Suddenly I was grabbed from behind and my feet left the ground as Emmett picked me up. I struggled in his hold, but it was pointless. He just held me, letting me sob and scream until there were not more tears or word that could come from me.

I stared at Edward who was rubbing his face where I had slapped him. He too had tears in his eyes. He spoke in a low voice.

"I am going to make us all a coffee. I want to make this right Ali, I really do."
