A/N Thank you sooooo much for all the awesome reviews!
I walked back in school the next day with Emmett protectively holding my hand. I heard Emmett growl and I looked over to see Royce at his locker, but looking over at me. I buried my face in Emmett's arm.
"It's okay Rose. He's not gonna get within 8000 feet of you." Emmett said.
We walked into the office. "Can I please change my schedule?" Emmett asked the ancient receptionist.
She took his old one and looked it over twice. "Is there anything in particular you would like to change about it?"
Emmett took my schedule from me and gave it to her. "To this."
"I don't see why it would be a problem." She reached into a file cabinet and pulled out a file.
While they took care of that, I walked over to the office window. People were all staring in the direction of Royce's locker. I walked out of the office and looked up the hall.
"You have the right to remain silent." Chief Swan had Royce up against his now closed locker.
Royce locked eyes with me and mouthed the words, "I'm gonna kill you, Hale." As chief Swan led him down the hall to the parking lot.
I could NOT handle this. I ran to Emmett.
"Where did you go?" he asked.
"They just took Royce." I said.
Emmett looked relieved.
"But he told me he was going to kill me."
"Don't believe that. Like I said, NO ONE is gonna hurt you." Emmett said.
"But-"
"But nothing. If you don't feel safe we'll leave," Emmett turned around so his chest was pressed to mine, looking down at me, staring deep into my eyes. "Just you and me."
I felt tears in my eyes. "You would do that for me?"
"Of course."
I smiled. "Thank you."
He grabbed his schedule and we walked to class.
Lunch period.
"Quite!" Principle Cullen yelled, standing on a table in the middle of the cafeteria. "Do NOT panic. I need everyone to remain calm."
Everyone looked at him confused.
"We are going on lock down. Royce King was arrested this morning and escaped not long after. For everyone's safety, do NOT go out of this building."
Emmett grabbed my hand. "Come on." He whispered.
I looked over at Jasper.
"Go! I'll take care of mom and dad."
I got up, ran out of the side door of the cafeteria with Emmett, and got into his wrangler faster then I thought I could. I picked a good day to wear converse.
Emmett jumped in, locked the doors, and drove off. "We're gonna run to your house. I need you to get some clothes." He said as we sped down the street.
"Come in with me." I said as we pulled up to my house.
We ran in and up to my room. I ran into my walk-in closet and threw as many clothes I could and ran back out.
"Ready?" Emmett asked.
I nodded and we ran back to the wrangler.
I reached over and grabbed his hand.
"I love you." He said.
"I know." I smiled. I never felt safe unless I'm with Emmett. "I love you."
"I know." He smiled.
Another short chapter, I know. I'm sorry. I love you people! Please R$R! I promise a longer chapter in chapter seven!
