Sry I havn't updated in a while. I am on vacation in Williamsburg Virginia!!! So here is the next chap!!! So about that whole… "I'm asking him tonight thing"…
It won't b what u expected… u guys r expecting an explanation from emmet and I have no idea whatsoever what to do… so I will be back.
Enjoy!
We arrived at a huge mansion, a white one. Like some of the ones on Lake Drive (A/N: a VERY busy road in Milwaukee, with lots of expensive mansions), but this one is bigger! How is that even possible?
Emmet grabbed my hand and walked me forward. It wasn't awkward at all. I knew it should have been but it felt right to have my hand in his. Not as if we were in love, but we loved each other like a family. Like he were my brother. Yes, that's it! Like he was my brother! I felt proud having figured that out. The only thing now was, Why?
I heard Alice's trilling laugh from behind us. Emmet was kind of excited, so he started to laugh. Once he started to laugh, I couldn't help but laugh myself.
We finally reached the door. He barged right in like he was the king of the entire world. That just made me laugh harder.
The living room was all white. Beautiful. There was no other way to put it. The couch held two people, one with mahogany curls and the other with un-tamed bronze hair that I recognized. The floor contained a play station 3, blonde haired boy, a big lanky strong looking black haired boy, and a beautiful girl, with chocolate brown eyes and the same hair type as Bella, but had bronze hair. Their daughter? Maybe.
On the love seat, there was the most beautiful girl that I had ever seen. She beat the brown-eyed girl, but just barely. Emmet ran over to her, and kissed her on the cheek. Her gold hair flowing from her gorgeous pale face. Meanwhile, Alice ran over and kissed the blonde haired boy.
"Sophie, this is Jasper," Emmet pointed to the blonde haired boy on the ground, "this is Renesme but we call her Nessie," Alice pointed to the beautiful girl with brown eyes, "This is Jacob," Nessie said, seeming proud, "And lastly, this is my beautiful girlfriend, Rosalie." The beautiful blonde smiled up at me. I felt like she wanted my approval with her smile more than my friendship, but that was okay. I would make her my friend.
Meeting the family had gone well. Emmet broke the tension that was covering us at first with the funniest thing I had ever heard. He was making fun of Jacob for being a, "mutt" and I couldn't stop laughing. Everyone couldn't stop laughing at my funny laughing so we stood there for at least thirty minutes just laughing. I couldn't stop, I just kept going until my stomach hurt so bad that I was panting/laughing at the same time on the floor. I found out so much about this family. Rosalie wanted to be my best friend, I could tell, but I didn't know why. She seemed like a nice enough person, so I immediately loved her. Alice… well… she will be Alice! She was basically jumping up and down on her stilettos with grace the entire time. Jasper and Jacob were fighting it out on the play station while Nessie cheered them on. Bella and Edward just sat on the couch, staring into each other's eyes. they really loved each other. I wish I could be like them someday, happy and in love. Emmet and I talked for a while, and I realized he was a lot like me, not my façade that I showed people, but the real me. The not-broken me. He had shown a part of me that I didn't even know existed anymore.
Eventually, Esme came out from wherever she was hiding, and said to me, "Sophia, you are welcome in our home anytime you want. Let me show you to your bed room. Anyone who is close to Bella is close to us.
And that is where I am now. Crying on my bed I am so happy.
I was laying in MY room on the third floor. It had a beautiful bed, with a black bed spread. Aparently this used to be Edward's room, but now it held a dresser, a bed, a HUGE walk-in closet, a desk with a computer, and a very comfortable chair.
Esme had a room all ready for me.
It was the room of my dreams.
It had black and blood red swirls on the walls with white in the background. One of the walls was all glass and I could see everything from there. A stereo with CD's by every classical composer I had grown up with and loved, Linkin Park, Evanescence, Three Days Grace, Three Doors Down, Within Temptation, and Blink 182 all lined up in my favorite order.
I cried the moment I saw this room, and now I never wanted to leave it.
I pulled my ipod out of my purse and I put it on shuffle. Nothing exciting was playing , just some Linkin Park and Three Days Grace for a while. Then, my song came up. My song, the song that made me cry, not tears of joy, but tears of sorrow. Listening to the lyrics always reminded me of Ma and Pa. I hadn't heard this song since before grandma died, and now I had no shoulder to cry on.
It was by Evanescence.
It was called My Immortal.
Yhaaaaaaaaaaaa...
I'm so tired of being here
Suppresed by al l my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just to much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you screamed I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held you hand through all of these years
But you still have,
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just to much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your tears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have,
All of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that your gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have,
All of me
Meeeeeea…
Meeeeeea…
Meeeeeea…
The tears silently streamed down my face.
I needed to find a piano, and fast. I needed to let the notes stream from my fingers, to let the pain be released. To forget everything and play.
It was 1am, and since Esme had been kind enough, she called Charlie to see if I was able to sleep over. Of course, he said yes. I had seen a piano earlier, and I needed to get to it. Now. Everyone is asleep, so no one will hear me.
I crept down the stairs. Everything was dark and quiet.
I'm safe. No one will hear me.
I found the beautiful Baby Grande and sat down.
The music began to flow. I closed my eyes, and I sang.
Yhaaaaaaaaaaaa...

When I turned around, Emmet was there. "That was beautiful Sophie. I didn't know you had so much talent."
"Did you hear the whole thing?"
"Yes, and I couldn't have said it better myself."
His familiar smile showered down on me, and through my tears, I managed a small smile back. A small, weak smile, if that. But a smile still.
The look on his face told me everything I needed to know.
That everything was alright, that everything was going to get better eventualy.
I got up,
walked over to him,
and I cried.
(AN: Right here was where I was GOING to stop…)
After what must have been an hour of crying into Emmet's arms, I looked over the eventful day, the eventful week really.
Grandma had died. If I thought to hard about this, I wouldn't be able to hold myself together very well.
Bella took me in. Foster care did'nt turn out so bad.
I met Alice. Enough said for this cute little energetic pixie of a girl. There were so many weird things about her family. But why they were like that I don't know.
I met Emmet, a big teddy bear. A cuddly and cold, gold eyed, beautiful, pale, person who reminded me of someone in a picture. Someone who had saved me from one of my worst nightmares. Someone who seemed to actually care and not fake it. Someone who seemed to be a good person to the core. Someone who was… different.
But why?
I remembered my promise to myself to ask tonight…
"Emmet?"
"Yes Sophia?" Okay, that was getting annoying. No more "Sophia". I no longer want to be formal with him and only him.
"It's Soph,"
His bright smile shinned brighter than I had ever scene it. Like I had just made his year. Not just his day.
"Yes Soph?"
"Why is your family so… different?" I didn't know it was possible, but somehow, his face just got paler.
"Well…"
Yes, I know that My Immortal was in here twice, but it is an important song to the plot!!! So make sure u STUDY THOSE WORDS!!! U might see them again soon… I need to make sure tht u guys get the message in the end… so next chap she might find out, she might not… I don't kno yet. But this I do know: I am SOO SOOO SOOOO sorry for the cliffy!!!
Dear readers:
Okay I know this might be a little formal but please please stick with me here. I know that the volturi are going to be a problem eventually but right now please concentrate on this. The volturi are never going to be a part of this story. I know that. If I do a sequal perhaps, but right now I am concentrating on the "romance" part. That is all I am saying. The more reviews the faster the updates will come!!! But there might not be an update for a while because I have writers block!!!! So if u have ideas, please leave them in reviews! Thanx!
Please review!!!!!!
