Chapter Nine
Once we get back to the Cullen's, Edward goes in to distract everyone while Emmett and I sneak Brandon up the back steps.
"You know when I pictured myself sneaking into a girl's house it wasn't because she didn't want me to be eaten by her fanged family" he says.
"You picture sneaking into girl's houses?" Emmett asks.
Brandon blushes, "no I was just saying…"
"Will you two shut up for a minute, I can't hear if Edward gave us the okay" I say.
I stay silent for a minute and wait until I hear Edward give the okay.
"Alright lets go" I say.
We walk quietly up the steps and I shove Brandon into my room before closing the door.
"Okay, so what now?" Emmett asks.
"Now I pack because Wes is coming to get me soon. While you get Brandon some clothes and whatever he might need" I say.
"And how do propose I get all these clothes into the house. If you haven't noticed we aren't exactly the same size" he says.
"I don't know but he can't be in here naked" I say.
"I don't mind, especially if you're going to be here" Brandon says with a wink in my direction.
I blush and he laughs, watching as my cheeks heat up bright pink.
"Alright, because of that statement you are going to be the most dressed guy ever to walk the earth" Emmett says.
"Aw, you're no fun" Brandon says with mock sadness.
"I'm trying to stop the fun before I end up a flipping uncle" Emmett says.
"I'm going to pack my bathroom now before this conversation goes any further" I say.
Emmett leaves and Brandon looks around the room, while I pack up my bathroom.
"So Mia…"
"What?" I ask.
"Are you and Emmett a...um...are you two…."
"We aren't dating if that's what you're trying to ask. He's just a really protective big brother, plus he has Rosalie" I say.
"So you two aren't like...you know...seeing each other behind her back?" he asks.
"What? No, Emmett is like a big brother to me. Plus that blonde spawn of the devil already has it in for me" you say.
"So you're single?" Brandon asks.
I come out of the bathroom, one eyebrow raised in question.
"What's with all the relationship questions?" I ask.
"Oh..no reason...I was just curious. So if you and Emmett aren't then are you and that other guy?" he asks.
"Edward? Edward's heart belongs completely and utterly to Bella" I say.
"Good to know" Brandon says.
"If you say so" I say shrugging before going into my closet.
Brandon watches as I pack everything up into a suitcase and zip it shut.
"Are you going to be able to come back every once in a while?" he asks.
"I should be able to, but if not then just tell Emmett or Edward what you need. They'll help you and if you need to reach me, you can tell them and they'll get the message to me"I say
he nods and there is a knock on the door before it opens. Edward pokes his head in.
"Wes is here" he says.
"Okay, I"ll be down in a minute" I say.
He nods before closing the door and I turn to Brandon.
"Remember be quiet and stay out of sight" I say.
"I know, this isn't my first time hiding from someone" he says.
With that I open the door and make my way downstairs, where everyone is waiting to say goodbye.
"Ready to go?" Wes asks.
"Yeah, I got everything" I say.
I turn to Carlisle and Esme.
"Thank you both for letting me stay in your home. I know it wasn't easy and I wasn't the best guest. But thank you, you have both taught me alot" I say.
"Oh, I'm going to miss you Mia" Esme says pulling me into a hug.
"I'll miss you too" I say.
"Remember Mia, you are welcomed anytime. No matter what happens you will always have a home here" Carlisle says.
I turn to Alice and Jasper next, Jasper sticks out his hand and I shake it. Alice pulls me into a hug.
"Don't let them change your incredible fashion sense. I didn't do all that shopping when you first got here to let it go down the drain" she says.
I laugh, "don't worry I won't."
Edward steps forward and I smile at him.
"Thank you for everything Edward and tell Bella I'm sorry about before" I say.
"I'll let her know" he says.
I turn to look at Rosalie.
"See ya blondie" I say.
"See ya mutt" she says with a slight smile.
I wave at all of them and Wes grabs my bags, we walk out and pile it all into his car. Once we start driving I realize I never said goodbye to Emmett. Just as this thought hits me, Emmett comes roaring down the path in his jeep. He stops as soon as he sees that I'm in the car with Wes. Wes pulls over and looks at me.
"Go say goodbye" he says.
I nod and open my car door, running to Emmett. He wraps me up in one of his bear hugs.
"Leaving without saying goodbye" he says.
"Never" I say.
"I'm going to miss you Wolfe, you're my partner in crime" he says.
"I'm going to miss you too Emmett" I say the tears was fighting back rising to the surface.
"Don't cry Wolfe, you know I'm only a phone call away. That's what all best friends say right?" he says.
"I know but you're more than my best friend Em...you're my brother" I say.
"Well this big brother is always going to have your back, one phone call Mia. That's all it takes, one phone call and I'll come get you treaty be damned" he says.
"And start a vampire werewolf war while you're at it" I chuckle.
"Hey, if that's what it takes" he says.
I laugh again and pull away, "I'll see you around."
"Count on it Wolfe, you're not getting rid of me that easily" he says with a wink.
I get back into Wes's car and we pull away. I knew Emmett would always be on my side, I take a deep breath and prepare myself for the return to the reserve.
I watch as she hugs the big bloodsucker and for a reason I can't explain I felt a stab of jealousy. Why was I jealous? I didn't even know this girl, she was the enemy. But then why did I feel like I should have been the one hugging her? I shake my head to clear my thoughts and follow them as they drive away.
