I wake up to see Emmett shaking me awake,
" Yes Love" I say as I sit up as Emmett places a pair of jeans on my lap, I get dressed,
" Bella is here and so is the family" He says as I put on the leather jacket Alice had gotten me a while back, I walked down the stairs to see the whole Cullen Coven
waiting for both Emmett and I,
" You all know what Edward wants. And you know what I want. But I won't force myself on you." Bella says as Emmett holds me close, all of the Cullen's surround
Bella. Edward sits off to the side as Bella addresses them.
" I think the only fair way to handle this is by vote -" Bella says as Edward looked a bit tired of this,
" You can't be serious" Edward says as Bella looks at him firmly,
" This is my meeting, Edward." She says before Edward, frustrated, sits back. She faces the family again.
Poor Edward I thought to myself,
" However this turns out, I'm not letting the Volturi hurt you. I'll go back to Italy alone." Bella says as Emmett smirks at her,
" The hell you will. I'm not missing another fight." Emmett says as I lean on his chest,
" That's not up for a vote, Emmett. I don't want you involved." Bella tells my Imprint as I just relax on his body,
" We've always been involved, honey, and we're not going to stop" Esme starts but Bella places her hand up slightly.
" No, please - I want you to seriously think about this. If I join you, you'll be stuck with me for a long time - forever. It's a huge decision. And I want - I need your
honesty here." Bella says as the Cullens nod or otherwise communicate agreement.
" Then let's take a vote... Alice?" Bella asked as she then jumps up and hugs Bella.
" Like you're not already my sister. Of course, yes!" Alice says as she goes back to Jasper, Bella smiles. Jasper rises, but keeps his distance.
" I vote yes. It'll be a relief not to want to kill you." Jasper smiles at her,
" Um. Thanks? Okay, Rosalie?" Bella asked as she looks at Rose who looked torn, looks at Edward who's stony toward her.
"Edward, I'm sorry for what I did. I really am. And I know you're not ready to forgive me..." Rose says as she looked at her brother, then she looks at Bella,
" But this isn't the life I'd have chosen for myself. I wish there'd been someone to vote no for me..." Rose says as she looks at her adoptive father,
" So... no.' Rose says before Bella looks at my Imprint, Emmett bounds over and lifts Bella into a bear hug. I hold myself back as Emmett then holds me.
" I vote hell yeah. We can pick a fight with these Volturi some other way." Emmett says before kissing my cheek,
" Jace?" She asked as I looked at her, remembering that I almost attacked her,
" Is this what you really want Bella?" I asked with real interest,
'" I want to spend the rest of my life with this family" She says as I smiled at her, I hug my Emmett.
" Then I vote yes" I say as she smiles at me, Esme approaches and embraces Bella warmly.
" I already think of you as part of the family. Yes." Esme says as she looks at the Swan girl,
" Thank you, Esme." Bella says as I see Carlisle moves, not to Bella, but to his son,
" Edward" Carlisle says calmly as Edward looks at his father figure.
" You can't go along with this, Carlisle, you know what it means." Edward tells him, but I can see the solemn look on the father clear as day,
" You've chosen not to live without her, which leaves me no choice. I won't lose my son." Carlisle says before he turns to Bella,
" But Alice has never turned anyone. It'd be safer if I did it" Carlisle says as I soon hear the front door suddenly slams. Edward's gone. Bella blanches but turns to the
family.
"Thank you. Thank you all." She says before walking out after Edward, I watched as the two get into his car and go.
" What's going on in your mind Jace, my Koi?" Emmett asked as I just lay my head on his chest,
" Let's go for a walk love" I say as he smiles,
" Yes mam" He says as we begin to walk outside.
" Emmett you mean the world to me" I say as he holds me close, it is midday time as I see the clouds in the sky blocking out the sun, I soon hear a howl, Jacob's
howl,
" Do you need to leave Koi?" He asked as I shake my head,
" No it's just Jacob" I say as I feel Emmett's arms around my waist,
" Jace you are my Moon, my light my way to live" He says as he steps into a sun ray, his sun is shining like millions of diamonds are embedded into his skin.
" Beautiful" I said in awe of his handsome face and his slightly exposed chest, I place my hands on him and feel his lips on my neck,
" It's because of you that I wish to live" He says as I smile, I feel his lips on my very own, I kiss back as I wrap my arms around him, feeling his body on my own as
he pulls my body to his, it felt so right, I felt my inner wolf howling in happiness.
" You have no idea what you do to me Emmett" I say as he smirks at me before taking my cheeks in his hands and pressing my lips to his again, and did I mind, hell
no.
" I have a feeling that I do baby" He says as I relax against his chest as I place my head there, he means so much to me it's unbelievable, but it's true, I am utterly
in love with Emmett Cullen.
