A/N. Ok, you guys, I appreciate the reviews that I have gotten, but I thought I would have gotten a lot more by now. So please review. I want to have a least 20 reviews before I post the next chapter. I already have chapter 12 written up, just finished it today, but before I can put up anymore chapters I want to know what you think and if you like it. I know a lot of people say this, but it's true, reviews really do make you feel good. So please, we're aiming for 20 reviews. By the way, I do accept anonymous reviews.

CHAPTER SEVEN

Emmett's Point of View

11:00pm. 11:00pm and 30 seconds. I was bored out of my mind and all alone inside my quiet room. I had absolutely nothing to do. Absolutely no entertainment. TV was showing crap and I didn't want to listen to the radio. Come on, where were the hot, sexy nurses? I don't think this hospital had any.

I laid back and closed my eyes. I tried to sleep. The pain in my head wasn't that bad, but it was enough to keep me awake. Jeez, I wish Rosalie was here. The idea scared me when I thought of it. Why did I care so much for this one girl? This one girl that had a boyfriend. But I wanted her so bad. I wanted her to want me too.

That's when the idea shot into my head. She has to be in the telephone directory. I could call her. But guess what, I didn't have my laptop to look it up, because my parents decided that leaving their son in a hospital would be a good way to punish him. So there I sat all alone.

I'm sure the hospital staff can look it up for me. They must have computers. I buzzed the nurse in. My fingers crossed, hoping that she would be hot, but no such luck.

"Hello," I said politely.

"Hello sir. Did you need something?" she asked.

"Actually, I was wondering if you could do something for me." I said with a smile.

"Ummm, ok."

"Could you look up on the directory for Rosalie Hale please?"

"Ok sir." And with that she walked out. About 5 minutes passed and she re-entered.

"Sir, we found a Rosalie Hale, however her address and telephone have been restricted."

I cursed silently to myself. "Ok, thank you."

12:00am. 12:01. Ok, that was it. I couldn't take it anymore. I was getting out of here. My mind started plotting how I would escape. First, I would need to get out of my hospital dress. I know they had my clothes in a bag, in the corner of the room. I ran across to get it and changed. How to leave here without 

anyone noticing me? The question hung in my brain. I could come out and go to the elevator on my right, but that was directly in front the nurse station and the nurse who came before might notice me. Ok, I'd go in the opposite direction and take the stairs. Then waltz out the front door and go to Edward's house.

It happened just how I thought it. I crept down the stairs and came out the front door pretending to be a late night visitor.

"Emmett, you are so stupid." I said to myself. I was standing on the sidewalk, facing the car park of the hospital. What happens next? Was I supposed to run to Edward's house that was 22 blocks away? Wait, why was I going to Edward's in the first place. He would rat me out to Carlisle and Esme.

I stood there in the darkness, wondering who to call. The cool night breeze hit me. All I was wearing was a T-shirt and jeans and I felt cold. For the first time I felt truly lonely. Everyone had somebody. All my friends knew exactly who they would call if they were in my position. Jasper would call Alice, Edward would call Bella, and Tony would call Jessica. HEY! The idea popped into my mind. I'm calling Tony!

I put my hand in my pocket and felt around for my phone. Where the hell was it? I cursed aloud when I realized it wasn't there.

"Dad I will kill you!" I shouted.

Maybe I could walk to Tony's. Wait, what crap was I thinking, Tony's house was even further than Edward's and besides, I didn't want to get mugged. Not that I had any money, because a certain father of mine emptied my wallet.

I turned to go back inside. I opened the door, and that sickening hospital scent hit me. Nope, that was it. I was not going back. I was surprised the hospital staff hadn't come looking for me yet.

I ran out into the car park. Ok, I told myself, I would jump a car. I knew how to do it, thanks to Tony. I found the perfect car. A convertible Audi R8, easy to get into, which made borrowing it a whole lot easier.

I opened up the front and fire started it. Perfect. I had got it running. I jumped in to the front seat and sped out of the car park.

I drove past Edward's turnoff, telling myself I would go to Tony's. But I passed him too. I knew exactly where I was going; I just didn't want to admit it to myself. I was already cruising along Ammervale Drive. I stopped in front of the house. I got out of the car and stood contemplating if I should really go in. She lives with her parents, what happens if they see me? Will she get annoyed?

I hopped back into the car. But I don't want to leave, I told myself. I wanna see her. I came out of the car again.

"Don't think about it." I told myself, "Just go there and ring the doorbell."



I strolled up the walkway and hesitated at the door. But I still rang the doorbell. I rang about 4 times before someone came to me. A rather sleepy doorman answered. I don't blame him, I mean; it was 1 in the morning.

"Ummm, hi. I know it's very early, but, can I speak to Rosalie, please?"

"Sir, I don't believe Ms. Hale would very much appreciate it if I wake her now."

"I know, I know, but, could you wake her up anyway."

"Ok sir, but this is your call."

"Thanks," I smiled appreciatively at him.

"Please come inside." He said.

"Ok, thanks."

I went inside and he put me in the waiting room. I sat there playing with my fingers, I was a bit nervous, thinking about her reaction when she came down here and saw me, but it was too late to turn back now. I was already in her house.

And then she walked down the steps, now tying her pink robe around her. She was rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and then she looked up at me.

"Em-Emmett?! Is something wrong? What the hell are you doing here? Its 1am!"

"I know Rose, ummm…" I said trying to get a reason for my being there.

"Jeez, I've only known you for 3 days and your already at my house."

"I know, but… I ran away from the hospital. Nobody else would have let me in their house without telling my parents, so I came here."

"Wait, let me get this straight, you're running away from your parents and came to me. How did you know I'd let you in?"

"I didn't really know if you would have, but you were my best option," I lied. "And, I'm not running away from my parents, I'm just trying to prove a point to them."

"What?"

"Well, they decided to punish me for being so careless with my life and what I own," I said sarcastically, "By making me stay at the hospital for one day longer. One day without phone, internet, laptop, human interaction, or any entertainment whatsoever."

At this she laughed. "And you decided you would be a rebel?"



"Yeah, I guess. I'm kinda the rebel in my family."

"Yeah," she said laughing, "Me too."

"So what's the worst thing you've ever done?" I asked her.

"Once I cursed a teacher and set his things on fire."

"Wow," I said laughing, "You're a wild child. But teachers and I don't really get along either. I remember, Ms. Wilson, 9th grade English teacher, I vandalized her house. I took red paint and marked the entire exterior of her house with graffiti. When they caught me, the school counselor said that she thinks I have a problem with authority!"

We were laughing together. I loved the way she looked when she smiled. And I was more than happy to know I was the reason behind that smile.

"Hey you wanna go outside on the patio?"

"Sure," I said and followed her.

"So how long do you wanna stay here for?"

"Well, just until 8. Unless you want me to leave."

She laughed again. "No Emmett. I totally support your strike against your parents."

"Great. So, Rose, about your car, I'm willing to get you another. I'm really sorry about that. Just don't press charges, please; my parents would go ballistic on me."

"Emmett, I'm not pressing charges. And you don't have to worry about paying for the car. I'm ordering one tomorrow, it should be here by next week."

"Well, let me make up for it. I'll drive you around for a week."

"Ummm, that's okay. You like to speed a little too much and I don't want to be a victim of your driving."

I chuckled. "Fine."

"So, how many times have you been involved in a car accident?"

"A few times. Once I hit a cop. That was double trouble. I thought they would have sent me to jail. But thankfully, I was spared, but not from my parents."

"Yeah, mine would have grounded me."

"I was grounded for like a month. So how are you gonna be getting around for this week?"

"It's between my mom's car and Jason's."



I couldn't help the way I felt when she said his name. I tensed up because I hated the guy so much.

"Ok," I said quietly.

"Hey, speaking of cars, how did you get here?"

"Oh shit!" I said suddenly remembering how I had come. "Wow, ummm, Rose; could you do me a favour?"

"That depends on what it is." She said watching me with a confused expression on her face.

"Ummm, I hotwired a car in the hospital car park and 'borrowed' it to get here."

"What! Emmett, are you trying to get arrested?"

"I know, I know. I need your car, just to pull the other one back to the hospital."

"Wow Emmett. Jeez, you keep finding ways to get yourself in trouble. I'll go get the keys."

I waited for her to pull her mom's car in front of the other one. We had found a chain from in her garage and used that to connect both cars. We hopped into her own and she sped off down the road.

"You talk about me speeding, you're over 190mph!"

"Yeah, only because we have to return this car before someone realizes its missing and I have to get back before my parents realize that I'm missing."

I laughed. She looked really sexy when she was driving. Her long hair blew in the wind and the scent wafted up to my nose. It was delicious. The way she held the steering wheel, she was so in control. I wanted her to be in control of me. Wait, man, I sound whipped!

"You know you look really hot when you're driving," I said.

"You think so Emmett" She said seductively. And suddenly the car stopped. She leaned over to my seat, put her hand in the middle of my chest and shifted all her weight on to me. She lowered her mouth to my ear. "Jason thinks so too." She said, and went back to her seat laughing.

"Jeez Rose," I said clenching my jaw.

Just then we turned in to the hospital car park. Great, no cops outside. We parked the car in the exact same spot I got it and then drove off, laughing, feeling like professional criminals.

"That was actually really fun," She said between giggles.

"Yeah."

"So what are you gonna do when they realize you're not in the hospital?"

"I was actually just gonna show up at the house." I replied.



"I could drop you there now."

"Ok. I'm probably 5 minutes drive from here, on Lizado Avenue."

This would be over before I knew it. I didn't want to leave Rose but I didn't want to get her into any trouble either. The rest of the ride went by in silence. "Right here on your left." I said as she approached my house.

"Yup." She responded.

"Rose…" I said still inside the car.

"Yeah Emmett?"

"You didn't forget our date on Monday right?"

She laughed, "No, but it's not a date. It's lunch."

"Fine." I muttered.

I wanted to kiss her so badly right now. She looked so hot in that robe. Should I kiss her? The question replayed in my mind. I couldn't help myself. I had to do something. I leaned in and gave her a peck on the cheek. Then I jumped out the car unto the walkway.

She started the car, and got ready to drive off. She didn't even look at me when I kissed her. Was she angry? But just as she put her foot on the gas, a smile crept up her face and she turned and looked at me.

"Hey, don't touch me again."

And smiling she sped off.
