied make-up and staining Bennett's sugar white bedding.

The faintest of knocks asked my immediate attention. I got up and opened the old oak door. Bennett stood there, bags under eyes, coffee sticking to his breath, hair ruffled and clothes slept in. "Jeremy woke me up when he realised you were home, I was waiting for you, now I remember how far your coven live away from us-" his eyes finally realised what they hadn't immediately in the dark scenery of the hallway. He stroked my hair out of my eyes, just as Dimitri had earlier, I flinched. "W-what happened?" he stuttered. "I argued with my maker" he chuckled "You mean that douche bag Dimitri?" I laughed. "Yes. I do mean that: 'douche bag Dimitri'" all emotions on his face hardened, hidden in a composed mask of nothing-ness. "What did he do?" I gulped down a lump in my throat. "He tried to kiss me, I refused and he became... bitter" he growled "I'll kill him, treating you like that isn't right" he turned to leave but I caught a hold of his shoulder "Please. Bennett. Don't." he turned to me, his honey eyes looking into mine, as though he could see the remenants of my soul.

"Give me one reason why I shouldn't drive over there right now and kill that monster" I sighed "That 'monster' is my maker and I'm one of those monsters" he gave me a pained look "I didn't mean it that way Rose, I'm sorry" I gave him a smile. "Stay, please, I don't want fights happening between you two" he snorted "why not?" he frowned. I sighed again "Because I..." he laughed "Exactly, you don't have an excuse so I should be allowed to do it" he carried on walking. "Bennett, please. Don't do this!" I ran after him. He turned back to me. "Why?" I was on the verge of killing him, was he as blind as he was vengeful? "Because I... I...-" Jeremy's screams cut me off "ROGUES!!!"
