What Do You Know About Rockets? [Emmett]

[Rosalie Hale]

Let's build a rocket to the moon
Just you and I
We could start a whole new world up there
Leave our past behind

Rosalie was waiting. Some people might call it hiding as she stayed tucked in her shared bedroom with the lights turned off and in utter silence. It wasn't enough to fool any vampire who actually wanted to see her, but it was enough to get the message across; Rosalie wasn't in the mood to entertain, not that she ever was. No, the blond vampire only wanted, or rather needed, to speak with one person, and that certain creature had alluded her (Although Rosalie constantly reminded herself that the odds of Emmett actually avoiding her were low, and that it had been her that hadn't returned to their bedroom for the past three nights and had chosen instead to spend them in the garage.) for what seemed like weeks. In reality, Rosalie was sure it had only been a couple of days, if even that, but it didn't matter to Rosalie's confounded mind.

In sharp contrast to the eerily quiet bedroom, Rosalie's mind was attacked by waves of thoughts. Too much was happening at once for the beautiful vampire to comprehend properly. She wasn't completely sure who she was supposed to be mad at anymore or rather who to be more angry with. There was Edward with his annoying human thing. James, Victoria and Laurent who were most defiantly plotting something; that much had been evident from when Rosalie had accidentally crossed James path while both had been hunting. Although his threats on her family's and her own life hadn't made much of an impression on Rosalie, she was sure that James wasn't just sitting idle. On top of which -and probably the even that stabbed the deepest, as childish as it seemed- Irina had proclaimed to be in love with a human. It was bad enough that Edward was blindly infatuated with Isabella Swan, but Irina falling for a human wasn't comprehensible. To Rosalie, it was as absurd as Emmett falling in love with a human.

The thought brought her back to the present and made her aware of just how dark their bedroom was. The sun had long ago disappeared from the sky which meant that, if luck was on Rosalie's side, her husband would be returning home soon. Emmett always had a soothing effect on the beautiful vampire. Not to mention it was always nice to be simply around him for the fact that he could make almost anything into a joking matter.

She just needed a release.

It’s an emptied handed promise
From my heart to my conscious
That says one day I will make this count
The best that I know how

Emmett came bounding in the front door of the house and right up the stairs while yelling, "Someone get the door I'm busy!" He then burst in the door of his room only to do a double take on how dark it was. It's not like he couldn't see it was just that he didn't expect the room to be so dark, seeing as he left the lights on almost all the time unless Rosalie was in the room.

Sweeping in and picking up his beautiful wife, Emmett jumped onto the bed sliding it clear across the room. "Your move Rose." Emmett let out one of his loud booming laughs and kisses the blond vampire passionately.

Rosalie's golden eyes remained fixed on the door as she heard Emmett's shouting proclamation as he darted through the front door. She couldn't help but laugh slightly at this to herself, although an odd anxiety was coming over her currently. Without even meaning to, she was counting the moments before Emmett would doubtlessly come crashing into their own room. That was, at least, if her husband came straight to their shared bedroom. Suddenly, the whole thing felt extremely foolish. The thought that she could be sitting alone with only her confused thoughts for company in the dark room for any length of time dawned on Rosalie with altered her nerve slightly. The simple fact of the matter was that the blond vampire didn't want to be around the rest of her family, even if the odds of crossing paths with Edward were low since the pair had been avoiding one another for quite a while. Her golden eyes fell from the door frame only a few moments later. She was preparing herself for the wait.

Rosalie's profile lit with delight as Emmett burst into the bedroom in a similar fashion to how he'd entered the house. Before she knew it, her husband was underneath her on their bed with his lips pressed against her own. The moving of the furniture hardly effected her anymore, although it was always worth a good laugh in the end. Eagerly, the blond vampire returned the loving gesture before pulling back to look at the vampire beneath her.

"I've missed you," commented Rosalie with traces of awkwardness. It was a somewhat foolish statement although the blond vampire knew it to be true. After all, at almost any hour of the day she could have sought Emmett out, yet she left it to chance. She leaned in once more to kiss him lightly. Her head fell to his chest only moments later with her golden eyes trained on her husband's face. "You've been hiding from me," accused Rosalie, although it was obvious she was teasing: not something she did very often. Or at least not very often in common company.
