A/N: Okay, let me address something here. Mesme is getting flamed, badly. Here is the thing... when my husband decided that he needed "a new start," his family backed him up. No one really cared about me anymore as if I wasn't there for the past 10 fucking years. Mesme is written how I wished his mom would have reacted in some way. To look for my interests because I'm the one in the wrong, not her son. Now, Mesme doesn't know the real details, so she is in a way being at least sensitive to someone who to her knowledge is about to not only lose a husband, but a child included. WE clear? Cool. On with the show.

Chapter 53

EPOV

Alice comes by for a quick visit but leaves as soon as she spots the new employee named Jupiter, or something equally stupid.

Riley's visit is strange to say the least.

He walks in, takes a look at her, wishes me luck and walks out.

Just like that.

Good fucking riddance.

Emmett is sitting with me when T storms in demanding answers.

"How is my baby? I can't believe she would put my baby at risk like that."

My blood boils and I swear to God my ears pop from the rage I'm feeling.

I'm about to stand up and show her exactly how I'm feeling, but a strong grip on my shoulder stops me.

Emmett, the quiet brother, the one who Bella always pushes around just because she claims she is making him tough, stands up and corners her by the door.

"Your baby you say? Tell me something, Tanya. Do you even know if the baby is a boy or girl? How about how far along in the pregnancy Bella is? Why don't you just tell me anything about the pregnancy. Anything at all."

"I...I don't need to know the sex. It's my baby anyway. Whatever it is, is fine," she says, defiantly.

"Oh, really? Whatever it is? Like some kind of object or animal, it?" he taunts her.

She turns to look at me. "Eddie, aren't you going to defend your wife?"

On instinct I look at Bella.

Big mistake. Not because I regret it... I could have avoided the train wreck.

"You fucking bastard! I knew you were cheating on me with that skank. This was your plan, wasn't it?

What did I see in her?

"Tanya, Tranny," mocks Emmett. "I can give you a whole long list of why Eddie here is not going to defend you. Let's see..." he points at a finger for each reason "...you don't help to provide for the home, you're quite stupid, selfish, the pussy ain't good." He looks at me questioningly. "Am I missing anything else?"

I shake my head in amusement.

Leave it to Emmett to notice more things than he's supposed to.

Although he's right about everything, I wouldn't have told her things in that manner.

He continues his little tirade. "How does it feel to be you, Tranny? Always begging a guy for attention, using sex as a way to get a reaction? Even Viagra does that, and I know for a fact that Eddie here even reacts to Old Lady Cope."

Fucking Emmett.

He is never going to let me live that down.

Of course I would get a boner. She was the first set of real live boobs that I saw and she happened to be at least 16 years younger.

"Stop embarrassing yourself," he continues. "Stop being his second choice and look for someone who will make you their first."

"He's right," adds Rosalie, closing the door behind her. "You're never going to be truly happy with this asshole."

I roll my eyes because I'm not that bad.

She walks up to T and whispers something in her ear.

T's eyes widen and she nods a bit before she finally walks out without a second glance.

Before she reaches the door, Emmett gives her more advice. "Make sure that when you get the divorce papers you sign them without a fuss. Oh and, Tanya, say "hi" Vick and Jamie for me."

Who are Vick and Jamie?

Without another word, Emmett stands guard by the door.

And he has become the strong person he was meant to be.

A/N: Reviews are the same as Emmie becoming Emmett... Oh you just better leave me some luv.
