Thanks SO much to everyone who reviewed, favorite, and alerted this story. I made me really happy. Oh, and just in case you haven't seen a walk to remember, there are kind of some spoilers.
And of course, I don't own twilight. :(
Chapter 3
I had already called Alice cell phone 5 times. Each time I left practically the same message. "Hey Alice, please pick up the phone! I'm really sorry about what I said. If you say your psychic than I believe you. Please, I'll do whatever you want me to do, just forgive me…please?"
It started to get late so I went downstairs to fix dinner. I got out everything I needed to make pasta when Emmett came in.
"What's for dinner, lil' sis?"
"Spaghetti" I sighed.
"Uh-oh. What's wrong?"
"Why do you assume some things wrong? You know what they say about assuming? You make an ass out of you and me!" I said completely serious.
He started laughing at me. Why is it that everything I do gets laughed at? "Come on, Bells. You're my sister. I know when something's up." He told me.
"Fine. Alice told me she had these 'feelings' and I kinds-sort of-maybe made fun of her" I said innocently. He looked at me like you look at a child when they've done something wrong. "Rose told me about her 'feelings' she said that she was really good at predicting when something was going to happen. Did you at least apologize?" he asked me.
"I called her cell phone 5 times! She won't answer." I was practically whining.
"Try her house phone?"
"I don't have that number."
"Phone book, duh!" he laughed.
"Since when do you know so much?" He was never the kind of person to know what to do. He was the one asking everyone else for advice. "I've done a lot of apologizing." He smiled.
"I can believe that." I said while grabbing the phone book.
I was pretty much finished with dinner now, so I grabbed the phone and told Emmet I was going upstairs. I sat down on my bed and started looking through the phone book. I got to the name 'Cullen' and found out there were 5 in Washington (a/n: I just did a random number.) None of the Cullen's listed had a Forks address. I picked the one closest to Forks and hoped it was the right number.
It rang three times before a velvety voice answered. "Hello?" he sounded annoyed, like he had just been pulled from something very important.
"Um, yeah. Is Alice there?"
He waited a minute before he answered. It made me think none of the Cullen's wanted to talk to me. What if Alice told Edward that I upset her and now he won't talk to me either! "Bella?" his smooth velvet voice broke my thoughts.
"Yes?"
"It's Edward. What are you doing?"
"Ugh, trying to apologize to Alice."
"Oh, right. I'll get her." I heard Alice name being called and an annoyed pixie voice responding.
"Telephone." He told her.
"Hello?" The pixie's voice said in fake enthusiastic voice.
"Hey Alice!"
"What." Was her amazing response.
"Listen, Alice. I'm really sorry. I never meant to hurt your feelings or anything. I'll do whatever you want, just forgive me." I pleaded.
"Anything?" she asked skeptically.
"Anything." I clarified.
"Let me give you a makeover."
"Ugh……okay." I sighed. If it got her to forgive me than it was worth it.
"Yay! Okay, tomorrows Friday. So you can come over after school and spend the night. We can ask Rose too. We can have a girls night! Then we can go shopping in the morning!!!" She rambled in the highest, most bell-like voice I had ever heard.
"Sounds good. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Bye!"
"Bye! Oh, and Bella, I was never really mad at you. My phone was dead. I just got your messages right before you called." She laughed.
Just when I was about to respond she hung up. Evil Pixie.
Next day (after school)
I had gotten my bag ready with all of my clothes I would need for going to Alice's. I was waiting for her to pick me up since I didn't know where she lived, and she insisted she come get me.
I heard the doorbell ring and walked carefully down the steps. I opened the door and didn't see who I was expecting. I saw the Greek god that was Edward.
"Hey! Hope you don't mind. Alice said she had something she had to do, and asked if I could come get you instead."
"No, it's fine." I shook my head like a dog getting out of the water. I blushed after I realized how I must have looked and he smiled that crooked smile that I love.
He held the door for me as I walked out of the house and waited by my side as I locked the door. It had just been raining- as usual- so the grounds were still wet. I slipped and fell on the way to his car. He ran to my side and helped me up like the gentlemen I assumed he was.
"Thanks" I looked away to hide my embarrassment and my blush.
"Are you okay?" he moved his body so that I was looking at him.
"Yeah, lets go."
He chuckled and opened the door to his silver Volvo for me. I thanked him and waited until while he got in the car. We sat in comfortable silence for a while, until he spoke.
"How about we play a game?"
"What kind of game?" I asked him worriedly.
"20 questions."
"sure, why not….but no embarrassing questions."
"Okay. First question. What's your favorite flower?"
"What? What kind of question is that?" I laughed.
"Come on. Just answer it."
"Freesia."
The questions continued like this – they seemed worthless, but important to him- until we got to his house. It was huge, with windows everywhere. It was right next to a lake with what looked like a garden path down to a dock.
He got my bag and opened the door for me. I got out and we walked to the door. When we walked in Alice came bounding down the stairs.
"Bella! Come on, we're all ready for your makeover." She practically screamed. She grabbed my arm and started pulling me up the stairs.
I told Edward thanks picking me up the best I could while running up the steps. She pulled me into her room and in a chair. Her room was huge. The walls were a bright white. There was a large hot pink bed in the middle of one of the walls and a zebra couch on the other. At the center of the ceiling there was a large black chandelier with twinkling lights.
She started on my make-up, but wouldn't let me watch. She claimed that she wanted me to be completely surprised at how hot I looked.
"So, did you two have fun on your little car ride over?" Alice asked me.
"ALICE! You never had anything to do, did you?"
"Not really. But you had fun, didn't you?" she smiled.
"Oh yeah. Falling on my butt and completely embarrassing myself in front of the most gourgous man I have ever seen was the most fun I have ever had." I told her sarcastically.
"EEEEP! SO YOU DO LIKE MY BROTHER!!!!" She screamed. I jumped up and covered her mouth with my hand and hoped Edward didn't hear her.
"Gosh, Alice. Do you want everyone to find out?"
"He can't hear us. These walls are sound proof." She tapped the walls with her hand.
I rolled my eyes at her. "So are you going to tell him?"
"No, I told you, I've only know him for a couple of days. Are you almost done?"
"Yeah, just go put those clothes on." She pointed to the clothes laying on her bed as she walked out of the room and shut the door.
I put on the clothes and told Alice she could come back in. She walked me over to the mirror and I looked at myself. It didn't look like me. This girl was unbelievably beautiful. My eyes were smokey and my hair was curled into beautiful waves. I was wearing dark straight leg jeans and a long sleeved grey striped shirt with a black vest. Then she handed me the death traps she called heels. They were pointy and bright red.
"Wow Alice. I look…."
"Hot!" I heard Rosalie say from the doorway.
I turned around and saw her smiling at me. I gave her an embarrassed smile as I felt the blush rush to my cheeks.
"Come on, let's go show everyone!" Alice said as she grabbed my hand to pull me out of her room.
I stopped her, realizing who everyone was. "Alice, I thought this was something that only us girls were doing! Now you want to show everybody, including Edward." I whispered the last part.
"You should want to show everybody! You look beautiful. I mean you were beautiful before, but now you're HOT!" Rose chimed in.
"No, I won't go down there. Besides, in these shoes I'll fall and break my neck. You saw how clumsy I am." I was trying to think of more reasons of why I couldn't go downstairs and show everybody.
"Fine, come on." She started walking back to her room. YES! Victory! Or so I thought.
"EVERYBODY COME HERE!!!" Rose and Alice yelled at the same time. I spun around to look at them. Bad move, when trying to spin in pumps I fell. I think I might have twisted my ankle. And now everybody in the house was approaching Alice room, with me on the floor clutching my ankle. Great.
"Oh my gosh! What happened?" a beautiful woman with light brown hair and fair skin asked. I assumed she was Esme. Edward was at the door next. I blushed an even deeper shade of red, if that were possible.
"Nothing. I just fell. It's fine." I said and tried to get up. I didn't succeed. Edward came over to help me. "I think I sprained it."
"Here let me help you." He said and he scooped me up into his arms and started walking towards the door.
"Wait, no! I'm too heavy." He kept walking to the door with a smirk on his face. "Really, I can walk. Put me down."
"No dear, really you should stay off your foot. Edward, take her downstairs and get her on the couch. Alice honey, get her some ice." said, pointed to each person she addressed. They nodded and did as they were told.
came back into the living room with Alice. She handed me the ice pack and I put it on my ankle that was beginning to swell. Edwards kept looking at me, I really wanted to know why and what he was thinking. I wish I could read minds.
"Bella, would you like us to take you to the hospital to get your foot looked at? Or we can wait here, my husband Carlisle will be here shortly." Mrs. Cullen told me.
"No hospitals please."
"Okay honey. I'll go get you some Advil until he gets here." She smiled at me.
"Thank you Mrs. Cullen."
"Please, call me Esme."
When , or as he asked me to call him, Carlisle got home he confirmed that my ankle was sprained. He wrapped my foot up and gave me a pair of crutches to use. Maybe Alice won't make me wear heels anymore!!!
Alice brought down my pajamas for me and we decided to watch a movie. Alice picked A Walk to Remember and Rose and I agreed. I had forgotten how much I loved this movie. We all started crying when she told Landon that she had Leukemia. Then we cried even harder when they got married and worse when she died.
Edward walked in on us when the movies credits were rolling. He looked awkward being in a room with three crying girls.
"T-that was s-so s-s-sad!" Alice cried.
"I kn-know" Rose said.
"Why do you cry every time if you know what happens?" Edward asked.
"Good point" I said while I was wiping my eyes.
"I'm tired lets go to bed." Rose said as she was getting up.
"Bella, can you get up the stairs? If you can't we can sleep down here." Alice asked concerned.
"Yea. No problem." I got up and grabed my crutches and made my way towards the steps when a pair of strong arms picked me up bridal style. I yelped in shock witch made Edward laugh and me blush.
"Is this a thing you do, carrying girls all around your house?" I asked him. I already knew that he wouldn't put me down, he was to stubborn.
"Just the ones I like." He gave me his crooked smile. It could mean anything. He could mean he likes me as just a friend. Why do I let Alice get in my head? I heard a chorus of 'awws' coming from the banister and looked up to see Rose, Alice, and Esme looking down at us. I blushed and Edward laughed.
Edward set me down in Alice room and told us all goodnight. Alice insisted that I take her bed because of my ankle.
"Get a good night's sleep girls, because we're getting up bright and early to go shopping tomorrow!" Alice informed us as we got into bed.
