Dusk // Twilight // Emmett Cullen [ON HOLD]

36. Strenth

ALLISON

I roll over and pull the blanket around me tighter. I reach my arm out in search of my phone but frown when my hand meets ice cold tile. I groggily open my eyes and check my surroundings.

"Emmett?" I call out sitting up then dragging my hand down my face. "Where's my phone?"

"It should be by the couch." He responds from somewhere in the house.

"The couch is missing." I state standing up then wrapping the blanket around myself. "What time is it?" I start walking toward the bedroom.

"Uh, I don't know. Do you know what happened to the clock?" He asks.

"Just check the clock in Darcy's room." I drop the blanket once I'm in the bedroom and go through the closet. "I'll search and clean once I'm dressed."

"It's 12:30." My phone starts to ring, "I found your phone, it's Silas."

"Answer it please, it's probably Darcy." I slide into a bra and underwear and search for an outfit. I grumble and just grab a sun dress. I throw it on as I walk out to find Emmett. I jump on his back. "Hi Darcy."

"Hi Mommy!" She smiles and waves, "can I stay with uncle Silas again please?"

"As long as it's fine with him." I shrug and then kiss Emmett on the side of the head. She calls for Silas and he appears in the picture.

"Mommy said it's up to you." She states staring him down.

"Okay," he shrugs, "we're gonna go get our nails done."

"Don't let her get anything extreme." I say sternly.

"Fine!" He groans, "Darcy go look at the book and find something you might want."

"Okay, bye mommy! Bye daddy!" She waves and then disappears.

"Bye!" Emmett and I say simultaneously.

"Okay so, I'll bring her over about 6:30 tomorrow." He leans against the couch, "Unless you need more time to replace and fix furniture."

"What makes you think that we broke anything?" I quirk a brow.

"Girl, I see the couch in the dining room." He deadpans with sass.

"Hey, I found the couch." Emmett smirks and I smack him in the head. "Ouch."

"So I'll let you guys get back to yourselves," he pauses, "Darcy come say bye!" Darcy comes back in to frame holding the polish book.

"Bye mommy, bye daddy I love you!" She grins.

"Bye Darcy, I love you." I smile at her.

"Bye pumpkin, I love you, don't be mean and behave." Emmett smiles and she sticks her tongue out.

"Bye guys." Silas waves and we hang up. Emmett tosses my phone down and I get off of his back.

"Is it even worth putting the couch back?" Emmett wraps his arms around my waist and pulls my flush against him. He gently kisses my neck.

"We could at least put back in the living room. It doesn't have to go in the right spot, but it should probably go in the living room." I grab onto his arms.

"It won't stay very long." His hands slowly slide down.

"Touché." I lean my head against his shoulder.

"You up for another round?" He smirks at me.

"What is this, like round 60 something?" I scoff gripping his biceps.

"I lost count at 40." He grabs my hips and lifts me up.

"Let's go upstairs," I jump out of his arms and start to the stairs, "to that spare room with just my old bed in it."

"I'll race you." He winks and I start up the stairs, removing the dress in the process. As I enter the room, I dive on to the bed. Emmett appears in the doorway, shirtless.

"Looks like I won." I prop myself up on my elbows.

"You threw your dress in my face, that's cheating." He closes the door with his heel.

"No I was just using my resources." I shrug and then smirk. He speeds over and pins me to the bed with my hands above my head.

"I don't think so." He stares down at me. I try to flip us over but I fail, "Now I win."

"Not a chance in hell, love." I wrap my legs around his waist and manage to flip us over. My hands wrap around his wrists and I smile triumphantly.

"I still win," his eyes go straight to my chest, "I've got the better view."

Uh yeah, long time no see... Sorry...
Also this kind of sucks but I've practically lost all motivation for my books. I also have to write essays constantly for my classes, but I'm gonna try to be more active with updates. I'm terrible, I know. Please bare with me. Not bear, there is not a bear with me.
