{Three weeks Later}

Today is the day that everyone teenager can't wait to come. Graduation.

As Rosie stood in front of her mirror in a white dress and her cap and grown. That wasn't what she was looking at her though. She was looking at what lay on her bathroom counter.

"Rosie! It's time to go," Caroline yells making Rosie throw everything in her trash before running downstairs.

"Coming," Rosie says as she heads downstairs. The Forbes family was going to Salvatore's Boarding's house before heading towards the high school. All the seniors riding together.

"Ready," Rosie says making Caroline smile at her.
"Today is a friend day. Promise me," Caroline says making Rosie smile.

"Promise," Rosie tells her as the two lock arms and head outside where their mom was waiting to drive them.

"Mom, are you crying?" Caroline asks hearing her moms sniffles.

"My babies are all grown up," Liz says as she wipes her tears away making Rosie and Caroline look at her sadly.

"We love you mom," Caroline and Rosie say together making Liz smile at them.

"I love you both my babies," Liz tells the two as they arrive at the boarding house.

Getting out Rosie was immediately brought into a hug and spun around.

"You are graduating!" Damon yells happy with a smile on his face making Rosie laugh.

"Yes I know Dames," Rosie says as she taps his shoulders to put her down. The two walk inside the house.

"Rosie," a voice yells as Lexi runs towards the brunette hugging her making Rosie laugh as she hugs her back.

"I am so happy for you. And Stefan. And Klaus," Lexi says making Rosie raise an eyebrow at the blonde.

"Lexi are you drunk?" Rosie asks making Lexi gasp offended but nod.

"You want some?" Lexi asks making Rosie shake her head with a smile.

"No I do not want to trap walking on the stage, and be that girl," Rosie tells her making Lexi nod in agreement as Stefan walks up to the pair.

"Lexi, are you trying to get her drunk?" Stefan asks as he wraps an arm around Rosie who smiles leaning into Stefan.

"She said no Stefan. Stop being a party pooper," Lexi says making Stefan shake his head.

"Alright time to go!" Caroline yells making Rosie look at her confused.

"We just got here and half of the graduates aren't here," Rosie says confused making Caroline turns to her.

"A storm is coming so they moved graduation up an hour," Caroline says making Rosie look wide-eyed.

"Let's go!" Rosie yells as everyone including the Forbes, Salvatores, Katherine who had tears in her eyes, and Lexi got in the car and headed toward the high school.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Getting there Rosie sees students, all in caps and gowns, milling about the football field getting ready for the ceremony.

"Rosie. Stefan come on theirs waiting for us!" Caroline says pulling her sister and Stefan following the two towards where Rebekah, Bonnie, and Tyler were waiting for them.

As everyone surrounds each other Rosie looks at them with tears in her eyes.

"I can't believe it. We're actually all here. We are all here together!" Caroline exclaims loudly making everyone laugh.

"Rosalie Forbes, are you crying?" Caroline asks making Rosie shake her head as everyone looks at her.

"It's the ending of an era before we all go our separate ways," Rosie says as Caroline wraps an arm around her twin.

"Well, the perks of being a vampire – we can go wherever we wanna go. We can see each other whenever we want!" Caroline exclaims making Tyler Stefan Bonnie and Rebekah chuckle at Caroline's enthusiasm, while Rosie smiles with tears in her eyes.

"I'm happy we're all here together," Rosie tells her twin making Caroline hug her.

"Aw – group hug!" Caroline exclaims making everyone groan but start hugging.

"Ah, I don't – I don't hug...," Stefan tries to say but Rosie brings him in the hug making him shake his head before kissing the top of her forehead as the group of six close in for a joint hug.

"Graduated lineup," is heard making the group separate as they go get in their assigned spot Rosie and Caroline walking together.

"Welcome parents, family, and friends. What a beautiful day for a graduation. Thank you for joining us today on this special day, as we celebrate our graduates," Mayor Carol Lockwood says as Rosie and Caroline squeeze each other hands.

"So let's get started. John Albrecht. David Bance. Sarah Beasley."

"Bonnie Bennett!" Mayor Lockwood says making Caroline and Rosie scream as Bonnie walks up onto the stage and accepts her diploma. 

"That's our best friend!" Caroline and Rosie yell making Bonnie shake her head with a blush on her face.

"Savannah Davis. Matt Donovan. William Duncan."

"Caroline Forbes!" Mayor Lockwood says making Rosie scream at the top of her lungs.

"That's my twinny bitches!" Rosie yells making many laugh as they shake their head at the brunette.

"Rosalie Forbes!" Mayor Lockwood says as Rosie starts walking across the stage accepting her diploma.

"That's my sister!" Caroline yells as the twins make eye contact and Rosie looks in the stands and sees her mom with tears falling down her face.

"Congratulations Rosie," Carol tells her making Rosie hug her.

"Thank you," Rosie says before she heads off the stage and goes and jumps in her sister's arms the two laughing as they jump up and down.

"Tyler Lockwood!" Mayor Lockwood says with tears running down her face as she hands Tyler his diploma. Tyler hugs his mom who hugs him tightly whispering something in his ear. 

"I love you my little puppy!" Rosie yells making Tyler roll his eyes as he walks off the stage.

"Rebekah Mikaelson!" Mayor Lockwood says and Rosie could hear Kol yelling in the stands for his sister.

"That's the baddest bitch!" Rosie yells making Rebekah laugh.

"Stefan Salvatore!" Mayor Lockwood says making Rosie whistle as she claps.

Once he walks off the stage he wraps his arm around Rosie kissing her lips making many wolf whistles heard making Rosie blush as Stefan smirks.

Soon all the graduates were done being announced and Rosie suddenly had arms around her spinning her around before she is put down and spun around again.

"Kol! Kai! Put her down!" Klaus and Stefan yell making both huff and pout as they put the brunette down who was a little bit dizzy from the spinning making Stefan stabilize her.

"You okay?" Klaus asks as he cups her face making Rosie nod with a smile.

"With you two? Always," Rosie tells them making Klaus lean down and kiss her lips softly making Rosie smile into the kiss before she was pulled into a hug.

"I'm so proud of you Rosie," Jermey says making Rosie smile as she hugs him back.

"Thank you, Jer. I love you," Rosie says making Jermey hug her back.

"I love you too," he tells her making Rosie smile at him.

Once Jeremy lets her go Rosie is pulled in a hug by her mom with Caroline making the twins smile.

"Love you, mom," they say at the same time.
"Love you more," Liz tells them as someone claps their hands.

"Now let's go party at the Mikaelsons mansion!" Kol yells making Damon and Kai yell yes as Rosie shakes her head.

"I need to go by the house first," Caroline says making Rosie nod.

"Bring me some makeup wipes, please. I used the last of mine at Klaus's a few nights ago," Rosie says making Caroline nod.

"I'll go with you Care," Rebekah says making Caroline nod as they leave.

"Come on love you can ride with me," Klaus says making Rosie nod as she walks towards his car with Stefan's arm wrapped around when waist and Klaus wrapped around her shoulders.

Nothing could ruin how happy she was. Her life was going exactly how she never wanted it to go but it was so much better.

Everyone was right. The best thing is what is unexpected and that is exactly what always happened to the youngest Forbes.

Meeting the Salvatore, learning about vampires, her connection to the supernatural, her sister turning, meeting the Mikaleson, and learning about soulmates. It was all unexpected and that was what made it so amazing.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Arriving at the Mikaelson mansion the party immediately starts. Rosie blocked it out as she smiled and leaned into Klaus's arms with Stefan beside her.

Both haven't let her go all night. Their need to protect her has grown more and moreover the last few weeks. They didn't want to let her out of sight.

"I will right back. I need to use the bathroom, but when I get back I need to tell you two something," Rosie says as she taps Klaus's hands making him huff but smile at her as he lets her go.

Rosie kisses their checks before heading upstairs both watching her go.

"She is my everything and more," Stefan tells Klaus making him nod.

"Mine too," Klaus tells him as they smile.

As Rosie gets to the bathroom she heads inside she does her busy before washing her hand and then starts to leave but the second she walks out she has a terrible feeling in her head making her fall to her knees as blood drips from her nose and she sees a figure looking down at her.

"You will pay," Esther says as she glares before Rosie passes out.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Meanwhile with Caroline and Rebekah. The two arrive at the Forbes house and walk inside.

"Alright let me get Rosie's makeup wipes," Caroline tells Rebekah making her nod.

As Caroline heads towards the bathroom with Rebekah the two grab the wipes under the sink but Caroline pauses seeing something in the trash.

"What is that?" Caroline questions making Rebekah look towards the trash. Caroline pulls out the box and pauses looking wide-eyed at the pregnancy test in her hand.

Both girls share a look before Caroline pulls out the positive pregnancy test out of the box both gasping.

"Rosie's pregnant," Caroline mumbles placing a hand over her mouth as she and Rebekah share a look of disbelief.

"How?" Rebekah asks making Caroline shrug not knowing how it was possible either.

"I don't know," Caroline says her disbelief clear on her face but she was also beyond happy. She was going to be an aunt! She sister was going to be a mom!

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Rosie wakes up rubbing her head as she looks around to see she is in some type of crypt.

"Where am I?" Rosie wonders in her head as a figure walks towards her.

"Oh your awake just in time," Esther says making Rosie glares at her.

"Why am I here?" Rosie asks as she gets up glaring at the witch.

"You took everything for me. I had the perfect plan. Kill my children but no you stopped it. Then you had all the witches turn against me besides a few," Esther says making Rosie huff.

"No I'm guessing they just want power and don't care who it comes from," Rosie says making Esther glare at her.

"The only way to get my magic back and back to full power to get rid of the evil I created I will need to sacrifice you," Esther says making Rosie immediately tense.

"You really think I will let you even try," Rosie says with a glare.

"You are no match for me," Esther says making Rosie raise an eyebrow.

"Want to bet," Rosie says with a teasing look on her face.

"Because I think you are forgetting one thing," Rosie says making Esther raise an eyebrow at her as Rosie smirk.

"I'm the queen, not you!" Rosie yells as she casts a spell at the original bitch!

"O se kwe pe se."
"Tenebris anima vestra contundito mortem."

Both yell at each other and just a moment later both Rosie and Esther fall to the ground neither moving.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

At the Mikaelson mansion, Caroline and Rebekah walk inside the house looking around for one person and one person only.

"Where's Rosie?" Caroline asks making Klaus and Stefan look towards her.

"Bathroom," Stefan tells her making her nod when suddenly Klaus and Stefan fall to their knees yelling in pain as they clutch their chest.

Everyone freezes. Damon Caroline and Tyler have seen this before. Kol and Kai knew what it meant knowing everything they knew about magic.

"No," Stefan and Klaus whisper at the same time with heartbroken expressions clear on their faces.
