OUR STORY (Applause)
BPOV"Alice. Shouldn't you be helping me man the registers?" I asked as I served one of the people on the long line that was forming behind my booth. Alice and I both got jobs at Wal-Mart to make a little more money for college, which was sucking up our bank accounts.
"Bella have you seen Edward Masen in this mag?! He's gorgeous!" Alice gushed. For the last fifteen minutes she had been poring over a magazine. I knew that Edward Masen was handsome and also one of America's top most eligible bachelors, but I took my job seriously, seeing as Jacob needed our help and also I needed the money.
"Alice, will you stop looking at famous guys and help Bells out?" a deep, husky voice interrupted. I looked up from the cash register to see Jacob, best friend and manager of the store, walking over to us. Alice looked up from the magazine and looked at Jacob, rolled her eyes at him and then went back to examining Edward.
"Bella is managing fine on her own," Alice replied in a monotone.
"It's really fine, Jake," I reassured as the last person in line walked out of the store with their purchases.
"I don't know why I hired her," Jacob mused, scratching the back of his head. Ever since he hired us, basically all Alice did was read magazines from the racks and point someone in the right direction every now and then.
"Because you love her," I laughed.
"And also because you would have a guilty conscience if we had to leave college because we were broke," Alice called, breaking her silent streak.
Jacob and I laughed. Ah Alice Brandon, gotta love her.
"So, Bella… I was, kinda wondering…" Jake started, trailing off. I looked up at him; he seemed to be debating with himself.
"What's up?" I asked, curiosity colouring my tone.
"Well, it's just, um…"
"Excuse me?!" a lady's voice shouted from the register.
"Shoot," I muttered under my breath. "Hold on, Jake," I turned back to the line of people that had formed while I was talking.
"I am so sorry ma'am," I apologised, quickly scanning her things and ushering her out as she muttered under her breath about teenagers. I chuckled as I continued to serve the people.
Once the last one left, I turned back to Jacob, who was manning another register. The last person in his line was leaving also.
"So what did you want, Jake?" I asked.
"Oh, don't worry about it," he replied, fidgeting with the tic-tac rack, not meeting my gaze.
"Are you sure?" I asked, starting to worry slightly.
"Yeah, it was just-"
"BELLA! I GOT US TICKETS TO SEE THE NEW EDWARD MASEN MOVIE! IT STARTS IN AN HOUR AND I WANT TO DRESS YOU UP! JACOB YOU'RE COMING TOO!" Alice screeched running over to us from her 'closed' register.
"Masen…" Jacob groaned. I shot him a look. Edward Masen was a saint! I bet he was helping kids in charities as we spoke…
"What was that, Jacob?" Alice glared at Jake. I was glaring too, but I wasn't as intimidating as Alice.
"I said 'Masen!'" Jacob corrected, fake enthusiasm coating his voice.
"That's more like it!" Alice dragged me out of the store. As we left, we passed the people that were taking the shifts now. Of course Alice got the timing perfect. We waved at Jake, saying that we'd see him soon, and went to Alice's.
MOVIE TIMEIt was time. Time to see Edward on the big screen. Time to turn to mush when Edward uses his charm on the special lady he loved in this movie.
We were sitting in the cinema, waiting for the lights to go down. Alice and I were bouncing in our seats, eagerly awaiting Edward's appearance.
We squealed as the movie began, and received several shushes from the audience. I blushed while Alice shot them all glares.
Edward was so handsome in his military uniform, his bronze hair covered by a dull green hat. I felt my knees grow weak, even though I was sitting down.
Him and a nurse pulled up on the side of the road, both driving different cars. The radio in one of the cars was playing as they both stepped out. She was chasing him after she stayed with another soldier, but seemed to have changed her mind, wanting Edward back.
They walked towards each other, as the song was about to play, finally only standing about two feet apart.
"Hello, Betty," Edward greeted. Even his voice made me swoon.
"Shouldn't you be at the hospital looking after a certain… other soldier?" Edward asked, his tone cautious, emphasizing the 'other'.
"Is there any way you can find it in your heart to forgive me?" she asked, sounding desperate to have him back, on the verge of tears. As if you would choose some one else over him?! Leave her, I wanted to shout out. Take me instead! But I was in a packed cinema, and he wasn't really here.
Of course, Jacob decided to be his usual smart arse self then.
"I wonder if these two get together," he whispered sarcastically to Alice, who was in the middle of Jacob and myself. Alice and I both shushed him harshly, not taking our eyes off the movie.
"I'll forgive you on one condition," Edward bargined. I was so into the movie that I was leaning forward on my chair, waiting for her answer.
"What's that?" she asked. By the look of her, she was willing to do anything.
And then Edward, being his charming self, said the one thing that could make any woman, anywhere swoon.
"Dance with me."
He held out his hand, giving her an adorable crooked smile while pulling her ecstatic being into an embrace and kiss.
The audience, including Alice and myself, awed and sighed at the happy ending.
From the corner of my eye, I saw Jacob gape at the screen in disbelief, then drop his head into his hand, shaking is from side to side.
The happy couple on screen were waltzing around on the road, making it the perfect ending.
The crowd clapped and started to disperse, babbling excitedly about the movie. I wiped away a tear that fell out of the corner of my eye.
"Explain one thing to me," Jacob started. Alice and I were still staring at the screen, lost in our thoughts. "What kind of desperate and… pathetic, emotional cripple… would actually buy that as an ending?"
Alice was still sobbing happily into her tissue while I was staring at the screen, my insides all turned to mush as I recalled Edward's perfect romantic façade.
Jacob looked over to us, realizing that we 'bought' that as the ending, and looked away, stunned.
"Bella," Alice turned to me, her tears settling down. "Do you think that in real life Edward Masen is the man that he seems to be on the screen?" Alice's eyes were bright just thinking about what Edward would be like.
"Oh, absolutely. I mean you just can't fake that kind of thing," I responded. Edward was the perfect man in my eyes.
We stared at the screen for a minute, lost in our thoughts, before Alice broke it.
"What do you think Edward Masen is doing right now?" she asked, her voice serious, yet with an undercurrent of excitement, just thinking of all the things that Edward could be doing.
I thought for a few seconds before answering, my answer sure.
"I bet he's in church."
Alice and I were still staring at the screen. Jacob let out a shocked breath, not believing what he was hearing, and threw his head back so with a smack, it landed on the back of his chair.
EPOVMe and Stacey, no I mean Betty, no Joanna, no Kate, Roxanne… ROSALIE! Were racing down the road, a smoke in my mouth and a bottle of rum in hers. We were weaving in and out of cars, me screaming at the top of my lungs and her squealing in excitement. My tires were screeching as we drove my Ferrari Convertible faster and faster. I leaned in and sucked her neck for a minute, her giggling hysterically. I pulled back so I could see the road. I shouted at the top of my lungs in exhilaration, while she leaned in to kiss my cheek and neck. Life as a movie star was good.
The next morning I woke up with a splitting headache and a woman who was moderately pretty in my bed. I left her with a note, seeing as I had a meeting with my agent at the pool in half an hour, and told my maid to kick her out if she doesn't wake up by twelve.
I saw Jasper and Emmett at a table and made my way over to them. After ordering our food then got down to business.
"You don't make it easy on us, Ed."
"What do you mean?" I asked, not sure what he was talking about, and deciding to ignore the fact that he called me 'Ed'.
"This is the shot the paparazzi got," Jasper said while holding up a newspaper that had Rosalie and I on the front page. It was of last night.
I took the paper to inspect it closer, while Jasper started up again.
"Congratulations, you're actually drinking, driving, smoking, leering and groping at the same time," Jasper stated, disappointed.
"Which, on the one hand, is just about the coolest thing I've ever seen," Emmett stated, impressed by my night's actions.
"Richard," Jasper scolded, as if saying, you're not helping!
"But, on the other hand, it can be argued this might be bad for the image," Emmett was always laid back, relaxed and joking. That's why I hired him. I needed a little fun on my managing team, and since Jasper was the serious one, Emmett was the fun one.
"You play characters who have hearts," Jasper started up again, trying to make me feel guilty about what I did. "This is a person who will have a heart attack."
"I can't believe you guys are blaming my unemployment on this photograph," I spoke up.
"Ok, first of all you, are not unemployed. Dockworkers are unemployed. You are simply between million-dollar paydays."
"As are we," Emmett started again, being his usual idiotic self. "Since we both get a percentage of your payday." Jasper and I just looked at him for a minute before he started to backtrack.
"But this isn't about us," as predicted, Emmett started to backtrack.
I decided to move along. "Ok, what ever happened to that part in the Jimmy Ing movie? I'm perfect for that."
Jasper and Emmett looked at each other for a second before looking away.
"Well, he's just taking a breath," I was shocked. I took leaned forward to seriously understand what Jasper was saying.
"He's what?"
"He's taking a breath," Jasper pronounced it as if I were handicapped or something before carrying on at his normal pace. "He's pausing before deciding, and this," Jasper held up the paper again. "Is only going to make him breath more."
"Well, what do we do?" I asked, seeing as they were basically my advisors, they should know.
"We generate a little positive PR," Emmett said, his mouth full of food. "We need to remind Jimmy Ing that you, Ed, are the boy next door."
"I am the boy next door," though… "If… you live in a very dysfunctional neighbourhood." Obviously. I was the heart ache of every woman of all ages!
