Disclaimer: All belongs to the amazing Stephenie Meyer! Emmett belongs to her, if he belonged to me, I wouldn't be here. *sighs*
Chapter 1: Boredom Rosalie's P.O.V.
"I'm booooored," Emmett whined for the 697th time in the past four hours. It was the week before winter break and I was sitting on the big, white sofa in the living room, watching a new episode of the Secret Life of the American Teenager. I don't like Amy…. Evil little human girl. I was only watching it because there was nothing better on- The Hills wasn't on at this time.
"Emmett, shut up and go play WII," I yelled becoming even more aggravated. I'd made so many suggestions by this time that I was running out of plausible options. Each activity had lasted him a maximum of 15 minutes.
"I most certainly can not play WII anymore- I broke it again," he said looking down at his feet and then giving me his puppy dog eyes.
"No, I'm not falling for that again Emmett, honey. You know that that doesn't work on me anymore." Be strong, Rose, be strong. "Go buy another new one, you have money." my husband is so immature sometimes. Actually, all the time, well, except at night anyway.
"Well then go see if Nessie will play with you." I said as a last resort to get him to leave. Eddie and Bells are going to love me now. Oh well.
"Ooooohh, great idea. I'll go see if she wants to go to Disneyland." He said in his 'I've-got-a-new-scheme-that-I-need-to-carry-out-before-I-get-caught-voice'.
"Emmett, you know that Eddie, Bella, and Alice won't let you do that." I said, sorry that I had even mentioned it.
"Why not, they have to let her grow up sometime!" He said frustrated. "Wait, Alice? Why would she care?," he asked totally clueless.
"Uh Emmett, have you met Alice? If you take Ness to Disneyland, Alice won't be able to dress her in new outfits every hour." Seriously how does he not know that. He's lived with Alice for how long? Maybe I should see if he wants to go upstairs with me… the furniture isn't in enough pieces yet. Nah, maybe later. "Emmett, how 'bout we go someplace next week, just the two of us! It's Christmas break!" If that doesn't distract him nothing will.
"Oooooh, Can we go someplace sunny and tropical?" he asked excitedly.
"You know, we could go on a road trip! You could drive a big, huge R.V. twice the speed limit!" That ought to make him happy.
"Awesome idea Rosie, let's go buy an R.V. now!" He shrieked while bouncing. Yes, bouncing.
"What are you buying? I heard the word buying!" Alice yelled while skidding to a stop about one foot from me. Jeez, obsessive little pixie.
"Alice, I am going to have to sign you up for Shopaholics Anonymous and take away your credit cards if-"
"We're buying an R.V. so we can go on a road trip!" Emmett said, cutting me off.
"Great idea," Alice said, "We should all go. I'll call a family meeting and we can decide where to go! I can't believe that I didn't think of this before. Ooooooooohhhhh, this will be so much fun!" Oh no, that's Alice's 'I-have-so-much-shopping-to-do' tone of voice. This cannot be good for poor Bella.
[Five minutes later] Alice's P.O.V.
"Okay guys, we're planning a road trip for over Christmas break and I need you to tell me where you would like to go" I said excitedly, bouncing in my seat. Oh , duh, I know where we're going, of course, I saw it about a week ago I just didn't know what it was we were doing there. Oh the shopping possibilities. Oh no, I don't think that I will have enough time to finish all my shopping!
"Under one condition," Edward said quickly, "You cannot force Bella into any mall with you." FUN SPOILER!!! I thought unhappily to him.
"I know," he replied smugly
"Fine," I said glumly, "So where would you guys like to go?"
"Geez, Alice," said Jacob from beside Bella, "You're up, you're down, you're here, you're there, you're like a frickin' one woman circus." (1)
"I know, I have the best idea ever!" Emmett yelled excitedly form the other end of the table, "let's go on a road trip to Hawaii!" For this he was smacked across the back of his head by both Rose and Edward. "What was that for?" he asked rubbing the back of his head.
" Two problems, idiot," Rose said trying to figure out how he could be so stupid, "First, you can't go on a road trip to Hawaii- it's an island, and second, we are vampires, how would we hide our sparkling skin from all of the stupid humans?"
"Ummm, actually, Carlisle and I have found a solution to that," spoke up my beautiful husband, Jazz, "I've created a specially modified sunscreen designed to conceal the sparkle of our skin." I knew that he could do it! He'd been trying for weeks to accomplish this, ever since I told him about my vision of us in Hawaii.
"You guys, we are going to Hawaii, we leave in a week!" I said becoming more excited. Just then Nessie placed her tiny hand against Bella's cheek. "Oooohh, what does she want to know?" I asked, hoping that she wanted to go shopping with me.
"She wants to know if Jake can come too," Bella said calmly, "She also would like to know how you will manage to pull this together in a week."
"Oh, I booked them weeks ago, I had a vision of us there," Honestly, did they think that I didn't see this? "Oh and none of you have suitable wardrobes so I have taken the time to order you new clothes online, so I will pack for all you. Oh and of course Jake can come."
"Alice, just one request," Carlisle said, speaking for the first time since this family meeting was called, "Can you please keep your wardrobe purchases to under one million? Please?"
"Fine," I replied reluctantly. He always ruins my fun. "Oh and before you all leave, I decided that we will draw names and you will buy a Christmas gift, when we get there, but only for that one person. You can exchange gifts with your spouse, partner or in one case child or parents when we get back. The budget for Christmas shopping is 2,000 dollars per person, and yes Jake, we got you a credit card. Okay you can go now." I'm so excited. I have so much to do and not enough time, I better go get started now!!!
"This will be so much fuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnn," sang Emmett, he may look all tough and masculine, but he's not, he's like a little girl. He puts little girls to shame. "Well, you know what they say, you can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, but you cannot pick your friend's nose." (2) Everyone just turned and stared at him.
"Emmett, what?! That was extremely random, what does that have to do with this conversation?" Bella asked, trying to understand what Emmett was thinking. She really shouldn't do that. The rest of us gave up about a week after we met him.
"Actually, Alice, I gave up about three minutes after," this came from Edward, who had gone back to his piano as soon as Emmett had said this.
