Who: Emmett and Rosalie
What: Emmett is a little weirded out by Alice right now.
Where: The Cullen House
When: August 20, a few hours after the four wheeling trip.
Emmett was a little concerned about Alice, she had been acting very strange and barely letting him out of her sight. It was making him feel incredibly self conscious. He had deduced that something in her visions had startled her, and now he was starting to question his immortality and it made being around Alice vaguely terrifying. He was tempted to ask if she'd seen something involving him, and his untimely death at the hands of some werewolf, or unknown vampire, or something like that. It was starting to freak him out.
It was strange enough that she'd gone four wheeling with him but when he'd run up to the video store she'd gone with him then, when he'd left to go to the bookstore, she'd accompanied him there too. It had started to become a bit of a challenge to him now, the great 2007 "Hide from Alice" challenge. He was about to walk into his bedroom when she appeared
again. "Alice, I'm going to..." He paused. "Alice I'm going to go and spend some alone time with Rosie, please, please for the love of God do not listen at the door. I don't know why you're so clingy today, and I love you too, I really do, but please. Get a hobby. Just for a few hours. If you're lonely Jasper is out in the shed doing something ridiculous I'm sure. Edward and Bella are around here somewhere
not having sex, so I'm sure they'd be glad to keep you company. Esme is out with Carmen but sweetheart, she has her phone. Go join them. Please." He said in a desperate tone, but still very sweet. The more she was around the more he was reminded that his death was probably right around the corner. And that wasn't a fun thought.
She nodded a bit at him, mumbled an 'I'm sorry,' and turned to leave. He groaned and put his hand on her shoulder. Telling Alice no was kind of like kicking a puppy and he felt awful about it. "Cheer up kid, seriously. I'll tell you what, later all of us will hang out okay? We'll watch movies, or go for a walk, or something, it'll be awesome. Now turn that frown upside down and go play ninjas with Jasper in the shed," he said pushing on her nose. She forced a smile and turned and walked down the stairs.
He went into his bedroom where Rosalie was sitting on the bed reading the book he'd got her and he crossed the room quickly and jumped onto the bed and bounced the whole damn thing as he did so. He kicked his feet up and put his arms behind his head and sighed loudly. "Is it just me or is Alice acting weird?" he asked, not like she would know, she'd been up here in reading mode all damn day. But still, it was better to start with that than 'I think I'm going to die.'
