"Oh My My My"
Part 1
---------------
"She said, I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my"
I giggled as I ran through the back door, quickly being caught up to by a huge nine year old Emmett. Picking me up, he began tickling me mercilessly as he carried me into the kitchen. Gasping for breath, I tried futilely to free myself of his grasp.
"Em", I panted, "stop it, pretty please." I begged in the sweetest voice while all but breathless.
"Nu uh Belly, this is what you get for making me chase you," he bellowed out, green eyes sparkling with mischief.
"Emmett Cullen, you put Bella down this instant, do you hear me?" His mother, Anna, playfully scolded him, my mom's shoulders shaking with silent laughter beside her.
He looked up at where they stood preparing Sunday lunch sheepishly, as if he hadn't been caught red-handed, "Yes mom," he mumbled as he lowered me to on my feet.
"Thanks Emmy-bear," I rose up on my tippy-toes patting his head of thick, brownish black curls.
"Anytime Belly Button," he replied as our dads looked at us from there seats at the table, laughing at the scene before them.
I scrambled up into my seat as Em walked off.
As I was seated I heard Emmett's dad, Daniel, joking to mine, "Look at those two, practically half in love already." I'm sure they saw the blush that quickly covered my flushed face, for their laughing only grew as I got up and scampered over to mom and Miss Anna.
They looked down at me, head shaking and eyes rolling as they looked back over at the two men.
"Oh, my, my, my, they're almost as bad as the kids, those two." Mom said to Anna as they resumed getting lunch ready, while I ran off to find Em yet again.
"Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
Said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me
You never did, you never did"
I sat in the tree house in Em's back yard, legs folded Indian-style, book in hand.
I spent a lot of my time at the McCarty's house, as Em did mine. Both our dads worked all hours off the day and night, and our moms stay at home, resulting with us spending practically all of summer together.
"Hey Em?" I called out, breaking the silence.
"Hmm," he barely glanced at me over his comic book.
"Let's go toss some ball," I asked, wanting to do something besides sit and read.
"Mkay Belly Bean," he nonchalantly agreed.
Grabbing the ball, I scampered over to the ladder, Em following closely below me, to ensure my safety as I carefully made my way down.
We had been tossing the ball back for all of two minutes before I tucked it under my arm and began running around the backyard.
"Belly, you wanted to toss the ball, so come on and toss it", I could her the grin in his voice.
"Nu uh," I yelled at him, "gotta catch me first."
With that he took off after me, chasing me around the tree.
"Belly, you better give me the ball before I beat you up for it," his voice exasperated.
I quickly stopped in my tracks turning to face him, "You wouldn't! You couldn't!" I taunted him.
"Yes I could, I'm bigger than you are, I could if I wanted to."
"Okay Emmy Bear, whatever you say," I grinned back at him, taking off yet again, ball tucked under my arm, a laughing Em chasing me.
