It had been 10 years since Emmett and I got together. Tula was still staying in her room doing nothing. She'd barely come downstairs, and when she did, I noticed how dark her eyes were getting. I started worrying about her, even if she was a complete and total idiot. Jasper could sense my worry because one day he asked:
"Tam, you've been worried for the past month now, what's wrong?"
So, I gave in. "I'm worried about Tula, she stays locked in her room all day, every day, 24 hours a day and she hasn't hunted for the past what, 2 months now?" I explained to him.
"Don't worry about her. She'll be just fine." He replied convincingly.
I was still worrying so Jasper sent a few waves of calm towards me. It was at that moment I realized: Oh my god, I'm in love with Jasper. When the realization hit, Jasper clearly sensed my mood change to confusslement because he asked me
"Tam, why did your mood just change from worry to confuzzled?" I was hesitant before telling him, at this point he and Alice had broken up due to Alice's determination to finding out about her past. But I told him anyway
"Jasper, I think I'm in love with you." His face was SHOCKED. I suddenly felt a wave of guilt come over me so I broke the silence by saying:
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything." That's when his face changed from shock to... empathic?
"No, it's okay Tammy, it's just... ever since I sensed your depression all those years ago... I started thinking about you more. You'd appear in my dreams and sometimes I'd have nightmares about losing you." I was awestruck.
As soon as my shock blew over, I decided to reply with "You did? What about you and Alice, when you were together?" He looked dumbfounded but replied anyway with:
"I fell out of love with Alice, shortly after realizing I was in love with you." I was seemingly... surprised. That's when it happened, mutually, Jasper and I kissed... It sent shivers up my spine, the good kind. The kind that made me want more.
Emmett's POV:
I walked into the Living Room to ask Tammy if she wanted to go out but when I arrived in the living room, I froze in my tracks... There she and Jasper were, kissing. I was so hurt; I ran out soundlessly at Vampire speed and got into my room less than a minute later.
I was so, so hurt. I went to tell Rosalie what I just walked in on but she wasn't home so I decided to call her.
"Hey Rosalie, I need to talk to you..." I said with a tone of sadness in my voice.
She immediately knew something was up
"What is it?! Are you okay?!" She practically screamed down the phone.
"Yeah, it's just...I walked in on Tammy and Jasper kissing..." I said sorrowfully.
"Oh my god, Emmett!" She said with sympathy.
"I'll be right home!" She continued.
"Thanks, Rose," I replied with sorrow. Less than a minute later, Rose was there, in my room.
"I went into the living room to see if Tam wanted to go out or something..." I trail off. Rose could tell I was holding back on something because of her response:
"Why did you want to ask her to go out?" I showed her a small black box and I opened it, to reveal an engagement ring.
"Oh my..." Rose whispered.
"I was going to propose to her if she agreed to come out with me," I said, still full of sorrow.
