Chapter 7: Chapter 7
Well still I own nothing.I wish… drools some of those guys are very yummy.
But as I also said at the beginign it is going to take some time to go from friends to more. He is still married and expecting Rose to show up soon, or to go back to her after school is done. It is only 18 months long and as well know vampires do not think of time like we do.
I also am going to hope my spacing works for this level and shows how I want it to. It will make sense later on. If it doesn't I will do my best to fix it up.
Update: 9/6/11
Still working on updating spelling and sentences. I know not perfect, but I am trying.
I tucked her in softly and wrapped her up. I knew this was going to throw her for a loop. I also knew she was going to find a way to blame herself for what had happened.
I sat there looking at her for a short bit. I needed to keep her safe. I couldn't help myself, I bent down and gave her a light kiss on the lips.
Chapter 7.
Emmett's POV.
Bella woke up the next morning and I heard her quietly walking down the steps. She was looking down at her feet but I wasn't sure if she was just that upset or if she was more worried about falling down my stairs. There was no handrail to hold onto which to me did not mater but Bella tended to fall a lot and I really hope she didn't fall down them. I didn't have Carlisile here to fix her up. Plus I still was not sure who I would do with her blood all over the place.
"Morning Bella" I spoke softly. She might also be hungover too. Looking at the clock it was almost noon. At least she had slept about 8 hours last night. "Aarg grumble" was about all I could understand from her. She walked into the kitchen and made herself some coffee. I felt really bad now looking at her. I saw how she looked, she had a huge bruise on her one arm, and Mike had decided to pretend to be a vampire and left a huge welt on her neck as well. I walked over to her and grabbed her into a hug kissing her forhead.
"Bella I need to tell you something, I hope you don't hate me, please don't hate me" I started off. She looked up at me already pissed. Oh god this was not going to go well. "Look Mike asked me where to take you for a date. He know you had money, well technically he knew I did so he thought as my sister you did too, and he wanted to take you someplace nice. I had found that hotel and resturant when I planned to bring Rose here with me. I told him I had an idea and I booked it for you guys. I really had no idea he was going to get drunk, get your drunk, and try to take advantage of you. I am sorry Bella, can you forgive me" I said as I let go and her and took a step back. I almost expected her to flip out, to scream, to yell, to try to hit me. But no all she did was look up and me and blink. I saw the tears in her eyes and she walked out of the room.
Oh god had I screwed up bigtime.
I saw her stumbling back down the steps this time with her bag from last night. I couldn't let her go. I needed to get her to understand how sorry I was. I don't know why but I just felt that I had to get her to understand, I needed her to not be angry at me.
"Bella please wait." I pleadded. "I really didn't mean for this to happen like that, I didn't know what would happen… Bella stop please" I grabbed at her arm and knew I had made a huge mistake and she turned towards me. "Let me go, You are behaving just as badly as he did. Do not touch me" she cried at me as she ran out the door. Thankfully I guess for her she had driving over Saturday morning and had tucked her truck into the garage. I saw her pull out of the driveway and was lost. Shit. I didn't know what to do to fix it. Rose just got over things after a few days normally when we didn't get along. Which was why I was as confused as I was right now. It had been 2 weeks and I still havn't heard from my wife. So far it seems I just have such luck with the women.
I had an idea though. I knew what I wanted to do and where to take Bella for some fun. I had found it online. Ocean Island Café Launge did game night all the time. It was all the Jenga, Monopoly, Scrabble, and Trivial Pursuit you could play. I knew if we did some team games that we could win easy. Especially trivial pursuit. Being over 75 years old had its perks as well as perfect memory. Now it was only getting her to talk to me and come with me. There was one tomorrow night maybe if I give her a day to relax she would come with me. What can it hurt.
Bella-
Hey I am so sorry about the date. I wish I could have gotten there sooner. Please forgive me. I would love it if you cuold join me for some board games at Ocean Island Café Launge tomorrow night at 7. I'll be waiting.
-Em
I didn't hear back from her the rest of the day. I was starting to worry a little bit about if I would see her tomorrow or not. I wasn't sure but I didn't want to pressure her into anything so I just left it with the 1 text message. Monday was the longest day of my life. It had to be. I hadn't heard from Bella in over 24 hours, it was driving me nuts. I wanted to have her here with me. I wanted to give her a hug and say how sorry I was. I just wanted to talk to her and hear her voice. I finished up my class for the day and went back to the house. I do not remeber a thing my teachers said. I was going to have to get some notes from someone who had class with me. I also needed to find a friend to cover for the sunny days too where I couldn't get to class.
I didn't know if it was a date or not but I wanted to feed and then have time to come back to the house and get changed. I quick put on some old clothes not worried if they would get messed up and drove to the park on the other side of town. So far this arangement had been working well. I could go in the morning while Bella was sleeping and then meet her after class. That way I was full through class and while I was hanging out with her. I hadn't had any temping momment yet which I was proud of myself about. I hated being the weak one of the family.
It was almost 7 so I hoped in the SS and went down to the café. I parked the car and looked up at the building and couldn't stop the huge smile that was on my face when I saw her leaning against the building. She had came. I hoped out of the car and went running up to her grabbing her into a giant hug. "I am so sorry" I said while kissing her forhead and the top of her head over and over again. I had missed her so much. Wow I was becoming a pansy. "It's okay Em I know you didn't mean for it to turn out how it did. I just needed time to relax a bit" she said still looking a bit shy. "Well then Bella lets go kick some butt at some games." I laughed. I was hoping this turned out to be as much fun as I could hope. " I rememeber playing monopoly as a child, my brothers used to always cheat" I laughed. "You're jokign right" Bella asked. "Nope it came out in 1924, I was 9. It was expensive to buy back then, and it really wasn't like the Monopoly that is made now but still" I laughed. The look on her face was priceless.
"Lets go" I said grabbing her around the waist and pulling her into the place. It wasn't to crowded which was nice.
We sat down at a table trying to get the hang of how this would go. I really didn't want to play against her so we sat down at a larger table playing trivial pursuit. I hoped we could get the others to play on teams too. We sat down and started talking. Thankfully it seemed everyone else had came with a friend or 2 or knew each other from coming before and were fine with playing teams. We got out the box and it turned out to be the new verson of the game. Who's smarter then Who. It was set up into teams of people over 30 and those under 30. Well in our luck there was only 1 other person at the table under 30 so it was 3 against 5. I figured though it would make it a little more fair since I knew everything. Or at least I hope so.
What city's drivers owe over $460 million in parking fines?
a. New York City
b. Philadelphia
c. Boston
d. Dallas
Oh this was easy after being in New York and seeing how they drove I don't think it could have been easier to know that that city had the most tickets probably given out in history too. The adults picked next. What sense is most closely linked to memory?
a. hearing
b. Smell
c. Touch
d. Sight
They sat there debating it for what seemed like forever. They guessed D sight. It was wrong. It was actually smell.
What actor said. "It's very important that I get hurt?
a. Jackie Chan
b. Chuck norris
c. Bruce Lee
d. Jet Li
Bella stared at me. I knew she expected me to know all things movies. "A – Jackie Chan" I told them. Of corse it was correct. The "adult" team was starting to get a bit annoyed. "So when can we go and play a game together" she whispered in my ear about half way through the round. "Soon" I told her back. We kept going and the under 30 team never got a question wrong. The over 30 team not so much. I started to feel a bit bad in the end. Games like this were not really all that fair. The game didn't last very long at all.
Bella and me decided to head on over to play scrabble with each other after that. Neither of us really was prepaired to talk a lot but wanted some time to ourselfs.
We both picked out 7 letters out of the bag. Oh this was great. I looked at my words and had LOVER. Great way to start out the game.
What shocked me next was that she did a 7 letter word. Somehow the crazy child had drew and a, m, p, I, r, and E. She put vampire off of my Lover. Geez. I just couldn't win. She places her letters down and starts to crack up laughing. "Oh is that how we are going to play this" I tease.
I look down at the letters on my tray. Z-I-L-O-N-G-N-G. "I got it" I say after thinking for a little while.
"Longing, Oh go me" I cheer. She just looks up and me and smirks. Somehow we both keep managing to find good words to use. But we just started and I am sure eventually we will be screwed.
She looks at me almost sad. I have no idea why until I look up and see the word she has used. I know we are going to have to talk about it soon. I know my behavor when I tucked her in the other night wasn't the most brotherly, but she doesn't know about it, thank god. But Rose is still my mate and I know she wouldn't like me hanging around Bella this much. I also know Bella knows this too.
I picked out the new leters for my rack and so did she. Well after that I don't think things could get much worse so I figure why not. I put out ORAL. "Emmett" she huffed, laughing and turning beet red. Well that seemed to have solved the sadness over Rose. It was her turn next. She sat there looking angry at the board. I know by doing longing and vampire we had killed a big part of the board. We really needed to work up and over to make space or else we would have a dead board.
She took the easy way out and put and A and E in to make NAMES. Oh well I guess I couldn't be mad that we hadn't kept up with perverted or words that will make her blush. I have to find a way to make another dirty work. "hum….." I thought outloud and looked over at her giggling at me. I didn't know if I should be worried or not.
Bella's POV:
Emmett was thinking so hard. But he was also smiling and his dimples were showing. He looked so cute. Okay skip cute he was hot. I had been trying to not let those thoughts in my mind but it was hard as we sat here with each other. Could he get much worse with his words, Longing, Lover, Oral. What was next Sex? I laughed out loud and he looked at me I couldn't help but laugh even more.
He started to place his tiles on the board. I had a feeling this was not going to be good. LICKS
He burtst out laughing at the look I gave him. I think I need a drink. What is his goal to put my mind in the gutter and have me thinking about him like that. Oral and Licks. "Esme would be so proud of our vocabulary" I tell him and we both break out laughing. I look down at my tiles and decide to make this worth it. SEX. I swear if Emmett could blush he would. I wish I had a camera ready to take a look of the face he made. I reached over and pushed his jaw up from the floor, and rubbed my finger a little bit on the side of his cold jaw. I quickly realized what I was doing and pulled my hand back.
Emmett quickly moves his hands and puts out his next word. PLEASE. I gag on my soda that I was drinking. "Bella are you okay" he asks. I hadn't noticed how much we hadn't been talking. We had both been just content sitting there letting the game and our words do the talking for us but after that last one I couldn't not say something. "Emmett-?" I ask almost whispering. "Bella it is nothing" he says back quickly "I am just using my tiles" and goes back to looking down at the table. Well this was offically the most unique game of scrabble I have played in my life.
We started to just use up the letters that we had left on our trays and our bags to finish up the game. I glanced up a few times and saw him looking at me. I wasn't sure what to think. Part of me was pretty sure I was reading way to much into what he was using his tiles for. The other half was curious to if he was serious or not.
He had to go and use PENIS. We didn't say anything at that. All I did was look at him while I quickly cleaned up the letters. We needed to talk. I was beyond confused. He had managed to turn his part of the game in sexy body part scrabble. Defently not what I had planned for the night. I think we still had around 15 letters left in the bag but I couldn't sit here anymore with him right now.
(Due to it not tranfering the spacing over from Word I have a screenshot In profile. )
Emmett's POV:
I was having so much fun with this game and finding the easiest way to make things fun. I loved the looks Bella was giving me everytime I put out a unique word. Penis so far had gotten the biggest reaction. I was shocked she let me do TITS without saying it wasn't a word. I sat there for a few minutes staring at hers hoping she wouldn't notice. She seemed to be busy thinking about what word she was going to do next. I did LIP wanting to do Lips but we had used all the S's. I had to use a blank for the L in the first place. It got a bit annoying trying to make words with hardly any letters left and no way to make any dirty words. I had a feeling I was going to get an earful from Bella once we left the café. I was just happy though that she was feeling better from Saturday and was smiling. I just finished up doing WOOD when all of a sudden Bella just looked up and at me and cleaned up the board. She never took her eyes off me. I was in trouble.
Bella stood up and grabbed ahold of my arm. I let her drag me outside and she starts to pull me back towards the car. "Home, Now." Was all she said. We got into the car and drove back to the house. I parked the car and she got out herself. I wish I could tell if she was mad, amused, or upset with me. Girls and all of there emotions were starting to confuse me. I really needed Jaspers help. I hope she wasn't mad though. Oh I hope she wasn't mad. We both walk in the door and she goes and flops down on the couch and lets out a big breath. Oh well here goes and I walk in.
Bella's POV:
Well that was one long ride back to the house. It has only been 2 weeks since Rose stayed in Alaska and he left. I don't even know what is going on with the 2 of them. Why is he acting like this. Oh I know because I am crazy and overthinking everything. He has Rose he wouldn't even be interested in me if he was single I am sure. I am not his type. He obviously likes pretty girls. I am just boring. "Emmett –"
Emmett's POV:
She has been standing there in scilnce for a little bit now. I figure I will let her think. Why did I play those words. She probably thinks I am a total jerk for making her so uncomfortable. I know why I played those words, I was hoping for a reaction. But now standing here I am not sure that is what I wanted or not. I hear her breath and then start to talk. "Bella would you –" we both cut each other off. "Bella would you like a drink?" I ask, "The previous owners left the bar stocked downstairs" I offer. I do not know if it is a good idea to give her liquor or not but what can it hurt right. Maybe she will relax and not be mad at me about being a pervert. "Sure" she said. I lead the way and we head down to the bar. I am not sure what to make her so I keep it simple. "Do you like coconut?" I ask not sure since it wasn't something I would drink, then again I wasn't 21 when I died either so I never did. "Sure, that's fine"
I start to make her a malibu and coke when my phone beeps. I take a look at it.
Em-
Just spit it out already, don't worry about Rose. It will all make sense in a few months
-Alice
Of corse it is my favorite cryptic pixy. She is so getting an evil pixy costume in the mail for halloween this year. I finishing mixing the drink and hope it is not to strong. I really had never drank. Bella takes a few sip and then puts it down. I guess her not gagging is a good sign that it wasn't so strong it would kill her.
Bella's POV:
He was staring at me again. I wonder who had sent him a text. Should I just spit it out and ask him. I guess I might as well. What will it do right. Well besides end up with me here with no car again. CRAP I said after I realized this and looked down and had already sipped ½ of my drink. Now I am stuck here. One thing Charlie taught me was no matter how little never drink and drive. Well that and I was only 19 didn't help the matter. Yes the drinking age here in British Columbia was only 19 but still I wasn't going to push it. I quickly finish the rest of the glass and Emmett looks at me a bit worried. I am not a drinker, and have no idea how much he put in it but it didn't seem strong so I asked him for another. I watched him poor me another drink and quickly took a few sips. I was starting to think being buzzed might help me with this conversations. I was just about to ask someone who is like a brother to me what he ment by lover, penis, sexy, longing, wood, tits, and oral durring our scrabble game. He heve wrote please after I had done sex. There is really one 2 ways you can interpret that. Either he really was using his letters, or he wanted sex. Even in my mind that question seemed totally out of wack. He is married with a wife, I know I am being stupid.
"Emmett I have a question" I ask him a bit slurred. Okay maybe I had enough to drink."What is it Bells" he replies using my nickname that Jake had given me. I try not to think about it. "Honestly, now please be honest, why did you use all of those words on the scrabble board?, Why did you chose them?"
Wow so playing scrabble with yourself is hard. But I used all the letters that actual come in the game to make up the board they played. It was actually kind of fun but defently not planned and too much longer then I thought. But sometimes you mind just goes and you just type what it says. However I couldn't finish up the board. The Q was driving me nuts at the end. Also the spacing from word didn't transfer over into here so sorry it is all messed up. i did my best to space it out in the first few but by the end I couldn't do it.
