Author's Note. I've always wanted to do a story with Rosalie and who better than to do it with my favorite leading male, our Major Jasper Whitlock? I hope you guys like this story.

Don't worry; I am still working on my other stories. I just haven't posted all of the updates yet, because I am concentrating more on the 'Dhampir' series. I just can't help that when I have an idea, I have to write it down before I lose my muse. Hence, why I have so many open stories that I am still working on. Enjoy! - B

Prologue
(Rosalie's POV)

I stood in front of the mirror in Emmett and my bedroom, running a brush absent mindedly as I brushed my hair. This was something I did frequently, but not for the reason that many may think, but when it came to Edward, I used that to my advantage. I could not risk him finding out what the real reason was for looking as vane as I seem.

I continued looking in to the mirror, thinking. Why was it that the one man that I loved with all my heart and thrived to be with didn't see what everyone else on this planet saw? What did they see? I still couldn't understand it. It was only a face and hair placed on top of a body in my eyes, not that anyone besides Emmett and Jasper knew that.

Jasper…

I knew I loved him, but I can't do anything about it. I haven't been able to do anything about it since I first met him sixty years ago when he first came here. But he was mated with Alice and I won't do anything to hurt my sister.

The only one in the family that knows everything is Emmett. We were just starting to date when Alice and Jasper first appeared on our door step. It took that long for Emmett and I to get together because I was still traumatized from what happened with Royce when I was changed.

The second Jasper's eyes and mine met…I just knew, but I couldn't do anything about it. I felt drawn to him and my entire body screamed to be in his presence. Every time he touches me, I feel this electrical sensation. It kills me every time I have to watch them together. But I am so lucky to have Emmett. He has been my savior.

After I met Jasper, I started pulling away from Emmett. He could feel it and noticed it happening and wanted to speak with me about it. So we left the house on an overnight hunting trip, just the two of us. It killed me to be away from Jasper, but I couldn't risk Edward or Alice seeing our conversation. I told him that I was in love with Jasper, but I liked Alice and didn't want to hurt her or Jasper. So he agreed to tell everyone that we were mates and keep everything that I told him between the two of us. We didn't want to cause any trouble with the family. Not to mention, I wasn't looking for any attention from the male population outside of the family, so it really helped that it appeared like we were together.

From then on, we shared a room and acted like any couple would. He was the best friend that I could ask for. He healed me from my terrible past, emotionally and sexually. I knew that we didn't have to sleep together in order to appear like a couple, but I loved Emmett and I couldn't let fear hold me from being able to have sexual relationship, nor was it fair to him to remain celibate because he is helping a friend. Even if he may be in love with that friend.

About five months after we made our agreement, he told me that he fell in love with me. He knew that I couldn't return those feelings because of Jasper, but knew that I did love him as my very best friend. It was then that I agreed to marry him for the first time. Who better to marry than my best friend? Even if it wasn't 100% legal in the human world.

He also became a big help when it came to my gift. Yes, I do have a gift, though no one aside from Emmett and Eleazar know about it. We discovered it the first time that I met Eleazar and the Denali family. As soon as I was alone, Eleazar spoke with me about it. It was something that he had never seen before and didn't think that it was a good idea if it got out. It wasn't very strong at that point in time, so it wasn't very hard to conceal.

According to Eleazar, I am what is known as Burattinaio or a Manipolatore. It means 'puppeteer' or 'manipulator' in Italian. Throughout his time with the Volturi, he had been searching for one with my gift. Aro was very adamant about finding one ever since he heard about the legends of Carlotta. She was the first Burattinaio, but had committed suicide after he mate was killed by the Romanians before the Volturi over powered them and took over the vampire world. That was about two thousand years ago and there has never been another one since.

As a Burattinaio, my gift is almost like mind control. I can make people, objects, vampires, animals, or other mythical creatures do anything I want, even if it is against their will. All I have to do is think about it and they will do it. I can also make a boulder levitate, I can make someone forget something or remember something that never happened. I can do just about anything except making things appear out of thin air. I can't create things or turn them invisible or teleport them. My senses have to see, hear, smell, or touch them in order for me to manipulate them.

We figured that if Carlisle's theory was correct about how a vampire's gift comes from a strong quality that the vampire had in their human life that I have this gift because when I was human, I could get people to do anything that I wanted because of my apparent 'beauty'. Beauty is power in the human and vampire world and when I was changed, I was gifted with this power.

After hearing about everything from Eleazar, we decided that it was best that nobody find out about this gift. Not even the family, because of how close Aro and Carlisle were.

Before I met Eleazar, I couldn't understand why so many weird things happened when I was around. It was easy to get my way, even if I didn't mean to. Once I found out why that was, I left with Eleazar under the guise of hunting every chance we got during that month that the Denali's stayed with us. He taught me how to use my gift. One of the first things that he taught me how to do in order to block Edward out was to make it so he couldn't hear anything in my mind or Eleazar's mind that pertained to my gift. That way we are free to think about it without worrying about me being discovered. I made sure to do learn how to do a permanent block so that when Eleazar left and he ran into Aro, I would not be discovered.

Once I got to know Emmett the way I did, I told him about my gift and did a block on his mind as well. It was about a few years later when Alice and Jasper arrived. I was lucky when I learned of Alice's gift I immediately blocked her from being able to see anything that pertains to my gift. I was only lucky that I hadn't worked on it in a while and Alice didn't know about it. Or if she did, she didn't say anything. Emmett and I would leave the family for a while under the guise of another honeymoon so that I could practice my gift. He has been a great help with everything and I couldn't get over how lucky I was to have him.

I was brought out of my thoughts by Emmett entering out bedroom. I looked over my shoulder at him and smiled.

"Hey sweetheart," He said and came over and kissed my forehead.

"Hey Em, how was hunting with the guys?" I asked as I set my brush down on my vanity.

"It was alright," he shrugged. "I got a bear and a few buck."

I smiled softly to myself and nodded. Bear was Emmett's favorite and I knew he loved wrestling with them before eating them. I tried it before and it really did make the blood sweeter.

"Come on, babe, we gotta get to school." He said as he patted me on my arm.

"Alright, I'll be right there." I replied and looked back in to the mirror once more before following Emmett out of the bedroom door.

(Jasper's POV)

I could feel her coming closer as I stood against Edward's Volvo getting ready to go to school. The front door opened and Emmett came out followed by her… Rosalie. It killed me to see them together, but I knew that she didn't love me. She loved her husband.

We jumped in our cars, me and Alice with Edward in his Volvo and Rose and Emmett in Emmett's jeep, and then headed to Fork's High.

When Alice first found me, she told me all about the Cullen's and Rosalie and that she saw her as my mate, but a week before we arrived, she said that Rosalie and Emmett got together. She said that the best thing to do would be to pose as mates. We attempted a relationship together, but the feelings I had for Rose were too strong. We hadn't done anything more than casual kissing ever since just to keep up the image.

Emmett was such a great guy and I could never let my feelings be known and ruin the friendship we have. But out of everyone in the family, I was closest to Rose. We posed as twins a couple of times and we developed a bond that I didn't have with the rest of the family. She accepted me right away, no questions asked, scars and all. The rest of the family was petrified of me when Alice and I first showed up at the Cullen's, but not her. She didn't feel a single ounce of fear, only compassion.

We pulled into the school's parking lot and stepped out of the car. This year, I was playing Jasper Whitlock, the first time I used my real name since I lived with the Cullen's. The story was that I was Carlisle's nephew and came to live with them when my mom died. Carlisle's brother, my dad, had died when I was a kid. Rosalie was playing Rosalie Hale and was the first they had adopted when they found out that Esme couldn't have children. She started out as a foster child when she was in second grade, and she never changed her name over to Cullen. Alice and Emmett were all playing children that they had adopted when they were in third grade and were brother and sister. Edward was Esme's nephew. Her sister got pregnant and died during child birth. His father had committed suicide after Edward's mom died, leaving Edward to Esme. Emmett, Rosalie and I were playing seniors, while Edward and Alice were playing juniors.

The warning bell rang and we made our way toward the school and through the front doors, getting ready for another day of high school.
