Ok, so you should know. This chapter... is not how I planned the story orginally. What changed my mind was all of your reviews, they made me see that Emmett just isn't the cheating type. He isn't like that. And I was stupid to try to portray his character like that, and I apologize. lol
The flashback in this chapter was the other thing that changed my mind:)
Just to let you know - This chapter takes place the same day as the last chapter did. It picks up where Tanya and Emmett left off. Enjoy:)
EMPOV
"Fuck that feels good." I moaned. I closed my eyes tightly and let my head fall back against the pillow.
"Mhmm." Tanya said in response as she continued to lightly stroke my dick. "Do you have a condom?" She asked me and my eyes opened.
"Umm… I… Hang on." I said and got up to look in the side dresser. I knew I didn't have any. Bella and I never used them. We never had the need for one.
"I don't." I sighed apologetically. "Me and Bella, we never used them because she was always on the pill. And there was no need for us to use one when she got off the pill because that would have just defeated the…" I trailed off thinking about why she came off the pill in the first place just weeks ago.
Flasback
"I love you Daddy." He said.
"I love you too son." I whispered and then smiled at Bella, who had tears in her eyes.
"Go finish your dinner." I told him and he jumped off the couch and ran out the door.
"Amazing isn't he?" I asked Bella.
"Yep." She smiled and kissed me. "Do you want another one?" I heard her ask quietly.
"What?!" I asked surprised.
"Do you want another baby?" She asked again.
"Bella…" I started off, but she stopped me with giving me a kiss.
"No, it was just a question. I didn't mean to make you upset." She said.
"Baby girl. Look at me." I said and held up her chin. "I'm not upset. You just took me by surprise, that's all. If you want another baby, we can try." I said.
"Are you sure?" She asked. I nodded.
"Well how about we just stop trying not to have a baby." She asked. "That way we don't get our hopes up?"
"Ok, but that is pretty much like trying." I laughed and she shrugged.
"True." She giggled and then kissed me again.
End Flashback
I smiled at the moment I had just remembered. Things were so simple then. No accident. No hospital. No zombie Bella. No Tanya.
And yet. That was just a couple of weeks before.
What happened to us? What happened to me?
It all hit me like wrecking ball.
Why wasn't I at the hospital with my wife and son? They are my world? So why wasn't I in my world?
The truth was that I was in some other world. A mean world. A nasty world where people lie, and cheat…
I couldn't believe that I could be so selfish, so heartless. I knew Bella was going through hell, and part of the reason she was, was because of me.
I looked around the room, noticing where I was. What I was doing.
I quickly grabbed the throw off the side of the couch and covered my naked body. And then I turned to Tanya.
Yes, she still was a beautiful girl, but not my girl. My beautiful girl was sitting in a hospital room, waiting for our little boy to wake up.
"Emmett?" Tanya asked me and I looked away from her. I felt her hand lay on my shoulder.
"What wrong?" She asked. "If it's about the condoms, we don't have to use one. You can just pull out…" She stated.
I whipped my head around to look at her when I heard that.
"You need to go." I said quietly.
"What? I don't understand? What did I do?" She questioned.
"I said, You need to leave. NOW!" I growled. She scampered around room trying to find all of her belongings.
She got dressed quickly, and before leaving she walked over to me.
I looked up at her and she smiled slightly. "I'm sorry." She said simply and left without another word.
I got up and put my boxers on, then picked up the rest of my cloths. I went to take a shower.
I scrubbed and scrubbed until my skin was raw, trying to wash away the things that I had done. It didn't work, I still felt like shit. Like an asshole. Like a arrogant bastard. Like a cheater.
I turned to water off and stumbled out of the shower dazed. I put on some clean boxers and went into the kitchen, grabbing a knife.
I walked slowly into the living room and stared at the couch. I felt the tears welling up in my eyes and walked over and dug the knife into one of the couch cushions.
I went crazy. Slashing and ripping the couch apart. Then I felt a searing pain go through my left hand. I looked down at a deep gash that had formed. I had accidentally caught my hand in the knife.
"Damn it!" I yelled and let the knife drop out of my good hand, while I put pressure on my other one.
I went into the kitchen and grabbed a towel, wrapping in around my hand to serve as a temporary bandage.
I leaned up against the wall and fell to the ground.
I let everything consume me. All the emotions that I had been so desperately holding together through out this whole thing. Anger. Pain. Sadness. Worry. Guilt. Regret. I just let it all out, letting my head rest in my hands, and I balled like a baby.
My phone rang sometime later.
It was Bella.
"Hello?" I answered. There was a small pause before she spoke.
"I'm sorry." She said and I let out a cry that I couldn't hold in.
"Emmett?" She asked worried. I took a deep breath and tried to pull myself together.
"Come to the loft. I'm here. Please?" I begged. I just wanted to be with her, to see her face one last time before she found out what a real piece of shit I was.
"Ok? Are you alright?" She asked.
"Just come." I said softly. "I love you." Then I hung up.
BPOV
"I love you." He whispered before he hung up.
What was wrong with him? He didn't sound like Emmett.
I got up, kissed the top of Nathan's head and looked at him one last time before leaving the hospital.
I got in my car, that Alice had driven over to the hospital for me one day, and started for the loft.
I started thinking about the past few days. I had really been out of it, I still felt out of it. But talking to Nathan's doctor just a while ago had really woken me up from that alternate world I had been living in.
I hadn't really talked to Emmett the whole time while all this stuff had been going on and it made me wonder what he was going through. How he was dealing with all of this.
I pulled into the garage and got out, making my way up to our floor.
I opened to door and was surprised at what I saw.
My $3000 designer couch had been ruined. Slashed and ripped by what looked like a grizzly bear.
I walked over to the pile of cloth and stuffing to examine it more carefully. That's when I saw the small drops of blood. I followed them to the kitchen.
I gasp when I saw Emmett leaning up again the far wall, head in hands.
"Emmett, are you ok? What's wrong? Why are you bleeding? What happened?" I threw out questions left and right as I scrambled over to him.
I lifted his head to see his face. He looked at me, and a tiny smiled appeared. His face was blotchy, and it looked like he had been crying. On of his hands had a blood stained cloth rapped around it.
Before I knew what was happening, he kissed me. It felt so right, but at the same time so different. It felt like he was trying to pull something out of me, so that he could remember it? Almost as if he was saying goodbye?
He pulled away quickly and looked at me, watching me as I tried to catch my breath.
"I'm so sorry." he whispered.
I was confused. What had he done wrong.
"What? No? I should be sorry? I haven't talked to you in days?" I reminded him.
"You haven't talk to me because I haven't been around Bella. It's not your fault? It's mine?" He explained.
"What?" I asked, utterly confused.
"I'm so sorry, I never should have… I wasn't thinking… I was angry and hurt. I…" He rambled as I saw him crumble. By the end of the sentence he was sobbing.
"Hey. What's the matter. You can tell me. I'll understand. I love you remember?"
"No? No you don't? You won't." He cried and shook his head vigorously. He was really starting to worry me. What had he done that was so bad?
"Emmett?" I questioned. And he looked at me. I looked into his eyes and saw the man I had fallen in love with so many years ago. I smiled and rubbed his cheek up and down with my thumb.
"I kissed another woman." He said, backing slightly away from me. "We would have gone farther, but we didn't have a condom."
I froze. The rubbing stopped. I pulled away.
"What?" I whispered as the tears formed in my eyes.
"Bella, baby. I'm so sorry. I knew you would hate me. I knew you would stop loving me. I am ready for that, I just want you to know that I will always love you. That you will always be my beautiful girl, no matter what happens." I cried as he sat there and professed his love to me.
"I could never hate you Emmett…" I said sadly.
"You should."
"I don't think you understand - I can't hate you. You are my… everything. I wouldn't be me without you. I know that's sounds cheesy, but it's true. I need you to function, to breath." I confessed.
He pulled my into his body with his one good hand. I held on tight, never wanting to let go.
"I'm so sorry." I heard him whisper as we both cried softly.
What do yah think? Did it make you cry? Thats what I was going for? lol
Anyways most of you will be happy to know - no more Tanya. She will not appear in the story again. She was just Emmett's way of coping with what was going on around him. I told you to trust me didn't I? lol
And yes, Emmett and Bella will stay together. Although this whole cheating thing might be hard to get over, Bella will forgive him.
Did you like getting an unexpected chapter so late at night? haha If you can get me another 35 reviews like you guys did tonight, maybe you will get two chapters tomorrow too:)
