Your Beautiful chapter 12
Bella (pov)
Jake and Edward have been gone for three days now and I am missing them like crazy. Emmett has been home but only for an hour or two and he has been really nice to me. I wonder if Mr. Jenkins had finally gotten a hold of him.
I saved the emails and had copies of them made but I didn't tell or show Emmett about them. I did read them to both to Edward and he thought that Jasper made the right move making Ali be a better person.
The email from the lawyer he said I should save and make copies of and that I should also find my own lawyer to help make sure I got treated fairly. I agreed that I would start looking for one.
Emmett even slept on in the guest bed room when he was here. This made me very happy. He was acting like old Emmett again. I like this also, even though I wasn't in love with him I did and I will always love him, he is the father to my children after all.
We are going to have dinner tonight and talk. I think it is about time that we did this, we have a lot of shit that needs to be said and I don't plan on holding anything back. He will know that I know all about Rosalie and Abby and that he has files for a divorce.
I don't plan on telling him that I know about Edward though. That would only hurt Edward and his chance of having some money for his future. I know he thinks that I am going to let him give me the money but I don't want it.
All I want is to be happy and for my kids to be happy, and Edward makes me happy. Along with my teaching and my writing. I texted Jake and Edward and let them know that Emmett wanted to have dinner with me tonight and that I was laying it all on the table.
Jake wishes that he was here for this and Edward want to come home now and be here also. I told them both that I would be fine. I don't know when but my backbone has returned and I'm not about to let it disappear again, ever.
I cooked my favorite meal, mushroom ravioli for dinner and some blush wine. Emmett got home around an hour ago. He headed up to the shower and to shave when he got here. Em also brought me flowers today.
My favorite ones, he sure is trying to suck up to me lately. He has asked me about Jake and Edward also a lot and said that Ali misses me and can't wait to talk to me again. I think he is trying to play nice and I will let him play nice but it isn't going to change a thing.
I texted Edward and told him about everything that Em had done and he wasn't happy but he trusts me and he loves me so he knows that it will be alright. He also sent me a picture texted of himself hold a pair of my underwear and said that he wanted something of mine to have with him.
I blushed and was laughing when Emmett walked in and gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Why are you blushing Bella? Who are you talking to?" Em asked. "I rolled my eyes because I knew he already know the answer because he thinks he put Edward up to this.
"It's Jake and Edward, they are just clowning around, you know them." I said
"How is it going for them did they get signed yet? I've meant to call Jake this week but I have forgotten, what a great father I am."
At least he knows he sucks as his father but I didn't say that and Emmett also was expecting me to say that he wasn't a bad dad to Jake but I didn't because he is just that.
"Well Emmett did you find time to call Ali? Then you should have found the same time to call your son." Is all I said.
"Your right my darling Bella, you always are sweetheart. How about we eat now so we can have desert after." He said.
I almost puked in my mouth, sure he was as handsome as every on the outside but I knew what was on the inside. Emmett winked at me and raised his eye brows. That is so cute when Edward does it but not when Emmett does it.
"I baked you an apple pie, I hear it's just like having sex." Because that was the only sex he was having tonight unless it was with himself.
"Thanks honey, that's my favorite, plus I love that movie that reference came from. Maybe we can go rent it and snuggle on the couch and watch it?" Em asked
"I think we should just start with dinner and see if we even want to hang out afterwards. Then maybe we can watch a movie together as long as you and I don't snuggle."
"Wow where is this ballsy Bella coming from? I love her and would like to see more of her from now on. I think if she came out to play more we would have had a lot more kids because babe I wouldn't be able to keep my hands off you."
I rolled my eyes at him and went to get the salad and rolls and mushroom ravioli. I made both our plates and poured myself a glass of wine and set down to eat my food.
"Bella, honey you forgot my drink." Emmett said. "No, I didn't you're a big boy I made your plate the least you could do is get your own damn drink."
"Ballsy, I want you so bad right now my hells bells." "Eat your dinner Emmett before it gets cold."
How I wish that Jake and Edward was here right now. Emmett hasn't wanted anything to do with me for so long in any kind of way I'm kinda scared he won't take no for an answer.
But deep down I know he is a lot of things, mean most of the time and the biggest ass I've ever meet but he is not someone that would take advantage of someone if they said no.
We finished dinner with a lot of small talk and he even came clean about a few things. He told me that he thinks we had grown apart and that a lot of it was his fault,( of course it was dip shit) and that he had made a big mistake and had had an affair with a coworker that ended in him having another child.
A baby girl name Abby. He didn't say who the mother was but I already knew everything that he had told me and more. I was waiting for him to tell me that he had paid Edward to flirt with and try to get me to fall in love with him (which it's too late I am already way to deeply in love with Edward).
But he never wants said a word about that or about Mr. Jenkins. I just smiled along while he talked, he kept waiting for me to cry I think but that wasn't going to happen now or ever, I'm done crying over Emmett Jacob McCarthy!
"Emmett I'm glad you told me all of this (and I truly was it was like the beginning of closer of this chapter in my life so I could start to write the next on e with Edward), it's been a really long time since you and I have just talked. Emmett I do love you, I always will and you will always be in my heart because we have been together for a long time and we share children together but I think you are right about one thing."
"Stop Bella, that's where you are wrong I thought the grass, was greener and that I wanted something more when all I had to do is look at you look at my wife and see that I already had, had everything."
He leaned in and kissed me before I had a chance to stop him. I didn't kiss him back and I pulled away. "Emmett, please don't do that, please" (I was wrong I wasn't done crying over him) as the tears rolled down my face.
" Bella just feel don't think" he whispered , but it was too late maybe a month ago it wouldn't have maybe if Edward hadn't worked his way into my heart , but now it was too late for what if's.
"Em I can't and I think I need to go to my room now just leave the dishes I'll clean them up later." I said as I got up and walked away from my past and toward my present and my future.
I got to my room and pulled out my overnight bag and pack a few things I would need because I was going to go stay with Jake and Edward till they came home in a few days.
Em knocked on my door" please Bella; please forgive me "he said over and over. The sad thing is I think I already had forgiven him, my heart just didn't feel the same way about him as it did and if he wasn't strong enough to let go then I would be for both of us.
I opened the door and he smiled at me "my Bella, thank you, you'll not regret it." (Then he saw my bag) "Where the hell do you think you're going? You sure as shit aren't leaving this house or me, I need you here to drink and sign this paper saying you don't want my money if we get divorced; it's our pre-nump that you never signed before we got married. "
I could tell that he had hit the liquor cabinet before he came up here, plus he smelled like it also.
"I'm going to go stay with Jake the next few days (I was going to say Edward but the look in Emmett's eyes said that I better not). Give you time to cool off and think about everything Emmett, I was tell you the truth, I love you but we are not good together, we are not good for each other."
"Go then you bitch ,I don't know why I thought I still had feelings for you and that I wanted to have sex with because babe your nothing and I will fight you every step of the way of you think you're going to get one finger on my families money."
"Whatever Em I'm done" I said as I pushed past him and headed for my car. Next stop Edward.
I drove the next two years and it was worth it when Edward opened his hotel room door. The smile he wear was my answer if he was truly ok with me just showing up. I knew that he and Jake share and a-joined room
Edward behind down and wrapped his arms around me and kissed me. "Bella I was so worried and now you're here, I am so happy, Bella I don't care what happened there I just want you to know that I love you." Edward said as he kissed me again.
Thank you for reading , I know it wasn't a lot of Bella and Edward this chapter but it is important to the rest of the story, hope you all didn't hate it too much . I don't own Twilight SM does. I hope to update this week ,so till then happy reading.
