Alice was like a predator ripping through my closet. I know wrong analogy to use but it's what it looked like. She pulled anything out that caught her attention and tossed it gracefully into the pile. I had lied earlier and she clearly realized that. I didn't have many summer clothes left from phoenix, in fact they were left in phoenix and I had no idea what Renee did with them.

The only clothes I had now were all for cold and rainy weather. The color palette bothered her too.

"Don't you have anything pink or purple?" she asked. "All I've seen are brown, more brown, green, and black. You don't even have blue, which is Edward's favorite color on you." She complained.

I shrugged and I could tell she was frustrated. I sat on the bed while she rummaged through more drawers.

"Now this is lovely." She said holding up a rose pink sweater.

"Um that's Renee's." I informed her confused myself. "What is that doing here?" I wondered.

"I don't know." She said. "But I'm sure she wont mind if you borrow it. Now will she?" Alice said with her mocking smirk.

"Now that I've seen this I think I have a good idea of what I get to buy you." She said.

"Alice." I moaned dragging her name out in syllables. "You don't have to get me anything. You know I don't like presents."

"Bella you agreed to one present and that is what you will get. I've never seen someone hate to get presents." She mumbled to herself.

I rolled my eyes and lay back on the bed.

"Where is your suitcase?" She asked me.

"In the hall closet." I answered. "Ill get it."

"No, I will." And before I could protest she was back.

"Bella, I hate to break it to you but you need some new clothes." She informed me. "Unless you want to sweat to death in Florida."

"Alice I don't have time to go shopping." I admitted to her.

"No problem. I have tons of clothes that I bought a while ago and they still have the tags on them."

"I can't take your clothes."

"Bella, consider them hand-me downs. But not the present that will be new." She smiled.

"Ughh Alice, they're not hand-me downs if they were brand new clothes meant for you." I told her.

"Relax, I tried on the clothes and they just don't go with my personality, but they will look great on you, and Edward will love them." She said.

I knew she had just had a vision of Edward seeing me in the clothes, she seemed completely sure.

"You can come to the house tomorrow and I'll have them all set for you. But of coarse you'll have to try them on." She said.

I sighed in defeat and she skipped away happily.

I heard the engine of Charlie's police car in the drive way and sat up.

Alice turned towards me.

"Charlie's home." She said with a smile.

"Great." I mumbled.

The door opened as we…well I walked down the stairs, Alice practically danced.

"Well hello Alice." Charlie said happily. I could tell by his face he was happy that it was Alice coming down the stairs instead of Edward.

"Hello Charlie." Alice said with her best smile.

"What are you two up to?" He asked.

"Packing for Florida." I said.

"Well that's nice of you Alice, to help Bells pack." I rolled my eyes at my dad's nickname for me. He was the only one who ever called me Bells.

"I figured it wouldn't hurt." Alice said.

Alice waited till Charlie walked passed us to nudge me in the arm, giving me the signal to bring up Edward and the trip.

"So dad, I was thinking, it wouldn't be so bad if Edward came with me." I said waiting for his reaction. "Edward would give me and mom some time together and mom hasn't seen him in a while."

Charlie didn't turn purple like I expected. He sat at the table and his forehead creased like he was thinking. Finally he spoke.

"Look Bells I know you and Edward are going good." I flinched hearing Charlie talk about my realationship, definatley awkward.

"Maybe you should just spend some time with your mother." He suggested.

Alice stood at my side perfectly still.

"I know dad, Edward wouldn't even be a problem, he would give me and mom time and mom could get to know Edward better." I suggested with a smile of hope on my face.

"Well…you'll have to ask your mother." Charlie said.

"Thanks dad."

"Don't worry Charlie, Edward will be very polite and will give them their time." She assured him.

Thank god I had Alice she seem to make Charlie less stressed his face loosend as she said this.

"Well Bella, Charlie, I have to go, but ill see you tomorrow, Bella." Alice said.

"Yeah." I replied.

"we'll see you later Alice." Charlie said.

Alice smiled and stepped out the door.
