Part 17

i knew drama was enfolding and i didn't want to miss a second of it. so i phoned home and said i'd be staying the night with the Cullens. unfortunately, seeing that the Cullens stock minimal human food in their fridge, i have to eat a strange assortment of canned soup, Froot Loops and Doritos for dinner. oh well. small price to pay for being able to be in on all the drama.

the rest of the afternoon and evening was spent by Emmett trying to get Rosalie to forgive him.

first the remorseful approach....
"Rose im really sorry i'll never.."
"save it Emmett."

then the exchange approach....
"what if i bought you a new pair of shoes? Jimmy Choo, promise."
"THOSE WERE LIMITED EDITION AND IF I HEAR YOU SAY SHOES AGAIN I WILL MURDER YOU!"

then the desperate approach...
"Rosie PLEASE! im BEGGING YOU!" *gets down on his knees and latches onto Rosalie's leg.
"get off me Emmett! come within 5 feet of me and i'll personally see to it that your Jeep is destroyed."

and with that Rosalie storms upstairs and Emmett is left whimpering in the same spot. this pitiful display of remorse moves most of the humans and vampires present. Alice evens offers (generously) to go shopping with him for new Manolos with her box of credit cards. still, nothing can cheer up Emmett. in the end Jasper has to play Xbox games with him to avoid a flood of tears (if vampires could cry!).

left to my own devices, i decide to practise my scales on Edward's piano. E flat minor. but my scales are so bad Edward eventually asks me who im trying to kill. then i admit defeat. i wander up to Jasper's room to watch the video games but complain that im dying of boredom so often that he chucks a book ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire") at me and tells me to pipe down.

despite the desire to not miss one second of the drama, by 10.15pm i start feeling drowsy. as Bella takes Esme's queen-size bed, i have to sleep on the couch in Emmett's room (its the biggest one in the house and almost the size of a bed). im so tired after the day's excitement that im asleep before my head hits the pillows.

THE END...don't worry...there'll be more drama and mayhem tomorrow!
