A/N: sorry for not updating sooner – my computer got a virus, I still have a bit of a virus left, but not much and it deleted most of my files.
But I also am working on this alone for a bit. I did have the help of a good friend Vicky, but we sorta got out of writing and now here it is, they will be shorter then normal because I am working on my own. I am gonna try and update twice a week.
Enjoy.
Emmett
An angry Edward, Alice, and Rosalie showed up as the large wolf left. I stood up looking at her blood, I felt so bad. I sighed before looking at Edward's car. I couldn't believe that a wolf did that – he was surely going to kill me when he can. I looked over at Rosalie – she actually liked Shawn? I was kinda confused, but I looked at the blood on my hand. I wasn't sure about anything.
"I told you so" Edward sighed.
I rolled my eyes. 'What do you want me to say you're right?"
"No, but Shawn is hurt"
"I didn't notice" I held up my blood stained hand.
I heard a howl – then I saw Sam in front of me, he looked kinda angry, but he had some sort of understanding on his face. I could only hope he understood how upset I was over this. I knew I should've listened to Edward – but I wanted to make out so badly.
"Emmett" Sam said coldly. "We need you to see the injuries on Shawn – but there one thing, you can't touch her...at all"
"What?" I said confused.
He sighed. "She can't do certain things now – and I think you should see the damage"
"Who can come?" I asked.
"All of you, Alice you may touch her seeming as you are her closest friend" He advised. "You may not pass messages for Emmett – he is going to have to live with his consequence"
That wasn't fair; I couldn't even say I was sorry, I couldn't even kiss her. And yet Alice was allowed. I don't understand these people. We were running – Sam in wolf form, and us running along his side. When we arrived, I saw Emily helping lift off the blood stained shirt. I could feel sorrow wash over me, it looked so horribly painful. Alice's hand went to her mouth in shock – even Rosalie was shocked.
I looked at Sam; they slid on someone else's shirt. Emily walked through the house before dropping it into the washer. Sam walked in, and the first one to jump in front of Shawn was Paul – the hot tempered one. He looked beyond angry. I felt a pang of guilt.
"Alice?" Shawn was bouncing. "Paulina move pleaseeee"
"Paulina?" Sam asked curiously.
Paul growled. "Stop calling me that"
"You said you would dress up as Madonna though" Shawn whined. "That isn't fair!"
I stifled my laughter, I was happy to see she still had her personality. I was happy that she was still amazingly beautiful as well. Her hair was the same color, her eyes still a beautiful Blue Hazel. She was still bouncing on the heels of her feet. Seth walked in holding her iPod.
"Here is your iPod Miss Shawn" Seth looked at me with a death glare as he passed it to her.
"Thank god" She snatched it away from her. "Now I get to listen to something hip-hop"
"Hey I tried to get you to listen to my music but no" Jacob rolled his eyes before playfully shoving her.
"Whoa," She giggled. "I am n o t a three days grace fan!"
"It's hip hop though" He retorted.
"No it's emo music! Do you slit your wrists?" She asked curiously.
"Shawn" Sam sighed. "Emily, what did you feed her?"
"CANDY!" She yelled before doing a single handed cartwheel.
Paul grabbed her before she fell, she giggled. He sighed. "Not to mention the painkillers – so she is drugged"
"I am not on drugs!" She squealed. "I am just heavily medicated"
"Same deal short-stuff"
I looked at how well she fit in, everyone treated her like family, was this part of my punishment, to see how happy she was here. I tried to hold back the urges I was having for her – every part of her. She looked at the clock before bouncing into the kitchen, passing everyone a piece of candy then she bounced over, hugging Alice, she didn't even look at me, she hugged Edward gently. Who just hugged her carefully.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
"I got candy – so I am just fucking peachy" She was bouncing on her heels.
"Are they treating you alright?" Alice asked.
"They're mutts Alice"
"In the night I hear 'em talk, The coldest story ever told, Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul. To a woman so heartless...How could you be so heartless... oh. How could you be so heartless?" She sang dancing around.
"Sorry," Sam apologized for Shawn. "One of the side effects – we didn't know she had a low tolerance to medication so it makes her extremely hyper"
Shawn was dancing around before listening to her iPod, she twirled into a Seth, blushed then kept dancing around in circles, I was staring at her. Can't touch, can't talk to, then what can I do?
"Emmett, this is partly your fault"
I looked at him confused. "It's not my fault that she has a low tolerance for medication"
"No, that she needs the medication to not be in pain"
I looked down; you could say I feel extremely bad; I could've just pleased them instead of myself. How the hell did Edward deal with the burning in the throat every time they kissed? I saw Shawn land on the couch, merely missing Seth's lap, he held is arm out, breaking the fall for her back.
"Remember Shawn, you can't sit back" He sighed.
"It sucks!" She squealed. "I want my teddy bear"
I could be her teddy bear, but I am just the vampire who hurt her by trying to protect her, which didn't work out too well, since now she is on medication, in hopes of helping her. But it ended up being a bad thing that I was over protective. She didn't need to be taken care of – she knew how to take care of herself, but right now she was so weak and vulnerable that it was scary.
"So, Seth, do you like gummy worms?" Shawn asked.
"Love em"
"Me too" She giggled.
He chuckled. "You really need to take those pain pills more often"
"No shanks you" She giggled.
"Alrightio smartio" He hugged her shoulders.
They even talked like they had known each other for all their lives. I felt another pang – but this was jealousy. If only Jasper were here to make me feel okay with all this. But he is out hunting – because he needs it. Emily was looking at Shawn as if she was a child – it only made me happy that she was happy. But the sad part was that she wasn't happy with me. I wanted her to be happy with me.
"Show him the damage" Sam instructed.
"Trust me okay Shawn?" Seth murmured into her forehead.
She giggled. "Okay"
He helped her up, before turning her the other way, her back facing us, and he slowly lifted the shirt, exposing the long, big cut that was just exactly seventeen inches, but it almost filled up the whole entire space on her back. He whispered something in her ear and she curled her back and it moved with her, as she straightened and arched it. It moved with her like a ripple in the water's current.
For once. I felt sick to my stomach.
