After their grueling time apart, Edward and Bella's relationship has seemingly stabilized and intimacy is moving in a positive direction... albeit a glacial one. Still, they're on a good path, growing closer and more comfortable after what was arguably Edward's most misguided attempt at keeping Bella safe.
It isn't until Edward catches an unexpected image in Jacob's mind that it dawns on him: Edward never asked about the extent of Bella and Jacob's physical relationship while he was away, or if such a relationship even developed between them at all.
As their own physical relationship evolves, Edward spends the following weeks trying to ignore his panic and jealousyโtorn between asking Bella if she and Jake had become more than friends and pretending it wouldn't matter either way. Was the image in Jacob's mind a typical teen boy's fantasy, or worse... a memory of something real?

Rosalie Hale is one of the most misunderstood characters in Twilight, largely because Bella is the protagonist and narrator in twilight and Edward is the narrator in Midnight Sun. We never really get an unbiased view of Rosalie. Through Bella's perspective, she often comes across as cold, shallow, or even cruel, but there's a lot more going on beneath the surface.
At first, Rosalie's dislike of Bella stems from two main things. The first is jealousy though not in the way people usually think. Rosalie was used to being admired for her beauty. As a human, her appearance was treated as her greatest asset because she grew up in a time when her parents viewed her beauty as a means to improve the family's social and economic status through marriage. Over time, Rosalie internalized the belief that her beauty made her valuable. So when Edward showed absolutely no romantic interest in her, despite showing interest in Bella, she took it as an insult to something she had always been taught defined her worth. It wasn't because she wanted Edward; it was because she couldn't understand why he didn't want her.
The second reason is much more practical: Bella genuinely posed a risk to the Cullens. She was a human who knew their secret, which endangered the entire family. If anything had happened to Bella or if one of them had lost control they would have been forced to leave. Rosalie's concerns weren't entirely unfounded. The Cullens eventually did have to leave because of Bella's involvement in their lives.
Then Bella decides she wants to become a vampire, which is where Rosalie's resentment deepens. For Rosalie, this is almost incomprehensible. She would give anything to be human again. Bella has the opportunity to grow old, change, experience new stages of life, have children, and build a future. Rosalie lost all of that the moment she became a vampire. So when Bella willingly throws that future away, Rosalie sees it as a tragic mistake. To her, Bella is a teenager making an irreversible decision without understanding what she might want in five years let alone five hundred.
Another criticism Rosalie receives is her behavior during Bella's pregnancy. Many people argue that Rosalie only cared about the baby and not Bella's wellbeing. But that's exactly why Bella turned to her in the first place. Bella knew Rosalie would prioritize the baby above everything else, even Bella's own safety. Bella wasn't shocked by that, nor did she feel betrayed by it. She specifically chose Rosalie because she knew where Rosalie's loyalties would lie. Rosalie gave Bella exactly what Bella wanted someone who would fight for the baby's survival no matter what.
Honestly, Rosalie is a deeply tragic character. A lot of her actions make more sense when you view them through the lens of someone who lost the life she desperately wanted and has spent decades mourning it. You don't have to agree with her choices, but reducing her to "the mean blonde vampire" misses a lot of what makes her interesting.
And while we're at it, I can't help noticing that Stephanie Meyer seemed to have a habit of making her blonde female characters the antagonistic or "mean girl" types.

Just a reminder that Bella and Jacob's fathers are named Billy and Charlie so by the law of Bella making the worst possible decisions her son with Jacob would have been named Barley

masterlist๏ธฑcross-posted on AO3๏ธฑprev. headcanons: nsfw!Battinson!Bruce headcanons๏ธฑnext: stay tuned!
partly based on this lovely ask
no nsfw, read under the cut!
โ would not be very talkative about his love for you, but there really wouldn't be much of a need for him not. he's always been way more of a hands on person, believing that gestures convey a lot more than words.
โ even though he is a little bit socially stunted and awkward, Alfred had always him to be a gentleman. being the only heir to the Wayne family and not being well-mannered would be "simply disastrous and, quite frankly, disgraceful". that translates into your relationship as well.
โ when you're driving somewhere, he will open the door for you to get in, and he will not let the valet open your door, even if they open his. expect flowers given to you at least once a week. each flower carefully picked by him, delivered to your bedroom door. doesn't matter if you've been dating for a month, or for years, it's just what he deems as appropriate. is (almost) never late. he will wait for you without complaints, and will arrive five minutes earlier to make sure you aren't waiting for him already. the only times when his punctuality isn't at the top of its game is when he's out late at night, investigating in the city streets or looping the nights footage in the cave.
โ acts of service are his love language, and so, small actions are the bare minimum to him. he will gladly kneel in front of you to help you put on your heels, for example. when you're eating together, he will pull your chair out for you without much thought. the gesture will be the same even if you're alone in the cold of the Batcave, when he'll quietly take of his thick hoodie to wrap it around your shoulders, or when you two just happen to be in public at a charity gala.
โ if your relationship is public, he will make sure that everyone knows that Gothams most sought after bachelor is no more. the small amount of public appearances him, and you as well, make will be more than enough to show it. sweet gestures in front of people and the cameras are a non negotiable. he does not necessarily want to show you off, but all of those actions are very passive. kissing your hand when he reaches to hold it while you two walk up the stairs, fixing a bit of smudged lipstick with his thumb, lovingly looking up at you whilst you're talking to someone else (even though he was supposed to pay attention and engage in conversation).
โ if your relationship came into the public eye accidentally, presumably due to paparazzi, he did a single interview. he didn't exactly lay his heart onto his sleeve for the whole world to see, but his feelings for you were so extremely obvious. and he definitely wasn't hiding it! praising you and explaining how smart, capable, calm, and kind you were was done without missing a beat. he was conservative on the comments about your looks. simply stating that 'the moment he first saw you, all the light of the world darkened and left you as the only illumination his eyes had ever had the mere luck to lay on'. so conservative.
โ when he does choose to use his words, he melts you. the words he uses always tend to be some of the most meaningful and sweet compliments you've ever received and strike straight into you. he has always been a man of few words, but telling you how every touch of your finger tips makes him believe that there is a heaven makes up for it. your stoic and calm nature can't last very long around those words. he will coo and whisper it into your ear softly, while hugging you from behind.
โ on the topic of hugging! physical touch is key to him. he had been so touch starved for all of his life, so when he finally feels comfortable to lean into your touch, he never stops. any moment of physical intimacy he can get, he will. there is the usual of holding your waist and holding your hand, hugging you as he falls asleep, but that isn't even the half of it. keeping his hand on your thigh while driving around the city, or asking you to just hold his arm while he has to use his hands for anything. being unable to touch you is like agony to him. kisses are always present. kisses for a good morning, for good night, for thank you, for i'm sorry, for i love you, and just for. kisses and small pecks on any part of your face and body. if he could, he'd spent the rest of his life softly laying his lips onto you.
โ he is simply smitten with you. even if he might not show it as much, you've taken his heart hostage and he never, ever wants you to let it go. some days he has to supress himself from laying his mind and feelings bare in front of you, as his tongue would just unravel and he won't be able to stop himself, probably ever. words would choke him but he'd gladly succumb to that if it meant you'd know a fraction of his feelings about you. sometimes he gives you tidbits though. and those words can keep you fed for days.
โ it is well known that Bruce has a habit of staring. the usual socially awkward stares have a whole different meaning when they're directed at you. he loves to look at you, to take in your whole presence. while you talk, he'll watch your lips move, your facial expressions and your gestures, trying to take in as much of you as possible. he'd watch your legs as you walked, your chest rise and fall as you'd breathe, your back when you're turned away from him, your eyes before you'd lean in to kiss him. he'd stand by and admire every milimeter of your skin.
โ he'd be okay with holding eye contact with you as well! he still isn't as comfortable with it as when he is in the Batsuit, but it is miles better than with others. every moment that he is able to hold eye contact with you is precious. he'd sink in every color of your irises, trying to see into your soul. not in order to understand some yet unspoken truth in between you, as he'd try with others, but in order to reach that final moment of closeness with you. to finally have you closer than ever. those little stares feel like heaven.
โ in short, bruce is head over heels in love with you. he'll kiss your cheek before bed and give you the sweetest compliments whispered into your ear before a rare public outing. he's always been a gentleman, but, before you, not even he himself knew he was a rotten romantic (or a good old-fashioned lover boy)
