The Letter-A Alice/Bella Oneshot
Dearest Bella.
No that sounds too formal, Alice Cullen thought as she pressed her pencil against the sheet of paper, Bella would probably want it more casual.
Hello Bella, its been a long time since we talked. You and I.
"Okay Emmett how does this sound?," Alice asked as she wrote something on another sheet of paper, "Hello Bella, its been a long time since we talked. Forks hasn't really been the same without you. I mean Emmett's still being Emmett-"
"Okay, its great now but what do you mean by Emmett still being Emmett? Maybe she's forgotten how I am. Alice, adjectives are your friend. Use them." Alice was now wondering why Emmett seemed to full of himself today.
"Well what do you want me to put 'Emmett is being his usual stupid, annoying self.' Geez by the time you stop giving me your 'critiques' the whole town of Forks is going to be treeless. You want that?," Alice asked, tiffed at Emmett.
"Forget this. When Bella sends you a insulting letter back do not say I didn't try to help you any.," Emmett stomped away pretty much growling at Edward as he drew closer to Alice.
"What's his problem? Rose bit him during sex again.," Edward laughed. He, much like his brother, began to read the letter. "Oh so you're having trouble writing a letter to Bella because you have so much to say to her. You just don't know how to tell her." Alice loved many of Edward's 'quirks' but his mind reading was one she could gladly do without.
"Edward, is it that obvious?," she asked sighing now grabbing another sheet of paper.
"Sure. Why don't you just write what you think? Maybe Bella will be inspired by them and end up writing some cheesy teen novel that will be loved by millions.," he laughed.
"Haha, Eddie. How does this sound? Hello Bella, its been a long time since we talked. Forks hasn't really been the same without you. I mean Emmett is still being Emmett, whatever that may be. But I miss you. I still don't know why you had to accept that job in Phoenix. I mean I respect the idea that its where you're from and all but seriously? Why Phoenix? The sunlight there is insane but I guess with you being a human it would be nice. Personally I think the rain here in Forks is perfect in an odd kind of way. I wish you were here beside me, with me. Just the-," Alice stopped when she noticed a sense of displeasure in Edwards face, "What? I didn't describe you?"
"No. I mean if you like emphasizing things you can keep this line right here," he said pointing to the most recent line, "but-in my opinion-it makes you look obsessed. Keep the 'I wish you were beside me.' part in but take out the 'with me'. Just my opinion though."
"Okay how does this sound? Hello Bella. Its been a long time since we talked. Forks hasn't really been the same without you. I mean Emmett is still being Emmett, whatever that may be. But I miss you. I still don't know why you had to accept that job in Phoenix. I mean I respect the idea that its where you're from and all but seriously? Why Phoenix? The sunlight there is insane but I guess with you being a human it would be nice. Personally I think the rain here in Forks is perfect in an odd kind of way. I wish you were here beside me. Just the thought of you makes me depressed. I love you. We've got to talk sometime. Okay was it good? Bad? Otherwise?" Edward just nodded this time. Not saying a word or anything.
"Your choice of words are lovely but I think you might have pushed her coming back here too much. Be subtle. Drops hints. I mean, say we aren't related. Would you be more attracted to me if I just randomly said during a conversation 'Oh yeah the weather is nice...want to go to my place so we can have insane sex?' or would you rather have me say 'Oh yeah the weather is nice...but hey its getting dark out. You want to come over to my place?'. Simple as that. With one I'd sound like I really wanted you. With the other I would be hinting that I might really want you but I'm kind enough and smart enough to not come out and say...well you know.," Edward explained.
"Forget it. I know Bella's grammar expectations are about that of a sock monkey but still there's part of me that just has to have everything right in this damn letter. Say hi to Jasper for me.," Alice said storming out the door.
Later that night...
Hello Bella,
Edward and Emmett have been trying to help me write this all day and not even Edward's mind reading powers and Emmett's...Emmettness can help me write down the words I so want to say to you. Its insane how much I miss someone of the same gender that isn't family or a close friend. Not saying that you and I weren't-aren't close. Man, I could never say we weren't close after some of our experiences. But hey enough about me. How is that job in Phoenix? I know that deep down inside you always wanted to go back there.
The funny thing is that I've been able see into the future for years and I've seen many things that I've never really wanted to see. But now, when there is something I really want to see, I can't see it. I want to see you and I together again. Romantically together again. Not like two close friends hiding in the closet together. I don't know why I say that though. Edward and Emmett know. I seriously have no clue how Emmett knows. With Edward...its pretty obvious.
I'm sorry if I sound like I'm obsessed with you. I should've listened to Edward when he told me that I come across as too obsessive. But what can I say? I am so attracted to you and I know that when we were together, you felt the same way. Edward says its hard to read your mind but I don't even have the gift and I find your mind very easy to read. Your eyes speak for everything.
Well I don't mean to hog your time I just need to talk to you.
Love Alice
AN: So how was my first Twilight fanfic? The hyphen between weren't and aren't was meant to resemble of those 'slash through word' thingys. Sorry for the OOCness, if there was any. Review if you like, review if you hate but do have some respect towards me.
