Here's another chapter. It's not my best, I'm really tired and not well, but I still wanted to give you guys something to read : )
The drive to Forks was uneventful, Emmett drove while Elijah sat in the back playing with his toys and watching the portable DVD player and I sat in the passenger seat wondering what I had gotten myself into. I knew that Emmett's parents were going to be angry with me I had been married to one son and had a child to their other. I made sure I rang my dad before just showing up on his door step. If I had done that he probably would have had a heart attack. We were pulling up in the Cullen's long driveway when Emmett broke me from my trance.
"Bells are you alright you seemed out of it most of the drive?" I turned to look at him instead of out the window which I had been looking out of for hours.
"I'm fine I just don't know how they're going to react to the news. You didn't tell them before we came did you?" Please say you did that way it might be a bit easier and they had time to cool off.
"No I couldn't do it over the phone." Damn it I really wish he had told them before this is just going to be like an ambush attack. We pulled up outside of the massive house I had spent a lot of my teenage years at. Emmett grabbed Elijah from the back seat and we made our way up to the front door. Emmett knocked and we didn't have to wait long until Carlisle answered the door.
"Emmett, Bella what a lovely surprise." Carlisle pulled us both into a hug.
"Come inside, I'll just go get Esme."
"You didn't tell them we were coming at all." I hissed at Emmett. He shook his head smiling sheepishly at me.
"Sorry Bella I wanted it to be a surprise for them." Just then Carlisle walked back in the room with Esme.
"Bella what are you doing here?" Esme wasn't as welcoming as Carlisle but I didn't blame her. I was about to speak when Emmett stepped in.
"Mum I have something to tell you and it involves Bella." He paused looking at me for confirmation that he could tell them.
"Go on son." He looked back at his parents.
"Well me and Bella came back here because we needed to tell you that Elijah is actually my son." Esme looked in between us trying to work out how Elijah could be Emmett's son and then it all fell in to place that I had had an affair with Emmett. I wasn't expecting her to do what she did next. She came over and slapped me across the face.
"You slept with my eldest son while married to my other son you little hussy. How could you? You hurt Edward so much and now on top of that your child is Emmett's and not Edwards like we all thought." I rubbed my check trying to get the feeling back. Emmett stood in front of blocking me from his mother's view.
"Mother you had no right to hit her. I was as much to blame in this as her. Now calm down we came to talk not yell. Anyway no matter what Elijah is your grandson whether he is mine or Edwards" I took a step to the side so I could see what was actually happening. Carlisle came forward to Emmett.
"May I hold Elijah son I haven't see him in over a year?" Emmett gladly handed Elijah to Carlisle. Carlisle was being calm and hadn't spoken a word, he was taking this in his stride and accepting Elijah no matter who his father was.
"Emmett how could you do this to your own brother, to me I raised you better than this and now look what you did." He looked down like any child who was being told off by their parents.
"I'm sorry mum it just happened ok we were drunk, but I don't regret it because if I didn't do then I would never have had Elijah. I love that little boy with all my heart mum." She looked at her grandson longing to hold him.
"I'm not accepting what you two did at all I'm still angry at you but I am not going to put my grandson in the middle of this." She walked over to Carlisle taking Elijah in her arms. She was all smiles to him even though she wasn't happy with me and Emmett. Emmett turned to me.
"Are you ok? I didn't know she was going to hit you. If I did I would have done this by myself." He said cupping the cheek Esme had slapped.
"I'm fine I'm just going to give her, her space." He nodded agreeing with me.
"Do you two have any place to stay?" Carlisle asked looking up from Esme and Elijah.
"Well I was hoping we could stay here but I don't think mum would be to happy with that." Esme glared at me telling me that Emmett was exactly right.
"Nonsense we have enough room, plus I want to spend some time with my grandson." Esme looked at Carlisle as though he was speaking a foreign language but didn't argue with him. All through the night Esme ignored me, she paid attention to Elijah and treated him no different compared to before we left. I could take her ignoring me, but if she treated Elijah badly then I would crack. Carlisle was pleasant and asked me what had happened in the last year. When we were already for bed Esme showed as our rooms. She thought she was being real smart when she said to me and Emmett that we would be sleeping in his old room. I wasn't going to argue I wasn't going to make this trip more uncomfortable for them than it already was.
I walked into the room putting Elijah's pack and play together so he could be put to bed instead of sleeping in Emmett's arms. Emmett laid him down and gave him a kiss on the forehead before turning to me.
"Bella I'll go talk to her there's plenty of other rooms for me to sleep in, she's just being a bitch."
"Emmett don't say that she's your mum no matter what and it's fine honestly I'm not going to let it bother me if she thinks it is she wins and I'm not letting her have that." He grabbed a pillow and a blanket from the cupboard.
"Fine but I'll sleep on the floor." I grabbed the pillow from him and put it on the bed.
"Emmett get in the bed, I've shared a bed with you before. If I remember correctly me, you, Alice and Edward all slept in this bed together when I was 15 because you made me watch a scary movie. It's fine we're just friend Emmett."
"Fine but only because you told me to." We both crawled into bed snuggling on our separate sides with a big gap in between us.
"Night Bella"
"Night Emmett" I rolled over and went to sleep easily.
