Bella's POV

"Edward! Edward? Where are you going?" I shouted, glaring into the woods, spying his white shirt in between the trees. I heard his invisible laughter very faintly, and his soft footsteps racing away.

"Bella, don't worry about it. He's just teasing you. He'll come back soon, with Jacob in tow," Alice chirped, suddenly appearing beside me. She was extremely happy today because we were going shopping later.

"Why is he bringing Jacob? I thought we were bringing Renesmee with us," I said, turning to walk back into the house. Carlisle, Emmett, Rosalie, and Esme were away on a hunting trip in California, so the house seemed quieter that usual.

" Yeah, I wanted to go with!" Renesmee whined, walking up to us. She was the size of a 7 year old now, and her bronze ringlets were pulled back into a long ponytail that passed her hips.

" Jacob wants to take you over to La Push so you can go swimming. Haven't you been saying you've wanted to go swimming?" Alice trilled, sitting down onto the white couch and picking up a magazine. Her short white dress blended into the couch, making her almost invisible if it weren't for her short black hair.

" Ok, fine. I have wanted to go swimming. I really wish I could go shopping though," Renesmee giggled, "They're almost here. I can hear Jacob trying to keep up with Daddy." She started giggling again.

"Who would have thought that you would chose swimming over shopping? You're almost as bad as Alice when it comes to that!" I said, leaning down to kiss Renesmee's head. Alice stuck her tongue out at me, sending me into a fit of giggles.

"What's so funny?" Jacob asked, walking in just inches behind Edward, who grinned at me with a gleam of laughter in his eyes. Jacob's eyes landed on Renesmee, and his huge grin got wider.

"Hi sweetie. Are you ready to go swimming?" He said, settling onto the couch the same time Renesmee leaped onto it.

"Yeah. Can we play with the rest of the pack after that?" Renesmee said, staring up at him with hopeful eyes. She was thinking about different games they could play. I could tell by the amused gleam in Edward's eyes.

" I think Claire has been wanting to see her "sister" lately, and Quil is with her today. Emily and Sam would love it if you came over, too," Jacob muttered, swinging Renesmee onto his back and striding towards the door.

I stood and walked over to them," Love you, honey! I'll see you tonight," I said, grabbing the keys to my Ferrari of the hook and handing them to Jacob. "It'll be quicker and more fun for her if you take my car."

Jacob's face lit up as he ran to the garage, Renesmee giggling out of control on his back.

"Come on, love. Let's go," Edward said, coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist." I was hoping we could convince Alice to come home earlier if we left now." Edward's golden eyes stared into mine. My eyes had turned gold last year, three months before my first vampire birthday. I only had two weeks until I was officially two years old.

"Ok. Alice! Come on. We can take your Porsche if you want," I murmured, walking out the door behind Edward. I was oddly excited for this shopping trip. Weird, I thought, I've never been excited about shopping with Alice. Alice flew down the stairs, Jasper in tow. Jasper picked up on my mood right away and raised and eyebrow quizzically.

"Excited today, huh Bella?" he said, glancing at Alice. Alice gasped in shock, probably amazed that I was excited about shopping for once.

" Alice! That's not very nice. She thinks we're going shopping!" Edward gasped, glaring at her." Why are you doing that?" He squeezed my hand in reassurance, making me understand that what she had planned was not as bad as he made it to be.

" What do you have planned for me, Alice?" I questioned, cocking my head to the side while I waited for her answer. She laughed, the small sound echoing in the garage.

"You'll see!" She giggled, turning to get in to her Porsche. I hissed, but willingly got into the backseat with Edward.

Edward's POV

Alice was being evil. She didn't have a simple shopping trip planned for us. Oh no. She was taking Bella to the SPA. Bella was going to kill her when she found out.

Edward, please don't tell her. Alice thought, snapping at me in her little voice. This is for her own good. I don't think she's ever had a mani/pedi in her life. I could see little snippets of her visions in her head. Bella getting mad, but then seeming happy. Huh. Maybe turning into a vampire had made her a little bit more like Alice after all. Scary.

"Edward, can you please tell me? What did she think?" Bella moaned, her lower lip pouting out." I don't like being in the dark." I saw Alice's eyes pop, and then shoot a glare of fury at me. Edward! She warned me, a harsh edge of fury to her thoughts.

"I'm sorry, love. Alice has truly evil things planned for me if I tell you. One of them includes possibly killing me," I said, rubbing Bella's arm, absentmindedly. That shut her up right away on that topic.

"OK, then. Alice, will we be doing any shopping at all today? Because Renesmee needs a birthday present, and I probably won't have the time to get her one in the next two weeks, considering that I'm going to visit Renee next weekend," Bella turned away from me and looked expectantly at Alice.

" Well, I suppose. If you really want to," Alice's eyes lit up at the thought of shopping and the spa all in one day. She giggled thoughtlessly in her head.

I rolled my eyes and sighed. You would have thought that Alice would have changed in the 58 years I had know her but…nope. Bella snapped her head around to look at me. I just shrugged, and she hissed in frustration. I hate keeping thing from her, but I could see the plans in Alice's head. They were truly terrifying. So much effort just to lie to Bella for ten more minutes.

Suddenly Jasper growled. That was weird, he never growled unless threatened with immediate danger. I can't believe it. Edward! Some girl is being attacked around the corner. I feel her terror, and her attackers pleasure. Jasper was too mad to speak out loud.

"Alice some poor girl is being attacked around the corner. Jasper feels them. Quick, or else she'll be killed!" I yelled, speaking for Jasper. Alice gasped. She pressed her foot to the floor, sending the car around the corner in two seconds. I sought out theirs minds and instantly recognized them. These were the same killers who had attacked Bella four years ago, on this same street.
