Chapter Seven: Take Me Out to the Ball Game
                          
*Bella is now three years old bit in appearance and mind she is about thirteen.*
                          
*Emmett's pov*
                          
It had been just under three years since we had adopted Bella. Oh, boy had that been a trip. She had constantly been changing. She was so smart and even though she was only three she considered herself thirteen.
                          
At this time I had to say that my favorite past time was to pull pranks on her. There was so many good ones. And I was so happy she didn't take anything too seriously. That is except for Edward. Over the three years she's grow quite the bond with him. Like there are times I have seen her with Edward and he's done thing for or with her that wasn't part of his attitude before her. He laughs, I've seen him get her to dance, he smiles, and he'll carry her around. She has also taken to having him by her side while she sleeps.
                          
Even though she loved her time with Edward she still made it important to spend time with everyone. Like she would let Alice drag her out on shopping sprees or she would sit on Carlisle's lap and listen to him read or talk. And when it came to the Danalis she'd jump at any chance to see them.
                          
Today the Danalis were coming in from Alaska. We hadn't told Bella cause we wanted to surprise her with her first game on vampire baseball. The Danalis said that they would meet us in our favorite meadow I was three times bigger a normal baseball field so it worked well for our family. As I was thinking about the game I heard a ruckus from up stairs.
                          
"Edward! Stop! No, get out! Now!" Bella screamed from the fourth floor. Man, that girl had a set of lungs.
                          
"Bella it's nothing to be ashamed of. All girls get their period. I was just trying to help." Edward said. I couldn't help but laugh.
                          
"Alice! Rosalie! Get Edward out of here." Bella yelled. I could hear her voice shake like she was close to tears.
                          
I ran upstairs and kicked Edward out of the room. After closing the door I took Bella into my arms and hugged her.
                          
"What's up, baby girl?" I asked, rubbing her back.
                          
"I-I don't know." She cried into my shoulder.
                          
"What did Edward do?" I asked.
                          
"He asked if I needed anything cause I'm in my period and I didn't want to talk about it," she told me.
                          
"Why didn't you want to talk about it?"
                          
"Because."
                          
"Because why?"
                          
"Because I like Edward as more then just a brother and I got nervous about him trying to take care of me!"
                          
Whoa! We all had a feeling that this was coming, even Edward. But she I looked at her I still just saw that baby that came home with Carlisle.
                          
"Okay," I breathed out, "when did these feelings start?"
                          
"About a few months ago when just Edward and I were home and you and the rest of the family were out hunting." Bella said.
                          
"Have you kissed him or has he kissed you?"
                          
"No! No, we haven't done anything like that."
                          
"Has there been anything said?"
                          
"I-I want to but every time I try I can't do it."
                          
"Oh, Isa, you want to know a secret?"
                          
"Yeah."
                          
"You have a soft spot in Edward's heart that I have never seen. He thinks of you beyond anything."
                          
"R-really?"
                          
"My gosh, yes. He loves you very, very much." I said smiling, thinking of a haunting trip that the boys went on and remembered how crazy Edward acted because he wasn't around Bella.
                          
"Thank you, Emmett. You're the best big brother. What are we doing today?"
                          
"Well, after you finish classes with Jasper we are all going to do something fun."
                          
"What fun thing are we doing?"
                          
"You'll have to wait and see."

Hours after our little talk Bella is done with school for the day and we are all getting ready to head out. Edward, Bella, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice, and I all got into my giant jeep. While Carlisle and Esme got into a different car.
                          
It didn't take long for us to get there at the pace we were going.
                          
Before I even stopped the car Bella got got out of the car and ran strait into Tanya's arms. Jumping, she circled her legs around Tanya's waist and squealed.
                          
"What are you all doing out here," Bella said, now hugging the rest of the Danalis, including Garrett and Laurent.
                          
"We came for a surprise visit. Oh my, Bella you have grown so much. It looks like you can protect yourself from those big brothers of yours now." Carmen said laughing. If only she knew.
                          
I once mad Bella so mad she used her power to teleport me to Spain. I had learned my lesson very well that day.
                          
"Come on, people! Lets do what we came here for and play some ball." I called.
                          
We decided to make it Danali's vs Cullen's. I took a coin and flipped it yelling for Eleazer and Carlisle to call it. Carlisle having called heads got us to go first. And the game began.
                          
Over my shoulder I saw Edward talking to Bella. I had no idea what this was about but I could see that Bella wasn't too happy with him.
                          
'Edward, you better stop whatever you're doing to her. Bella doesn't look happy. Do you remember the time I pissed her off?' I said through my mind. But he acted as if he didn't hear me.
                          
Then I saw Bella go extremely red and within seconds she disappeared.
                          
"Edward, what did you do?!" Esme cried.
                          
"I-I don't know." he said.
                          
"How can you not know? you were just talking to her!" Rosalie yelled at him.
                          
"You ass you know her emotions are all over the place, Edward." Alice call as all the female Danali's glared at him.
                          
"You know how dangerous this is? She could be anywhere." Jasper said, picking up in the feelings going around.
                          
"Let's move. She's wouldn't go too far she loves you all too much." Garrett spoke up.

We moved in groups, splitting the girls from the boys. The girls moving north of the house while the boys moved south. We had been moving into the wolf's land slowly but as soon as Jasper caught Bella's sent we went for it.  Carlisle took the end so that he could call the girls.
                          
Once we had tracked Bella's scent to a old house we stopped and waited for our women.
