"So are you excited for baseball tomorrow?" Alice asked as they drove away from Kate's house.
Silas nodded.
"Yeah."
Alice reached out and grabbed his arm.
"We are going to be on the same team."
"So…"
"How are your baseball skills?" Alice asked worriedly.
She didn't want to lose again… now that she had Silas she hoped they could win.
Silas smiled confidently.
"They should be pretty good."
Alice raised an eyebrow.
"Should be pretty good? Are they good or not?" Alice asked.
She wanted a definite answer.
Silas reached over and patted her head.
"Don't worry, they are enough."
Alice pouted.
"I hope so."
Silas stopped patting her head and reached out to grab her hand instead.
"Why are you so obsessed with winning anyway?"
Alice stroked his hand with her thumb.
"I never win." She said in a pitiful tone.
Silas was quiet for a second.
"Haha, don't worry, I never lose."
Alice rolled her eyes.
"I certainly hope you don't."
After she said that she turned up the music volume.
Alice was a little embarrassed, after all who can be proud to say they never win?
A few minutes later they arrived at the Cullen house.
The others had already arrived.
Silas stepped out and walked to the passenger side to open the door for Alice.
He reached out his hand and grabbed hers, helping her out of the car.
Just then the front door opened and Emmett stood there.
"Silas! Hurry, I'm in a match against Rosalie." After he said that he ran inside.
Silas rolled his eyes.
You didn't have to open you know, I could've just walked in.
Alice laughed.
"Hurry!" She said and pulled him inside.
They took off their shoes at the door and started to walk upstairs.
When they walked past the kitchen Silas saw Esme waving at him.
"It's dinner in about one hour."
Silas nodded and let himself be dragged towards Emmett's man cave by Alice.
When they arrived Silas saw Emmett in a fierce battle against Rosalie on Tekken.
"Haha, you don't think a few hours of practice will really make you better than me?" Emmett said as he killed Rosalie.
Rosalie stood up in disbelief.
"How!? I could barely even see your health bar!"
Emmett just laughed, which further infuriated Rosalie.
"Redo, will go again."
Silas and Alice sat down at the end of the couch, they were merely observers to this great battle.
And what a circus it was.
Had they been charging money to get into this man cave to get to watch it, he would certainly pay.
Watching Emmett laugh at Rosalie as she once again lost, and then her smacking him in the head was hilarious.
"Hmph, it won't be long before I'm better than you." Rosalie stated as she sat down again after calming down.
She then turned to Silas and a malicious smile spread across her face.
"Heyyy, Silas, why don't you play in my stead?" Her drawn out tone sent chills down Emmett's spine.
She's really foul, she can't beat him so she needs to recruit his good brother to beat him.
But hearing Rosalie's obvious set up, Silas just smiled.
"Sure, I'll play a few rounds."
He reached out and grabbed the controller from Rosalie's hand.
Then he looked at Emmett.
"Let's start a match."
Emmett sighed and nodded.
A few clicks later and they were in the game.
Another few clicks later and Emmett was dead.
"This isn't even enjoyable." Emmett said as he started another match.
Meanwhile Rosalie was sitting there with a satisfied expression on her face.
Clearly she was enjoying the revenge she got by using a "borrowed knife".
Just then the door opened and Jasper walked in with Ella.
"Hello guys." Ella said as she walked over and stood behind Rosalie.
"Who's winning?"
Rosalie let out a laugh.
"Silas is winning."
Ella looked at Silas.
"Ohh, so Silas is good at video games?"
Rosalie nodded.
Jasper stood beside Ella and looked at the screen.
Then he looked at Emmett.
"Are you even trying?"
Emmett glanced at him.
"Yes! But I've kinda lost my will to fight…"
Jasper nodded.
"I can see that."
He then ignored Emmett's angry gaze and looked at Silas.
"Silas, Esme is done with the food."
Hearing that Silas quickly finished off Emmett.
"Let's go then." He put the controller down on the table and then grabbed Alice's hand and walked out.
Emmett and Rosalie sat there in silence for a few seconds then Emmett picked up the controller Silas put down and waved it to Rosalie.
"Wanna go again?"
Rosalie stood up.
"No, I'm going with them."
Now Emmett was sitting all alone, then he muttered to himself.
"Maybe I should follow them?"
A few seconds later he put down the controllers and walked out.
He didn't want to be seen like Edward the emo.
Emmett wasn't some emo who couldn't lose and would suddenly get anti-social.
No, he was a social butterfly.
Silas walked into the dining room and sat down where all the food was gathered.
It was his usual spot at the end of the table, here he could overlook the entire table like a big shot.
When he sat down a plate was sat down in front of him, along with some cutlery.
A fork, knife, and spoon.
Now he was ready to face off against all the food.
After Esme introduced all the dishes he started to scoop it up and putting it on his plate.
Eating Esme's food was always a highlight.
As Silas ate the other Cullens participated in calm conversation.
Sometimes they would ask Silas questions which would force him to stop eating.
After nearly an hour of this, Silas had finally finished all the food.
"Ahh~" Silas groaned as he leaned back in his chair.
"That was good."
Alice playfully touched his stomach.
"It's truly bizarre where it all goes…"
Silas smiled and grabbed her hand.
"I'm a veritable black hole."
Alice smiled.
"Then how about some more food?"
Silas let go of her hand.
"I'm not actually a black hole…"
Alice put on a confused expression, she was playing dumb.
"Then where does it all go?"
Silas took a sip of his water and shook his head.
"I have no idea."
...
Enjoy. Mwah~
