Emmett knew it was wrong— he knew that it was a terrible idea to suddenly fall in love with the sister of his brother’s girlfriend… but he couldn’t help it.

He’d seen his fair share of pretty girls in his life, and most of them had always ended up coming straight to him because of his easy charm and approachable nature— but you? You were far different than any of them. None of those girls he’d had before had this tight of a chokehold on him.

The moment you stepped foot in Forks High with Bella, the scent of your blood had been the only thing on his mind. Every time he thought about you, he thought about your scent, and by god to say it drove him insane would be a complete understatement. He was practically obsessed with you, salivating over the very thought of you alone.

He’d managed to keep a lot of self restraint over the months of knowing you— for his brother’s sake and his relationship with Bella— but he’d be lying if it said it wasn’t anything close to torture. He hated it— hated every time he pushed you away or acted as if your presence wasn’t the one thing that sent him to the brink of insanity.

Anyone could see it— he was a complete sucker for you. Despite his family’s warnings to stay away, Emmett knew that wouldn’t last forever. His instincts would give in eventually, and despite how wrong it would be to betray his brother in that way… he surprisingly couldn’t bring himself to care.

On Bella and Edward’s anniversary, Bella had decided to take you along with her to have dinner with the Cullens. It was an innocent gesture made out of love for her sister, but that didn’t mean that the night ended the same way.

Emmett couldn’t bear it any longer.
