Rosabella's POV
It's been a few days since we met the original couple and let's just say quite a bit has happened since. For some odd reason everyone worships the ground that Evangeline walks on, you would think she was some human goddess with the way they talk about her. My friends can't stop going on and on about how kind she is or how pretty she is, blah blah blah.

On another note, I'm pretty certain most people in this house are pissed at me but oh well, what can you do? I mean it's their own fault I flipped my switch, if they hadn't have chosen Evangeline over me then we wouldn't be in this position. Besides it's not like I meant to kill those people in the past few days, all 43 of them. Needless to say, nobody was really happy about that; well apart from Satana who found my behaviour hilarious, she is a demon to be fair though. Anyways, it isn't like anybody has tried to flip my switch back either.

We have been visiting the castle every day for some stupid reason which I'll never understand, yeah I understand we need to get them to come out of hiding but we haven't even gotten around to that conversation yet which completely baffles me.

Jetts been moping around the house recently too, he hasn't been sleeping in our room which, I hate to say it, even with my humanity off it kind of hurts me. I just don't understand why he isn't trying to get me back to.. well, me. Come to think of it, he hasn't even properly spoken to me since that day at the castle, I thought girls were supposed to be the complicated ones.

Anyways, right now I'm sat in the attic by myself, the guitar on my lap as I decided I would decorate it, being my creative self and all. I have decided on a simple moon design which I thought was cute and I'm just finishing up the gloss finish to make sure my design doesn't chip and I set the guitar aside to dry.

I hear footsteps and turn to see Satana enter the room. She sends me a smile and then sits on the swing chair opposite me.

"What have you been up to?" She asks me as she grabs a lolly pop from the bowl on the table.

"Nothing much, painted my guitar." I reply while gesturing to the newly painted guitar to which she smiles in awe before I continue, "Other than that, not much else seeing as everyone is angry at me." I shrug and she just chuckles before replying,

"I'm not angry at you Rose, yes...you turning your humanity off isn't the greatest thing but they can't really be angry at you seeing as nobody has actually tried to talk to you about it."

"Exactly, like they all just walk around the house in a pissy mood but nobody has actually tried to get me to turn it back on. Until they stop acting like whiny little children, I'll continue to have fun." I say with a laugh and she joins in.

"So why haven't you turned it back on?" She asks curiously and I think about it before answering,

"Well every time it's been turned back on it was because of Jett. But this time, I feel like Jett's been avoiding me like the plague and until he actually comes to talk to me then I'm not turning it on. Don't get me wrong, I'd turn my humanity back on right here right now but what's the point if the person who makes me happy is just going to make me upset by avoiding me." She sends me a sympathetic smile.

"So your just avoiding getting hurt?"

"Pretty much." I send her a tight lipped smile and she just nods as I grab myself a lolly pop too. "So what have you been up to?"

"I was with Danny watching some movies with little Dominic but I got bored. I was gonna go to the living room but Jetts busy moping and it's making me sick, so I thought I'd come see my best friend." She shrugs and I nod in response.

"Can I ask you something?" I ask her and she looks a little confused but nods nonetheless.

"What's so great about Evangeline? Why does everyone like her more than me?"

"Aw Rose, they don't like her more than you! They just like her because she intrigues them. It's not every day that you meet someone who looks exactly like your friend but acts nothing like her."

"Yeah but it feels like ever since our friends even heard of the prophecy, the only thing they ever talk about is Evangeline. It just feels like now they have her I'm being replaced." I can slowly feel my humanity coming back as I finish this and make no effort to prevent it.

"Rose look at me." She lifts my chin so I look into her eyes, "You are amazing, okay? You're an incredible person and although sometimes your impulsive and mean, you have a heart of gold and you're extremely loyal. Don't let your thoughts poison your self confidence! You're irreplaceable Rose and I would much rather have you as my best friend than anybody else, especially Evangeline."

I don't even notice that I'm crying until she wipes my tears. Satana pulls me into a tight hug as I cry softly into her shoulder, all the emotions from the past few days rushing back to me. I take shaky breaths to calm myself before pulling away and sending a sad smile to Sate.

"You're my best friend Satana, I love you so much. Thank you."

"I love you too Rose, but don't tell anybody I'm as sappy as that."

"Wouldn't dream of it Sate." I laugh quietly and she joins in.

I can honestly say that I would protect this girl from anything. I never had friends before; I never wanted them. However sitting here, laughing with Sate, I can honestly say she is the best friend I could have ever dreamed of. She stands with me through everything and doesn't see me as a heartless bitch like everyone else and if it ever came to it, I would save her life over mine any day.
