Let Me Love You

Chapter four

We were at the mall as soon as the song ended—thanks to me and Alice's speed-addictiveness.

We—Emmett reluctantly—opened our doors and got out of our cars and half the crowd turned their heads in our direction to gape at us; typical.

Emmett was looking scared, eyes darting in all directions, noticing how many people were there.

"I...uh...don'thaveanycondoms! HA!" he spluttered the excuse.

"Pfft, we can just go to the drugstore and get some. We are at a mall after all" Alice grinned—obviously planning a shopping trip after this was over and done with.

You could tell Bella was trying her best not to laugh at Emmett's 'I wonder if I can kill myself before they get back' look.

His eye was twitching as he racked through his peanut-sized brain for a way out of this. It looked like he was going to have a mental breakdown if he went on like this any longer.

"Whoa, watch it there; you might kill some brain cells...or what's left of them anyway" Bella joked.

"Whoa...you're right, thanks" Emmett replied. Has he even heard of sarcasm?

We all stared at him, shocked.

"...What?" his voice was nervous. We all burst out laughing.

'Stu-PID' everyone thought at once.

Wait.

I didn't here Bella's thoughts.

I stopped laughing immediately after that thought.

Come to think of it, I hadn't been trying to read anyone's mind for a while (thanks to those disturbing scared-for-life ones). That's probably why I haven't noticed this before...

Soon, everyone else noticed my lack of humor, and turned to stare at my confused expression.

"What's up with the confusion, bro?" Jasper asked me.

"I...I can't read your mind, Bella" I stuttered. I bet $100 that I looked very similar to a four year old, trying extremely hard to uncover the Da Vinci code.

Everyone stared at me shocked (again, except for Rose and Emmett), and then to Bella, back to me, her, me, her; you get the pattern.

Then the most unexpected thing happened.

Bella was snorting uncontrollably—very un-lady like, might I add—like she'd just watched Rush Hour 3 [that movie was fucking hilaaaaaaaaaarious xD.

It didn't look like Bella was going to calm down any time soon so Alice ignored her as if she wasn't leaning on her tiny form for support.

"Actually, I haven't had any visions of her...ever. Not even one telling me that she was attending her first day of school..." Alice trailed off, lost in thought as to how that was possible.

"I never noticed this before, but I haven't felt any emotions coming off of her, either. It's like she's not even there" Jasper added.

We all turned to look at Bella strangely, thoroughly puzzled, while Rose was looking at her nails—clearly bored—and Emmett was trying to think of an escape plan while we got distracted.

"PFFT HAHA OK, OK" she took a deep breath "you...can't really use powers against me, sorry" [There you go, for some of you that wondered if Edward could read her mind in this story. Sorry, I totally forgot to add that in earlier heh. You're prob thinking, 'how the hell can you forget about that!?!' right now LOL she smiled. God, I loved that smile...

EMOTIONS! Jasper had a shocked mask, like the rest of us, but was screaming and protesting in his mind.

...My bad...

"How...does that work?" Alice spluttered. Not good; Alice never splutters. Ever.

"Power" Bella waved off, dismissively, like it was no big deal and the most normal thing in the world. PSSH, yea right! "Can we just hurry up and get Emmett to do the bet before he disappears when our backs are turned?" Oh yeah...

"CURSES!" Emmett hissed under his breath.

"C'mon Emmy" Bella grinned, while pulling on Emmett's arm to get him moving.

"Meeeh, I dun wanna Belly" he tried pulling back like a four year old being pulled by their parents. How old is he again?

Everyone thought the same thing, considering they all cracked up in giggles and chuckles.

Alice ventured off to the drugstore for the materials, as soon as all five of us were pulling a whiny Emmett through the mall, to the men's room, where he would change.

Alice quickly came back running, just barely acceptable as human pace, in our direction. Oh yea, I forgot to mention the DOZENS OF BOXES OF CONDOMS SHE WAS HOLDING!

I think she bought just about every bloody kind ever made! It was ranging from Trojan to Lifestyles to female condoms [yea I just had health class like two weeks ago bout sex so don't go this thinking I actually look this stuff up LOL btw, did I mention im scared for life –eye twitches-. But I still don't this its as bad as the animal reproduction video I watched last thurs for science...THAT REALLY damaged me for just about ever. I don't think I can look at all those animals the same way again...-shudders-. Ok, I'll stop talking about my life story and continue typing :). There were even freaking birth control pills! HOLY CRAP THIS WAS GOING TO BE HILARIOUS!

Just then, Emmett came out bare-ass naked with his hands over his...area.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WITH ALL THAT!?!" he pointed at the huge pile in her tiny arms. Bad move.

"WHOA! You're a small one, aren't you?" Bella joked, shooting us all into another round of hysterics, when Emmett accidentally flashed us early.

"GAH! Well...SHUT UP!" Emmett pouted. If it were possible, Emmett would be as red as a fire truck.

There were a few chuckles on our part before Emmett spoke up again.

"Oh...this feels kinda nice" he put his hands on his hips, "I can actually breathe" he took a big gulp of hair and stuck out his chest, looking like superman...naked. Insert 'walk away' here.

"If anyone asks, I don't know you" Rose took a step back to prove that she wasn't joking. Wow. She must be serious, considering the two of them are usually all over each other; if you know what I mean...-shudders-.

"OKAY! People, people! We have a dear brother...friend...or husband, WHATEVER YOU WANT YOU THINK OF HIS AS, here to give these good people a little present!" Alice reminded us. Oh right.

Makeup; check, hair; check, Jasper holding my hand; check, outfit; check, condoms; check, and last—but not least, video camera; DOUBLE CHECK!, I heard Alice's thoughts. Video camera? HA! Emmett was never going to live this down; I quietly chuckled in my mind. We were finally going to get him back for all the monkeyshines [LMFAO sry, I was looking through synonyms and I saw that word and I just couldn't stop laughing! So I HAD to put that in there xD. For those who don't know what that means, its like another saying for pranks. I was going to put shenanigans or something that sounded old-ish but damn...MONKEYSHINES HAHA he's pulled on all of us...FINALLY! Maybe I should put this on Youtube...just to add to the payback. The past pranks he's played on us were not, and I repeat; NOT, happy moments. Definitely not...

-Flashback 1-

"Yo, Ed!" Emmett hollered, from my doorway. I was currently lying on my coach, relaxing from a stressful, annoying day at school, my listening to some music. Half the girls at school kept going up to me and asking to see if I wanted to go to the dance with them. One of them, I'm not going to mention names here –cough JESSICA STANLEY cough-, even got on her hands and knees and begged me until a teacher gave her detention. Another –cough LAUREN MALLORY cough- was even offering to be a one-night stand if I went with her—not to mention her past rated R film, to the point where there should be a rated Z, in her thoughts. Two words shot through my mind at that invitation; HELL. NO!

"What!?" I groaned. I was trying to un-scar myself from today's nightmare from hell.

"What's wrong with you?" he patted my shoulder, as if he really cared. He was thinking about yesterday's football game and how the quarter-back should be kicked off the team because he was 'too slow'.

I gave him a weird look but shook it off.

"Nothing" I sighed. I didn't want to tell HIM about it; he'd just tease me and make jokes.

"Okay, bye!" and he shot out of the room. Okay...

I got off the coach and walked passed my siblings in the living room, to my piano.

There were snickers behind me, I whipped around and raised an eyebrow at my siblings. They all had their minds blocked.

I resumed to walking to my piano. Everyone burst into laughter to the point where their minds slipped and I saw what was so funny; there was a sign called 'I think I have nice butt cheeks'.

And from then on, Emmett's arm was dislocated for the next two days.

-Flashback 2-

Emmett was blocking his thoughts from me, for some reason; probably with Rose, I thought.

"Hey Edward, my man!" Emmett clapped me on the shoulder.

"Hey, what's up?" I replied, looking over where he touched me to make sure there isn't going to be a repeat of last month.

"Nothing much, you going somewhere?" he casually asked. I looked at him suspiciously. Why was he blocking my mind, if he wasn't 'with' Rosalie?

"Yeah, I'm going to HMV to pick up the new Faber Drive CD" I answered. [Sorry, just hadda put that in there. I freaking L.O.V.E Faber Drive. It's becoming an obsession LOL. Eh well, THEY ROCK:D I'll prob even add some songs from them in this story ;) They were a surprisingly good band. I've heard quite a lot about them. I might even pick up the new Hedley CD while I'm there[Love em too—I picked up both CDs the other day hehe —but they come in second LOL

"Oh, cool. Well, I'll see you 'round" he waved.

"Bye"

I went to the garage to get to my car. I looked around the garage but there didn't seem to be anything out of place. I shrugged and hopped into my car before I pulled out of the driveway.

I was driving down the streets of Port Angeles when people started giving me weird/incredulous looks. Some were even shaking their heads as if in shame.

Fed up, I peeped into their minds. I slammed on the breaks.

Holy. Damn.

I AM GOING TO FUCKING MURDER EMMETT!!! AGAIN!!

On the other side of my car, the passengers side, was painted a hot PINK—so you couldn't see from my point of view while I was in the garage earlier—with even pink WHEELRIMS! But that wasn't the worst part. No, no, no. To top the cherry on top, there words 'I –heart- MONKEY TITS' was spray-painted in huge letters, along the whole of the side of my car. My poor, poor, baby car. I even dry sobbed for a few seconds before I remembered Emmett did this, and pure, un-conditioned, anger boiled throughout my dead veins.

Emmett ended up bald for the next week or so. As soon as the bell signaling the end of school rang, he'd zip right home, running the fastest I've ever seen him; even faster than me.

-End Flashbacks-

"You; take this" she handed the basket full of condoms and other kinds of protection I've never even seen before "now GO!" her little form was pushing the enormous bolder that was Emmett.

"Fine! Fine! I'm going already!" he grumbled, before skipping through the mall.

Alice quickly took out the camera and started recording everything, while we were all laughing uncontrollably as Emmett would say things such as, "Free condoms! Get your free condoms!" or "Protect yourselves! Condom style!" and even "Look at all the kinds! There's the pill, female condom, cream...WHAT THE FUCKING HELL IS THIS?!?!" and he'd whip the things out of his hand, almost too fast for a normal human. It was utterly hilarious.

There were women covering their children's eyes, people shaking their heads at him, in shame, an old lady even fainted. What disturbed me, as well as the rest of us, especially Emmett, was that at least of a third of the female population were whistling, howling, cheering—bloody hell! Some were even throwing money at him! That really ticked Rosalie off. Who knew the small town of Forks could be such perverts?

He only had few more stores to pass before we heard some yelling.

"HEY! YOU THERE! STOP! THIS IS SECURITY!" Son of a biscuithead...

OMG! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW SORRY I AM FOR NOT UPDATING IN LIKE...LITERALLY A MONTH[oh, and sry for any errors I was going to update waaaaaay sooner but I've had a load of homework this past month -.-" OR I had tests to study for and I just finished one yest and I'm so nervous cuz it was a science unit test and I suck at science [REALLY SUCK! Like almost FAILING suck! and I need to get at least a 60 [told u I really sucked otherwise I might need to take applied and it's not going to make me look good, which sucks ass, considering it's the ONLY thing I'm doing horrible on [damn science! No offence to anyone that actually enjoys the subject. And if I'm not busy with school, there's my social life, helping my mom at work [I spent over $1100 in October...and that was only for the visa card...yea I know, you're probably like 'how the hell does your mom let you spend that much? Wel...you see...I have this shopping problem hehe. But I've stopped spending so much of her money this month and I'm actually using my own money LOL. And hey, at least I'm helping her at work, my sis just 'forgets' her wallet at home and my mom pays for her stuff and she asks my mom to take her to the mall but she wont come down to work with her, when it's just easier for her to just take my sis to the mall right after she leaves. Yep, she's a real bitch :), and then there's me sleeping in and being lazy when I actually have free time...Okay, sorry for talking to you guys about my whole life story and all. Anyway, I tried making this long but its only...2100 words? Or sumthing like that. But don't worry, I'm working on the next chapter right now and it should be up [if I don't get bombarded with a ton of more homework sometime this week. :D

Oh, yeah, did any of you hear that Kristen Steward is gonna be the new Bella? Yea, I just realized it was posted a couple days ago but I don't visit the site often hehe. Well anyway, I'm kinda surprised but disappointed [no offence to people that think she's the perfect Bella, this is just my opinion because I was really hoping Alexis Bledel or Rachel Hurd-Wood would be Bella :(. But they BETTER choose AT LEAST an OKAY looking Edward or I'm going to be SOOOOOOOOO pissed off, there's going to be bloody hell to pay!...And I might even cry a little...[my friend said if I did, she'd just walk away like she doesn't even know me LOL, but she has problems too –coff boy crazy coff- LOL—if you're reading this, sorry! But even you admitted it was true HAHA—

Okily Dokily, Imma go now

Buh-bye ;)

PS: FABER DRIVE IS THE BEST s2
