I burst out of Twilight….completely forgetting about the two inch step down and I fell hard "Shit" but I refused to let any of the pain register. I shot up as fast as I could, whipping my head from left to right, seeing no sign of Bell, Edward or Emmett.
Where the hell are they?!
Ever since the day of the accident, I hated not knowing where Bella was. On that day I had thought nothing of it when she hadn't gotten home when she said she would. I figured she and Jake got a little 'distracted' so I didn't want to call and interrupt anything. If I hadn't waited so long…
"BELLA!" No response, well except a few cat calls and stare from passersby. I took my phone out to call the guys when I remember I had deleted their numbers a LONG time ago.
"Emmett goddamit where are you?!" I screamed. I headed towards the end of the block, hopping the whole way because I was taking my shoes off for two very good reasons.
So I could run all over town looking for the two jackasses who kidnapped Bella
Once I found her I would jab a stiletto into an eye of each of her captors.
I made my way across the cross walk, my eyes searching for the three of them on the darken streets. My vision was abruptly blinded. Next thing I knew the front bumper was 4 inches from me. WHAT THE-
"Goddamit!!" I yelled as I slammed my shoes on the hood of the vehicle
"Whoa, whoa stop the violence" He said with half of his body out of the window
"Emmett?!" My eyes finally adjusted, and there here was grinning like an idiot. All the anger that I had felt for him when we were in Twilight filled me again. I'm going to kill him.
"What did my brother tell you about yelling?" I would have punched him right there, but quickly snapped, remembering why we- I was there. Bella
"Where is she?" I didn't even attempt to hide the worry and fear in my voice. Emmett noticed the change in my demeanor, and the grin disappeared from his face. His body went back in to the jeep and I heard the sound of a window, on the passenger side being lowered, and ran to it.
There was Bella, still asleep in Edward's arms. I rather loud sigh, She's here, she's fine
It was heart breaking that she was able to so peaceful and so sad at the same time. I gently ran my hand along her cheek that was no longer wet with tears.
"I have her" Edward touched my hand. He had a tissue in his hand and his eyes on Bella "Sit up front"
I was about to open my mouth to protest but he best me to it
"She's safe back here with me, besides if I remember correctly you aren't capable of sitting in the back of a car." A small grin came across his face "Especially when Em drives"
Damn him. I could never-ever sit in the back seat of a car. I needed to either be driving or in shotgun. It sounds stupid, I know but I have to be upfront- it's where the action is. I very much like being in control of everything I do so having someone else drive me makes my skin crawl. At least in shotgun I could imagine I was the one makes all the decisions. And Emmett's driving? We're both adrenaline junkies (me not so much this year) so I'll just leave it at that.
Reluctantly I joined Emmett in the front
"Those weapons you call shoes, better not have left any marks on my baby"
"Where the hell were you?" I ignored his comment and demanded as much as a person could when whispering. I sat sides ways so I could keep an eye on my best friend but still manage to keep an eye on my ex and his driving. This position also made it possible to see the looks Edward and Emmett had just exchanged . Something was up. "What?"
"Uhh…we…just" A stuttering Emmett, meant a guilty Emmett. He look to his brother for answer but Edward's eyes were back on Bella "We told you we went to get the car"
"Huh" letting him know I knew something was up
Edward "People were we staring and whispering so I wanted to get her out of there sooner rather than later"
EPOV
It wasn't a lie per say. Those people had no right to gawk and gossip about Bella, I wanted to protect her from all that…But neither Emmett nor myself wanted to tell Rose that she was working for the thing that was responsible for ending their relationship and starting a war between the girls and us.
RPOV
"Oh….well you should have waited for me. If you do that again so help me-"
"Again?" Emmett said, trying to contain a smile "You plan on seeing us again?" …Yes-no…may-" Bella stirred in the back- interrupting my thoughts before the got anymore dangerous.
We all froze while Bella made a few low noises and rubbed her head up and down Edward's shoulder a few times. Shit she will freak if she wakes up right now!!
EPOV
Greatest sensation I have ever felt. It wasn't anything sexual, not at all. But feeling her move against me like that…god! It just felt so normal, so natural. She fit so perfectly against me. I wouldn't mind if my whole existence revolved around being here for this girl who I've only known for only about- what- 8 minutes?? God Edward snap out of it! She's just a beautiful girl laying in your arms- get over it!
Bella's breathing changed and she let out a low painful sigh/moan and began fidgeting more and her brow furrowed. She looked distressed "Shhhh" I said barely above a whispering while very very slowly rocked her back and forth till her face and body relaxed. Once she did I gently kissed the top of her head, trying to wish away whatever was troubling Bella in her sleep.
Rose cleared her throat and I look to see both her and Emmett looking at me. Emmett looking more at Bella with a sorrowful expression on his face, while Rose…well Rose narrowed her eyes as she stared at me as if to say "What was that about Cullen?". I looked back at her innocently, having no answer to her silent question. Seriously though, why did I do that?
RPOV
I pointed my finger in Emmett's face, and in the most threatening whisper I could manage, said "Drive, and I swear to God if you speed not only will you not being able to have children, but Carlisle won't even recognize you. And you" Now speaking to Edward "Keep your hands where I can see them or consider the same consequences"
I've known Edward all my life, I knew he wouldn't molest Bella or anything. He was a good guy, but that's my Bella he's holding- oh and I saw that kiss he laid on her head. It was innocent enough, but still. If he did it again, the second Bella was safely in her head- he was going to end up with a broken limb.
"Rose, I would love to drive" He stressed 'drive' knowing full well how much it annoyed me that I wasn't the one behind the wheel. Look who found his balls "But in order for that to happen I need to know where you two live"
"Third and Meyer"
"Third and Meyer??" they both asked
"Yes" I said plainly. I was used to that reaction by now
"That's on the other side of town" Edward asked
"And?"
EPOV
Is she serious? That's atleast an hours walk. Rose seemed extremely protective of Bella, I didn't understand why she would allow her friend to walk
"Don't you have a car?"
"Yes, but we'd rather walk. Okay?"
"But I don't get-"
"Just drop it lil bro" Emmett didn't look away from me till I agreed.
My eyes returned to Bella but still managed to see Rose and Emmett exchange glances. I swear I saw Rosalie mouth something like looked like a "thank you" after which Em gave her a small nod.
We drove in complete silence for awhile. I guess it should have felt weird that we were riding around with Rose who we hadn't seen in years and the way we left things…not good. But for some reason it felt oddly normal, like we were back in high school and coming back from a long exhausting night of fun in Port Angeles.
After about 15 minutes we ran into traffic- major traffic. Emmett insisted that he could maneuver through the lanes to side roads which would be cleared, but Rosalie and I repeatedly shot him down saying that his movements would surely wake Bella. So there we sat in bumper to bumper traffic. This of course was very unfortunate and fortunate. As much I as I wanted Bella to be sleeping soundlessly in her own bed, I couldn't help but be grateful for the extra time I had with her.
I took this time to think about what I did and didn't know about Bella.
I knew she was friends Alice and Rose, which said a lot about her. Being that close with them meant that Bella was smart, unique, witty, had a good sense of humor, and caring. Hell the fact that she lived with them meant she could hold her own against two people with strong personalities and that she had an infinite amount of patience. The fact that the girls cared about her so much only reinforced my thoughts. Alice and Rosalie wouldn't friend, let alone love someone so much, if that person wasn't deserving of their love.
I knew Bella had an amazing voice and played guitar beautifully, so music definitely could be something we had in common. My mother taught me how to play piano and after she passed when I was 10 my study of the instrument only intensified and I took up guitar for another challenge…another distraction.
From what I had seen that night and the way Alice and Rose worried for Bella, I knew that she was terribly sad. Something I had also experienced, but I had no clue as to what had broken her down. By the loose fit of her jeans, I knew that she wasn't always this thin and so whatever happened, occurred not too long ago. What happened that broken her down?
That was one of a billion things I didn't know about her. How old was she? Where was she from? What was her favorite book, movie, color, band? Where did she go to school? What was her family like? Given fact that she was unconscious at that moment, I couldn't get any answers from her…but I could get some from Rose.
"Rose" I whispered. After being in traffic for 20 minutes rose have finally turned around in her seat before motion sickness got the best of her. A half an hour ha passed since then and no one had made a sound so I wasn't sure if she was awake or not. "Rose"
"Mhmm?" She half mumble. She's definitely half asleep
"Where did you meet Bella?" I was going to ask her the most logical questions based on the fact that I was holding a girl who passed out in front of me. This way I didn't sound like a complete creeper for asking in depth questions about a girl I had just met.
"Forks" she yawned. Wait what? Forks?! I had lived there my entire life, how is it possible that I had never met this girl? I would have remembered her.
"She moved there right after you two and Carlisle left." Definitely half asleep, otherwise she never would have spoken of our departure so nonchalantly."
"Why??" It was the only question I could think of. Don't get me wrong I loved Forks. My parents grew up there and so did their parents- but who in this day in age, who in there right mind who move to Forks?
"Mom remarried she came to live with her dad" she yawned again.
"Her dad?"
"Shhh. Dude let her sleep" Em whispered
With that I shut up. Odds were I'd only end up aggravating Rose, (danger Will Robinson DANGER) and I was getting tired as well. It was a long week of work, and truth be told I didn't even want to come out to tonight. I was glad on so many levels that I did.
"You know we're closer to our place than their's right?" Em said quietly
"Don't even think about it, Rose will kill you" I said having successfully held back a yawn.
"I know I was just saying" He said innocently.
I suppressed another yawn, thinking it wouldn't be fair to fall asleep and leave my brother the only one awake. From her silence I could tell that Rose had already broken shotgun road trip rules by sleeping.
"Edward you can fall asleep you know"
"I'm not" Here comes another yawn…
"Tired?" He let out a low chuckle "I'm a big boy, I think I can held it. Besides thanks to 6 cans of Red Bull and a full bladder I'm wide awake."
"You're sure? Can you even see out of that eye" I said trying not to laugh. I had realized that he had a nice shiner, from Rose no doubt. Man I wish I had seen that.
" Ha ha, just close your eyes already" He said rolling his eyes
I did as I was told, but not before positioning myself to ensure that there was no shot of Bella falling off me. After taking one last look at her, I wrapped my arms around her so my right hand locked on to my left wrist and rest my head on the window and fell asleep.
A light breeze blew across my face "Ow"… It's always wonderful to wake up to the sound of your brother being hit by a girl.
"You were asleep, I was trying to- ow!"
"Feel me up?!" I was too tried to open my eyes but, visualizing them two fighting was hilarious. Two people making giant gestures with their hands and arms but somehow managing to keep their argument at a whisper.
"I didn't want to wake you so I was going to carry you up stairs- Jesus Christ, that what I get for being a gentleman"
"You were going to have to wake me up eventually to find out what building and what apartment I lived in!" she hissed
"Actually, no I wouldn't have. Your phone started vibrating before so I answered it"
"My phone? My phone that was in my skirt??" It was nice knowing you Emmett, you were a good brother but foolish foolish man
"Ew no what do you take me for?" ohh I don't go there bro."it was already hanging out of your pocket, so the vibrations made it fall on to the floor"
"Bullshit"
"It was Alice, wondering why she beat us here" Damn how long was I asleep that Alice had already got off work? "So I explained everything to her and she told me where you lived"
Rose was about to say something but my brother interrupted her "That's it-" I hear passenger door close
RPOV
He took me by my elbow and led us away from the car. Who the fuck does he think he is?!
"Get your hands off of me Cullen!" He finally released me and we glared at each other
"Listen" He took a deep breath to try and compose himself.
I knew what would come next- he pinched the bridge of his nose with his left thumb and index finger. It was something he and Edward did; they both got it from their mom. I remember her doing that when she would come home to find the house in shambles because Emmett would turn of the furniture to create obstacle courses for us to roller skate through.
"What happened back in High School-"
"No, no we are not talking about this!" I went to move away from him, not wanting to revisit those painful memories, but he blocked my way.
"Yes we are! I understand that I hurt you, and for that I'm terribly sorry"
"I'm not having this conversation Emmett!"
"God you are so stubborn!! Did you ever once stop to think ask me my side of the story before you and Alice unleashed hell on Edward and I?"
"YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY?" I fought to keep my composure. I had already hit Emmett once tonight- and I wanted to do it again!...And I want to break down and cry. I hate myself for letting him have so much control over my emotions after all these years.
It was coming up on the end of my junior year and Emmett's senior. We fought constantly but loved each other fiercely- it was our thing and everyone knew it. We had been going out since the 7th grade after all so everyone was used to it. But as the year was coming to a close we fought more and more over the most mundane things, mainly because I was so scared of him going off to college. I was afraid of him never calling or visiting me, of him losing interest in me- you know the whole out of sight out of mind thing. He constantly assured me that nothing would happen, that I was his and nothing would change that. Emmett was the only person who knew about my insecurities, everyone else just thought I saw myself as nothing less than perfect. But when it came to Emmett moving away, being around older more "experienced" girls, I could help but doubt myself.
So I fought with him, and one particular week the fighting was insane. Emmett was starting to study for his finals, and started applying for jobs near his campus, while I still had classes for another 3 and a half weeks. I was furious that he wasn't spending more time with me, and he was stressed from the work he was doing and I knew- I knew something else was up but he kept blowing it off, saying that he was perfectly fine- that nothing was going on. Did he forget that I had known him forever, that I could tell when he was lying? The fact that he was keeping something from me was so infuriating!!
It was a Friday night and Emmett and I had a huge blow out the night before, him saying he was doing everything he could to spend time with me while I screamed at him for never being around. We were supposed to be meeting up at Jessica Stanley's house party but never finished making plans like who was driving or when to meet. I remember hearing him slam the phone down, right after which I threw mine against the wall. I deliberated on whether or not to go, and ended up heading over with Alice about 4 hours after it had started.
I was still furious with Emmett, but I was so desperately wanted to see him. I realized that I only had him for awhile longer before he went off to school. He was going to take some summer classes so he could end up taking fewer classes during the year so he could come visit me more often. I wanted to apologize, and just spend as much time with him as I could
We could hear the music blasting from a block away and when I was in the house, everyone was either, dancing or drinking or was about to pass out. Alice and I asked around to see if anyone had seen Emmett but no one had. Finally my eyes fell upon a boy with bronze hair sprawled out on the couch- Edward.
Edward never drank, infact none of us- Me, Alice, Emmett and Edward never drank. We agreed many times that it was stupid and if you had to get drunk to have fun- then your life must be pretty lame.
"Edward" I shook him but he shook me off. Alice leaned into him and he face was filled with disgust
"Ugh! He reeks of beer!"
"What the hell is wrong with him?- Edward!" Still nothing. Alice slapped him across the face and at the same time we both screamed his name. At that point he sat up so quickly that he fell off the damn couch.
"Uhhh uncool ladies" He tried to get up but fell back down on the couch
"Edward you're drunk!" Alice screeched
"Thanks" He said with lifeless eyes, as he grabbed a beer off the floor and took a big gulp of it "That's what I hoping to achieve" He let out a low sad chuckle and mumbled something to himself. He went to take another drink before I grabbed the bottle from him
"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" I yelled. He knew better than this, the Edward I knew wasn't this stupid. He simply rolled his eyes before closing them
"God dammit Edward, what's wrong? Talk to us" Alice pleaded.
" 'God dammit Edward, what's wrong? Talk to us!!' "he mocked Alice as his threw his hands around dramatically Edward. "My God fuck off, the both of you! You never give me one moment of silence! 'Edward let's go here' 'Edward what's wrong' 'Let's go to the mall' 'Edward, Edward, Edward!! ' A person can only take so much whining and bitching! Get a life!"
Alice scrunched up her face trying to hold back her pain but by simply looking at her face you could tell how hurt she was. Tear slowly creep out of her eyes. We had all basically grown up together, been friends since before I could remember- and he does this? After all we had done for each other- he decides to go and be an asshole. I was just as hurt as Alice, but anger quickly took over my pain and I slapped him HARD across the face
"Bitch!"
I was about punch him was I heard Emmett's voice boom from the kitchen "HEY THERE YOU ARE!"
I grabbed Alice's hand and went running toward his voice
We turned the corner "Emmett I'm going to kill your brot-"Alice gasped, I stopped dead in my tracks and my mouth fell open. There was Emmett, dipping some blonde girl with straight long hair, whose face I couldn't see- he was kissing her endlessly. My heart fell to feet,- that's why he had been acting to weird. That's why I hadn't been seeing him, he was with another girl. Everything I was afraid of happening when he left had already started. Emmett finally took his lips off the girl and spun her so hard that she was flying out of the room.
"Whoops!" he burst out laughing "Babes you okay?"
I tried to keep a sob from escaping my lips, but my breathing became ragged and tears streamed down my face. Alice tried to get my attention but I couldn't take my eyes off the guy I loved, the guy who claimed to love me. The person who I had given and shared everything with...
Emmett must have heard my sob escape, turned around and saw me. He eyes met mine and darted between me and the direction in which the hussy had just been making out with, went. His eyes became HUGE as he realized what I just witnessed. I caught him in the act. I knew his little secret.
"Rose, baby it is NOT hat it looks like" He slurred and stammered a few steps towards me and he tried to take my face in his hands but I flinched and jumped back.
"Don't you dare touch me!"
"Rose I just-"
"I can't believe you! You, you SON OF A BITCH!!" Emmett's face contorted and I was about to go off on him or just collapse right there on the floor but Alice somehow managed to drag me out of the house.
The days that followed where filled with screaming matches and other battles. One person's tires would get slashed and the other side would retaliate, rumors flew all around the school, photo shopped pictures of me naked were strewn across the school. I even went as far to make out with Mike Newton in front of Emmett. We were almost arrested AND thrown out of school because of everything that went down. Things got so bad that when Emmett's graduation came and him, Edward and their father moved away. Edward didn't even finish the school year.
So there I was, standing in front of the the guy who had broken my heart all those years ago, and he had the balls to ask me if I ever thought about his side of the story?!
"Please, please would you just hear me out" He said closing his eyes tightly. He did that whenever he was about to say something that was hard for him. It was a rare sight and painful sight, so stopped trying to get away. "You remember how tightly wound I was back then? I was cramming for all my finals, was freaking out about college, and-"
"Yes, and I also remember you kis-"
"I'll get to that I swear…Rose what month did this all go down during?"
"You were just about to graduate" I knew the exact date but wasn't going to tell him that "So it was towards the end of May" His eyes which had been looking at mine suddenly shot over to the side, and it annoyed the hell out of me! "Emmett I don't get what does-"
Oh my God. Something clicked in my brain. He had been acting so strange then-distant, angry, sad…scared? I thought it was all because of him going off to college. God how could I have been so stupid! The night of the party… it was the anniversary of the death of his mother.
Everyone thought Elizabeth was going to pull through…when she died, all the Cullen's took it differently. Carlisle was a wreck, but he tried to tend to his sons as much as he could. He simultaneously tried to bury himself in research to figure out where he had gone wrong in treating his wife. Edward would sit as his piano constantly, challenging himself to memorize and perfect complicated pieces and would scold himself mercilessly if he messed up. Emmett focused all his feelings on sports so he could work off or bury his feelings. He became the most athletic and fit 11year old in history. Alice and I tried to comfort them, but being so young there was only so much we could understand and do. So made sure we were there for them, and looked out for them.
I think the turning point for all of them was when Alice and I, at the tender age of 10, tried to make dinner for the Cullen's. The boys walked when the heard us screaming, we had set nearly half the kitchen on fire- how I don't know but to this day I still blame Alice. Emmett rain out and got the hose to drown the fire and flooded the room in the process. Carlisle came bounding in to see what happened but slipped on the wet floor and ended up taking us all out. We all burst out laughing, it was the first time they had done so in a month.
"Emmett I'm sorry I can't believe Alice and I forgot" in my most sincere voice
"It's okay, there was a lot going for all of us.I was drowning in school work, trying to pass my finals, I was freaked about college because I was going to be away from Edward and dad…and you. I wasn't used to being on my own, always had people there for me. And the thought of leaving you behind to be hounded on by every person with XY chromosomes in Forks was driving me crazy! …but I was a big boy I should have just…I know dealt with it" He still wouldn't look at me "Then came the day of the party, it was the same day as…mom"
"I had gone in to my dad's study to talk to him but he wasn't there- Edward was, man he looked horrible. He was sitting at my dad's desk surrounded by papers with his head in his hands. I asked him what wrong and that's when he told me"
He looked like he was struggling to find the words or like he was trying to stop himself from saying them. He looked back towards the car "I think Edward might be awake, we should really be getting Bella-"He tried to walk away but this time it was me who blocked him
"Emmett, what did Edward find?" placing my hand on his chest to keeping him from moving, he let out an exhausted sigh
"Edward for some reason, decided to go through our dad's research he had done on mom and he ended up finding our that he was keeping something from us…turns out what my mom had might be genetic, that she could have passed it on to us."
I shook my head quickly, trying to register what he had said. Genetic, meaning he and Edward could have it too…they could die.
Emmett roughly rubbed his hands over his face many times "We were furious that he had kept this from us. How do you do that to your kids?! How do you not let them know that they might be dying? You don't keep shit like that to yourself!...And I was so…scared. I was petrified. I was worried what would happen if I got sick- what would happen to you guys. My mind couldn't even process the thought of Edward getting sick and dying, I don't know how I would survive that.
"I just remember cursing and thinking that life was so unfair. You know why me and all that crap. Neither Edward nor I said how we felt obviously, but I know we both just wanted to be normal teenagers, you know live normal lives and not have this impending doom hanging over us.
"Emmett…I-I" What do you say to all of this?
Em scratched the back of his head "Edward and I decided to do what any normal trouble young person would do. We went to Jessica's party and got thrashed. Neither of us had drank before so we just kept throwing them back, hoping to forget about everything even if it was just for the night. From what I heard Edward was a mean drunk
Explains why he was being an asswhole…
Looking back at me now "But Rose, you have to know that what he said, he didn't mean. You know Edward, you know he didn't mean any of it. It was a mistake- everything that happened the night was a mistake" I unconsciously flinched at the memory of seeing him with that girl. He took my hand into his
"I really, really need you to understand something right now" He made sure my eyes made contact with his "The only reason, I kissed that girl- THE ONLY REASON, is because I was so drunk that I thought she was you. I had only seen her from behind, so all I saw was long blonde hair, just like yours, long legs on a girl that was wearing a tiny outfit" He let out a small chuckle but quickly pushed all humor side "All I wanted to do was be with you and after everything that had happened, after everything I had learned and after all those beers I drank- I could help myself by grabbing hold of you- well her hoping that it would all go away."
By then the tears started streaming down my cheeks but I tried to keep my face composed for Emmett's sake because he was barely hanging on. After his mother passed I learned that he depended on me to be the strong one when it came to emotions. He took my face into his giant hands and brushed my tears away with his thumbs
"I need you to understand that I was-not-cheating-on-you. You can hate me all you want but just know that I never meant to hurt you. Edward and I both never meant to hurt you girls."
I stared into his eyes, wanting to hold him and never let go. I tried to take in everything he had told me. He wasn't cheating on me, he was acting out because of his mom anniversary which both Alice and I had forgotten about, he and Edward could or maybe even were sick right now, and he hadn't been cheating me. He said they had never meant to hurt us….then what about everything that had happened afterward? Why did they continue the stupid battle that raged on? Why did he slash my tires? Egg our houses? Plaster those pictures of us in the halls? I felt guilty as hell for everything that had happened that led up to that, I was so selfish and stupid. But make no mistake, I was still thoroughly angry and hurt for everything that went down after it.
I took both of his hands that were still on my face, and bought them back down to his side. He coughed and sniffed, obviously trying to keep his emotions in check.
"So are…are you and Edward okay?"
"Things were horrendous after we left. When we moved to-"
"That's not what I meant. Are you guys okay? Are you-"
"Sick? No we're both stay really active, try not to eat too much"
"Good"
"As of right now we're both extremely healthy, handsome and single men" He said with a weak smile.
"What do you mean as of right now?"
"Carlisle does some tests every now and then. Our mom had never shown as signs of her disease till later in life so it could be the same case with us-but no worries, dad said it's just a precaution. He doesn't think she passed it to us." I let out my breath that I didn't realize I had been holding since I asked my question.
"So how have you been Ms Hale?" he said grinning
"Oh no you don't! I still have plenty to be mad about Mister Cullen. Come on I want to get Bella home"
Turned away from him and we made our way back to the car.
EPOV
I could no longer hear Emmett and Rosalie scold each other, I wouldn't have been surprised if they had killed each other and the one living was currently trying to hide the body. The silence let me drift back to sleep. Not much later I was woken by the sound of my door being opened and the warm night air blowing across my face.
"Alright mister, time to hand over Sleeping Beauty" my brother said gently
"No, I'll take her up" I tried to shake off my sleep and looked down to see Bella still had her eyes closed and was secure in my arms. I could have slept all night with her like that, but she really should have been dreaming in her bed.
"Edward" my brother said "You are way to tired to walk and carrying her, you'd probably end up tripping or dropping her" Never
I tried to slow get up, as to not disturb the beautiful exhausted girl in my arms, but my arms and legs only responded back with pins and needles instead of movement. Dammit
Emmett chuckled "And I'm willing to bet good money that you arms are asleep?" At least that means that I managed to keep a good hold on Bella in my sleep.
Reluctantly, after much discussion with Emmett and Rose (saying if we waited for my body to wake up I could easily bring her up which they thought was ridiculous) and with great discomfort, I managed to un-clasp my hand from my wrist so Emmett could pick Bella up from me, but not before I said a silent goodnight to her. I prayed that this wasn't the last time I saw her. I will see you at Twilight
Em effortlessly scooped her up bridal style. A little too easily that Rose and I both warned him to watch her head. Rose closed my door, but not before looking to me. She was definitely conflicted, not knowing what to say to me. Had she been crying?
Like I said, this ride in the car very much reminded me of our youth, so I said something short and simple that I knew would wake her smile.
"Goodnight Milady" I said in an English accent while smiling and bowing my head. And there was the smile I remember, granted it was an exhausted and much smaller version of it but nonetheless it made her smile.
"Good night good Sir" She said while closing my door.
So? What did you think? Let me know what you like or didn't like or if you have any ideas for me!
