9 Days To Christmas
The next day, Alice and I drove to Port Angeles to shop for everyone's gifts. Well, she'd already bought her presents ages ago, so it was only me who was looking now. We went to the huge department store and looked down every single aisle. I got everyone's presents, and I was content with what i'd managed to find for them.
But there was still one person I hadn't found a gift for: Edward.
A normal wife would get their normal husband a watch, or a tie, or a power tool. Or something else along those lines. But me and Edward weren't your everyday "normal" couple. I knew that Edward would love anything I got him, but it sounded like he'd found something that I'd really like and I wanted to do the same for him. Alice suggested we go to the book store, but I was sure that there wasn't a book Edward hadn't read or didn't own. We went anyway, and I ended up getting Renesemee's gift there. Me and Alice were giggling as we left the store about how fascinating Renesmee would find the books.
We went to a coffee shop and sat at one of the tables. We ordered out coffee, but of course, we didn't drink it.
"I really want to find something... Edward-esque."
"'Edward-esque'?" Alice laughed. "Wow."
I smiled and looked down at my cup. "Have you heard him talking about anything he wants?"
"No. Edward doesn't care what he gets for Christmas, Bella. Really." she assured me.
"Well... what did you get him?" I asked her.
"Shoes." she winked.
I laughed. "Of course."
"Well, you can never have too many pairs of shoes, Bella. He'll love the pair I got." she smiled and threw her full cup of coffee into the nearest garbage.
"Wait a minute..." I said, realizing something. "You can see the future! What do I get him?"
She shook her head. "You haven't decided on anything yet, so there's nothing to see. But I do see that you'll love the gift he gives you."
"What is it, anyway?" I asked, biting my lip.
"Not telling." she said with a smile, getting up. "Come on, let's go somewhere else."
I nodded, standing up and throwing my cup in the trash as well. Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer started blaring over the speakers in the coffee shop, and I heard a few little kids in the corner break out into song. I smiled, following Alice out. I loved Christmas music.
Wait... music.
"Alice, let's go to the music store!" I said, grabbing her arm.
"Hold your horses, Bella. Gosh." she called after me.
Why hadn't I thought about it before? Jeez, I was dumb.
