EmPOV:

After we left the cemetery we decided to head out and grab lunch. We were getting ready to leave and I pulled Rosalie into my car. Alice and Jasper picked
her up, she was without a ride. I needed to talk to her. I stepped into the driver's side as she slammed the passenger door shut.

"What gives, Em?" she questioned, crossing her arms across her chest. I laughed, she really was something.

"We need to talk, Rosie," I said sternly, hoping she would get the idea that it was serious talk time.

"About what, Emmett? Is everything okay?" she wondered.

"Everything's fine, Rose, but we really need to talk about…us." I turned to look at her face when I said 'us'. Her smile turned into a frown and she sighed.

"What about us, Emmett? Did I do something wrong?"

Alright here goes nothing. I thought.

"We've been doing this for what, almost five months now? I'll admit, in the beginning it was just a casual thing. We were both looking for something to scratch that itch. It wasn't supposed to be an everyday event and it started off that way. We would meet once and awhile, late at night. I remember lying in bed only find you coming to my door at two in the morning, claiming you couldn't sleep. But I've noticed something, Rosalie. Our casual meetings have been becoming more frequent. First it was once every week, then it turned to twice a week, now I find myself with you three to four times every week and it's not always sex Rose. Now, we go to dinner, watch movies, hang out and cuddle. If you told me five months ago that I would be with the same girl three to four times a week, I would laugh in your face. This, what we're doing is not me, but I like it. You've changed my perspective on life, babe. You're the only woman I've been with for at least two months, if not longer. It scares me when I find myself thinking about you and when we're apart, I miss you, miss being with you…and it scares me sometimes."

I waited for her to say something, but she didn't. She just stared out the window, slowly curling her blonde locks around her fingers. He silence scared me, I shouldn't have said something.

"Rosalie, say something…" I encouraged and placed my hand on her leg, she didn't flinch though. She surprised me when she placed her hand on top of mine.

"Emmett…can I tell you the truth?" she asked.

"That would be ideal..." I said with a smile.

"I'm scared. You know I'm not one for commitment. Just the idea of it scares the living day lights out of me. I've seen so many relationships fail. My parents, all my clients, Edward's…" she panicked

"Rose, let's face it, you know just as well as that Edward's relationship was over the day he said I do."

"Don't you see where I'm going with this? All I know about relationships is that they fail. I'm gonna tell you the absolute truth, Emmett McCarty. When we first started doing…this, it was just supposed to be something to help 'scratch the itch,' like you said. Although when I started coming to you more frequently, it was because in a weird way being with you made me…whole. I refused to let myself fall for you in the beginning, I had to keep reminding myself that it was just a casual thing, nothing serious. When I'm with you, Emmett, I can forget everything that's going on at work. I can be myself. The past few weeks have been amazing; I've found myself yearning for you. I'm yearning for your touch, and your embrace."

Those words made my heart soar, she really wanted this. "What am I going to do with you, Rosalie?" I asked her jokingly, as I shook my head back and forth.

"Honestly, anything you want to do, Emmett. I'm yours for the taking. You have my heart, please don't break it..." Rosalie breathed lowly.

"Are you serious?" I asked her, glancing in her direction.

"Dead serious. There isn't anyone else I would rather be with then with you, Emmett. It makes me happy to hear that I've changed your ways, that it's been just me. I want it to stay that way. We need to take it slow though, you need to cut me some slack. I'm not good at the relationship thing." she confessed.

"Are you forgetting who you're talking to, babe? I don't have the cleanest slate out there," I said making her laugh.

"There's something I want though," Rosalie added.

"What is it? Anything for you..." I replied.

"Can we keep this between us for now? It makes me nervous to know that Alice would know. She would blow the whole thing out of proportion. I don't need that right now."

I would do anything for her, if that's what she wanted, she would get it.

"You need slow, I'll give you slow, Rosie. I don't need anyone but you, no one needs to know." I picked up her hand, and gave it the sweetest kiss.

alright everyone on three..one, two, three..AWE! :D hope you guys liked it.

so i asked you a question last chapter..the one about the cullens & a weekend. it's only fair i answer that question right?

i wouldn't choose edward, yes he's dreamy, but honestly edward wouldn't be edward without bella and i can only bring back ONE cullen, so he's out of the picture. it would definetly be a toss between alice&emmett. alice because she's just so upbeat and enegetic..besides i would give up anything to go on a shopping spree with her. emmett because, honestly there wouldn't be a dull moment the entire weekend.

hope to post soon within the next couple of days..

until next time
