I'm sorry that I kept you all waiting for so long. But I'm starting to get really busy. I'm trying to update as soon as I can.
Thank you.
Enjoy!
Chapter nine: more problems
The following days were simply a mess. Carlisle and I were busy with keeping Emmett pleased and healthy. Thanks to Nessie we were aware of what Emmett needed as a human. Bella did the cooking stuff because she was the one who could cook the best; she had always cooked for her dad and herself in her humanlife. Carlisle gave us orders so we could know what Emmett needed and what he didn't. I tried to be around Emmett as much as I could, even though if his scent was calling me, I was his wife. I was glad that Emmett was progressing; he was recovering from his unexpected transformation. He didn't anymore sleep as much as before and he also ate more. The pain was getting less and walking was no problem for him anymore. I was really happy seeiing him getting better, but my worries never faded for a second.
Jasper and Edward were thinking of a strategy plan to meet the Volturi again. I was getting annoyed but we had no choice. We didn't want to fight them or causing any trouble for that matter because it wouldn't end well. I tried to push that thought away from me, Emmett's health was more important now. Jasper and Edward didn't want to involve the wolves at first, but Jacob insisted on helping us. They asked Carlisle for his opinion. Carlisle was about to agree but then decided it would be better if the wolves stayed at home with Renesmee. He thought the Volturi might feel threatened if we brought a whole group with us. It would also be better for Alice because she couldn't see the future when wolves were involved and Renesmee would be protected because Edward and Bella didn't want her to come along even though she really wanted to. Bella and Edward convinced her to stay, saying it would be better the less people would go.
Alice and Esme were busy with the rest. They were planning what to pack and they even tried to communicate with some other covens, trying to find out if they knew something about this problem. Unfortunately, there was no coven - except for the Volturi of course - who knew about this. We had first plans to visit them and ask them if they want to join us to meet the Volturi but Carlisle didn't want to involve any coven with this. "The Volturi might get angry if we take too much vampires to Italy. The last thing we want is to anger the Volturi. I doubt if Emmett would survive a fight," were his exact words.
'How do you feel?' I asked Emmett sweetly after he woke up from his nap. Carlisle said that the more rest Emmett takes the more quick he would recover from his transformation. I stroked Emmett's dark curls out his face, barely touching his light tinted, soft skin with my white, granite one.
'As usual,' Emmett replied. His voice wasn't as hoarse as before anymore.
I smiled at his voice, it sounded like music into my ears.
'I've got a headache, though not as bad as before,' Emmett shivered at the thought of the awful headaches he had suffered. 'And my muscles hurt just a little bit. I guess I'm almost fine.'
'Well, that's good,' I said happily. I couldn't wait until Emmett was in perfect shape again. 'I guess that it's time for your lunch. I'm going downstairs to make a nice meal for you,' I stood up and smiled at his beautiful face. It made me really happy that Emmett was better. At least he didn't have a rare disease or something.
'Okay, but not too much. I'm not that hungry.'
We both grinned at the thought of the meals Esme made for him. You could feed a whole family with it and Emmett always tried to eat everything, just to make Esme happy. Esme even thought that it wasn't enough and made even more, the poor kid got a stomachache and almost threw everything up last night.
'Don't worry, I will make a meal for you,' I hesitated for a moment. 'Well, at least I'm gonna try.'
Emmett chuckled quietly as I walked out of the room. I walked in a slow vampire pace down the staircase. 'Where's Carlisle?' I asked when I walked into the kitchen were Esme, Alice and Bella were sitting.
'He's doing some research in his offish,' Esme replied.
I nodded in response and opened the refrigerator. Carlisle did a lot research but the only thing he had ever found was the book written by the Volturi. It kinda worried me that there was nothing more to find then that.
I looked surprised up when Esme laid her hand on mine. 'Dear, I will make Emmett's lunch, don't worry,' she said motherly to me. 'Go upstairs and don't worry.'
'I'm fine, mother,' I answered. 'And besides, Emmett will die if you make another big meal for him.'
Everyone chuckled in the kitchen including me.
'And you know that whatever you say I will never stop worrying about my husband. Nobody knows what is going on and no any other coven has ever heard about this. Even Carlisle is surprised and Carlisle is living on this planet for centuries now. The only thing that can stop make me worry is Emmett becoming a vampire again. But we can't because the poison isn't working.'
'Rose?' I turned my head to look at Bella who looked a little bit nervous at me.
'Yes, Bella?' I answered her, feeling a little bit uncomfortable. I shared a short glance with Jasper and within no time the room was filled with love and calmness. I relaxed.
'Well, what... er... what would you...' Bella intertwined her fingers together nervously and took a deep breath. 'I know you're worrying about Emmett's health and that kind of stuff, and I know that you want him to be a vampire again... but... What would you do if you were in Emmett's place?' Bella didn't dare to look at me. She looked down at the table as if she had done something bad.
I was a little bit overwhelmed by her question. We all know that I longed for children. Nobody had asked me that question yet and to be honest, I hadn't really thought about that yet. I wanted to be there for Emmett and not humming about me being in his place. I knew that in that condition I could never be pregnant, it wouldn't be healthy for the baby. But Emmett was getting better so I would be getting better too. Then I could have the baby I've always wanted... But on the other side, I would die giving birth because the poison wasn't working.
'I... I don't know,' I finally said. 'I mean, I wouldn't surive labor if the poison doesn't work.'
Bella looked up at me, slightly relieved that I wasn't angry with her question. Alice and Esme shivered when I said "die in labor".
'And I don't want a baby from anyone else then Emmett. But on the other side, I think we would find a solution to that,' I sighed and turned around to make a lunch for Emmett. 'But I'm not the human. Emmett is, so we have to concentrate on him, not on me.'
It was quiet for a moment and suddenly Alice's face went blank; she was having a vision. I wondered what she saw because suddenly Alice started at me, horror filling her eyes. My eyes widened.
'Alice?' I whispered.
Alice looked from me to the living room to me again.
'N... No!' she suddenly shouted. 'No Emmett don't do it!' She flew up so quickly her chair fell on the ground. 'EMMETT!' she screamed.
'Alice? Alice, what in the name of Carlisle is going on?' I shouted confused and scared after her. I followed her to the living room with the rest behind me. Then I saw it. I heard a muffle scream and I smelled the most delicious scent ever; Emmett's blood. I gasped and shrieked when I saw Emmett, falling of the staircase. I rushed to him to catch him but was less than a second too late. I heard Carlisle coming from his offish and several gasps behind me.
I let myself fall on my knees and slapped Emmett's face lightly like I had done in the woods. 'Emmett? Emmett, say something!' I cried. I smelt his blood but this time I ignored it. I didn't even think about drinking it. 'Emmett, wake up!'
But I was too late. Emmett was unconscious and that wasn't even the worst part.
He didn't have a heartbeat.
Soo... that was chapter nine!
I hope you liked it and I would love to hear your opinion about it!
Thank you.
