Starting from Zero and Got Nothing to Lose

By: Silverkaia

Summary: What if Emmett was the single Cullen? When a young woman named Phiona moves to Forks, Emmett begins to take notice. With a haunting past, will Emmett stay and become her teddy bear or will he walk away? All-human, late high school/early college fic. I kept the vampire characteristics like the color of the eyes but just made them human. Please READ and REVIEW!! I really like REVIEWS (they help me... alot.)

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own anything. Twilight and it's respective characters belong to Stephenie Meyer. Also the songs and song titles belong to their respective owners. Only Phiona and characters that create to the Twilight series belong to me. I have not and will not receive anything for the story. Wish I did though… but anyway, this story is vivid so viewer/reader discretion is advised (at least for later chapters).

A/N: Constructive Criticism is welcome. If you see ay errors or if you have any creative suggestions let me know.


Chapter 1: Give Me All Night

I have no need of half of anything

No half time, No half a man's attention

Give me all of the earth and sky

And at the same time add a new dimension

Half the truth is of no use

Give it all, Give it all to me

I can stand it, I am strong that way

Give me all night

Give me the full moon

And if I can't take a hold of you

Give it to me anyway

Give me all night 'til the last star fades

And if you can't take my heart and soul

Take it from me anyway

Take all my breath away

Give Me All Night by: Carly Simon

Phiona Williams ducked as her drunk father threw one of his beers at her retreating form. She slammed her bedroom door and snapped the lock before she sank to the floor. She heard the jingling of keys as her father left the house on yet another late night of sitting in sports bars and getting shit-faced drunk. Now was the time to put her plan in motion. She pulled her cell phone out of her hoodie pocket and dialed Detective Anderson's number.

"Hey, Phi. Has he left?" the male voice whispered through the phone.

"Yeah, he's heading your way in about 2 minutes." She replied before the sound of screeching tires and cursing reached her ears. Angry voices could be heard.

"Mr. Williams drop the gun!" A long pause. The command was yelled again and the cell phone seemed to drop onto something.

"Officer down! Officer down!" a voice yelled. Another round of shots were fired then utter silence. Someone picked up the phone.

"Phiona, this Officer Fredericks. Anderson is dead and so is your father. I'm sorry. We have two units headed to your house, alright. Just stay with me, okay. Can you do that?" a cool and collected voice asked.

"Yeah…. Is he really dead, my father?" Phiona stuttered.

"Yes, he opened fire and injured two officers. One of them was Anderson. It's alright now. He can't hurt you anymore." The voice seemed to calm Phiona as she answered the front door.

"The officers are here." Phiona replied.

"Okay get all of your things and go with them. alright."
