Chapter 1 - The Shopping Trip

Alice loved shopping and clothes. She couldn't understand why others didn't love it as much as her. Especially Bella, she loved her new sister and wanted her to look her best. After all, it was Alice's job to keep them all looking their best and outfitted with the latest fashions. Good thing they had the money. They didn't have to worry about financial problems. Alice had free reign with the shopping budget. Well, almost free reign. She wasn't supposed to overdo it, and sometimes had to be sat down and reminded that she didn't need to spend so much on clothes so often. She had come close many times to incurring her father's wrath with her spending, but she always seemed to get by with just a talking to and a promise not to do it again.

Alice had been badgering Bella to go shopping with her for the last 2 weeks. Bella hated shopping. She would rather let someone else do the shopping. It wasn't important to her like it was to Alice. That was hard for Alice to understand and to take "no" for an answer. Alice had become relentless with pestering Bella to shop with her. She wanted to plan an all-day affair of shopping and lunch, well, lunch for Bella since the wedding was right around the corner. She also wanted to have some alone time with Bella to talk over more plans about the wedding and Bella's wedding dress without all the others around to make their snide comments about Alice and her planning adventures. She really wanted some bonding time alone with Bella.

Bella, although she loved Alice like a sister and best friend, she despised shopping and the wedding plans. She would rather just elope but she felt she owed this to Edward since he wanted to do things the old fashioned way, and also to Charlie. If she had to eventually distance herself from her family and friends, she wanted them to at least have this one wonderful and special memory to help pull them through her disappearance and eventual fake death. Bella shuddered thinking about it. Bella decided she would ask Edward how to handle Alice since she did not want to hurt her feelings. Edward said he would talk to Carlisle about it. Bella decided to let it up to them.

Edward:

"Hey dad, do you have a minute," Edward asked Carlisle.

Carlisle was off from the hospital this weekend and this was as good as time as any to talk to him about Alice and her shopping harassment. Edward would just rather tell Alice outright to knock it off, but Bella didn't want to hurt her feelings. Actually, Edward didn't either, but sometimes Alice would not take "no" for an answer.

"Sure son, what is it," Carlisle asked.

"Well, Alice keeps badgering Bella about going on an "all-day girls shopping spree and wedding fashion talk" and Bella despises this. She knows Alice means well, but you know how Alice can get. Besides, Bella has enough on her mind with the wedding coming up and all the issues she will have to deal with when she is changed. We thought maybe you would know how best to handle Alice without hurting her feelings," Edward told him.

"Couldn't Bella just go with Alice and have a nice time with her. I know she hates to go shopping, but Alice is doing a lot for your wedding and I think it would be nice for them to spend a little time together," Carlisle suggested.

"Dad, you know how Alice is with shopping, she's relentless and she'll drag Bella all over. Couldn't you talk to Alice," Edward asked again.

"I really think it would be a good idea for Bella to go. Call her in here and let me talk to her," Carlisle said.

"Okay, good luck with that one, Dad," Edward said smiling.

Carlisle:

Not long after Bella knocked on the study door. She was staying with us this weekened. "Come in," I called to her.

"Dad, you wanted to talk to me," Bella asked cautiously.

"Yes, about Alice and the shopping trip she wants to take you on, I know you do not like shopping, but could you go for Alice's sake. She wants to have a nice time with you and talk to you about the wedding. Could you give her this one day? It would mean the world to her and to me. Do you think you could find it in your heart to do this for Alice? She is doing a lot for your wedding, and she deserves some time with you," I asked her.

"Well, since you put it that way, I'll go with her dad, but I hope it doesn't go on for more than an afternoon," Bella said to me hopefully.

Laughing I said, "I'm sorry sweetheart, I can't control Alice and her shopping once she gets started, but I do appreciate you giving her this day," I told her.

The Shopping Trip

Bella:

Alice finally managed to drag me to Port Angeles for a shopping trip. She chatted the whole way there about the wedding and my wedding dress. She went on endlessly on how beautiful it was. She wanted to talk about the table settings and the decorations as well. I couldn't care less. She was getting a little agitated with me for ignoring her. I was thinking of Edward and what he and his brothers were up to. They went on a hunting trip looking for bigger game animals. I know they can't get hurt but I am always glad when they are all back safe and sound. Guess I will eventually get over this when I am changed.

"Bella, what do you think of a forest-themed wedding?" Alice asked nudging my arm.

"What? Forest? What do you mean forest?" I asked her.

"A wedding in the forest, amongst the trees and we could decorate it with beautiful hanging flowers to filter out the sun. Of course it will have to be in the evening at sundown or later with having to invite all the humans. It will be wonderful, I will take care of everything, even the benches and table settings," Alice said excitedly.

"Oh, that sounds nice. What if it rains?" I asked.

"It won't rain, remember I have an insight on the weather and so far there is no rain in sight for the day you have planned. Now what about the place settings? I think it needs to be like "A Midsummer's Night Dream". Can't you just picture it?" Alice said getting lost in the thought.

"Uh, yeah, I guess so," I said uninterested.

"Well you could at least act like you care. I've done a lot of work on this and it is going to be beautiful, not get excited about it or you'll hurt my feelings, sister dear," Alice said smirking at me.

"I like that we are sisters. I've never had sisters before, I even enjoy Rosalie now." I told her.

"You will get used to her. She has really come around to you too. Now, we are here, where do you want to eat," she asked me.

"I don't care, pizza sounds good," I suggested.

"Pizza it is," she said pulling into an Italian eatery. Bella ordered a slice of pizza and a diet soda. Alice got a salad and played around with it. She was too busy trying to convince Bella of wedding details and shopping.

"Bella, you need new clothes for the honeymoon and afterwards. Surely you are not planning on wearing your old clothes are you?" Alice asked horrified.

"What's wrong with my clothes? And yes, I was planning on wearing my clothes. I don't need new ones, Alice," I told her.

"Yes you do! We are going shopping and getting you some new clothes. This is our afternoon to shop and have fun like sisters do. As soon as you are finished, we are going to the mall," declared Alice.

Ugh, I hate the mall! I have to find a way to cut this day short, but dad asked me to do this for Alice. Thanks a lot dad, I don't see you here! I'm going to find a time to call him and tell him what he got me into!

"Aren't you about finished with that pizza, all you have left is 2 bites of crust. I'm beginning to think you are trying to put this off," Alice said looking a little hurt.

"Uh, no, I was just daydreaming. I'm finished, I just need to use the restroom," I told her. Heading to the restroom I took my phone out and called my vampire father.

"Hello, Bella! Is everything okay?" he asked.

"Just like a dad, always worried something is wrong! Well, yes there is! Alice wants to buy me a whole new wardrobe for the honeymoon and after. Dad, I don't want that. That would cost a lot of money. Do I have to?" I asked hoping he would say no.

Chuckling into the phone he said, "Just humor her, let her buy you a few things and then say it is enough. Try to have a nice time sweetheart!"

"Oh yeah, you're not here being herded from store to store. I hope you're enjoying this daddy dear!" I said annoyed.

Laughing again, he said, "Oh, you have no idea how much I am enjoying this my little one!"

"I'm going to tell Alice you really feel left out because she never takes you shopping and you would like a new suit and some casual clothes. Now who's laughing?" I taunted him.

"Bella, remember you are staying here this weekend and you have to come home where I am off this weekend. If you say that to Alice, it will be a lie, and you know what happens if you lie or do I need to remind you of the last time you lied?" He warned me.

"Ugh, no dad, thanks for the pleasant memories…you would bring that up," I teased.

Laughing again he said, "Have a nice time and enjoy yourself with your sister. Make some nice memories with her."

I hate when he gets all sentimental with on me. He always knows just how to get to me. "Okay dad, I'll try, but I'm not promising a miracle."

"Bella, behave yourself, or else," he warned.

"Yes sir! See you later Mr. Macy!" All I heard was chuckling. Yeah, I'm glad someone is happy!
