Author's note: I love all the reviews I've been getting on this story, when I started this, I had no idea so many people would like it. Thank you so much! And I'm sorry about always taking too long to update. School's been crazy lately.

They were almost done bring Bay's things into Emmett's house. One of the conditions was Bay had to sleep in the guest room, but that wasn't a big deal.

Bay set down the box she was holding, it was so different being here instead of cooped up in her art studio. But different in a good way.

Suddenly hands were covering her eyes. Carefully she peeled them off her face and found Emmett standing there smiling at her. Grinning, Bay leaned in and kissed him, pulling away right before Melody walked in.

There are still a couple boxes that need to be brought in. You two can "hang out" later. Melody still remembered when Bay had been over and still had trouble with sign language. It was sort of a joke between them, now that Bay understood what she'd been signing.

Bay blushed, and went outside to retrieve the boxes.

Mom! Emmett signed, embarrassed. That was a downside to having Bay live here. His mom walking in on them. She really had warmed up to Bay. It was just she didn't want her son to her hurt. It would kill her to see him have his heart broken, just because some hearing girl came in. She didn't want to see him struggling to make it work. But then she watched as Bay worked hard to learn sign language and everything else about him.

Bay was busy unpacking some of the boxes. There were only a handful of boxes and a couple other bags that she brought with her. It's not just she completely moved out of her house, or that she could never go back. But there were some things she felt she needed. And at least one of the boxes was entirely filled with art supplies.

A tap on her shoulder, made Bay jump, but it was just Emmett.

My mom went out for a little while. I wanted to show you something. He told her.

Flashback:

They were sitting in Bay's art studio, just the two of them, like they did most of the time. Emmett got an idea in his head. The old stereo was still sitting on the counter; Bay hadn't bothered to move it. And in side was still the tape they'd found in Emmett's garage.

When he got up, Bay turned to see what he was doing.

He ignored her, though. Just turned the stereo on and pressed play. While putting his hand on the speaker he adjusted the volume to he could feel the vibrations better, then gestured for Bay to get up and join him.

She looked at him like he was crazy, but still got up. He placed her hand on the speaker, and she was amazed at how it felt. The music flowed through her, even if she couldn't hear it anymore.

Bay's eyes were closed, if she thought hard enough, it was almost as if the music was playing.

Emmett interrupted her thoughts though, he held her hand and started moving with the beat. Leading Bay with him. Together they danced. Him twirling Bay, then just holding her close.

End flashback

Emmett took Bay into his room. The wall that had once held his Daphne shrine was now covered in pictures of Bay. In fact, the pictures moved beyond that one wall, and spread all over his room. But that wasn't why Emmett had brought Bay there. She had already seen all of that.

Emmett sat her down in front of his computer. A slideshow began to play. It was filled with picture after picture of Bay, and of Bay and Emmett, and things that reminded Emmett of Bay. He even went around and took pictures of Bay's art. The pictures varied from being candid to silly poses to one where they were kissing and Emmett had forgotten he had his camera on timer.

After a few minutes, it reached the last picture and stayed frozen on that image. The last picture had been a snapshot of Emmett's wall. It was almost like looking at the slideshow all at once.

I love you. Bay signed, before Emmett leaned in to kiss her.

They hadn't been kissing for even a minute, when the lights in Emmett's room began to flash on and off. Bay looked up and saw Melody standing there.

At first she didn't even realize she was holding her breath waiting for Melody's reaction. But Melody just shook her head and signed, Time for dinner.

Emmett and Bay just smiled to each other before they left his room, sharing one more kiss, then joined his mom in the kitchen.

Author's note: wow, that flashback was a lot longer than the other ones. But I really like this one.

Ugh, I was going to have it zoom in onto one picture for the last image, but then I got stuck again and didn't know what it would zoom in on.

If you ever have any questions just ask in a review or in the ask on my fanblog. (unless the question is "how did Bay lose her hearing?", I'm not answering that one, yet).

I love hearing your thoughts. :)
