Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I said it would be a oneshot, but due to the amazing reviews and reviewers, I will add one more chapter. If you want another chapter after this, too bad for you. I had to get the chapter out before the new year.
Disclaimer: If I owned Twilight, I wouldn't be here.

"Yes Mike, are you nervous?" I asked that vile being that thought he could touch Bella- my Bella- like that. I barely heard the sigh of relief that emanated itself from Bella's lips. I was to busy focusing on Mike freakin Newton, whose thoughts were getting so illicit, that I wanted to snap his puny neck.
He quickly puffed up his chest, thinking, I might still have a shot with Bella, so I better not screw this up by crying.
"Why would I be nervous of you Cullen? He asked me quickly, even though his answer was no, I could tell that he was nervous. Dreadfully. His heart beat had sped up greatly, and the blood was pumping through is blue veins like never before.
"Well, you should be." I spoke with pure ice in my voice. This kid really should be fearing for his life right now. "Bella love," I said just to make Mike more jealous. "I think you should get going to class." I finished with a glare at Newton. My look glower softened when I looked up at Bella and into her large, magnificent eyes. They were filled with fear, and warning?
As she stood up from the bleachers she passed Mike with a scowl at him, stood next to me, gave me a kiss on the cheek, and said, "Don't kill him. You really don't want to have to explain to my dad how you were the last person to see him, yet don't know how he was murdered." Like always, she was right. Then she walked out of the gym, only stumbling once. Immediately after Bella was out of earshot, Mike burst into tears.
"Don't kill me! Please… don't… kill me!" He stuttered out through his tears.
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't." I said grabbing his arms and standing him up so I could look him in the eye. I guess the pressure that I was slowly adding to his arms was beginning to hurt because he began to squirm. Good, I thought mercilessly.
He took a few gasping breaths to try to calm his pathetic little tears.
"Your-" gasp- "brother!" He almost whimpered.
"What about my brother?" I asked slowly adding more strength.
"Owie! Okay! The big one-"
"Emmett."
"Yeah, him. Well he paid me to play the nervous game on Bella!" Mike sputtered.
Without adding, or taking away pressure, in his thoughts, I saw the memory of Emmett finding a confused, and scared Mike after lunch, whispering something to him, and handing him fifty dollars. No wonder Mike had been late to biology.
"Don't do it again." I said giving his arms a quick squeeze. He would definitely have bruises there in the morning. Then I quickly walked off to English class
I made it just before the bell rang and quickly walked down the aisle to my seat beside Alice. She was about to launch into the differences of cream and beige with Angela, but her eyes glazed over and she looked almost in another world. She was having a vision.
"Alice?" Angela questioned while waving a hand in front of her face.
My pace picked up a bit, even though she came out of the vision as quickly as she went in to it.
She must have deemed it unimportant. I didn't really care that much. I was still figuring out with to do to Emmett. There was no way that I could let him get away with that.
Mrs. Porter walked into the classroom and went on with the lecture we were faced with today. Edgar Allen Poe. I scanned her mind and quickly wrote down the notes so if she asked to see them, I would have something to show her.
My mind drifted to what was going to happen to Emmett once we got home.
As I was picturing what would happen, Alice's thoughts drifted into my head.
Edward, I can see you two bashing into Jasper's bike. He's not going to be too happy if that happens.
Alice was right. I could only imagine what Jasper would do to us if we hurt his bike. He cared for that thing almost as much as Bella would a first edition copy of Wuthering Heights.
My decision changed about what I was going to do to Emmett. He deserved every bit of it. How dare he think he could pay that vile human to do that to my Bella. My muscles tensed when I thought of what Mike was thinking. Oh how I wanted to break his arm. So badly.
Oh for God's sake Edward, calm down. You're going to break your pencil.
Alice's thoughts flitted into my head. I rolled my eyes even though it was very probable.
In efforts to not break the thin writing implement, I decided to listen to the thoughts of my classmates.
Good job Mikey! Putting the moves on the brunette bombshell! I wish I had those guts. Thought Eric Yorkie.
Okay, that was a bad idea.
I decided to spend the last five minutes of class actually paying attention to the lecture Mrs. Porter was giving.
"Did anyone know that Poe, married his cousin?" She asked the class with raised eyebrows.
This definitely sparked some thoughts mostly about having sex with their cousins. Most of the class mentally shuddered. Most. Tyler Crowley didn't' think anything different of it. I always knew I didn't like that kid.
Finally after talking about how his wife and mother died of the same disease, the bell rang and I was off to meet Bella, and kick Emmett's butt.

"Hey Edward, can we go to your house?" Bella asked me as we turned out of the parking lot. I looked over at her and found that she had the most adorable, and pitiful- in a good way- expression on her breathtakingly beautiful face. Her bottom lip had jutted out into a pout and her already big, and round brown eyes got even larger, and rounder. She had been hanging out with Alice too much.
I couldn't decide. I knew Esme would be ecstatic to see Bella, but I didn't want her to know what Emmett had done.
"Please Edward! I haven't seen Esme in a while." She begged me, her pout becoming more pronounced.
I sighed, giving into Bella, and started for my house at a relatively slow speed. Ninety.
Her eyes lit up when she realized where they were headed. "Thank you Edward!" She exclaimed quickly.
I had to chuckle. She was always so polite.
"Of course love. Anything for you." I've go to let her know. "Bella, do you remember what happened with Newton today?" I paused, even though I knew that she hadn't forgotten.
Bella shuddered delicately and nodded.
"Well, Emmett paid him to do it." I said reluctantly. "So, I'm going to kill Emmett when we get home. Just thought I would give you a fair warning." I said as we traveled up the driveway. I couldn't wait.
Bella sat there stunned sort of. I don't think she thought that Emmett would do something like that, but I certainly did. After living with him for seventy- four years, I know what Emmett was capable of. And I knew that his brain wasn't always swiss cheese with the smarts, whisteling through the holes.
I quickly parked my car in the garage and helped Bella get out. Rose was in the garage, working on Alice's porche. It recently got a flat when she decided to go racing with Emmett.
"He's in the forest waiting for you." Rosalie said with a knowing smirk.
"Thanks Rose." I said quickly.
After depositing my love in the ecstatic arms of Esme, I took off out the front door.
As I ran, everything became a blur. I was barely aware of anything, yet hyper aware of everything at the same time.
When I found Emmett, he was sitting on a tree stump, laughing his boisterous laugh. As I turned to face him, I whispered words that I knew he would hear.
"You better run like a fucking grizzly is chasing you." And with that, we took off,
