A/N: Sorry for the lack of update. Busy me! I babysat and had to do some stuff to help me in a contest. The time flew by! I didn't forget about you though!
Chapter 25 – I Needed Comfort
(Rosalie POV)
I knew he was putting up a strong front; I just needed to tear it down. To break his protective walls and get him back. I knew what I had to do.
I ran to my cell phone and called Tanya.
"Hi?" Tanya asked when she picked up the phone.
"You listen here and you listen real good..."
"What do you want?" Tanya sneered. Wow, thought we were friends. Oh wait; she's trying to get with my man! We definitely are not friends.
"Tanya, you know that Emmett and I are close! We're a couple!" I hissed into the phone. I pulled the phone a little away from my ear, not wanting to be close to Tanya. Not even through the phone.
"Last time I checked. Ya weren't." She said in a calm voice through the phone. I gripped the phone tighter. Can't this shit just be done? Emmett and I were doing fine then Royce came back, messed with my emotions and then Emmett fell into Tanya's bitch trap.
Life can be so confusing and unfair.
Very unfair, actually.
"Well, we had a rough patch, but I still love him." I explained into the phone. I tried to keep my voice light; I didn't want a war with Tanya.
I just wanted to set her straight.
She needs to show respect to what is mine.
Starting with Emmett.
"Did you sleep with him?" Tanya asked. I narrowed my eyes.
"No, Why? I love him and sleeping with him isn't the first thing on my agenda. He's more than a bed buddy for me." I seethed into the phone.
"He's pretty good in bed, I love that about him." Tanya replied easily. I gripped the phone even tighter.
"Tanya," I started.
"Rosalie." She cut me off.
"When did you become a bitch? We were friends." I asked her with a rough voice. Tanya sighed.
"I know Rosalie, but Emmett told me that you picked someone else. I like this guy." She explained.
"Royce came back." I stated.
"And you need two men?" Tanya quipped. "Polygamy's your thing?"
"No, Royce came back. Emmett thought I would go back to Royce and I did – for comfort really. Then Emmett ran off to you, kind of like a rebound now that I think of it…" I explained dryly. "I am done with this Tanya, I thought you were liking that guy from the bar… What's his name?"
"James. But he has this Victoria bitch." She replied with the same dry tone that I used.
"I'm sorry to hear that." I said truthfully. I heard Tanya sigh.
"Thanks Rosalie." She whispered and she was barely audible.
"Please, let me try to work things out with Emmett." I begged. Suddenly, before I heard Tanya answer, the phone was slipped from my loosened grip. I turned around and saw Emmett standing there with the phone in his hands.
"Tanya, maybe we shouldn't be together. You deserve someone who loves you and I'm nothing more than a one-night stand. Someone else owns my heart." Emmett spoke into the phone. He hung up right after. I'm sure he didn't even let Tanya reply. I couldn't help the smile that crept upon my face.
We just looked at each other.
"How long have you been listening?" I asked gently.
Emmett shrugged before answering. "Long enough."
"I'm pretty jealous of that girl that owns your heart." I joked, trying to lighten the thick tension between us. He chuckled and stepped closer.
"It's pretty hard to be jealous of yourself, baby." He whispered into my ear. I wrapped my arms around him, slowly. I looked up into his eyes to see if I what I was doing was okay. He nodded and wrapped his arms around me too.
"I'm sorry I even gave Royce a second glance." I murmured into his chest. He patted my hair with his large hand.
"I'm sorry I slept with Tanya." He whispered.
"I needed comfort, so I went to Royce…" I explained.
"I needed comfort, so I gave into Tanya." He explained.
We both needed comfort, so we went out for comfort. I was jealous that I wasn't there to comfort him. I was pissed at myself that I was a bitch and hurt him. I hated that Royce came back. But now I know I won't let anything come between my and this man.
My man.
"I love you." I said.
"I love you too." He whispered and leaned somehow closer. "I heard you say you loved me to Tanya. That's when I knew whom my heart belonged to. I missed you the entire time we were apart."
I felt a tear escape my eye and fall down onto his chest.
"Lets not go through that again." I begged in a whisper.
"I'm done with that shit." Emmett explained. I nodded in agreement. "To make you feel better, Tanya sucked in bed."
I laughed. "I bet I could do better."
"Want to find out Miss Hale?" He asked me with a wink.
"I'd love to." I smirked. I grabbed his hand and dragged him upstairs to my room.
A/N: Yeah, Rose gets what she wants! As I said, I'm done with chapter after chapter being their soap opera.
Review? Do you think Jasper and Alice need some drama now?
