In to Deep

The days passed by quickly sometimes I had bad days but they slowly grew smaller and smaller in number as Emmett persistently found ways to make me laugh.

It felt safe to be with him, the hole where my heart was supposed to be seemed almost full at times….

I found laughter in sometimes the silliest of things.

Emmett saw everything in a whole new perspective, and he was more then willing to share it with me…..

Bad days still loomed over me I felt it when I'd catch him staring at me when, he thought I wasn't looking.

My mind would shutdown.

Trying not to think about what I'd been seeing lately in his actions, words, and those eyes, that seemed to never end when I dared to return his gaze.

Everything would go black, all I could feel in a far corner of conciseness was my body's violent shaking.

The bliss of this place only lasted for what seemed a few seconds and then I'd open my eyes to Emmett gently shaking my shoulders.

I always drowned in his eyes, they looked so curious, so willing to help even though he couldn't do anything. He was too nice to ask me what was wrong and why it continuously happened.

I pulled back the curtains to another snowy day; the sun seemed almost blinding as it reflected off the sparkling surface.

Snow… so cold, and dangerous it was the one season we seemed to match… we could probably pass for ice.

I figured I spend my day like I always did during winter, inside and away from the bitter reminder that I couldn't feel the freezing cold or worry about frostbite.

This was what I was doing, moping on my bed when Emmett came in

" Hey Rose I have a great idea for-

"Rose are you ok??"

"I'm fine I just hate snow, I don't feel like doing anything today"

He was almost as annoying as Edward sometimes since next thing I knew he was sitting next to me and with a small smile "You don't have to be…… human to enjoy snow"

I winced it hurt that he always knew what I was thinking and he didn't even know the whole story..

" I don't want to ok…."

I was amazed he was actually leaving without a fight, there had to be a catch…

"Emmett get it over with what's the catch??"

He turned around with a huge smile, and though it seemed impossible as soon as he saw my glare aimed at him, his smile got even bigger.

He tried not to chuckle as he responded " I just don't get it…. that's all"

" Don't get….. what??" I slowly stood up with a quizzical look.

Then he took a small step forward and emphasized each teasing word. "That you of all people would be afraid of snow"

Rage shot me forward I was up in his face in less then two seconds "I'm not afraid of Snow!! I stammered into his amused face.

All he did was look into my eyes almost like he was going to kis-

"Ok ok then prove it lets go" he whispered each word, as soon as he turned his back on my face a shiver ran down the base of my spine.

It had to be my imagination, I took a shaky step forward and then before my confidence could leave me, I darted down the stairs into the kitchen to find a beautiful winter coat set out on the table.

I turned around and caught a slight blur of black hair as Alice ran from the room. Without looking I knew she had a smile of triumph on her face.

I slowly put on the black coat, admiring it as I felt the silky material snug on my skin.

I hesitantly looked toward the back door, it was only a few seconds run to my room..

" Rose, going out to enjoy the snow??" I turned around to face Edward, his amused grin gave me the rest of the strength to go face the snow and worse Emmett.

"Yes I don't suppose you'll be joining us??"

I knew his answer before I asked the question, but hey miracles could happen…

" No I've got some business to attend to, it'll be a miracle if I get there on time"

I glared at him and he turned so I couldn't see him laugh.

Hoping the door would be iced shut a horrible excuse but none the less one, I shoved on the handle my hopes buried as I looked out, and saw the snowflakes that slowly fell to the ground. Where was Emmett anyway??

I looked to the right to see Emmett shoving a huge ball of snow my way.

"Ok Rose you make the head and I'll get the middle."

" Make a head…. what??" .

" The snowman's head… please tell me you have made a snowman before"

I looked at him and smiled with confidence

" A snowman of course go ahead and get started, I'll make the…. the head".

This wiped off his amused grin and left him raising his eyebrows, quickly shaking his head he said "Ok I'll be back in a second…"

It almost made me burst with laughter as I watched him slowly turn and walk away probably wondering why I had lied to him.

As soon as he was out of sight I straddled the side of the house's gutters and squirmed my way to the top.

I set my self over the huge ball of snow Emmett had left behind, and after hearing Emmett's distance calling " Rose??", I shoved together my own lumpy version of a snowball.

I probably would have seen him round the corner of the house

but I was to busy remembering the past when all the boys would gain together and have hours of fun tossing slosh at each other, what then seemed absurd now seemed so exciting.

My flashback was soon interrupted by a small crunch that I assumed was coming a few feet away from our snowman site.

I peered over the edge of the roof expecting Emmett to come rolling a medium sized snowball when I heard a crunch that sent shivers through my body.

I turned and almost rammed my face into Emmett's

" Having fun??"

Maybe if he hadn't been so close..

My body immediately reacted by shoving itself far away which sent me plummeting to the snowy floor.

I could have landed on my feet but all I could think about was how close he was, he smelled of pine and nature, it sent butterflies down my stomach.

Powder flew everywhere and as soon as I tried to prop myself up, Emmett was leaning over me.

" Rose are you ok, I'm so sorry I had no idea… you just…. I'm sorry"

All I could do was drown in his gaze as he got even closer and then his lips touched mine.

For a split second fire spread from my lips to the very tips of my toes.

Then all I could see was Royce everywhere…. snickering as he ruined me… I could taste the alcohol he had just consumed.

Untended tears threatened to stream down my face as I held completely still, shock riveting my body.

"Rose I'm so sorry you where just…. so close…I'm sorry, Rose??"

My eyes opened to a blurry man who loomed so close to my face…

A shrill shriek escaped my mouth and the man jumped back a few feet, as soon as I was free I was running, anywhere as long as it was far away.

I could feel my brain threaten to shut down as Emmett called my name, his voice quickly faded as I closed my eyes and drowned into the darkness.

Words slowly flowed through my brain

Royce…..Emmett….so close…the fire……best friend…loves me…

The words where to painful I sank deeper into unconsciousness where words meant nothing….

A/N: Hope you enjoyed this chapter,it took me awhile to write at first I couldn't figure out what to do with Emmett & Rosalie after two days I had a page and ahalf. I got on tonight and the words seemed to flow onto the screen. If I get 6 reviews I'll put on another chapter till then (;
