I walked as stealthily as possible up the branch littered path – which was kind of hard since I'm an extremely clumsy person.
I tried to control my breathing as the adrenaline pumped through my body. I wasn't sure if the adrenaline came from fear or excitement, but I would probably say it was a mix of both.
Even though it was dark, I could see the silhouette of the person quite clearly. It was definitely a man.
Fear crept up my spine.
Calm down Bella, it's only a man. There is no way you could know if he is a murderer or a rapist or a burglar...Oh crap...
I ran a hand through my hair as I slowly followed the man.
I was always thinking of the worst possible scenarios for things that would always make me panic. Jesus, I seriously needed to get a grip on things.
Would you follow a stranger up a path into a secluded area?
I had trouble breathing.
NO!
I started to back away as the rational part of my mind began to scream.
Wait wait wait, I tried to get a grip on my paranoid head.
"There's nothing to be worried about, nothing is going to happen." I began to breathe in short bursts – you know, like how the women giving birth do.
I took one step forward when something began to vibrate against my foot.
"Damn Emmett," I sighed, hitting the 'accept' button.
"I'm here."
"Of course you are."
"Do you know the Muffin Man?"
I took the phone away from my ear and looked at it strangely before putting it against my ear again.
"Erm...what?"
"The Muffin Man."
"What about him?"
"He likes muffins."
"Why are we talking about the Muffin Man?"
"I thought I could make it into something dirty," Emmett laughed.
"Emmett?"
"Yeah, Bella Bug?"
"You're a fail."
"Get your ass in my Jeep's passenger seat right now young lady!"
I hung up, rolling my eyes.
I glanced up the path, seeing that the man had disappeared.
I'll get him next time.
I ran towards the road, getting ready to whack Emmett over the head.
What a goober.
I know, it's short -_- But this is all my failure of a brain could produce – I am seriously annoyed at myself right now.
I'm happy with this chapter, but I wish it could be longer.
There will be a long chapter next! I've decided!

Review and smile!
