Finding Myself

16. GAME PT2

" Let's go "
Pixie reached for Emmett's large hand and they started towards the oversized field, I tilted my head, watching Pixie and Emmett run. Pixie ran like a gazelle, fast but graceful while Emmett ran like a lion, fierce, fast but with a few hint of pride as if he was gloating to someone... preferably his wife. It's only then that I realized what he was wearing, A dark, navy blue Nike jumpsuit with black Nike joggers accomadated with a black cap. I mentally rolled my eyes at the sight... What the hell is with navy blue in this family. I was disrupted from my admiration, as a husky, smooth voice spoke.
" Are you ready for some ball? "
Edward looked at me, his golden eyes eager and bright as I nodded enthusiastically.
" Hell yeah! "
He snickered, mussing my already messy ponytail as he smiled, bending to softly brush his lips against mine.
" Now, please behave yourself "
Before I could reply to his one-third  hormonal male persona, he bounded off the other two. Faster and much more graceful, his run was more aggressive... aggressive but powerful. A cheetah rather than a gazelle and he quickly overtook them. The grace, power and aggressive took my breath away.

Involuntarily might I add.
" Shall we go dear? "
Esme's soft, melodic voice questioned and as I realized I was staring openmouthed after him. I quickly composed my expression and nodded as Rosalie gave me a pointed look before scoffing.
" She means if your done ogling Edward? "
I frowned at her, rolling my eyes as she laughed and walked away from us towards where Carlisle and Jasper were, marking the pitch, I looked at her outfit. A dark blue cut from the sleeves t-shirt with a long-sleeved grey Henley vest and a pair of grey gloves, stripped with black on the edges accomadated with black and white socks, black with white stripped tennis takkies and a grey cap. Now I definitely couldn't control my eyes as they rolled dramatically at what she was wearing... Fancy, Expensive but still to much navy.

Esme kept a few feet between us as we walked, and I wondered whether or not if she still disliked me or was trying not to fight me... As if.
" Don't you play with them? "
I looked at her as she shook her head, smiling.
" I like to referee " She explained as if there was a hidden meaning to what she said. I was quiet until something sank in. I laughed disbelievingly.
" They like to cheat then? "
She nodded, laughing with me.
" Definitely, you should hear the arguments they get into. You'd think they were raised by a pack of wolves "
My laugh intensified as I shook my head, not as offended as I imagined my mother saying the same at the boys and I. My happy mood dissipated quickly as I thought about my family and the times we played baseball but I quickly composed my expression and gave her a fake smile.

Esme stopped as we had already reached the edge of the field. I looked around, noticing that everybody had formed teams except for Esme of course and watched as Carlisle stood between the first and second bases where Alice held the ball, positioned her petite on the pitcher's mound. Looking around again, I saw Jasper swing a aluminum bat, watching it whistle almost untraceably through the air. I waited for him to approach home plate but then realized that he was already there but farther away from the mound than I thought possible. I frowned, That's definetely not how you play baseball.
Emmett stood several feet behind me, catching for the other team, with no gloves on... All of them.

" Batter up " Esme shouted as Alice stood straight, a smirk appearing on her face as she stood deceptively motionless. Her style seemed to stealth rather than intimidation as she held the ball in both hands at her waist and then... like the strike of a black mamba, her right hand flicked out and the ball ball smacked right into Emmett's hand. Jasper gave her a pointed look.
" I wasn't ready yet babe "
Alice laughed sweetly at him before shaking her head like one of those Dragon Ball Z Kai fan girl's. I cringed... I hated those girl's, alot.
" It's fine babe... you'll do great "
Rosalie gave out a scoff as Emmett laughed boomingly.
" You can see into the future... of course he will do great "
