Ya'll ready for some random, weird and just plain stupid chapter? No? TOO BAD! If this is too stupid and random for ya, then just skip over it. The next chapter will be up soon!
No, honestly. This chapter has absolutely no point, and has no reason for existence. Too bad it's already posted here.
This is the last time Emmett picks the game they play…
Mixed Up, Matched Up
and just plain confusing
Emmett came bounding into the room. Yes, bounding. It's scary to watch. It burns. Just not as much as watching him dance to Temperature.
"Who wants to play a little game?"
"Sure." (Bella)
"Okay!" (Yours truly!)
"Why not?" (Carlisle)
"No." (Rosalie)
"That depends." (Edward)
"HECK NO!!" (Jasper)
"Jasper! Language!" Esme looked at him sternly before turning to face Emmett. "What's your little game?" She said while smiling. Emmett grinned and rubbed his hands together evilly. Bella and I stood, slowly inching our way to the door.
"You're not going anywhere!" He pointed at both of us. "Sit." Bella gulped and sat down next to Edward as I made my way over to my still sour husband. (It's a picture Jazzy! Get over it!)
"The game Emmett?" Edward prodded. Emmett just stood there. I wasn't sure what to think of this.
"Oh yeah! I'll be right back." With that, he dashed out of the room. Bella began to shake next to Edward, if the temperature in the room was below zero. The again, she was sitting right next to Edward, and his body temperature wasn't that warm...
"Bella? What's wrong?" I asked, giving to poor human girl a worried look.
"I'm….scared……I mean, it's Emmett. Aren't you afraid?" She whispered, as if Emmett would pop out of the couch cushion beneath her. (He has once before, and the poor girl would have peed herself had she not used the bathroom facilities prior to sitting on the couch.)
"Yes." Everyone in the room chorused together. Who isn't afraid of Emmett and his games?
"Here we go!" Emmett had reappeared into the room with hats in his hands. He walked over to Esme. "Reach in a take a name! One per person!"
Reluctantly, Esme reached into the hat, pulling out a single slip of paper. She unfolded it and read whatever was written on it out loud, giving it a brow-furrowing look as she did so.
"Jasper?" We all looked up at Emmett as he walked toward his wife, his mouth in a hard line as he tried not to laugh.
Rosalie rolled her eyes and drew a name "Carlisle."
Emmett continued his little routine, finally stopping at Bella and I. I pulled out at "Edward" which could only mean…
"Emmett." Bella spoke quietly. We all looked up at Emmett.
"So what's the point of this?" I asked him. He snickered and put the hat down.
"Say hello to your new husbands!"
What the h-e-double toothpicks? This was his game? Assigning us a new husband? I shot a quick glance at Bella, who was mortified. I feel so bad for you Bella!
"What. The. He- eck." Edward said as he sat there, catching himself before he swore, getting an approving glance from Esme. He and Rosalie glared at Emmett who merely shrugged.
Everything stopped for a minute when I had a vision. It was short, but I think it was worth it.
Bella swung a bat at Emmett's head. He staggered and ran. The bat she was holding in her hands was cracked.
"I need a new bat!" She yelled.
The living room came back into focus. Most of my family stared at me, waiting for an explanation. I shook my head, trying to get rid of my evil smile. I also blocked the memory from Edward; he just has to wait like the rest of us!
Bella cracked one of her knuckles and narrowed her eyes at Emmett. She stood up and smiled.
"Hey Alice? Can you get me a bat?" Emmett perked up.
"Are we playing baseball?" Her smile widened.
"I guess you could call it that." Now that I knew what she meant, I smiled and ran out of the room.
When I came back into the room, nothing had changed much. Most of my family was still glaring at Emmett who had a goofy grin on his face.
"Here you go Bella." She reached and took the bat, never taking her eyes off of Emmett. I think I saw her wink at me. I laughed quietly, receiving a couple nervous glances from my family.
"Thank you Alice. So are you ready to play Emmett?"
"Wha-" He didn't have time to finish. Bella swung the bat, she would have hit him to if he didn't move. He ran out of the room at human speed with Bella on his heels.
The sound of aluminum hitting marble echoed through the first floor, followed by a sudden,
"I need a new bat!" I bolted out of the room, smiling deviously, now part of the greater scheme of things.
"I want to play too!" I cackled, yes I cackled!
Soon my whole family joined, even Esme and Carlisle. We may have gone through a lot of bats, but it was worth it in the end.
Emmett is no longer allowed to pick out the games that we play anymore. Ever.
And I still didn't understand the point of the game. I don't think anyone did.
I don't even understand the game, and I was the one who came up with it. What does that say about me?
Wow, that has to be one of the stupidest chapters so far. Oh well. That's Emmett for ya. I guess.
The next chapter is funny. (Well I think it is.)
