Music played softly from Kambri's room as I approached it. I stood for a moment going oer what I would say to her. How could I possible explain forgetting about her? Well technically I hadn't forgotten, only sidetracked. Maybe if thoughts of Rosaie would disappear maybe I could actually have a life. Esme passed me in the hallway. She gave a disappointed look as she continued on her way. I turned my attention back to Kambri and knocked on the door.
"Um...yeah?" She said, almost confused.
"Hey, uh, it's Emmett...can I come in?" I asked.
I heard her small converse it the ground and move towards the door. It opened and there she was. Her eyes were red. She'd been crying because of me. She crossed her arms and looked up.
"What do you want Emmett?" Her soft voice cracked.
"Did I make you cry?" I asked.
"Well, what better way to tell someone you don't want them in your family than to abandon them?" She said, visibly upset.
"Kam...No! That's not it at all! I never meant to abandon you! I got sidetracked with something else and..."
This wasn't helping. She reached up with the sleeve of her black shirt and wiped a tear from her eyes.
"I'm really sorry Kambri. Please don't think that I don't want you here! We all want you here!"
She sighed, looking back at her room, "You can come in...if you want."
I smirked and entered her room. She sat down on her computer chair and I sat across from her on her bed. I noticed she was smiling now. Why was she smiling? What had I don't to make her smile?
"I like your smile." I admitted.
"Oh...um..thanks." She shyly covered the lower half of her face.
The song that was playing changed to something from the 80's. Kambri quickly turned in horror and turned off her sound system. I laughed and leaned back on her bed. She turned around, her face red with embarrassment.
"Were you even born when that song came out?" I smirked.
"I don't know, probably." She shrugged.
"Wait...you don't know when you were born?" I sat up, raising an eyebrow.
"Um...no, not exactly. I know was born on New Year's Day though." She shrugged. "When were you born?"
"Um...1915...I'm old." I said.
She laughed, "Yeah a little bit."
Her hazel eyes were no longer bloodshot and red. She ran her hand through her dark brown, almost black, hair.
"What about the others...how old are they?"
"Older than you." I smirked again.
She smiled, "Come on Emmett!"
"Um...Carlisle is much older than the rest of us. He was born in the 1640's. Esme was born in the late 1800's technically she's younger than Jasper, he was born in 1843. She just got turned at a later age than he did. Edward and Alice were born in 1901 and Me and Rosal....Um...I was born in 1915. So that makes you...Baby Sister."
Kambri laughed and shook her head.
"What?" I asked.
"Sister...that's something I've never been before...or a daughter...or an aunt...I got it all at once."
"Oh, well I'm sure you'll be great at all those things." I reassured her.
There was a knock at the door. We both looked as Esme stuck her head in.
"Hi!" Kambri smiled.
"Hey, nice to see you two are bonding."
"Um, yeah, kinda." I nodded.
"So, are you hungry? I know Emmett has already eaten...but did you want anything...?"
"Um, I don't really drink..." She almost struggled with the word. "blood..."
"We can go get you some food if you'd like, or I can make you something. We're stocked with food now that we have you and Renesmee." Esme said. "I can make you something big if you'd like, Renesmee's having mac and cheese."
"I'll have some too." Kambri smiled again.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, that sounds great right now." She nodded.
"Alright, well I'll bring it up to you." Esme beamed.
She really loved having Kam here. It had been awhile since anyone would let her baby them. I could see how Kambri would enjoy it. She had never had a mother, but Esme was definitly the best.
"You're lucky." I said, laying back on one of Kambri's pillows.
"Why is that?" Kambri raised an eyebrow.
"You're one of us, and with that comes Esme. She the best mother any of us could have asked for. Of course we all remember our biological parents, but for the last 80 years, Esme's done a great job. And from the look on her face, she's really happy to have you as a daugher."
"What about you? Are you a good brother to the rest of them?"
"Of course! I'm pretty sure that if I hadn't been there a few times, some of them would have been ripped apart." I laughed, thinking about the ordeal with James and Victoria. "I ripped this guy to shreds once because he wanted to kill Bella. Then his crazy girlfriend came back to get revenge...that was a nice battle. Oh and after Nessie was born...the Volturi came because they thought she was an imortal child...I would have gone to war for her. Any of them actually, and now you...."
I looked up, hearing the door opened. Esme had returned with a bowl of mac and cheese and glass of milk.
"It's a little hot, so be careful not to burn yourself." Esme smiled.
Kambri tucked her dark hair behind her ears and smiled, "Thanks, it look amazing."
Esme smiled, touching Kambri's face, "I'm so glad you're here. This is your home now so feel free to come and go whenever you want. Help yourself to anyting in the kitchen. And feel free to pick on your big brothers, they need it every now and then."
I laughed, "Yeah, because Jasper and I will pick on you for sure!"
"Well I'll leave you two, but Alice would really like to spend some time with you! Maybe you two can go shopping this weekend. And I think it would be nice for you to talk to Jasper also, seeing as you two have something in common."
"Yeah, I'd love to spend time with both of them." Kambri nodded,
"Good! Now I'll leave you two to continue." Esme beamed.
She leaned down and kissed Kambri's forehead before leaving. Kambri turned her attention to the bowl of yellow mush. Of course it didn't appeal to me...definilty not made of Grizzly. She picked up the spoon and scooped a large amount into her mouth.
"Slow down, we can't have you choking to death!" I joked.
She swallowed, "When is the last time you had Mac and Cheese? It's delicious!"
"Um...never."
"You missed out!" She laughed.
"I highly doubt it."
I turned to look out her window as Edward's Volvo pulled up. I jumped up and grabbed her arm.
"Come on!"
She raised an eyebrow, "What?"
"Edward's here! You have to meet Nessie!"
"Um...okay." She stood and began to walk towards the door.
I grabbed her, picked her up over my shoulder and ran down the stairs. Just in time, the door opened and they entered. Jasper and Alice were on the couch looking at me funny, as were Carlisle and Esme. Edward entered carrying Nesse and Bella followed.
"I think to blood is going to my head...." Kambri said, punching my ass.
"Hey!" I said, looking back at her as she hung upside down over my shoulder.
"Um, isn't it a little to soon to be abusing her?" Bella raised an eyebrow.
"Well, how long did I wait before abusing you" I smirked.
"At least a week." Bella responded.
I shrugged and set Kambri on her feet. She wobbled a little, feeling dizzy.
"Kambri, this is your brother Edward." Carlisle gestured.
"Hi..." Kambri said shyly.
"Hello, it's nice to meet you. Welcome to our family. This is my wife, Bella."
Bella stepped forward to hug Kambri, "We're glad to have you."
Bella stepped back and Edward stepped forward with Nesse, "And this is our daughter, Renesmee. She's half vampire, half human, like you."
"Hi Renesmee." Kam smiled, waving.
Renesmee looked at Bella for reasurrance. Bella nodded. Renesmee turned her attention back to Kambri.
"My name is Renesmee Carlie Cullen. Who are you?"
"I'm Kambri."
"This is your aunt Nessie. She's like you." Edward smiled.
"Like Aunt Alice?"
"Yes, like Aunt Alice."
"Oh, she's pretty."
Kambri blushed, trying to hide behind her hair. Everyone laughed softly.
"How about some dinner Nessie?" Esme asked.
"Mac and Cheesee!!!" Nessie squealed.
Edward put her down and she ran into the kitchen. Esme and Bella followed.
