Hey yall!

I was listening to I hate this part by the Pussycat Dolls while I wrote this chapter, but more to the melody and the piano part than the lyrics.

Enjoy!

Chapter 3: Love

Sometimes I just wish the world would disappear.

Carlisle and Esme's anniversary was coming up next week, and I needed to find an amazing present for them.

I had planned on going antique shopping with Emmett, but that didn't even get a second thought. He would surely break everything in the store, most likely attempting to play a game.

So I decided to shop online.

Now appears the question 'Where do I go?'

Luckily for me, I found a nice place selling cute little antique secretaries desks.

I wanted one with great sentimental value, so I had it inscribed with the words in Carlisle's wedding ring:

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves."
-- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

It really was a beautiful verse from the bible, and it made me reevaluate my relationships with the family.

-Love is patient

I'm getting there

-Love is kind

I only have a problem with that when I'm angry.

-It does not envy

No problem. People envy me, not the other way around, for the most part.

-It does not boast

Caught me there.

-It is not proud

There, too.

-It is not rude

Now I'm starting to worry.

-It is not self-seeking

…

-It is not easily angered

….

-it keeps no record of wrongs

Only in Emmett's case.

-Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in truth

Yes! I'm back on the record!

-It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves.

I love my family. I'd do anything for them.

It's strange how much something so small can make you think so much. I guess God really wants us to think about others with love.

It was Esme who chose this passage, and I think it describes her relationship with Carlisle perfectly.

I wonder if God really knows, really thinks about us.

"Oh my goodness, Rosalie, it's absolutely beautiful!" Esme couldn't have seemed more pleased to me.

She and Carlisle had gotten heart necklaces that were broken down the middle that had their verse on them from Alice and Jasper, and some vintage records from the year they were married for the first time from Edward and Bella.

Her pale skin seemed to be glowing. It was her and Carlisle's special day, and it meant a lot for them to be able to spend it with their family.

Emmett coughed, trying to grab the spotlight.

"Your name may be on the tag, but we all know that it was Rosalie that put thought into this stunning gift, Emmett." Carlisle was so sure of himself when he spoke, and no one, not even Emmett, could deny what he just said.

Soon after, Esme and Carlisle left on a celebratory hunt. I thought this would be a good time to talk with Emmett about our relationship.

Sure, he was a goofball, but he could be serious when he needed to be.

"Emmett, what makes us special?"

"What do you mean, Rose?"

"What makes us different from Carlisle and Esme, or Alice and Jasper, or even Edward and Bella?"

"Well, when you saw me at the verge of death, you didn't think I was ugly, or disgusting, and you didn't give much thought to killing me. You really were just worried about what was going to happen to me."

"And you Emmett, during your change barely ever said anything, almost no noise escaped from your lips, excluding the sound of your breathing."

" How many people can say, with truth, that they had nothing but love in their heart when they saw a person, that they didn't even know, being mauled to death by a bear?"

"I love you, Emmett."

"I love you too, Rose."

Sorry about the filler chapter.

Dont forget to suggest a name for Bella's car, a pic is now on my profile

Happy Reading!
