Chapter 2- Sleeping Beauty

A/N: Sorry about the wait!!! Very busy lately. I was originally going to do this chapter in Bella's point of view before I decided that I wanted more from the amazing Emmett! Just a note: I had to change some things around so that they would fit into my storyline better so that's why things are all happening sooner. I wanted to thank who reviewed, favorited, and story alerted. Y'all are the bestest ever!!!!!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT! OR EMMETT! (SIGH)

Carlisle and Esme walked in, they had been out hunting. "What's all the excitement about?" Esme asked curiously.

I smiled as Alice excitedly told them what'd she'd seen. My parents smiled happily. I'd finally found the one I wanted, and never mind that I couldn't have her.

Everyone turned around to look at Alice, who had a distant look on her face, the look she wore when she was looking into the future. She squealed and ran over to me.

"Where's the fire?" I asked her.

Edward laughed, obviously having read someone's thoughts. "It appears Alice got a little impatient to meet Bella so on Friday she will come over and hang out with the family. Alice and Rosalie are going to have quite a bit of fun dressing her up, " Edward said, a crooked smile on his face at the thought of what his wife and sister were going to do to Emmett's future girlfriend.

"Alice," Esme said, sighing and shaking her head.

Alice laughed. "Saturday's your day though Emmett. On Friday, just as she's about to leave, you ask her out, and you said that you'd pick her up Saturday morning at ten. What are you going to do?" Alice said, her voice high pitched as she asked that question. She was giddy, and I realized that this whole situation would be good. Except for the issue of me being a vampire and her being a human. I hadn't spent any time with humans over the past 80 years that didn't involve school or a sporting event. How was I supposed to act?

"You'll have to be very careful," Edward said, reading my thoughts. "She's very breakable, and I know you don't want to hurt her. You'll have to stay in complete control. One wrong move, one moment that you forget what she is, that you're not cautious or gentle enough with her, and you could hurt her. Or kill her. And I know you don't want that." He said quietly. He had always believed in protecting the innocents, he had never slipped up once as a vampire. It was something I sort of admired him for.

"I will be," I stated confidently. I wouldn't ever be able to hurt my Bella. I had known her for less than 8 hours, and I was already completely and irrevocably in love with her. I was still very concerned about how human dates went, it'd been so long. What if she wondered why I wasn't drinking or eating anything? What if she asked about the bone-chilling temperature of my skin? Was I supposed to lie to her?

"I know you will be. You love her so much," Alice said. Edward smiled again, seeing the future in Alice's thoughts that I wouldn't hurt Bella.

"Oh Emmett, I'm so happy for you!" Esme said, pulling me into a motherly hug. It had hurt her to see me alone while the rest of the family all had someone.

"Thanks Mom."

"Yeah, Emmett's gonna get the most wanted girl in Forks!" Jasper said, high-fiving me.

"Seriously though, at school today, Alice is lucky I didn't tear her clothes off. The lust was nearly unbearable. She's got every boy in the town riled up," Jasper said, smiling at me, knowing I wouldn't be taking this news very well. I growled.

"I know what you mean Jasper. I almost drug Rosalie out of the lunchroom, all of the desires and lusty thoughts were about to undermine my self-control. There isn't a boy at Forks High School who doesn't want her." I growled again. Everyone would soon know Bella as Emmett Cullen's girlfriend, and no one should mess with me. Anyone I found out having anything but innocent thoughts of Bella…well let's just say it wouldn't end so well for them. Then on the second hand, I couldn't blame them for wanting her. I wanted her. I would just make sure everyone knew who she belonged to.

"So where you will take her?" Carlisle asked. I thought about the movies and dinner, but I'd have to think of some way to explain why I wasn't eating dinner.

"Movies and dinner. Oh, and Emmett, please do not tell her that you can't eat solid food and that you are tube fed every night. The future doesn't work out so well for you on that one." Alice said. I couldn't help but laugh. I could see how that would come back to haunt me. Like the fact she saw me with food today in the cafeteria. I really needed to figure out what I was going to tell her. I'd figure it out eventually.

"Emmett, just tell her that you're not hungry." Edward said in a slightly annoyed yet amused tone.

I hadn't thought of that one. I had to admit I was in way over my head with all this human stuff. Edward was lucky because he saw through human heads, he didn't forget entirely how it was like being human, seeing how they reacted in his head all the time. "That might just work…" I mused. Everyone laughed.

"We're going to go shopping! We've got to pick up some stuff to for when Bella comes over." Alice said excitedly, grabbing Esme and Rosalie and steering them out the door. A few seconds later we heard car doors slam and the sound of an engine accelerating. Alice was always doing that, randomly blurting something out o

I wondered what I would do for the rest of the night. It would be another 12 hours before I would see my Bella again. I decided to play X-Box, something that usually distracted me well. I played for about three hours when I decided I needed a new distraction. 9 hours and 33 minutes until I would see my Bella again. It was an agonizing thought. I decided I'd go to her house and watch her sleep, I just needed to see her again. It felt weird though, having to resort to watching her sleep because I impossibly couldn't stand to be away from her. I know I didn't remember much of my human life, I was pretty sure that people watching you sleep was considered scary. Out of desperation though, I decided it was my only option.

I went into Carlisle's study to tell him I was leaving. The other three still weren't back from shopping.

"Hey Carlisle, I'm going. I'll be back in the morning," I said.

"Where are you going son?" Carlisle asked curiously.

"To see Bella. It's hard to be away from her," I told him truthfully. Carlisle gave me a strange look as I said that.

"Be careful, though, that she can't see you. She might get scared if she wakes and sees you in her tree or something at this time of night."

"I will. Thanks Dad. Bye." I told him.

"Bye."

I ran downstairs and outside at vampire speed, and headed into Forks. When I reached town I followed Bella's scent to a small house on the outskirts of Forks that backed into the thick woods. I noticed her scent was concentrated on the top right floor of her house, presumably that was where her bedroom was located. I noticed the window and the tall pine near it. I swiftly climbed the tree, sitting on a thick branch when I was level with her window. I had conveniently located myself so that she wouldn't be able to see me, but I could see her.

She was lying in her bed across the room, the covers pulled up to her chin. If she was breathtaking when she was awake, she was absolutely stunning in her sleep. Her silky brown hair was fanned over her pillow. She looked so peaceful.

Admiring her beauty I wondered how she would look as a vampire. If she was this beautiful as a human, I knew she would be ridiculously hot as a vampire. Bella would be able to make Rosalie self-conscious when she was turned. That thought made me smile, a little healthy competition would be good for Rose.

I thought about whether or not she'd have any gifts. I knew she sure as hell could seduce men well enough as a human that she might have an unusual gift of seduction or something like that. Heidi from the Volturri, a "fisherman" as they called her, could do something like that. She was able to attract humans and lure them into Volterra where the Volturri drank their blood. It was a possibility that Bella would be able to do something similar.

Or since Edward couldn't read her thoughts, I wondered if she would be some sort of shield. The thought was insanely interesting to me. If she was able to resist his mind now as a human, as a vampire this resisting would only intensify. But I didn't yet know if it was only Edward's gift she was able to resist or if their were other things she would be able to block even as a human. I knew already that Alice could see her thoughts and that Jasper could sense her emotions, but I wondered if once she was a vampire she would be able to block those gifts as well. It all made me very curious.

Just then I froze, Bella said, "It's too wet!!!" I thought she had woken up, but then realized that she was only sleep talking. That made me chuckle because I knew that Bella would probably be embarrassed by that sort of thing, but I enjoyed it, for it was like a window into her dreams. "It's too wet!!" She said again, turning onto her side so that her back was facing me. I laughed under my breath. She had told me in biology how much she disliked rain. It appeared that the sound of the rain made her restless, judging by the way she was tossing and turning in her sleep. The sleep talking stopped a few hours later as she fell into a deeper sleep. I could sit here for the rest of forever and watch her sleep. The sound of her breathing, the beat of her heart, and the scent of her hair were all intoxicating. This late night peeping-tom thing that I was doing though would definitely hold me over until I was able to talk to her tomorrow though.

As the sun began to rise I left with the thought that it would only be a couple more hours until I would see my Bella again.

When I got home I took a shower and got ready for school. I finished up my homework quickly. I'd been to high school enough that this was no longer challenging. I pretty much busied myself by watching Billy Madison. That movie always made me laugh.

"Emmett, you ready?" I heard Edward say from downstairs. I turned off the TV and ran downstairs, eager to see Bella again. We all piled into Edward's stupid Volvo. I hated that thing more and more every day. It was a pretty tight squeeze with all of us in there. We would be perfectly comfortable in my Jeep, but no, we had to take this to school every day.

"Wow," Jasper said, sighing, as we pulled into the school parking lot. "Tell me about it," said Edward from the front seat.

"What?" I asked.

"Oh Bella's still wanted. More than yesterday even. I would have thought that impossible." Edward said smiling.

Just as I was about to growl I caught Bella's scent. I turned around and saw her in the old red Chevy pulling in at the other end of the parking lot. I had noticed she was driving exceptionally slowly, it would have driven me crazy. She also had snow chains on her tires.

I hadn't noticed that it was really icy this morning. We'd gotten snow late last night then it rained turning the roads into pure ice. I never really paid much attention to the weather, it didn't affect me. I didn't remember Edward driving slower than usual but I had been to distracted with the thought of seeing Bella again to notice much else.

Then I heard Alice gasp and her eyes widen in horror, looking at the van that had just pulled in a little too quickly for the ice.

I watched the van, almost in slow motion, swing wildly on the ice. It was going to collide with the back of an old red Chevy truck. Bella's truck. She was bent down by the back tire,looking at the snow chains. She heard the squealing of the van and looked up at it in horror, knowing that she was going to die in about a second.

"Not my girl," was all I thought as I launched myself at Tyler Crowley's van.

Like it? Please review and let me know if I should continue. Also ideas are cool too!!!!!! Thanks guys!!! :D
