Bella's Point of View

"Ladies, mind of we join you?" a booming voice greeted us.

"Sure!" Alice chimed as Rose was uncharacteristically lost for words.

"I'm Emmett" he offered Alice his meaty paw of a hand.

"Alice" her tiny hand was completely engulfed by his, "These are my friends, Bella, Angela, Leah and Rosalie" she smirked.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Rosalie" Emmett took her hand, kissing it lightly.

Normally if any other member of the male population of the continental US had tried to pull this move on Rosalie Hale, they would have been on the receiving end of a sharp kick to the balls.

But she fucking giggled and batted her eyelashes at him.

If I didn't know any better I'd say she had finally met her match.

One of Emmett's friends cleared his throat loudly, causing him to reluctantly release Rose's hand.

"Ladies, meet Garrett and Demetri" Emmett pointed at each in turn.

"Want to ditch this sweat pit and grab an alcoholic beverage?" His offer was directed at all of us but he eyed Rosalie hopefully.

"Love to" she beamed letting him lead her from the dance floor, throwing us an exaggerated wink over her should.

"Our Rosie's in luuuuurve" Alice sang, stumbling her way across the dance floor dragging me with her.

I snorted with laughter and in the process tripped over the leg of an empty bar stool.

"The fuck! How'd that get there" I glared at the offending object rubbing the spot on my shin where it had smacked into the metal leg.

"Y'all right?" one of Emmett's friends questioned, what was his name again?…. Grant, Greg?

I nodded and kept my eyes firmly on my feet as we navigated our way through the crowd.

"Edward!"
