Emmett's POV

"I won't let them hurt Rosalie or Emmalie." I tell Edward.
"What are you going to do?" He stares at me.
"I don't know."
"Emmett... You're not going to be able to stop them. They'll kill you."
"Better me dead then the girls."
"Emmett!" Edward raises his voice, "They'll kill them anyway. Look, I know you feel."
I think for a bit... Do I go back? What was I going to do anyway? We can't go into hiding. The Volturi will find us thanks to Demetri.
"I'm going." I make my final decision.
I start to walk off into the darkness of the street. We are just outside the diner. Luckily, it's late at night so it's not open. Edward pulls my arm back and holds a tight grip on it. I pull my arm out of his grip and speed off.

Rosalie's POV

"Emmett is going to the Volturi." Says Edward. I feel my heart sink into my chest.
"For what cause?" Asks Carlisle.
"He thinks that if he sacrifices himself, the girls will be safe."
"We'll be killed anyway!" I raise my voice, but not too loud to wake Emmalie. If I was human, I might have already had an emotional break down.
"We have to go to the Volturi, to stop him!" I utter.
"It's too dangerous." Says Edward.
"I don't care!" I start to raise my voice again.
"I'll go with Rosalie." Says Bella. Really? She would do that for me... We haven't been the best of friends, so why would she do that for me?
"Really?" I smile. She nods her head.
"Rosalie, we can't all go because it's too dangerous. They'll think its their perfect time to attack, since the whole family will be there." Says Carlisle, "Edward, Alice and Bella will be the best ones to go with you."
"Then we'll go." Alice says, "we'll leave in the morning."
I hear small footsteps walking into the living room. They stop and a little whisper comes from the entry.
"Mummy?"
I walk over the entry and see Emmalie clutching her doll and tears in her eyes. "Mummy... Where is daddy? I want him to tuck me back into bed." Sighs Emmalie.
"I don't know where daddy is. Daddy might be gone for a while." I admit to her.
A single tear glides down Emmalie's soft cheeks. I wipe it away with my hand.
"He loves you a lot." I tell her. She nods her head and shakes away her pain.
"I love you as well." I smile.
She smiles and blushes her cheeks.
"Do you want me to tuck you into bed?" Says Esme, leaning down to Emmalie's height.
"Yes please Grandma Esme." Emmalie leans into Esme and she lifts Emmalie into her arms.
Then Esme and Emmalie disappear up the stairs.
"How did you even deal with the pain?" I ask Bella and Edward, "not knowing if your family would be safe."
"In a way you don't... But you have to stay strong." Says Edward, "you can't break down. Emmalie needs you."
If I could cry, I would cry. Emmett's my rock and with out him, I'm feel lost.
"I think I'm going to go see Emmalie. It will make me feel better." I say and speed up the stairs to Emmalie's room.
I knock on the door and slowly open it. Esme strokes Emmalie's blonde ringlets as Emmalie flutters her eyes open.
"Mummy!" She jumps from her bed and runs to hug me. Esme stands up.
"She was asking for you." Esme says and leaves the room.
"Thank you." I say before she leaves. I hold Emmalie's hand and then tuck her into her bed. I lay beside her drawing circles with my thumb on her palm.
"Tell me a story?" Emmalie looks up at me. I see my reflection in her crystal blue eyes.
"Okay. Well, what story do you want to hear?" I ask her.
"How you met daddy."
"Um," I chuckle, "I was hunting in the woods and I saw daddy being harmed by a bear. I stopped the bear and carried daddy back to Grandpa Carlisle so he could get better. He called me his angel. After that we were inseparable," for a bit I forget that I am talking to Emmalie and I start talking to myself, "we became married. We never stopped loving each other. We still love each other."
••••••••••••••••••
A knock at the door wakes me from my day dream. Emmalie is still asleep and because I don't sleep I'm awake.
"Come in." I whisper so that only a Vampire can hear me. Alice opens the door and smiles.
"It's time to go." She whispers back.
I look down at Emmalie. I don't know if I'm going to be able to spend so much time away from her. Also the fact that this might be the last time I'll ever see her again. I feel my heart sink into my chest. The unconditional love I have for her is getting to me. I kiss her on her forehead and stroke her blonde curls for what might be, the last time.
I stand up off the bed and take one last look at my sleeping Angel. Beautiful. She is much more prettier than I ever was, or that I will ever be. I sigh and walk past Alice down the stairs. I go into the office and grab a piece of paper and a pen. I sit down and begin to write a letter to Emmalie,

Dear Emmalie,
Mummy loves you so much. I'm sorry I had to go. Please promise me that you will be a good girl and will listen to Grandpa Carlisle and Grandma Esme. Never stop being your funny, beautiful self.
I love you. Forever and always.
Love mumma xx

I fold the piece of paper and quickly super speed up the stairs to Emmalie's room and place the note beside her bed, Emmalie still sound asleep. I look at her in awe. Then I run back down the stairs.
Alice has hold my bag for me.
"Thank you." I say.
"Off to Italy." Sighs Bella.
Then Bella, Edward, Alice and I all leave for the airport.
