So here is my first Emmett's POV! This basically a small look into Emmett's mind. It doesn't go into a lot of detail but it still lets you in on what he was thinking. I'm not sure how often I will do this, I know it won't be nearly as often as I update the actual story... Well, I hope you enjoy it :) DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OW TWILIGHT!

I never thought I could fall for someone so fast. I suppose I should be a little scared, but I just couldn't make myself have that reaction. I really truly liking her when I first saw her. I mean she is gorgeous. I love how good she is with the kids.

Those kids are the most important things in my life. If anything happened to them I think I would die. Knowing that Lauren treated them the way she did right under my nose make me furious. I cannot describe how bad that makes me feel. As long as I live I will never be able to make that up to my kids, but that won't stop me from trying.

It seems like my kids will finally be getting the mom that they deserve. I know, I know. It's pretty early to be thinking of Bella as their mother. But, she treats them that way and in all honesty I think she thinks of them as her kids as well.

The same goes for me with Graham. He is such a good kid and he gets along with the whole family. Both Bella and Graham fit so effortlessly into my life. I know that Graham has a dad that is in his life and is awesome with him, but I mean how can another one hurt?

My attraction to her sored very early on. The day that she made that video of the kids doing a talent show. I couldn't believe she thought to do that. The whole talent show in itself was an awesome thing to do. She wanted to get to know Zach and get him comfortable with her. Not everyone would care if Zach liked them or that he was quiet. I loved that she cared about my kids even then. She is just a loving person.

It was good to find out that her personality was just as wonderful as her looks. That can be hard to find in a woman, trust me I found that out the hard way.

We began to hang out more and more when I had days off (or short days). It was wonderful. I fell for her more and more each day; with every new thing I found out about her. One day at the park I got enough courage to ask her to my parents' cook out.

It started with her commenting on my weirdness. "You know, you're weird… I like it!" she said with a smile on her face.

"Thank you! My sister says that my type of weirdness isn't appreciated. Maybe I should record you saying that so that I have proof." I replied.

She agreed with me, "Maybe you should."

That's when I decided to man up and ask her to come to the cook out. I wanted her to meet my family. "Oooooor you could tell her yourself. My family is having a cook out and I just remembered that she said I could invite whoever I would like. So, you can come if you want. You can bring Jake and Graham of course." This all came out of my mouth so fast that I'm sure it sounded like one long ass word. And yea you heard right, I chickened out a little, telling her she could bring the baby daddy. Yea, it's not a date any more. But that's ok I will still get to hang out with her.

But she actually seemed happy about the invitation. Of course, ever the worrier, she had to make sure she wasn't invading a family event. However, by this time I was pretty much thinking of her and Graham as family… She doesn't need to know that.

I suppose it was a good thing I chickened out of inviting her as my date, because it would have been sucky to have to be late to my first date with her.

That cook out was the best thing that could have happened for us, I think. Even though I got there late, I got to meet all of Bella's friends. They all seemed pretty nice from what I could tell. However, I don't think I was paying too much attention to them. Most of my attention was on Bella. That might make a stalker… I don't know.

But, Jake caught me staring at her.

"So, you like the baby mama. Huh?" He asked.

"I um…" I wasn't sure what the protocol was for confessing your feelings about a guy's best friend/baby mama.

"No worries man. I don't mind if you do. You seem like a good guy. But, if you hurt her or Graham I will have to kill you and hide the body." He stated.

"Oh. Well, um yea. I really do like her. Truthfully I was going to ask her to come here as my date, but I chickened out." I told him.

"Dude, man up! She likes you too."

I rose my eyebrows at him. "How do you know that?"

"I've known her my whole life. I know her tells. She keeps looking over here at you. She's just a little more subtle than you about it." He replied. That made me blush a little, which made Jake laugh pretty loudly…

So yea I did as Jake told me, and manned up. I finally asked her out and she said yes! The kids seemed ok with us dating. Actually they seemed pretty excited about it. I was happy that Zach and Mia seemed to love Bella as much as I do.

After we talked to the kids we went to talk to my parents. We caught them making out… not too fun. Geez. I'm a grown man and they still possess the ability to embarrass the crap out of me. But, I would endure that embarrassment a thousand times over to hear Bella laugh like that again. Yup, I'm definitely falling hard for her. If I fall anymore there isn't going to be any space left; I will be all the way in the lake of love. But guess what? I wouldn't mind at all.

When we got to my car we realized out dilemma. We don't want to leave each other, but we have to get to the same place with two cars. Finally, after thinking for a while I told her I would drive her to the date and then pick her up tomorrow. I was already formulating a plan to get to her house early so I could take her out again. Especially since I would have to go into work the day after. I wanted as much time with her as I can.

When we got to the diner we made a lot of conversation. It was nice that we never seemed at a loss of things to say to each other. The waitress sucked, but I could handle that. At one point I was trying to get rid of that horrible waitress and I accidentally called Bella my girlfriend. After the shock wore off of her, she gave me crap about not asking and not being romantic. So I have her romance.

"Well, ok then." I stood up and cleared my throat before starting to talk loud enough that everyone in the diner could hear me. Yea I'm mean, she has told me before that she doesn't like to be the center of attention but I couldn't help myself. . "Hey, can I have everyone's attention for just a second? I'm Emmett and my lovely date here is Bella. I have an important question for her, which apparently needs to be romantic. So, I figured what romantic gesture is better than embarrassing the crap out of her?" I looked over at her to make sure I was indeed embarrassing her. Which, of course I was. She had her head on her hands peeking at me through her fingers. She was blushing as red as a tomato, though she was trying to hide it. I loved it! "Anyway, Bella, will you be my girlfriend?" Apparently asking someone to be your girlfriend is nowhere near as exciting as asking someone to be your wife, because everybody simply went back to what they were doing as soon as I was done making a fool out of both of us. But I refused to sit until she answered me. "Bella, are you going to answer me?"

"Emmett, sit down." She hissed out at me. Her anger wasn't as intimidating as she thought it was.

"I can't until you answer me…"

"Fine. Yes, Emmett. You are my boyfriend and I'm your girlfriend. Just sit down." I did as she asked, but instead of sitting on the opposite side of the booth I sat right next to her.

"So, you're my girlfriend. That means I get to kiss you all the time. Right?"

That put the smile back on her face. "I suppose it does." She said.

This commenced our first kiss. It was amazing. Her lips were so soft. I kept pulling her face closer and closer to me. I couldn't help myself, but she seemed to be ok with that. We kissed like that until neither of us could breathe. I, however, refused to stop. I guess I would rather pass out than stop kissing this beautiful woman. She had to make the move to pull away.

After the kiss, the waitress was still being disrespectful. But Bella took care of that. She told that woman off and demanded a new waiter. Let me tell you that was so hot! I don't know what it is about her, but when she's angry she looks even more gorgeous.

The date continued on fairly easily. Then I had to take her home. I didn't want to say goodbye and it seemed like she didn't want to either. Which made my night. We locked into another kiss and again she had to pull away. I definitely wasn't going to…

I finally left her to go to bed. I don't think I could have done it if I hadn't already decided to come over in the morning and take her to breakfast.

I did just that the next morning. We I got to her house she was acting a little strange and jumpy. But I let it go, she eventually told me what happened. I couldn't believe her dream. Maybe she was just as entranced with me as I am with her. One could only hope. When she told me about it I realized that I was definitely in love with her…

The only question was, is it too early to tell her that? Would she think I am crazy for feeling so deeply for her after only a few months of knowing each other and not even a day of dating? I need advice!

This brings me to where I am now, in the kitchen with my dad and Edward (after being practically banished from hanging out with my mom, Alice, and Bella). I was telling them everything about our relationship. Not just the dates, but what happened even before that. How much I already loved her…

"So, what do you think? Is it too early to feel like this? Am I moving too fast?" I asked them.

My dad was the first to answer. "No, son, I don't think it's too fast. It might seem that way to other people, but as long as the pace is comfortable for you and Bella that's all that matters."

"That's the thing, what if she will think I'm moving too fast?

"You'll never know if you don't put yourself out there." Edward chimed in. "For me I knew I would spend the rest of my life with Alice in a month. But, unlike you I couldn't hold it in. I blurted out at the library. Like loudly. She just looked at me and told me 'of course you do. I love you too.' And went back to studying."

"That is a lot less dramatic than what I expect from Alice." I replied.

"I know that's what I thought" He said with a laugh.

"I knew the day I met your mother and I told her that too. She slapped me. But she secretly loved it, because she accepted my date request. She didn't tell me she loved me until probably six months later. You don't always have to be on the same page." Dad said.

"So, you think I should tell her?" I asked.

"If you feel it you should have to keep it bottled in." Edward told me.

I guess that made sense. But I didn't have much time to think about it anymore at the moment, because we heard the girls heading in here.

When they walked in Bella looked really happy. She must like gossiping with the girls. Not that I can say much, I was pretty much doing the same thing with dad and Edward.

"Hey everyone." She said in a very chipper voice.

"Hi Bella!" Dad and Edward replied, while I walked over to give her a big bear hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Carlisle and Edward must be pretty loud because just a few seconds out after they yelled out the greeting we all heard loud footsteps and an even louder voice calling. "MOM!"
