Everyone had gotten changed once it started to get dark and they were all sitting around the living room. Esme and I walked inside after starting the fire and outing logs around it for everyone to sit on.

"Woah, is that a fire I smell?" Emmett looked excited.

"Sure is." I smiled.

"You guys are fabulous." Rosalie said.

"Thanks." Esme said.

We went to get changed while everyone else went to sit down.

When we made our way out, Jasper was pouring wine which was mixed with blood, as well as normal wine for the wolves and Renesmee.

"Seth, are you even allowed to drink?" Bella asked.

"What happens on Isle Esme stays on Isle Esme…" Melody said.

Seth laughed, "Yeah, I am."

"He drinks with the pack all the time." Jacob added.

"Hold on a second…" Emmett got up and ran into the house. He returned a minute later with a Bluetooth speaker and Jasper's phone, which had all the music they liked on it.

"Let's party!" Emmett yelled excitedly.

Esme and I accepted our glasses and sat beside Edward and Bella.


Throughout the night, everyone had a little too much to drink. Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie and Bella couldn't walk straight, Alice started to get quieter as she drank more, Seth, Renesmee and Jacob decided they were going to go to bed after their drink; Bella had swapped places with Edward so she could talk with Esme, who also probably couldn't walk straight if she tried and Edward, Melody and I were only tipsy.

"Okay, goodnight everyone." Renesmee said as she and the boys stood.

She tripped with her first step, indicating she drank more than she should have as well.

Edward was at her side immediately and helped her get to her room. Jacob and Seth didn't have as much as her so they were able to stand by themselves, but would probably have a very large hangover in the morning.

Melody moved over next to me and stared at her mother as she and Bella were laughing in hysterics at something they were talking about.

"I don't like it when everyone drinks a lot…" she whispered to me.

"They don't get to do it often."

"Why aren't you drinking as much as them?"

"I don't feel the need to."

"Esme, you want another drink?" Jasper asked.

"No, she's had enough." I answered before she could.

Esme looked up at me, "Carlisle."

"You've had enough Esme."

"I'm not even drunk."

"Walk in a straight line."

She stood up and tried but stumbled and almost fell before I caught her.

"See, you have definitely had enough."

"Fine, I'm going to lie down." She said, but after a few steps, she was stumbling again.

I ran over and caught her again before she fell. "Call it a night guys, you've all have a little too much."

"We're here till the sun comes up, Pops." Emmett called.

I shook my head and carried Esme to our room. As soon as I lay her on the bed, she pulled me down and planted a hard kiss on my lips.

"Not tonight Esme, you're really drunk."

She frowned. "Fine." She rolled over with her back to me. I sat down beside her and picked up my book.


It had been about an hour before Esme decided she would try again.

She rolled over and sat up on her forearm. "I'm bored."

"Sketch or watch TV." I suggested.

She pushed by book down and shifted herself so that she could kiss me.

"Esme, no." I declined in a stern voice.

"But—"

"No, not while you're drunk."

She made a frustrated groan before rolling back over and turning on the TV.

"Shit!" I heard Rosalie yell, still around the fire with her siblings. Bella had come inside to lie down on the couch not long after us, on Edwards's request. Melody had gone to lay with Seth while he slept.

I was out there in less than a second.

"What happened?" I asked.

Jasper was on the ground and he appeared to be in pain. Edward was holding Emmett back.

"They were arguing like they normally do, then it turned heated and now they're both furious with each other. I'm surprised you didn't hear them yelling. Anyway, Emmett took Jasper to the ground and threw a few very hard punches." Rosalie explained.

"Damn it Emmett you dick!" Alice yelled. She was at Jasper's side.

"Alice!" I scolded. She stood up and walked over to Emmett, and before Edward realised what was happening, she slapped him. Rosalie pulled her back and growled before crouching. Alice copied her move.

"Girls! Stop it now!" I yelled.

Neither of them listened and as Rosalie sprung into the air, so did I. I caught her mid-air and we crashed to the ground. I made sure I was the one to make contact with the earth so that she didn't get as hurt.

They had sobered up a bit and could now walk so I guessed they didn't have another drink after I left.

Esme was out after hearing the very loud crash when Rose and I hit the ground.

"What is going on here?" she looked very worried.

"Rosalie, Emmett, go inside now!" I was very angry and decided to show exactly that.

"Carlisle—" Rosalie started.

"Now Rose or you're both going back to Washington tomorrow!" I yelled.

She and Emmett walked away, looking down at Jasper when they went past him.

I went over and kneeled beside him while Edward explained what happened to Esme and Bella, who soon joined us.

I made sure Jasper was okay and helped him up once he had recovered. Emmett had cracked his skin around his neck. It was very dangerous and I would definitely have to deal with it in the morning.

"Hey, Carlisle—" Alice started.

"I am still very upset with you." I cut her off before walking away beside Jasper to make sure he was 100 percent.

"Esme, you need to hunt." Edward said.

"Yeah, I'll do that now."

"I'm coming; I don't really want to stick around here."

"Okay, Carlisle, Bella, do you want to come?" Esme asked.

Bella accepted the invitation but I decided it was best not to leave these 4 unsupervised for the time being.

"Yeah, that's a good idea…" Edward said, hearing my reasoning before I declined.

"We'll be back later." Esme said before following Bella outside.
