If you were wondering about which song Bella sang last chapter, I decided on "Disturbia", because it sounds like a song Emmett would pick. EMMETT IS SECRETLY EVIL!!!

Take Your Kid to Work Day!

Carlisle POV

It was April 24th, which meant that the kids would be skipping school today and coming with me to the hospital. This will not go well…

I have no idea how, but Emmett somehow managed to get everyone else to sing along with him on the way to the hospital. It was a warm, yet still cloudy, day, so everyone's windows were down as we drove. (AN: the song's Dirty Little Secrets by the All American Rejects, I love this song!)

"Let me know that I've done wrong, when I've known this all along.

I go around a time or two, just to waste my time with you.

Tell me all that you've thrown away! Find out games you don't wanna play!

You are the only one that needs to know!

I'll keep you my dirty little secret.

Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret.

Who has to know?

When we live such fragile lives. It's the best way we survive."

We arrived at the hospital. Still singing. Ergh...

Everyone stared as we entered the building. WILL THEY SHUT UP ALREADY?

Edward must've heard my thoughts, because he motioned for Bella to quiet. Unfortunately, the others were still going at it.

"If you don't stop singing, you are all grounded for a month," I said at vampire speed. They shut up. THANK YOU!!!

I rounded them all up into my office. I closed the door and glared at them all. "This may be a different day than usual, but the hospital is still going to run like normal, so here are the guidelines. Do not do anything that may endanger someone's life. Do not leave anyone or anything scarred physically. Basically, don't hurt anyone, Emmett."

"What?" he yelped. "Why me? It was Jasper who tampered with that old dude's wheelchair back in '97."

"You dared me to!" he countered.

"Well, you were the one who actually did it!"

"But you were the cause for it!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"Was –"

"STOP IT!" I yelled. Parents have a hard time with teenagers during those few years, but imagine having six of them for several decades…

"I have to go do a surgery now. Remember, you are not to do anything that may harm somebody. Got it?" They all nodded. "Good. Edward's in charge."

Emmett started to protest, but I just held up my hand. "That's my final word." I really shouldn't leave them alone…

The surgery was done, and I headed back to my office. I paused. It was quiet – too quiet…I sprinted the rest of the hallway and burst into the office. They were gone. What the…?

CRASH! "Emmett, you idiot!" Rosalie shouted. Ah, there they were. I hurried to the lobby, where everyone there was staring. There was a hospital cart turned over on its side. Edward was shaking his head, Bella rubbing his arm. Jasper's arms were wrapped protectively around Alice as they huddled in a corner. Rosalie was trying to get Emmett down from Miss Walker's desk. And Emmett…oh, no. He found them. Last time this happened, he permanently traumatized nearly the entire town, and we had to leave ASAP. Not again…

"COTTON SWABS!" Emmett shouted. "I AM THE KING! FEAR ME! BOW DOWN TO ME OR FACE THE WRATH OF THE STICKS OF DEATH! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!"

A little ten-year-old boy wriggled out of his mother's arms. "You look weird!" he shouted.

Emmett stared down at him. "YOU DARE TO MOCK THE KING? DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He started hurling the cotton swabs at the kid, like javelins. They hit him, and he squealed as he ducked back behind his mother.

Another doctor came in. Evan Scott. I never really like him. Every time he came to my office, he looked at my photos of Esme a bit too much. "Hey, young man, get out of here right now, or I'll have to call security."

"NEVER! I RULE ALL OF YOU! BOW, I SAY, BOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Emmett chucked them at the Scott. Eh, I should stop Emmett now, I could make an exception for him.

"Hey, what the – ow, that hurt! Ooph, stop that! Ah! Ouch! Ack!" Scott ran out the door again.

Joy…I better stop this now before we all get kicked out. "Emmett McCarty Cullen, get down here!" I finally shouted.

"WHO IS THAT WHO MOCKS THE KING? BOW – oh, Carlisle, um, yeah…sorry." Emmett hopped off the table.

I glared at all the kids. "Everyone. My office. Now." The trudged after me as we headed to my office. As soon as we were in, I sighed.

"What happened?"

Edward started. "You left the office for the surgery, and Emmett wanted to walk around, so we all followed him to explore. First, he kept dashing into patients' rooms then running off before we could catch him. Then he rode the elevator up and down, over and over. Then we passed by a nurse pushing a hospital cart just next to the lobby, and Emmett bumped into her. The cart turned over, Rosalie shouted a bit, Emmett saw the cotton swabs and hopped onto the front desk, and, well, you know the rest."

I sighed. "Emmett, you know you're grounded, right?"

"Yes."

"And you have to clean up."

"…Fine."

Emmett had finished cleaning up the cotton swabs, and Esme showed up soon after. She scolded Emmett for a bit, then sighed.

"And it goes in one ear, out the other, won't it?" she muttered.

"I'm afraid so," I replied back.

Edward checked the clock. "Carlisle, your shift's over, we could all leave now."

I rubbed my forehead. "Yes, I suppose we should. Girls, Emmett, you wait in the lobby, Edward and Jasper, stay here." Esme, Bella, Alice, Rosalie and Emmett left, while Edward and Jasper stayed behind.

I ran my hand through my hair. "If something like this seems like it's going to happen next time, you have my permission to take all means necessary to restrain Emmett." They nodded, exchanging devious smiles. Should I…nah. I quickly packed up my briefcase, and we left.

Bella and Alice were arguing over the next shopping trip. Rosalie was scolding Emmett. And…Scott was talking to Esme. My Esme. She looked uncomfortable.

"She is uncomfortable," Edward muttered.

"Yes," Jasper agreed. "And that doctor is feeling some very inappropriate feelings."

"He's having very inappropriate thoughts, too," Edward added. "He…is thinking about taking her somewhere unoccupied by other people.

Okay, Carlisle, calm down, you don't want to kill the human…actually, forget it, you do.

"Don't," Edward hissed. Jasper looked alarmed as he looked between Scott and me. I stalked over to Scott.

"Are you sure you don't want me to give you a ride home?" he asked. "Your kids can take care of themselves easily.

"I'm sure, and I'm waiting for my Carlisle, and my other sons," Esme replied. I wrapped my arm around her waist.

"Scott, what do you need?" I asked while giving him a warning look.

He glared back. "Nothing, I was just offering my services to your lovely wife." He smiled at Esme. "I hope we'll meet again."

Esme shrugged, then turned to me. "Let's go home." The kids drove the other cars back as Esme and I rode in my car.

Esme turned to me. "Carlisle, you don't need to worry about anything. I'd never be interested in a person like him."

"You should've heard his thoughts," I muttered. "Edward said…"

Esme took my hand. "If it makes you feel better, he seemed very desperate."

I smiled. I pulled the car into the garage, and we entered the house. Something felt off…

I heard Emmett's voice again. "COTTON SWABS!!!" Not again…

I love jealous Carlisle, it's so funny because he's usually so calm and composed, then someone shows the slightest bit of interest in Esme and he freaks out. XD x infinity. I saw the Twilight movie, it was AWESOME!!! I posted up my favorite quotes from the movie on my profile. I was there with some friends, because one of them was having a birthday party there, and she gave us each a Twilight movie poster in our goodie bags. I taped mine to my ceiling, right above my bed. I told my mom I was going to, but she never thought I really would…XD. Remember, reviews = happy me = quicker updates!
