Chapter 3

Bella's POV

"Well…" Emmett started," I walked in on Edward and Rosalie." He said in a rush. Thos few words cut through my heart. I suddenly felt very outraged and hurt. That's why he left me??!!! I threw a few of the things he gave me for my 18th birthday. I broke down sobbing, and Emmett hurried over and picked me up. He put me gently on the bed, but still hugged me. Emmett waited patiently for me to calm down. After a few minutes I quieted down.

"So he never even loved me?" I asked quietly. Emmett had no answer for that. I started squirming in Emmett's arms, and he let me go. Emmett being Emmett tried to lighten the mood.

"So what do you want to do now little sister?" Emmett said, smiling slightly. I ignored his question and asked my own.

"How are you dealing with this Emmett?" I waited for him to answer.

"I was shocked at first, ya know? I had never expected that. I yelled a little and then ran. Just ran. I decided to come here, because you deserved the truth." Emmett said. His eyes showed the pain that he was trying desperately to hold in.

"Thank you, Emmett. For telling me and for being here for me." I said, a tear sliding down my cheek. I quickly wiped it away.

"It's no bid deal, little sister." He said. I started thinking. What could I do to take my mind off of this? I just needed to forget. I needed to have fun with my brother and best friend, Emmett. AHA!!

"Hey Emmett, do you want to go to the movies?" I asked, faking enthusiasm. Emmett must have understood my change of mood.

"Hell Yea! Let's do this!" He bellowed. I laughed and started pushing him out the door.

"Okay, but let me get a quick shower first!!" I said. I let the hot water run over my tense muscles, but for once, it didn't relax them entirely. I put on a blue tank top, faded blue jeans with a white jacket, and sneakers. I walked downstairs without tripping, which I was thankful for. Emmett was sitting on the couch, watching a football game. I walked in and turned the T.V. off.

"Come on Emmett, we have a movie to go to." I grabbed his hand and started pulling him towards the front door. Strangely, I felt safe with Emmett, more so then Edward. It was probably because Emmett is stronger.

"Impatient, are we?" Emmett teased. I just stuck my tongue out at him, like a little kid. He laughed and I couldn't help but join in.

"It's late and we have to get there before every movie starts. I want to see Saw 5." I said.

"Saw 5 it is." Emmett replied. We ended up at the theater 5 minutes to spare. Could you guess who we met there? Our dear friends Mike and Jessica. Emmett and I tried to hide, but Mike spotted us.

"Bella!" Mike called. I grudgingly started to walk over to them, still holding Emmett's Hand. He had a goofy grin on his face, probably from seeing my reluctance to seeing Mike.

"Hey Mike, what movie are you two seeing?" I asked, silently praying that it wasn't the same one.

"We are seeing the Haunting of Molly Hartley."(A.N. I so do not know how to spell that.)"What about you?" His face was hopeful.

"We are going to see Saw 5." I replied. Now they seemed to notice Emmett.

"Are all of the Cullens here?"

"No it is just Emmett and I." I replied. I saw Jessica's eyes widen at what I said. I was wondering what she was thinking. I know one person who would know. Edward. Ouch.

"Emmett's here with you?" her voice sounded surprised. I was insulted by that. Did she think that I wasn't pretty enough the hang out with the Cullens?

"Yes what's it to you?" I asked, a little rudely. She scowled a bit, telling me that she noticed my tone of voice.

"Hey Bella. do you want to double date? We can go to the same movie." Mike offered. He thought I was dating Emmett! Can't a girl go out with her big brother? Oh well, if it keeps him from flirting with me. I leaned in to hug Emmett while whispering in his ear.

"Go along with it okay? This should be hilarious." I said. I leaned back and we grinned at each other.

"Sure Bell and I would love to join you." Emmett said. We bought 4 tickets to Saw 5. All four of us sat side by side. I was sitting next to Emmett on his left and Mike and Jessica were on his right. Emmett squeezed my hand slightly to get my attention. I looked over and he whispered something in my ear.

"Hey, why don't we give them a show?" He asked. I nodded eagerly. This should be FUNNY!!

Suddenly, Emmett pulled me onto his lap. I put my arms around his neck, and my feet locked behind his waist. I quickly glanced over at Mike, who looked like he would burst with jealousy. I angled Emmett's head so that if I kissed him on the cheek, it would look like we were making out. Emmett wrapped his big, cold arms around my shoulders. It was odd that when he stroked my cheek, it left a cold/hot trail burning after it.

Whoa. That had only happened with Edward. I ran my slender fingers slowly through his thick, brown curls. I felt his whole body shudder slightly. I looked into his golden eyes. The joking had stopped, and the air turned intense. Emmett was leaning forward, and I was too. Our lips were barely an inch away. I took a deep breath, and Emmett smelled amazing! Even better than him!

"Umm excuse me, but I am going to have to ask you to leave." I gasped as I realized what Emmett and I were about to do. I turned and saw a young theater worker. I blushed, and got off of Emmett. He had a sheepish grin on his face. When I saw that we were still holding hands, I quickly let go. As soon as were in the car, Emmett and I started laughing hysterically. Once we both calmed down, I spoke.

"Wow Em that was a good show." I said.

"Hells Yea Bella." Emmett replied. He drove me home in slience. I blushed and asked a question.

"Will you stay Emmett? Overnight at least?" I asked hopefully.

"Yea. Sure Bella." Emmett laughed. I took a shower and went back into my room. Emmett was there lying on my bed. I layed down beside him and put my head lightly on his chest.

"Goodnight Emmy." I mumbled, half-asleep.

"Goodnight Bella." I slowly drifted off to a peaceful slumber.
