A/N: Thanks to everyone who's reading. I about died when I saw how many alert lists I'm on. And favorite lists too. (: I love you. Anyway, I want to thank my dear Pixar for betaing again. As well as AnotherHPF, who helped make sure that my idea made sense before I put into onto paper. Thanks, Lovie! (Don't ask.)

HorcruxFinder wanted to see more Jacob, so…here's a bit of him. I'm not ready to reveal his secret just yet, though. But I know she'll just LOVE it. Bwahahahahaha. Anyway, here we go. Chapter three.

Disclaimer: I'm not Steph. Darn. But! Emmett's history is all in my creation. Don't hate me for it. My idea. It probably isn't true, and I don't care. But the books don't say it's not possible. So I'm running with it.

Chapter Three: Stupid Fridge…

No one answered me.

"How about Emmett?" Jacob smirked from the back row. Emmett whipped around from his seat on the first.

"Shut up, puppy!"

Jacob continued to smirk. "What's wrong, Fridge? Your secret can't be that bad."

"Fridge" was the nickname one of my friends had given Emmett in real life and I decided to allow Jacob to call him that.

Emmett looked like he was about to retaliate. I had to step in—a fight was the last thing I wanted.

"Emmett—calm down. Jake, stop provoking him. Please, for at least this once, let's all be friends." I glared at Billy with my last statement. He put his hand on his son's shoulder.

"Now," I continued. "Emmett, will you please take your turn?"

He looked at me with the saddest look imaginable. When his puppy dog eyes didn't work, he sighed and grabbed Rosalie's hand, pulling her up with him. Hand in hand, they walked to the front by me.

"Err…well…uh…" Emmett stuttered. Rose squeezed his hand.

He sighed again, closing his eyes. "In my past life…when I was human…I had a learning disability. I wasn't retarded or anything, but I was the slowest thinker around."

I felt my mouth open for the second time in less than five minutes. I had never really given Emmett's past a hard thought, but it would have never started like this.

"Kids bullied me. Called me stupid. I was the laughingstock of my school. One day, some guys tricked me into following them into the woods. They left me there, stranded and lost. That's when the grizzly attacked me, and Rose came." He smiled at her. His words had come in a rush, but he looked truly relieved to have said them.

"We don't know why I'm not stupid now and—" Emmett was interrupted by a snort from Jasper. He glared at his brother. "Just because I don't have much common sense, Jasper, doesn't mean I'm an idiot."

Emmett looked at me. "That's all."

I nodded at him. "Thank you for sharing, Emmett. Rose? Would you mind going now?"

Her beautiful gold eyes flickered for a moment. She then nodded, and tossed her blonde hair over her shoulder.

"One day, about, oh…twenty years ago, Emmett and I had a date for my birthday. When I met him at the restaurant, he arrived with a dozen roses."

I didn't see where this was going.

"Normally, that would have been great. But two days prior, I had informed him that I wanted violets for my birthday. And then what does he do? He buys me roses! Roses! I blew up at him. 'I'm sorry, love!' he said. 'I forgot!'

"He got all emotional on me. But I was so angry. It was stupid, how upset I got. I stormed out of the restaurant and drove for miles. I headed into no where, and ended up in some small town."

We were silent, listening to her story.

Rosalie continued. "I hooked up with the first human boy I saw. He was about twenty, and did everything I asked him. One night when we were…umm…" she cleared he throat and looked embarrassed. "You know. I went too far and…killed him. On accident. I was shaken so badly. I went back to the Cullens as fast as I could. We never talk about it."

She shrugged, her tale ending. I stared at her.

From the back row, Jacob whistled. "Wow."

A/N: Good?! Bad?! Tell me tell me tell me! I loved getting to write about Emmett's past. I know it's not true. But a lot of people imagine him as the dumber of the group, and what I said kinda made sense. (: But yeah. REVIEW. NOW.
