Chapter 2
BPOV
"Look Bella everything will fine. Rose will sit near the window and you can sit in the
middle. Don't worry if the plain crashes we'll hold onto you." Alice smiled at me
sweetly.
I rolled my eyes and let Rosalie get past me so she could take her seat. Alice then gave
me a sharp push, although it appeared she had forgotten who she was dealing with. I then
proceeded to trip over my own feet and fell backwards. I scrunched my eyes shut waiting
to feel the impact of plane floor and bone, when all of a sudden I felt warm hands snake
around my waist and force me into a standing position.
"Nice catch Edward!" said a familiar voice. "Hey Bella!"
I turned to see who my rescuer was, as soon as my eyes met his bright green gaze, I felt
warmth flood to my cheeks, knowing that my face was turning to my customary shade of
pink.
"So you're the infamous Bella and I take it these two lovely ladies are the ones
responsible for this morning's escapade?" Edward said in a smooth velvety voice.
Realising his hands were still on my waist, I turned out of his embrace and took a step
back.
"Not quite sure about the whole infamous thing, but last time I checked my name was
definitely Bella. And yes these two nutters, who for some reason I call friends are the
ones responsible for giving poor Stuart a heart attack this morning."
"Stuart?" he enquired, amusement glittering all over his face.
"Air Steward." I stated.
"Oh I see, yes he did look slightly terrified"
Rose then chose this moment to turn and throw a bag at my head shouting,
"Put this in the over-head for me Bells."
Before I could even attempt to capture the bag two large hands shot out in front of me
and caught it.
"Its ok, I'll do it!" Emmett said looking very proud of him self as he clutched Rose's bag.
Edward and I let out a chuckle at the sight of him. It seemed he'd failed to notice that the
hot pink bag, that Alice and I had bought her for a previous birthday had the words 'Man-
Eater' written on it in diamante block capitals. The situation was made even funnier
when a very camp looking male steward walked past, looked Emmett up and down
appreciatively and slipped a small piece of paper into the front pocket of the bag.
Poor Emmett, looked completely mortified as the five of us clutched our stomachs in fits
of laughter. He slowly lifted the bag to his eye level and turned it round and read the
caption. He yelped, threw it into the over-head locker and slammed the door shut.
"Shame" Rosalie stated seductively "I would like to have gotten to know you, but it
seems you bat for the other side."
Emmett opened his mouth to protest, when Jasper chimed in with;
"Save it for later Baby!" and winked pushing Emmett into his seat.
"Oh no!" Alice cried at Jasper, her features showing mock horror "Not you too!"
Jasper stood there his mouth opening and closing. Alice walked up to him, placed her
small fingers underneath his chin and shut his mouth and made her way back to her seat.
Edward laughed, "Wow! That's amazing I've never seen anyone besides myself able to
shut them up like that."
"Alice and Rose are certainly very talented." I replied trying my best to give him a flirty smile. Although I had a feeling I just looked like a demented frog.
"Please could all passengers take their seats ready for take-off"
With that message Edward and I both took to our seats, my worries of the flight forgotten
as I thought of his green eyes.
"You two seemed pretty friendly with each other!" whispered Alice
"Didn't take you long, did it Bella? I didn't know you had it in you!" Rose added
"Edward merely stopped me from breaking my face after someone" I shot daggers at
Alice "Decided to push me!"
"You can thank me later" she sang
"Well you two went into flirting overdrive just then my friends, poor Emmett and Jasper
didn't know what had hit them!" I told them my eyebrows raised.
They both seemed to have a sudden interest in their surroundings; as Rose began looking out the window and Alice busied herself with her seatbelt.

"Finished flirting then Edward?" Emmett grumbled as I sat down.
"Yes thank you. Alice and Rosalie seem nice don't they?" I asked knowing that both of them were infatuated with the two girls, and trying to alleviate the attention of myself.
"Dibs on Rosalie. She's hot!" Emmett stated, the smile soon returning to his face.
I laughed "What about you Jasper?" Who seemed to be deep in thought.
"Huh?"
"We were just discussing how weird that Alice girl is." Emmett joked, winking in my direction.
"Yeah, she's not much of a looker is she?" I added. Jasper, who was usually calm, punched us both in the arm. Hard.
"Ok we get the point Jasper. No making fun of Alice. Jeez you've only known her for about 4 hours. It must be love at first sight." Emmett continued to joke.
I turned away and thought about what had happened moments before. Seeing Bella blush had been one of the most beautiful sights I had ever seen. I remembered how my arms had fitted perfectly around her waste. And her eyes! I knew that as soon as I made contact with her chocolate brown eyes, I never wanted to look at anything else ever again. She was like a drug, and I definitely wanted more.
"I want Bella" I said out loud to my two friends who I noticed seem to have similar expressions to what my own must have been.
Emmett snapped out of his reverie, "Well then… I wander where they're staying?"
"Pass me your sick-bag" I said to Jasper
"Eww! You better not be sick on me Edward Cullen! That's gross!" Emmett yelled
I snatched the bag out of Jasper's hand and grabbed a pen and started writing.
Bella, Alice and Rosalie,
I apologise for Emmett's man-eating tendencies, sometimes he is just unable to control himself. Also, apologies for Jasper's very poor impression of a fish, I think he was stunned by the fact that he had finally met three women that could reduce Emmett to tears and himself out of his own calm façade. Which hotel are you staying at in Hawaii? We would all like to apologise in person by buying you a drink, if that's okay.
Edward
P.S Sorry about the sick bag
I folded up the sick bag and peeked over the seat where I could see a blonde head, and a brunette one two rows ahead. I was unable to see the top of Alice's head as she was so small. I aimed it so it would tap Bella on the head and threw the bag over the seats. I sat down quickly and heard a muffled yelp and I knew my mission had been successful.
"What was that all about?" Jasper asked
"You'll see" I answered, smiling.
About five minutes later a white blob whacked my right eye. I swore and heard giggles a little way a way.
"What the hell?" Emmett yelled
"My reply" I simply answered.
I smoothed the sick bag out and read:
Edward, Jasper and Emmett,
We like the writing the paper, very classy. We are staying at the Beach Hut Hotel. And you are welcome to take us out for a drink, but be warned Emmett, Rosalie wants champagne, Jasper has it easy it only takes a thimble full of wine to get Alice drunk (it's her size… she is a midget is she not?) The writing change here from the cluttered scrawl that I assumed was Bella's, to a neat, swirly hand that I associated with Rosalie. Bella on the other hand drinks like a fish and is even more clumsy when she is drunk Edward so you will need to be on the alert to prevent her from braking anything! See you when we land.
Rosalie, Alice and Bella
