A/N: Sooooo sorry that you guys had to wait so long for an update! :( My creativity has been..well, limited - to say the least. But your reviews motivated me to at least type up this chapter. I'm sorry it's short, but I hope you guys like it.
Bella felt a small hand cup her right cheek before soft lips descended upon her's. The kiss was slow and gentle like any first kiss should be, and yet it was so different from any of the other first kisses Bella had shared. Bella brought her hands to the the other's hips; gently pulling her closer. Their lips briefly parted, and a soft sigh fell from Bella's lips as the other spoke. "Bella..." The soft, feminine voice whispered to her. It was a voice Bella easily recognized; however, she could not place a name or a face. Bella opened her eyes, and was instantly met with intense, golden-colored irises. But as soon as she saw them they were gone, along with the mysterious girl she had been kissing only seconds ago. "Wake up."
"Bella, wake up. Angela will be getting in soon." A masculine voice informed the sleepy brunette. She groaned in annoyance as her mind left the dreamland and entered back into reality. Bella had been in Forks for a little over a month now, and she was in need of her Maid of Honor. She needed Angela to help her with nerves as well as the dress and many other things. Bella forced open her brown optics and peered up at her fiance who's emerald eyes sparkled with happiness. He leaned forward, placing a gentle kiss to her forehead; his lips rough against her skin and nothing like the soft lips she remembered from her dream. "I'm sure Rosalie will be here to pick you up in a little bit, you'd better hurry so you don't have to keep her waiting."
"No, I'm going with Alice. Rose had to do something today. I think she's having another hormone treatment." A small frown stretched over Bella's lips at the thought. Rosalie wanted nothing more than to be a mother, and it seemed that no matter what she did..it never worked out. Bella's eyes shifted back to Edward; the bright expression that had at first been on his face was whipped clear and replaced with a mixture of annoyance, anger, and sadness. Bella knew why. Though she had talked to him about it when they first arrived, Edward had not changed much, and still resented Alice because of his homophobia.
"Oh, well..do you want me to go with you?" He asked, a small, forced smile appearing.
"No, no. You have to do some things with Emmett don't you?" His smile fell once again. Edward grumbled quietly. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get ready to pick of my Maid of Honor." Edward nodded his head solemnly then began to head towards the door, as he opened it, he turned back to face Bella.
"I love you."
"Yeah," Bella replied softly. "I know. Love you, too." At the three small words, Edward's eyes lit up and he beamed at Bella before leaving the room and heading down stairs.
Bella dressed quickly, and before long there was a knock on the door. Before she could answer, the person on the other side turned the handle and strolled inside. The short, pixie-looking girl Bella had come to love as one of her closest and best friends came into view. She smiled her usual, dazzling smile that made Bella's heart melt. "Morning, Bella." Alice Cullen said in her bell-like voice. Bella offered a soft hey before she reached for her dull blue sweatshirt and pulled it on. Her brown eyes shifted towards Alice's golden orbs. So familiar, her subconscious seemed to murmur to her, but she quickly pushed it to the side. Her eyes drifted lower, taking in her outfit silently. "Like what you see?" Alice asked teasingly; something that Bella had grown used to. Alice was a flirt; no one could deny it. A light blush stretched over Bella's cheeks, and Alice laughed at her reaction. "You really are adorable when you blush, Bells. It makes you seem like you're a teenager." Bella rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue at the pixie.
"Yeah, yeah. Lets go. Her have a little over an hour before Ange arrives in Seattle, so we have just enough time to get there, find decent parking, and get inside before she lands."
"Decent parking? In a Seattle Airport?" Alice rose an eyebrow in a questioning manner as a small smirk appeared on her lips.
"Shush. Lets go."
"So how long have you and Angela been friends?" Alice asked, her golden eyes shifting towards Bella who sat in the passenger seat.
"Well our moms were friends, so naturally when they spent time together so did we." The pixie nodded her head. "So we have pretty much known each other our whole lives." Bella's eyes fell closed, and she leaned her head back to rest. "Mm...She's like the sister I always wanted but never got."
A small, forced smile stretched over Alice's lips. "Yeah? Well you're about to gain two sister..." The younger of the female's released a soft, dry laugh. Bella's eyes opened and she glanced towards Alice who stared hard at the road before her. Though they had known each other for such a short amount of time, Bella could tell when something was bothering Alice. It was like a sixth sense almost. Bella wanted to voice her concern and ask what was bothering her, but she knew better. She knew Alice would never tell her. Alice wasn't the type to burden people with her own problems. Bella tilted her head back once again; releasing a small sigh as her eyes fell closed once again.
With Alice's speeding and excellent driving, the two girls arrived at the Seattle Airport in record time which was lucky for them considering the amount of time they wasted trying to find a parking spot. Once parked, Bella and Alice ventured into the crowded airport. Bella's eyes scanned around, attempting to find the arrivals board; once she had she began to look for gate twelve; hoping that Angela would be there when they found it.
Sure enough, when gate twelve came into view, so did Bella's best friend and Maid of Honor. Bella's brown eyes met with Angela's hazel ones, and instantly a smile broke out on both of their faces. "Isabella Marie Swan!" Angela hollered over the crowd, causing Bella to flinch at the sound of her full name. Angela pushed up the the rim of her glasses before lifting up her carry-on luggage, and moving towards Bella and Alice. As soon as she was in hugging distance, Angela threw her arms around Bella; pulling her into a tight hug that Bella easily returned. When they broke apart, Angela's eyes shifted towards the pixie-like girl who stood exactly seven inches shorter than herself. Angela rose an eyebrow then grinned as recognition crossed over her features. "Alice, right? Edward's baby sister?"
Now it was Alice's turn to flinch; she then scrunched her nose in a manner that Bella found absolutely adorable. "I'm only a few years younger than him." She replied quickly.
Angela nodded her head. "Right...You're what..twelve?" Alice stuck out her tongue.
"Oh har har. Make fun of the short one."
"Nonsense!" Angela exclaimed, "I'll make fun of Bella, too." A sly grin appeared on the girl's lips as she let her eyes drift to Bella who's eyes widened and smile fell. Alice laughed at the statement as well as the reaction it received from Bella. It was obvious that Angela and Alice would get along great with each other, and for that Bella was truly thankful. In fact, it had been one of the things Bella feared most the whole week before Angela had arrived. "C'mon, lets get out of here. All I've had today is shitty airport food, and I'm starved."
