Chapter 1:
APOV:
"Emmett! I yelled. I had just gotten back from the best shopping trip and had found the best movie for Emmett. Emmett came running down the stairs.
"What is it, Al." he asked worried.
"Well,"I said a little mad, (I hated when they called me Al) "I did have something for you...But then you called me Al, so." Emmett started to jump up and down.
"Tell me what it is! Tell me! Tell me! TELL ME!"
"Okay, Okay, I got you this." I tossed the DVD I had bought to him.
"Over The Hedge?" he asked.
"Yeah, I knew how much you liked squirrels, so I-"
"It has squirrels!" he shouted.
"Yes, Emmett, it has a squirrel."
"I want to watch it NOW!" he said excitedly. Emmett ran over to his portable DVD player and put it in. As always he did not fast-forward through the previews. When it started his face saddened.
"What's wrong Emmett?"
"That's a racoon, Al, not a squirrel."
"The squirrel comes out later, just keep watching."
"Oh," he said and resumed watching.
Ten minutes later and when I came back he was still watching, only a little wild-eyed. He was sitting cross-legged on the couch, chewing on his finger nail. He looked entranced, or something.
I knew he was watching a part with the squirrel because he started to rock back and forth. When it was over he stared at the blank screen for a long time and then took a nap.
