Hello you guys. Its ping pong player here. Okay so ALL of this updating thing has been my FAULT. please blame none on my best friend Twilightdancer93. She's been absolutely amazing for my lacking here. Recently one of my best friends for my whole life died, and although it isnt really an excuse ive still been mourning over her death. I took a bit more hardly then I should be. Again sorry for the lacking in updating here, everything should be getting back to track.
Look for the AN from Twilightdancer93 at the end of the chapter, and look for her chapter soon for the story :)
thanks for the patience you guys, n enjoy the story.
"You know I would Emmett if I could. But I don't have the money; much less the space. I can't take all of you in under my care. But if I could you know that I wouldn't even hesitate." Jasper was saying softly to me so no one else would hear our conversation. I bit my lip, racking things in my brain continuously bringing up things then pushing them away cause I knew the answer to it all.
"What about the inheritance? We got a lot of money from Mom and Dad didn't we?" I whispered.
"Emmett," Jasper sighed placing his hand on my shoulder. "That money is going for Alice's, Edwards and your college fund. I can't use that money on anything else unless it was a complete emergency. The Brown's take care of you guys just perfectly. Your not being abused here, you eat regularly, go to good schools, they watch over you guys. Your fine."
"That's the thing, fine. I want it to be perfect."
"I simply can't take you in, or my other brother and sister. I don't have the time, I don't have the money, I don't have the place, I just don't have anything to offer to you guys. I'm sorry Emmett." He released his hand and got out of the front door, heading to his car. I felt so abandon. So just 'left here' kind of a feeling. I hated it.
"Bye Jasper." I barely said goodbye before closing the Brown's front door. Alice was suddenly behind me, looking at me with eyes of desperation like I actually got Jasper to agree this time. I shook my head no, and a few tears escaped her eyes. I felt like I was breaking her heart all over again, after I had to tell her that our parents died cause of that fire. That broke her heart now this is.
"Did he already go?" Edward asked, running up to the window looking out through the cracks in the beige curtains. I frowned, nudging Alice's shoulder. She was closer to him, than anyone else in the family. She seemed to know how his mind worked. She understood the nudge, and went over to him. I went back up the stairs.
Sitting on my bed, I folded my arms behind my head and stared up at the ceiling. Being in Chicago was pretty cool with the scenery, the stores but I felt like it just wasn't me. Being here seemed out of place. Forks' was truly the only place I knew that made me feel secure, and things were normal. Chicago felt like a puzzle in a box that you buy, and as you keep on building onto it you realize that there's pieces of it missing. I couldn't seem to find the missing ones either.
Chicago sucked.
"Emmett are you hungry, darlin'?" Mrs. Brown asked me, cracking my door slightly open.
Mrs. Brown was a old lady. Around the age of fifty. I never really asked her what her age was, but that was just mine and the rest of my family's guess. Her hair was whitening, and turning into curls around her face. She had a slight southern accent, but nothing that thick. She was easy to understand, sweet and she listened to Edward when he needed it since he took our parents death the most hardest. He had nightmares still, and Mrs. Brown never had a problem to go and comfort him. She was a good woman.
"No thank you Mrs. Brown." I responded.
She frowned slightly. "Well okay dear, just call out if you are. I'll be in the kitchen feeding your siblings."
I nodded as she went her way out. I closed back my eyes, letting my mind speed off at a pace. I thought back about school and how the days went. They went pretty crappy. Not like the school was bad, or some of the students, just how the day went and how you could be in a room full of forty or so kids and don't know any of them. Pretty fucking gay.
From the thoughts of school it shifted to thoughts of Bella. That beautiful girl. I could hardly imagine what she looked like now, but it didn't stop me from wondering. I tried not to picture, or think about her too often, considering the pain it caused my heart. Loosing a best friend like tears a man apart. Truly does...
"Noo my turn!" She yelled.
"Oh you can stick that in your juice box! It's my turn! You got to have first pick last time." I argued.
"Emmett." She pouted out her lips.
My eyes squinted at her. "Stick. It. In. Your-"
"Juice box! I get it! But can I pretty please take that one! It looks soo good to my eyes!" Her eyes did bright up with the look of hunger as it landed on it.
"Your lucky. Lucky that I think your the most Amazing friend, ever. Or else I would not allow this." My chin jutted out at the thought.
Bella jumped up and down really fast, that as my eyes followed each time I started getting a headache. "Thank you Emmy! thank you thank you, Thank you!" She hugged me tightly.
"Your crazy." I muttered.
Her eyes gleamed with happiness, then sparked back up. Her hand reached out and took the last piece of the brownie. Even though it was suppose to be my turn to choose the most delicious brownie, I loved her enough to allow this to happen. But goodness that brownie did look tempting.
"Here." Bella licked her lips. She took the brownie and tore it in half the best she could. She gave me the other piece. The bigger one on top of that.
"I love you." She said, when she took her hand back to stuff her piece of the brownie in her mouth.
"I love you too." I smiled, before shoving mine in my mouth. My eyes closed on the best taste of gooy chocolate that melted in my mouth.
"I love you too Bella." I found myself saying out loud. My eyes snapped open realizing this.
I gritted my teeth. I was missing one person way too much. Emmett. She moved on. Now you have to. Find some hot girl at school, and stop being a pussy about this. Ugh. I got up from the bed and took out some homework. I worked on math first, getting my mind focused on Algebra. I got through the first fifteen problems, then decided to take a break. My attention span for math didn't last very long. I went through my schedule, and spent some time on finishing the map for social studies, and some lab result for science. It felt good to get that done.
As I took a deep breath to get back to my math homework there was a knock on my door, I silently thanked above me for staling me.
"Yeah?" I asked.
My door opened up, a sign of silver hair showing. Mrs. Brown.
"Hello, honey. Hate to disturb you in you work, but someone's on the phone asking for you." She said calmly, handing out the house phone towards me. I pulled my eyebrows in from confusion. Who the hell?
"Who is it?" I wondered.
"I believe the man said it was a Chief Swan."
"Holy hell." I breathed out slowly.
