Chapter 4: Sunny Days and Head Injuries
Jenna leaned up against the door. A huge goofey grin on her face as she sighed. "So a good date then?" Charlie asked looking at her from his chair in front of the TV. Jenna jumped and tripped over her bag landing hard on the ground. Damn it. Where's Emmett where you need him? And of course, her wonderful father laughed at her. Jenna groaned and sat up, standing up she picked up her bags and walked towards the stairs. "Uhuh missy get down here and tell me all about it!" Charlie told her. "Do you really want to hear about my date dad?" Jenna questioned, he made a face. "Yes I do" He told her, she rolled her eyes holding back a laugh.
Dropping her bags by the stairs she walked over and sat on the coach. "Hey Bella do you want to hear the censored version or should I just tell you all the details later?" Jenna questioned, Charlie coughed and it made the two girls laugh. Bella came down and sat on the coach with her. "So?" Charlie pressed, "We went off roading! It was so much fun!" Jenna smiled, "Where did you go off roading?" Charlie questioned, "In the woods up the highway." She told him. He made a face at that. "What?" Jenna asked, Charlie shook his head. "There's just been some campers that have gone missing so I'd appreciate it if you staid out of the woods." Charlie told the two girls. They nodded, "So he walked you to the door?" Charlie asked and she nodded. "Yes helped me out of the jeep and walked me up to the door." She told him. "Are you going out again?" Charlie asked her.
"I don't know. Him and his family are going camping for the next couple days." She told him, Bella made a face at that and Jenna nudged her. Bella shook her head, Jenna would have to ask her about that later. "So did he kiss you goodnight?" He questioned, his eyes flicking to his gun. Jenna laughed, "Do you really want to know?" Jenna questioned him and he made a face. "All right no more dates on weeknights! If he wants to see you he can come here and hang out here. Only dates on the weekends and you have to be home by seven." Charlie told her. "Dad! Seven? Come on midnight!" Jenna told him, "No" He told her, "Then what about ten?" She questioned, he shook his head again.
"Dad! Come on please!" Jenna begged, he groaned. "nine thirty and that's it" He told her. She groaned and knew that was all she was going to get. "Well goodnight dad, I'll see you in the morning" She told him taking Bella's arm and the two took off up the stairs into Jenna's room. They sprawled out on the bed. "So what was that look about?" Jenna questioned, "Nothing I was going to confront Edward tomorrow about his crappy behavior" Bella complained, Jenna giggled slightly. "Don't worry, I talked to Emmett about it and he's going to knock Edward straight like only a brother can do" Jenna laughed and Bella blushed horribly. "You talked to Emmett about it?" Bella demanded and Jenna nodded her head laughing.
"Jenna!" Bella groaned, "What? He'll knock him straight don't worry. Besides he's not going to be in school tomorrow anyway!" Jenna told her, Bella just rolled her eyes. "So did Emmett kiss you?" Bella questioned. Jenna blushed and nodded. "Twice!" Jenna blushed horribly hiding her face in her pillow. "Tongue? No tongue?" Bella teased her sister making Jenna beat red. "No tongue, but damn that boy can kiss" Jenna blushed horribly. Bella was laughing hysterically at her so Jenna pulled the pillow back and hit her with it. Thus starting an epic pillow fight that spread out over the entire upstairs.
"Girls! Go to bed!" Charlie shouted up the stairs. "Night dad!" The two girls shouted back, Jenna smirked and hit Bella hard before diving off Bella's bed and ran for her room laughing hysterically. She jumped and landed on her bed spreading out on dark blue and silver comforter. She rolled over on her back staring at the ceiling. She couldn't get Emmett off her mind but who could blame her? It was Emmett fucking Cullen! She smiled snuggling against her pillow, her tennis shoes still on, her body curling slightly around the pillow she was cuddling against. Her dark hair falling out of her pony tail and going all over the place. And surprisingly that's how she woke up. She was slightly shocked, she thought Charlie had been coming in and pulling her shoes off and tucking her in, he must have been to tired last night.
As usual Kit picked her up and the two headed to school. "So how was your date?" Kit questioned, "It was awesome!" Jenna smiled instantly cheering up from the bad thoughts she was having of not being able to see Emmett for the next couple days. "So tell me all about it!" Kit told her, by the time they got to school Jenna was telling her all about the kisses and the bad news that Emmett wasn't going to be in school.
"Don't worry these couple days will pass by quickly" Kit told her, she nodded her head. If only that were the case. The next couple days were the worst days of Jenna's life. She didn't know how much she had looked forward to seeing Emmett. She really missed him in those couple days, she was distracted in gym and in soccer practice. "Jenna! Quite thinking of your boyfriend and just kick the damn ball!" Shannon shouted at her. Jenna groaned and tried to push Emmett out of her mind. "He is not my boyfriend!" Jenna fired back, "If we lose this game Saturday because of him he won't be anything!" Shannon threatened. Jenna rolled her eyes and tried to focus on the task at hand. The next two days weren't that much better.
"Jenna! He's back!" Shannon shouted running over to their usual table outside. "Really?" Jenna asked and she nodded. "Come on" Shannon told her. Kit came running after them. The three girls just reached the parking lot when they heard the squealing tires. Their heads shot over to see Tyler's mini van spinning out of control and heading straight for Bella who was leaning against her truck. She also had looked up at the noise. "Bella!" Jenna screamed and took off running for her only for a rock hard arm to circle her waist. She struggled against it. "Bella!" Jenna screamed frantically as the minivan connected with the truck. Once it all stopped moving the arm let her go and she took off for it. She jumped over the hood of the minivan sliding across it and slid down between the minivan and the truck only to be shocked that Edward was there.
"Are you guys okay? Bella?" Jenna demanded running her hands over Bella's face and hair assuring herself that Bella was okay. "What are you doing here?" Bella asked looking at Edward. "Bella I was right next to you" Edward told her. "No you weren't" Jenna and Bella both told him at the same time. He gave them a look. "Yes I was" Edward told her, "She just hit her head" Edward said gesturing to the small cut on Bella's head. "She may have but I didn't. You were by your car with the others" Jenna told him helping Bella stand up. Soon other students were surrounding them. Kit on her phone calling 911. "I'm so not going in that ambulance" Bella said completely mortified at all the attention she was getting.
Jenna smiled, "Yes you are" And with Edward's help they wrestled her onto a stretcher and into the back of an ambulance. Edward riding up front and Jenna in the back holding Bella's hand. "Jenna I'm fine!" Bella whined. "Yeah well you can wait and have a doctor tell you that!" Jenna told her, her mind completely racing at her sister possibly being injured. Reaching the hospital Jenna refused to stay away from Bella, which caused a few fights with some nurses till Edward stepped in and persuaded them. Jenna stood next to the bed keeping Bella on the hospital bed.
Not long after they got there did Charlie come rushing in, then a very handsome, young Dr. Carlisle Cullen. Both girls just blinked not sure what to say. Carlisle smiled at their slightly shocked expressions. "Well it's about time I get to meet you ladies" Carlisle smiled extending his hand. The two girls smiled and blushed and shook his hand. Carlisle then looked over Bella and said she'd be just fine. "Hopefully the next time we meet will be under better circumstances." Carlisle told the girls and they agreed. The girls exchanging smiles when he left. "Damn all of them look good" Jenna muttered to Bella making her smile. "Uh you might want to call your mother" Charlie told Bella.
"What?" Bella and Jenna both demanded, "She's going to flip!" Jenna told him. "Oh great" Bella groaned pulling her phone out, as they walked out the mail ER towards the waiting room. Charlie went to sign some paperwork while the two girls avoided the crowd in the waiting room. "Here give me your keys I'll go get your truck" Jenna told her, Bella nodded handing her the keys. Jenna turned to walk away but paused as she looked down the hallway. Rosalie, Edward and Emmett were all going at it while Carlisle mediated. "Bella!" Jenna whispered. Smacking her hand frantically at Bella to get her attention. Bella hand up on the phone and skulked over to her. The two girls watching the argument.
"This affects all of us!" Rosalie growled, "You're just pissed because we're not interested in you" Emmett growled back at her. "Guys" Carlisle said his eyes landing on Bella and Jenna. They blushed and straightened up trying to play off the whole getting caught ease dropping. Rosalie glared daggers at them, Edward had his haunted expression while Emmett smiled widely at Jenna making her blush harder at him. "Rosalie" Carlisle said putting his hand on Rosalie's lower back leading her down the hall. Emmett and Edward walked over to them.
"How's your head?" Emmett asked Bella a smile playing on his lips. Jenna giggled slightly at his joke and nudged him with her elbow. "It's fine," Bella said her eyes on Edward. "Um mind walking me to Kit's car? I have to pick up Bella's truck" Jenna asked Emmett. "I'll do you one better and drive you there myself" He told her, "Seriously?" She asked and he nodded. "Yah another death drive in your jeep" Jenna laughed, "Don't forget Bella, Charlie's taking you home" Jenna told her, Bella nodded. Emmett put his hand on the small of Jenna's back and led her towards the waiting room.
"So I guess Rosalie doesn't like Bella and I much huh?" Jenna questioned, Emmett smiled. "Just ignore her. We all do" Emmett told her, she nodded her head but couldn't get past the death glares that Rosalie always gave her. They walked through the doors and Jenna was immediately hounded on for questions. "She's fine!" Jenna told all of them before Kit jumped on her. "Are you okay? Thank God Emmett grabbed you or you would have been hit by that minivan too!" Kit squealed hugging Jenna tightly. "Calm down, I'm just fine. Bella's just fine. Dad's going to drive her home." Jenna told her. "Okay do you need a ride back to school?" Kit asked her, "No I'm taking her" Emmett told her. Kit looked up at Emmett as if just seeing him. A blush crossing her face, a coy smile on her lips as she playfully nudged Jenna. "Oh well go have your fun" Kit smiled, Jenna rolled her eyes. "Don't worry, I have to drop the truck back off at my house then I'll be back at school." Jenna told her, Kit nodded before the crowd parted for them. All thanks to Emmett's tall frame.
Hell he stood over her easily. He was six foot five while she was only five foot seven. He towered over everyone. Maybe that's why he was so intimidating. "Jenna!" Danny shouted running up to her. "Is your sister all right?" Danny asked, Edmund tensed next to her, a low growl emitting from his throat. Jenna smiled softly up at Emmett. "She's fine," Jenna told him coldly turning to walk out the doors only for Danny to stand in the way. "You know if you need anyone to talk too…." Danny started but Jenna cut him off. "I have Emmett. I know" Jenna told him wrapping her arm around Emmett's waist the two quickly leaving through the door. Danny glared daggers behind them. "What is he your boyfriend now?" Danny shouted at her. "It's none of your business!" Jenna shouted back at him the two walking towards his white jeep.
Jenna climbed in and waited for him to climb in and start the engine. "So how did your brother get to Bella so fast?" Jenna questioned her eyes watching Emmett carefully. He glanced over at her. "He was standing right next to her." He told her, "Don't lie to me Emmett" Jenna told him. "I'm not" He told her, "Yes you are" She told him. He sighed the jeep flying down the highway. "Emmett" Jenna said softly, she wasn't sure if he was going to hear her. Her hand resting on his stone cold arm, squeezing it lightly. "Whatever it is you can tell me" She told him, he shook his head. "Not this" He told her. She sighed as they parking in the parking lot. "Don't worry about following me. I'll catch a ride from Charlie" Jenna told him opening her door. Emmett caught her arm. "Jenna" Emmett told her, she turned on him. Hurt written all over her face.
"We can't have a relationship without trust Emmett. When you're ready to trust me you know where to find me." She told him getting out of the jeep and climbing into the old red beat up pick up truck. She didn't wave goodbye to Emmett. Some was she was made at him. Two she was to embarrassed to, she told him she wanted a relationship with him. How stupid was she? He was the hottest guy in school of course he would want a relationship with one of those cheerleader types. She drove down the highway, the truck threatening to explode if she pushed the speed to bad. Reaching her house she saw Charlie was already there. She parked and walking inside. Bella was hiding in her room. "Dad? Will you drop me off at school?" Jenna asked him. "Just take the day off Jenna. Look after Bella for me. I've already cleared it with the school and your team." Charlie told her. Jenna sighed but nodded. At least she wouldn't have to face Emmett in gym class.
