When I wrote this chapter I had no idea so many people would wonder why Emmett and Edward were fighting. It just sort of happened that way. I guess I'll just let you read it now. By the way thanks for the reviews, wow you guys are awesome!

CHAPTER 14

"You're a terrible excuse for a vampire! An even worse excuse for a man!" Emmett shouted around Jasper.

"Well I guess that's good! Because I'm not a man! You're just mad because Rosalie loves me instead of you! You're just a sore loser!" Edward yelled back.

Emmett snarled and Jasper had to physically hold him back now. "How dare you even say that! Why would I want Rosalie when I have Bella? I think it's you who are realizing what you lost and now you're regretting it! Well I'm glad to tell you that Bella won't be coming back to you. She's tired of getting hurt!"

"You know as well as I do that Bella doesn't love you! She's always loved me! I've always been the one! The one she loves, the one she wants, the one she needs! It's really too bad, now you won't have anyone!" Edward bellowed back.

Rosalie and I stepped into the room at the same time. "Oh? Any where exactly am I going to be?" I demanded loudly. Both boys looked over at us and stared in shock and humiliation. "Because as I recall, Emmett and I are together. So in order for him to be alone, I would have to not be there."

"Yes, and I would like to know why I am not in this little story Edward?" Rosalie asked dangerously.

"Rose," Edward said pleadingly. "I didn't mean that. I was caught up… whatever you heard, it's not true."

"Would you two mind telling us what exactly is going on?" I demanded. "As I recall, you were supposed to go hunting while we were gone."

"We went hunting," Edward defended. "But while we were out Emmett scared away a lion I was about to get and said 'oh how typical, you can't keep a hold of anything you have your eyes on'. I just snapped. We've been…fighting ever since. I couldn't help it. I didn't think it would bother me so much…"

"Edward, just so you know. I do not love you, I do not want you, and I do not need you. Also, I do love Emmett. I'm sorry that I don't love you. I'm sorry that you left me after telling me that I wasn't good enough for you. I'm sorry for moving on when you obviously thought I should be wallowing here along and in pain." I paused for a moment, suddenly realizing that what I was saying was crazy. "You know what, on second thought, I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry for anything. Everything that's happened is partly your fault. How does it feel Edward? Knowing you played such a big part in our lives?"

I walked further into the room and flipped my hair back over my shoulder. "If you hadn't left me, Victoria would have killed me, thus I would not be a vampire. Because I wouldn't be a vampire I probably wouldn't be here to be with Emmett, and so you and Rosalie would have no problems coming back into the family. But alas, you saw me as a vampire and decided that you like what you saw, you decided that you could get me back even if I didn't want you, even if I was happy, even if it would hurt Rosalie. I'm not sorry to say that you and I…we're over Edward, done. Except for being brother and sister, we have nothing to do with each other."

Emmett shrugged Jasper off him and came to me, hugging me tightly. When he released me I saw that no one else had moved. "Now, I…I don't really know if it's possible, but I personally would like to just be a family. Edward, if you can get over yourself maybe we'll have a chance at that. What do you say? Are you willing to try?" I asked.

He glanced around the room until his eyes rested on Rosalie. Following his gaze, I noticed her silently pleading with him. Finally he nodded, "I'll try. And I swear I won't be any trouble anymore. If things don't workout I'll leave."

Esme made a quiet sound and I shook my head, "no Edward, you will not leave. If anyone leaves it will be me. I'm the one who caused all these problems and by leaving I will be the one to solve them."

This time everyone made an uproar. Carlisle's voice drowned out the others when he said, "no Bella, that would not solve the problems, but most likely make them worse. You see, if you left, Emmett would go with you, breaking up the family anyway. Not to mention you are part of the family. We would not be a family without you. Besides, can you imagine what would happen to Alice if you weren't here anymore? No, Edward will get his act together and we will be a family again."

There was such authority in his voice that both Edward and I nodded automatically. "Alright, now, no more fighting, I mean it." This time everyone nodded in agreement.

I sighed and picked up my discarded shopping bags, the high I'd gotten while on the trip now completely evaporated. Emmett followed me upstairs as I headed to his room to drop of my purchases. When I turned around, he was standing at the door, watching me.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing, you're just the most amazing girl I've ever met," he said softly.

I smiled sweetly, "well, it's been said. Have I told you recently how much I love you?" I whispered, walking toward him slowly.

He considered, "hum…now that you mention it, I don't think you have. Perhaps you should tell me again."

It was my turn to pretend to consider, "nah, I think it'll be more effective if I show you," I said before kissing him softly. As I knew he would, he wrapped his arms around me and deepened the kiss until I was gasping for breath I didn't need. My fingers twined themselves into his hair as I held him in place. I didn't even register that we were moving until my back made contact with the mattress.

A sudden gasp and the words, "oh I'm sorry!' broke us out of our passion and we looked around quickly, just in time to see Rosalie's blond hair disappear around the door. After a moment, we looked back at each other and Emmett sat up. I sighed and sat up next to him, wrapping my arms around my knees. He reached over, put his arm around my shoulders, and pulled me to his side so I was resting my head on his shoulder.

"I suppose I should go talk to her…" I said slowly.

"No, I'll go, she'll want to talk to me," Emmett said, reluctantly letting me go and leaving the room. Silently, making sure neither of them would hear me, I followed until I could hear them speaking.

"Rosalie?" Emmett asked.

"Oh, Emmett," she said, sounding surprised.

"Are you alright?" he asked.

"Yes, I just wasn't expecting to see…I never really let myself believe that you and Bella really cared about each other that much. After seeing you just now…I guess it hit me kind of hard. I remember when you and I… well I won't go into it. I'm happy for you," she said.

"Thank you. I guess we should have shut the door huh?"

She laughed a little, "just maybe, you know, unless you wanted everyone to see you and her going at it."

"We weren't…we haven't…" I could tell that Emmett was flustered by this.

"What you mean you and she haven't…? Why on earth not? Won't she let you?" she asked.

I almost gasped in indignation. As it was Emmett chuckled a little, "no Rosalie. I told her I wanted to wait. Mostly because you and I are still technically married, and she told me before that she always wished to be a virgin when she married but didn't think it would happen…this way, it will."

"Oh, yeah, I was meaning to talk to you about that…I mean our marriage not Bella's vir— Well you get the point."

"Yeah, what are we going to do about our marriage? Divorce?" he asked.

"I think that's the only option Emmett. I mean, we…we can't get an annulment, because we consummated our marriage, more than once."

"Right, well, I suppose we should get on that. Tomorrow we should go to the courthouse and file for divorce."

"So eager to be rid of me?" she asked almost sadly.

"No Rose, I just think it's for the best, especially since you and Edward are…and Bella and I are together. I don't want to be married to you but in love with her. Besides, sometime I plan on asking her to marry me."
