Alice's Point of View

Chapter 3

I was so excited! I had gotten so many new clothes at the mall today! The best part was that Jimmy Cho's had a sale! I got 7 pairs of shoes for only 300 dollars! I was so proud of myself for spending wisely. Jasper had another "talk" with me last week about how I was wasting money on things I didn't need. I tried to convince him that I needed everything I bought but then he showed me a carefully organized chart he had made on all my shopping records. He pointed out about "things" I "needed" in the past that were now in the back of the closet. He had begun having these "talks" with me after we moved. Carlisle had to rent a whole other truck for my wardrobe. But today I showed him! I saved money and 2 pairs of the shoes I bought were for Rose, another two were for Esme! That only left me with 3 pairs of new shoes for myself! I chucked to myself which was responded by odd stares from the people around me.

I certainly looked like a girl who needed help to all the humans in the mall. I was wearing black pumps, a white shirt with a black coat and to top it all off I had about twenty bags on my arms. I also bought some new clothes at Guess and they were having a sale too! Then I had gotten Christmas Gifts for everyone! For Carlisle I got a Rolex watch, for Esme a new paint set, for Rosalie a new juicy necklace, for Emmett a football signed by Joe Montana, and for Jasper a Confederate Flag. They were all very good gifts I must say and I awarded myself in my head.

I finally walked out into the garage and found my car. It was my favorite, my yellow Porsche. I stuffed the truck with all my new items and headed back home. I was at the stoplight two blocks from where the house was when I suddenly had a vision.

Esme and Carlisle are sitting in the living. Esme is holding a baby.

"Whose my little baby girl?"

Esme smiles and laughs "That's right you are!"

Carlisle looks lovingly at the both of them

Holy Crap! How did Esme and Carlisle get a baby? Vampires cannot get pregnant!

Without thinking I stomped on the petal and went though the red light. I swerved and missed every car thanks to my relaxes. I was only a block away when I heard the police siren behind me. I looked in my mirror and saw the cop indicating I should move to the side. Crap! As soon as I have a vision of Esme and Carlisle having a baby I get pulled over by a police officer! And it's in the beginning of the snow storm too! My car's paint job is going to get ruined! I sharply pulled to the side hoping the cop would pass me and I could get home but this cop was not to be tampered with. He went right behind me and got out of the car quicker that a rabbit getting away from a fox!

He ran straight up to my window and tapped on it "Ma'am I need to speak with you!"

I rolled down the window and gave him my best smile "Yes sir?" I answered politely.

"Ma'am you ran through a red light! You almost hit several cars passing through! It's the beginning of a snow storm and you're causing the most trouble!"

"I am so sorry officer! It's just that my mom is bringing home her baby today and I need to see my new sibling!" I whined like a little five year old. It was true though I needed to see this baby!

"Oh ma'am well first of all congratulations! Second I am sorry but I still have to give you a ticket! It's the law you broke!"

I tried to contain my anger and laughter. I was so mad that he wouldn't let me go after I told him my mom was bringing home her new baby! And I was trying so hard not to laugh; this man had the funniest accent I have ever heard in my life!

Come on Alice think! You need to go see this baby!

"Sir," I asked politely "Are you married?"

He gave me the funniest looking stare. I think he thought I was hitting on him!

"Yes, why?" he chewed his bottom lip nervously. I got the worst feeling that he was deciding whether or not he should cheat on his wife with me! EW GROSS!

"I have a beautiful pair of Jimmy Cho's high heels. I am sure your wife would love you of those for Christmas!"

His eyes light up intensely, it made him look like an owl!

"Jim-m-m-m-m-y-y-y-y-y-y C-c-c-c-c-h-h-h-h-o-o-o-o-o?" he stuttered "those are so expensive! My wife would love one on these! What size do you have?"

Yes I got him!

"Size 6?"

"That's her size! Boy oh boy!"

I got out of the car and into the snow storm. I was going to have to do my hair all over again now! I walked back to the truck and pulled out a pair of my new blue shoes. I reluctantly gave them to him.

"Ok ma'am you can go now! Sorry for the disturbance!"

He was going crazy over looking at the pair of shoes. I wondered why he cared so much about them. I ran back into my car and sped off. From my back mirror I could see he left. Thank goodness that was over! Now off to see the baby!
