Chapter 6:

Emmett POV

My life has never been funnier than it has become since Edward brought Bella Swan into it. Her with her stupid human mistakes; she does things, things we vampires could never, ever do…like trip on her dress on her wedding day!

Alice 'saw' that that would happen, and I busted out laughing. Edward looked at Bella affectionately, and she blushed a bright red.

"Maybe you should shorten the dress, Alice," Esme suggested, smiling despite herself.

Alice nodded reassuringly, "Don't worry, Bella. I won't let your wedding day end with you on the ground."

"Even though that's where you spend most of your time," I smirked, and Bella laughed. I heard Jasper stifle a laugh, which he disguised as a cough.

I turned around to look at him, and Jasper grinned. Alice shook her head at us, but a smile was visible on her small face.

"Let's just relax for now," Bella said, mainly to Alice, "We can fix the dress tomorrow."

Alice nodded, "Okay, Bella. Whatever you want."

Bella opened her mouth in shock, "Alice! You are actually listening to what I want."

Alice laughed her high-pitched laugh. Rosalie, from where she was sitting on my lap, spoke suddenly, "I'm going upstairs." Then she was gone.

I looked at Bella, but she seemed unfazed by Rosalie. Then, I made the mistake of actually thinking with Edward in the room. I wondered if I should go upstairs and see what was wrong with my Rose. But Edward, being the nosy guy that he is, shook his head slightly. I stared at him. I hated it when Edward told me what to do. But I didn't really have to listen to him, now did I? I mean, he may be older than me, but I was bigger; I could take him. And besides, I knew where he lived.

I looked back at Edward, and he was laughing hysterically. It took me a minute to realize I'd thought that. Well, since we were playing mental games, I looked at Bella and smiled.

Edward glanced at me. Then, I thought. Wow…Bella sure is pretty. I may have a chance with her. After all, I work out. And I'm a vampire. Put those together, and I'm an invincible girl magnet!

Edward closed his eyes and shook his head. "All brawn and no brains," he muttered, low enough for us to hear.

"What was that?' Esme asked, looking from Edward to me suspiciously.

"Nothing," Edward answered innocently.

Carlisle glanced at Edward, "Who is 'all brawn and no brains'?"

"Oh, that's Emmett," Jasper answered playfully, "But we all knew that." Alice, Jasper, Bella, and Edward laughed.

I don't know why they all think I'm so dumb. Maybe it's because they are all jealous of my good looks…

Edward laughed, and I noticed a moment too late I'd thought that, and he was listening. Still.
