Chapter 9

Disclaimer: I, EdwardEclipse, do not own twilight!

Alice's POV

We walked out of the hospital room with Bella leaning on Edward for extra support. "Back in the room, you said something about not being able to rely on Alice's visions. What did you mean?" Bella asked Edward quietly.

At first I thought she was saying this to annoy me, but then I realized she wasn't coconscious for that part of the 'adventure'. You tell her. Better you than me. I thought to Edward.

He nodded and said, "Well, Alice's visions have been sorta off and ..." His voice trailed off.

Bella gasped. "Great, now I'm gonna DIE!" She said sarcastically. She tried desperately to storm back into the hospital room but failed completely.

"Why'd you let me play Edward?" Bella asked softly. She stared deeply into his eyes.

"Because, I asked Alice to look into your future and she saw nothing. So I thought it was safe. Then she saw that it wouldn't be stormy and so I let you go waterskiing. I'm so sorry Bella!" Edward burst out quickly. It was better that Bella knows the truth.

"But now that Carlisle and Esme are playing both you and I should feel more secure." Edward said calmly.

"The game shall continue. You need a talent." I added. Bella looked shocked, probably because she didn't know I was listening at all.

"Should we tell Charlie where you are going?" Carlisle asked after closing the door to Bella's room and walking up to us.

"Ummm" Bella thought a while and then shook her head. "No. I don't think he would approve. Let's lie." Bella said with an evil smile.

Edward and I laughed. Even Carlisle smiled. "What do you suggest we say?" Carlisle asked.

"I don't know. Any suggestions?" Bella asked Edward, Carlisle and I.

"Oooh! I got it. Leave it to me!" I shrieked. I had the perfect plan.

Edward's POV

Great, Alice had a plan. This was going to be interesting. We entered the lobby where Charlie was waiting. Alice ran up to him right away and told him that Bella was free to go.

That Alice. She is so sweet. Especially to Bella. His thoughts were kind, something I wasn't used to.

"I was kind of hoping that Bella could sleep over at our house for a while. I just feel sooooo guilty about letting her go through with this." Only Alice could make the word so a 3 syllable word.

"I guess that'd be fine with me." Charlie answered. Alice gave him a huge hug and thanked him at least one hundred times before coming back to us.

"Okay Bella, you are in the clear for a few days. And nights." Alice said slyly.

Bella's hearing wasn't good enough to hear the conversation that had just taken place. "What do you mean nights?" She asked.

"You are sleeping over!" Alice squealed with joy. Bella rolled her eyes but smiled. I smiled as well. The more time with Bella the better.

Bella said, "Well let's get back to your house then." And with that, she ran to say goodbye to Charlie. The entire Cullen family, including Esme, was already at the car when Bella came back out. "Let the games begin...again." Bella said cheerfully and Jasper, Alice, Bella and I climbed into my Volvo.

Esme's POV

The rest of us got into Rose's convertible and headed off towards home. What have you gotten us into Carlisle? We pulled into the driveway to find Edward's car already there.

Bella was sitting in the grass in front of a top hat full of paper when we walked over to her. Alice added a couple slips and said, "Draw."

Bella reached in and pulled out a small slip. "Jasper." She read. Jasper looked from Edward to Bella and then over to me and Carlisle.

"I got it." Jasper said with a smile.

I feel good. 89 reviews please.
