This chapter is dedicated to littlealicecullen1901 who reminded me there are still people out there who like Twilight and still read these stories. I apologize for leaving you hanging for so long, but the Twi-hard obsession got to me and I decided to take a break from it.
Bella POV
Rosalie finished tying the blindfold on Emmett and sat next to me on the ground. He and Jasper were wearing white tank tops and gym shorts. Edward was dumping the glue into the kiddy pool and Alice was coating the ground in multi colored feathers. Jasper was watching them set up, grinning wildly. "Has anyone ever told you you're a genius?"
I sighed happily. "Yes, but it's nice to hear again."
"Ready!" Alice chirped, skipping over to us and setting the camera up. Edward nodded and followed her. Jasper walked over to stand right in front of Emmett and tied on his own blindfold.
"Begin!"
It tool all of nine seconds for Jasper to shove Emmett in the glue pool. He rose and groaned. Luckily for him, no glue got in his mouth. "Glue? Really?"
Jasper lunged, shoving him out and onto the bed of feathers. The rest of the fight passed in a blur, but Jasper finally flipped Emmett over his shoulder and pinned him. Even with a blindfold, Jasper was a brilliant fighter. Emmett was good too, but I wasn't about to tell him that.
"One…two…three!" Alice counted. "Jasper wins!"
Jasper and Emmett ripped the blindfolds off and Emmett got a look at what happened. "I look like a giant chicken!" he gawked.
He was covered in glue, and that glue caused the feathers to stick all over him. I saw pink, blue, green, silver, and even some sparkly feathers running down his arms, legs, and on his face. The glue didn't completely cover him, so it was funny seeing a few feathers stuck here and there on his arms and legs. There was even some in his hair! His face, luckily, got enough glue and feathers to give him a nice multi colored beard.
Jasper had some glue and feathers on him, too, but not to the extent Emmett did.
Rose, Alice and I were dying. And that was only the beginning.
"Okay, Jasper, you can go clean up now." Alice pulled her husband upstairs to shower. I had a feeling we wouldn't be seeing them for a while, but then again, they weren't Rose and Emmett.
Emmett moved to go inside, but Edward blocked him, smirking. "No, no shower for you. And you can't go inside until the glue dries."
Emmett groaned, saw his face in the window, and screamed.
Jasper and Alice came down, both wearing different outfits. Alice was carrying an armful of purple fabric with green polka-dots. Jasper was carrying the tail, feet, and head.
Emmett was allowed inside to change into the costume, but Rose warned through the door him not to pick off the feathers or there would be consequences.
"You mean more than there is already?" he sulked as he came out of the bathroom. I smirked.
"Let's go."
Alice POV
Rose drove Emmett down to the playground on the outskirts of town on Bella's motorcycle, milking his humiliation for all it was worth. The rest of us followed in Esme's car. I was still in possession of the camera.
The playground wasn't very busy (it was a Tuesday afternoon, after all) but there were a few children and several teens playing basketball. I grinned madly when I recognized Seth. Bella saw him too. "Seth!"
Jasper grimaced as the stench of wet dog hit us. Edward smiled, since he genuinely liked Seth. I did, too, but I wouldn't want to spend all day with him. "Hey, guys," Seth said as he got closer to the car. He stayed a few feet away, though, miracle of miracles. "Why is Emmett dressed up in a Barney costume?"
We got out of the car to get a better view of what was going on. "Wait for it," Bella told him.
Emmett trudged over to the middle of the playground. "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family." He moved over to Rose and hugged her. "With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you." He blew a kiss toward the kids on the swings, who stared at him, mouths open. "Won't you say you love me too?"
There was dead silence. Seth broke it by bursting into laughter.
"That was seriously…the best thing…I have seen in ages," he howled. The other teens started laughing, too, but the little kids still looked scared out of their minds. Rose walked over to them and knelt beside one little girl.
"He won't hurt you. He's actually a big softie." The girl looked at her fearfully.
"Emmett, take the mask off and apologize to the kids!" I laughed.
"He whipped the mask off and scowled, causing Seth to clutch his stomach. Oh, yeah, he hadn't seen the feathers.
"It's your fault! That was a stupid dare, Bella!"
The girl next to Rose giggled. She whispered in Rose's ear, but I could hear her perfectly. "You know the chicken man?"
Rose laughed softly. "Of course I know the chicken man."
The other kids heard her comment and started shouting, "Chicken Man! Rainbow Chicken!"
Emmett turned around and stuck his tongue out at them, sending the girl into peals of laughter.
"All right, everyone, wave goodbye to the Dino-Chicken!" Edward shouted.
Emmett leveled a death glare in his direction. "I will rip you apart slowly."
Bella grinned. "No you won't." She turned to Seth. "Oh, that reminds me, I'll be stopping by tonight with all of Emmett's games and gaming systems. You can only keep them until Saturday night, but I'm sure you and the rest of the pack will have fun trying to beat Emmett's high scores."
Seth blinked. "Seriously?"
"Yes. I'll spray them down, of course, but try not to break anything."
Seth whooped and swung Bella around in a hug. Yuck. The stench was going to take forever to come out of the car.
Emmett was sulking when Seth put Bella back on the ground. "Try not to break anything."
"So, what did Emmett do to get punished?"
"What makes you think I did anything?" Emmett protested.
Edward glared at him. "You ripped the door off my car."
"You got me arrested," Bella added.
"And we decided to play Truth and Dare," Jasper chimed in.
"You know how messy our games get," I finished.
Seth nodded. "Okay. Got it. Never play a game with the Cullens if I want my sanity to remain intact."
We said goodbye to Seth and told Rose and Emmett we'd meet them at the house.
"Where are we going?" Bella asked.
"I know where we can get an Emmett sized Tinkerbell costume."
I hope you enjoyed it, and that it lived up to your expectations.
