R POV

I slouched on his lap, wrapping my arm around his neck. " Please ?" He asked from the kitchen. I chuckled and shook my head.
" I promise you. As soon as we get to Vegas." I smiled at him, watching as he strolled over to the front door. He clapped his hands together, climaxing with a loud bang. "Fine. Let's go then !" I heard him exclaim, picking our case up. I laughed as they al rose from their seats, even Emmett leaving me standing, weakly on my feet. Frank smiled at me and I strolled over to him,linking our arms together. We began walking to the front door together, occasionally stopping to switch lights off. " Tell me. Did you ever tye Carlisle to your apron strings? You know - Keep him close when his mother left?" I asked, bending down to unplug a floorlamp. He sighed as I stood back up.
" Of course. I once dated a wench from the local. I brought her home one afternoon, just passed the Thames after some lunch from the sun in the sky. Perect breeze in the air, hitting you in the face if you walked the right way. We got home. I introduced her to Carlisle, as you do and I left to get her a beverage and when I came back,-" He paused and took in a large breathe, swallowing the lump in his throat, keeping him from crying."My boy was just shrivelled up in the corner of the kitchen,grasping his kne-" He broke down and wiped his eye. I wrapped my arms around him and we stopped. He buried his head onto my chest and cried. " Sorry. I just really wanted him to be happy." He wept into my chest and sighed a deep sigh.
" The lass was Athiest and me and Carlisle were heavy Christian at the time. She just lashed out !" He whispered, followed by a shudder. I cuddled him and cooed him.
"I would never, ever , ever do hat those women did to your son. EVER. " I promised, kissing his dry, bristley, gray hair. He patted my back several times.
"Your a good kid." He laughed, his tears,soaking my shirt.

" Guys? Let roll. Renn, I think your going in my car with Emmett. Dad, your going with Alice and Jasper. Bells and Edward with be hitching with Rose. Yay (!) We have emmett for 5 hours (!)" He smiled his smile and Frank let go of me, turning to face his boy. He nodded and walked from me, pacing over to the door and exiting. He did turn and flashed me a small smile before hopping into Emmett's jeep. " What was all that about?" Carlisle asked, taking me by the hand. I shook my head and kissed his cheek. "I'm never going to hurt you Carlisle." I whispered into his ear, walking from the house. He paused and hesitated audibly before locking the front door.
" Unless I want you to right ?" He chuckled, smiling his raunchy smile. "Your Dad told me." I whispered again as we walked to his car. The sun was shining through the trees, glistening and shining off the ice and snow. He opened the passenger door for me and escorted me inside and slammed the door shut when my seatbelt was on. " HI ! " He shouted from behind me. " ROADTRIP ! " He shouted again.

Carlisle POV

I slid in next to them, switching the ignition on. "VEGAS!" He shouted, leaning forward, poking his head between our shoulders. Edward revved off ahead of us and Alice followed. I sighed and pressed my foot onto the gas, the car leaping away from the large greenhouse in the middle of the woods. " I gotta pee ! " Emmett whispered, just as we left the thick forest, expanding onto the tarmac. Renee laughed and I just sighed. " Can you not hold it until we get to the stop, just before we cross borders to Oregon?" She chuckled, turning round to him. He sighed and slouched back in his seat. " Yeah , I guess so " He breathed heavily and tapped his fingers on the seat next to him. Roughly two hours passed before it got too much. It got louder and louder, eventually making me pull over.
" Go " I told him, taking childlock from the back doors. He chuckled and breathed heavily again. " I don't need anymore ! "He whispered, tapping his fingers again.

I heard them both laugh and the rev of the engine, speeding down the highway. All I heard, passing the 'Welcome to Oregon' sign was:
" VEGAS BABY ! VEGAS ! GONNA GET LAID BABY IN VEGAS ! ". I heavily sighed and managed to catch up with the others. Edward had the top down in Rose's car and Alice was weaving between the lanes on the nearly-empty-road. I could feel the heat of the pre-evening sun, burn through the aluminum of the car sides. I took one hand from the wheel and took her hand into mine, cooling her. Soothing her. " Baby ? Jasper and Bella's signalling to you." She whispered, pointing through the windscreen with her free hand. I nodded and follwed the cars into the Services lane. Alices's silver Lotus Etna was infront, followed by Edwards,white Volkswagen convert. " Hey ? What car's this? My brother has one just like it but in blue." She whispered, running her free hand over the dash.
" Uhh a 1970 Shelby Gt500 Convertible, but I call her Shelly." I smiled, raising our hands to my lips, gently kissing hers. They did eventually turn in, parking at a space close to the exit. Emmett crawled through the front of the car and planted himself ontop of our hands. Renee opened up her door first and Emmett pushed himself past her, falling out of the door. "Emmett ? What are they doing to you in there? " Jasper quizzed, helping him up from the ground. " They were going to make out so they just threw me out ! " He pleaded, grinning at us. I cringed and opened up my side door, stepping out of it, unlinking our hands. The sun beamed onto my skin, alighting me like a thousand candles. " What's up ? We still have like 2 or 3 hours left." Renee asked, passing the front of the car, walking over to me. I held my hand out and she took it in a heartbeat, pulling herself closer to me. I kissed her head and Dad came closer to us. " Rosalie got carsick. " He whispered, making Renn heave.
" Is she alright ?" She asked from my chest.
" Yeah, she's taking a walk." Jasper chuckled, cracking open a bottle of water. I wrapped my arms around Renn's back and squeezed her tight.

" Guys , we're going to get a drink and some food. Take the top off this. " Emmett laughed, hitting the cars side.
" Don't mind if I do ! " Renn laughed, looking up at me.
" Ew Mom " Bells expressed, wandering into the sandy planes down off the side of a hill. Everybody wandered to the store , some walking in other directions.
" Would you help me with this Baby?" I asked, walking over to the car with her still round my waist.
I pulled the latches on both sides, slowly raising it from the car, releasing the white leather seating. " OK and fold it down ?" She asked, bending it along the creases. I nodded at her continued to fold it down. She flipped the boot open and pulled the bags out, making room for the roof. I slipped the top of the car into the boot, turning round to find her half naked, pulling her shorts up to her waist. " What ? Never seen me in my panties before ?" She laughed, folding her jeans back up and throwing them into the bag. I grabbed hold of the cooler on the red sand and cracked it open. There was deep mountains of ice and bottles of beer and cola.

I held up a beer to her and she took it from my hand. She raised the bottle to her mouth and cracked it open with her teeth. " Does that not hurt ?" Emmett asked from behind us. She laughed and took the cap from her mouth, twirling it about in her hands. " Not really. You get used to it. " She laughed, wandering over to the car, sliding over to the far side of it. "I'm driving" He shouted, rushing over to the drivers seat. Dad and everybody else came from the shop, Bella just edging over the sandy hills. They all dispersed to the other cars and jumped in, slamming the doors behind them. She patted the seat next to her and bit her lip so softly. " Let's go ! "Alice screamed, revving off into the distance, slowly followed by Dad. I smiled and walked over to the car and hopped into the back, her moving closer to me. " Vegas Baby ! " Emmett shouted again, revving off down the highway. The wind hit the car making 'whooshing' sounds. My ears were deafened by the sound of the engine crossing the hot, boiling tarmac. The sun slowly began to set into the desert hills. I could see the others in the cars infront, swerving between lanes on the dead, lonely road.

The sky darkened, miles at a time. She clung onto my shirt, drifting to sleep ,19 Miles from Vegas. We hit bumpy roads, covered in rocks and sharp pebbles. Emmett laughed as Edward cut Alice off in the road. I could hear her gasp and speed up. Police lights came from behind our car and indicated to Alice to pull over. Emmett howled with laughed, waking Renn up. " Jeez Emmett. Wheres the fire ? " She asked in a hazy tone.
" Alice is getting pulled over for swerving." He replied, passing Alice's little Lotus. We all sniggered and waved a smug waved at her as she handed the cop money. She flipped us off as the officer turned to inspect the car. We drove next to Edward and Bella, challenging them to a drag race from where we were in the middle of the desert until the large 'Welcome to Las Vegas' sign. Emmett pressed on the pedal hard and we shot off down the dark, bleak road.

Esme POV

I finished unpacking the cab, throwing my luggage onto the grey pavement. " Thank you Sir " I smiled at the cab driver. HE smiled and nodded back before turning back into the road. I gazed up at the curved building and looked at all it's beauty. I sighed and grabbed my bags, strolling inside to see the large, crystal white foyer. The crystal chandalier and the white roses on the small tables at the door was just breathtaking. I looked over at the check-in and walked over to it slowly. " Hi. I made a reservation for the Penthouse. Penthouse 1. " I pointed out, handing my card over to the hotel Manager. She looked up and smiled at me. Taking my card and scanning it as she done so. She typed in different letters and numbers before handing over my card and my room key. " Hope you have a pleasant stay with us ". I nodded and turned from her, looking for the nearest elevator. I took my bags into my hands and rushed over to the elevator, a huge grin on my small face. The elevator was completley mirrors except the door which was an oak finish on the other side. The flooring was a white, plush carpet with red accents in the corners. I pressed the very top button and waited for the doors to close.

The elevator shot upwards, leaving me with butterflies in my tummy. Ding! The elevator grinded down to a halt and opened up to let the white light pour inside. " Is this heaven?" I asked, exiting the shaft. I looked at the door at the other end of the long corridor and smiled.
" Penthouse 1 huh?" I giggled, rushing towards it, my key ready in my hand. I reached the door and looked around.
" I'm meeting Alice. We'll be at the Riv in 30. Don't keep me waiting!" She chuckled, her footsteps coming laughing was deep and hearty, straight from the gut. I shut my eyes firmly and sighed. "Hi Esme!" She squeaked. I turned my head to the side and saw her smiling and walking behind me. My eyes followed her and turned to face her, edging on the other side of me. My head flickered back to where she came from. I saw him heading back inside the door, slowly closing it over. I let out a quiet growl and turned the key in the door, unlocking Paradise. The dark blue carpet definetley made the cream walls stand out. I threw my bags inside and closed the door behind me. My back leaned against the door, hearing it crack made me jump. I growled louder and ran over to the bedroom, punching my hands down onto the mattress several times. I vented my anger for a long moment before going back into the main lounge area.
