Emmett's house was nice, though much smaller then ours. The first room was the living room; there was a tan couch, a small table, and a flat screen TV. He kept walking past the living room and through a doorway, I fallowed close behind. We had entered the kitchen, it wasn't small but it wasn't as big as ours. The table was pushed against a wall and had four chairs surrounding it, there were two more chairs at an island in the middle of the kitchen.
"Do you want something to drink?" Emmett asked.
"Umm…water." I said.
"Okay one sec." he grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and handed it to me. "I'm gonna go up to my room and change I'll be back down in a minute." Emmett left me sitting in the kitchen, a moment later my phone buzzed.
It might be a little bit before we get home….Ali has found the only open clothing store and just had to get something -Ed-
Okay well I'm sitting in Emmett and Bella's kitchen waiting for you -Rose-
Emmett soon returned in sweats and shirtless, he was truly amazing, he's arms were muscular but not huge and his abs were very defined. I turned my attention to my water to keep from staring at him.
"Edward said it may be a little while before they get here, Alice has a small shopping addiction, so she couldn't leave Seattle without stopping by a store.' I gave a small laugh.
"Okay well we can go sit in the living room, find something on TV." Emmett said. I walked into the living room and he fallowed me, I sat down on the couch and Emmett sat close to me. We were almost touching, and I had the urge to grab his hand. We sat there for awhile unmoving, neither of us talking. Until Emmett broke the silence once again.
"Rosalie…"he said turning to face.
"Yeah." I looked over at him and he did the unexpected. Emmett put his hand under my chin, pulling my face to his, and he kissed. I kissed him back wrapping my arms around his neck.
"Sorry about that." he said pulling away. "I just didn't want you to leave and meet someone else as soon as walk out the door, and not even be able to say I tried."
"Don't apologize I was kind of hoping you would kiss me." I looked at him seeing a smile cross his face.
"Rosalie would you like to go out sometime, like to a movie our something?" he asked.
"Yeah, I would." I smiled and he kissed me again. This time he didn't pull away until someone came through the door.
"Okay, well that's not what I was expecting but okay." Bella said walking in. "Rose your brothers and sister are outside waiting."
"Okay thanks Bella." I got up from my seat Emmett holding onto my hand. I looked over at him and he stood up and hugged me.
"Bye Rosalie." he kissed my forehead.
"Bye Emmett." I walked out and got in the car.
It didn't really hit me till I was in bed what had happened, and the more I thought about what had happened the more doubt I had. Emmett would leave, he won't stay, no ever does. Who would want to stay with a worthless orphan like me, I wouldn't. I began to cry then I went into a full blown panic attack, which often accrued when I had thoughts like these.
Jaspers came running into my room sitting down on the bed and whopping his arms around me. Jasper always seemed to know how I was feeling, even when we were younger. Every time I would cry or get upset he would come running.
"Rosie, is this about Emmett?" I wasn't surprised he knew….Jazzy always knew what was going on. "Rose this is exactly what you need, this will be good for, help you. Don't shut him out just because you think he's gonna leave, give him chance Rosie."
"I want to Jazzy I really do but every time I think about letting someone new in all I see is them leaving….and I just can't take that anymore." I looked into the darkness.
"Rose I don't see Emmett leaving anytime soon, I just got this feeling when he looked at you that he really likes you Rose. Please just try Rose, if for no other reason then to help yourself."
"Okay Jazzy," he hugged me then went back to his room. I feel asleep quickly careful not to let those scary thoughts fell my head.
"ROSALIE WAKE UP!" I woke to a small pixie like girl jumping on my bed.
"Alice get the hell away from me." I said throwing a pillow at her, she fell backwards with a plop. "What do you want you demonic pixie."
"That's not nice Rose." Jasper said walking into my room and sitting on my bed.
"Let her come and jump on you when your trying to sleep and we'll see how happy you are ." I told him.
"Don't worry Rose I woke him up too, now lets get on the subject of why I woke you up. We are going to go hiking with our new friends Emmett and Bella today." Ali smiled.
"And when was this decided Alice." I asked.
"I did this morning." I frowned at her." Oh come on Rosalie just get up, put on one of the many hiking outfits I've found for you and meet us downstairs in half an hour." Alice and Jasper walked out of my room hand in hand.
I got up out of bed and walked over to my closet, which was full of cloths Alice had bought on her many shopping trips. I dug through the massive amount of cloths until I found long sleeve shirt, and some old faded and ripped blue jean. Once I was dressed I pulled my hair back in a ponytail and put on my hiking boots. When I got downstairs Edward and Jasper were already waiting.
"Good morning Rosalie." Esme said steping out of the kitchen.
"Morning mom," I looked over at my brother, " how is Alice gonna wake me up and then take longer then me to get ready." I said.
"Oh chill Rosalie, I'm right here, now lets go." We hugged Esme good-bye then headed out to the garage.
"Alice how do you plan on getting us all to this hiking trail? The trucks the only car we have made for driving like that and we can't all fit in it." Edward looked at her.
"Which is why you will drive Jazz's truck, and Rose Jasper ,and I will take Rose's car." Alice smiled. "Then when wee get to Emmett and Bella's, she can ride with you and we'll all ride with Emmett."
"Okay sis if you say so." We all headed to the cars, me driving today because I trusted no one with my car, not even my own twin. My shiny red BMW was a gift from Carlisle and Esme and it was very special to me.
It wasn't until I turned the car on and looked at the dash that I realized what time it was. That damn little pixie had got me out of bed before nine on a weekend. I was gonna kick her ass laterif this hike wasn't worth it. Jasper and Alice sat in the backseat and whispered the whole way, annoying the crap outta me.
"Okay you tow it's to damn early for all your mushy gushy we're in love crap, okay? So lets keep the whispering to a minimum." I said.
"Oh no, Rose is in one of her moods again." Alice giggled. "Today may not have been a good idea "
"Don't worry Ali, Rosie will be on her best behavior." Jasper told her. "Right Rosalie?"
"I'm not making any promises." I smiled.
We pulled up at Emmett's moments later with Edward right behind us. Bella was sitting outside on the porch waiting for us, when Edward got out she ran over to hug him.
"Rose, Emmett is waiting inside if you wanna go get him, I think he's in his room. It's upstairs the first door on the right." Bella said turning to look at me.
"Okay." I began walking for the door, I could feel Jasper watching me mentally urging me on telling me that it would all be okay. The house was quite and it seemed larger then it had last night. I walked up the steps, and too his room, the door was open and I could see him laid out across the bed
"Hey." I said stepping into the room, he sat up turned to face me and smiled. I took a few more steps into the room before he met me with a hug.
"So worth getting up this early." Emmett said making me giggle.
"Everyone's waiting downstairs." I told him. He took my hand and held it up to his lips and kissed it.
"Alright let's go." We walked down and I prepared myself for the long hike ahead.
