Hey guys I just want to say thank you so much for all the comments. It mean a lot to me you guys like my story. Want to thanks my beta to.
I woke up on the first day off I'd had in a long time. The sun was coming in my window and I could feel the warmth hitting my face. It was starting to feel like spring finally. When I looked over to the clock it was ten am. I just laid there in my bed wondering if I should get up or go back to sleep.
After fighting myself over it for ten minutes I finally get up. I walk into the kitchen to get a bowl of Cheerios. I get my bowl out and put my cereal in it, then walk to the refrigerator to pull out my milk.
I open it and the worst smell came from within it. This is just fucking great I can't have my Cheerios without milk!
I put on my robe, grab my bowl of Cheerios and walk out into the hallway until I get to my friend Kim's place. I knock on the door, which she opens with a smile.
"Bella! I thought you died," she joked.
"You know I've heard that more and more now. Since I began working nights." I said walking in her place.
She looks at my bowl and laughs. "Ran out of milk again," she asked, walking into her kitchen.
"It went bad, I haven't had the time to go and get food."
She handed me the milk and I put some in the bowl before I sat at her table.
"Yeah, because you're working nonstop. It not good for you, you're going make yourself sick."
"What do you want me to do Kim? Its work nonstop with roof over my head or take off from work and live on the side of the road." I said as I took a bite.
She sat across from me and let out a sigh. "Can you talk to Sam? Maybe he wil let you work days again? "
"Ummm, I kind of like night. Better tips and I get time to work my story." Plus I see Emmett and all his glory.
It's been week since he walked me home. He'd been coming into work more but he was always with his friend, so we didn't talk much. He walked me home again, and it was nice to have someone to talk to as I went home. He asked a little about me and I told him I was from a small town in Washington. That I'd moved here to go to school for writing and that I'm working on my book which I hope I get done with soon.
Emmett never talks about himself much. He told me The Blondie aka (Jasper) is his best friend. They had been friends since they were nine. Emmett saw him being beat up and he helped Blondie out, since then they've been best friends. Mr. Tan is Jake they have been friends about ten years. Finally, Bronze guy is his younger brother Eddie. He told me Eddie is married to some girl name Alice and they have two kids. Which Emmett loves more than anything in the world. He told me he would like to have big family one day to call his own.
"What do you mean you like night time now? When Sam put you on it you were ready to kill someone. If I remember right you came to my place telling how much you hate nightshift!" She look at with confused look on her face. I look down at my Cheerios real fast.
"Bella Marie Swan please tell me this not over a guy!?"
"Maybe" I gave her shy smile. I like I was kid in trouble.
"Who he is and how did you met?"
"His name is Emmett; I met him when he came in one night."
"How old is he?"
"I don't know."
"What his last name?"
"I don't know."
"What does he do for a living?"
"I don't know."
"DO you know anything about him or are you just creepy stalker," she asked.
"He is 6'6, with really blue eyes, dark brown hair, he is really sweet, funny and he has brother." I said to her.
"Bella! What have I told you? You always get a last name so you can Google and Facebook him," she said as she hit her hand on the table.
"Like what you did with Jared," I asked as I took the last bit of my food.
"HEY MISSY! I knew that night I was going to married him," she said as she stuck her tongue out at me.
Kim met Jared our first year of college. When me and our other friend Angela went out one night. From that night on they are always with each other. Last summer they got married at the court house. It was nice, they had about six people there and I was one of them. Kim and Jared are one of those lovey-dovey couples. That make you sick to the point of wishing you had gun on hand. But they were made for each other, he is really good to and for her. I wish that I'll find someone who will love me as much as Jared loves Kim.
"So where is Jared, I thought he had the weekend off?"
"His does, but he got called in. I guess they have got a big job that needs to be done fast."
"I still don't know why you guys still live here. I mean you both have money and you could buy a nice little house so you can start popping out babies for him," I joke with her.
It was true, Jared worked for one of the best Counteracting places in the city and Kim helped run a daycare with one of her friends named Emily. So they had money to get out of this hell hole.
"If we move out where are you going to when you run out of milk?" She shot back
"I still have Angela." I said as the door was thrown open. It made Kim and I jump, we looked see who it was and there was Angela, holding something in her hand.
"Speak of the devil," I said as she put the paper down.
"This is bullshit, "She spat as she sat down
I picked up the paper and scanned over it. It was just saying we had a new landlord and that he was going to do some work on the place and some of the apartments that need it.
"You guys know what this means now right?"
"That we finally get landlord that cares," Kim asks confused.
"NO! That he is going to fix this place up and hike up the rent. Then me and Bella here are fucked." FUCK! She does have point we have a hell of a time making the rent now!
I put my hand over my face and ran them back in my hair. "Does it say who the new guy is?"
"No, only what you read on the paper. I guess he going to be around sometime to have meeting with all of us."
"Well guys stay calm until then. You don't know if he will bump the rent up or not yet." Kim said trying her best trying make us feel better.
"Kim is right we won't know thing more until the meeting," I said.
After Angela calmed down we talked about having a girl's night out. Jared had a poker game planned tonight. We made plans to go out to get some pizza then see a movie. I have little money on hand because of the tips Emmett had been leaving for me. After an hour I told then I would meet them later, I wanted to get some writing done before tonight.
I walked out Kim's door and walk up the hall to my place. When I saw Emmett's brother Eddie walking around the hall with Jared's boss and some other construction guys. I saw Jared with them and called him over real fast.
"Who that? "
"That's Mr. Cullen the new landlord."
"Oh, really," I huff as I cross my arms.
"Yea he has some good idea for the place."
"I bet he does."
After I talk to Jared I went into my place and went right to my phone to call Mr. Pain in My Ass.
He picked up after three rings. "Emmett here, talk."
"I'm going to kill you Emmett," I hiss through the phone.
I heard him chuckle at me. "That not the first time I've heard that before but it hurts coming from you Bells."
"Don't be cute with me Em! I know you made your brother to buy my apartment building!"
"No, I didn't make him do anything. We were hanging out one day and he said he knew the area and needed a project. I just told him about this one place that would be really nice, he would just have to fix it up. The rest was up to him so you shouldn't be mad at me sweetie."
Then it hit me, the first night he walked me home he said, "If you won't let me help you. I'll find away around you." This man going to be the death of me.
"Fine! You won this one Em."
"Good, so what are you doing to night Bells?"
"I'm going to catch pizza and movie with some friends of mine I haven't seen in a long time."
"What Pizza place?"
"Pinkies, he makes the best pizza in the city." I told him as I lay on my bed.
"I know the place well," He says as I hear him takes a seat too.
"What about you?"
"I'm out of town doing some stuff. So I think I'll just stay in my hotel room and watch the fight."
"Sounds fun."
"It would be more fun if you were here"
Oh god this how one of my wet dream started once. "Really now? What would we do," I ask in my best sexy voice.
"Well we wouldn't leave the room, if that's what you're asking Bella." He said in deep voice.
Oh kill me now.
"Sounds like you were thinking about this."
"I've been thinking about getting you alone in a room since the first time I saw you."
"What else have you been thinking about," I ask him.
"About kissing those pink lips of yours and making my way down to your neck. Moving my hands up your body until I reach your breast and rub them." Hearing him talk like this taking back the dreams. I move my hand down in my pants to help myself feel better letting out a moan as I do. I think he heard me because I hear him laughing like he was pleased.
"Then I would take your clothing slowly off of you. So you're just in your bra and underwear. Why don't you tell what the look like sweetheart, so I can picture them?"
"To tell you the truth I'm not wearing a bra just some blue underwear."
"Even better."
Then I heard a knock on the end of the line, "Yea what is it?" I heard the voice saying he was on the move or something and they need to go. "Bella I'm sorry for doing this but I need to go. Can you call me after your home from your night?"
"Yes, I'll call you when I get home," I said sadly
He told me he couldn't wait and hung up. I get up and took long cold shower. As I let the water do its work I kept thinking about Emmett; and how maybe he might be what I had been looking for so long. I can't help but think it was crazy thinking like this because I really don't know much about him but I feel so safe with him. I hope, just hope falling for him is not a mistake that would come bite me in the ass later on…
