'Please, please, PLEASE!!!' Alice's whispering is distracting me from my trig homework.
'Miss Brandon, is there something you would like to share with the class?' BUSTED
'No sir'
I couldn't hold in my chuckle, earning an evil glare from my best friend. That's what she gets for trying to convince me to go to the annual Forks High School Halloween Extravaganza.
Alice leaned over and dropped the crumpled piece of notebook paper on my desk. Looks like she is starting a written assault on me now.
PLEASE. Bella, you have to come. Just think of the fun we'll have shopping for our costumes.
That earned an eye roll. She knows I absolutely HATE shopping.
Jasper will probably be there and you know how MUCH I am crushing on him. Maybe you could get Mike or even better...EDWARD to ask you to dance.
Three statements in that last sentence nearly had me on the floor. First, Mike Newton? I would rather slather myself in lamb's blood and throw myself to a pack of hungry wolves. Second, Edward Cullen? Granted, he is totally gorgeous and my biology partner, but beyond that...please, the boy barely acknowledges my existance. Finally, dancing? Is this girl on crack?!?!
I steal a glance at Alice's pleading eyes and carefully try to compose some sort of excuse to why I can't go. Yep, fresh out!
'Fine'
She started jumping up and down in her chair.
That stunt earned us detention that afternoon.
