(Charlie's POV)
"The only thing is that you would have to fly back with me so we can shoot next week." He adds.
"Emmett like I said I really don't have the money to-"
"And like I said let me worry about money." He grins bumping my shoulder, his warm blue eyes shining in the dim light.
"Ok but where will I stay?" I wonder.
"With me of course I mean after all I've asked you to come so of you decide to you're doing me a favor." He explains.
"Are you sure that you won't feel like I'm invading your space?"
"No, living by myself can be lonely I think it would be nice to have you there."
"Ok." I agree.
"Ok?" The surprise is evident on his face.
"Yep I'll come home with you."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" He kisses my entire face as I giggle wildly.
"Ok enough, next question, who was your first?" I ask corking an eyebrow at him.
"Well believe it or not it was actually that girl from the super market. Her name is Jessica we went to high school together, anyway I was 16 and I took her to junior prom. Afterwards we went back to her parents' house, because they were gone for the weekend and then bam."
"Bam? That good huh?" I laugh.
"Hardly." He deadpans. "Your turn baby." He reminds me taking a sip of the beer I'd set out for him.
"Sam, he was my first, first everything really, first kiss, first love, first heart break."
"Before you say anything else I just want you to know I intend to be your last." Emmett informs.
"You don't mean that." I brush him off.
"Why not?" He cocks his head to the side, his dark full eyebrows pulling together adorably.
"There's just a lot of stuff you don't know about me."
"So tell me."
"I go to therapy once a week because I have a lot of issues, because of my parents' divorce I don't know if I'll ever get married. I've tried every diet at least once but I just can't stick to any of them because I am a big girl and I LOVE food!" I snap at him unsure as to why I'm suddenly so angry. To my surprise he doesn't even mind my outburst, leaning ever closer and presses his lips to mine tenderly.
"I like you Charlie; nothing you just told me has changed that. I'm more than happy to do what I can to make you comfortable. There are plenty of great therapists in L.A. so when you finally move in with me you'll be able to keep up with your sessions. As for your parents' divorce not all marriages end like that. Lastly I'm really glad you eat like an actual person and not a bird but if you're really uncomfortable with your weight I will get my trainer to design an exercise plan for you. But for the record I think you're beautiful just like this."
I move tentatively closer to him before crawling into his lap, his strong arms envelope me in a warm embrace.
"Aren't you going to ask about my quirks?" He whispers into my hair.
"Only if you want to share."
"Well I work around 80 hours a week, I smoke a pack on a good day sometimes two on a bad one. Having so many siblings and being the oldest I was on my own a lot, so although I'm independent I still crave attention from others that I didn't get growing up. I'm also a huge control freak and I tend to get very nervous when things don't go as planned."
"Wow you smoke even more than I do." I tease.
"So do you still like me?"
"Yes dimples I still like you." I smile.
(Emmett's POV)
After having sex on the table, kitchen counter and shower we finally retire to her bed, clean and completely sated.
"Hmmm, you can stay if you want." She yawns placing her iPhone on the dose table before curling up next to me.
"What about your sister?"
"Bella is staying at Edwards's hotel room tonight."
"Well I guess we weren't the only ones getting lucky." I smirk.
"Guess not." She flips on the tv before pulling a cigarette from her pack and lighting it.
"Oh thank god." I sigh retrieving my own. I haven't had a cigarette since the drive here and that was at least six hours ago. "So I've noticed your tattoo."
"Yeah." She blushes.
"Tell me about it." I say running the tips of my fingers over the colorful tattoo on her left shoulder blade. The center piece is a heart with angel wings sprouting from either side, inside the heart is one pink foot and one blue. Over top is a halo and a date, beneath the heart in cursive lettering reads "too beautiful for earth."
"Um about three years ago I was about five months pregnant with twins… I lost them and I got this because I thought that maybe-" she pauses swallowing hard in an effort to collect herself. "Maybe it would give me some type of closure but...it never did, nothing ever did hence the therapy. That's why Sam and I broke up because he wanted to try again but I couldn't stop thinking about that night and he didn't understand."
"Do you know what caused it?" I blurt out before I can stop myself.
"No."
"I'm sorry."
"I tried you know, I ate healthy, stopped smoking, I did everything all the books said to do but it didn't matter, nothing I did mattered." It was obvious she was trying not to cry."
"If you don't ever want to try again I get it, I'm sorry that happened to you but I'm glad you shared it with me." I put out my cigarette after she does. "Enough of the heavy. Tell me what makes you happy." I brush a stray hair behind her ear.
"I really like shopping of course and carnival games, cotton candy, fried Oreos, mani pedis, um lots of other things I can't think of right now." She smiles, her brown eyes light up.
"Well I'll make sure you never go without those things again."
"As sweet as you are I can't keep my eyes open any longer so if you need anything feel free to help yourself." She says handing me the tv remote and letting her eyelids flutter closed.
"Good night baby girl."
"Good night dimples."
(Emmett's POV)
I need to get out of here before it's too late. "Oh come on Emmett we don't have to leave yet, doesn't she look so pretty, sprawled out naked for us. It would be so easy to wrap my hands around her throat and just squeeze while I fuck her sweet cunt until she's about to pass out before I let go and cum inside her." James taunts.
"You're not going to lay a finger on her." I growl as I finish buttoning my pants.
"I want her Emmett and I'll have her, once we take her home you'll be lucky to have any say in what I do to her because I'll be out there with her while you're trapped in here. Do you honestly want to keep me locked up? She'll know me eventually."
"Felix says this new medicine will help."
"That stupid shrink doesn't know anything, remember how he asked if you were abused as a child? I thought it was real funny when Dr. know it all found out that you were just born this way, a genetic deformity of your poor mommy and daddy. But I think your finest moment was when you walked in holding that mangled cat after I killed it and you had to explain to Esme how you killed her precious pussy."
"Shut up," I snarl as I turn to leave the room.
"Don't leave," Charlie croons sleepily from the bed.
"Yet let's stay," James says darkly.
"I can't." I tell her.
"Oh for god sake," He scoffs before everything shifts and I know he's in control.
