My days soon became consumed with planning the trip. Emmett and I continued to grow closer and closer and Jazz had formed a very solid friendship with him. It was good to know that the person who I looked to as a brother got on well with my boyfriend. It meant a hell of a lot to me. Alice had begun to drag me to various malls everyday after school to get all the things we would need. Being that money wasn't a problem for any of us we were going to be doing this trip in style. I had talked to Rosalie on the phone a few times and she seemed nice as well so I was looking forward to meeting her and her boyfriend Edward. They seemed like really down to earth people.

I woke up with a start at 3am the night before we were due to leave for NZ. Jolting up to a sitting position I could feel my heart racing and was surprised that Emmett slept on next to me so soundly. Listening to his soft snores and looking at his well defined chest I felt so much love. I loved it when he kissed me first thing in the morning or when I woke up to find him staring at me intently. I loved how we took turns with who spooned who and that he called me baby. Lying back against Emmett I slid my arm around his waist and cuddled into him. Sighing softly in his sleep he truned towards me and his leg slid over me trapping me into his embrace. I loved it. Trying to forget the nightmare that had awoken me, I thought back to the day Emmett had told me he loved me. it was so unexpected and I never would have thought he would be the one to say it.

It was a Friday night and we had just arrived back to Emmetts from one of Mikes after football BBQ's. the boys had been drinking steadily through the night and both alice and I had ended up being in charge of very drunk boys. Letting us in through the sliding door at the back of emmetts room I had led my drunk boyfriend to his bed and pushed him backwards so he was sitting there. Spying his PSP he had immediately began playing and after watching some One Tree Hill I quickly got bored. When I had this much energy I reminded myself of Alice and her pixie like ways. Flipping onto my stomach and kicking my legs up in the air I leaned over the side of Emmett's bed so I was hanging upside down.

"baby what are you doing?" I heard Emmett exclaim in surprise.

"im bored baby so im gonna be a snoop and look at whats under your bed.. hidden porno mags and all that jazz.." I replied with a laugh.

"Suit yourself"

Looking around I spotted a wad of white lined paper and struggled to gain access to it. Pulling at it I noticed it had writing on it. Once I finally freed it I was surprised to see that it looked like a letter or something.

"What's this baby?" I asked as I read the first few words.

"Huh?" looking up at me I noticed Emmett's eyes suddenly focus.

Snatching the paper from me he moved so I was out of his reach.

"its nothing you needa worry about B its just a little something I had written for the ex."

"Oh now I wanna see it" I cried as I leapt at Emmett.

"Give it here. What does it matter?" I asked

"Nothing I just don't think that there's any reason for you to read it. That stuff was a long time ago."

Pushing himself off the bed Emmett escaped my grasp and started running for the toilet. Chasing after him I got there just in time to see him flushing the first letter down the toilet. Turning in time to see me stalking towards him he began backing out of the bathroom. Seizing my opportunity I jumped up so he was piggy backing me. trying to shake me off and not succeeding. Trying to reach over his broad shoulders for the remaining papers I was surprised when he turned me around so my legs were wrapped around his waist and he could look at my face.

"None of this matters baby cause im with you now. You are the most important thing to me and I don't want to be with her."

"Then why do you still have her letters tucked under your bed?"

"I don't know B maybe I I shoulda thrown them out but I didn't and im sorry"

Pouting I slid down and went to move away.

'I think I should go home now." Turning to pick up my bag Emmett's next words silenced me.

" I love you.."

"bu..bu..bu but your drunk.. I don't think you mean it" I replied

'Bella I love you" he said as he lowered his head to mine. Closing the gap between us he pressed his lips to mine.

We stood like that for what felt like hours. Holding each other close and kissing tenderly. Pushing me backwards to the bed Emmett pulled his shirt over his head and looked at me with the most intense look of lust in his eyes. Moving towards me, he stopped only to pull me shirt over my head before covering my body with his own. Feeling the heat of our skin touching I wanted to feel more. Moving my hands to his belt buckle, I released his pants and pushed them down with my foot. Hitching my skirt up Emmett maneuvered so he was lying between my legs. Kissing his way down my neck I moaned loudly when he yanked the cup of my bra down and took one of my nipples in his soft wet mouth. Trailing his hand down my body slowly while holding my hands oabove his head with the other I nearly cried out when I felt his fingers gain entrance. Pushing my panties to the side he began to rub slow circles over my clit causing me to spasm with pleasure. Looking at his face I knew I had to have him inside me.

Sliding down further on the bed I grabbed his hard cock and pushed it towards my opening. Rubbing myself against him for the much needed friction, I pushed my hips against him and moaned when I felt him enter me. Hitching my leg over his shoulder he began to move. Matching his thrusts I pushed my hips up until we both came seconds late. It was the best sex I had ever had. I wanted more.

Just like that Emmett had revealed his feelings for me. I couldn't believe we were at that point. It had taken me a week before I could say it back to him but wer had spent most of that time in bed whenever we could making up for the disastrous first time. We couldn't leave each other alone and I couldn't wait to show Emmett the surprise I had packed for our plane ride to NZ…

A/N the song I picked for this chapter is Alicia Keys "falling" I think it only goes to show. This story is kinda based on a true story and the way Emmett told Bella that he loved her is completely real!
