Note: Sorry, in chapter one my "underlined words for talking and signing" didn't work so yeah, just confirming that that is for talking and signing. This is obviously chapter two in my story, will Bay go into Emmett's or not? I think you know the answer! ;) Anyway, this is seriously just me getting started, but I hope you enjoy it and it's not a let down from what you expected. Give me time. ;) Please enjoy, and REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! ;)


She inhaled and got out the car quickly, not allowing herself to over think what she was doing or what this might mean tomorrow.

Now that she had stopped at the door she felt the lump in her throat even more intensely then she had in the car ride, her head still pounding and her stomach felt knotted. She rang the doorbell and waited looking off in that staring way that she classically did.

Emmett opened the door. She had mixed emotions about this, she would rather it be him then Melody to hopefully save the 20 questions but she didn't even know if she wanted to gain comfort from Emmett.
He looked at her intensely.
"Bay, are you ok?" He asked cocking his head to be able to have a clearer vision of her face.
She bit her bottom lip and looked clearly into Emmett's stark blue worrying eyes. She felt her eyes filling up and she knew that she couldn't contain her emotions.
"I just need you right now" She signed, glad she didn't have to talk because she knew that her voice would crack. It was true, she did need Emmett right now, but she knew she was headed into dangerous territory, she didn't want to lead him on or make him feel like this meant that she wanted to be with him again. But she just needed him now like she had him once before.
Emmett moved closer to her minimising the gap between the two of them and wrapped his long arms around her shoulders. Bay collapsed into him folding her arms into his toned chest clenching his t-shirt with her skinny fingers not wanting to let go. Her face rested on his chest, her tears wetting his shirt. This is the closest she had been to Emmett since that night at prom, she tingled at the closeness, he smelt the same as he always did and she could feel his muscles pressing tightly against limp body, the only thing keeping her vertically upright. She inhaled and exhaled this time letting go of so much built up tension. Emmett squeezed her tighter and rested his clenched jaw on the top of her head.

After what felt like hours Emmett released his grip on bay and she unclenched her fingers from his now crinkled shirt.
"Come on" Signed Emmett gesturing his hand out for Bay to take it. He couldn't stand to see her like this, all red eyed and defeated. It wasn't the Bay he knew and loved.
Bay was surprised that she could stand without Emmett's support and that her legs didn't give out on her. She took the opportunity quickly and grabbed Emmett's hand, not wanting her legs to change their minds. She placed her hand in his and his big hand cradled hers tightly and he led her to his room.
"I'm sure you don't want my mum to know you're here" Signed Emmett, giving reason to why he had brought Bay into his room.
"Thanks" said Bay quietly but clearly allowing Emmett to be able to read her lips.
Bay sat down on the end of his bed, she didn't want to push her luck with her legs, she knew they weren't reliable right now. Her body was slouched and she was more defeated than Emmett had seen her to be.

"Want to talk?" He asked only now realising that it had been months since Bay was in his room and all the pictures of her were still up.

"You were right" Signed Bay holding back tears. Emmett looked confused.

"About Noah" She signed. "You were right it did mean more to him. Of course it did, how could I be so stupid to think that he could like me and want to be with me. No one wants to be with me, I'm that boring, the one that isn't ever enough for anyone. Not my parents, not Daphne. Not even you. I'm never good enough. What did I do, I don't know what I did, everything is falling apart and I don't know what I'm doing or what I can do to fix it"
Bay was ranting her hands being used to clench the sides of her hair adding to her near panic attack. She was so overwhelmed with emotions that she had forgotten to sign. The lump in her throat was back and she was trying to fight away the tears. Her body was betraying her; she hated breaking down like this.

Despite the lack of signing Emmett has understood most of what she had said, he knew that it was all about Noah and her not being enough. He hated himself for putting that thought into her mind. It stung when she had said "not even you". He knew he deserved it. On a normal day he would fight her on it and tell her she was enough, but he knew that that wasn't what she needed right now.
He sat down beside her and put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his chest.

"I didn't want to be right" he signed with his one free hand in front of both of them.
Bay lifted her hand to her head creating the sign, "I know" in reply to Emmett. Although she knew he wanted to be with her like they had been together before she knew that he actually didn't want to be right about Noah and Daphne. She knew that Emmett wasn't the kind of guy that wanted to see others get hurt for him to get what he wanted.

Emmett cradled bay, her face falling more into Emmett's chest and her body being held more and more by Emmett as she let her brain turn off and the comfort of him being there take over.

Not long after Bay was asleep. Emmett kissed the top of her head subtly not wanting to wake her for the fact that he wanted her to sleep and because he knew that she would be mad if she knew he had kissed the top of her head.
He kicked his shoes off and pulled himself back with one arm keeping his left arm still around Bay's tiny waist. He did his best to pull her back with him gently as to not to wake her.

She rallied slightly and Emmett was sure he felt her breathe in deeply but by the time he had managed to get them to the head of the bed she was still asleep.
He looked down at the defeated Bay in his arms. This was not like her, she was such a strong person and she had been through so much. He hated that he had added to her list of things she had to go through and that he wasn't there for her like he should have been. Emmett reached to her face and tucked two brown curls behind her ear away from her eyes. He rubbed the side of her cheek and chin with his thumb looking at her alabaster skin and realising how fragile she was.


Hope you guys liked it! There will be more again very soon! :) Thanks for reading! xxxx
