Chapter three.

BPOV

I was swimming in black. I was struggling with consciousness when I tasted a nasty flavored liquid being poured into my mouth. I coughed and awoke with a fright.

"Oh, Alice. Oh, these silly costumes."

I continued to pant and I just couldn't stop coughing.

"Just a little fainting spell, love, that's all."

Alice caressed my hair and handed me a glass of water. Then Quil, the manager, pushed through the crowd and yelled at the girls.

"All right, you girls, get back out front and make those gents thirsty," he then looked toward Alice with a glare, "Problems?"

Alice scowled, I knew she strongly disliked Quil, "Nothing for you to be worrying about."

"Don't just stand there. Go!" I looked toward Emmet and placed a hand on his arm, my silent thanks as he walked away. I then continued to pant and cough. My energy was gone so I slowly closed my eyes and rested.

I was awoken a few minutes later and then started to get into my dress. I had to look appropriate for the Duke.

"That twinkle-toes Duke has really taken the bait, girl. With a patron like him, you could be the next Sarah Bernhardt."

Alice always had high hopes for me, she didn't think I belonged here.

"Oh, Alice, do you really think I could be like the great Sarah?"

She paused from tying my dress, "Why not? You've got the talent. You hook that Duke, and you'll be lighting up the great stages of Europe."

She smiled and then continued to tie my dress.

"I'm going to be a real actress, Alice. A great actress. I'm going to fly away from here."

I looked at the delicate bird hanging in it's cage. Alice and Jasper had bought it for me when I turned 17, "Oh yes we can fly, fly away from here!"

Jasper walked into the room and gave Alice a peck on the cheek, "Duckling, is everything all right?"

"Oh, yes. Of course Jasper," I was still panting but it was more due to the fact that the dress was tight and I was unable to breath.

"Oh, thank goodness. You certainly weaved your magic with that duke on the dance floor."

I smiled Jasper was being to kind. I didn't even have to do much.

"How do I look?"

"Oh, my little strawberry! How could he possibly resist from gobbling you up?"

He took Alice's hand and began to dance around the room with her. Their love was well known. You could see it in the way they looked at each other.

"Everything is going so well!"

Sorry that it is so short :( I didn't really know what to do here cause so far everything had been in Edward's point of view. The next chapter is almost done so it should be up soon :)
