Oh my gosh! I want to say thank you to all my reviewers! You are awesome! I swear, I almost cried. I'm sorry for not telling you thank you personally but my computer is really slow and by the time I get to pushing send, it freezes on me. I'll start posting em on my A/N. So head's up!!

Also, I was rereading my last chapter and has anyone wondered where Esme and Carlisle went? I have. They're there in chapter five but not six so I decided to give them a date of their own and they are now somewhere in France. But they will be coming back soon.

Enjoy.

Bella was playing poker with Emmet and Jasper ,and losing if she might add, when Alice and Rosalie arrived.

"Hey. Where's Edward?" Bella asked, putting her cards down and standing up.

"Jeez. Nice to see you too." Rosalie smirked.

Bella flushed pink. "Sorry. How was your day?"

"Cut the crap, Bella." Rosalie smiled. "We need to get you transformed."

Bella's expression turned weary. Alice was staring her up and down. "Not bad."

Bella gave her a confused look.

Alice explained. "Your outfit. Not bad. Though, I have blue pumps that would look better than those dreadful things people call shoes." Alice finished looking at Bella's feet. "But never mind! You two." She pointed to Emmet and Jasper. "Follow."

Alice grabbed Bella's arm and started dragging her up the stairs to her bathroom with Rosalie and the guys close behind. Alice sat Bella down in a salon chair in front of her mirror and spun the chair so that Bella was higher from the ground.

"What are you doing?" Bella asked in horror.

"Making you a woman." Rosalie grinned evilly, snipping scissors in the air.

"What?!" Emmet joked. "Bella's a man?"

Bella blushed. "Shut up, Emmet!"

"No, she is not a man, Emmet." Rosalie sighed. "And you wont be either if you don't behave." She snipped the scissors lower, her smile widening.

"All right Bella." Alice grabbed Bella's hair. "Have you taken a shower today?"

"Umm.." Bella didn't like talking about her hygiene with Emmet and Jasper there. "No. I was going to tonight."

"Ok. Jasper, Emmet. Out. Bella, shower." Alice pushed the guys out of the bathroom. "We'll need you in a little bit though so don't go far!"

Bella stared at Rosalie. "What are you doing to me?"

"Surprise, Bella. It's a surprise."

Bella just grunted and went to the shower. "Aren't you guys going to give me some privacy?" She asked looking at Alice and Rosalie who were still in the restroom.

"Bella, we're all women and I'm pretty sure we've all got the same assets. Besides, we've got to set up some things in here before you get out." Alice said as she started pulling things out of cabinets.

Bella just sighed, slightly uncomfortable but started to strip. The hot water did wonders for her nerves. What is goin g on? Is it the dinner? That would explain why Edward's gone but must Alice go all out? Bella sighed again and started washing her hair. The shampoo bottle read something in a foreign language.

"You know, Alice, I bet Suave works just the same." Bella joked, knowing full well how irritated Alice would be with her.

"Haha, Bella. Very funny. Might I inform you that nowhere in this household will you find such simple brands. Hair should not be taken lightly. Am I right Rose?"

Rose nodded her head in agreement. "She's right, Bella."

Oh crap. Now Bella was going to get a lecture on hair products. Why did she have to open her mouth?

"Hair is one of the many wonderful things about women as well as men."

"Yeah, because you have so much of it." Rosalie joked, grabbing a bottle from under the cabinet.

Alice ignored her but Bella laughed.

"It has texture, bounce, color-"

Bella tried humming "Blaze of Glory" to block out the noise. Unfortunately, this just made Alice talk louder. "By using the right shampoo, your hair can glow!"

Bella hummed louder and rinsed her hair out.

"Are you listening to me, Bella?!" Alice pulled out the blowdryer and brush.

When you're brought into this world
they say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win

"Bella!"

Well they tell me that I'm wanted
I'm a wanted man I'm a cold-

"Bella!"

Mr catch me if you can!
I'm going down in a blaze of glory!

Alice looked at Rosalie before moving. She gracefully made her way to the toilet and flushed. The Cullen's never knew how colorful Bella's vocabulary was.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO Edward Prepares OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Edward had changed into his tux in the garage and then drove his Volvo to the meadow to set up. He brought little lights to hang from the trees, making sure that they hung perfectly from the branches. He placed the table at the edge of the pond and set the Chinese food he bought from Port Angeles on top. Of course, the Chinese food was for Bella. Edward had already hunted.

Two blankets were set off to the side, one to lie on and one to cover up. Edward made sure that everything was in order when Bella arrived. He walked over to the stereo he had put by the tree and pushed play, allowing soft music to fill the air.

This night was going to be perfect.

"One hour left people! Let's move it!" Alice screamed as she started pulling out the makeup. Bella was turned away from the mirror and had no idea what she looked like.

Emmet was holding a curling iron above Bella's head, her hair twisting in odd angles around it, Jasper was doing the same with another at the other side of Bella's head, and Rosalie was searching for shoes to go with the dress.

Alice chose for Bella to wear the red, silk gown they had chosen saying something like, "It'll go with the setting better."

Bella had no idea why Jasper and Emmet were helping with her "transformation." But they were, against their will, and having no idea what they were doing.

"Is the hair supposed to look bent?" Emmet asked Alice as she applied powder on Bella's face.

"No, Emmet. Redo it and try to get closer to the roots."

Emmet did as he was told.

"Ouch!" Bella screamed as she felt a burning, hot curling iron on her scalp. "What the heck?!"

"Bella!" Alice shouted as the eye liner she was holding went across Bella's forehead.

"Sorry." Emmet muttered and then started laughing. "Haha. You look like that actor in Stargate."

Bella shot daggers at him. Alice just shook her head at Emmet's stupidity and gently wiped the eyeliner off.

"Only more feminine and much more pretty. And, yeah." Emmet turned his attention back on her hair.

"I've got them!" Rosalie returned to the restroom carrying creamy colored flatts. "We all know you can't walk in heels." Bella smiled, truly grateful for the comfortable shoe wear.

"Are we almost done here?" She asked after another half hour of accidental burns, hair tugging, and different variations of clown faces (Alice's version of makeup... too much.) Alice finally settled on a look that suited them both fine. Mascara, eyeliner on the top lids, powder, and a plum colored lip gloss.

"Your natural blush will take care of Clinique." Alice smiled and sure enough, a faint blush appeared on Bella's cheeks.

"Almost." Emmet answered Bella. He had, surprisingly, become very involved in this make over process and in result, kicked Jasper out of hair duty. "You're not doing it right." Was his only explanation to a very bemused Jasper.

"Just one more- ha!" Emmet threw the curling iron on the counter. "Perfection!"

Bella looked at Jasper who was chuckling and then at Rosalie. "I've married an idiot." Rosalie feigned sadness. "Who's lost all masculinity."

Alice laughed. "Keep it up, Emmet, and I'll make you my personal hair stylist."

Emmet scrunched his eyes and frowned. "Come on, Jasper. Let's go watch Sports Center." He stalked out of the bathroom with his muscles flexing.

Jasper just sighed and shook his head. "You look beautiful, Bella. We'll be waiting to see the end result." He gave Alice a kiss. "Off to go reclaim my manhood."

Alice giggled. "I'll help you find it." She whispered in his ear, too low for Bella to hear.

Jasper smiled mischievously. "I'll hold you to that." And he went to join Emmet.

"All righty." Alice smiled and turned back to Bella. She stared at her for a good two minutes before turning to Rosalie. "Can you do something with her hair? I've got to find something."

Rosalie nodded and Alice left the room to go to her closet. Rosalie went to stand behind Bella's chair. "Are you exited?" She asked as she started to rummage through drawers.

"Nervous exited as in I have no idea what the big deal is about this dinner. Is it going to be like this every time?"

Rosalie chuckled and pulled out a clip. "With Alice, yes." She took hold of Bella's hair, expertly twisted it and place the clip in. "There you go."

Bella went to turn around but Rosalie grabbed her arm. "Nice try. Let's get you to Alice's room." She lead Bella to the bedroom where Alice await with a light colored shawl.

"It's to keep you warm when Edward can't" Alice smirked and wrapped the shawl loosely against Bella. "There." She stood back with Rosalie and they both looked at Bella with odd expressions. It was a look between pride, joy, and accomplishment.

Bella squirmed under the attention, uncomfortable. "Can I look?" Alice just nodded and Bella turned to look at herself through the full length mirror... and gasped.

Bella didn't recognize herself. Well, except for that dumbfounded expression she wore and had seen too many times before to not recognize but besides that, she was a stranger to herself. The dress, as before, provided her with cleavage she was unfamiliar with and flowed around her feet that were wearing the flatts Rosalie had chosen. Bella's makeup was simple yet elegant. Her hair was curled and clipped on top of her head, a few stray hairs falling to her shoulders, framing her face. The shawl was wrapped around her shoulders, loosely, and showed some skin, the rest a mystery.

All in all, Bella actually looked pretty. She even may go as far as beautiful. But what was even more amazing was that she felt sexy. Must be the silk. She thought as Bella felt the material around her thighs. Yep, it's the silk.

"Well?" Alice asked, anxious.

Bella realized that she had been staring at herself for a few good minutes and snapped out of it. "I– wow." Was all she could bring herself to say.

"I know." Alice chirped. "Now let's go show the guys. You only have fifteen minutes."

Bella gracefully, repeat gracefully, made her way down the stairs. Wow. She thought at her lack of falls. Reality wasn't that sweet though and let itself remind Bella as she found herself tripping over a rug. Two arms shot out and grabbed her by the waist.

"Jeez. And you almost had it." Emmet's booming laugh echoed throughout the house.

Bella just grunted.

"Wow." Jasper breathed. "You look gorgeous, Bella." He smiled and because of his amazing gift, Bella found herself stress free and smiling back.

"You do." Emmet's eyes twinkled.

"Ok. We can all gather around the campfire another time." Bella joked as she felt herself becoming yet once again uncomfortable by the attention.

"You're right." Alice became serious. "Let's get you going." She grabbed Bella's arm and led her to the door. "You coming, Rose?"

Rosalie was cuddled into Emmet's side. "Nope. I think I'm going to take a break." She looked at Bella. "Good luck and have fun."

"Think I'll might choke on my food?" Bella joked again. Damn mouth. Always talks when I get worked up. She looked at the Cullen's in front of her. "Thank you. Even if I do think you went overboard for a date, the thought was generous."

Alice smiled and started pulling on her arm again. They got in Alice's Porsche and she started driving. It was only then that Bella had no idea where she was going. "Where do you plan on taking me?"

Alice just grinned and continued to drive.

I know, it's a major cliffy. The worst I've ever done and this chapter was mostly like a filler. A necessary filler in my eyes and hopefully you'll see why too. I plan on having another chapter up tonight and if I don't then there will be one up tomorrow. The 'occasion' cannot hold off anymore.

I'm making this sound major, and it is, but my fic is not ending anytime soon rest assured. I'm sorry, but I'm having too much fun. I may even start on an all human Twilight fic soon. Maybe but this is my first priority right now and a damn good one!!

All righty, I'm done with my ramblings and on to writing my next chappie!
