Emmett at Wal-Mart

I knew this was a bad idea, I thought to Jasper as we walked through the door at Wal-Mart. Do you think we should leave before he does something we all regret? I mean, it is Emmett…

He laughed. Let’s just give it a try. Maybe it’ll be funny.

It’s your funeral if he does something and Rose finds out.

I grabbed a shopping cart and started walking towards the furniture section. Esme needed us to find some furniture for the new house, but couldn’t make it to the store. That’s why I at least was here. I could show her pieces she might like through my mind and she could tell me what she thought. Don’t really know why the other two came with me though…

“Oh, Edward! Look!” Emmett cried, jumping onto one of the display beds. He instantly fell through it, breaking the bed when he landed on it. Just like the bed, his smiled crumbled. “I’ll pay for it…”

I sighed, but immediately felt a wave of patience wash over me. Flashing a quick smile at Jasper, I went over to deal with our oaf of a brother. “Emmett, it’s fine. We need another bed anyhow.” Flagging down a worker I told them to put it on hold for us. 

As he walked away, Emmett called after him. “Code 3 in Automotive. I’d hurry if I were you.” Strangely enough, the kid ran the rest of the way there as Emmett and Jasper laughed.

Rolling my eyes, I continued looking around. I’m going to have to keep an eye on you both, aren’t I? I thought to Jasper.

Sorry, brother. Emmett’s emotions are extremely strong right now and I can’t fight them off anymore, he smiled apologetically.

Looking up from a pair of dressers, I saw that neither were in the furniture section anymore. “Oh, for goodness’ sake!” I cried, looking all around for either of them.

Many minutes later, I found them in the outdoor area. In the carpet in front of them was a ‘Caution – Wet Floor’ sign that I was sure they had moved themselves. Both were setting up a tent. As I neared, I heard Emmett say “If you bring a pillow, you can join out slumber party” to some poor little girl who was lost. I pointed her in the direction of her dad and went over to my brothers.
