Hey, guys, I am back again. I hope you enjoyed Christmas, and if you don't celebrate it, I hope you had a nice day! Also, happy new year! I already have my new years resolution...put up a burst of chapters for you guys! What are yours? I'd love to know, but if they are too personal, it really does not matter.

Chapter Seven
Gummy Bear Pizza!
I couldn't get Laila's words out of my head! I should of by now, it had been a whole month, but it was like she was still there, dancing around, singing the words. I was wondering, pondering all the time, would Laila be able to get Rose pregnant after I gave birth, (something that still gave me nightmares!), or would Rosalie stay childless for the rest of eternity? Me and Jasper had kept it to ourselves, just in case we disappointed Rosalie, it wouldn't be at all fair. Even though me and Rose were friends again, she still kept a fair distance from me, spending most of her time in Bella and Edward's cottage, reading, or so she said.
I had been reading too, my bedroom was stacked with baby books! I had read hundreds, it was good I had super-power reading abilities, or I never would get through them all, still I didn't know I was following, my pregnancy was like a human one, but I didn't know what my child would be like, I didn't figure it would be like Nessie, because both me and Jasper are 100 percent vampire, but surely Laila would play a part in it? Would she have genie in her? And Laila could be part human...Ugh, this made my head hurt.
I wondered who would cook for the baby? Would it eat human food, if it did, would it be like Nessie, and have the favourite food of my main craving, which was currently rice, Emmett found great fun in this, running around screeching with laughter when he found me in the kitchen at 1 o'clock in the morning, cooking up some rice, he still found it hilarious that I could even stand to eat human food. "It smells like dog-" He sung, before I ran up to him with a sauce pan and hit him over the head, he had played dead, and I had left him there, gone into the living room to watch Kate and Leo with my yummy fluffy dish.
"Alice, I need you!" Bella sings, wandering in to the living room.
"What for?" I ask, sitting up eagerly, I needed to take my mind off of Rosalie and Laila and other pregnancies and yada yada yada...
"When that kid arrives." She declares, poking my tummy, "I want you to be prepared, I obviously couldn't prepare for Nessie, so I am taking an advantage in a pregnancy of my sister and soon to be niece."
I giggle, her cold fingers were tickly. "I am going to teach you how to cook, Alice. I have seen you cook up rice, it's usually underdone or overdone, and your kid can't live on rice, also you cannot order junk food every single night! It's unhealthy."
"OK." I say eagerly, "Teach me! I want to know how to cook. I neeeeeeed to knooooow noooooow-"
"Maybe we should give you singing lessons first." Bella jokes with a roll of her eyes, and I slap her knee. "OK...OK...Kitchen." She laughs. I jump to my feet and follow Bells into the kitchen where a heap of things are laid out. "As a treat." She starts, "I thought we'd make pizza, I know Nessie likes it so..." She slams down a rolling pin onto the counter island making me jump, "Maybe your little girl will too."
"OK." I say awkwardly, "So..." I walk over to the cupboard and squeal, taking out a bag filled with brightly colored sweeties! "Gummy bear pizza!"
"Uh...no." Bella says, lowering my hand and taking the gummy bears away, I gazed after them, and I could almost see them and hear them calling out to me, Alice! Alice we want to be put on your pizza! Alice! Alice...Help us Alice!
Oh I would be using those gummies one way or another. Bella placed down a green chopping board in front of me with a rolling pin placed neatly on it. "Chopping board." She says slowly.
"Just remember I'm carrying the baby, I am not the baby." I say coolly, "Of course I know what a chopping board is, Bella."
"Did you ever cook?" She asks.
I squirm uncomfortably, "I don't know, you know I don't remember anything from my human life."
Bella bites her lip, obviously uncomfortable, "Anyway...I already have the dough prepared." She takes a shiny rollout of the cupboard and I wrinkle my nose at it, cocking my head to one side.
"Is it meant to be that shiny?" I ask.
"I think that junk food is going to your head, Alice." Bella says, rolling her eyes, "It's covered in cellophane so it doesn't get dirty, so you don't get food poisoning."
"Oh." I say, feeling dumb, "Well how was I supposed to know?"
"Just get rolling." Bella says, taking the dough out of the cellophane and putting it on the lime green board, she passes me a rolling pin and then turns her back. I spy a pretty purple patterned rolling pin hanging up and I squeal. "What?" Bella asks turning around to face me, "Oh my god, Alice are you giving birth?"
"No! What's that? Can I use that instead?" I ask, jumping up and down and pointing like a crazy person, at least I don't think I'm crazy, but I have been told enough times...
"Alice, that's used for rolling icing, for patterns on cakes, just use a normal one." Bella says and turns her back again. Hehehe. I reach forward quick as a whip and get it and place the rolling pin in it's place, I roll it out and smile at the floral pattern spreading across my dough.
"Now what?" I ask, handily placing myself in front of my pizza.
"You put on the cheese." Bella says, handing me some delicious smelling cheddar cheese and a weird silver thing with random holes and a handle, "Grate it."
"You what?" I giggle.
"God, Alice." Bella says, "Grate the cheese! Like this!" She takes the grater and rubs the cheese up against it.
"Oh." I say in realization, I take it from her and start doing it myself, I enjoy it actually, doing a little dance as I do, wiggling my bum so that Bella laughs and rolls her eyes at me, I end up wearing away the massive block and then lift the grater, revealing a mountain of cheese, "Perfect!" I squeal, dumping it all on the pizza. "Now for the toppings!"
Bella gives me red pepper, tomatoes, olives and anchovies, as well as pineapple but the anchovies look disgusting so I put them in the bin when Bella isn't looking, then I take the gummy bears from my pocket and sneakily hide them under the cheese, and then go in the fridge, searching for more toppings, I find a Hershey bar, some cherries, a liquorices stick, some apple and...baked beans! I open up the can with my fingernail and pour them on, I'm pretty sure you don't have to heat them up...I hope. I chop up the Hershey bar and use that as well, as well as the rest of it. Then I open up the oven that Bella has been heating and shove it in...and then start to scream.
I leap away from the oven screeching and jumping up and down blowing at my hand which is currently in flames, "BELLA! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA HELP ME! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA I'M ON FIRE! I'M ON FIRE! HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPP!"
"Oh my god, Alice!" Bella screams, she glass a bucket and fills it up with cold water.
"BELLA! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA! BELLA I'M ON-" I am silenced as she throws a whole. Entire. Bucket. Of. Freezing. Cold. Water. Over. My. Whole. Entire. Body. I stand there soaked, my lace top clinging to my bump and I glare at Bella.
"At least the fire is out!" Bella says muffled, then she can't hold it in anymore and collapses to the floor, laughing like a hyena, unable to stop, she laughs so much tears spurt from her eyes and she even begins to snort like a pig, a thing I find so funny I start giggling too, then I start snorting myself, I laugh so hardly can't breathe and collapse onto the sofa, laughing hysterically like a mad woman.
"It's not funny!" I say wiping a tear from my eye, "I could have burned to death!"
"Unlikely." Bella says, "Go get dried off while your pizza cooks, then we'll serve it up to everyone-excluding Renesmee, I can't cope with her having food poisoning right now."
"Hardy har." I say sarcastically and walk up to mine and Jasper's bedroom to find another piece of clothing, as I go to our antique dresser to get a de-rust for my wedding ring I find a piece of paper, with Jasper's handwriting scrawled upon it neatly.
To our darling daughter...No.
Our beautiful little girl...No.
Our gift from god...No.
Our sleeping beauty...No, no.
He had drawn a locket. Aw, Jasper was having a locket made for our daughter? I felt tears spring to my eyes, I was so glad and so happy he was throwing himself into baby stuff, I was so glad he was happy. He was happier than I had seen him in centuries, in fact, he was the happiest I had ever, ever, ever seen him.
I get changed into a cuter maternity outfit, to make Jasper laugh, it was a short mini dress with a union jack on it, with a matching hat. I place it on my head and then stride downstairs to the smell of melting sugar and cheese...
I walk into the kitchen where Bella is getting my pizza out of the oven, her mouth drops open when she sees me, "What on earth are you wearing?"
"Clothes." I giggle, "Can we serve my pizza up now?"
"Sure." Bella says with a nervous edge to her voice. Oh honestly, what has she got to be afraid of, my pizza is going to be delicious!
I slice it up and place it on our best willow patterned plates that Esme found in China quite a few years ago, I always admired them, but never got a chance to use them, cause I never cooked...Ah, pregnancy opened up so many opportunities
We walked into the dining room that was barley used. Bella looked nervous as she placed the plate on the dining table and then called out weakly, "Guys...Alice has cooked for you!"
Everyone came in to the room looking faintly scared and disoriented, but my beautiful Jazzy gave me a weak smile, "Why?.."
"Bella has been giving me cooking lessons!" I say excitedly, "So I can cook for our baby when she gets here! I've made pizza!"
Everyone sits down at the table, and Bella serves them all pizza, I sit down beside Jasper and watch in excitement as everyone picks up a slice.
Emmett is the first one to bite into it, he chews for a moment and then screams so loud it makes the room shake, "IT TASTES LIKE DOG-" He doesn't finish as he runs out of the room and I hear him throw up on the white carpet.
"Alice, it's really-" Carlisle starts, before launching up to get to the bathroom, I watch as Esme neatly scurries out the room, Edward follows, but does not make it to the toilet, he throws his head out the window and sicks up noisily.
Jasper is the last one, going even whiter than usual, "Alice, it's really, really lovely." But then he belches, and runs to the toilet.
"Alice, what did you put on the pizza?" Bella asks in dismay.
"Just everything you gave me!" I exclaim, "As well as gummy bears, and chocolate and cherries and some other stuff..."
"OH FORGET IT!" Bella screams, clapping her hand to her mouth, "I'll cook for your daughter when she comes!" Before running to the toilet to herself.
The sure thing was that I wouldn't be cooking again for a long, long time.
There we go! I laughed so hard in this chapter, and I hope you will now you read it! New chapters up soon. I hope you enjoy, and remember, HAPPY NEW YEAR! :D :D :D
