Chapter 3
Emmett POV
That little girl was so cute and so much fun to be around! I just couldn't stay away from her! She had a lot of energy and that was good for someone like me who needed to be active all the time or I would get very bored. For the past two weeks we had played so many games that I couldn't even keep track! Barbie's, house, animal doctor, and the list goes on and on forever and ever, kinda like me! We also adopted the traditions of watching at least one movie a day and someone had to read her a story before she went to bed.
To be honest at first when she hide from me I was really nervous about her not liking me because well I must have looked like a giant monster to her, but now we were really close and great playmates. Everyone was always joking that Alice and I had finally found someone at our level to play with and to be honest I think they are right! These games no matter how girly and childish I absolutely loved every minute we spent playing them! I used to always play with my nieces as a human, but not even that could come close to matching the fun I had with this little girl!
It had been two weeks since she came to live with us and well must of us were so upset when we had to leave her to hunt, but it was for her benefit. We didn't go far it only took and hour or so and someone was always with her as we went in shifts giving her excuses to explain our absence. It was hard to lie to her, but we couldn't tell her not now not ever she would probably run and scream and well it wouldn't be good!
The constant routine of little "girl" games got annoying after a while though so I decided to teach her what it was like to be one of the boys! I decided to play the game that was called America's pastime.
"Casey, how'd ya like to go outside and play a little baseball?" I asked praying she would agree with me.
"Sure! Emm that sounds like fun!" she replied using her nickname for me. This was going to be so much fun and maybe even better than dress up!
I then began to teach her how to play baseball. It was funny watching her hold the big fat plastic bat in correctly and seeing her keep missing every time I gently tossed the waffle ball to her. I could see she was getting annoyed and discouraged, when Jasper came over with a tee, something I should have thought of using, and joined in our little game. I knew Jazz would eventually be won over by her and I know Edward will eventually! She is just toooooo CUTE!!!
It was funny playing baseball this way. We were used to well how do I put it? A more intense game then tee ball! She eventually got the hang of the hitting and base running after running in the wrong direction a couple of times. It was funny when Casey and I ganged up on Jazz. He would always let her get him out though that cheating brother of mine!
Along with teaching her baseball Jasper and I also devoted ourselves to teaching her the great game of football. At first Jazz was reluctant to physically touch her fearing the worse, but in the end he was swinging her around in his arms without any problems with her blood at all, actually he was smiling wider than I ever seen and his laughing well it was almost as loud as mine! The entire family even Edward watched as we played and I could tell that they were all pleased with Jasper and I, especially Jasper for being able to control his thirst why we played with our new little sister.
At the end of the day not only Casey, but both Jasper and I were completely drained and out of energy! Esme was very please that we took Casey outside and let her run around in the warm summer air. I plan on doing this again it was so much fun! Casey slept good that night too!
