Chapter Three
Caught in a dress
Bella's POV
I was not a morning person. I definitely was NOT a morning person when I get woken up at an ungodly hour. And I DEFINITELY was NOT a morning person when I get woken up at an ungodly hour…ON A SATURDAY.
When I wake up, I normally am a grouch, until I get some food and some good coffee into my stomach. And when I wake up at ungodly hour, I normally was a terror until I get some food, two good cups of coffee and some of Alice's secret stash of chocolate she has. However, when I get waken up at the ungodly hour on a Saturday…you better be out of my reach for my anger is easily to spark, even with food in my belly and coffee to awake my system.
So when Alice woke up on Saturday at six, I was positively steaming at the ears.
"Oh go take a cold shower, Bella," Alice said when I threw my pillow at her (which I might add missed her because my aim was horrible).
I growled as I stormed after her.
"Why the hell are you here anyways?" I asked her.
"We're going shopping, DUH!" Alice said, rolling her eyes.
"What?!" I said. "Alice, seriously, what do you need now?!"
Alice just smiled. I growled and stormed into the kitchen for some food. I ate slowly, knowing fully well that that would piss off Alice. She was rather impatient when she wants to do something. Sure enough she was telling me to hurry up, her finger tapping on the counter, and then five minutes later, she growled and snatched my bowl of cereal out of my hands.
"Hey!" I said was she dumped the remains of my breakfast down the drain. "I was eating that."
"Keyword: was," Alice said, rinsing the bowl with water. "Now go change. And make it quick, you already are trying my patience."
I growled and headed up stairs. I threw on a t-shirt and jeans, knowing that Alice won't approve of the look. She didn't and pointed me back up stairs.
"Hey, you said go change," I stated. "I changed. If you really want me to go back up stairs to change, I'll go—"
"No," she snapped. "You'll take your time and then when you come back down here, you'll be—I don't know—wearing sweats."
Okay, how did she know that I had a pair of gray faded sweats waiting on my bed for me?
She dragged me out of the house before I could say or do anything more. Rosalie was wanting outside with her M6.
"Took you long enough," Rosalie stated as Alice pushed me into the backseat.
"Bella was being difficult," Alice said as she got into the front seat.
"When is she anything but difficult when it comes to shopping?" Rosalie asked, smirking as she looked back at me.
I folded my arms over my chest and glared at her.
– An hour and then some later…
…and a few stores later –
"I'm seriously hating you right now, Alice," I muttered as I pouted in the changing room Alice just shoved me into.
We had visited many stores but this was the first time that Alice actually made me try on something. The other stories, we would just walk in, walk around looking—Alice telling the sales clerk that we didn't need help—and then just…walked back out. For two hours nothing but walking and my feet were hurting.
"Oh hush it and try on this on," Alice said, pushing a dress towards me.
It was blue and pretty, I'll give Alice that, but I wasn't sure about the neckline.
"Alice, why am I trying on this dress when I don't have a place to wear the dress?"
"Just try it on!" she snapped.
"Fine," I muttered.
The dress fitted nicely, not comfortable with the neckline as it did go a bit low, but I actually did like it. Not that I was going to tell Alice that.
"Okay, I'm in it, now I'm getting—"
"No you don't," Alice snapped, yanking the door open.
I glared at Alice.
She just smiled and dragged me out of the changing room.
"What did I tell you Rosalie," Alice said, making me face Rosalie, "the blue looks beautiful on her."
"Hmm, yes it does," Rosalie said, nodding, a slight smile on her face.
I blushed.
"Oh Alice, Emmett called me a second ago and he is going to be joining us," Rosalie said, looking at Alice, a certain gleam in her eyes that I couldn't read.
"Really?!" Alice said, her smile bright.
Rosalie nodded. "He brought Jasper and Edward along with him. You know…male 'support.'"
"Wait…brought?" I asked, picking up on the tense of the verb.
Rosalie turned her smile on me. "Yeah they are right there," she said and pointed behind me.
"You better not make me carry stuff Rosalie," Emmett muttered behind me.
"You shall carry whatever I wish so long as you want kisses," Rosalie snapped.
I heard two male chuckles and remained frozen where I was.
"Hey is that Bella…is a dress?"Emmett asked.
Alice piped up with a "Yeap, she looks beautiful. Bella turn around so everyone can see you."
I stated where I was. Rosalie raised one eyebrow in front of me.
Alice groaned and forced me to turn around. I resisted but that doesn't do much good when the pixie is somehow stronger than I was. I went scarlet when I spotted the men, but more so when I saw Edward's shocked expression.
Edward's POV
Holy Crow was the only thought I thought before my mind went totally blank at the sight of Bella. She looked so…beautiful, not that she wasn't already but the deep blue looked really good on her. She was scarlet just a second before Emmett whistled at her.
"Whoa, Bella," Jasper said, smiling. "You look good."
"I picked out the dress," Alice said, smiling.
Jasper chuckled as he kissed the top of her head. "I figured as much."
"I'm going to go change," Bella muttered and quickly stormed back into the changing room.
Emmett chuckled. "Earth to Edward!"
"Huh?" I asked, looking away from the door Bella just closed and back at Emmett.
Everyone smirked.
"Your jaw was practically on the floor," Jasper said, smiling.
"With drool coming out like this," Emmett said before imitating what I looked like.
I rolled my eyes.
"You were staring at Bella pretty hard, Edward," Rosalie commented, giving me this "knowing" look.
"I would be a fool not too," I stated.
Alice giggled.
Bella came out of the changing room dressed in jeans and a shirt. Though she was dressed casual, I think thought she looked good, the jeans forming to her legs.
"I'm hungry," she stated, forcing the dress back at Alice.
"Ditto," Emmett said, raising his hand. "Let's go get some grub."
"I guess we should eat," Rosalie said, standing. "We don't want to drop from starvation."
"Hey, I did say we would shop until we dropped," Alice joked.
I tagged behind with Bella. When Emmett dragged me out to Port Angeles to join the girls shopping, I did drag my feet especially since he woke me up at seven thirty in the morning and I wanted to sleep in until, like, noon. But now here, standing next to the beautiful Bella, I silently thanked Emmett for dragging me.
"You look…tired," I said to Bella looking at her.
"Alice woke me up at six this morning," she muttered, looking up at me.
I flinched, understanding her pain.
"But at least I'm here now, so you won't be entirely bored while Alice forces you to become her Barbie," I said, smiling at her.
She blushed for a second, a smile on her lips and nodded. We went to one of the restaurants, ordering lunch.
3rd person POV
Alice was positively happy as Rosalie and Alice put the dress into the trunk of the car. Bella had tagged along with Emmett, going home with the guys, which left them girls to go back to the shop and pick up our "special order."
"I can't believe the look Edward had on his face when he saw Bella," Rosalie said.
Alice giggled, jumping up to close the trunk.
"It was totally priceless," Aliced stated.
Rosalie laughed.
"Including the shoe accident," Rosalie said causing Alice to laugh along side her.
Hmm…what's the shoe accident that Rosalie is talking about? I wonder…
Lol Well you'll just have to wait to find out. But I think you guys have some ideas what the "shoe accident." Review and let me know. Meanwhile, I have homework to do and I want to write another chapter of You've Got Mail…and also sleep! Ciao!
Huggles,
