A/N Thanks to all of my lovely reviewers, here's chapter 6! I'm gonna warn you now. Most of this chapter will be pure Emmett/Rosalie fluff! So enjoy it. Also, I started a new story this afternoon, so go on over and read that if you like. Some reviews on that one would be nice too lol. R&R!
Finally some alone time with Emmett. I'd been so busy lately what with Gabrielle and the nursery that I'd barely had any time to even see my husband. I was so excited that I almost didn't care that we were spending the evening playing Wii Sports. It gave me a chance to bring out my competitive side anyway.
"15-love. I am so gonna beat you!" Emmett exclaimed.
"Not a chance," I replied, "your serve." He served the ball and I hit it making us tied. This game was gonna be interesting.
A few serves later, we were tied 40-40. Emmett served the ball, and I missed, meaning I lost game.
"What did I tell ya?" Emmett said smugly while planting a smooch on my forehead.
"Alright, you won that one, but I was just getting started," I warned him, "What do you want to play next?"
"How bout a round of bowling?" Emmett suggested.
"You're on, Em!" I exclaimed. Emmett went first, and bowled a strike. He went again, and knocked down 8 pins. I laughed and he snarled at me. I grinned.
I went next, and bowled 2 strikes in a row. Boy, did that make Emmett mad. Good sportsmanship is definitely not his strong suit. He kissed my cheek anyway, and then it was his turn again. It went on pretty much like that for the rest of the game. I won that one. 354 to 332. At least we were even now.
After bowling, we both got bored of playing the Wii, so we put in a movie. It was some cheesy romance, but Emmett didn't seem to care. He spent almost the whole movie kissing my neck, and whispering in my ear. The kissing slowly escalated. So much so, that neither of us noticed the movie had been over for about twenty minutes.
"You nervous?" he asked when he was finally able to pry his lips from mine.
"About what?" I responded.
"The baby, silly," he replied.
"No. I got over being nervous a long time ago. I can't wait!" I exclaimed.
"That's good because neither can I," said Emmett as I sat up to face him.
"Do you think I'll be a good mother?" I asked him.
"Absolutely," he replied, "You know why?"
"Why?" I asked curiously.
"Because you want it so badly, and you deserve it just as much."
"You're sweet," I told him.
"So are you," he said lovingly. He gave me another smooch, then reached for the remote. We ended up watching some 90s sitcom all night long. It wasn't that bad. At least I was spending time with my husband. The baby was supposed to arrive in 2-3 days, so who knows when I would get time like this with him again. For that reason, I wanted time to stand still for just a little longer. For other obvious reasons, those 2-3 days couldn't go by fast enough. Thinking about all of this made me almost tired, and I put my head on Emmett's chest. That moment was so peaceful, I probably would've fallen asleep if I could.
Awhile later I went into the kitchen to find Carlisle preparing a cup of blood for Gabrielle.
"Good morning," he told me, "I guess you two had fun last night." He winked.
"Yeah, we sure did," I replied. I was almost too distracted to notice that Carlisle was acting funny. "Carlisle, what is that smirk on your face?" I asked him.
"Ask Alice," he replied. I turned to see that Alice had entered the kitchen.
"What did you see?" I asked excitedly.
"Today's the day!" she exclaimed. It took me a second to understand what she was talking about. "Are you positive?" I questioned.
"Absolutely!" she replied, jumping up and down.
"Rosalie, you and Emmett should go hunting," Carlisle suggested, "You haven't in awhile, and who knows when you'll get another chance." I hesitated until Emmett came up behind me.
"I'll bring my phone and Alice can call me when it happens," he assured me. I sighed in defeat and followed Emmett out the door.
We ran all the way to Canada, which took just under an hour. I found a few elk. Emmett found a nice grizzly. We ran around for about an hour, just hunting anything we could find. We stopped to watch the sunrise together, which was gorgeous. Even though we had both seen it thousands of times, it was special to watch it together with no one else around. Once the sun was up, Emmett checked his phone and found a text from Alice:
Poor Gabrielle can barely breath! I think that means it'll be soon, but take ur time, k? I'll let u know as soon as something happens. Have fun! =)
From then on, I was too excited to hunt. Emmett found a few more deer, then he was finished too. We decided to start heading back slowly because we hadn't heard from Alice in over an hour. It was nice to just enjoy the scenery for awhile. No stress. No worrying. Just the two of us walking through the woods. I was almost completely relaxed when Emmett's phone went off. I immediately tensed up as I watched Emmett answer. Emmett's face looked crazy as he tried to tell Alice to calm down. It would've been comical if I weren't so nervous. I listened intently but I couldn't hear anything but various people yelling. It was so nerve wracking and frustrating that I eventually just walked away and let Emmett talk. After watching from afar for a little bit, I noticed Emmett's facial expression started to change. It went from annoyance and trying to hear to concern. Was something wrong? I opened my mouth to ask what was happening, but I was cut off when Emmett turned on the speakerphone. For a second, all I could hear was Alice squealing, then another noise caught my ear. It was a cry. I looked at Emmett and he looked like he would be crying if he could. We were parents!
A/N Are you surprised? I originally wanted to put one more chapter in before it happened, but I couldn't think of anything else for this chapter. Hope you enjoyed it, and review if you wanna find out what the baby is!
