After spending another night at Bella's, I came home to find Emmett was waiting for me in my room. Will he ever leave me alone? Probably not. I seem to be his favourite family member for some reason. That or because he always has something he can hold over me so I end up being forced to spend time with him. I don't know why he has to pick on me in particular. He never picks on Jasper, he sometimes bothers Alice, he knows not to annoy Rose and Esme and he only bugs Carlisle when he needs something that the rest of us can't help him with.

"What the hell do you want Emmett?" I sighed.

"I just want to know why you're so depressed around me. Jasper and I were talking and he told me that you always get a bit huffy whenever we spend time together. And I asked him what your deal was and he says it's that you're always in such a depressing mood when I'm around you. Why?"

Jasper has this ability to sense and manipulate other people's emotions. I guess that's why Emmett doesn't spend a lot of time around Jasper. Because anytime that Emmett gets over excited around Jasper he calms him down and it annoys the hell out of Emmett. The rest of us find it pretty entertaining.

In the past, Jasper has tried to make me feel better about spending time with Emmett but it doesn't always work. Especially because we are now spending almost every moment together when I'm not with Bella.

"I'm not depressed. Jasper's talking crap. I might get annoyed around you but I'm not depressed. Now would you go away? I have to decide what we're teaching at school. I'm running out of things to talk about in class."

"Maybe we should go on another trip. They're fun and you don't actually make me do anything. Please?"

"Hmm...But where would we go? There's not much you can do with stalking. Seriously I just teach people things they already know how to do. It's stupid."

"Well you better think of something. Because otherwise Bella's gonna find out you're a big stalker."

"Thanks for reminding me."

Emmett turned to leave when Alice burst through the door of my room. "Edward, why do I have visions of you going into MIKE NEWTON'S room?"

"No reason..." I say walking off. The less she knew the better, but knowing Alice she'd be watching my every decision. I never really figured out how that worked with her, but Alice says she just thinks about a particular person and she gets flashes of visions about them. Again, it's just one of those things Carlisle doesn't know how to explain. So we just take Alice's word for it.

Ever since Emmett and I caught Mike in Bella's room I have been trying to think of a way to get revenge. I got a little bit of it when Mike was humiliated in front of the whole stalking class and Jessica dumped him but I feel like there's something more that we could do.

It's pretty clear that Mike hates me now and I know he's been thinking of a way to get back at me for what I did to him in class and for stealing Bella. Not that I really 'stole' Bella from him because he didn't have a chance with her to begin with. So I decided that before Mike has a chance to get his revenge on me that I was going to get mine. I don't really know where this vengeful streak was coming from. I think I just needed a distraction from Emmett, Bella and the mysterious stalker I have.

I ended up sitting in the library staring at a blank Word document trying to think about what I was going to do to get Newton to cry like a baby. I had decided to really take my time planning this thing out and to do that I had to document. I guess I had always wanted to accomplish something in my vampire life that didn't involve killing. And getting my revenge on Newton without killing him was going to be an accomplishment in itself.
