Secrets (Emmett Cullen Twilight fanfic)

Chapter 22

*NO POV* (play the song and hate me while you're at it)

Emmett slammed on the breaks, swerving out of the way. They were going too fast to stop completely, causing the car to crash into trees on the forest line that bordered the road. Nichole's screams fell silent only to be replaced my Emmett's deep ones.

"NICHOLE!" He screamed. In an instant Alice was by the side of the car while Emmett was scrambling out. Alice was pulling off the door which was badly crushed inward. They could smell blood from the inside of the car.

Emmett reached in the car pulling Nichole's limp body out of the passenger seat. Snapping the seat belt for Emmett, Alice backed away giving him room to take Nichole out. Her eyes were open but unfocusing on anything in front of her. Blood leaked down the side of her face, looking like tear stains starting on her forehead. Blood cascaded down her outstretched arm, dripping off her fingers. Emmett set her down away from the car, her heart was beating still but the blood she was losing was too much for her little body to handle. More heart beats filled his ears, a disgusting smell filled his nose.

"Oh my god." A deep voice gasped. Three wolves stood there in human form. Emmett recognized Sam, and Jacob, but the last one the smallest one he did not.

"You killed her!" Alice screamed. "Look at what you've done!"

"No!" Sam breathed. "She's alive still!" A horror ridden expression etched into his face.

"She's dying you dumbass! She's losing to much blood!" Emmett yelled. "She's dying and it's your fault!"

"I only meant stop you, not cause an accident!" Sam defended.

"It doesn't matter!" Alice screamed again.

"She's not going to make it is she?" Jacob asked sadly.

"No. She won't. She's lost too much blood already." Emmett hissed.

"Em..." A voice rasped.

"Hey. Hold on a little longer okay? Jasper is getting Carlisle." Emmett took Nichole's bloody hands gently.

"It hurts. Worse than last time." She cried.

"I know it does. Baby you're strong. Fight it, stay awake okay?"

"Okay." She whispered.

"They're almost here. Can you squeeze my hand?" Nichole squeezed gently trying to fight the urge to close her eyes.

"I don't want to die." She cried. Tears streaming down her face. "I don't want to leave you."

"It'll all be over soon. Don't worry." Emmett whispered.

"I love you Emmett. I'm sorry." Nichole croaked losing consciousness again. A sob escaped from Alice's mouth followed by one from Emmett. Jacob too was crying silently because his best friend was dying. Alice was losing her sister, her family. Someone who finally indulged in her love for fashion, someone who she didn't mind spending all day at the mall with.

"Change her." Sam whispered. "It's our fault, she doesn't deserve this kind of death. With all she's been through, she finally had something to live for. Go ahead." He turned around walking back into the forest. The other wolves reluctantly followed their leader back into the woods.

Emmett looked down at Nichole shocked as the words sunk in. Leaning down kissing her lips lightly he moved to her neck. Sinking his teeth into the flesh of her he willed himself to pull off of her. Gently licking the bite mark he moved to her wrists to do the same. Alice held Nichole's head in her lap stroking her hair gently.

"We need to get her back." Emmett said quietly wiping the blood from his mouth. He cradled Nichole's body against his running back to the Cullen house. Nichole twitched in his body every so often, small screams escaping her lips.

"It'll all be over soon." Emmett whispered.
