Bella Pov
I quickly rushed to my job, while praying and hoping I wasn't too late. The door chimed, and as soon as Alice saw me, she smiled. I smiled back relieved that I wasn't, (hopefully), in too much trouble. Alice made her way over to me, almost skipping, and yet looking as graceful as ever.
"So you finally decided to arrive?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry for being so late." She giggled.
"Bells your're only five minutes late, don't worry about it." I couldn't help pulling my best friend into a tight squeeze
"I can't breathe." I laughed, releasing Alice.
"I better go start helping with whatever." I quickly said and with a smile, I headed toward the back room.
I loved the job that I worked at. It was a small coffee shop ; which was owned and operated by Alice. It was called AC's Coffee Shop. The AC, of course, stood for Alice Cullen. The atmosphere was always bright and energetic. There was never a boring day at work, especially when with someone like Alice was being the owner.
As I walked from the back, I applied my nametag. It read Bella. I and was usually a waitress, and occasionally I served breakfast. The breakfast was any kind of pastries imaginable, and Alice was famous for them, in our small town, Forks.
I wasn't surprised to see that the shop was pretty full. I glanced at the clock, "6:30". Just the right time for customers to start pouring in. I found Alice standing next to a writing down orders for a customer. I quickly pulled out an order pad from my apron and went to a table. I approached a young couple, who appeared to be in there mid twenties I smiled brightly.
"Hello, my name is Bella. What can I get for you this morning?"
"What would you recommend?" The man looked at me, with a small smirk on his face, but I chose to ignore it
"Well, the bagel and cream cheese special is pretty good." That was a total lie; I had never tried it in my life.
"What exactly is that special?" I gulped as the woman slightly sneered. Great, a customer who hated me, in a matter of five seconds..
"Well it comes with two bagels along with cream cheese, any type of fruit, and a medium coffee."
"Is it fat free?" Oh perfect. I just happened to get stuck with a couple that worried about what they ate. I tried to keep the smile on my face.
"I'm not sure about that, you could ask the manager."
"Well forget this place then, I don't even know what's in your food. Let's go, sweetie pie." I tried my hardest not to gag. I watched the woman walked off, (add in "and then") the man stood up. I smiled, glad that the couple were finally leaving, as I turned around, the man grabbed my arm."
"If you ever find out what's in that bagel here's my number." I grabbed the piece of paper and watched the guy wink at me before walking out of the shop. When he had time to write the number down I don't know, all I know is that there was no way in hell he was getting a phone call.
I slid my time card into the box and walked out of the backroom. I threw my coat on, ready to get home. It had been an extremely long day. Dealing with the couple in the early morning hours, a screaming baby at noon, and a coffee spilling all down me; I was wiped out. I just wanted to go home and sleep. As I entered the front of the shop, to say goodbye to Alice, I was glad it was relatively quite. There were only a few customers and for that I was thankful. Alice smiled at me, waving me over where she was sitting at a table.
"Hey."
"Hey, rough day?"
"Gosh. It was terrible. I had a rather rude couple this morning, a crying baby at noon, and a coffee just spilled a little while ago." Alice laughed gently.
"That really sucks; I had it easy all day." I glared, and she only smiled, attempting to look totally innocent.
"Yeah I know." I sighed.
"You doing anything on Friday?" I had to think, was pretty sure I didn't have anything planned
"No, why?" I was slightly wary; usually Alice wanting to do stuff with me involved shopping or playing "Guinea Pig Bella".
"Well, we should go to the movies or something, and I'm paying."
"No, you're not, I'm very capable of paying for myself, thank you very much." Alice rolled her eyes and put her hands up in a surrender motion.
"I was just trying to be nice."
"I know, and you're always nice."
I jumped as Alice's cell phone rang and she giggled. I really needed to get home, make dinner, and get a shower. I was slightly curious as to who was calling, and she motioned for me to wait. Her voice was quiet, but her face held a small smile. When she was done she turned to me suddenly, not able to contain herself , and was practically jumping up and down in her seat.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Carlisle and Esme are coming on Sunday! I smiled; Carlisle and Esme were wonderful people, so gentle and loving toward everyone.
"That's great news, I haven't seen them in while."
"Yeah, they miss everyone and they'll be staying for a whole month." I was suddenly very excited. Carlisle and Esme lived in Palo Alto, California and as far as I knew they loved it.
"So is it just them coming?" I didn't know of anyone else who might come, but you never know.
"Nope, there's one other person." I frowned, wondering who it could be.
"Who?"
"Edward."
Author Note: So I know it's not the longest chapter in the world. Hopefully they'll be longer, although I can't promise that. School is starting up again tomorrow. I'll try to update once a week and probably once on the weekends. I hope this chapter was enjoyable. Criticism welcome.
Much Love,
Kaylee
