42.

This little mention is for my friend Georgie- Just to let you know, the little dog named Georgia Rose was named after her- I LOVE YOU GEORGIA!!!!!!!

Emmett's POV

The music boomed around me, and I felt like I was going to drop dead right here and now.

It was god amn 3 in the morning and the party was still going strong. Where was Carlisle and Esme's parenting instincts going to kick in?

I groaned, and I shovelled in a bite of chocolate mud cake. I also yawned half was through that bite, probably flashing my chewed up cake. I didn't really care, so I continued to chew.

I swear my nose dipped into my cake as I dozed.

Rosalie seemed to force down some cake, which surprised me. I was pretty proud of her to be honest..

I jerked my head up, and felt the frosting on my nose. I wiped it off with my finger, and licked it off.

I switched hips a couple of times, just to stay awake. Rosie was off talking to Alice, so I was on my lonesome.

I could tell someone had snuck in alcohol, judging by everyone's actions, but I was too drained to think about it. I know I wasn't drinking. Especially after last night episode.

I decided to find Carlisle and Esme, and thought we should really be wrapping it up.

I sat my cake down on the table, and pushed through the dancing crowd. Occasionally someone would nearly push me over, and spill their drink on me, but I was to occupied as to finding my parents.

I craned my neck up high, to see if they were watching over us on the staircase, or something. I was struggerling, searching everywhere.

I was watching for the flashing lights to light up Mom or Dad's skin, and I think I spotted them.. On the stairs.

I squashed through the crowd, and had to bump a few of them to get through.

I reached the stairs, huffing and puffing. They smiled at me, and Esme looked adoringly at me. Did I really look that tired?

"Yeah, you do." Edward laughed, and came up behind me with his arm around my shoulders. I rolled my eyes.

"Well it is like.. 4 o' clock in the morning!" I shrieked. I felt my heavy lids closing on me, just begging for my head to hit any pillow. I forced them open, in time to see Jasper and Edward motioning for people to leave.

"Thanks for inviting us Cullens. Great party!" Ryan whooped, and exited with Tom, Ellie and some others. Wait.. did I even know those people? Oh god. I ignored that thought, and just let everyone stream out the door.

I high fived, or punched fists with nearly everyone as they headed out the door. Last was Ellie and Tom, and they waved. I let out a sigh of relief, of they were the last ones. The whole family smiled, and I went around hugging everyone.

"Thanks for a badass party Mom, dad." I hugged them both tightly, and kissed Esme's cheek. They both laughed.

"Go to bed sweet heart." She said, and I barely nodded. I could hardly keep my head up straight. I waved one last time, and headed for the stairs. I had to hold on to the rail to keep myself up.

I finally made it up after many stumbles, and didn't even bother to get changed. I plonked loudly onto the bed, and closed my eyes. I was having trouble sleeping. This was confusing.. Maybe I was over tired or something..

I felt a set of cold arms wrap around my torso, and I smiled. I opened my eyes, and turned my head. She looked down at me, her golden eyes smoldering in the faint glow of the moon.

I turned around awkwardly, so our faces were just inches apart. I could feel her cool breath on my lips, making her all the more irresistible. I sighed. Maybe..

She tucked her hand under her cheek, and her hair spread out all over the pillow next to me. I could smell it.. chocolate.. lavender..

"I love you.. So much." She whispered, breaking the silence.

"I love you more.." I whispered back, and pressed my forehead to hers.

"Not possible."

I laughed. "I'm sorry if I'm pressuring you.." I whispered. I actually felt bad for saying those things to her before..

"Don't worry about it. I want to.. but.." She began to stress, I could tell. I put my fore - finger to her lips, and smiled.

"You're the most important person.. You're the only one I want to spend my life with." I said.

The smiled returned on her face, and she sighed. " You know, I thought I'd never find anyone. I was afraid I wouldn't ever be like Bella and Edward. I would have to spend eternity alone.."

I'm pretty sure I scrunched up my face. "Do you really think.. That.. You would never find someone.. with your beauty?"

She let a hysterical laugh, and looked at me. "But would I ever find someone, that.. would love me for me, and not my beauty?"

I looked down awkwardly. "Sure you would."

"Doubt it."

"Then I'm sure your glad I came along huh?" I laughed. She nodded.

"The little five year old who sobbed whenever I wasn't around." She laughed back.

"That's me!"

She laughed again, then we both froze. I'm not sure why. We just stared at each other, for I'm not sure how long..

I pulled her leg up from under the covers, and hitched it up on to my hip. She giggled. It was bare skin, so.. what was she wearing..? Her dress wasn't that small before.. I was puzzled.

I shrugged, and hugged her closer to me. We were so close, our chests were pressed together. Our noses were just barley touching, our legs were in – twined. But this seemed perfectly normal to me.

If any of the family walked in, they would get the wrong idea completely. I didn't really care, seeing the moment was so perfect.

We were silent, until she lightly kissed me. I responded, immediately actually. The time was right.

She got more urgent quickly, and I responded again. My hand stroked her cheek. It was ice cold, and the moon just made it more white.

Her hands knotted into my hair, and she pulled me closer to her.. if that was possible.

I moved my hand down to her shoulder, and began kissing her neck. She groaned in pleasure, and I came back up to her lips.

The blankets became tangled between our legs, and I was struggerling to move. I ignored it, until I heard our loud ripping sound.

We both looked down. The blankets were ripped into a million pieces. I laughed.

That's when I noticed what she was wearing.

She may as well have been wearing nothing at all.

I have to say she looked.. divine. The black lace looked great on her bone white skin. None of the family ever wore black. Under garments.. I wasn't so sure about.

her again, as if nothing had happened.

She began to un – do the buttons of my shirt, and I moaned. She un – did them all in a matter of seconds, and I saw my shirt fly across the room. I had already removed my jacket, so now I was bare - chested. What would be next, my pants? I laughed at myself.

I began kissing her neck again, and she wrapped her arms around my neck, and I grabbed a handful of silk, and tugged on it.

I was disappointed when she pulled away, and pushed me back. I looked at her, confused. "What's wrong?"

"Mmmm.." She murmured. "I'm sorry, it's just.. I.. I can't..I.."

I hugged her to me, and pressed her head into chest. I hushed her soothingly, as she continued to apologize over, and over again.

"Don't worry about it." I said. "Tonight was great- And I'm thankful for that alone, but- Please, please, don't wear lingerie if you decide to lie next to me. Or I'll lose control."

She laughed, and let out a sigh. She leaned up next to my ear, and murmured seductively. "Soon.. I promise."

I sighed. "Okay.. You know I can't wait."

She nodded. "Oh I know. Me either."

I nodded, and my eyes slid closed.

"What time is it?" I murmured. I felt her head on my shoulder.

"Ugh.. 4:30." She whispered.

"Jesus."

"I know. You've had a huge night."

I nodded in agreement. "Mmm.. If I don't wake up tomorrow- You'll know why."

She laughed. "I'll be sure not to wake you."

"Thanks."

"Hey, one other thing- What do you rate my body out of 10?" She murmured.

"10."

"Be serious, please."

"I am! You're gorgeous."

She laughed. "You know what I rate yours?"

"What?"

"10."

"How did I guess that? I must be psychic."

"I suppose we're just a hot looking pair."

"Damn right!" I whooped, probably a little too loud.

"KEEP IT DOWN UP THERE!" Jasper yelled from down stairs. "I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING!"

"Shut up Jaz." I laughed.

"YOU KNOW YOU LOVE ME!" He yelled back. I laughed at my idiotic brother.

"Anyway.. What you going to do tomorrow?" She murmured.

"Hmm.. sleep, sleep and more sleep."

"Other than that?"

"Sleep."

"That makes sense." We both laughed. "Sleep with me?"

That sent a shiver up my spine. I ignored it, and put my hands above my head.

"I wish." I whispered.

"Oh c'mon. You know if you weren't so fragile, we'd do it now." She giggled.

"Well I'd better toughen up then." I laughed back. "Better hit the gym then."

"No!" She said. "I like you now!"

"All soft and squishy?" I said.

"Yes."

I sighed. She can be so stubborn. "So.. what you going to do tomorrow?"

"Umm.. I might go shopping with Esme, go hunting.."

"Can I PLEASE go hunting with you?"

"NO!" She half yelled. I leant back.

"Sorry. Touchy subject. Forgot." I said, and put my arms up as if surrender.

"You know I hate that. You will NEVER, I repeat NEVER, come hunting." She growled.

"But you'd look so sexy sucking the guts out of a Grizzly." I laughed.

"Ha. Best joke I've heard all day." She laughed sarcastically. "But seriously.. Don't even joke. It's dangerous. More dangerous than me sleeping with you."

"I doubt it."

"You wanna bet? When I hunt, my instincts take ove—"

"Shouldn't your instincts take over during sleeping with me anyway?" I laughed nervously.

"Shut up!" She smacked me in the arm playfully. "And besides. your only 16! What would Carlisle and Esme think of me! It's like I'm stealing away your innocence!"

"Pfft. As if. They'd be thrilled."

She gave me a Are – you – serious – you – idiot look. I shrugged it off.

"Your family!" I laughed.

"That makes us sound like ferals. Ew. It'd be like- 'Oh look, there's the chick who's sleeping with her brother!'." She laughed, and put on a fake accent.

"So? Who cares what the hell they think of us?" I said, and rubbed her cheek with the back of my hand.

She nodded, and looked down. "You should really sleep. It's so late—I mean, early."

"I don't wanna." I did a fake pout, and she laughed.

"You'll be falling over tomorrow!" She laughed.

"Can I fall on you?" I said, then laughed. "It would be like the song, 'Fall for You', by Second Seranade. Ha! I crack myself up!"

"You're an idiot."

"Thanks. I'll take that as a compliment, thankyou very much."

She rolled her eyes playfully. "Just go to sleep, Little Emmett."

I smiled at my old name.

"'k. You win."

I rolled over onto my side, and shut my eyes. I took a deep breath, and thought about the day to come..

I woke up at a ridiculous hour this morning, moaning and groaning as I do. I defiantly was not a morning person..

"Good morning Emmett," Rose whispered into my ear, sending shivers through my stiff body. "How are you?"

"Ugh.. I'm good.. What the hell is the time?" I asked, my voice sounding whispy.

"It's 9:30. Guess you won't be sleeping all day, eh?" She whispered.

"I can't promise that."

She laughed, and I heard the ruffling of the silk against her skin. Last night came flooding back, and I grinned.

"What is it?" She asked.

"I just remembered last night, and what you're wearing!"

She nodded. "You liked it?"

"Hell yes!"

I suddenly felt wide - awake now, although I stayed up till 4:30 kissing Rosalie. She giggled.

"I'll be sure to wear this more often then.." She murmured seductively. She winked, and I grinned widely. "Well.. We better be getting up."

I nodded, and through the ripped shreds of the covers off me. I was still wearing no shirt, which made me cold. I shivered again.

I searched around for my shirt, looking everywhere. High and low.. near and far..

"Hey Rose?"

"Yeah,"

"Where in the world did you throw my shirt?"

"Um.. I can smell it.. On top of the wardrobe." She said. She was standing up right in front of the glass, and I gasped when I saw her fully.

The sun shined through the trees, creating a pattern on my white carpeted floor. She was running her fingers through her hair, sending waves of chocolate my way. She was slightly sparkling, sending reflections around the room like a disco ball. My eyes ran up and down her tall frame, and I instantly forgot about my shirt. She laughed like a angel, and walked to my side of the bed.

"Would you like me to get your shirt?"

I nodded like a zombie, and she laughed again. She walked gracefully over to my wardrobe, and leaned up to grab my shirt.

She may have been wearing nothing at all.

I watched in awe as she threw my shirt to me, and waltzed out of the room. She blew a kiss, and I smiled at her. I shook my head from side to side, trying to return to my old self.

I slid my shirt over my shoulders, and did up the buttons with shaky hands. I walked to my mirror, to check what I looked like.

Alice had insisted we get a full - length mirror, seeing I had to check what I looked like from head to toe.

My hair was sticking out all directions. It looked like Edward after he walks out of their room.. Ew!

I tried to smooth down my hair, but failed miserably. I gave up after 10 minutes, and settled for my do.

I trotted down the stairs, and walked into the living room.

The familiar white house felt comforting, and I had grown to love Alabama. Not as much as Forks, but still cool.

Alice, Rose, Bella, Edward and Jasper were sitting side by side on the white lounge, grinning their butts off. I looked at them, and raised an eye – brow. Rosie winked at me, and I smiled. That just set them off into a fit of giggles.. and chanting.

"Emmett and Rose sitting in a tree! k-i-s-s-i-n-g!"

I rolled my eyes, but couldn't help laughing.

"First comes love! Then comes marriage! Then comes the baby in the golden carriage!"

I saw Rosie sigh, and look down. Everybody stopped immediately, when they'd realised what they'd said.

"Sorry.." Alice whispered. "Touchy subject.."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and I walked over to the lounges. I kneeled down behind the arm – rest, seeing there was no more room on the couch. I got down to eye level, so I could speak to her. Not privately of course..

"Rosie?" I whispered. "You okay Honey?"

She shrugged. ".. Yeah."

"You're lying. I can tell. Don't be sad.. We could adopt?"

"It's not the same."

"Well.. Carlisle and Esme adopted me, and I'm still like a son to them, right?"

She nodded, then sighed. "But you're special. You always have been. Your not like another child."

"Sure I am."

"No, your not."

"How?"

She sighed in what I think was impatience, and looked down. "You were different. We connected to you right away, from the moment saw you. But.. When Carlisle told us to run, I got scared. I could smell the blood, but I thought it was yours."

"But you weren't there, I remember it clearly. I saw you for the first time when they brought me home.."

"But I was there. You just couldn't see me yet. I was praying and praying that it wasn't your blood your were swamped in."

I sighed. "I'm sorry."

"'s 'k. I live. Not technically of course.. Ha ha."

I laughed with her, and stood up, to walk to the kitchen. I wobbled a bit, and heard whispers from behind me.

Carlisle and Esme were working over the stove together, talking. I coughed, as to signal I was there.

"Emmett!" They both shrieked, and walked over to me. I held my arms out to them.

I hugged Esme tightly, and she kissed my cheek. Carlisle hugged me, that patted me on the shoulder. I smiled at them, till I smelt a gross smell. I sniffed the air..

"Is something burning in here?" I asked.

They both looked at each then they were at the stove in a 3rd of a second, laughing at each other.

"What happened?"

"The bacon burned a little bit. It's okay." Esme laughed to herself. I smiled at them.

Silly Esme. Silly Carlisle. Silly parents.

I laughed my booming laughed, and soon the whole family was in the kitchen, laughing too.

I walked to the stove, and stood between them both. I stole a bit of bacon, and put it in my mouth.

"It's still good!" I whooped. Everybody laughed, and I chewed on my tasty bacon.

OMG Im soooooooooo sorry for the late update, ive been so busy lately. I'm sorry if this is boring and un eventful, but I hope u still like it.

Love ya all, Bella xx
