Second chapter! Thank you, you, you ALL for the replies! They make me happy!

Read and Reply!!! Umm,... what should I give you guys? A cookie? How 'bout an apple?

"Uh huh?"

I really had nothing else to say. Rose was one of those weird people that preferred dark and gloomy, instead of warm and sunny. It was a miracle someone else agreed with her. Or the other way around…

"Oh, and then he said, 'You should come and hang out with us for a while' and I said, 'I'd love to' and then we smiled at each other, and then I left," she murmured, sighing happily.

"So… that was it?" I asked after it seemed as if she would say no other word.

She looked puzzled, "Wasn't that enough?"

Umm.. tough question. "Yeah I guess," I lied.

"So, what was up with the 'life is so unfair!'" I quoted, getting up and stomping my foot like I'd seen her do multiple times.

"Oh, that… well, the real reason I had gone running was to go see if the had any of those cute red platform shoes at the mall, but when I got there, they were gone."

Typical. Rose was a shop-aholic.

"Oh," I stated in agreement, my thoughts wandering to the 19th century Georgia, where Gone with the Wind was set.

"So, are you coming with me?" she asked excitedly, pulling me out of my trance.

"Coming with you where?"

"To the Cullen's, of course!" she almost squealed.

"Which Cullens?" I asked stupidly. I should know by now that she was referring to her new husband-to-be.

"Hell-o? The new neighbours? The ones I've been talking about for the past few minutes?"

Wow. Sarcasm suited her.

"If I remember correctly, you only talked about one person."

Ha. That quieted her down, I thought with a giggle.

"Right. Well, are you going?" she insisted.

I pondered this for a moment. I had plenty of homework for the week after next, and there was still that Smallville marathon…

"Will you hate me if I don't?" I asked glumly.

"With my heart."

Oh well. No Tom Welling for me today. I nodded slowly, afraid she might overreact and jump on me.

"Oh Bella, thank you!" she gushed, her eyes glowing with excitement. This made me smile. Only a few things made Rose this happy. I pulled her into a bear hug, muttering, "Remember to make me your maid of honour."

It's really short (sorry!), and it seems slow moving, but it'll get better :)

Thanks soooooooooo much for the replies I got! Although they weren't millions, they were nice!

Love you all,

Kristy
