Chapter 1 – Envelopes.
BPOV
"Rose, Alice, I'll be at the library sending Renee an email, pick me up when you are done shopping." For god's sake, we have been in the mall for ages and Alice has made me try on every dress in almost every store! How does she afford her obsession? Rose and Al were busying themself with Jimmy Chou while I lugged around half the worlds amount of trees in the form of the shopping bag.
"You can go but..." whined Alice. Sometimes that pixie can act to big for her boots!
"You have to try on these Jimmy Chou's." Rose held up a pair of drop dead gorgeous heals that were to die for!
"Rose! They are 700 dollars! Are you mad!? That is like all of my yearly income!" it wasn't really but 700 dollars on a pair of heels? Nah, to Alice's annoyance, I'm a K-mart gal. I scooted out of the store before I could be forced in to any more retail labour. Sometimes I wonder why i even bother on these shopping trips!
I let out a big sigh of relief as i sat down in one of the comfy library chairs in front of a computer.
"Bloody hell Renee how many email can you send me within a day" I mumbled as a look through my unread emails.
Hi mum, how are you and Phil, and my, to be little bro or sis going, still like a sack of jumping been? Ha! You really need to stop worrying about me so much and worry about you Phil and the Baby, Charlie's a cop for peat's sake! And i can't be replying to emails every second of the day and night!
Love ya
Baby Bella
Ps. my computer at home is not working so don't worry when i don't reply to your email to hasty. I have to go to the library to access a computer.
My mum needs everything for her or else she will have a panic attack!
As I finned sending my email I heard a big crash and turned around to see Alice and Rose on the floor with a million shopping bags! That pixie must have spent more than her weight in money to afford all that! And Rose! Don't even get me started!
I bussed myself in the toriest brochures bracing myself for the dreaded call to help them with their bags.
"BELLA! Come help with this, you can't seriously expect me to carry all this with these tiny hands!"
Oh yep, there it is...
A fluro yellow piece of paper caught on the pin board behind Alice as I struggled to find my balance with the weight of the shopping bags.
"Hey Rose, what's that paper on the pin board?" i grunted, trying to move the conversation from the entire thing Alice bought.
"Wow! It looks like a local Vegas band is carrying audition for three single female performers in the Marriott! Alice? Bella? Have you got your karaoke shoes on?" Geez, I hadn't sung for months and the only time was when i was drunk at the Easter party!
"I don't have any karaoke shoes! Maybe there is some in the Louis Vitiation store down stairs!" Aghh! Sometimes that pixie can be so compulsive and obsessed with shopping! Well, there was no way i was staying for any longer so i grabbed the paper and tripped on my feet out of the door. I loaded to bags in the back of my Chevy and jumped in. Alice was obviously crushed for not being able to spend more time shopping so she refused to get into the truck.
"Al, why don't you just call your big brother Jacob? I'm sure he would love to spend hours at them mall repeatedly saying how hot Bella looks!"Rose suggested.
Ouch that hurt, "Hey you guys, you know me and Jake are have a break in our relationship, don't push me you no Jake mucked around with Leah"
Alice stormed off towards the payphones mumbling something like, "It's not my fault my brother is a complete moron for risking his relationship with Bella even though Bella obviously liked him!! It is kind of obvious that Leah likes him to!"
Oh well I will eventually get over Jake, Oh my god! What are we going to sing and what are we going to..." Groan
"What are you groaning about now Bella?'
"Rose, haven't you relised Alice said nothing about what we are going to were for the auditions? She's probably choosing them for us right now! If she gets me something flashy like the last party I will kill her"
"And I'll kill her for not taking me shopping to choose something for you!"Agreed Rose
My phone vibrated in my pocket. Grr! A message from Alice! What does she want now?
Hey Gosling,
It is Gorgeous, yours and my birthday soon, so you better get us something good!
Ps. look in glove and there is an envelope with our presents in it from our presents in it from our parents!
Xx pixie
I replied.
It's my birthday to pixie and I'll open it when i want to! Hehe, that's going to give me trouble tonight, I hope these presents are worth it! And pixie, don't act like we have any money to throughout the window! We will meet you back at the house you better hurry and Pixie,
C Ya then Gosling XXxx
"Rose, we have to beat Alice home she knows where our birthday presents are!"
"Kay I'll drive then" she said reaching for the keys
"No way! I don't care how Gorgeous you are I don't trust you to drive my Senior Citizen here" I said, tapping the hood of my Chevy.
Rose, defeated, handed me the keys and we were off! I even pushed my Chevy to 65 mph! (This is a major achievement for such a senior citizen)
"WHAT! How could she have beaten us! That is so unfair; your car is a piece of junk! We should have taken my BMW!" Sometimes Rose can be such a pest! It is not my trucks fault that we took so long arguing!
"I don't see why we were racing anyway! She can't get to the envelopes so she can do nothing but wait!" Rose grumbled in agreement. Sometimes we can be so silly! We have Alice's keys to her convertible so i don't know what we were worrying about!
We got out of the car laughing at the sight of an overly grumpy pixie n the roof of a convertible.
"Hey Al. Fancy seeing you here. For some reason you seem to be drawn to your car. We'll see you inside!" Hehe, it is so much fun torturing a pixie!
She leapt off the car but Rose was to quick and already had the three envelopes in her hand, she quickly handed us our named envelopes.
"Ready, 1, 2, 3! Open sesame!" we all gasped as we ripped open our envelope.
"WE ARE GOING TO VEGAS!" Alice screamed at a tone to high for human hearing and i gasped as ai realised that i had torn my ticket in half when I opened my envelope!
"Ahh, guys, I think I will be staying behind!" I held up my ripped ticket and Rose laughed!
"You idiot Bella! That's just the receipt! The tickets are the plastic things attached to the keys!" rose said, feeling so high and mighty.
"Why do we have keys?" sometimes Alice can be so dumb! But I didn't really know either, so I went with it.
"Bella Bella! It's from Jacob! Read your card!" Rose yelped.
I scanned through the birthday card and gasped.
"OMG, Bella! Read it out loud!" Alice begged.
"Umm,
Hey girls, hope you love your birthday presents! We have payed for you all to stay for a week in the Marriot in Vegas! Alice's Brother Jacob pitched in by buying you an RV for the month long trip to get down to Vegas! Quil, Embry and Jacob said that you can design what you want the RV to look like inside and out and they with fit it to your expectations! On Alice's Birthday next week you girls each get 600 for you to go on a shopping trip so you all have great cloths for Vegas! You will be leaving in two weeks on Rosalie's Birthday, and on Bella's Birthday a week later we have organized for you girls to spend a whole day at the 5Wonders Water Park! We all hope you girls enjoy the last teenage birthday you will ever have!
Bella we love you, Mum, Dad, Esme and Carlisle

"guys, i just realised that the audition are at the Vegas Marriot during the time we are staying! We have the whole road trip to think about auditioning!" Rose screamed!
