This chapter is a little fluffy as I wanted to introduce two new characters to you! I bet you can guess who they are! I used the film description of one as I thought it made the character work better =] No shouting at me!! This is my Christmas present to all you lovely people who have been reviewing, those reviews are awesome, I love you guys! Keep it up =] =] =]
I was awoken by Rosalie. She had me by the shoulders and was violently shaking me.
"Rosalie, I have an alarm!" I growled at her and stumbled over to the bathroom. It was locked. I thumped on the door. "ALICE!" I screeched and the door opened.
"Who the hell?" I asked as a girl with a bush of unnatural red hair opened the door.
"Woah! Calm it!" The girl edged nervously around me. I glared at Rosalie.
"Who the hell is she Rose?" Rose shrugged.
"She arrived this morning. Don't ask, I have no idea!" I grabbed some clothes and hurried into the bathroom to change. After dinner last night I had picked out my only pair of designer jeans, which mom's boyfriend Phil had bought me the Christmas before. They were from a designer called "Rock and Republic" and they actually fit real well. I had also picked out a plain white t-shirt and a yellow cardigan. I brushed my teeth and attempted to make my hair sit flat. I was unsuccessful, so I just left it loose. As I came out of the bathroom Alice scurried over to me.
"Are those Rock and Republic jeans?" She asked me and I nodded.
"How the hell do you know that Alice?" She laughed.
"It's a knack!" She grinned impishly at me and I smiled back. "That suits you." She gestured towards my outfit and I smiled gratefully. I picked out a simple pair of black ballerina flats. I sat down on my bed and waited to know what we were waiting for.
"The boys are coming over and then we are going down for breakfast." Rosalie explained and I nodded. Now I understood.
"Right… How long do the boys take to get ready in the morning?" I joked and Rosalie grinned.
"I don't know, but food always gets Emmett out of bed!" I grinned at her.
"I bet you'd know a lot about Emmett in bed!" Rosalie's face flushed red and I grinned. "Just kidding!"
"BELLA!" She shrieked and hit me with a pillow. Alice came over to us.
"Emmett in bed and pillow fights… What the heck are you two talking about?" Rosalie and I glanced at each other.
"Nothing!" We said in unison, and then collapsed in fits of giggles. Alice sighed and went back to whatever she was doing, which looked like online shopping on her BlackBerry. There was a loud knock on the door. Rosalie looked at me which set us off laughing again. We stumbled over to the door and opened it.
"What's so funny?" Jasper asked, grinning when he saw Alice. "Hello honey!" He grabbed her waist and kissed her full on the lips. Alice flushed in embarrassment and delight.
"Now it's my turn!" Emmett boomed and crushed Rosalie to him. Rosalie and I were still laughing which made their kiss seem rather more interesting than expected. I heard Edward's soft chuckle, I hadn't noticed him behind Emmett.
"Do I get a go?" He joked softly, so that no one else would hear. I grinned at him and shrugged.
"If you're sure you can bear it." I snickered and he smiled. "After last night I'm not sure that would be appropriate."
"What about last night?" Emmett turned at my last comment. "Edward, what did you do to Bella last night?" Edward put his hands up in mock defeat.
"Nothing, Em, nothing!"
"I should hope so Edward; I don't want my little brother getting hip action before me!" Emmett laughed his booming laugh again and I flushed scarlet. Edward chuckled at my embarrassment.
"Emmett, breakfast might have finished if we don't hurry." He joked and Emmett turned around faster than I would have thought possible.
"WHAT?! Come, my fair maiden, let's us not starve to death!" Emmett dragged Rosalie down the stairs and she looked back at us, glaring at Edward.
"You'll pay for this!" She laughed as Emmett dragged her down the stairs.
"Coming?" Edward asked me and I nodded. "Alice, Jasper, are you coming?" Alice and Jasper followed us down the stairs with the red-head tailing on silently.
"Who is she?" Edward asked him softly and I shrugged. "There's this new guy in our dorm too, he's giving us the silent treatment, just like her. Maybe they know each other?"
"We'll see soon enough." I pointed out as we had just reached the dining hall. We made our way over to our normal table where Emmett was already scoffing down a large plate of bacon and eggs, with Rosalie looking at him pointedly with a bowl of what looked like Alpen. The red-headed girl form our dorm stopped to talk with a tall guy with long blond hair.
"That's the guy from our dorm." Edward informed me in a low whisper and I nodded.
"Quiet people stick together." I joked, as Edward, Alice, Jasper and I headed up to get some breakfast. I took some white toast and marmite, while Edward took a bowl of cereal and an apple. Alice took some pancakes and syrup and Jasper had a small helping of bacon and some wheat toast. We took our trays back to the table and I was surprised to find that I didn't trip over once. We sat down in the way we sat before, Alice next to Jasper and me next to Edward. We were like three couples. Except only two of the three were actually dating… I flushed at hid my face behind my hair as I buttered my toast.
"What's your first class, Bella?" Alice asked, trying to break through the silence barrier that seemed to be hovering over our table.
"Physics." I muttered. I hated physics; I really didn't see the point of it.
"Same!" Alice squeaked and offered me a high-five. I slapped her hand, almost spilling my drink in the same movement. Luckily Edward caught my drink before it went everywhere.
"I have Physics as well." He smiled at me and I returned the favor. "So does Jasper. I think it's because we're all doing Spanish or something."
"I'm doing German." I informed him. "Maybe because we're all in math set one?" He shrugged.
"Could be, us three are and I take it you are too." He smiled. "You'll be all alone in German!" He realized and I tried to hide my smile at his obvious disappointment that I wasn't doing Spanish. We then lapsed back into silence to finish our food. Once breakfast was over, we departed from the lunch hall and returned to our dorms.
"You and Edward seemed to be getting on well." Rosalie smirked and I rolled my eyes.
"Honestly, Rose, I wouldn't think you noticed! I thought you had been staring into Emmett's eyes the whole time!" I joked and she laughed.
"He has nice eyes!" She said defensively and Alice laughed.
"You are talking about my brother, Rose!" Rosalie flushed deep scarlet. "Hey, that's Bella's job!" The comment made me blush as well and Alice started to laugh. "That's much better."
This is a little shout out to my friends Jo, Kitty, Izzy, April and Mia! I want to wish them a very happy Christmas! Happy Christmas to all my other readers too!!! You guys are awesome!
