Yeah, second chapter. I still don't have a set plot. Sorry about that. I keep thinking of things but then I see they have already been done. My writing gets better when I know where i'm taking it - when it has an actual purpose. Haha.

Still don't own anything.


This was a time when I wished I had Alice's sense of fashion. I was going out with the Cullen's for God sakes and I still could not make up my mind on a thing to wear!

I was deciding between my lime-green strapless dress that I wore two years ago to my friends sweet sixteen, what are a few missing sequence anyway? or my red-silk floral dress, yeah, so what it went to about mid calf? Everyone will be looking at Edward anyway. Then again..he will be looking at me. Crap!!

There was a knock on my door. No! I'm not ready yet! "Edward, please! Just a few more minutes!" I called. Please..

Just then the door flew open. I clutched my robe to my body and let out a cry.

"Nonsense!" screamed an overly excited Alice. "I'm here now, to save you from the fashion crime you were about to commit!" She laughed to herself.

She made her way over to me, dropping the shopping bags to the ground.

"But..how..?" I questioned, dumbfounded.

Alice simply tapped her index finger to her temple twice and gave me a wicked smile followed by a wink.

Duh, I thought to myself. Man do I love having vampires with special powers as my friends. I laughed at how insane that thought sounded. But it's true.

She dug through one of the bags and pulled out a pretty,royal blue, knit dress.

"Here." she said as she directed me to the bathroom.

I turned around and gave here one last look of gratitude. "Alice, you really are a lifesaver"

"Don't I know," she smiled sweetly, "but hurry out. I still need to do something with that hair of yours."

Ten minutes and a quarter-can of hair spray later, I was ready.

"W-Where's everyone else?" Where's Edward.

"They all went ahead to the party" Alice chirped "Don't worry, you'll see your beloved Edward soon enough"


When we arrived I could see Edward pacing outside, waiting for us. I smiled slightly and started preparing myself for the long sprint across the parking lot. Damn these heels! I fumbled with the door handle and then semi-quickly got out of the car. Not too fast I thought to myself, I don't want to end this night in the hospital.

Moments later I was in his arms.

He buried his head in my hair while I nuzzled into his chest. He let out a satisfied "Mmm" then pulled away enough so he could see my face.

"Shall we go?" he asked warmly.

"Yes" If we must.


(inside at the party)

I blushed slightly when I noticed Edward staring.

"Edward Cullen…" I started slyly.

"..Hmm?" He was barley coherent.

"Were you just ogling me?" I laughed innocently.

"Bella," Edward said breathlessly, "You look…incredible, to say the least."

I blushed again

"How can you expect me to not be entranced by your beauty?"

It took me a moment to pull my thoughts together and regain my voice. " I love you, Edward." What else is there to say.

"And I love you, Bella."

We were interrupted by some crazy man on the dance floor. Oh, wait, that's Emmett.

"Booo! BOOOO!" Emmett bellowed. "C'mon DJ! We want REAL songs! Not some cheesy slow song! That's for wussies! Only WUSSIES dance to that!"

"EMMETT! Here, NOW!" Rosalie pointed to the floor in front of her. The look in her eyes could stop a rampaging bear. That's pretty much what is happening. I laughed to myself at my own joke.

"Y-Yes, Rosie-baby?" He said in his best innocent voice. It sounded perfectly rehearsed.

She smiled at him sarcastically and ordered "We're dancing."

His eyes went wide with fear and he did his best puppy-dog pout, but that must have needed some work. It wasn't enough to get him out of Rosalie's grasp.

Edward turned to me. "Would you care to dance?" Doesn't he know I couldn't dance to save my life? He looked at me with his topaz eyes and I simply couldn't resist.


This chapter was a little hard because i'm excited about the next one. I already have it written and i'll probably post it later today if people want. Either that or i just feel like it. I did try to put the picture of the dress as an HTML code, but they don't let you do that! Yeah, you probably know that, but i'm still relatively new. I put a link to it on my profile if anyone was that curious.

Any suggestions?
