Alice's Point Of View

I was sitting in my father's car. He was driving my twin brother Edward, my best friend Emmett, and I, to the bus stop for our ride to summer camp. Yeah, we were 16 (Emmet was 17) and still heading off to a camp for the summer. I thought I wasn't going to survive, being outdoors and all. But I knew that my brother wanted to and Edward and I are rarely separated for a night, let alone a whole summer.

"We're here!" my dad, Carlisle, called from the front seat, as we pulled into a medium sized parking lot that was full of other cars dropping off their children as well.

"I'll see you three in August," Carlisle said, giving us each a hug, and almost being squished by big, muscular, Emmett when he received one from the gigantic grizzly bear.

"Bye daddy," I said, kissing him on the cheek. I was a true daddy's girl, and ever since my Mum died when I was 6, I would always go to him with all my problems.

"Bye my little pixie," he replied, ruffling my hair a little bit.

We all waved one last time as we boarded the charter bus with our suitcases. Luckily enough, we got to sit in the very back where there were three seats, but sadly enough, it was right next to the bathroom. I sat closest to the window, with Edward between Emmett and I. I leaned my head against the window and closed my eyes, letting my mind relax and I slowly drifted off into a light sleep for the two hour bus ride.

I had woken up just as we pulled into the camp area. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be after all, everything looked quite expensive. There were people everywhere around the camp, whether they were talking to someone they knew from previous years, or were just standing around looking lost.

"Ali, come on!" urged my brother as we climbed out of the bus. "Emmett and I are in Cabin 7. We're going there to unpack, and we'll meet you back here before the opening ceremonies."

"Sounds good to me," I replied. "I'm in Cabin 16, so I'll just head over there now and claim my bed. You know I need one by the window."

Edward and Emmett laughed at me and hugged me quickly before we all went our separate ways. I watched the retreating backs of my best friend and twin brother before I turned around and started off towards my cabin.

I pulled out my key, which was silver with an 'A' on one side, and the number '16' on the opposite. Walking up to the door, I slid the key into the lock and opened it with ease. I pushed open the slightly heavy door and looked around. Luckily enough, the bed closest to the window was empty, so I made my way over towards it and dropped my luggage onto the big, fluffy bed. I stretched my arms above my head, yawning slightly, before I realized that I wasn't alone. I turned quickly to face the open area of the cabin.

"Who are you?" a blonde girl asked me, tripping over a bag on the floor. "I guess I will always start camp like this. I'm Rosalie Hale, and this is Bella Swan."

"I'm Alice Cullen," I replied, flicking my hair out of my face and putting on a sweet smile. "It's nice to meet you both."

"Nice to meet you," I said to Bella, smiling, which she returned brightly.

"Well, we are going to head out now because I have to find my brother; he's in Cabin 7," Rosalie told me as she and Bella placed their sunglasses on, and headed for the door.

"Hey my brother and best friend are in that cabin, too! Do you mind if I tag along? I don't know many people here," I explained.

"Sure why not, we're going to be roomies for the next two months, we might as well get to know each other!" Bella smiled.

I grabbed my oversized, designer sunglasses and followed the other two girls to the boys' cabin. When we arrived, Rosalie checked to see if the door was locked; it wasn't. She turned the handle and pushed the door open, and suddenly, I was being crushed to death by a pair of strong arms.

"Alice!" I heard the deep voice booming my name.

"Hey, Emmett," I managed to gasp out, he was squishing me so tightly, I thought he was finally going to break me.

Finally, he let me go and looked at the other two girls. His eyes locked with Rosalie's and he blushed slightly. It was weird, normally Emmett didn't blush.

"Hey, uh, who's your friend?" he asked as he walked over towards Rosalie, taking her hand in his and placing a kiss atop it as he introduced himself. "Emmett McCarty."

"Rosalie Hale," she replied, giggling slightly as she tried to keep her cool.

As Emmett and Rosalie chatted quietly, a very gorgeous person walked around the corner. My heart completely skipped a beat or two. He was tall, around 6 feet or so, and he had long bleached blonde hair that was in sort of an emo style. He was dressed wearing mostly black and red, and had a lip piercing on the lower left corner of his mouth. I couldn't help but stare at him.

"Hey Rose! Bella, it's so awesome to see you again! Oh, hi I don't believe we have met. I'm Rosalie's twin brother Jasper. And you are?" His voice was amazing, and I blushed a deep shade of red when I realized he was talking to me.

"I'm Alice." My reply was so soft, I didn't know if he had heard me or not. He must have though, because he took my hand in his and spun me around. I giggled softly and blushed even more.

"A dance major, how awesome, it's my second major. I play guitar with my sister," he told me.

Edward then came around the corner and looked at me sharply for a reason I didn't understand, and then I realized that Jasper and I were still holding hands.

"Hey Ali, I'm guessing these are your new roommates? Ah yes, I have heard of you two. Bella Swan, the pianist and protégé of the stars, and Rosalie Hale, the voice of heaven on earth. I'm Edward Cullen, Alice's twin brother. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Bella smiled, shaking his hand. It was obvious she fell for his natural charm. ""Pleasure to meet you, Edward, I have heard of you as well. I played at a show that you were co-hosting once, and you are quite the pianist."

As Jasper and I began talking about nothing in particular, there was a knock on the door. Emmett walked over to it and behind it was a woman with shocking auburn hair, dressed to the nines like everyone else at this camp.

"Mom, what are you doing here?" Rosalie asked, rushing over to the woman and hugging her. Jasper had walked over and hugged her as well.

"Oh, well, Brawn needed extra counselors and I signed up last minute. Bella dear, it's so nice to see you again; taking a break from the professional circuit for the summer to just take it easy and practice is good for you. Who are your friends?" she asked as she stepped into the cabin in her red, patent leather, Mary Jane pumps.

"Emmett McCarty," Emmett told the woman, shaking her hand.

"Esme Hale," the woman said, "what's your major?"

Emmett smirked. It was his trademark around the ladies; I knew that from being with him at school all the time. "I am into everything, but my best major is vocal and bass guitar."

The woman then walked towards Jasper and I. She stopped in front of me and looked me over twice.

"I'm Alice Cullen, ma'am. I room with Rosalie and Bella. My major is dance," I smiled the best I could. Everyone always told me that I had the type of smile that would brighten a room.

"It's great to meet you dear," Esme said.

"You as well, Mrs. Hale."

"And who is this dashing young man you are talking to, Bella?"

"I'm Edward Cullen, it's a pleasure," Edward said, kissing Esme's hand politely. I rolled my eyes slightly at the interaction. Edward was a total suck up when it came to the higher ups.

Esme blushed. It seems as though another person had fallen for my twin's charms, and in less than an hour at that!

"Charmed, I'm sure."

When everybody was introduced, and just as we were getting into a comfortable conversation, a voice came over the loud speakers that were everywhere outside.

"Would all campers and counselors please make their way to the main stage by the lake? That's the main stage by the lake. Opening ceremonies start in ten minutes."
