Chapter 2: To My Little Emmett

Rosalie's POV

"Well what are we going to do?" asked Jasper.

Emmett was asleep upstairs. My little angel.

"We are not sending him away!" I demanded. "He needs me, and I need him."

"Well what can we do? If we tell him what we are, the Volturi will come! And then what Rosalie? He'll die! Nobody wants that!" said Edward with his arm around Bella.

"I can't let anything happen to him," I said looking down. "He makes me so happy."

Esme came and wrapped her arms around me. "Edward! Please! Be a little more quiet. You'll wake Emmett."

We were all silent for 2 minutes.

"We all feel that way about him Rose. I couldn't imagine our family without him." said Carlisle.

"I love him already. Although I want him to be safe. I'm not sure I can leave him now." I said. If I was human I would have cried.

"We all do." said Esme, rubbing my back soothingly.

I plonked down on the white couch lazily. I was so mad. There making me choose between his well being, and my needs.

I jumped off the couch and stomped upstairs.

I ran into my room and shut the door. I felt like a teenager again.

I ran to my bed and lay down, my head facing down. What was I going to do?

I started to dry sob into my pillow.

The thing that saddened me the most was. . . Emmett looked a lot like Vera's Henry. Another sob broke from my chest.

I heard a knock on my door. "Please. . . I don't want to speak." I knew whoever that was would hear me.

"Can I come in honey. . ." I could tell it was Esme.

I sat up and glared at the door.

"Rose. . . Please. . . See this from Edward's perspective." said Esme, rubbing my leg.

"I can't! Don't you see Esme! He seems like the only thing. . . That's important. Of course I love you all with my heart. And Edward, Bella, Jasper, Carlisle, and Alice. But he's like the child I never had. If he left. . . To go to a foster home. I don't think I could live with myself." I found it hard to stay mad when Esme was in the room. Or maybe that was Jasper.

"You know what honey. . . I feel exactly the same way. You know I do. I'll have to talk to Carlisle. I don't think I could leave him either. Every single day I see the picture in my mind of Emmett lying in that pool of blood, and I know Edward does too. Let's go down stairs and talk to Carlisle." Esme said taking my hand and leading me dowstairs.

"Carlisle?" asked Esme. "Can we speak to you. . ."

"Of course my Love," he said looking lovingly into Esme's eyes. "What is it you would like to speak of?"

"It's Emmett." I blurted out. I heard Edward growl.

I flashed him a glare. I'm sure I heard Edward mutter 'ludicrous'.

"Rose and I have been talking. We both agree that Emmett is very much part of the family now. How do you feel about adoption?" Esme asked, clearly nervous.

"If that's what you want. . ." said Carlisle.

Everybody's expressions looked surprised.

"Let me explain," said Carlisle laughing. " Emmett is a lot like the son I've always wanted. I've been thinking about it a lot. What I see in everybody's eyes is. . . love. I heard what Rose and Esme were talking about. . . And I fully agree. I'm not sure I could let him go, either."

A smile broke across my face, and I ran to Carlisle.

"Thankyou, thankyou!" I chanted, hugging Carlisle. He laughed, Edward growled, Bella was delighted, Jasper seemed smug, Alice was bouncing off the walls(literally) and Esme was over joyed, and hugging Carlisle too.

I looked over to my left and saw Jasper jumping up and down.

"What the hell Jas?" asked Edward confused.

Jasper spoke in between jumps.

"The"

"Excitement"

"Is"

"driving"

"me"

"mad!"

I giggled at him.

"What's going on?" asked a small voice. Emmett.

"Hello Emmett!" I squealed, picking him up and twirling him around.

"We didn't wake you did we?" asked Esme, with her hand over her chest.

"Eh. . . don't wowee about it." he said, rubbing his eyes.

"I've got a wonderful surprise for you! We're going to adopt you!" I said, having trouble holding in my excitement.

Emmett started clapping his hands.

"Do you know what this means?" asked Alice. We all shook our heads. Except for Edward. . . Who sighed.

"New room, new wardrobe!" squealed Alice.

Emmett sighed while in my arms.

"We can't have our little Emmett in rags!" said Alice, pouting at everyone's reaction. I laughed.

"Would you like me to come with you to the mall?" I asked.

"Of course." Alice said, matter-of-factly.

"Goodbye, my little Emmett." I said, and kissed him on the cheek.

"Bye bye Rosie!" he said, hugging me again.

Emmett's POV

Rosie and Alice had bought me new everything. Clothes, toys (in which I was fine with) and Esme and Alice have renovated a room for me. Carlisle had gone to sign paperwork about my adoptionist.. I don't know how to say it.

Esme and Alice had shooed me away when I tried to see my new things. I ran to Bella and hid behind her leg.

"Silly Emmett. What are you doing?" she asked trying to find me.

"I'm hiding from Alice and Esme. There not letting me see my new stuff."

With that she swang me up so I was above her head. "Just be patient, my little Emmett."

I loved it when any of my new family called me that. They always did.

"Ohhhh Emmmmmmmettttttt!" Of course it was Alice.

I ran from Bella up the stairs. Esme and Alice were standing outside the door.

"Presenting. . . Little Emmett's..New room!" said Alice, swinging the door open.

My eyes widened as I took in everything.

The whole room was painted sky blue, my favourite color. In the right corner near the window was a single bed. The bed spread had star wars on it.

I looked to the left and there was a dark blue wardrobe. It was huge. At the back against the wall there was a big treasure chest with all my toys. There was also a huge play area in the middle of the room, with a big blue rug.

I gasped in surprise. This is everything I've ever dreamed of.

I stalked into the room. I reminded myself of a zombie.

"No way dude!" I said spinning around to face Esme, Rose and Alice.

"You like it?" said Alice, clapping her hands together.

"Of course I do!" I said giving Alice a big hug.

I stepped around Alice to Esme, and gave her a hug.

"Rosie!" I yelped, and ran to her.

I gave her the biggest hug of all.

"My little Emmett. . ." she murmered, smelling my hair. I pulled away and smiled at her, then ran into my new room.

I ripped open the treasure chest to well. . . Treasure.

Lego, transformers, pencils, pens, action men, paper, builing blocks of every kind. Even a little brown teddy bear. It had a green ribbon around it's neck.

I couldn't read the tag, so Rosie came and read it to me: ":To My little Emmett,

I hope you like this bear. It was mine when I was a little girl. Take good care of him ok? I know you will.

Love, Rosie x"

I picked up the bear and hugged it close to me. It smelt really old.

"Thanks. . . Mommy." I said, waiting for a reaction.

"Oh Emmett…." said Rose, hugging really really tight. She is so strong.

I tried to hug her with the same strength, but failed.

She laughed. "Do you want to go downstairs? We have something important to tell you."
