Emmett's POV

When I saw that Rosalie (I couldn't even call her Rose anymore) started a new life in LA I figured it was time for me to do the same. I started dating this beautiful woman, Leah, but it wasn't the same. Sure she was nice and was an okay distraction for awhile but I didn't feel anything for her. So I moved on from one girl to the next. Before I knew it I had thrown myself into work, the season was almost half over by now. Rosalie was rumored to be moving back to New York. I decided to try and talk to her, something had felt wrong ever since my ring had been returned to me, I knew she had to be the one who had sent it back to me.

I had spent whatever time not working just trying to keep busy. I also wanted to steer clear of Rosalie's former friends, yes they were my friends but I could only take so much. Edward and Bella had gotten married about a month ago but I didn't go to the wedding, something about going felt wrong. Instead I spent time hanging out with the single members of the team. One night, after a game we decided to hit a few bars. By the end of the night I had pockets full of phone numbers that I had every intention of burning. When we had reached the last bar a woman seemed to appear out of nowhere. She was beautiful, she reminded me so much of Rosalie. Her long blonde hair and deep blue eyes, which were almost violet, just like Rosalie. The only thing that seemed to be missing was the glow and sparkle Rosalie had in her eyes, her name was Tanya.

Shortly after we started dating, my mother was ashamed of me, and Lindsey was no longer speaking to me, I knew she too was ashamed, but neither woman would ever admit it.

One evening, while I had been waiting for Tanya, I spotted several photos in the hotel restaurant's lobby. They were amazing; I looked to see who had taken such amazing photos. I was surprised when I saw Rosalie Hale written in the bottom corners of the pictures. When my shock had worn off I looked up, I thought I had seen Tanya walking through the door. As she got closer I realized that it couldn't be Tanya, this woman was much more beautiful, even if she was several months pregnant. I stood there my jaw hanging open. She gave me a sad, yet gentle smile, "Hello Emmett, it's nice to see you." I wanted to do nothing other than wrap my arms around her and never let go, how could I not? She was beyond words; all I could do was stare at her.

Our reunion was cut short when Tanya arrived, she walked over and snaked her body so she was pressed tightly against me. She kissed my lips hard then turned to face Rosalie, "Oh I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to interrupt, I'm Tanya Douglas, Emmett's soon to be fiancé." Rosalie looked at the floor quickly, I could see the pain in her eyes, I knew her heart had shattered. Rosalie offered Tanya her hand to shake, "That's alright, I'm Rosalie Hale, pleased to meet you Tanya," she glanced at me, the pain I caused her lingering in her eyes, " It was nice to see you again Emmett, but if you would excuse me, I'm late for a dinner meeting." She dashed off before I could stop her so I could explain. I knew if I ever wanted to talk to her again I would have to settle things with Tanya first.

I watched as Rose (I couldn't believe I was back to calling her Rose) sat down at a table with two other men, on of them her ex husband Royce, and a woman. I turned around to get a better look but we were shown to our table.

Rosalie's POV

I sat down at my table, net to my lawyer, Alec Volterra. Royce and his lawyer, Jessica Stanley were seated across from us. We ate in silence until Royce finally spoke up, "I just wanted to inform you, Rosalie that I am prepared to fight you for fully custody of this baby." My jaw dropped as his lawyer handed some papers to mine. I tried to keep my voice low when I spoke, "you can not be serious! This is my child; I refuse to bring a baby into this world just so you can use the child so you will have an heir. I am not some unfit woman whose care for the child's well being is far from that of my own!" Royce smiled at me; my stomach clenched and threatened to turn, "It's not like that at all Rosalie. I just feel it would be better for a child to be born into a world where their mothers wouldn't exploit them like some silly fashion accessory," he continued and his smile grew wider, " I just want what's best for my child, after all the will be the heir to my family's wealth. I also want them to know love and true caring."

My lawyer had to hold me back; I surely would've been in jail by now if he hadn't. Royce and his lawyer stood, dropping some money for their part of the bill, and walked away leaving me with my lawyer. I got up out of my seat after paying for the remainder of the meal and left. I thought I saw Emmett on my way out but I couldn't be sure of anything with all the tears in my eyes that were threatening to fall. I slipped into my car and cried the whole way home. I felt like everything was lost. Emmett would so been engaged, there was a chance I could lose my child, if it turned out to be a boy, and I was alone. I had never been so terrified in my life.
