Hey! To those who have already read this story before, i split up chapter 4 into two. So chapter 5 isn't really new. I did add some details in and took so out but basically, the story us still the same. Go ahead and re-read it if you want. :)

At the age of five, Emmett McCarty met the love of his life. The person he knew he was meant to share his life with. She was pure perfection with long blonde hair that fell over her shoulders and down her back in gentle waves. She was tall, beautiful, and kind. Her eyes an exquisite deep blue color that reminded him of the purple lilacs his mother planted in her secret garden in the meadow somewhere in the woods behind their home. Emmett had once thought that his mother was the most beautiful and wonderful woman in the entire universe until he set his blue eyes on his best friend's older sister.

Rosalie Lilian Hale's imense beauty was not ignored by the sweet adorable Emmett. She had a soft spot for her baby brother's best friend. He was going to be one hellva looker when he got older, she was sure of that. But it wasn't because he was beyond cute that he held a part of her heart. It was because he had befriend and stood up for her brother when she couldn't.

The Hale family had only been living in Forks for a short time before Jasper and Rosalie entered their new schools.

Like always, Jasper was having trouble making friends. He was a loner. Tyler Crowley had a problem with that. He thought Jasper was a freak for playing with Legos in the corner of the room by himself or sitting alone on a patch of grass to look at picture books he brought from home.

Mrs. Hale came home one day with a sobbing Jasper in her arms.

Rage filled Rosalie as Jasper cried on her lap, clinging to her neck. Mrs. Hale explained how Tyler had purposely squirted his juice unto Jasper's favorite shirt. Rosalie wanted to find the little fucker and kick him across Washington state with her brand new Manolo Blahnik stilettos. She knew that wanting to harm a child was completely wrong but at the moment, she couldn't give a shit as she held her brother.

Emmett had seen Tyler bullying Jasper. He wanted to stop it but he remembered that he was back. He couldn't help Jasper just like he couldn't help his mother when nightfall came. He could only watch with his fists clenched up tight with the urge to throw a punch.

The next day, Emmett saw Tyler kick down Jasper's Lego building. Jasper's eyes watered but he stood strong his ground and pushed Tyler. Tyler, thinking he was better, shoved Jasper. Jasper landed on his butt. Tyler stood over him and laughed and finally, Jasper let the tears fall.

A quick flash came to Emmett: his mother curled up in the corner while his father stood over her, drinking his beer while Emmett peeked through the open door. He cried as he crawled into bed feeling really bad. He knew he couldn't do anything. His mother had told him that if he ever saw anything, to go to bed and stay there quietly until she came back. But this wasn't the same. He was tall and strong. Tyler was smaller than Emmett like most kids were.

So without thinking it twice, Emmett went right over to Tyler and punched his stomach. The satisfaction of having stopped someone from hurting another was short lived.

Mrs. Saybrook sent Emmett to the corner while she escorted Tyler to the nurse's office and Jasper to the principal's office where he waited for his mother to come pick him up. Emmett didn't even worry about the punishment that he was sure awaited him once he picked him up and took him home.

Later that day, after Jasper excitedly told Rosalie about how Emmett had stood up for him, Rosalie decided that she had to thank this Emmett kid.

And she did exactly that the following day when she picked up Jasper from the after school daycare program. Once Jasper had introduced Rosalie to Emmett, she immediately pulled the brawny angel faced boy into her arms and kissed his rosey pink cheeks with gratitude.

Emmett's heart rate picked up with her touch. He had barely been able to utter a hello in her presence and now his heart soared as she hugged him. And that was when he knew.

He was in love with Rosalie and she was completely oblivious to it.
