Hey Yall! Everyone is super sweet and I really appreciate it, I hope you like this next chapter.

Emmett POV:

'This is not fair, Emmett! You're mine! You've always been mine!' Daphne sobbed, looking at me like I was an alien she wanted to probe her. I hated the blatant betrayal she was looking at me with. I didn't want things to be weird with us, but I couldn't give up Bay for Daphne anymore than I could give up Daphne for Bay. One was the best friend I'd loved for half my life, the other was the girl that I loved now. I wasn't hung up on my best friend anymore and that killed her. I however felt…free.

'Wrong. I was yours Daphne. I'm Bay's now.' I didn't really like referring to myself as someone's property, but she'd started it.

'So what? You're going to just choose her over me, and that's it?' I closed my eyes and pressed my thumbs to my temple. All this drama was giving me a migraine.

'It's not like that. You'll always be my best friend. But Bay is my girlfriend.'

'She will never know you like I do Emmett. I mean, my God! Do you really think it will ever be anything serious?' she took a step closer to me and I fought the urge to move away from her.

'Daphne,' I signed, making a point to look her in the eyes. 'It is serious.' She rolled her eyes, clearly disbelieving.

'Sex doesn't make it serious. It makes her a whore!' Daphne snapped, eyes blazing. That triggered something in me, made me break a little.

'Daphne I love her. I'm with her. Deal with it.' On the word 'love' Daphne gasped and covered her hand with her mouth. Her eyes began to fill and then tears spilled down her face. Shit.

'Daph…don't.' I took two long strides, closing the space between us, and pulled her into a hug. I could feel the tears shaking her body as I held her and a wave of guilt washed over me. I shouldn't have told her I love Bay. It was true but she didn't need to hear it. I felt cruel and wrong and evil and…

A streak of movement near the door caught my eye. Bay was standing in the doorway, drinking in the scene with wide eyes. I thought about what she must be seeing, Daphne wrapped around me with tears in her eyes. Shit.

Bay POV:

Once Emmett saw me he released Daphne and both of them turned to stare. My cheeks were flaming hot and I was trying to stop myself from firing off all the questions currently running through my brain. Please I thought desperately; don't let her take him from me. My stomach hurt, but that was probably just because my heart just fell into it.

"Mom's cutting the…um cake. She sent me to get you." I said mechanically, lifting a hand to point outside. Emmett nodded and looked at Daphne.

'You ready?' he asked her. She glared back at him with such fiery hatred I went over to position myself in between the two. This seemed to be the exactly wrong thing to do though because the seething detest in her face doubled. Daphne scoffed loudly at the pair of us and then stormed back out of the room.

"What the hell was that?" I asked him, trying to hide the relief that I knew was flooding my face. She was mad at him. He hadn't given into her.

'Nothing.' Emmett shrugged. I wanted to push him, but we really couldn't stay away much longer without raising suspicion.

'Promise?' I asked. Emmett sighed and leaned down to kiss my forehead.

'No.'
