Thank God for higher education (Emmett Cullen one-shot)

I do not own Twilight in any way.


I had just moved into my dorm. I was trying to lift one of my boxes.

"Need help?" a deep voice asked.

I looked up and saw the most buff guy I had ever seen. "Uh…yeah", I said.

He lifted my box and carried it to my room.

"Thanks", I said.

"I'm Emmett Cullen", he said.

"Sophie", I said.

Emmett smiled.

I went weak at the knees when I saw his dimples. I had to be the luckiest girl on Earth.

"Who's this?" Emmett asked, holding up a picture.

"Oh, that's my twin brother", I told him; "He's going to Harvard".

"Wow, it must be hard for him to be on the other side of the country", Emmett said.

"It's the opposite actually. We're from New Jersey", I told him.

"Oh", Emmett said.

"I don't like Jersey", I told him.

"Why?" he asked.

"It's so violent", I said, "I wanted to move to somewhere calmer. So I moved here".

"It hasn't always been calm. There were a string of murders a year ago. Freaked out yet?" Emmett asked.

"No", I said.

"I should take you sight seeing one day", Emmett said, "My family lives down in Forks".

"I'd like that", I said smiling.
