Emmett P.O.V
"A baby? Are you serious right now?" Laurent asks his bright smile not faltering . I smile to as I lift some weights myself.
"I know man I know but… I love them… both of them so much," I admit to him. He just smiles as he stands up and looks at me.
"I never thought… never thought I'd see the day when a woman could break you," Laurent says smiling. "You've grown up Emmett I'm so proud of you. More proud of you then I've ever been," He says as he gulps some water from his water bottle. I just stare at him smiling. I would never admit this to anyone not even Isabella. But growing up there was no one I wanted more then to be proud of me then Laurent. Everyone automatically assumed it would be Carlisle but no it was Laurent. There was something about my younger brother that I admit… I idolized. I think it was because Laurent wasn't afraid of me and he wasn't afraid to love me as a brother. He was the voice of reason. Edward and Jasper I hate to admit it but they were afraid of me… they thought one mess up I'd kill them. But they didn't know me… Laurent always did.
"You are?" I ask surprised. He looks up at me from drinking his water bottle.
"Yeah man… Damn proud. You don't even know how much of a better person you are in all aspects of your life. I'm very proud I love you bro," He says giving me a hug. I hug him back and we laugh as I have my arm around his shoulder.
"So when you popping the question?" Laurent asks.
"I don't know man it's different now you know? Like now I want to do it for more real reasons not just to shut her up. I actually do want to grow old with her and have lots of kids with her so, I got to make it really special," I say.
"True very true," He says "Can't believe I'm going to be an uncle I'm going to spoil that kid like you don't even know," He says.
"No I don't know and don't want to know," I say. Tanya wanders into the gym in a red silk robe, her hair in a ponytail and wearing black juicy couture track pants.
"Oh is this a man crush moment," She teases and I stick my tongue out at her. She walks over to me and jumps on my back.
"Get off me woman," I say spinning her around. She laughs as she blocks my eyes.
"Don't break her, or you're going to have to replace her," Laurent says nonchalantly as he gulps more water.
"What am I a doll?" Tanya asks as I continue to spin her around.
"You're as light as one," I add in. I take her and cradle her into my arms and she starts to scream.
"Hey Laurent?" I say holding Tanya. He looks up at me.
"Catch," I say he laughs holding his arms out for him to catch her.
"Emmett if you throw me I will shoot you with your own gun," She threatens.
"Sorry I can't hear you," I tease. Laurent is just dying of laughter and I finally do it. I throw her into Laurent's arms and he catches her.
"Oh Emmett I'm going to kill you!" she screeches from his arms. Laurent is restraining her and I'm doubled over in laughter. That is until Lauren comes downstairs her hair in rollers, wearing a juicy couture sweat suit as well.
"Hello people! My wedding is in four hours start getting ready!" She screeches at us.
"Lauren?" I call out.
"What!" She screams at me.
"You look beautiful today," I say giving her a hug. She blushes and walks away.
"Aw thanks Emmett," She says back to her conceited self. I just laugh shaking my head as I leave the group. I go upstairs to Bella and my room to see her just getting out of the shower in a pink robe. I run up her picking her up and spinning around. She throws her head back laughing. She leans down and gives me a kiss brushing her hand through my hair.
"How was this morning?" I ask sympathetically.
"Ugh this morning sickness is terrible. You know for such a sweet human being this puking is nothing but gory," She says as she takes the garment bag that has her bridesmaid dress in it.
"Sorry?" I say sheepishly and she rolls her eyes.
"Men," She says sliding on her flip fops. She comes over to me and gives me a chaste kiss.
"Who's going to be on their best behaviour at this wedding?"
"Now that Ben and his bride are halfway to Chicago," I say smiling as I grab her ass bringing her close to me. She blushes burying her face in my shoulder. "Me," I say into her hair. She looks up at me and gives me a chaste kiss.
"I need to go before Lauren tries to kill me," She says. I give her one more deep kiss and then she's on her way. I smile at her retreating figure, I grab my tux and start to get ready for this wedding. Laurent and I weren't taking part in the wedding but Tyler did want us to be with him and his groomsmen after we got dressed. The three of us did become a tight little group not saying the guy was BFFFFFLEENOUTY or whatever the fuck acronym girls use to simply say best friend. But we was a pretty cool guy. When I'm all dressed I make my way to the other building. I pass the room in the hotel where the girls were getting dressed and I could hear squealing. I rolled my eyes as an automatic reaction. I get to the room where the groomsmen are I see that Laurent is already their nurturing a glass of hard liquor.
"Emmett's here now we got everybody," Says one of Tyler's groomsmen Eric. He was a nice guy had eyes for Isabella but he was friendly toward me. I think he had a man crush on me actually yeah I was pretty sure of that. Isabella teased me about it.
"Hey man," I say greeting him politely. I go over to Tyler and shove his shoulder. He laughs giving me the manly hug type thing.
"Oh congratulations," He says quietly. I knew automatically what he was talking about. We both look at each other before we speak.
"Lauren," We both say and then we laugh.
"Congratulations to you too man," I say patting him on the back. He takes a deep breath.
"I've been waiting to be enough for her since high school you know?" He says I know he's not done so I just listen to him. "She blew me off every single time and then it came to a point in my life where I was like I don't her. Then we became friends after she graduated and I realised that, I'd always need her." He admits shaking his head as he fixes his tie. I laugh,
"You guys are perfect for each other. The calm to her fucking crazy," I say honestly and he throws his head back laughing.
"I just met you man but really you're a good friend. Don't worry about Ben he gets weird when it comes to Bella. I'm pretty sure he's just mad he never expected her or wanted her to move off of him," He says giving himself one last look in the mirror.
"Good thing Lauren came in when she did. I would have killed him," I say taking a shot of scotch on the table close to us. Tyler chuckles at what I said.
"Trust me I believe you," He says walking away. The wedding planner comes in looking very stern.
"Get to your stations now," She says calmly. Laurent just narrows his eyes at her but no one says anything or objects as they all pick up last minute things and leave the room in a quiet formation. I wondered for a second if it was a wedding or a military base. We get to the outside on the beach where the wedding ceremony was being held. We take our seats beside two skank looking girls and try not to interact with them, but they had other plans.
"What are your names," The blonde one asks. Laurent throws his head back in annoyance, I flat out ignored her I didn't have time. She was cute, but if you knew me I went for beautiful. I already had sexy, beautiful and most of all loyal. I didn't need this blonde looking for a rich guy in her pink Kmart dress. I'm going to pass but thanks for the offer. Laurent just glares at me because he knows I won't be participating in the conversation.
"Laurent Cullen. Nice to meet you," he says politely shaking her hand. She smiles at him brushing up against him. He moves closer to me and I disguise my snicker as a cough. Tyler walks down the aisle and I smile giving him thumbs up. He gives them to me and people in the audience notice and laugh. The wedding starts and everybody in the wedding comes down. First the flower girls, then the ring bearer I smiled when I saw that it was baby Jason. He was being guided by his mother on wobbly legs. People laughed. When he gets to the end of the aisle, he points to me as I'm in the front row and I open my arms for him.
"EM! EM! EM!" He screams laughing. People "awww" and I laugh as I pick him up. He settles in my lap.
"Thank you," Vanessa whispers smiling and I give her thumbs up as she goes and stands where the bridesmaids stand. Jason looks at me I cross my eyes and stick out my tongue. He laughs and starts clapping. Laurent just chuckles as he kisses Jason's fat cheek. Who in return smiles and claps some more, the rest of the bridesmaids come down and I smile and wink as Isabella passes me. She gives me a confused look when she sees me holding Jason.
"He's my best friend," I whisper and she just laughs quietly and finishes her walk. We all stand for the wedding march and when Lauren comes down the aisle escorted by her father Tanya starts to shed some tears from where she's standing. I roll my eyes women were so emotional when it came to these things I swear. I didn't pay attention for half of the ceremony I just played with Jason and laughed at Laurent when the blonde was trying to touch him. I could just feel Tanya glaring at her from where she was standing and I knew that Blondie was going to have to run for her life once we hit reception time.
"You may now kiss the bride," the priest says and when Lauren and Tyler kiss everyone breaks out in applause. This causes baby Jason to fall into a fit of loud laughter as he joins in clapping too. Throwing in a good slap in the face to me a couple of times in there too, I carry him to the cocktail hour and we find Isabella with a glass of what looks like champagne. I raise my eyebrow at her.
"It's sparkling apple juice," She says rolling her eyes but quickly smiles when she sees Jason.
"Be!" He screams laughing. Isabella smiles as she takes him from my arms.
"Did you like the wedding?" She coos at him. He just touches her cheek and kisses her. Tanya storms up to us looking rather pissed holding one heel in her hand. Isabella just raises an eyebrow at her.
"What's her name," She demands of me.
"Who?" Isabella asks quickly.
"The slut that was talking to Laurent. Did he leave with her oh when I get my hands on them,"
"I'm right here Tan," Laurent says laughing holding a glass of something strong.
"Who was she," She snaps.
"A girl named Lindsay who is not even as close to as beautiful as you," He says wrapping one arm around her waist and giving her a kiss. She sighs and gives in kissing him back and soon Isabella and I were just standing there watching them with disgusted looks on our faces. Jason was laughing and pointing. Isabella and I walk away with Jason but then Vanessa approaches us.
"Ma!" Jason says reaching his arms out for her. She smiles as she takes him from Isabella's arms.
"Thanks guys," She says not really meaning it as she walks away cooing at her son. Isabella just shakes her head laughing.
"Has she always been that bitchy?"
"Always," She says as I wrap my arms around her. "But I have to say watching you hold a baby," She says looking up at me resting her chin on my chest. "Is very sexy," She says. After that statement I'm pretty sure I growled as I leaned in and ravished her lips not even caring about her lip gloss.
"And guess what since I've been pregnant," She says as we kiss. I wrap my arms around her waist.
"Mhmm," I mumble against her lips.
"I've been really horny. I want you ten times more than I did before," She teases as she bites my lip.
"Only ten?" I growl out at her.
"100?"
"Not enough," I continue. She whimpers against my lips.
"A million?" She all but begs.
"Close," I say looking around wondering where we can find somewhere to be alone for like a second. We sneak inside the hotel and find a closet that was opened. I put a chair against the knob so we won't be disturbed. I corner her against the wall and she reaches for my belt buckle. I lift up her dress quickly yanking her thong off. This wasn't going to be slow this was going to be quick, and fast. Little Emmy has made an appearance at an event that he really shouldn't be showing his face in and the only person that can make him disappear is my beautiful girlfriend. She had the magic weapon. My pants slide down and I waste no time entering her. I knew I didn't hurt her there was no way she wouldn't be wet for me. Go ahead call me a cocky bastard… I was one.
"Oh God!" She says throwing her head back as I wrap one of her legs around my waist to go in deeper. She tangles her fingers in my hair. I can't even form words just grunts and moans as I pull myself out and ram myself back in. She whimpers as she grips my hair.
"Harder," She whimpers out and I comply. "Ugh Faster," She says and I comply again. The next couple of minutes are filled with grunting, growls and feminine moans as we go at our fast pace.
"Emmett I'm-
She can't finish her sentence because I came before she can even do it herself. She comes right after me and then I collapse against her. We're breathing hard as we try to get our composure back.
"I think I'm going to take to this pregnancy nicely," I say breathlessly and she bursts out laughing shaking her head. She lets out a big breath and then she starts to fix her appearance. I do the same and one more once over and the two of us leave the closet. No one notices we were missing and no one saw us as we left… no one was the wiser.
By the time we get back everyone is going into the reception and Laurent just raises his eyebrow at me and I smirk. He pretends to gag and I flip him the bird. Vanessa comes up to the two of us, she hands baby Jason over to me not even looking twice.
"He's been screaming Em! Em! Em! Since you guys disappeared. He's killing my eardrums. Laurens looking all over for you," She says diverting her attention to Isabella pulling her hand and walking away. She didn't even give me or her son a second glance. That woman was seriously a piece of work. I go the table that was assigned to me, I was a little pissed that Isabella and Tanya couldn't sit with us and I was stuck with Laurent all by myself. His tough as nails girlfriend wouldn't have to deal with him. I did. I take my seat next to Laurent and Jason jumps into his arms.
"Man why can't the girls sit with us? Now we have to sit with a bunch of loser strangers," He complains. I'm not even paying attention as I just continue to think about what Isabella and I did in the closet. I look over at her as she laughs with Tyler and has conversation with him. Her cheeks still a little flushed and I know that she hasn't totally recovered from our closet dance either. I smile loving the affect I have on her but not just the affect but… how it lasts.
"Can you get your head out of the clouds for ten minutes and be pissed with me?" Laurent says annoyed I roll my eyes.
"Can I be pissed at you instead?" I ask. My older brother annoyed at younger brother syndrome kicking in. It really doesn't matter what age you reach your younger siblings will always annoy you. Laurent just rolls his eyes right back at me and Jason laughs trying to do the same thing but it doesn't look the same at all. I just chuckle at the little boy trying to give me attitude. Speaking of attitude I wonder how Melissa would be when she was teenager. She could date but she would have a security team with her at all times. She wouldn't know they were their anyways. Of course I had to approve of the boyfriend and if I didn't like him or didn't approve there was no way they would continue to date. That was it and I didn't care. The reception actually starts kicking off and when it's time to eat. Jason's father comes over to me realizing I've had his son all night. Apologizing relentlessly he kept talking about how Vanessa tends to give him to whomever who will hold him. I laugh and assure him it's ok. The wedding speeches sped by and I mostly just tried to stay awake. I knew it would be rude if I fell asleep as this was a "Touching time" and Isabella even started crying during her speech. Tanya did the same thing and I tried to keep from rolling my eyes as much as I could. There was only so much of this YaYa sisterhood nonsense I could take.
Some slow song was playing and Isabella comes over to me to dance and I happily take her to the dance floor with the other couples. She looks up into my eyes and I look down at her.
"I know we've said it a lot on this trip," She says quietly. "But I love you so much and I can't wait to go home and start our family," She says I put my forehead to hers as we sway softly.
"I can't wait either Isabella I love you so much," I say and she smiles I wipe a tear that managed to fall and continued to dance effortlessly.
-Next day-
"Ok I did something very bad," Isabella says coming into the room looking scared. Laurent and I were sitting in the private study going over some documents before we left for our flight back home to Chicago.
"What is it are you hurt," I say walking over to her. Laurent relaxes in his chair. Isabella looks at me like she's afraid to say it. She hands me a paper and I look to see it's a credit card bill. I read all the details while she squints her eyes closed.
"You spent fifteen thousand dollars on baby stuff in one day with a computer?" I ask surprised. Laurent falls back laughing and I roll my eyes Isabella looks like she would burst into tears any minute. I was wrong though it only took ten seconds.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to spend so much I just wanted the baby to-
"Isabella, Isabella stop," I say softly taking her into my arms and leaning against the desk. I was more surprised than angry. What's there to be angry about? She bought stuff for our baby? I spend more money on designer underwear.
"It's ok. Isabella come on fifteen thousand dollars you know I don't care about that stuff I don't care about the money," I say softly rubbing her back as she sniffles.
"But it's your money," she cries into my shoulder. Laurent just narrows his eyes at her and I show him a facial expression that shows I don't understand the tears either.
"It is not only my money ok what's mine is yours I tell you all the time. This," I say holding up the bills. "This is nothing ok spend more if need be my money is your money Isabella it's our money ok," I whisper to her assuring-ly. She sniffles nodding her head.
"So you won't be mad if I went and bought three more Louboutins I saw?" She asks quietly.
"Buy ten," I say and she smiles brightly kissing my cheek.
"Ok," She says perkily leaving the room. I look at Laurent holding my hands up in confusion with a "What the fuck" facial expression.
"Hormones are the devil man… right after MTV," Is all he says and I just shake my head throwing the bill on the desk as it did not serve any importance to me.
"Where were we?" I ask.
"Nana called. She's pissed someone's been fucking with her computer system," He says like it's nothing.
"Oh what does Nana have to hide nude pictures from her wild days?" I tease as I lean into my own chair. He laughs throwing his head back.
"I don't know but I don't trust it," He says. I narrow my eyes at him.
"What do you mean you don't trust it?" I ask interested.
"When she called she seemed more… panicked then pissed. She's hiding something,"
"So what we don't trust nana now?" I ask he looks at me shrugging. "But the question is what is she hiding. Who was smart enough to get into her computer system she has better security then of the Pentagon," I say.
"Maybe she let something slip without realizing it. Maybe she left a computer unprotected or something?" He asks.
"Yeah but where?" I ask back thinking now. He looks at me.
"The Island," He concludes. "There's a computer their right you and Bella were just there," He says.
"I didn't touch that computer," I say. He raises his eyebrow and I'm thinking what he's thinking. We look at each other for a long period of time but then we shake our heads.
"Nah can't be," I say. He agrees.
"Yeah Bella can barely work her air miles. Let alone nanas computer," He concludes.
"But if she was panicked it must have been something big. Something that can ruin a lot of people not including us," I say knowing it.
"Who's the one person she would go do anything to protect other than Grandpa," He says.
"Carlisle," We both say without hesitation.
Bella P.O.V
"I'm going to miss this place," I say sadly as Emmett loads up the private jet.
"I know. Me too before the baby is born we'll come back just the two of us I promise," he says kissing my forehead. I was looking forward to going home but I would miss this place. The whole thing was bittersweet. I went into the plane and collapse beside Tanya. Her face probably matched mine. Tanned, tired, and sad. We laugh a little bit. Lauren already said her goodbyes and was just enjoying her honeymoon. The wedding was an emotional roller coaster that I didn't want to get back on. Tanya just sighs loudly.
"You ok?" I ask her.
"Yeah of course," She says and I raise my eyes. She wasn't I knew her better than that. "Ok… well this vacation has probably been some of the best days of my life," She says and I smile.
"So what's the matter?" I ask.
"I keep getting this heart wrenching feeling that something bad is going to happen to someone I really care about. You, Laurent, Emmett, Alice, Rosalie, Edward, Jasper, Bree. The feeling won't go away and I feel like it'll be really bad," She says
"Have you spoken to Laurent about this?" I ask and she shakes her head. She brushes some of her hair behind her head.
"No. I don't want to worry him," she says. I hug her and kiss her temple.
"We're going to be fine. If something bad does happen we'll recover. We always recover don't we?" I ask her.
"We do," She agrees and I smile. Emmett and Laurent enter the plane and I take my seat beside Emmett. He kisses my temple and wraps his arms around me.
"Home here we come," He says as the plane takes off. When we're in the air I stare aimlessly out the window thinking of Melissa. Thinking of the people she's going to love, trust. People who are going to hurt her. Of every person that comes into her life and I realised something. I wanted to be the person that she can trust more than anything in the world. I look over at Emmett the man who I love. He smiles lazily at me and I smile back. I know he trusts me, and I needed to keep that trust. So I knew that I was going to have to find some kind of way to tell him. That the father that was supposed to be protecting him could possibly be an enemy and that Sam Uley was most likely still alive. But I couldn't do it now, so I just go deeper into his arms and turn the volume up on my I pod. Letting the sound of the song "Somebody that I used to know" take me away and think of the person that I used to be.
Sorry for taking so long I went away and then when I came back I was in the hospital for a while. But all better again. Hope you enjoyed. Their should be a longer chapter up soon.
