Thank you for your reviews. At first I thought people wont even read my story.


Chapter 4

One month ago Mrs. Goff told me that I would be heading to Spain. Freaking Spain! I didn't email Rosalie, I dint know what to say. Angela was happy for me. Alice on the other hand wasn't okay with it at first but then she came around.

Flashback

Just call her. I'm sure she will be happy for you. After a couple of minutes convincing myself to call Alice, I grabbed my IPhone and dialled her number.

"Hello"

"Hey Alice. It's me Bella"

"Oh hey Bella! What's up?"

"Well not much. Umm... I'MGOINGTOSPAIN!" I just blurted out.

"Bella? Did you say you are going to Spain?"

"Yes"

"How? When? Why?"

"In a month. It's this exchange program"

"How long?"

"Well..."

"Bella! How long?"

"Three months." She just hung up on me. Well i think she needs time to process the information. I would need time if my best friends well to another country for 3 months.

Ten minutes latter there was a loud bang on the front door. Oh dear. I was at the top of the stairs when Matt opened the door.

"ISABELLA MARIE SWAN! GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" trust me you don't want to deal with upset/angry/moody Alice. It's bad. I just walked down the stairs slowly.

"Bella. How could you do this to me? You are leaving me for 3 months to go to another country. It's ridiculous"

"I'm sorry Alice. I know it's..."

"I don't want to hear any excuses Missy!"

"Alice, just listen!" she didn't say anything so I continued "Alice I want to go. I always wanted to go to Spain. And its three months away from people from school. Of course I will miss you and I promise to call everyday and tell you what is going on and you can talk about Jasper as much as you like." The angry look on her face was slowly softening up. I knew mentioning Jasper would do the trick.

Alice is okay with me leaving but now she decided to pack my bags because "my fashion sense is...well there isn't one" she said. Good God, 6 bags of 'necessities', she is official a control freak.

I would be leaving tomorrow morning so Alice is sleeping over tonight. I was planning to trick her somehow. I'm not taking 6 bags with me. Rosalie will think I'm crazy. Luckily for me Alice said she needed to head home and will be back in an hour. Bingo. I took out my red bag from the back of the closet and packed my own luggage. I checked the time almost every 5 minutes. When I finished I told Matt my plan. Tomorrow when he is taking me to the airport, he is too put all the bags in the car to fool Alice and then take 6 of them back home. Alice won't be coming to the airport since she has school. I feel like an evil genius.

When Alice came back I was in the kitchen making dinner.

"Hey Alice"

"Hey Bella. It smells good. What are you making?"

"Pasta."

"Yum. Is it ready?"

"Five more minutes. Why don't you pick out a movie we can watch?"

"Sure. Good idea"

While I finished making dinner, Alice shouted out movie titles. I rely didn't mind as long as it was something relaxing. Romantic comedies are my favourite. We ended up watching Confessions of a Shopaholic. That would be Alice if she didn't have a very successful doctor as a father and an architect as a mother.

When it was late enough for bed, we headed to my room. I had a massive bed. It could fit 3 people easily. We got ready for bed and climbed onto it. Alice kept talking the entire time. I would miss her so much. I am very thankful to whoever invented the marvellous technology of toady.

I woke up very exited the next morning. Alice was still sleeping, so i got up quietly and went down stairs to make some breakfast. Dad was already there having coffee and reading the news paper.

"Morning Bells. How did you sleep?"

"Fine thank you"

"You seem very excited" he said smiling.

"I am. I'M GOING TO SPAIN!" He just laughed at me. I put some cereal into a bowl with some milk and sat down.

"Where is Alice? I thought she slept over."

"She did. I just didn't want to wake her"

"I'm sure she would to spend time with you before you leave". I didn't say anything since it's not polite to talk with your mouth full. After I finished eating I went upstairs to wake Alice up.

"ALICE! Wake up!"

"Hmmm... Jasper" she mumbled in her sleep.

"No Alice. It's Bella. Now wake up. I have to get ready"

"OMG you are leaving today" she jumped out of bed.

"Yes. I am leaving today"

"Bella I am going to miss you so much" she hugged me.

"I am going to miss you too Alice. I promise to call all the time."

"You better" she gave me a serious-Alice-look. I just laughed and hugged her back.

I got ready while Alice kept talking about various things. She talks a lot but that's one of the things I love about Alice. She is herself around anyone, she doesn't care what people think about her and she will tell you to your face if she doesn't like you. Alice likes gossip, but she won't bitch about anyone behind their back.

Everything was set to go. We walked to the driveway, where Matt was waiting for me, he gave me a knowing look...it was about the bags. I just smiled back. Oh yeah, I tricked Alice. This is going on my CV.

Alice had to go to school, so she couldn't come to the airport with me. We said our goodbyes and i watched her get into the car and drive off.

Matt took me to the airport. He hugged me goodbye and got one red bag from the car. "Have fun!"

"I will. Thanks" I said, taking the bag from him. I waved goodbye and went to check in.

I was waiting in line to go through security, when someone tapped me on the shoulder.


Who do you think tapped Bella on the shoulder? I am sorry to leave it here but I was very tempted to.
