Emmet's Secret
I, Emmett Jameson Cullen, Just bit my First Squirrel. The bad part is… IT WON'T DIE!!! I don't want to suck it clean because it tastes really bad… worse than when esme cooks for Bella and I try to eat it. Isn't that bad enough??? I shuddered at the thought. I squirrel cried out in pain but didn't try to escape me. I looked around anxiously, hiding my new friend from my family. "Only three days little Geoffrey, You'll be Okay." I whispered, not realizing how stupid I really am. A vampire Squirrel, what was I thinking… Carlisle would NEVER approve. "Sorry Geoffrey… I really am."
'MY BASKET' I thought. I dumped out the Cranberries from the large wicker Basket and put little Geoffrey inside. "Sorry about your casserole Bella, No Berries today… Just a new born Vampire Squirrel." I muttered to myself. I skipped out of the Forest, Wildflowers in one hand, Geoffrey in the other. I walked into Charlie's house where Bella was buttering the casserole dish for her great grandma Dyin (pronounced Diane….go figure) Swan's Cranberry casserole. "Bella, I couldn't find any cranberries today. Sorry." I muttered as I walked in the door. "That's fine," she said "I got some at the store. You were taking to long. By the way, who are the flowers for?"
"They're for Rosalie. Gotta go."
I walked into the gloomy light that was Forks and skipped back into the forest. I found myself following the familiar path to our home, just outside Forks.
"Hey Rose. I got you some flowers." I smiled at my soul-mate. "Oh. Um… Thanks. Since when do you carry around baskets and flowers and skip around in the woods?" she asked in a tone that suggested that she thought I had lost my mind. "I had a basket, and I had flowers, but I was NOT skipping." I mumbled. "Yeah right. Alice saw you and Edward read her mind and drew a picture. It's on the refrigerator if you wanna check it out." She was holding back a smile. I could tell. I grabbed her hand and walked into the kitchen. There held onto on the fridge by neon alphabet magnets was a POSTER of me with flowers in my hand and a basket skipping through the woods with an idiot smile on my face. I looked so retarded! I stared blankly at the poster and suddenly remembered my little friend, concealed in the basket at my side. "See ya later Rose." I pecked her lightly on the forehead and ran up the stairs to the empty bathroom that nobody used. I slammed the door shut, and by accident, broke one of the screws holding the hinges together. I remembered the time I, coughcough, accidentally, coughcough, broke the big leather couch in our living room while playing superman and spider man with Jasper (I was superman and he was spider man), and made a note to be more gentle next time.
I lifted the lid to the basket and Geoffrey jumped up and clung to my head. I tried to pry away his little claws, but man, was this is a strong little squirrel!!! Luckily it was my bathroom because he jumped to my fishy curtains next and totally shredded the bright green and yellow fish to strips of cloth. Those were my best shower curtains too! I could tell that this small rodent was going to be trouble, and lucky me. He was mine.
