Chapter Three – A Chance Meeting
Bella's POV
Beep…
Beep…
Beep…
I groaned and rolled over, hitting the snooze button. Before I could drift back to sleep I heard the door open and was bounced awake. Literally.
"Alice!" I nearly yelled. I was not a morning person.
"Get up already! I have a surprise for you!" She said happily as she continued to bounce up and down on the bed.
"Alright! Geez. And just how much coffee have you had this morning?" I asked her, giving her my 'motherly' look.
"Only a little" she replied with a large grin. I sighed and pulled the covers back and sat up.
"Okay, what's the big surprise?" I asked, trying to disguise the annoyance in my voice.
"You'll see. But first, let's get you some appropriate clothing." She said, grinning that evil smile of hers. I got up and grabbed some clothing from the closet, heading toward the bathroom.
"Hurry!" Alice yelled at me as I shut the door to the bathroom. I rolled my eyes and shook my head. There was no way I was going to rush my hot, relaxing shower. I stripped down, turned on the shower and waited for the water to heat up…
I slowly opened the bathroom door, hoping Alice wasn't too mad. I had accidentally taken a long time in the shower and I didn't realize how long I was really in there.
"Isabella Marie Swan. Do you realize exactly long you have been in that bathroom?" She paused, waiting for an answer before barging on ahead anyway. "Two hours Bella! TWO hours! I thought you were going in to change, not take a two hour long shower." She gave me a glare, handed me my purse and dragged me out the door.
"Where are we going?" I demanded as we got in her little mini cooper. She gave me a grin and kept driving, eventually turning on some Cake and Dispatch.
"I stick loneliness, you lips
and the two coins of your eyes
into my pockets
well the train skates into
Port Henry late Sunday
sometimes when I'm riding high
feeling fine you know there's something
troubling yah, troubling my mind
so I reach into my pocket for some
small change
I reach into my pocket for some
small change
I want bones like iron blood like mercury
so I can tell you when I'm rising
and when I'm sinking in
CHORUS
we're gonna take it to the people
hey let's drink from the cup
share some luck
go ahead and laugh cause it don't cost much
no, no, it don't, don't cost much
x2
I stick loneliness, your lips
and the two coins of your eyes
into my pockets"
(Two coins – Dispatch)
Alice and I laughed and started to sing along with the music. Just as the song finished we pulled into Alice's favorite place in the entire world, other than Jasper's arms…the mall. I groaned loudly and started to complain.
"Alice! The mall? Really? You know I hate it here! I don't even have money to shop so there is no poi-mph…" I started to list the reasons why we should turn the car around but she decided that it was enough and put her hand over my mouth. I rolled my eyes and gave up.
"That's better. Now, YOU have a hot date tonight, which I will not hear a complaint about thank you. We have to get you a stunning outfit so let's go!" She let go of my mouth and jumped out of the car before I could protest.
"MARY ALICE BRANDON YOU ARE SO DEAD" I shouted at her through the windows of the car though it was far too late. She was already half way to the door. I growled and opened the door, a sour look on my face.
I know, way too short. I'm sorry. I wanted to get it up there. Yay for writers block. XD
I will try to get the next chapter up as soon as I can but the homework has been piling up so no promises as to when I can. ASAP.
Read and Review! Please and thank you.
