"The guys and Esme are going hunting, and you, Rose, and I are going to hang out"

"The guys and Esme are going hunting, and you, Rose, and I are going to hang out. What about that is so hard to understand?"

"Err… nothing… I just… never mind," I mumbled.

"Can't friends just hang out?" Alice asked.

"Of course!" It just always seemed that whenever we hung out, it was to keep me safe from some crazy vampires.

"Good, cause that's what we're doing tonight," Alice said smiling. "Get ready to have some fun!"


Alice wove through cars like a maniac, and I could barely resist the urge to kiss the ground when we finally made it to their house. Alice's driving made Edward's look like an old grandpa's. I was NEVER going to drive with her again! "C'mon Bella!" Alice said as she tugged me toward their massive home. "MAKEOVER TIME!!" she squealed happily. She scooped me up in her granite hard arms before I could complain, and whooshed me off to her giant bathroom.

"Alice!" I moaned. "If we're supposed to be having fun, then why can't we do something that I want to do?"

"What would you want to do besides makeovers?" Alice asked. She looked as if there was nothing better than a good makeover, but I could think of A LOT of better things.

"Well… we could just watch movies and talk?" I offered.

Alice sighed and looked unhappily at the ground. "Well… I spose if that's what you want…"

I knew she was just using her puppy dog face to make me crack, but I could never ignore a guilt trip. "Well… You guys could give me mani-pedis whiled we watched the movies if you wanted." I mentally kicked myself. Why oh why couldn't I be tougher!?

"Yaay!" Alice sang. "I'll even let you pick what colors you want!" She clapped her hands in happiness, just like a four year old.

At that moment, Rose walked into the bathroom carrying a bunch of hair styling tools. "What's up?" she asked when she saw Alice hopping up and down.

"Bella said we could do her nails while we watched movies and talked about stuff! Doesn't that sound fun!?"

Rose looked down at the items in her hands and sighed. "I guess I'll go put all of this back…" She began walking toward the door, but I was curious and had to know what she was holding in her arms.

"Hey Rose?" I asked. "What is all of that?"

Rose looked at me and smiled. "Do you want me to show you?" she offered.

"Sure!"

"Cool!" she smiled. "Kay, just sit down in this chair…" Rose led me to a chair that looked a lot like one of the chairs from my hair saloon.

"Why do I have to sit down?" I asked. I was suddenly suspicious, and I didn't know why.

"Bel-la," Rose said dragging my name out to put emphasis on how silly I was being. "Look at all this junk I'm holding." She held out her arms which were almost over flowing with products. "Do you honestly want to stand up while I show you all of this stuff?"

"Yes!" I answered stubbornly.

"Well too bad!" Alice growled from behind me. Before I knew it, I was hurtling toward the chair at super speed. Alice sat me down and all but welded me to the chair. She put Velcro straps around my wrists and ankles to hold me to the chair. All of this happened before I could even voice a complaint.

"Alice! What the hell are you doing? Dammit, get me outta this thing!" Angry outbursts weren't usually my thing, but when one was being set up, what else was she supposed to do? "C'mon!" I whimpered. "These straps hurt!"

"Oh suck it up!" Rose said lightly. "I wanna try something on you!"

"Oh do you?" I said. "Well I'm not gonna let you do whatever that is." I went to cross my arms and whimpered in pain when the Velcro cut into my wrists.

"It doesn't really matter what you think Bella, cause Rose is gonna cut your hair anyway."

"Cut my hair?!" I screeched. "I like my hair perfectly the way it is, thank you very much. And no offense Rose, but I don't really trust you near my neck with scissors. And neither of you went to beauty school or anything, so you aren't certified to cut my hair!" Well… actually they probably were since vampires seemed to be able to do everything perfectly, but I wasn't going to say that.

"Well Bella, you're wrong about that," Rose said. "You see, I did go to beauty school, so I am certified to do your hair. If you want I can go get the certificate."

I sighed in defeat. "Fine… but I get to decide what you do."

"No way Jose!" Alice said. "You'd just tell Rose to give your hair a trim and that would be that. We're going for something a little more drastic… more like, 'Hey, I know I'm getting married at eighteen, you got a problem with that?' not, 'I'm sorry it upsets you that I'm getting married. I'm gonna go hide in the bushes from your stare.' You need something new to show how you've changed over the past two years."

"Then why don't you just shave my head? I've gone through all the trauma Brittney Spears has and more. You can just call me Bella Spears!" I didn't mean to bring up the whole Edward leaving thing, but I was starting to get extremely irritated. Why couldn't I just cut my hair the way I like it? Stupid controlling vampires!

"Well, I'm gonna give you a cute and stylish cut, and it's not going to be super short, don't worry," Rose assured me. "And I promise to keep Alice away from the scissors!" She smiled slightly and I saw Alice pout out of my peripheral vision.

Before I knew what was happening, Rose was snipping my hair at super speed. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. She promised that it wouldn't be super short, and I didn't really want to hurt Rose's feelings now that we were finally getting along better together. Maybe if I let her cut my hair the way she wanted to, we would become friends.

"Oooh! Bella you look sooo good!" Alice cooed.

"Hmmm… I did do pretty good, didn't I…" Rose mused.

I took that to mean that she was done, so I looked into the mirror to see what they had done to me.

My mouth fell open and my eyes began to burn. "Rose!" I shrieked. "What did you do to me??" My hair looked nothing like the way I liked it… It was about an inch above my shoulders, and it flipped out at the bottom. It was layered… it was short… and I had BANGS! It was HORRIBLE!

"Bella, you look great. There's nothing that you shouldn't like about your hair. You're hot!" Rose said smiling hugely.

"Well…" I was about to agree with her. I mean, my hair would grow out and I would look just like how I wanted to… Oh no… I began to sob uncontrollably.

"Bella? Bella?" Alice shook my shoulders. "What's wrong? I saw you say that you loved your hair, that's the only reason why we did it. What's wrong!?" Alice's voice was turning hysterical. She didn't want Edward to come home due to something that she did.

"Bella you're eighteen! You can talk to us… or you can be unbelievably difficult and act like you're two."

"Y-y-you g-g-guys c-cut my hair!"

"Duh Bella," Rose sighed. "What did you think we were doing?"

"Awww no!" Alice moaned. "Bella please, don't do this! Edward's gonna come home and he's gonna kill me!"

"LET HIM!" I screamed. "YOU GUYS RUINED MY HAIR FOREVER!"

"Bella your hair will grow back," Rose said as if it was obvious.

I managed to stop sobbing long enough to stare her in the eyes and ask, "Does yours?"

Realization flitted across her face, and her eyes widened. "Oops…" she said half smiling.

I began to cry and I was going to jump up and run away, but the Velcro straps cut into me, and I began to sob harder. "Get… me… OUT!" I managed to force out between sobs.

Alice undid the straps and stood back, looking absolutely mortified. She was going to get it later from Edward, and right now I didn't care. I ran up the steps, tripping multiple times along the way, until I was in my one sanctuary, Edward's room. I fell into the bed and curled up into a ball. Sobs racked my body, and I thought I could never stop.

I laid there and sobbed for hours, never able to fall asleep. Why did they have to cut my hair?? Now I would look like this forever! My hair wouldn't grow once I became one of them, and I wanted my old hair back.

I didn't hear him come in, but I felt him gently pry my arms loose from around my legs. I curled into his chest, and began to sob. He must've already known what I was crying about, for he didn't bother to ask. I could tell he was waiting to go bite off Alice and Rose's heads, but at least he was there now, holding me. And that was all that I needed.


Awww... Poor Bella. She's gonna look silly forever. If I can find a pic of what I think her hair looks like, then I will post it on my pro.

Pretty please review!!
