Chapter 8 - EMMETT!!
Disclaimer: I do not own twilight or any of the character, Stephanie Meyers own them
This is Esme and Carlisle's Chapter. Just a quick reminder since it has been a while. Towards the ending of Chapter two the kids left Esme and Carlisle, and now Esme and Carlisle is following Kyle, their sales guy, to find a car for Esme.
Esme POV
After the kids ran off to find cars for themselves, I turned back to Carlisle. "I really hope they don't cause any trouble." I said to Carlisle as we followed Kyle to look for a car for me. We stopped at a car that looked nice, but I didn't want this car because I wanted a car that can hold everyone.
"Here, we have the Jaguar XK-Series Trims. It has a V* 32 – Valve, with a MPFI Engine, and it also has a horsepower of 300. So what do you think?" He asked looking at both of us. "It doesn't look like you can fit a lot of people in there." I said to Kyle.
"Ok." He said starting to think. "I got it," he said leaving his thoughts. "Follow me, I know the perfect car for you," he said as he started to walk towards another group of arrived to another group of cars that looked like mini-vans. "Ok, by what I figured out from the last car, you seem like a mother and have children. Am I correct?" Kyle asked while leaning against a red car.
"Yes, I have five children." I said to him with a smile. "Well, here is one of the best type of car for a mother like yourself." He said as he stopped leaning on the car. "This here is a Dod-" he said before he was interrupted by a loud booming voice.
"HEY, GUESS WHAT?" We all turned are heads to see my children walking towards us. "What?" Carlisle said as they got closer. "I GOT A HUMMER!" Emmett said as he had a huge grin on his face. "What about your Jeep? I thought you love your Jeep," I asked confused to why he would want a different car. "I did love my car before I saw this Hummer. It has some awesome feature like a DVD player with wireless headphones, heated windshield wiper that can remove snow and ice." Emmett said as he still had his huge smile.
"That is nice de-" Before I could finish he continued. "It also has one of the coolest things in the world. It has a little TV screen, and it turns on when you put your car in reverse, and when you do that it shows a rear view of the back and you can look at it instead of turning around and looking in back." "Not that you ever do look in the back." I head Edward mumble.
"That is nice dear." I said turning to Rose. "Did your fi-" Before I could ask Rose if she found a car Emmett cut in, "Also, it can go OFF- ROAD. Can you believe it? A car that has the most awesome stuff in it can also go off-road. I finally found my dream car. Can't you believe it?" Emmett said with an awed expression, probably thinking about his Hummer.
I turned back to Rose, and asked my unfinished question I never got to ask, "Did you find a car Rose?" "No, I decided to wait because I've only had my BMW for two years, and just thought I could wait." she said. I turned to Alice about to ask her if she found a car, but I guess she saw me ask her. "Oh, I found my dream car too. I got a PORSCHE." She said screaming out the last work.
"That's nice dear. What about you, Jasp-" I said before noticing Jasper wasn't there. "Where is Jasper?" I asked a little confused. "Oh, he got mad because all we did was make suggestions about what car he should get." Alice said like it was nothing. "Where did he go?" I ask a little worried even though I knew he would be ok.
"I don't know he just stormed off." Rose said this time. I noticed Bella next to Alice. "What about you dear? Did you and Edward find a car?" I ask just noticing Edward was nowhere to be found. I was about to ask where he was, knowing he'd never leave Bella side.
"To answer the question your thinking, I left Edward by some group of cars because he was being too controlling about which car I should get and yes I did find a car." Bella said before Emmett added on. "More like Bella got pissed at Edward, and left him in the trunk." Emmett said laughing. "Why was he in the trunk?" Carlisle asked just as confused as I am. "Because," Alice said joining Emmett in laughing. "Bella left Edward sometime ago, and then he found us and we started laughing because he broke a car and -" before Alice could finish Carlisle said, "He broke a car? How did he do that? Wait don't answer that." Carlisle said.
"Is anyone hurt?" I asked worried if any humans were around. "No, no one was hurt." Emmett said still laughing. I was relieved no one was hurt. "What else happen? Alice?" Carlisle asked. "Well, while we were laughing at him, he left and I warned him Bella was going to be mad, but he still left. When he found Bella, he used the Slim Jim to open the trun-"
"That is where my Slim Jim went" Rose said interrupting Alice. "Why do you have a Slim Jim, Rose?" Carlisle asked. "Welllll..." Rose said not wanting to answer it. "Never mind, continue Alice." Carlisle said.
"As I was saying. Edward used the Slim Jim to open the trunk and he hid there to try and protect Bella from something, which I don't know what. When Bella made a U turn, Edward wasn't prepared and ended up bumping into the side of the trunk and just so you know, he made a dent in the car. Bella heard the noise and stopped the car and she found Edward in the trunk. She closed the trunk and drove back to the car lot and left Edward in the trunk." Alice said trying not to laugh.
"Is he still there?" I asked wanting to run there to get him out. "No, he got out by the emergency lever in the trunk; all cars have them now and days." Alice said calming down a little a moment later, we found Edward and Jasper coming towards us laughing. "What's so funny?" Emmett asked confused.
"Nothing", Jasper said calming down. No one really pressed the issue because Bella was still mad at Edward. Kyle got our attention back. "This car here is a 2009 Dodge Caravan, it has automatic doors and will open and close with by pressing this button here." Kyle said pushing a button on a car remote. "COOL! Let me see." Emmett said snatching the remote out of Kyle's hand. Emmett started to press the button and we could see the door opening and closing, opening and closing, "What does this do?" Emmett said.
"Don't pr-", was all Kyle got out before we heard the car alarm go off. Emmett was pressing buttons on the remote to try to turn the alarm off, and Kyle just snatched the remote out of Emmett's hands. Kyle, press one button and then the alarm went off. "How did you do that?" Emmett asked amazed.
"You just press that button right here," he said while pointing to a button. "Right here", Emmett said. "No, not th-" Kyle said before Emmett set the alarm off again. Kyle just sighed and pressed the same button before. "Never mind", Kyle said moving towards the Caravan. "This car here won five stars for the safest car, and is the top five best family cars. Your kids can check the back out, but just please don't break anything." He said looking directly at Emmett.
"What?" Emmett asked as I saw the rest of the family giving a pointed glance at him. "Why does everyone think I'm going to break something?" Emmett said.
"Because," Rose said still looking at him. "You always do. Do you remember the time when you broke my car trying to prove that you could break missile proof glass that Esme and Carlisle installed. Or the time when you decided to slide down the stair rail and then there ended up being a big hole in the wall because of you, or-" Before Rose could continue Emmett interrupted. "Ok, I get it. I won't break anything," he said backing away.
Once Kyle unlocked the door, Emmett rushed into the car, making the car rock. I just shook my head, and got into the car. Kyle explained the different things the car had, while Carlisle and I listened. I couldn't understand most of the things he said, but it did seem like Carlisle knew what he was talking about. Not two minutes later we heard a crash then, "EMMETT!"
A/N: (I was so close to ending this chapter right here, but decided to be nice and continue.)
Rose POV
After Emmett rushed into the caravan almost tipping it, I followed in. Emmett was sitting in the front seat, sitting there or more like jumping in his seat. I sat in the last front seat next to Emmett while Jasper, Alice, Bella, and Edward sat in the back. I noticed that Alice ended up sitting on Jasper lap because there wasn't a seat for Alice; not that she minded. After I got settled in the seat, I noticed it was very comfortable, and I looked at Emmett to see how he liked the car, but he was too busy messing with the knobs in front of him. "Emmett!" I said. "Stop, playing with the knobs, you're going to break it." I said to him knowing if he played with them any longer he was going to break them.
"Jeez Rose, you suck out all the fun," Emmett said crossing his arms. Not five seconds later he found something else to mess with. He was feeling around below his seat. "What are you doing Emmett?" I asked him. "I'm trying to put my seat down so I can take a quick nap." He said still feeling around.
"Emmett, you can't sleep," I said shaking my head. "I know that, but Kyle doesn't know that." He said looking up in front where Esme, Carlisle, and Kyle were looking at some of the features up in front. "Here we are." Emmett said finding a lever.
"I don't th-" before I could finish. Emmett seat started to spin around. "Cool!" He said spinning around. "Emmett, sometimes I think you are really a five-year- old in a 19 year old body." I said. "I'm actually a 74 year old vampire in a 19 year old body." He said with a smirk on his face. I didn't say anything and just rolled my eyes.
After a minute his eyes caught something, I looked to where he was looking. He was looking at the ground, to where there was a latch or something. Emmett reached down and pulled the latch open and saw a metal pole, and a plastic rectangle object. "What's this?" Emmett said lifting the pole in one hand and the rectangle object in the other.
"That's a table." Bella said looking at the two objects. "How can it be a table?" Emmett said staring at the two objects. "Here" Bella said pulling another latch that was between Emmett's and my seat and taking the pole and sticking it somewhere in the latch and then connecting the rectangle object to the pole.
"Ohhhhh." Emmett said realizing how it was a table. "I wonder how strong it is?" He asked as he raised both arms. "N-" was all I got out before he slammed both arms down, bringing the table down. "EMMETT!" Everyone except Carlisle, Esme, and Kyle said. The top of the table cracked the window and ended up somewhere in the car while the pole was still attached to the bottom of the car bent.
Carlisle POV
When we heard a crash and Esme, Kyle, and I looked in back to see a metal pole connected to the bottom of the car bent. "What h-" was all Kyle could get out, he was almost speechless. "Emmett, what did you do?" Esme said as she had a stern face on. "I wanted to see how strong the table is," he said with a smile on his face.
"Where is the table?" Kyle asked as soon as he could speak. "I don't know." Emmett said shrugging his shoulders. I turned to Kyle "I'm so sorry, we will pay for the damage Emmett made." I said to Kyle with a soft smile on my face. "Ok." Kyle said still looking at the bent metal pole. "So, how do you like the Caravan?" Kyle asked Esme.
"I like it and it would be the perfect car but," Esme said thinking. "But what?" Kyle asked probably wondering what the problem is. It's too small for my family. If it had one more seat then I would buy it, but it's too small." Esme said as she looked around the car. "Ok, I think I have the perfect car for you." Kyle said getting out of the car, "Follow me, and I'll show you."
Bella POV
After Emmett broke the table to the Caravan, Kyle led us to another set of cars. I was still little mad at Edward, but I knew I couldn't stay mad at him forever. Kyle let us Maroon car that seemed like the perfect car for Esme. "Here is the Mercedes GL 550. It can fit up to eight people and drives very well on uneven terrains."
"I love it!" Esme said as she ran towards it. "We'll buy it."Carlisle said to Kyle as he looked towards Esme with a smile on his face. "Don't you want to test drive it?" Kyle asked. "No, I don't think this car will give us any problem and I think it's time to get home anyway." Carlisle said facing towards Kyle.
"Ok, just meet me in the office when you're ready to pay for the cars and it was nice doing business with you." Kyle said reaching his hand out for Carlisle to shake. "It was good doing business with you too. Sorry for all the damage my family has done." Carlisle said as he shook Kyle's hand.
Carlisle turned towards us. "Let's go pay for the cars and head home." Carlisle said with a huge smile on his face. I think everyone was happy that it was time to go, well almost everyone.
"I don't want to go!" Emmett said stomping his feet. "Emmett this isn't a playground," Rose said rolling her eyes. "Don't you want to play with your Hummer when you get home?" She said with a smile. "YEAH, lets go!" Emmett said running towards the office, while the rest of us walk.
Edward walked next to me, "Bella, I sorry. I just wanted a car that was safe for you." He said dazzling me. "You're forgiven." I said as I held out my hand for him. "Thank you love", he said as we headed off to the office.
One more Chapter left, I'm sad that it's going to end but the story must end somehow. Also, If I get at least five reviews, I will put up a sneak peek to "The Blue Empress", next chapter. If I get ten, I give you the first chapter to the "Blue Empress." So, Review
Sneek Peek Chapter 9:
"They must have called for backups", I thought to myself. "I need to get home or else I lose the bet." "How should I do it", I said to myself in deep thought. Not a moment later, I decided what my next plan was.
Hmm. Who do you think it is? Review, the more reviews I receive the faster I post the next chapter and don't forget I need at least five reviews and I'll give you a sneak peek to "The Blue Empress". If I get ten, you'll get the first chapter.
