The Save-A-Lot Chronicles

He works in the meat department. She is a cashier. Struggling college students just trying to keep up. One of his smiles a day keeps her pain away. It's only an added bonus that he wants to show her just how good his meat really is. M for future lemons. AH. Em/B

1. Chapter 1

So, um, yeah. This story is based on how my cousin's met. Really just the whole grocery store scene, not the dialogue. Heh heh. That's all mine.

I've decided to make this an Emmett/Bella story because Emmett seems to just fit this part so well...I wasn't planning on making this a drabble story, but this first chapter, I really just wanted to get out as a tester chapter. It's not going to end up as a drab if you guys like it.

Thanks for reading. Disclaimer on my profile, as always. Hope you love this, review! -Ann

"Morning, Bella!"

"Good morning, Em."

His smile. Pearly white teeth that shine, dimples that make my heart melt, and eyes that light up the rest of my day. Seeing that smile every morning kept me going. It was like a caffeine shot that never ran out.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

"Will that be all for you today, ma'am?"

I glanced back to the meat counter when I heard the thwack of the cleaver.

"Yes, thank you."

"Thirteen seventy-three."

Thwack. Thwack. Ch-Ching.

"Thanks for shopping with Save-a-lot foods, please come again."

Thwack.

This time when I looked up, he was looking back. He smiled, waving with the cleaver in his hand.

"Bella, you've got to try this bratwurst I've got back here!" My face flamed. It was a good thing we were the only two in the store.

"I'd love to try your bratwurst, Em."

So...this was so short. Yeah, first shot at a drabble chap. How did I do? Just a reminder, the rest will NOT be drabble. Just this to see how well it turns out with all of you. Thanks for reading! REVIEW! -Ann
