Chapter 7-Rose in Bloom

This chapter was originally posted on 11/17/14


Rose loved her new magical powers and practiced them everyday while her mother thought she was at either drama or study clubs.

Her favorite for target practice was the paparazzi


She either barbecued them or......


Froze them solid.


No matter what she did, she was having a great time!


When she wasn't practicing magic she was getting to know the wealthier families in town, she was especially interested in Jareth Alto who was the most eligible bachelor in town.


Both the Alto's and Landgraab's would be easy for her to cozy up to since both families loved her mother's books and made huge donations to her cause, so either family would do. Jareth was the one she desired in more ways than monetary.


When Jareth's father died, Rose was the first one who came to console him.  She knew that he was way older than she but she was counting the days until her young adult birthday.


One day Rose came home early to a surprise.

Rose: Mother what in the world is going on here and who is this blue haired idiot?

Emit: Young lady I happen to be a genius

Holly: Rose I would like you to meet an old friend of mine back from my home.  His name is Emit and sorry to break the news to you this way but we plan to be married

Rose: Charmed to meet you.  Listen do whatever you want just do not give me any blue haired siblings.

Rose went back outside to practice her magic and forget what she saw.  She couldn't care less about her mother and that guy right now, she was almost a young adult and would be out of here soon enough.


The next day Rose decided to read the society page and this is when her whole world came tumbling down as she read this engagement announcement.

Mrs Eleanor Alto proudly announces the engagement of her son Jareth to Miss Carly Benton, daughter of Dahlia Benton.


This couldn't be happening!  She always planned on Chris Landgraab is a back up plan but she loved Jareth and he was the one she wanted. 


This wedding was not going to happen and Rose had a plan.  Carly was just about to find out how miserable life could be because hell hath no fury like Rose Wood scorned.

Each night she called to make sure Carly was home.

Rose: Hello Carly is your refrigerator running............Well you better go catch it.


Rose went to Carly's house later that night and caused a distraction to get her outside.


This is when Carly would get the freezer burn treatment.


One night Carly came out and gave Rose some news and a bit of advice.

Carly: Listen Rose the whole town knows you been drooling over Jareth with your school girl crush, so if you want him he is yours because we just broke up.  I shouldn't tell you this but after all you are still a kid, Jareth uses women to get what he wants.  Loves them and leaves them.  You will get one night and that is all with him, do yourself a favor and find someone else.

Rose: Maybe with you he did, but he won't with me.

Carly: Just go away and leave me alone.

Rose left happily because she thought that Jareth came to his senses about Carly.  Rose had to start preparing for her birthday which was coming up the next day.


This time Holly did not forget and she threw a big party.  Rose blew out the candles and she wished for a big house, big bank account and becoming Mrs. Jareth Alto.

Carly showed up uninvited, but Carly showed up to give Rose a bit of news, which to Rose's dismay was confirmed the next day.


Jareth moved on and was now involved with Sonja St John.  Rose started to think maybe Carly might be right about Jareth. 


As Rose was just about to pick up the phone to call Chris, Holly asked Rose to sit and have a talk about the future.  What Rose didn't know at the time she was just about to find out everything she didn't know about herself.

  2. You ain't seen nothing yet with Jareth, total womanizer.

    Paparizzi are good for something, skilling spellcasting on witches, they come in pretty handy for that.

    1. Ha, that is very true! I also like to use Bella Swain for skilling :P And given that I usually have around 3 of them hanging out outside my house there's no shortage on willing test subjects! (if they weren't willing they'd just leave, right?)

    2. I like that logic! Unless skilling a witch I usually get rid of the paparizzi with the registrar mod now. They get in the way too much when you are trying to take screenshots.

      Is Bella Swain from the same Swain family from Moonlight Falls? Holly and Emmett's second son Verne marries into that family.

  3. Uh oh... I wonder how Rose will take the news. Part of me thinks she will be happy because she can be by herself and cause havoc without her mom there to annoy her. LOL. I don't know if Rose might miss her mom one day though, right now it doesn't seem like she would. Heehee, her doing all those spells to the paparazzi, I wonder if she ever ran across her father because he was a paparazzi, not that she would know that because Holly didn't tell her. Aww, so sad for Rose that she loved Jareth but he looks like he didn't share the same feelings. It makes me wonder if she'll do something to him for breaking her heart.

    1. At this point in Rose's life she just wants to be free to find her rich husband and live a life of luxury. With Rose being evil she would naturally be drawn to the Altos but Jareath is a player who doesn't want to settle down with just one girl. In many ways she is a bit naive to think she could change someone like him but she is sure as hell going to try.

      About the paparizzi she never did run into him because somehow he died and wasn't even an elder. Thanks for reading.

    1. I do have to apologize for the pictures. These were saved on Imageshack and some of them were lost due to a problem at Imageshack. I don't use Imageshack anymore but I did when this was first posted.

      Rose's traits are evil and neurotic which I found out is not a very good combination. I randomized traits for her and that is what the game gave me. Jareth is a womanizer and Rose set her sights on him. It is for the money but if I were him I would watch my step with Rose.

  5. Okay, Rose is pretty unlikable, but I do feel a little bad that Jareth moved on so quickly. She was pretty rude to her mother though when they announced their marriage. Now that Rose (and I still want to call her Rosie) is a young adult, I wonder what mischief she'll get into. ;)

    1. Feel free to call her Rosie and at this stage in her life she is pretty unlikable and things are about to go downhill from here.

  6. Girl's got daddy issues, clearly. Also, I would go with the backup plan. Landgraab name smells with money. Could buy the sportscar she always wanted.

    1. She just wants someone with a big bank account even if it isn't Jareth. Landgraab money is old money, so much better than illegal Alto money.
