Summary: Emmett disagrees with his family, especially Edward,for leaving a heartbroken Bella behind after her birthday incident, so he decides to return and care for her.
" I wouldn't have left her like you did!"
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight. Stephanie Myer is the respective owner, I'm just fooling around with the characters.
Emmett gawked- a precarious, but unnecessary breath hitched in his throat. He was utterly dumbfounded as he held the blonde to the marble floor- one of his hands propping himself from the floor, and the other loosening on her neck. He could barely get words to come out of his mouth- let alone think about what to say- those extrinsic- looking, topaz eyes narrowing into his.
" As much as I love the idea of being in a rough and kinky position- this just doesn't cut it," Came a besotted regard from her pale, red lips. He releases his hold on her immediately and jumps to his feet. Standing just a couple short feet away from where she now stood, he blinked- the bewildered expression on his face, now replaced with one of caution.
" What the hell are you doing here?"
" Do I really have to answer that Emmett?" She didn't need to necessarily, I mean it was stupid to even ask in the first place. She came to Forks to see him, probably try to talk him out of getting involved with Bella. I mean for one, she wouldn't have any other reasons for coming here. She absolutely hated the weather and how close-knit everything was; and she especially hated Bella Swan.
What else was there to come back to?
" I didn't really think you-"
"- You didn't think I'd do what? That I would come back for you?" She interrupted incrediously- a sad look in her eyes. His fists clenched at his sides at the distress in her voice. He took a step forward.
" I know Rose.. and I'm sorry for what I've done- for what I've put you through, but-"
" You don't know the half of what you put me through! I have been devastated these past few days- embarrassed because my own husband walked out on me- and for another girl! You left me for her! Because I didn't agree with your decision to come back here? For something that wasn't any of our business in the first place? Do have any idea how heartbroken I am?"
He felt terrible.
She really did make him out to be a horrible person- but he didn't really think about how she would react before he left. All that mattered to him then was getting to Bella, and ensuring that she was able to cope with Edward's absence. He cared about her; so much that it hard to accept at times. He cared about Rosalie just as much- hell she was his wife.
But was what she was suggesting true?
Did he actually leave her for Bella?
Was he that cruel and inconsiderate?
What made matters even worse was the fact that he wasn't denying any of it.
He didn't know what to say.
" Rose...I- I'm just as confused about all of this as you are," He confessed softly, and ran a hand through his hair. He took another few steps forward and until he was at arms length, and she averted her eyes from his, looking away. His jaw clenched as he watched her chest rise and fall as she folded her arms over it- and met his gaze again.
He hated himself for what he had done. He had never even considered her reaction to any of this once Bella entered his mind. Rosalie had been the one that he married- that he had been through everything with and held close through thick and thin. She had been the one in fact, that saved his life- and kept him alive all these centuries.
Her eyes that were moments before narrow and cold, had softened into a glossy topaz.
" What makes her so special; so much more desirable than me?" She muttered. " Do you find her clumsiness attractive? Or the fact that she was Edward's and you just had to have her too? Were you getting tired of me in bed?" She added, her voice cracking as she chuckled sadly. He stared into her eyes with the same sad expression and cracked a small grin placing his hands on either of her shoulders.
If she could cry properly, he knew, she'd have tears streaming down her face right now.
And so would he.
" I'm so sorry Rosalie. I never meant for this to happen. I really can't... explain why I care about her the way that I do right now but, just know that I'll never stop caring about you too," He paused, forcing her to look into his eyes when she looked away. " You know I love you Rose,"
She embraced him then, and he wrapped his arms around her, resting his chin on her shoulder. He sighed.
" I love you too," She paused, and she lifted her head to meet his eyes.
"So much that it hurts for me to let you go like this," He went rigid when he felt her arms wrap around his neck, and then she pulled him in for a kiss. He froze and stood there, unmoving. Finally after a few moments, she pulled away, and his eyes glued to hers as he felt the familiar softness of her lips.
But other than that- he surprisingly felt nothing else about it. And Rosalie could clearly see that, as she sighed when she released from him.
" But I... didn't come here to.. fight, or even fight for you; because it's clear that we were never meant to be together in the first place; no matter how inevitable our love seemed to be for each other,"
She looked away as she trailed off and inhaled softly. He couldn't help but feel she was keeping something from him, but he didn't think now was an appropiate time to pry.
"I..came here.. to help,"
" What?" Emmett exclaimed.
" I came here to help you Emmett. With Bella,"
"Rose-"
"- You said it yourself. Ishould know what it's like to feel alone and neglected; like your life's turned completely upside down, and you're heart is shattered because of that one person that meant the absolute world to you,"
He flinched; realizing he was probably second on her list now.
" Even if she does have you, I want to be there for her too. And I don't want to leave you either. I care about you way too much Em,"
" Then you don't have to go. You can stay here with me," He replied, as he embraced her into another hug. She chuckled lightly.
" Where else would I go?"
Author's Note: Hey guys, I know this is short but I hope you enjoyed it. I really just wanted to get this out there soon, because I've been so busy I haven't had time to update. But I am very grateful for all the alerts I've still been getting, as well as the alerts.
Thank you so much to anubisfreak, hdcj8811, psychovampirefreak, Team-Sooric- Delena, jessa76, limezebra, PiperMcLean351, InuNekoLexi, and gail, for reviewing! You guys are still amazing, and I love the reviews you give me. I know this chapter might not have been expected for most of you, but it is part of the plot, so yeah.
Also, I just recently found out that my real father( whom I haven't seen since I was eight), has passed away, and not only that, but two months before; which is still fishy to me, as well as my Mum and grandmother.
Not to mention this is my last year of high school and I've been working on projects for my Photography class.
So basically, it's been hectic. :/
But I'm back, and if you want, I'll try to update soon!
Anyways, you know what to do!
Review! :)
