Hey guys! Thanks for the lovely reviews (debcripps, totaltwilightaddicto, holliewooddream1, we.cloned.edward.cullen., Emmettismybabii4eva, and briiittx xhc) and, as promised, I give you the next chapter!!

Recap: Edward and Bella decide they're going to get it on in Emmett and Rosalie's bedroom, and then…

"WHOA BABY!"

I looked up over Edward's shoulder, not quite out of my trance. My eyes widened at the sight of Emmett, his own eyes bulging, in the doorway. He had flipped on the light-switch and was now taking in Edward's half-off pants and my utter nakedness. The towel had slinked down over my hips, and my arms were wrapped around Edward's neck.

"Well… that is something I did NOT need to see, Edward!" Emmett half-yelled, half-guffawed. No doubt everyone in the world but Emmett would be rendered speechless in a situation like this.

A growl ripped through Edward's chest as he carefully re-fastened his belt and I made a frantic attempt to hide behind some pillows, throwing the towel around my middle.

"Relax, my brudda. I won't disturb you anymore. Congrats, by the way. My little Eddie has finally found the joy of sex!" He crept cautiously further into the room to toss who-knows-what into his closet. It looked like something leather, but I couldn't say so for sure.

"We didn't actually get to that part, Emmett," I mumbled angrily, "Thanks to you."

Emmett stared at us blankly for a moment, and then shock flickered across his face. He suddenly burst out laughing.

"Oh, Edward, fate just doesn't want you to have a good life, does it?" Emmett asked, slapping his thigh in hysterics.

"Get. Out. Of. Here." Edward said through clenched teeth.

"Alright, alright, sheesh. I'll just let you two continue…" he said, and made a show of tiptoeing back to the door. When I thought he was finally gone, Emmett took me surprise once again and stuck his head around the door. "Hey… uhhh… Edward… would you mind if Rosalie and I took your room, seeing as ours is… erm… occupied?" he inquired shamelessly, a smile twitching around his lips.

"GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE, EMMETT!" Edward roared, throwing a pillow at the door. I could still hear Emmett's snickering in the hallway moments later.

Edward turned back to me, a million apologies in his eyes, but I couldn't help it- I began sobbing.

"Oh, Bella, my love. Please, there is nothing to cry about." Oh but, there was!

"I am so sorry, Edward," I choked out, and gathered more pillows around me as if covering my body would cover the evidence that I had almost had sex with my fiancée.

"Sorry, my darling?" Edward asked, "for what?"

"For… for putting y-y-you in a situation like this!" I wailed.

"Bella, you have no reason to be sorry. You were no where near danger the whole time, my sweet. I was in total control of my thirst when I saw you in… that way," he said, cradling my head in his lap.

"No… no, that's not it. Of course you were in control. But… I can't believe that Emmett caught us! I never should have made you do this for me!" I buried my face in my hands as Edward stroked my hair comfortingly.

"You are utterly absurd, my Bella!" Edward cried, "It's not your fault that I must now face an eternity of Emmett's teasing. And-" he cupped and lifted my chin- "I did not decide to do this because you 'made' me. I desire it just as much as you do."

"I find that very hard to believe," I mumbled into his chest.

"Oh, Bell-"

"OHMYGOSH!" In a blur of movement, a pixie-like vampire was perched on the edge of the bed, "I am SO sorry!"

"Alice!" I groaned, "I'm practically naked!" She ignored me and flounced over to dry my tears.

"I didn't see to stop Emmett until it was too late-- oh, I am sooo sorry," Alice howled, close to tears herself. That is, if vampires could cry.

Edward looked at us, his expression a combination of amusement, anger, and pity. "My goodness, you two! Why is everyone in this house so emotional?"

"Tell me about it," someone said from the direction of the doorway. I peeked over Alice's drooping form and saw an exasperated-looking Jasper. I shrieked and buried myself further in the pillows, trying to cover my bare skin.

"Bella, if you become any more embarrassed, you are going to explode," Jasper said, gliding smoothly over to the bed. I felt my cheeks burn harder, despite Jasper's warning.

"Emmett is downstairs make extreme fun of you, by the way," Jasper informed his brother.

"Ahhh… just super," Edward sighed sarcastically, hopping off the bed in one smooth movement. I immediately missed the feeling of his hand in mine.

"Oh… and… Bella?" he stopped near the doorway, "You might want to make yourself decent. I'll meet you downstairs," I felt my face get impossibly hotter as I ducked into an oddly shaped pillow. Could this get any worse?

Oh, yes, Bella! Things could get much, much worse! When your fate is in my hands, I don't pause to ruin your life!! BWAHAHAHA!

Well, I hope you all liked it. I am going on an epic back-to-school shopping trip today so updates will have to wait until tomorrow. Sorry.

Review and tell me what you want to happen!! Thanks Twilighters, I love you!!
