Chapter 2
Jaspers POV
I'm starting to have second thoughts about this…………..
First, Emmett insisted that we both put on our best clothes and cologne and shower – in other words, he's planning something special. He also had a very strange vibe around him which I don't know how to place, but I'm guessing that it's somewhere between excited and hyper. That's not exactly surprising, as Emmett's always hyper, so I'm not sure if its just him or something to do with what's we're going to do. Oh god I wish I had Edward here to tell me what he's thinking.
"Jasper hurry up. What's taking you so long?" Emmett said
"Well, you said to have a good shower so I did. Anyway, I can't find the shirt you told me to wear." I said. I know that's not true, the shirt is right next to me, but I don't really feel like going with Emmett like this. I'd better put the shirt on before Emmett crashes down the door. I let a wave of calmness hit Emmett, who instantly calmed down.
"Hey! What the hell! It took me ages to get that hyper! Jasper c'mon, it won't be fun if we're not really hyper!" Emmett said.
I said "Well that's just too bad. If you're crazy like that, you're going to crash down a building or something. And we don't want to make Carlisle suspicious, and we definitely don't want a visit from the Volturi after all the stuff that happened with Edward."
"Oh, please. I'm not going to kill a building. I'm not that much of an idiot." Emmett said.
"Really? Cos it doesn't seem that way to me." I said.
"Jasper, I'll be careful. I promise. Just please, it won't be fun if we're not hyper." Emmett said.
"Ugh, fine then." I said. I made him hyper again.
"Woooooooooooooooooooo! Ah, the joys of hyperness!" he shouted.
"Shhhhhh! Shut up, or Carlisle is going to come and be all suspicious, and give us one of his hour- long lectures." I said. Too late. I already heard Carlisle coming upstairs.
"Emmett, what are you doing? I know I have supernatural ears, but I think the people in Seattle could have heard that." He said
"Sorry. Jasper just made me really hyper." Emmett said
"You asked for it. Literally." I said
"Yeah, well, I'm ten times more hyper than I was in the first place." Emmett said
"It's not my fault. You know my powers always go to extremes." I said
"You're acting like three – year – olds. Just please be quiet, and try to be a bit more careful" Carlisle said.
"Sorry" I said.
"Why are you two all dressed up anyway?" Carlisle said
Oh no. there's no way we're going to get out of this one.
"We're going to Seattle" Emmett said.
What an idiot! What are we going to tell Carlisle now! There's no way he's going to believe that we're going shopping or something like that.
"What are you going to do in Seattle?" Carlisle asked
"We're going shopping" Emmett said.
My brother is the biggest idiot in the world.
"You're going shopping." Carlisle said sarcastically
"Yep." Emmett said
"Really." Carlisle asked
"Yeah." Emmett said.
"And what are you going to buy." Carlisle asked
"A dress or handbags or shoes or something like that" Emmett said.
Jesus. Sometimes I really ask myself why I listened to Alice and joined this family of weirdo's.
"Are you serious?" Carlisle asked
"Yeah. We just want to show the girls that we've really missed them and that we weren't just forgetting them while they're away." Said Emmett
"That's very thoughtful of you, guys. They'll definitely appreciate that." Carlisle said.
Wow. That was a good one. Sometimes I have to hand it to him; he is much cleverer than he comes across, and he's the best at making up excuses.
Carlisle slowly waked back downstairs, but I could feel that he totally bought it, and wasn't in the least suspicious. We went out to the garage.
"So, which car do you want to take?" Emmett asked
"We should borrow Bella's Ferrari. I'm sure she won't mind." I said.
"Yeah. Come on then!" Emmett said. "I'm driving, by the way."
About half an hour later, we were speeding along the highway at about 200 miles per hour.
"How the hell did you manage to make up that excuse! Carlisle totally bought it!" I said
"Yeah, well, you know I'm the master." Emmett said
"We do actually have to get stuff for the girls now though. Carlisle's going to be really suspicious if we come home without something." I said.
"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it
