I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm so so so so so so so so so so so so so sorry!! I haven't updated in forever! I've just had writers block and been busy and…

I'm so sorry!

PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!

SPARE ME WITH FORGIVING MERCY!

Disclaimer: If I was Stephenie Meyer and owned Twilight, I'd be doing a happy dance right now. But I'm not. So, this is somewhat sad…

"So, you got a plan?" I muttered to Edward as we sat frozen, naked on the display bed.

"One that doesn't involve streaking through the mall?"

I gulped. "Um, yes. Preferably."

"No."

Rosalie ran into the store just then.

"Rosalie?! Where's Renesmee?" I asked, panicking for a moment. She better not have LOST my daughter…

"Relax, Bella, she's with Emmett."

From outside the store I heard Emmett whooping, "Yeah, go Bella! Finally, Edward's getting some! Isn't it better in a public place, brother?" Edward growled slightly, and I clutched his arm tighter.

"Alice, if you would just let-"

"Don't." Her voice was tight and clipped. "Say. Anything."

I winced and curled into Edward. I felt him slide his jeans back on under the blankets, and he helped me into the skirt Alice had stuck me in that morning. Then I shoved my arms through the blouse.

"Ready? Set?" he breathed in my ear.

"For what?" I whispered back.

"RUN!"

We sprang up and bolted out, at a slow pace so the humans wouldn't notice.

"Where are we going?" I asked Edward as we went.

"Bathroom."

'What??!!"

"No, Bella, I'm hiding in the men's room. You're hiding in Build A Bear Workshop."

"Build A Bear Workshop?" I repeated in disbelief.

"Alice won't step foot in there."

"Are you SERIOUS? I watched her have a fight over a pair of shoes with Konishiki in Japan once, but she won't even go to BUILD A BEAR?"

"That's Alice. Go!" Edward pushed me into Build A Bear and kept on running.

I stood in the middle of the place, shocked. Then I figured, hey, if Alice was scared of the place, maybe I should have a weapon or two.

I wandered to the side wall where all the "deflated" animals were. I picked up a pink monkey with hearts all over it. Hey, he was kind of cute!

Then I went to the stuffing machine. The worker looked a bit shocked.

"Er, hi," she said.

"Hi."

There was an awkward silence.

"Um, can you…stuff this…monkey…thing…please?"

"Sure…"

I guess she was shocked by how old I was (how many nineteen year olds come into Build A Bear?), or maybe by my "vampire beauty", I don't know which, because there wasn't any jumping or spinning or anything that I had seen in here before. She just stuffed the monkey, put a heart in, and gave it to me.

Then I went to buy it some clothes. I found a cute green top with some circles and flowers on it and green shorts to match. I got weird stares the entire time.

I named it Lulu. I decided to give it to Renesmee.

Hey, maybe I should let Renesmee make a Build A Bear!

Not because I had a great time or anything…no, because, um…I wanted to give my daughter a good experience! Yeah, that's it!

I pulled out my cell phone and called Rosalie.

"Hello?"

"Rose? Do you still have Renesmee?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Would you mind bringing her down to Build A Bear?" "Hiding from Alice?"

"Yep."

"Let me guess. You made a Build A Bear as a weapon but had so much fun that you want Renesmee to make one to 'have a good experience'."

"Maybe…"

"We're on our way."

I set Lulu in her little cardboard case next to the counter and waited for Rosalie and Renesmee.

My daughter came bouncing through the doorway, Rosalie following behind.

"Renesmee, do you want to make a Build A Bear?"

We ended up spending five hours in the mall, until Alice found us there. Edward had joined during hour 2, and everyone else during hours 3 and 4. Alice stood outside, cowering, until Jasper took her hand and gently coaxed her inside. The staff eventually kicked us out, saying that we weren't leaving enough bears for anyone else.

Then Edward and I took Renesmee home and had "wonderful, mind-blowing sex" in the privacy of our own home.

Tomorrow we would head down to the college office and finalize everything, including our majors and such.

Gulp.

If you're wondering who Konishiki is, he's a Sumo Wrestler in Japan. Here's the link for the Exhibit Sumo Wrestlers I found on the internet. Enjoy!

I'm not too proud of this chapter, I think it's pretty bad, so I'm sorry for making you all suffer.

SO, SO, SO SORRY!!

Please, I know I've been cruel, but show me mercy and review!
