Immortal Loves

Chapter 4
Lets Start:
Bella's POV:
I looked down at the number I had clutched in my hand. It was Emmett's number. For some reason I blamed him for my night. He is the one that got me drunk last night. Now I was regretting it the only problem with that was that I didn't want to be upset with him and he was probably expecting the call from me. I sighed softly and dialed his number the put the phone to my ears.
"Hello?" I recognized his deep voice he didn't sound like he was hung over. He actually sounded like he was in a crowded place.
"Hey, it's Bella. From last night." I said chewing on my lip. "I just wanted to let you know if you gave me your number because you think that I usually act like that. Then you probably wont want me calling you again.." I had laughed lightly to myself. "I guess that getting me drunk last night worked out for you. I don't remember it that well. I'm not liking the outcome."
"No I didn't give you my number for that reason.." He sounded like he was grinning through the phone. "Edward kind of told me that you were with a guy. I'm sorry about last night."
"That's okay." No It's not. Now I'm a mess. "I'm not with that guy anymore either." I sighed softly.
"I was thinking that we could hang out then?" He had asked.
"Sober?" I asked with a smile.
"Even as friends if you would like." He had agreed.
"That sounds nice." I said running my fingers through my hair. "I think that I should get going now."
"I will talk to you later than Bella." Emmett said softly.
"Bye." I said hanging up then setting my phone on the coffee table and lying down on the couch in the blankets I had, it wasn't very long after I had closed my eyes that I heard footsteps coming down the stairs then over to the couch. I looked up to meet Renesmee's large brown eyes.
"Are you better now mommy?" Renesmee said surprising me.
"What do you mean love?" I asked sitting up lightly.
"You acted a bit strange last night," She hinted and I nodded. "I know. I'm sorry," I said kissing her head. When I heard the doorbell ring I stood up opening the door for Edward he came in and gave me a sad smile.
"I'm sorry." Edward had said coming in and closing the door for me. I had sat down on the couch next to Renesmee who had ran to greet her father with a smile.
"Why are you saying sorry to mommy daddy?" She asked raising an eyebrow slightly.
"Um.. John isn't staying with us anymore Renesmee." I said watching him as he picked her up.
"Why not?" She asked confused looking over her shoulder at me now.
"We got into an argument. I don't want to talk about it." I sighed softly and put my hand to my temple. Edward set her down and she moved to the couch grabbing the remote and turning on the T.V to a show that she usually watched on Saturday mornings. Then Edward went off into the kitchen so I had followed.
"We need to talk." I said looking at him. He was making coffee. I frowned softly, I hate coffee.
"About what?" He said turning to look at me now.
"What was going on with you before?" I said frowning softly.
"What do you mean?" He asked raising an eyebrow confused.
"Before you acted all. I don't know attached. You seem fine now." I said folding my arms over my chest.
He seemed to be thinking because he had went back to making his coffee then went to a cabinet getting a coffee mug and pouring it in the mug.
"I think that I just missed you and the kids." He said not making eye contact with me anymore. "I got out of hand I guess. When you really want something you aren't just going to give up on everything are you?" He asked me. "No I feel better about everything because well there isn't another man in your life is there." He had turned away as I had started to begin to see a grin on his face then he handed me the coffee mug.
"No thank you." I said softly.
"It's going to help you out with the head ache, just trust me." He said offering it again this time I took it taking a sip. It wasn't as bad as I used to remember it but it wasn't that great either. "You don't have any extra feeling for Emmett do you?" He joked. "I don't think that I could let that happen. I couldn't take that."
"He got me drunk last night and that pretty much took over. I don't know why I kissed either of you." I said with a small smile.
"Well you seemed to like it when you were drunk. It can't be that much different sober." He said with a small smirk.
"Edward, we aren't ever getting back together you know that right." I looked down and he wasn't looking at me anymore either.
"Why don't you want to give me another chance. We are more mature now. We are actually ready to raise a family now." He said frowning lightly.
"You were the one who wasn't mature Edward. I was ready. I had to be ready because you weren't and I was so scared. You didn't seem to care about anything then. We are just now getting better with the newly split. We were just too young and we can't take it back. I don't want to risk a repeat." He chewed on my lip lightly setting the mug in my hands down. "I care Edward I do but I am thinking about the kids too."
"You aren't if you were then you would want a family again." He insisted.
"No they just get confused and sad when we fight. If we split again. I don't think they would be able to deal with it. I barely could." I said softly.
He wouldn't look at me anymore. Why were we always doing this. "I'm going to go see EJ then I'm leaving." He said walking past me then up the stairs after little while he came downstairs and said his goodbyes to Renesmee.
When he left she looked at me confused. "Why does he always leave so early?"
"It's my fault." I bit my lip and sat down holding her. "Renesmee I promise that I will make things better for you honey. You will live a much better life than just this. You will happy."
"I am happy mommy." She said looking up at me.
"You just think that you are. You haven't any better. There is Better. There is always better and there is always worse." I said into her hair.
Later on that night I had dropped the kids off to Charlie's house he had been asking to see them a lot more lately. I smiled as I had greeted him at his door and said goodbye to the kids. When I pulled up to the store I went inside getting a basket and going through aisles that we needed things from I had stopped when I saw Emmett.
He was wearing a muscle shirt and looked as if he had just finished working out. I blushed softly when he looked up and saw me looking at him. He had waved lightly before walking over I smiled softly.
"Well It's a surprise seeing you again." I said laughing lightly.
"Yeah it kind of is." He said grinning lightly. For the first time I had looked at Emmett and found myself truly attracted to him. It was strange he wasn't really my type or anything.
