Chapter 10!
It had been a week since Charlie had last attacked, and the Cullen's weren't as wary as they were before. I was allowed out of the house now, for purposes other then school for instance. Nobody watched my every move anymore, or questioned my every breath. Carlisle had taken off the plaster cast today, and was putting on a walking cast. He had said that the break wasn't severe at all and should be fine in about two – six more weeks. I was relieved. I enjoyed walking around with the crutches, don't get me wrong the were amazing fun to walk around in, but I was getting annoyed with having to ask for help up the stairs, and Alice having to help me in the shower.
"There you are Hun, all set." Carlisle said patting my knee.
I smiled at him and slid off the bed to test out the cast. It felt funny, as if I didn't actually have my leg. I giggled to myself and looked down at my foot. Alice would have a bit of a fit, she was hoping Carlisle would take the cast off completely.
"Alice is going to freak that she can't put 3'' heals on my feet."
Shaking his head, Carlisle helped me out of the room and back to the waiting room where Edward sat. He stood up as soon as I was in view and looked down at my foot. With a smirk on his face, he took his fathers place at my side, and after saying goodbye to Carlisle, we walked out of the hospital.
"So I was thinking. We haven't really done anything just you and me in a while, what do you say we go out to dinner tonight?"
"Sounds great. But Alice is going to have a fit when I can't wear both shoes she picks out. And you know shes going to want to dress me."
Edward chuckled knowingly as we started to weave to fast through the Cullen drive. Soon enough the house came into view. It still took my breath away every time I saw it. That was a little stupid though considering I lived there. I smiled up at the house as I stepped out of the car. No force of nature could remove me from this place, I was happy here. Edward came around my side of the car and frowned, he liked to help me out. I smiled at him lightly brushing my fingers over his face.
Alice pounced on me as soon as we got through the door, no doubt having stayed home from school as Edward had to see me as soon as I got back from the hospital. She stood in front of me and frowned at the cast on my foot. Ruffling her hair I walked passed her, still not used to the cast, and into the kitchen to get some juice. Alice followed me and I could feel her glare on my back for messing with her hair. I didn't turn to look at her though until my juice was poured.
"Stop glaring at me, I have a gift for you. Date, Edward, me tonight. Alice I have no clue what to wear!" I said playing it up a little.
She jumped up and down on the spot, her hands clapping, she was so easily swayed.
"I know the perfect thing! Come, come, come, follow moi!"
I laughed a little while Alice pulled me up the stairs and sat me down on the edge of her bed. She ran into her closet and was back within a few seconds the dress she had bought me at the mall the other day in her hands. I rolled my eyes and pointed at the dress raising my eyebrows as if to ask 'seriously', Alice just smiled.
"Come on Alice, really?"
"You look amazing in this dress no reason you shouldn't wear it. I didn't know why I bought it anyway. I kind of just saw it and instantly thought you. So, time to put it to use!"
She laid it down lightly against her bed and dragged me into her bathroom, where I was sure she was going to buff and polish every part of my body, until I shone. I just sat back in the chair and let her work, relaxing through it all as I usually did. I followed her instructions when she told me to open my eyes, pout my lips, that sort of thing. I felt her pulling a straightener through my wavy hair and every once in a while it sizzled as it hit a place where there was to much hair spray. She brushed my bang into my eyes a little and applied what I assumed was a head band to the top of my head.
"Okay you can look now."
I opened my eyes and looked in the mirror to see that it barley looked like me. My eyes looked darker then usual, almost black, sensual. My lips were painted a soft pink and were glossy. She didn't apply blush, as I could handle that factor by myself. My lashes were long and black, my face the colour of cream. The head band Alice had put in my hair was a thin silver band that held little flowers with crystals in them. I touched it lightly as the crystals shone in the dull light. My nails were painted too. Alice had done a black, French tip. Where the white should be, it was black. Usually my hair reached just below my shoulder blade, but that was when it was wavy. Straightened it was almost to my waist, and my eyes popped wide.
"I think I'm going to need a hair cut soon."
"Don't be ridiculous! You aren't cutting your hair Bella, I wont allow it."
Turning I smiled and hugged Alice. She helped me into the dress and then scrutinized my walking cast clad foot. Tapping her index finger on her chin, her eyes suddenly lite up and she dashed into her closet again. In her hands was a single silver flat, a flower on top of it. The pattern matched the head band, and the single shoe was meant for the one foot that didn't have a cast on it. Smiling to herself, no doubt telling herself she was a genius, Alice slipped the shoe onto my foot and stood straight again.
"There all finished. Wait right at the top of the stairs and don't come back down until I tell you okay?"
I nodded and followed Alice out of the room. She skipped lightly down the stairs, and I was sure Edward was waiting down there. I heard her cough to get everybody's attention and saw her wink, probably at Edward.
"May I present to you, my best creation yet I think," She said a little smug. "Miss. Isabella Swan."
Taking a deep breath I walked down the stairs. I didn't like being in the center of attention, but I let Alice have her fun regardless. I kept my eyes on my feet, and heard a gasp. My cheeks filled with blood and even though I was on the floor now I still didn't look up. Applause irrupted around me, and I finally looked up. Alice had a huge smile on her face, and Jasper's arm was around her waist. That's when I noticed that the whole gang was there. I smiled shyly and Edward's arm came around my waist.
"I don't think I have ever seen a creature as beautiful as you my dearest Bella." He whispered lightly in my ear and I shivered as his breath caressed my neck.
Taking my hand, he lead me towards the door and helped me put on the jacket Alice had picked out for me. It was the same one I had worn when I went out with Mike Newton. I shivered as I remembered that night, but kept the small smile on my face.
A gentleman as always Edward opened the car door for me and helped me in. Then he was in too and we were speeding down the drive and out onto the highway. He turned on the radio and we listened to the music for a while, comfortable with the silence. His hand found mine, and as he drove, he kissed it. I smiled and looked up at him through my eye lashes. Caressing my cheek, he let go of my hand and changed the gear of the car, pushing it to go faster.
We pulled into a fancy restaurant and he turned off the car, giving the keys to a valet, who went to park the car. Taking my hand, we walked in through the doors as they were opened for us, then closed silently behind us by to door men. Edward leaned over a podium and whispered something into the hosts ear. His eyes lite up and he gestured for us to follow him.
"Right this way Mr. Cullen, Miss. Swan."
He led us to a small booth at the back of the restaurant and handed us menus, promising our waiter would be with us soon. I picked up the menu and started looking at it, only to drop it back to the table.
"Are you serious Edward?" I asked angrily.
"What?" He asked confused
"The price of these dishes Edward! Seriously!"
He smiled at me, not bothered by my remark. His fingers caressed my face and I calmed a little at his touch.
"I know you wonder why Esme is always home right, but you never have the nerve to ask her because you feel you would be being rude, am I right?"
I blushed and looked down. He took it as a yes.
"Well that's because Esme owns this restaurant, and there is no need for her to come in unless it's an emergency."
I looked up in awe. Esme owned this place. I looked around and noticed that it did look very Esme like. I could tell now that it was her place. I shook my head slightly, still stunned.
We were getting ready to leave, our dinner finished. I kissed Edward on the cheek telling him I would be back in a second I only had to use the washroom. He smiled and kissed me back, and I scurried away before I could get to into it.
The bathroom was a big surprise. The more I saw of this place the more I wanted to know where Esme had gotten all her ideas for everything. I went to the washroom and as I washed my hands I heard one of the stalls slam open. I jumped a little at the sound, but wasn't worried at all, it was probably some drunken women who didn't give a care about who heard her.
"Well, well, well, don't we look pretty tonight Bells."
I had gotten the drunken part right, but as for the women part I was way off track.
