Okay so forgive me. After basically a year I got around to publishing this chapter. Please Please Please Forgive me!
And please remember I'm just typing this for both of our entertainment. I'm a sixteen year old girl who writes Twilight fanfiction in her spare time (or what's left of it) So don't be too harsh on me!
I do love you readers, and I now have my own computer to write on finally so updates will actually happen faster, sooner and all year round this time!
"Holy crap it's cold!"I nearly screamed.
The whole clan, minus the kids, were sitting in box seats at one of Emmett's mid-season games. Mid-season meaning middle of November. I was freezing my butt off! Alice just giggled and popped a warm nacho into her mouth. She seemed perfectly content with this weather. I thought she had to be crazy, but then I remembered...she's Alice. Carlisle, Edward and Jasper seemed to enthralled with the game going on. All that mattered to me at this point was being there for Em.
Alice and I were sitting inside the box with Esme and Rose. Everything was pretty good until I heard the boys scream and then a sports announcer, from the television in the room that was broadcasting the game, said something about Emmett Cullen being knocked unconscious. I immediately stood up and ran down through the giant stadium with Carlisle and Esme at my side. It seemed like it never ended going from one floor to the next. I just kept thinking if Em was going to be okay. Esme and Carlisle kept going on and on about how it happened an the dangers it posed to their son. As I ran further and stumbled through the crowds I could hear the replays of him getting hit and I just wanted them to stop. It wasn't till I felt moisture on my lip that I knew I was crying.
We were cleared at the locker room entrance and I ran to the medical trainer's room. There I spotted assistants and paramedics carefully removing Em's pads and gear. I couldn't even see his face because too many people were blocking my view. I finally found a spot just by his right hand. A person removed his glove and I gripped his hand as if dear life depended on it. Then as I held is hand a cold piece of metal caused me to tear my eyes away from his face and to his fingers. He was wearing the safety ring I got him when we started out freshman year of high school..
"Love the game,Love the Life, that's the inscription you wanted right?" The jeweler asked me as he did one final inspection before placing the ring in a case.
"Yup! That's right! Thank you so much sir!" I said as I laid down the rest of the payment. He then handed me the ring with a friendly wink and I was on my way. I hopped on the bus and rode down to school. Sure I was going to be late, but for this, it didn't matter.
"And we are going to knock those Gators to the ground!" Yelled the Varsity Football team captain at the school pep rally. I spotted Em from my spot in the bleachers and then realized he was looking at me, but he wasn't giving me just any look it was his 'I'm nervous out of my mind look'. He had the right to be though, he was one of two freshmen boys who was picked to be on Varsity. But not only was he on the team, he was actually playing. I just smiled and gave him a thumbs up. Em then turned his nervous look to a cocky smile and he looked just like he belonged in that letterman jacket line of jocks.
We were dismissed from the pep rally and I ran through the crowd to catch up with Em. I dragged him down to the hall by the locker room.
"Bells, what are we doing here? We still have to pack and then we can leave and-"
"Em just be quiet for a second." I interrupted him and he looked at me like I had something on my face. So I looked down and as I was gnawing on my lip I dug for the case in my back pocket. Right as I pulled out the box his eyes widened and he put his palms up as if telling me to slow down.
"Bells, I'm not ready to get marr-"
"It's not what you think." I said as I giggled. "It's just that I know you're nervous for tonight and I'm nervous too. I know it's stupid, it's just that...well...I want to be on the field with you, with out actually being there, and I know you wear gloves, I mean you always do so you can hide it and its so-" Em cut me off with a kiss. My first kiss to be exact. I kept my eyes closed because I was scared that if I opened them this would all disappear. I felt is forehead pressed against mine, and I think he whispered thank you, but I don't remember. Then he kissed me again and his arms lifted me up until my legs wrapped around his waist and we just continued kissing.
"Isabella, you're always with me. You're always on my mind and in my heart. You're in everything I do and say. You're my world."
In the usual Bella way I broke down and had to be carried out into the hallway and into the the arms of Edward and Jasper. Through my tears I could see Emmett being wheeled out and we followed him to the ambulance and then to the hospital.
I sat there holding Em's hand and staring at the ring. I didn't realize he wore the ring all the time. Even all those years I didn't talk to him, he still wore it. It was so he could have all of me with him. Which also means he never forgot me. I mean he told me that all the time, and I never doubted his love, but this just confirmed it. I could see all the scratches and odd rub marks on the ring.
"You're always with me Bella" His raspy voice filled my ears and I moved up to kiss him immediately.
"And you're always with me Em, you're my everything. So please don't do that again." He laughed and let his head fall back into the pillow.
"I promise I won't...well I'll try."
"Em, the doctor said you'll be fine you just had a concussion. And you can start practicing in two weeks, but for now it just means some quality time at home with me and the kids. Do you think you can handle that?" I asked with a half smile.
"I know I can handle that the question is can you handle me along with the kids?" We both laughed.
After we left the hospital, Em and I headed home and were welcomed home by a curious KC and scared Kris. I went to handle TJ before we all said good night and went to bed in the same bed that night.
