Tetherball Tournament
Chapter 2 The Game
BPOV:
It was decided. Carlisle told everyone that there would be no power usage, from anyone, and that I would sit out. There was no reason to provoke my clumsiness. I was appointed being the judge so I could sit and keep track of winners and losers. First to play was Rosalie against Alice.
Rose still looked angry about the game that her oh so smart husband wanted to play.
Alice, energetic as usual, hit first, very softly, at least for a vampire. Then Rose hit it back, nice and soft.
This continued for a few minutes till Emmett got antsy.
"Come on, baby, you can do better," he called
"Shut up Emmett" Yep, she was still mad at him.
While they were playing I was figuring out how to get everyone to play at least twice. I decided to do what they do in basketball. To have winners play winners, and losers play losers. Everyone will start out as a winner, then as someone losses a game they then play a loser who lost an earlier, or later in some cases, game.
By the time I was done, Alice was getting board, so she hit once really hard, catching Rose off guard, and it spun till the end.
"TETHER!! I Won!! I Won!!" Alice screamed.
Emmett looked at Rose with an innocent look, but he knew he was in trouble. Next was Jasper against Edward.
Jasper started, and they were not so kind with the ball. They pounded it back and forth, back and forth. This continued until I felt a wave of love, causing Edward to get distracted and Jasper to swing and win.
"Tether." Jasper said.
"That's not fair, you cheated. You distracted me, well, truly it was Bella, but you did." Edward complained. Then Edward tackled Jasper. They wrestled till Emmett finally went over to them and picked one up in each hand.
"Now, I'm gonna put you down, children, but you must promise to play nice and share your dolls, okay girls." Emmett said in a Kindergarten teacher voice.
"EMMETT!! PUT ME DOWN!! I WILL KILL YOU NOW LET GO!!" Edward yelled at him. I couldn't help but snicker.
"ENOUGH." Carlisle this time. "Jasper I had said no powers, and don't say you didn't because trust me I felt it."
" Fine" Jasper said sadly. Then I felt angry, regretful, and very depressed.
"Jasper, knock it off!!" I yelled. Everyone turned and looked at me. I could feel my blush coming.
"Sorry"
"Where did that come from?" Alice asked. All I could do was shrug my shoulders, and say that the next to play would be Carlisle against Esme.
After an uneventful game, Carlisle won, but Esme swore she would get him back. Emmett, I decided, would be excused from round one, because there were seven players.
This was going to be a long day.
