A/N: okay here's the second chapter. I decided to have them all have some sort of plot to them. At least this one and the first one will.

Disclaimer: as much as I wish I did, I unfortunately do not own Twilight. It all belongs to the all-powerful Stephenie Meyer.

Bella POV:

I slowly opened my eyes. I was thankfully back at the Cullen's house. I think I had been traumatized for life by the bachelorette party that Alice threw for me. I stiffly sat up. Something tickled my arm and I reached over to find that my arms were covered in feathers.

"Why am I covered in feathers?" I yelled to no one in particular. Alice was in the room in an instant.

"It was Emmett's idea of a joke. You were passed out cold and he covered you in glue and then he and Jasper had a pillow fight over you. When a couple of the pillows broke, it effectively covered you in feathers."

I groaned; leave it to Emmett to think covering someone in feathers was a good idea for a prank.

"What time is it Alice?"

"Quarter to three. Two late nights in a row make you very tired."

I yawned. I had slept for almost 12 hours and I was still tired!

"What torture do you have planned to day?"

"Family bonding."

"What? I don't remember anything about that on the itinerary." Alice had planned out the week of the wedding months in advance. I was sure that family bonding wasn't in the schedule.

"Well since Renee came early and you're feeling guilty about not spending more time with her and Charlie, I decided that we are going to be doing some family bonding."

'What are you planning to do exactly?"

"We are playing baseball."

I stared at her. How were the Cullen's going to play baseball with humans around? When I had watched them the first time, it was all too obvious that they weren't normal.

"But Al-"

"Don't worry Bella; we'll keep our super powers in check."

Grr… It was so annoying when she answered your questions before you asked them!

"Now come downstairs, everyone's been dying to see you sleeping beauty."

There was even more chaos today than there was yesterday. People running to and fro, more people draping the midnight blue fabric that had arrived yester day on every possible surface, the smells of food cooking, obviously for the human guests, all of it was overwhelming.

"Bella!" everyone shouted when they saw me descending the stairs. Everyone was sitting on the couch and it looked like they had all been up for a while. I instantly became more aware of my crumpled pajamas and my greasy hair.

"Hey everyone!" I said tiredly.

I sat down next to Edward and rested my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes and was half asleep in seconds. Tanya must have thought I was entirely asleep, because she said to Edward,

"She's awfully plain, isn't she, even for a human."

"I wouldn't want her any other way." Edward replied forcefully.

Her comment hurt though and a silent tear or two escaped my eyes. I eventually drifted off to sleep again, but it was a troubled sleep and I didn't feel refreshed when Alice woke me up to say that I need to get dressed because we were going to leave for the baseball game. I meekly followed her up the stairs. Once I was in her room, I broke down into tears.

"Bella, what's wrong?"

"Tanya…called me…plain! And now Edwards going to think I'm plain and…and, he's not going to…l-l-love me any more!"

"Oh silly! Edward will always love you! You're just having pre-wedding jitters!"She reassured me. "Anyways, no one will dare call you plain when I'm through with you."

"Only because there are afraid you'll suck their blood." (A/N: I know that doesn't really fit there, but pretend Bella is tired and doesn't really know what she's saying?)

Alice sighed and began to do my hair.

20 minutes later I looked like Baseball Barbie, Deluxe Edition. Alice had dressed me almost entirely in hot pink. I had my hair in a very high, curled pony tail, a hot pink base ball cap with rhinestones on it, a white baseball shirt with pink stripes and a large pink number 1 on back, pink baseball pants (I don't even want to know where she got those) and pink cleats.

"Alice, don't you think you went a little overboard on the pink?"

"Nonsense, Bella! A girl can never wear to much pink!"

I decided that my efforts where hopeless and that I would just accept Alice's outfit and not fight it. I was too tired to fight it any ways.

We arrived at the Forks Community Park. I guessed that the Cullen's in their charade of normalcy had decided to play on a real diamond. The rest of the family had already arrived. I was glad to see I was not the only one wearing Alice's get up. Everyone else was, except everyone had on a different color.

"Now that everyone is here, why don't we split up into teams and start?" Carlisle said.

"Bella and Edward are going to be captains. Bride versus groom!" Alice shouted.

"Fine I'm picking first!" I said. Jasper had ramped up the excitement and I was feeling a little more awake now. "I pick Emmett!"

Even without using his vampire strength, I knew he would still be able to hit the farthest out of any one.

"Jasper." Edward countered.

"Alice"

"Rosalie"

"Charlie"

"Phil" (I know, he kind of came out of no where, he came on the same flight as Renee)

"Renee"

"Carlisle"

"Esme"

"Hey no fair!" Jasper shouted. "Bella's team has one more player than we do."

"I'll just keep score."Esme suggested.

"You don't have to Esme, I'll do it." I said.

"No Bella, you should play. I'm used to keeping score for these hooligan's all the time." She motioned to her family as she said this.

I gulped; I had been hopping for a way to get out of playing.

We flipped a coin and Edward won, so my team was out in the field first. Emmett was pitching, Charlie on first, Renee on second, Alice was catcher and I was the third base (wo) man. The base men where going to have to double as outfielders too.

Rosalie was up to bat first. The Cullen's had to appear normal, so she hit a pop up that was easily caught be Charlie. Out 1!

Next up to bat was Carlisle, who hit a grounder that Emmett effortlessly scooped up and through to first base to get Carlisle, who was practically walking to first base given the normal speeds the Cullen's played at. Out 2!

Next was Edward. Emmett threw the pitch and it went whistling past Edward and smacked into Alice's glove. Strike one! Again Emmett pitched the ball, at speeds faster than your average MLB pitcher, no doubt. Strike two! I was wondering if Edward was doing this on purpose. Why would he let my team have the first inning without getting anyone on base? Emmett threw the pitch again. I could hear it whistling from my position on third base. Edward brought the bat around hard and I knew he was going to hit it this time.

"Crack!" The ball went flying and Edward was left standing at home plate with half a bat in his hands.

"Oops." Edward said. Oops was right, he had broken a metal bat in half. Everyone ran up to Edward to look at the bat. It was broken off a few inches above the top of the grip. The metal shards on the broken end were bent at odd angles.

"Holy crap!" Phil said. "I've been playing baseball my whole life and I've never seen anyone do THAT!"

"Even I didn't for see that." Alice said. She meant literately and figuratively.

"Umm… there must have been a crack in it or something." Edward said nervously. He was obviously trying to cover up his display of super human strength.

"Did anyone see where the ball went?" I asked.

"Yeah, it's halfway across the state by now." Charlie said. He was probably right even though he was exaggerating.

"Would you have any interest in joining my team in Florida?" Phil asked.

"I'm already going to college in Alaska. So I'm sorry Phil."

"Well if you ever change your mind, just give me a ring; we'd love to have you. You could go major league!"

"Professional sports have never interested me much." Edward answered as polite as ever.

"Oh, well, just give me a call if you reevaluate your decision…" he mimed a phone. Edward just nodded and let it down. Edwards hit was counted as a homerun. The next person up to bat has phil. He got out, but I didn't realize it. Charlie yelled from the other side of the field,

"Bells, we're up to bat. You coming?"

"Yeah Charlie." I has dreading this part of the night the worst, I had never been very good at hitting. More often than not, the ball hit me, not the bat.

The rest of the game passed with out event. Around 8:30, we stopped because it was starting to get dark. Everyone went back to the Cullen house. Alice put in a movie and we all watched it. She left and came back with popsicles.

"Who wants popsicles?"

They were the cheap kind that are still really good that are basically flavored sugar water in a tube and then you freeze at home. I got a pink one. I took a bit. It was good, but what flavor was it? I couldn't tell if it was strawberry or watermelon, or just a random combinations of fruit juices. I decided just to call it the pink mystery flavor. Maybe it was just one of those things that you weren't suppose to know, like what flavor your mystery flavor dum-dum was. (A/N: You can never tell with the mystery dum-dums because they mix two flavors together. Interesting fact of the day, courtesy of me.)

Once the movie was over, Renee walked out to her rental car and then came back with a dog crate.

"What's this for mom?" I asked, thoroughly confused.

"I got a puppy!" she squealed and let the dog out of its cage. It was a small black Toto dog. It was really cute. Jasper upon seeing the dog, fled upstairs.

"Is something wrong with Jasper?"

"Oh he just is very allergic to dogs; I'll go check on him." Not to mention he wanted to drain the poor little puppy of its blood.

"Oh, okay then. I didn't know. If I had, I wouldn't have brought him!"

"It's no big deal Renee. I was going to clean tomorrow anyways so I'll just vacuum extra good in here."Esme said.

"I'm so sorry that you have to do the extra work!"

"It'll be fine Renee."

The dog obviously noticed that the Cullen's were a threat. He was staring at Emmett, mostly, and growling. Edward cautiously bent down and brought his face towards the dog's. When he noticed Edward, he instantly stopped growling and started to like Edward's face. Edward sat back on the couch. Obviously he was surprised by the dog taking such a sudden liking to him. The little puppy was relentless and jumped up onto Edward's lap and continued to like his face.

"Stop that Midnight!" Renee scolded.

Midnight stopped liking Edward's face and decided instead to curl up in his lap.

"You're awfully small to be so hugely irritating." Edward said. Everyone burst out laughing. Midnight stood up and looked around trying to find what all the commotion was about. When he couldn't figure it out, he just curled right back up in poor Edwards lap.

A/N: Yeah this chapter isn't nearly as long as the last one! I hope you still liked it!
