Rosalie POV:
Our guests had arrived and I smiled at Emmett. We were so excited to share our news. Once everyone got to the kitchen, I sat on the counter and Emmett squeezed my hand.
"So I know everyone is confused on why we decided to do dinner at our place. It's odd for us too, however it is something we definitely want to keep doing. But future dinners will be for us to have fun and tonight's dinner is for us to share some exciting news.", Emmett started.
I held up my left hand, smiling at our family and friends. "We're getting married!".
Everyone gasped and cheered for us. "But there's more!", I continued. "We're getting married July 14!".
Esme and Carlisle hugged us first, congratulating us on the news. Next was Alice and Jasper. Ali was super excited, despite knowing she'll have a big bump in our wedding. Last was Bella and Edward. They were excited that Emmett had finally popped the question.
After everyone made their rounds, Emmett told us to go get in the pool while he grabbed some beers and got the grill going. I gave him a kiss, smiling at him. "I love you.", He said as he kissed me again.
"I love you more.", I smiled, hopping off of the counter. I grabbed my towel and walked outside.
"I can't believe he finally asked you to marry him. I really thought it would happen months ago. Like honestly 3 months ago.", Alice laughed as we both took off our clothes and stood in our swim suits. I smiled at her bump.
"Heck no. I wasn't expecting it for at least another 6 months or so. But now it's happening and it's happening fast.", I said as we got into the pool. I held onto the wall, easing myself in because the water was a little cold compared to my steamy shower.
"Why is it happening so fast?", She eyeballed me. "Do you have a secret baby?".
"Noooo! No babies for a while. We're just ready for it and don't want to wait long. I made a compromise with him for when we do get married, and we're both ready for it. But no babies right now. Give us like 3 years.", We walked around the pool, watching Bella get in.
"3 years? Why so long?", She asked.
"We just want to enjoy married life for a while. You know, being able to do what you want, when you want. If you want to take a trip for the weekend, you can. I want to be able to enjoy my sleep a little bit longer.", I explained.
"That makes sense. I'm glad Jasper and I made it a year into our marriage before getting pregnant. What about you, Bells? You've been married 3 years now.".
"Uh, I don't know. We've talked about having our own babies or just adopting our kids. We just haven't made that choice yet.", She smiled at us.
I smiled at them. It was nice to know that no one was rushing into babies and they were wanting to enjoy their marriage. Although, Ali accidentally got pregnant, I'm glad she was able to at least get a year of marriage in.
Our party had ended and by the time it was over, the men were 6 beers and 4 shots deep. Thankfully, us girls didn't drink so they had a safe ride home. Dinner was great and everyone was still so excited for us at the end.
I cleaned up the kitchen, putting dishes in the dishwasher. I felt Emmett's wet body behind me and his lips against my neck.
"I love you.", his words slurred. I rolled my eyes, chuckling at him. He was drunk off of 6 beers and it was solely because he had court today and didn't eat anything. He moved up by my ear and his hands were on my hips.
"You're not getting any, babe. You're drunk and soaking wet.", I turned to him. His eyes were droopy and he lacked energy to hold himself up.
"But, why?", He pouted, running a hand across my breast. I tried to push back the pleasure from his touch in order to show him I wasn't okay with this. We had both agreed to not drink as much as we used to. And we both knew if we were going to drink heavily, we needed to eat first so it wouldn't affect us as bad.
"No, Emmett.", I stood firm on my decision. "Let's get you upstairs and dry.", I sighed. I was trying not to be mad at him for being drunk, but more for him not eating properly.
I walked behind him, supporting his body as we made our way upstairs. I was praying he didn't lose his balance and knock us both down. I bit my lip, pushing him up. We finally made it to our room and I pushed him to the bathroom. "Sit on the floor", I instructed. I watched him slide down the cabinets, and lean against the bathtub.
I grabbed a towel and helped him pull off his swim trucks. "Try to dry yourself off.", I handed him a towel. "I'm going to find you some dry clothes.". I walked into our room, opening a drawer. I pulled out a pair of boxers and shorts.
"Rosie?", he called from the bathroom.
"Yes?", I answered as I looked for a shirt.
"I miss you.", He mumbled drunkenly. I rolled my eyes, grabbing a shirt and walking back to the bathroom.
"Are you dry?", I asked as I walked in. I looked down at him and noticed he had fallen asleep while still being naked. I grabbed the towel and dried were I could still see water. I shook him. "Wake up so you can get some clothes on", I told him. He groaned, pushing my hands away. I loved this man, but I didn't have the strength to try to get him dressed while he's passed out. I put his clothes on the counter and grabbed a blanket. He was sleeping in the bathroom tonight.
After I made sure he'd be warm, I went downstairs and finished up the dishes. I made sure the kitchen looked semi clean and I would just finish it in the morning. As I turned off the lights and made sure the doors were locked, I sent a text to Ali.
'Your brother is passed out in the bathroom. I hope your night is going better than ours.'
I walked upstairs, taking my swimsuit off and throwing it in the dirty clothes. I walked into the bathroom and stepped over Emmett's body to get into the shower. I washed the pool water from my skin, and washed my hair. I was trying to ignore that my fiancé was passed out right outside and he was probably not going to wake up until the morning time.
I washed the soap from my body and hair and shut off the water. As I stepped out, I was careful to not slip over Emmett. I wrapped my body and hair in a towel and checked my phone.
'Damn. He isn't a light weight. Wtf happened?'
I replied to her text and sat my phone down. 'The dumb dumb had court all day and hasn't eaten anything except what we had for dinner. He was drunk by the third beer and just kept going.'
I slid on a pair of panties and one of Emmett's t shirts before I turned off the light and climbed into bed.
I woke up and felt an arm over me. Good news is my fiancé survived his night and made it to bed eventually. I rolled over and kissed his cheek before moving from under him. I walked downstairs to make a cup of coffee. I started the Keurig as I pulled out the coffee creamer. I yawned big.
The time was 8:30 and we had to meet at the venue at 10. I would most likely end up drinking my coffee while getting ready. I was also going to have to wake up Emmett and hope he gets his shit together in time. I poured the creamer into my coffee and headed back upstairs. I sat my coffee cup on the bathroom counter then went to wake Emmett up.
"Hey, it's 8:30. We need to be at the venue at 10.", I shook him. He jumped, raising his head and looking around.
He rubbed his eye and yawned. "What time did we go to bed?".
"Close to midnight. I don't know when you came to bed after passing out in the bathroom", I replied, watching him sit up. He held the blanket over his waist.
"Did we have drunken sex?", He asked. "I faintly remember kissing you, but I have no memory of anything after that.".
"We didn't have sex. You wanted to and I told you no because you were too shit faced to even hold your body up.", I replied. I walked to the closet to find some clothes for today. I pulled out a pair of jeans and a nice shirt. I laid my clothes on the bed and headed back into the bathroom.
"I'm sorry I got drunk last night.", He apologized as he went to the bathroom. I took a sip of my coffee and began doing my hair.
"It's okay. I wasn't upset that you got drunk. It happens. I've done it multiple times in our relationship. I was upset that you didn't eat anything all day and ended up so shit faced after 3 beers.", I explained as he washed his hands. He dried his hands off and kissed my cheek.
"I promise to eat before I start drinking.". I turned and gave him a kiss. "I feel terrible.".
"Don't feel terrible. Like I said, it happens and I've been there.". I watched him in the mirror as I straightened my hair. He quickly brushed his teeth before going to get dressed. I began to think about the venue and our wedding planning. Once we booked the venue and an officiant, there wouldn't be much more to do. I would need to go get my dress, but I knew exactly what I wanted so that wouldn't take long.
I finished up my hair and brushed my teeth. After getting dressed, I walked downstairs with my cup of coffee and transferred it to a thermos.
"Are you ready to go?", I asked from the kitchen. "It's 9:20. We need to get going.".
