Shopping Trip And The Letter

(MaggiePoV)

We got in Dad's limo and were ready for our trip."Bella I set up an appointment for you at 4 o'clock; it that ok?"

"Yeah it's fine. I really don't like to shop so I should be done by then."

"How do you not like to shop?" Lola said rudely.

"I just don't, never have never will. That's why I wear so many of my dad's flannel plaid shirts." I think Lola just choked.

"Flannel plaid shirts." She had a disgusted look on her face.

"Yes," She answered slowly "I also will wear his first Forks P.D. jacket to school every day."

"You do know you're going to a uniform school." Lola said in her usual mean voice. It didn't seem to have any effect on her, looks like she has dealt with mean girls before.

"I know that. I will just wear it before school and after school and I'm proud of what Charlie gives me because even if he doesn't show a lot of emotion him giving me stuff shows he cares about me." She said in a powerful voice. "Jake, I think you should grow your hair out again."

"I totally would but it's so difficult for me. It always has to be tied up and out of my face."

"You had long hair?"

"It was really long it went down to a little below my shoulders. All the guys on the rez had hair like that. I sorta miss my long hair."

"I miss it too. I was so disappointed when I saw it had got cut, especially since you weren't talking to me at the time. I was so sad. I went in a mini-zombie period again; I had no one to talk to. It didn't help that both you and Billy were lying to me."

"It was his fault. And I was listening to him so it was serious."

"But Jake why did you lie to me? It wasn't nice." She had a pout on her face.

"You know why. You did meet Paul and the other guys. You know it isn't a good idea to be near Paul when he loses his temper. You saw Emily. Hanging with us has its risks." Jacob said a sad tone in his voice. Odd, I decided. What could that mean; Jacob is friends with drug lords or something.

"I know hanging out with you has its risks, I came to you, remember? And I like hanging out with dangerous people. I think you'd know that."

"Duh, you dated a 'leech'. And said 'leech's' father was your doctor. Crazy much?"

"Of course, but you knew that already."

"What do you mean by leech?"

"According to the legends of my tribe Bella's ex-boyfriend and his family are vampires and male Quileutes can transform into wolves when they hit a certain age, so my great-grandfather made a treaty for them to stay off our land 70 years ago. They may not be vamps but the still can't go on La Push," Lola started laughing at that. "You know just because I'm younger than you doesn't mean I can't break your nose," She held up a finger to stop him. He kept on going. "I don't care if I can't hit girls. I did it to my older sisters all the time."

"We're here." I said.

"Awesome. Jake where do you buy shirts? Where can I buy clothes on a budget?" Bella said quickly.

"I don't know; Rachel, Rebecca, or Billy always bought my clothes. Old Navy, maybe?" He phrased it as a question.

Lola answered Bella's other question, "You could go to Forever 21." Her tone had a snotty edge to it.

"Well, Ms. Pussy where do you and Maggie shop?" Bella said. She was practically begging for a fight.

"Maggie and I shop at Nordstrom's."

"Oh so you shop at the place where all my 'good' clothes came from. Also, where all my shopping nightmares come from."

"Good clothes?" I asked skeptically.

"Clothes my friend approved of; she was a shopping obsessed pixie." Bella explained.

"Oh-kay."

"Let's go shopping." I groaned, so did Jake.

"If you want." Jake said sullenly.

"I don't want to I have to and you need to get at least five shirts. I'll take you hiking this weekend," Then I whispered in his ear. "To phase." We went to Old Navy first for Jake I bought a couple things for me, too. When we got into Forever 21 I bet I looked like a kid in a candy store. That was the most fun I had shopping ever. It was a good thing I had Jake to carry all the bags, even if the women in that store looked like they wanted to lick him. I called Maggie after I was done; it was 3:15 when I called her.

"Hey Maggie, you ready?"

"Almost done all me and Lola have to do is pay for our stuff. We'll meet you outside of Forever 21 in ten minutes." Maggie hung up then. She kept her promise and met us in front of the store ten minutes later. I think she was shocked by how many of my bags Jake was holding.

"You ready for your hair cut Bella?" Lola asked.

"I'm not going to get it cut just colored. I like my long hair."

"I like it, too. It looks really nice with your chocolate brown eyes." Maggie complimented me.

"Thank you, Maggs." She smiled at the nickname. Then she said "We're here." We all got out of the car and she led the way. She went up to the receptionist and told her my name. The receptionist led me to a chair in the back. A minute later a male hairdresser, who I assumed was gay, came up and asked me what I wanted done.

"Could you color my hair red to play up my eyes? And could you not cut it I love my long hair?" I asked him politely.

"I won't cut your hair. It's perfect especially with what I have in mind. Do you care what I do with it?"

"I don't care what you do to it as long as it's not cut or permed." He nodded and started working on my hair. It took about an hour. I spun around and saw my hair I absolutely loved it. "Thank you." I got up and hugged the hairdresser.

I left the back room. "So what do you think?"

Lola snorted and said, "Who are you pretending to be?"

"No one just a new and improved Bella Swan."

Jake sat there taking it in and then smiled my smile. Maggie looked at it and nodded her head in approval.

We back at the house. "Aunt Frannie, we're home." Fran came down the stairs and gasped.

"What do you do to your hair? Whatever you did to it, I love it!" Fran said, her eyes widening, looking a lot like Alice.

"I got it colored and styled. And Charlie would be so proud of me; I'm finally getting over him."

I was picking up the mail. In the mail there was a letter for Carlisle from a man I didn't know. "Carlisle, who is this man and why, is sending you a letter."

"This man was one of my college buddies and he sends me a letter every time we move."

"Can you read the letter to us, please, please, PLEASE?"

"Sure, Alice. Was that really shout worthy though?"

"No Daddy. I'll get everyone down here, even Edward."

"Okay, Alice; if you want to."

"Everyone come down to the living room! Carlisle is going to read us a letter from one of his college buddies." By the time I was finished with the first sentence everyone was down stairs, even Edward. Emmett had to drag him down the stairs.

Carlisle started reading the letter, it said:

Dear Carlisle,

There is a house across from ours for sale. Could you move in because last I heard you had just left Forks? Please, Carlisle. I hope I will see you soon.

Sincerely,

Maxwell Sheffield
