Chapter 2

The rest of the day was spent on my couch looking through the cards. Alice was right as usual. A week ago, I told her about Edward's present, and she said it would be a hit. Well, here I am, cuddling with my awesome boyfriend on a couch. I'd say it was a hit, too.

"Are they refundable?" Edward questioned. He hasn't taken his eyes of the coupons since he opened the gift.

Alice had talked about this, too.

Flashback

Edward and the rest of the Cullens had gone hunting. That left me time to talk to Alice about Edward's gift

"Bella, he's going to love it," Alice squealed. She had been jumping up and down for the past 6 minutes.

.I rolled my eyes, "Yes, Alice, you've been saying that." I grabbed her by the shoulders. "Calm down pixie."

She glared at me, but thankfully stopped bouncing. "Bella! You know I hate it when people call me that!"

"And by 'people' you mean Emmett. "I giggled.

Emmett had been teasing Alice all summer with names like 'shrimp' and, my personal favorite, 'pixie'.

She growled.

"Okay, okay! Forgive me almighty shopaholic." 'Shopaholic' was one of my favorites, too.

"Bella this is serious!" she all but hissed at me. "Emmett never going to cut it out!" She had started to passe around the room. She was going inhumanly fast, so I knew she was upset about this.

"Alice, slow down," I said with sympathy. I waited until she came to a full stop. "We'll get back at Emmett later. But right know, we need to talk about Edward's gift."

"You're right. Okay, well, I had a vision, Edward loved the coupons, but whatever you do, don't make them refundable." She warned, a grave expression covering her small, usually cheerful face.

"Why," I asked nervously.

"Edward will buy you five new cars, pay for you to go to collage, and take you to restaurants costing over one thousand dollars."

My knees buckled and I was crashing to the floor. Alice caught before I hit the ground with a 'thud'. ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS! FIVE CARS! PAYING FOR COLLAGE! Over my dead body! My head was spinning. There was no way I going to let Edward send me to collage.

"Bella!" I was suddenly aware of Alice calling me.

"What?"

"I said that's why you aren't making them refundable." Alice replied, annoyed.

"Oh. Yeah." To say I was relieved is an understatement.

"Silly Bella," Alice chirped. Only Alice could chirp. "Now that we've talked about that, let's go play dress up."

"I-I-I thought you wanted t-t-o talk about Emmett," I stuttered, panicked.

"Not now," She said in a singsong voice. I was doomed.

End of Flashback

Alice had more or less said it was a bad idea to make the coupons refundable. I tended to agree with her. I didn't mean to shout at Edward, but I really wasn't going to let him buy me five cars. I instantly felt guilty. His face filled with hurt, and he looked down. Alice had later said he would try to persuade me. I didn't have a chance, but Alice thought other wise.

"Edward, I didn't mean to shout at you, but if I made them refundable, you would probably buy me five cars or something like that." I gave him a knowing glance.

"Let me guess, you talked to Alice about the matter," Edward replied, looking me in the eyes.

"Yes," I breathed. I saw something flash in his eyes. Was it getting hot in here?

"Well, if you're sure…" he trailed off. His hand slowly wandered around my thighs. Stroking and caressing where ever they trailed.

"Yeah, I'm sure." He had a triumphant grin as I gasped. Just as he was about to put his lips to mine, I heard a battle cry like scream. It sounded like-

Suddenly I was swept away from Edward and out the window in no time flat.

"Bella!" Edward screamed.

I looked at my kidnapper.

"Emmett?"
