Hey guys! Sorry for the long wait, Nia and I have been quite busy. But fear not! We have a chapter for you guys! We hope you enjoy it!

Bella's P.o.v

Edward wrapped his arm around me once we were in darkness, leading me through the trees. I was, as ever, grateful to have him near – I would have fallen over a thousand times in this darkness.

Suddenly, the camp site was visible, and the roaring fire's flames were licking at the sky. Two figures were huddled in front of it, that I immediately recognized as Alice and Jasper.

"Hey, you two!" I greeted them, smiling happily with Edward's declaration still echoing throughout my ears.

"Hey," Alice mumbled, snuggled up under Jasper's arm.

"Where are Rose and Emmett?" Edward asked, though I was pretty sure of the answer.

"Canoodling?" I asked jokingly.

"Frankly, I have no idea." Jasper said. "I haven't seen them since they 'went off to find wood'. How those two can get jiggy in a forest, I have no idea."

I laughed. "They don't care that a squirrel could be watching, that's where the idea came from!"

"Oh my GOD." Alice said, sounding utterly terrified. "What if there are perverted squirrels watching us right now, Jazz?"

I laughed so hard that I fell off the back of the log that Alice and Jasper had strategically placed at the side of the camp fire.

Edward picked me back up, his shoulders still shaking in silent laughter – whether it was at me or Alice, I didn't know.

"There aren't going to be any perverted squirrels around here, Alice baby." Jasper consoled her, trying not to laugh. "They live in France, didn't you know?"

"Oh My God. I am never going to France!" She squealed.

"He was joking, Ali," I smiled. "Way to go, Jasper. I've always wanted to go to Paris!"

"I'll take you, beautiful. You know people say Paris is the city of love?" Edward murmured huskily in my ear.

"Uh huh..." My mind was clouded by his voice...

"Yes, so back to the topic of Em and Rose...should we go and look for them?"

"And risk stumbling across them butt naked in the moonlight? Er, no. Let's stay here." Jasper said.

"No, Jazz. I'm getting kind of worried about them..." Alice said, picking at the hem of her shirt nervously.

"Me too...what if they've gotten lost?" I asked, worry churning my stomach.

"They know this place better than us, they'll come back when they're ready." Edward assured us.

"No, they should be back by now..." I was getting seriously worried. "There are bears in the wild, wolves. What if one is gnawing on our best friends right now?"

Jasper slapped his head. "Bella, stop worrying – you're going to go prematurely gray."

"I intend to live like Peter Pan, actually Jazz." I said quite seriously. "Edward's gonna fly me to Neverland, right?"

With that, the jokes started, and our worries about Rose and Emmett faded away. I was sure they'd be back soon – it was like them to get lost in their own little world.

Rosalie's P.o.v

" Emmett, where are we going?" I groaned. We had spent the whole day walking, and my feet were killing me.

"You'll see babe, we're almost there." Emmett said, pulling me closer to him. We walked through the woods, tree branches hitting my face.

"Ouch!" I yelled. Emmett didn't reply, he just kept going. Where the hell were we going? I knew if I asked Emmett I would get the same answer that I'd been getting the whole walk. Finally, we came to a stop. It was dark out, I couldn't see.

"Where are we?" I asked. Emmett turned the flash light on, allowing me to see the scenery. A swamp. "You brought us to a swamp?" I asked in disbelief.

"Not just any swamp Rose, remember the camping trip for school?" He asked. I nodded. "When I got us lost, and we ended up in a swamp?" He said. And suddenly I recognized where we were. The swamp where Emmett and I had finally kissed. The place we realized we loved each other.

"Emmett," I breathed. "This is the sweetest thing anyone's ever done for me!" I said. Emmett chuckled softly and wrapped his arms around me.

"Anything to make you happy babe." He said before pressing his lips to mine. Our lips moved together as one. It felt the same as the first time we'd kissed, but with more passion. Our tongues moved together.

"Think we should go back to camp?" I asked against his lips.

"Not yet." Emmett replied.

"When should we go back?" I asked, I checked my watch, it was after midnight. "They might be worried about us."

"We could stay here for the night." Emmett suggested.

"No way! First of all, we don't have sleeping bags, and there's no way in hell I'm sleeping on the ground!" I started.

"You can sleep on me." Emmett said. I glared at him.

"And secondly, the guys could be worried about us being lost."

"But we aren't lost."

"They don't know that Emmett! Now I don't know about you, but I'm heading back to camp." I huffed. I started to walk away from Emmett.

"Rose wait!" Emmett shouted, I kept walking, not wanting to hear about him wanting to spend time alone in the woods. I walked, turning every now and then, trying to retrace the steps Emmett and I had taken to get there. I walked for ten minutes, when I heard footsteps behind me.

"Rose, wait!" I heard someone pant behind me. I stopped. Suddenly Emmett slammed into me.

"Emmett! Jeez can you not freakin' kill me!" I snapped.

"Rose! You shouldn't walk in the woods alone!" He told me.

"Jeez you sound like my kindergarten teacher." I said, rolling my eyes. "How long till we get to camp?" I asked him.

"How long have you been walking?" He asked me.

"About ten minutes." I told him.

"Then we should be there in about five." He told me. I started walking again, Emmett by my side. We walked for five minutes, still no sign of camp.

"Emmett, you said camp would be here. Where is it?" I asked.

"Maybe a little father." Emmett said.

"But we'd be able to see the fire. I don't see anything." I told him. Emmett took a compass out of his pocket. He lit the flash light on it. He gulped.

"Rose, we're going North." He said.

"So?"

"Camp is south." He replied.

"You're kidding me!" I groaned.

Bella's P.o.v

The sound of birds singing filled the air, buzzing from the bugs began as everything in the forest became alive. The heat from the sun hit my face. My eyes opened slowly. Trees were the only things around us, expect for our tents. I looked up, only to see Edward staring right at me.

"Morning." He said before lightly pressing his lips to mine. I felt light headed. I had to remind myself not to let Edward kiss me when I woke up, it was to much for me to handle.

"Morning." I replied. A smiled played on his lips. I looked over to the log next to us. Alice and Jasper were on the ground. Alice was sitting up a little, using the log to support her head. Jasper was nearly covering all of Alice. His head was snuggled up in Alice's chest, while his body was slumped over hers, his arm holding Alice in place as his other arm was at his side. Alice was awake as well, playing with a little piece of Jasper's hair. She looked up when she heard our voices. She smiled.

"Morning." She whispered.

"Morning." Edward and I whispered back.

"Interesting position you got there Alice." I said.

"At least we're wearing clothes, for your sake." She said, sticking her tongue out at us.

"Thank god." I muttered. Jasper moved slightly, causing Alice to wince a little, her body not strong enough to be able to take Jasper's weight.

"Jazz?" Alice whispered, moving a piece of hair from his face. Jasper groaned. "Jazz? Wake up." Alice said. Jasper's eyes opened. He looked at the scene around him, then rested his head back on Alice's chest, a goofy smile placed itself on his lips. Alice rolled her eyes and lifted his head. "Jazz, wake up! I can't feel my body anymore." She said. Jasper muttered and rolled off of Alice. Alice got up and stretched.

I looked around camp again.

Still no sign of Rosalie and Emmett. I got up from the log and check the tents. Still no sign of them.

"Guys, Emmett and Rosalie didn't come back last night." I told them.

" Oh my god! Something killed them! Maybe it was a bear! NO! It was those perverted squirrels! I told you guys we should have gone looking for them!" Alice sobbed. Jasper got up and wrapped her in a hug.

"They aren't dead Alice, they're probably just lost." Jasper reassured her.

"We should go looking for them." Edward said.

"All together." I stated. " So we don't all get lost."

"Well, let's get ready first and then go. Who knows how long it will take." Jasper said. We quickly ran towards our tents and got ready. We brought our pre-packed backpacks, the load a lot lighter since we'd left the tents and other things that weren't exactly essential at the camp site.

"Where do we go?" I asked, hoping the answer would constitute of something along the lines of north, south, east or west.

"That-a-way!" Alice pointed, marching away like a soldier. Jasper was right behind her.

I groaned. "Argh, we are so going to be forced into a bunch of scenic walks when we get back from here!"

"Yes, sorry, love. Alice has taken quite a liking to the outdoors."

"Damn pixie. I hope a perverted squirrel attacks her and she gets a phobia of the great outdoors."

Edward chuckled as we began bushwhacking.

"Okay, you can not be serious." I said, eying the muddy swamp. "That stuff is not good for your skin, and we are not jumping in the damn swamp!"

"Bell-aaa!" Alice whined. "I'm serious! Cosmo said mud baths were good for your skin, and a swamp is the epitome of muddy AND bath! It's bound to make us glow!"

She pulled off her shoes.

"No, Alice!" I protested, holding her top down. "We're meant to be looking for Rose and Emmett, not cleansing our skin!"

"We've been walking for forty minutes, Bella!" Alice groaned. "We deserve some TLC!"

"This place is only about ten minutes from camp, Alice – we just took the long way round because you wanted to avoid the squirrels." Edward sighed.

"I wanna get in the swamp!" Alice cried. "Swamp, swamp, swamp!" She chanted, like a five year old.

"Argh, get in the damn swamp then!" I cried, pushing her in...fully clothed.

"OH MY GOD, BELLA HOW COULD YOU?" Alice screamed, wiping the gooey mud from her mouth. "YOU DO KNOW THIS TOP IS RALPH LAUREN?!"

"Sorry, Alice!" I gasped. "I didn't think!"

Edward and Jasper were snickering, trying to hold in their laughter.

Alice glared at me. "You're lucky I packed another pair of shoes for you."

"Why?"

Alice's muddy paws wrapped around my ankles. "'Cause you're coming in!"

She tugged at my ankles, and I fell into the squelchy mud face first.

Edward and Jasper crowed, laughing hysterically. I wiped the mud off my face.

"EWW!" I cried. "I think I'm sinking!"

"What if there's a dead body in here?" Alice asked, quite seriously.

"Oh My God. What if someone sunk into the mud and suffocated and their body is...right next to us?"

We both started screaming.

Rosalie POV

"Emmett, I'm serious, I think I just heard Alice screaming!"

"Rose, you're imagining it...it's the hunger honey, it's getting to me too." Emmett tried to ignore the noises, but I knew I was right.

"Em, I distinctly heard Alice screaming that her top was Ralph Lauren!"

"Are you sure, honey? Can you hear her now?"

I listened. "No, nothing."

"It was probably your imagination, baby..."

"Emmett, it was not my imagination! I'm going to head towards the noise!"

I stood up from where I was nestled against a tree – ew, a tree! - and brushed myself down. My stomach was empty and that was making me cranky. I just wanted to find the guys and get back to camp!

I started walking towards where I thought they would be, and Emmett followed.

"Awh, baby... I know you're hungry, but can't we just stay here? We might get even more lost or something..."

I continued walking. Emmett followed grudgingly.

"Ooh! Berries! Do you think we can eat them?" He asked hopefully.

"Nuh uh Em, those're poisonous."

Suddenly, two piercing screams echoed in the air.

"Bella! Alice!" I began running. The screams sounded very close – they were still screaming. I didn't even care about the branches that were hitting me, cutting into my skin.

Suddenly, the screams cut off, and there was a loud roar.

"Oh!" Emmett shouted. "It's a bear! A bear got Bella and Alice!"

We ran faster and faster, my lungs ready to burst and my skin stinging. And then, we reached the swamp we'd visited the night before.

And there stood Alice and Bella, covered in mud, and Edward and Jasper doubled up, roaring with laughter.

"What the hell!?" I shouted.
