Chapter Eight

Emma's Pov

Knocking on the door I take a deep breath in and release it as I start to bite my lower lip anxiously. 

I know for a fact Bella is here and that she won't leave before I do because she hates me. 

I made good friends with the Cullen's while I lived there and she became very hateful towards me even before mike died and I don't even know why. 

"Hey Emma," Billy exclaimed, opening the door. "Hi Billy nice to see you" I greeted him politely. 

"Jake is out helping Bella with something in the garage and I'm starting to make lunch" he informed me with a smile. 

"Need any help?" I asked not wanting to go see his son or Bella "if you would like" he agreed and led me into the kitchen. 

For being an elder in a wheelchair he is very fast. "I hope burgers and chips are okay? I wasn't sure what you would like," he told me, handing me the burger buns. 

"That sounds perfect. My grandfather and I made burgers back in Arizona all the time, before my mother died he was a great cook" I informed him with a smile. 

"Alright I’m gonna go get the patty's off the grill and get the other two teens" he explained before leaving.

Billy is really easy to talk to and super sweet Jake must love him. Feeling my phone vibrate in my pocket I pull it out to see a text from Cameron asking where I am. 

Shaking my head I put my phone away with a sigh. I mean I don't understand why he cares so much all of a sudden, I mean he hit me yesterday and didn't even realize I was talking to him verbally. 

"Alright Emma, Jake, Bella let's dig in,” Billy said walking in with Bella and Jake in tow. Jake and I make eye contact and I get my first good look at him. He’s tall, with short brown hair. He's also super ripped.

"Hi," I say, starting to feel awkward. 

A/n: edited
I know this is so short but I’m making it a goal to finish editing all of the existing chapters today and I removed quite a bit from this chapter
