When I finally made it down stairs, after singing to Desiree, I sat in Jacob's old recliner and grabbed Pet Sementary, the book I had been reading. After about ten minutes, I started feeling nervous again. I looked up room my book and saw someone.

"Hello, Bella. It's nice to see you, again." He said with a smile.

"Emmett?!" I screamed and almost tackled him because I was so happy. "My goodness, have I missed you! What are you doing here?" I grabbed his hand and pulled him over to the couch. Its been so long since I'd seen him it came to a point where Emmett smelt good to me.

"Well, I was in town doing some business and I couldn't take it anymore. I just had to see my baby sister!" He looked me up and down. "You're not a baby anymore...how old are you?"

I grinned at him. "I'm 24 now."

Emmett started to smell the air. "What in the world is that smell, it's kind of bitter and sour at the same time. Nasty! Is someone else here?"

I blushed. I knew that when I saw him I'd have to tell him about Desiree. Maybe it would cause Edward some of the pain he caused me... "My daughter is upstairs, but I don't know what is bitter or sour about her. She bathes everyday..."

It looked like Emmett was going to die from a stroke or something. "And...who is the father?"

I looked away from him. "Jacob."

"A WEREWOLF!?" Emmett yelled.

I heard Desiree whimper and get out of bed.

Mother mode kicked in. NOBODY made my child whimper. Or woke her up. I could tell Emmett was scared of me. I tried to imagine my face, and believe me, it wasn't pretty. I slapped him. "Emmett you boob, why did you wake her up!? I just had gotten her to sleep!"

"Mommy? Why did that big man scream?" Desiree whimpered, sat on my lap, and snuggled up to me as close as she could get. I wrapped my arms around her shaking frame.

"Desiree, this is...your uncle, Emmett, he's...he's my brother. Emmett, this is Desiree." The next thing that happened was so cute. Emmett took his huge hand and shook Desiree's small one. He could have easliy taken eight of Des's hands into one of his. I could tell that they would get along famously.

I knew it was a horrible lie to tell her, but I couldn't think of another one I could use. All of Jacob's friends were uncles to Des, why shouldn't mine?

"Uncle Emmett, can you change into a wolf like Uncle Embry?" She wondered.

Emmett shot me a look, but said , "No, but I can do something much better." Emmett grinned.

Desiree's eye's started to get that excited look in them that happened all the time. "What's that?"

"I can run faster than any of those--"I glared at him and kicked him. They werre my family too."Other uncles of yours!"

"Really? Can you give me a piggyback ride soon?"

"Soon, but not tonight, I have to leave in a little bit after I talk to your mother."

"Allllllrrrrigghht..." She looked up at me. "Do you want to talk to him alone?" I nodded. "Can I stay in your room for the night?"

"Sure, babe." She kissed me on the cheek and went up to bed--but not without falling up the stairs.

One thing I loved about her, she laughed when she fell down. It was a game to her. "You ok?" I yelled as I ran into the room. But she was already upstairs.

I slowly walked back into the livingroom to talk to Emmett. This should prove to be interisting...

Authors Note: So, tell me whatcha think! Reviews are always helpful. I plan to have at least one more posted by the time I go to bed though. If you have any questions about the story, or you dont understand something, I'll do my best to straighten it out to you. I know some of you wanted Edward back already, but when he does show up, I want to make sure it's good!
