AUTHOR'S NOTE: The Cullens attend a Frat Party.

Frat Party 2

We looked up to see the humans spilling out of the house and filling up the backyard. Two guys brought out what looked to be a karaoke machine and put it on top of a picnic table near the pool.

I turned my head and looked up at Edward. "What are they doing?"

"I don't know," he replied. "They're too drunk to form coherent thoughts."

I turned back toward the humans and watched another guy get up on top of the table and grab the microphone from the machine. He stood up and raised his arms high in the air, getting the crowd to yell for him. He lowered his arms, and then looked like he was flapping them while he waited for the crowd to settle down.

"I am Big Brother Dave and I welcome you all to our luau. It's been one hell of a semester. I have personally enjoyed getting to know many of our fine young co-eds." The guy smirked and I was glad I couldn't hear his thoughts; I was sure they would be exceedingly disgusting. I wondered if I should offer to block Edward.

"Are you having a good time?" Dave yelled into the microphone, hurting my ears.

Edward, being the wonderfully sweet husband that he was, covered my ears with his hands just as the crowd started to scream, whistle, and cheer.

Dave chuckled into the microphone and then took a sip of whatever drink he was holding before burping into the microphone.

"Disgusting!" Rose, Alice, and I said.

"I am so doing that!" Emmett chuckled.

Dave smirked as he surveyed the crowd. "Alright, party people. We have a guy wanting to put on a show for you all, but I'm too drunk to remember his name. So big guy in the grass skirt, come over here and get your flowery necklace thing so I can say 'aloha' to you," Dave said.

Emmett stood up, smiling happily, and proudly walked over to the guy. A couple of girls put purple and blue leis around his neck, as Rosalie whistled at her husband.

"So, big guy," Dave started, leaning over and slapping Emmett's arm. "Damn, you're solid."

Emmett grinned cheekily.

"Alright, so are you ready?" Dave asked.

Emmett nodded his head vigorously.

"Well, alright, then," Dave chuckled. "Our big friend here offered to entertain us tonight and we said 'we're drunk, why not', so here you go folks."

Music started up from the little machine and Emmett started moving around in his grass skirt and singing:

The way she moves her hips to her fingertips

I feel I'm heaven bound

And when she starts to sway, I've gotta say

She really move the grass around

Rock-a-hula baby

Rock-a-hula baby

Got a hula lulu from Honolulu

That rock-a-hula baby of mine

Although I love to kiss my little hula miss

I never get the chance

I wanna hold her tight all through the night

But all she wants to do is dance

I bet that she could teach the palms along the beach

To sway when breezes blow

And birds up in the sky could learn to fly

By watchin' how my baby can go ("Rock-a-hula" – Elvis Presley)

Emmett stopped moving around and stared right at Rosalie. "Rock-a-hula baby. Rock-a-hula baby. And ain't nobody can rock-a-hula like my Rosie."

Rose wolf-whistled at him.

Emmett curled his upper lip. "Thank you. Thank you, very much."

"No matter how many times he does that Elvis impersonation, he never gets any better," Alice said, shaking her head.

"But he puts so much effort into it," Rose replied. "How can you not just congratulate the poor boy?"

We all watched as Emmett tried to teach some of the humans to hula. They were much too drunk and kept falling over each other and themselves, while laughing.

"So this is what being drunk looks like?" I inquired. "Because if so, I'm even happier that I never bothered with that human experience."

"Wait until they start passing out!" Rose said, smiling wickedly. "I have pink, purple, and lime green permanent markers."

"For what?" I asked.

Alice giggled as she rocked back and forth in Jasper's lap, clapping her hands together. "For art projects!"

"Bella, our sisters are going to draw on the humans that pass out and then encourage their friends to take pictures," Edward explained.

Emmett came bounding over to us, smiling even more than when he had left. "Hey, baby!" he crooned, sweeping Rose up into his arms and kissing her deeply.

"Hello!" Jasper fussed. "It's enough with the human lust. I don't need more of it from you guys."

Jasper's lecture was interrupted by a girl yelling. "For those of you who aren't too drunk to see, they're going to be showing Animal House inside on the big screen in about five minutes."

"I love that movie," Emmett said, rubbing his hands together.

"I'm going to pass," Alice chuckled. "You can't watch that movie without singing along to every single song."

"Plus, you run around the house for days yelling 'Neidermeyer' for no reason," Jasper added.

"Yeah, and you're already on double secret probation," Rose laughed. "So you better stay out here with us and keep out of trouble."

We heard yelling and looked up in time to see a group of about fifteen guys, all running outside, heading straight for the pool. They were so drunk that they fell on top of each other as they landed in the water. A couple of the guys moved over to the side of the pool and noticed us sitting nearby.

A black haired boy yelled out to me. "Hey! Sexy brunette! Why don't you come swimming with us?"

"Sorry! Don't have a suit," I told him.

"That's alright, hot little momma! Naked works for me," the guy shouted.

Edward tensed up and I knew this idiot pervert in the pool was thinking bad thoughts about me.

"I don't think going nude in a pool full of guys would work for my husband," I replied, moving to the side so that the drunk human could get a good look at Edward's extremely angry face.

"Edward," Alice warned. "Don't. He's just drunk."

"How about you blondie? And the short one's invited, too!" another guy yelled.

"Maybe we should go inside and dance for awhile," Rose offered, after flipping off the guys in the pool.

We all got up and headed toward the house amidst yells from the humans in the pool for all three of us girls to stay and keep them company.

"Disgusting," Edward muttered.

I tried to sooth my aggravated husband by stroking his arm lightly. "Honey, we're at a frat party. What else would they be?"

Once we were inside of the house, we all moved to a corner of the living room where the humans were dancing; they instinctively made room for the six of us. The music playing was very much like the club music we had danced to a few times, but unlike a club, all of the lights were on in here, calling even more attention to our unnatural beauty.

Edward held me close, resting his face against my neck. I knew he was attempting to calm down and I hated to bother him, but his nose and breaths were tickling my skin.

"Edward?" I whispered.

"Yes, my love?"

"That tickles, you know."

"What does?" he teased, nuzzling my neck once again.

"That," I laughed, pushing him away slightly.

Edward stood up straight and placed a kiss on my forehead as he pulled me back into the safety of his arms. I rested my head on his chest and looked over toward Rose and Emmett.

A guy walked up and tapped on Emmett's shoulder, getting him to turn around. "Dude, can I dance with your girl?" the guy asked.

"No," Emmett replied, turning his back to the human.

"Well, how do you know she doesn't want to dance with me?" the guy fussed.

Emmett chuckled and turned so that Rose and he were looking at the human. "Rose, darling, do you want to dance with this guy?" Emmett asked.

"No thanks, honey," Rose replied sweetly, as she caressed Emmett's cheek with her hand. "You're the only one here who's man enough to dance with me."

"Bitch," the guy muttered.

Rose's hand flew out instantly and her fist connected with the guy's nose. It was hard enough to hurt him, but not to cause him to bleed or to break any bones.

"Oh, no! Not again," Alice sighed, putting a hand to her forehead.

"Parties always end with either Emmett or Rosalie punching someone," Jasper chuckled.

"Or some poor, unsuspecting soul walks in on them during a private moment," Edward added.

The guy screamed and two of his buddies came running over, pulling him away from us.

"We told you to leave those girls alone," the blonde boy told the screaming guy, as they led him down a hallway.

"Nice punch, Rose!" I said.

"Thanks, Bella," Rose replied, smiling.

A loud noise started up from the backyard and we looked toward the sliding glass door. The humans that had been in the pool were running toward the house, completely naked. I turned my face into Edward's shoulder, not wanting to see any of those silly human boys. I could hear them barreling through the house and out of the front door, while screaming about streaking across the college campus.

"Well, now that the backyard is clear," Rose laughed, "why don't we go sit back down again?"

I chuckled as I pulled away from Edward just enough to see where I was going. His arm was wound protectively around my waist, right where I wanted it to be.

Alice suddenly stopped walking and turned toward Emmett. "That won't end well. Carlisle will not be happy with having to drive down to bail you out of jail," she scolded.

"How could I end up in jail for just following the humans?" Emmett asked, glaring at Alice.

"Because you're going to challenge them to do things. A classroom window will get broken, and you'll get busted for it," Alice informed him.

"Joy-kill, Alice. That's your new nickname," Emmett fussed.

We all went outside, leaving Emmett to sulk. We had just sat down at the table when Alice had another vision. At first, she gasped loudly, but then she started to giggle, shaking her head. When she opened her eyes, she could see that she had our full attention.

Her lips twitched as she tried to keep a straight face. "We have a choice to make, dear family. Do we save Emmett from himself once again? Or do we let this play out and enjoy the sweet reward of torturing him later?"

"Does he end up in jail?" Rose asked.

"Nope! But he does end up in a sticky situation," Alice giggled.

"Let him go ahead," Rose said, sitting back and crossing her arms while smiling.

"Alright, then!" Alice chirped. "Let's sneak over to the doors and watch it unfold."

We got up and moved toward the house, being careful not to alert Emmett to our approach. We peered through the sliding glass doors and saw him standing next to a girl.

"Hey," Emmett said to the girl.

"Hi," the girl replied, looking somewhat shocked that Emmett had spoken to her.

"Are you enjoying the party?" Emmett asked.

"It's a little boring right now. It was a lot of fun earlier when everyone wasn't drunk."

"I'm surprised you're even at this party at all."

"Why's that?"

"Well, you're what? Four? Five months pregnant? Do you know if you want a boy or a girl?"

"What?" the girl shrieked.

"Do you want a boy or a girl?" Emmett repeated.

"You son-of-a-bitch!" the girl cried. We watched as the girl picked up a lamp and broke it against the side of Emmett's head.

"Why'd you hit me with a lamp?" Emmett whined. "Oh! Hormones, right?"

"I'm not pregnant, you asshole!" the girl yelled, before stomping off.

"Oh!" Emmett said, watching the girl leave.

"You idiot," Rose sighed, shaking her head at him.

"She wasn't carrying that much weight, Emmett," Alice chastised.

"Emmett, you should be ashamed of yourself!" I fussed. "You probably hurt her feelings!"

"You did," Jasper confirmed. "She's very upset."

"Maybe I should go apologize," Emmett said.

"No, we should leave. Now!" Edward told him.

"Let me apologize first," Emmett replied.

"Alright, Emmett," Edward said. "We'll be waiting out front for you."

We headed out front, leaving Emmett in the house.

"How come you wanted to leave, but then gave in to Emmett?" I asked Edward.

"Because Alice said to leave him alone because it's part of what's going to happen to him," he whispered.

Alice positioned us in the best spots to watch the show that was about to unfold.

Emmett's yelp was loud and clear as he came barreling out of the house, being chased by a mob of girls throwing food at him. A tomato hit him in the back of his head, while a can of soda smacked into his calf muscle. Someone threw a slice of pizza that stuck to his back.

"Quit it! It was an accident!" Emmett cried, as he tried to get away from the angry women. He took off down the street and the girls gave up the chase.

We all laughed as we climbed into the Jeep and went after our food-drenched brother.

Rose pulled up along side a running Emmett and rolled the window down. "Want a ride home?"

"I'm covered in goop!" Emmett whined, as Rose stopped the Jeep and he stopped running. "I'll never get the smell of this human food out of my upholstery."

"Ride up top," Jasper suggested. "We can use the extra bungee cords you bought for your bra to hold you up there."

"I'll make sure we don't get pulled over," Edward offered.

"Fine," Emmett relented.

"Jasper and Edward, would you please tie my husband to the roof of the Jeep?" Rose asked sweetly.

Alice and I chuckled as Edward and Jasper started grinning wickedly. Rose, Alice, and I watched as the guys tied Emmett down with the big bear whining the entire time.

Once Emmett was secured, Rose drove us home at our usual break-neck pace. When we pulled into the driveway, we all looked at each other, somehow seeming to know what each other was thinking. We nodded and headed straight into the house, leaving Emmett tied to the Jeep.

"You guys!" Emmett called, knowing we could hear him with our sensitive ears. "Please get me down. I don't want to scratch the paint job! Edward! Come on, man! Jasper! Help a brother in need!"

I giggled as I hugged Edward tightly. "I do believe that was my first and last frat party, honey. It wasn't much fun."

"I wouldn't say that," Edward chuckled. "Watching Emmett get pelted with human food was rather entertaining."

"It was," I agreed, laughing.

Edward trailed a line of kisses across my jaw-line and down my neck. "Are you ready to go to our cabin, love?"

"Yes, but I've decided I don't want to race tonight."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm enjoying being in your arms too much. If you wouldn't mind, I'd love to ride on your back like I used to."

Edward smiled brightly at me. "I would love to do that. Thank you, Bella."

I jumped up onto Edward's back. "What are you thanking me for? You're the one burdened with my weight."

"Bella, there is nothing about you that could ever be considered a burden to me, no matter how big or how small."

I smiled and kissed the back of his neck as he ran us out of the house and into the woods. "I love you, Edward."

"I love you, more," he replied.
