Troublesome Threes
Ch.2- Un-sweet
Emmett's P.O.V.
I love sugar! I knew what it did to me as a human and it was like blown up ten thousand times when you're a vampire! I swear I could run around and around and around and around this house like ten billion trillion bazillion times; if that was a number. Wait, is it a number? I don't know and I really don't care right now! I love what sugar does to my brain!!!!
I was running for like thirteen minutes and then I crashed-literally. The sugary rush went away and I ran into the couch and almost fell onto Nessie. She was reading a little book so it's not like I heard her. I could have squished her! She could have died! Well she's alive now and that's all that matters!
"Uncle Emmie, are you okay?" she asked.
"Fine Nessie. Why?"
"I think you ate some chocolate again. Grandma Esme said you weren't allowed. OOOOOOOOOOO! You are going to be in trouble!" Nessie said pointing at me.
"Nessie shhhhhhhh! I didn't eat chocolate… I ate some of these!" I pulled out a stick of rock candy.
"It's so pretty! I want some! Can I have one Uncle Emmie, pleeeeasssse?" she asked with a puppy dog face.
"Sure but you can't tell anyone that I gave it to you, promise?"
"Promise." She kissed my check.
"That's my girl. Come on, I'll show you where I have it in stock." I picked her up and walked from the first floor to the attic. Thirteen glass jars were stacked together in the corner. "Do you want cherry, orange, lemon, green apple, blue raspberry, grape, watermelon, bubble gum, cotton candy, root beer, strawberry, or lime?"
"Watermelon please." She said with a smile. I opened a jar and pulled out a hot pink stick of candy. I handed it to her. "Thank you Uncle Emmie." She gave me a hug and then skipped away. Really I don't know why Bella and Edward barely give her any sugar. Once a week she gets like a fourth of a scoop of ice cream. What was the big deal anyways?
(Two hours later)
Oh my God!!!! Why did I give Renesmee sugar?! She is running around like a wild child and won't sit still. The rest of the family will be home soon. I had to hide her! I ran around the house. I couldn't find her. Then I ran into the attic and I saw her reaching for another stick of candy. "No Nessie! No more! Come on we have to hide!" I picked her up and through her over my shoulder. I could hear the tires of Edward's, Rose's, and Carlisle's car turn off the freeway and onto our driveway! Damn they were fast! I ran into my hiding spot, the coat closet, with Nessie.
"Are we playing hide and go seek?" Nessie asked me.
"Yes. So you have to be quiet." I whispered to her. She sealed her lips and then stuck another piece for rock candy into her mouth. Dang it! Now she would be high off of the sugar. I heard the door open and seven pairs of foot steps step inside. Nessie was now bouncing up and down in my lap. Tomorrow I was going to burn all the candy I had stashed around the house and throw it in the river so that all the evidence would just float away. Renesmee tapped her little feet against the wood floors. I held them still.
"Renesmee, we're home?" Bella called.
"Emmett? Nessie?" Alice said up the stairs.
"Is anybody here?" Rose asked.
"I told them to stay here!" Edward said with a growl. He was going to kill me for giving his daughter this much sugar! Nessie squirmed out of my arms and opened the door.
"Mommy? Daddy? I'm right here!" She said with a smile. Bella and Edward picked her up and kissed and hugged her.
"You can't scare us like that. Okay?" Bella said.
"Mommy! Look at what I got!" Nessie held up a stick of cherry rock candy.
"What is that?" Edward hissed.
"Rock candy! It's super duper yummy!" Nessie said.
"Nessie!" I said as I crawled out from the closet.
"What? You said I couldn't tell them you gave it to me, not what it was?" She said. "Ops."
"Emmett why did you give her sugar when we pacifically told you not to!?" Edward yelled at me. I was in trouble. Man, I'm always in trouble. Even when I was human, I was always getting into sticky situations. Or in this case, sugary situations.
"Here Edward, let me take Nessie so that you and Bella can talk with Emmett." Esme reached out and cradled Nessie in her arms. Carlisle tickled her and Esme, Nessie, Alice, Rose and Jasper all walked into the study while I got yelled into a grave. My life is sooooo un-sweet.
