My face had healed mostly, my nose still looked pretty mangled. I did get fired, courtesy of Mrs. Dewitt. Edward didn't get fired, which irritated me beyond belief. We had made up a while ago. I had gone over to his apartment the second Emmett said it was okay to. They had both acted really differently after that whole episode. I expected that from Edward, but not from Emmett. Whenever he looked at my face, which was rarely, something unidentifiable would cross his face, and then he would look away. It made me sad and kind of nervous; I didn't like it when he acted like that. He rarely came over to my house anymore, and he wouldn't let me come over to his.

"Bella, are you going to eat that?" Emmett asked. I snapped out of my daydream and remembered that we were on a date. The first since the episode. I was going to turn nineteen tomorrow, and so Edward, Rosalie, Emmett, and I were going to go out somewhere. I hoped it was a movie. The last movie I had watched was Shawn of the Dead and I really needed to get that out of my head. Zombies terrified me beyond belief.

"Um, yeah, I guess." I muttered. I picked up my untouched hamburger— no cheese, no pickles or mustard or anything like that. Just ketchup. Emmett teased me all the time saying that it was disgusting, but it wasn't. It's really good this way.

Emmett didn't say anything except, "Hey, since your going to take a while, I'm going to get something else to eat."

"If you keep eating like that, Em, you're gonna get really fat." I said. He ignored me and went back up to the counter. I bit my lip, wondering if tomorrow was a good idea to have Edward and Emmett in the same car. Well, they did become kind of close, which really confused me. I can't say it was pleasant, most of the time. Emmett did spend a lot more time with Edward and Rosalie than me.

We finished up our dinner and Emmett dropped me off at my house. I waved bye and went inside. I took a shower and lay on my bed. I had put the Alice doll in a box somewhere, and I hadn't even looked at it for a few months. I hummed my favorite song to myself as I fell asleep.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up a few hours later and stared at the clock. 6:45 a.m. I moaned and rolled over. Why couldn't I ever sleep in anymore? I rolled off the bed and went to the bathroom. I decided to get ready, why waste time try to get to sleep when I know it's not going to happen? I put on pretty makeup, which took up a fair chunk of time. I did my hair and got dressed. By the time I finished it was 8:00.

I heard someone knocking, and I skipped over to the door. Sure enough, it was Emmett coming to pick me up. I smiled and said finally.

"Hey, Bella." He said while looking at his feet. I sighed.

"Can you actually look at my face, Emmett?" I mumbled. He peeked at my face and then looked over the railing.

"Edward and Rose are here. We better hurry up." He said.

I scowled and followed him down to the car. I was greeted by a smile and a scowl. "Hey, Edward!" I smiled. I felt eyes boring into the back of my head, and turned around. "Hi, Rosalie," I added. She just scoffed at me and looked out the window.

A/N: I really like writing authors notes! Yay!

But really, I have something to say. I know that most of you guys went into this story thinking it's a Bella and Edward story, just give me time to work up to it, okay? I know what I'm doing. (I think.)

The reason I was mad at Bella was because I read a fanfic where she was a complete and total whore!

Edward punched her because he was just soooooo upset. Remember how Emmett's legs kept hitting the wall? That's why Edward thought that they were having sex. The banging on the wall that scared Bella was Edward hitting the wall. I don't remember why I made him do that, but anyway! Muhahahaha…

I think I'm going to wrap up the story soon; I'm getting kind of bored. Oh, and if enough people ask me to, I might do an EPOV. Which is Edward, not Emmett…

Oh, and sorry for the short chapter, but something really big is going to happen and I thought it deserved its own chapter.
