Chapter five. Over protective brother.
I put on my bikini under my shorts and vest. I grabbed a bag, stuffed in some sunscreen, a towel, a change of clothes and some money.
I raced back down the stairs.
"Why d'you get changed again?" Emmett's voice startled me.
"I'm going out", I explained.
"I thought you were hanging out with me and Edward today", Emmett sighed. I walked into the kitchen and sat on the counter. Emmett followed.
"Well, I got another invitation. To the beach", I shrugged, "so I'm going."
"Fine, go get changed, I'll drive you", Emmett said sticking his head in the fridge just as Edward appeared. He leaned against the side of the door, amused.
"What do you mean, go get changed? I am changed", I snapped.
Emmett's head stuck back out.
"You're not going out like that", he said shaking his head.
"What? Like what?" I shot back at him.
"Like…. that! Those are too…short", he commented eyeing my shorts.
"Yes, Emmett, that's why they're called shorts because they're…oh, I don't know…short!"
"I think she looks fine", Edward added. Emmett glared at him.
"Thank you, Edward", I said gratefully.
"But I can see your legs!" Emmett protested.
"So? Jeez, how will you react when I'm in my bikini", I sighed heavily.
"YOU WILL NOT WEAR A BIKINI!"
Emmett's voice is like the roar of thunder. Literally.
"What? What am I suppose to wear?" I yelled, "I'm going to the beach for fuck's sake!"
"She has a point", Edward chipped in. another cold glare was sent from Emmett.
"Well…can't you wear one of those…one piece suites?" Emmett suggested.
"You don't mind Rosalie wearing a bikini", I muttered.
"Yeah…well, she's not my sister, is she? She's my girlfriend so there's a difference", he snapped.
"I don't care. I'm so sick and tired of you bossing me around Emmet", I snapped back, "couldn't you just lay off? For one minute, stop acting like you're my dad and act like a brother?"
"I am acting like your brother", Emmett growled.
"Ok."
"Good."
"Fine."
"Alright."
"Sure."
I hopped off the counter and walked past Edward into the hallway.
My phone beeped.
B there in 5 mins, babe. Wanna hang around my place after wards? Kisesnluv_Jake
From where I was I could hear Emmett and Edward having some weird whisper argument in the kitchen.
Sure. Ur place. Whos home? E-za-bel-la
"…Her who she's going with? She'll be fine…"
"You don't know that, man. She's fifteen for crying out loud…"
"Yeah, fifteen, not two. Seriously, you're acting too protective, Emmett…"
"I'm just looking out for her, she's my sister!"
"I know man, but you don't act like that with Alice, do you?"
"What's your point? I know jasper, and I know Alice. She won't do anything stupid. But Bella's…she's…."
"What?" I snapped. I skipped over to the kitchen, "I'm what, Emmett?"
"…Unpredictable…", he sighed. My phone beeped again.
No one's home. Me + u alone. I'm here, knock or ur cuming? Kisesnluv_Jake
"I'm going. See you later", I said walking back out again. Emmett followed me.
"Don't you want a ride?" he asked. I turned around and noticed Edward behind him.
"No. Jacob's picking me up", I told him.
"Jacob? As in Jacob black?" he growled.
"Yes, is there a problem now?" I hissed.
Oh yeah, there was. Emmett looked like he was going to punch something. I looked up at him.
"Jessica and Angela will be there too", I assured him, "and Lauren and Tyler and some others. Ok?"
"Why can't Jessica pick you up?" he asked.
"Don't know. Jake asked first", I shrugged.
"Oh, so it's Jake now, is it?" he sneered. I sighed and opened the door.
"Bye Emmett. See ya Edward", I called out as I ran into the car with Jacob. He grinned.
"Hey Bells. Missed you, babe."
