Kat Cullen

Chapter 12- life together

Seth's POV

"Seth go." Esme instructed.

"Bu-bu-but." I complained.

"Seth it's two am, go home." She laughed pushing me gently but firmly towards the door. I looked past her to the sleeping form of Kat on the coach.

It felt like I was being kicked out again.

"You can come back tomorrow but Sue will be worried about you. And Katrina needs to sleep." She smiled, the door half closed with me stood outside.

"Do you want me to take her upstairs?" I asked hopefully.

"Got her." Emmett sighed and I heard the fabric of the coach be moved softly and a small weight be lifted.

I sighed and tipped my head back as her heart beat moved further away, still easily heard though.

"Bye Seth." Esme finished closing the door on me.

"You're freezing Emmett." I heard Kat mutter sleepily.

"Sorry Kitty." I heard him laugh.

I hissed slightly at him, I already knew how much she hated that, in answer Emmett just laughed louder.

Sure enough I was back the next day to no-ones surprise but Kats, who was curled on the coach a book in her hands as Emmett teased her about her cute accent, (which could be hard to understand), but she seemed to have blocked out everything else around her as she read, I knelt down next to her and shifted her hand so I could read the title, she glanced up at me and smiled.

"1 sec." she sighed.

Romeo and Juliet.

"How can you read that?" I asked as she closed the book.

She shrugged her shoulders. "Trying to see which part of it interests Bella, I'm not up to that part apparently." She shrugged, with a warm smile. I literally bit my tongue then to stop myself blurting out the truth, Edwards head snapped around to look at me then at Kat worriedly, thinking about how she would react. I sighed loudly dipping my head. You do know I'll tell her sooner or later don't you? I thought to Edward. He nodded ever so slightly and grimaced.

"So do you want to go to Port Angelus?" I asked Kat.

Her eyes flickered towards Edward who was staring stubbornly at the TV trying to pretend he wasn't listening to every word of our conversation.

"She's not going anywhere." Edward snarled so quietly even I had trouble hearing.

"Or we could just hang around here?" I back peddled. Fast.

She nodded quickly seeming relieved, I smiled and sat down next to her one arm around her shoulders, I looked down at her, she looked so small and fragile.

"So…" I started very aware of Edwards's motionless figure. "Enjoying the weather?"

Edward made a noise like he was choking, while he tried not to laugh. What? It's the best I could come up with! You aren't helping though; you'll smash my brains in if I say anything 'inappropriate'. I defended. He nodded ever so slightly again.

"Um… it's fine? I guess." She smirked. "Is that the best you could come up with?"

I pretended to consider this for a moment before nodding. "Yep." I could hear Emmett laughing upstairs, probably aware of the two conversations I was having.
