Chapter 10

"Vincent." Carlisle growled.

"Give me my daughter." Vincent snarled at him, as the family stepped in front of Harley and Shane.

"I am not your daughter!" She shouted at him, and his head snapped towards her, making Shane step slight in front of her.

Suddenly he lunged at them, but Carlisle caught him around the middle and they went flying backward from the force.

"Get them out of here!" Esme shouted from the other corner of the room, and immediately Emmett and Jasper were rushing the young couple out of the house.

They got into Jasper's car, and Emmett sped out of the garage at full speed. They drove for miles without saying a word. Not one noise was made, until finally Emmett couldn't stand it anymore.

"We'll need to talk about this sometime." He said heavily.

"Talk about what?" Harley asked, confused by his sudden outburst.

"You two. Since when have you guys been more than friends?" He asked appalled.

She looked at Shane and they both shrugged. "I don't know! I have liked him since fifth grade I just never told anyone about it."

He nodded. "I have liked Harley since the fourth grade, and I had no idea she felt the same way."

"Wait a minute!" Emmett yelled, and he accidentally swerved the car sending Harley flying into Shane's lap. "Shane, when you told me you had your eyes on someone else...YOU MEANT MY SISTER?"

She looked up at Shane and smiled. He winked at her. "Yeah. I told you she wouldn't be jealous."

"But...this cannot be happening! Now I am gonna have to kick your ass. Damn...why do you put me in these situations?" He shouted.

Harley poked Jasper, who (despite it being his own car) was sitting in the passenger seat in front of her, and gave him a pleading look. "Help." She mouthed.

He turned to Emmett. "Calm down buddy. You can't blame them. You told me that Shane was the only guy you trusted her with. Remember?"

"Whatever..." Emmett replied while his grip on the wheel grew tighter and more painful-looking.

"You are proving me right by the way." Jasper added, making Emmett turn to look at him.

"What are you talking about?" Emmett challenged, seeing as he hated to be proven wrong.

"When you said that Shane was the only guy you trusted her with, I told you that I wondered whether you'd ever like a guy she liked. And then I actually used Shane as an example. I said, 'I bet that if Harley started to date Shane, you'd hate him too.' And what are you doing right now? Wanting to hate Shane. Although you can't hide your true feeling from me, bro." Jasper grinned. "Even though you want to hate him because he is now dating Harley, deep down you are ecstatic. This is what you have been waiting for. This is how you wanted the situation to turn out. Am I right?"

Emmett shrugged. "Maybe."

Harley's eyes widened in shock. "Really?"

"Yes." He said a bit more sternly than needed at this moment.

No one wanted to say anything then, so there was more silence...except for the angry mumbling Emmett was making towards himself. Jasper and Harley kept exchanging looks through the side-view mirror, and Shane's grip on her hand was getting tighter and more protective by the second. Finally, they made it to a small town somewhere far from Forks.

"Where are we Emmett?" Shane asked, trying to find a sign.

"I don't know, to be honest. I just started driving." He said and the car slowed, and they pulled into a gas station.

Harley looked at the building and read, "Bantam Convenience". "Bantam? What state are we in?" she asked, a little confused and curious of our current whereabouts.

"Well you're in Connecticut, darling."

She turned and saw a woman standing near them. She instantly recognized her. "Mom?" She whispered.
