My first fan fic so if you would like to give me some KIND constructive critiscm would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully you will enjoy, thanks for reading :)
If I could think of things as great as Twilight I wouldn't be writing fan fictions would I? I would be writing books. Stephenie Meyer, you are my hero.
Edwards POV
I gazed at her while she was in a deep slumber. How could I do something like this? How could I let Alice talk me into this "day of fun?"
Uh oh, she was waking up, Act normal, act normal! I put on my famous blank face and greeted her,
"Good morning." She smiled and lightly sighed, her head slightly tipped to one side,
"Good morning to you. What are we doing today?" she asked.
What the?! As much as I thought myself cunning and mysterious, Bella continually cut through all of my pretenses like butter… amazing. I was under the impression that she could read my mind but just wasn't letting me in on the secret.
"Hmmm… well I was thinking we could go to my house. I think Alice has something planned…" Oh, did Alice have something planned…
Her eyes held a certain horror so that I could easily tell what she was thinking of… either shopping or makeovers. Not that I could blame her, I've been unfortunately been through both with Alice one- or thousands- of too many times.
"With the entire family of course, and not to worry we will be there for the entire day, if you don't mind," I quickly added to reassure her.
Relief flooded throughout her face and she let out the breath of air that she was holding in. I chuckled lightly to myself.
"So would you like to come over or would you rather do something different?"
She shook her head and quickly got up to go get ready. I headed downstairs to give her a little bit of privacy, well as much as you can get when "sensitive" hearing.
While down here I listened carefully to make sure she wasn't falling or anything and poured her a bowl of cereal and got out the milk. She came into the kitchen quickly and once again I was amazed at her beauty. Her brown eyes consistently got me lost and when she caught me staring a blush emerged on her flawless porcelain skin. It made me smile, or more importantly she made me smile.
"So what are we doing to day anyway?" Bella asked me, anticipated.
"Well Alice told me not to tell you because it's a surprise, but I think you'll like it." I lied, Alice never told me that I couldn't tell but I liked it when she was surprised, even when she didn't.
Bella looked at me nervously, "When you say the "entire family" what does that exactly mean?"
"Well Carlisle has to work and Esme agreed to referee, so it will be you, me, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmet," I answered but immediately regretted, I gave away apart of the surprise. I always talk too much around her.
"Referee?" She asked, no longer curious but completely terrified. I hoped I would be forgiven…eventually.
Bella POV
I walked to the Volvo beside Edward and got in when he opened the door. Knowing that Alice was waiting for me at my destination it felt like I should be running away instead.
My mind raced between the life-scarring hours of truth or dare and the games of hide-and-seek. I couldn't believe that I could actually be going to go play with them again when just last week I was attacked by Emmet, locked in a cage in the basement, and was persuaded to eat 9 key lime pie yogurts. What in the hell was I thinking?
Edward interrupted my thoughts, "Tell me what you are thinking?"
"I was actually thinking about what awaits me at the house of torture."
He pursed his lips to hold back laughter and I smiled. He didn't miss it. All of a sudden he laughed out loud.
"We're here… 'at the house of torture'," he quoted me, still chuckling.
Alice suddenly was just outside of my window with her hands on her hips, her eyes narrowed. I gulped and slower than usual got out of the car.
Edward met me outside; almost protective…Alice must have been really mad…or excited. She was jumping up and down suddenly exclaiming,
"Oh Bella! I was mad because of the things you and Edward were saying with my fun games! But I just saw the greatest vision today! We are going to have so much fun! Come on!
She grabbed my hand and pulled me through the door. Inside everybody except Carlisle and Esme was sitting on the couches, waiting. They weren't talking, just smiling…creepy.
Alice turned to the couch Rosalie and Emmet were sitting on, "Rosalie? Ready?"
Rosalie jumped up off of the couch rushed to my other side and pulled me into her arms. We raced up the stairs and we were inside Alice's room within seconds.
Alice grabbed her purse, a medium brown leather hobo. The shiny gold buttons said, "Vera Wang" on it. She handed me a short dark wash jean skirt and a tank top.
"What is this?" I asked her disbelieving that she could actually expect me to wear this tiny skirt and skimpy shirt. Her mouth formed into a tight line,
"Bella just put it on."
"No…" I took one glance at her face and suddenly yelled, "Edwaaaaaaard!!!!!." He was up in a flash, eyes wild with worry.
"What's wrong, Bella?" I just pointed at Alice and Alice answered for me.
"She refuses to wear this." Then she showed Edward the clothes. Edward was thoughtful for a moment and then replied,
"I can't say that I disagree with Alice, put it on Bella." I gasped at Edward, shocked. Rosalie and Alice snickered and then I was shoved into the bathroom. I sat in there for 30 minutes, in the dark no less. When I finally got out I was in the clothes, on my feet were chocolate brown Ugg boots and my hair was in curls up in a ponytail.
"Alice-," She cut me off before I could finish.
"We are going to the mall and yes Edward lied." She threw me a oversized bag and a leather jacket that went with the outfit. I gave her a questioning look,
"Come on and get in the car, you are not getting out of this. And don't worry it will only be a short trip… and hour at the max." This brightened my outlook and I made my way downstairs.
"I like it." Edward's voice came from behind me, from the stairs. I immediately blushed,
"Are you coming? I think that you owe me for lying this morning." Alice answered for him,
"Nope…if he wants his big surprise." She turned toward him and winked. Edward shrugged,
"Well, I do love surprises." I huffed and followed Alice out of the door to her yellow Porsche.
