Chapter 1
Bella:
I cannot believe my luck, or lack of, the cutest guy in school is my lab partner for bio and he is ignoring me, no not ignoring. He is glaring. He hates me.
What is his fucking problem? I just moved back here to Forks and instead of behaving nicely and showing friendship, he looks like he is ready to tear me an asshole. All I did was show up today. I was determined to figure out his issue, but right as the bell rang, he stood up and ran out of the classroom. Fuck, that was fast. I followed him as quickly as I could. He got in his car. Shit, I don't know if my truck can make it. He glared in his rearview mirror and sped up. I am pushing my truck too far at these speeds, luckily I know where the fucker lives, sort of. I heard Jessica and Angela talking about it in passing. The motherfucker is going to get an earful from me. Just as I pull in, my truck is getting pissy with me. "Shit!"
Emmett:
Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie and I just got back from Denali. I didn't feel bad about missing school. I've been doing to school thing for 80 or so odd years anyway. That is what you do as a vampire if you stay in one place for a while. You settle in, get a job or go to school. So hear we are in Forks,Washington for the last year. Alice, Jasper and Edward were in school today. I sat down and flipped through a Car and Driver of Rose's when Edward came rushing in. He was growling and pacing, burning a hole in Esme's new rug. His eyes were a voidless black. "Bro, What's up? Esme is gonna have your balls if you ruin that."
He rolled his eyes before I even said a word and stopped, putting his head in his hands then running his fingers in his hair in frustration. He is a brooding, melancholy soul anyway, but something wasn't right about his behavior. I decided to listen.
"We have to leave. I can't make it. I just met my singer."
"Did you kill her?"
Edward shook his head.
Alice skips in after having changed clothes. "I knew you wouldn't hurt her and I know you won't." She giggles at the doubtful and pained face of her brother
"Very fucking funny, Alice." Edward sneers, "I was on the precipice of losing control and killing the entire Biology classroom. But that isn't the worst of it. She was following me home, she is on her way now. I almost killed her, I can't be around her."
"If I had seen it, we would have been there to stop you, you have to trust my ability. We won't let you hurt her." She looked up at Jasper who had his arms around her, "She will be safe."
Edward visibly calmed, I knew that Jasper had a hand in that.
Just then we hear and door slam down the driveway. She was mumbling under her breath about her truck and Edward. Her scent blew in as she walked this way. "Fuck, she smells good." I can't help but savor it.
Edward is on edge, his throat must really be on fire. "I can't take this."
"You have to get out of here, NOW." Alice rang out, "Once you have hunted, you will be fine to come back and talk to her."
Carlisle steps up to Edward. "Jasper, you take Edward out to hunt. Go out the back. We will stay and see what she wants."
Jasper pulls a reluctant and brooding Edward along before his own thirst is challenged.
Alice is bounding up to the door. I cock my eyebrows up in question. "Her name is Bella Swan and she is going to be my new best friend." Oh, Alice and her visions. I hear Bella around the corner. "Oh, Alice! Hi. I need to talk to Edward. He not once talked to me but looked like he was going to bite my head off." Literally, I think to myself. "Someone needs to pull that stick out of his ass."
I couldn't help but laugh, nice mouth on that one. I wanted to see her.
"Sorry, Bella. He just stepped out. But you can wait here. Can I get you something to drink?"
I snickered at Alice but stopped abruptly as she came around the corner. She is wearing Silver and blue converse, faded blue jeans, and a big leather jacket. Her reddish auburn hair flows in ringlets over her shoulders. She is not petite, but she is not big in build. She is just the right size and delicious fucking curves. But my eyes keep traveling upward. I swear, if my heart still beat, it would be stopped this instant. Her bottom lip was trapped in her teeth and her blue green eyes were deep and fiery. There was an immediate connection and we were both transfixed on each other's gaze. NO fucking way! Like magnets, we were being pushed together. The electricity of her presence increased with each slow step I took.
She is my mate, I know it. Without even thinking, I ever so gently wrap my arms around her. "Bella, hello. I'm Emmett, Edward's older adopted brother." I release her and she blushes awkwardly, but then smiles. Up until that moment I forgot about everyone else in the room. I hear someone clear their throat.
"Bella, so nice to meet you." Esme shook her hand. Carlisle took hers as well, while studying me, "Bella. I'm Carlisle. You are the daughter of chief Swan?"
"Err, yes. Charlie is my dad. I just moved back with him." Bella turns her attention back on me and blushes again, probably cause I am grinning down at her like a big goofball, but I don't care.
Just then, the two bloodthirsty ones came in laughing, Jasper punched Edward in his arm playfully. Their cheeks were slightly flushed and eyes were nice honey-colored now. Edwards darkened as he came nearer, though, but he smiled. I was not going to take any chances. I protectively stepped toward the front of Bella. Edward looked at me and prodded my brain. "I won't let you hurt my mate."
His eyes widened with surprise.
Jasper felt the emotions in the room and kept his hand on Edward and gave me a smirk.
Edward closed his eyes took a small breath and opened them again. They were darker but then he nodded at me. "Bella, listen. I'm sorry I acted the way I did. I had an attitude problem today. It was nothing to do with you." Liar.
"Fine. That's okay. Will you give me a chance to jam the stick up your ass first next time?"
Edward actually chuckled at that.
"Listen, I gotta run before Charlie wonders where I am. My truck is dead, I pushed her too hard getting here."
"I'll take you home." Six vampire jaws went straight down, eyes wide." Shock, I just put my family in shock. This made me smirk.
"Uh, sure. Thank you, Emmett."
Alice was bouncing in glee, evidently seeing something. "Bella, call me, we have to go out to the mall together."
I escorted Bella out to the jeep, seeing it her eyes went wide and her smile was breathtaking. She liked it. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning.
Bella:
I can't believe my luck has turned this way. Oh my fucking god. Here I am in this fast, cherry red jeep being driven home by this huge ass guy, Emmett. He was so cute. He was big, for sure, and looked like he could crush anything with his bare hands. When he hugged me, though, he was as gentle as a teddy bear. He was cold but there was an electricity that sparked between us that was quite warm, especially in the lower regions of my abdomen. He had short hair, golden-green eyes and a knockout smile. When he smirked, I felt like I was going to melt. I feel all nerves pulsing in a new way down below and moisture collects threatening to ruin my panties. Holy fuck!
Before I know it he has pulled into Charlie's driveway. He turns the engine off. I giggle suddenly, "That was fun."
Emmett chuckles and takes a breath. Suddenly he freezes and looks at me in a way I have never been looked at before. I am perplexed and can't make heads of tails of his emotion right now. Is that lust? All I can do is just stare right back at him. Then he just smiles, "That was interesting." Yes that was lust, apparently he feels the same way about me.
"Mmmhmm."
"See you tomorrow?"
"Sure, thank you for the ride." He lets me out of my side and I slowly walk up to the house trying hard not to trip. Of course, that is just what I do. Smack. I hit the ground. He runs up to me worried. "Fuck, are you okay?" I nod, no serious injuries. I'm a walking catastrophe." He just burst out in laughter. "I'm glad I amuse you." I stick out my tongue.
He keeps laughing as he starts up the jeep and speeds down the road. I can't help but laugh as well. I couldn't help myself. He was contagious. I guess I needed a good laugh, because I couldn't stop even inside as I began to fix dinner. What the hell has gotten into me? After fixing dinner I sit down with Charlie to eat.
"What's up, bells? You look—I dunno—different."
I shrugged.
"I mean, you look happier than I think you have ever been here in Forks."
"I met a few new friends, the Cullens, they are so nice. I dunno, dad. I feel like I belong.."
"I'm glad for you, Bells. Just keep curfew." He laughs. I rolled my eyes. He thinks he is so funny. I have never had a problem obeying rules, including curfew. I was always the one looking after Renee. My mother is so fucking immature, I don't see howe she was one to keep me when they split. Maybe that is why I am so happy. The Cullens, well mostly Emmett, make me feel like I can act my age. Suddenly I feel like I can let go. I jump in the shower before bed. I close my eyes and let the water ease out any remainder of tension slip away. Despite the cold and rain, I feel warm. I go to sleep with slightly too warm, and vivid thoughts of Emmett flowing through my head. Not complaining, though, he can enter my dreams anytime. Fuck, my panties are ruined. I get up and change, deciding to give Alice a call.
