"Here, I got you another one," I said, handing my dad a beer.

He's cleaning his gun right now and Bella and I have been dreading to ask him a question.

"Thanks," he said.

"I have a date with Edward Cullen and Blake has one with Emmett Cullen," Bella blurted.

I smacked her arm and glared at her. Dad is going to kill us.

"They're a little old for you, aren't they?" My dad asked.

"No. They're Juniors and so are we," Bella said. "I thought you liked the Cullens?"

"I thought you didn't like any of the boys in town," he said, taking a sip of his beer.

"Edward and Emmett don't live in town...technically," I said.

"Edward is right outside," Bella said.

"He is?" My dad asked.

"Yeah, he wanted to meet you...officially. Emmett couldn't make it, though."

"Alright," my dad said, closing his gun, causing me to jump, "Bring him in."

"Um, could you be nice?" Bella asked. "He's, he's important."

My dad made a motion around his head with his finger before Bella jogged outside to get Edward.

After my dad met Edward, Bella and I got into Emmett's Jeep.

"Since when do vampires play baseball?" Bella asked.

"Well, it's the American pastime and, uh, there's a thunderstorm coming. It's the only time we can play." Edward explained to both of us as he put a hat on my sister's head.

I gave him a weird look.

"You'll see why," the boy said.

Edward drove us to a clearing where I saw Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice, Ray, Carlisle, and Esme.

Edward stopped the Jeep and the three of us got out. I made eye contact with Emmett and blushed, causing him to smirk.

"Oh, I'm glad you're here," Esme said to Bella and I. "We need an umpire."

"She thinks we cheat," Ray said.

"I know you cheat," Esme said with a smile. "Call em as you see em, guys."

"Ok," Bella said.

Emmett, Alice, Edward, and Ray were all in the field while Jasper, Carlisle, Rosalie, and Esme were batting.

I heard thunder and saw Alice smirk.

"It's time," I heard her say, faintly.

Rosalie is up to bat first. Alice gracefully throws the ball really hard and Rosalie hits it with a hell of a lot of power.

"Ok, now I see why you need the thunder," I said.

Esme smiled.

The ball went into the woods and Edward went after it.

"That's got to be a home run, right?" Bella asked.
