I giggled, Jaspers eyes widened and glazed over when he looked at me, his amazing sapphire eyes reminded me of the sky on a perfect summer day, his tall built body and shiny blonde hair combined with those eyes he could be a movie star, or a supermodel. Wow.

'Jasper! You there?' Bella waved a hand in front of his face and doubled over laughing when he didn't respond.

'Ahhhh, it seems the lights are on but there's nobody home...' Renee joined in until all three of us were practically rolling on the floor, crying with mirth.

'Sorry, what?' jasper shook his head like a dog and raised his eyebrows when he saw us. 'What so funny?' this just caused us to laugh harder. Bella recovered first and wiped her eyes.

'Sorry Jaz but you should have seen your face! Oh god, why is it whenever you need a camera you never have one?'

'Well it's just nice to know that you find my epiphany amusing.' He grinned and I almost swooned, hot, funny, smart, that honey smooth voice and humble, he was perfect, and he had an amazing sense of style, the black jeans and slightly tight navy t-shirt made him look streamlined and dressy without looking posed. Ohhh please please please say he's single and straight, single and straight!

'Jasper, because you missed it earlier, Jasper this is Alice, Alice Jasper. He is single and straight, so is she.' I raised my eyebrows at her, in one smooth go she had answered all my prayers, and fulfilled my nightmares. I shot her a glare, the colour rising to my cheeks.

'Sorry Jasper, Bella seems to have a, how should I say it? Blunt way of seeing the world.' I smiled and turned to him only to see the colour drain from his face and his eyes deepen with care and worry.

'What is it? Bella?' I looked at her and gasped. 'on no Bella, im sorry I didn't mean it like that! Really im sorry!' her face was bone white and her eyes hollowed and unemotional. I ran over and grabbed her too skinny body and hugged her tight. 'really Bella I am so sorry' I pleaded with her almost crying. She hugged me back and smiled ruefully from me to Jasper.

'oh Alice, I know. im sorry I over reacted really, lets just go out and have fun today, ok? Good. Ill be back later Mum.' She kissed Renee and grabbed my hand and jaspers tugging us out towards jaspers metallic blue Audi.

'ill sit in the back!' Bella said and promptly jumped in shutting the door behind her, I hesitated but jasper broke in on my silent struggle.

'come on Alice, you can ride shotgun if Bella insists on being so obviously obvious, well you know she's trying to set us up don't you?' I started I hadn't thought of that, I made a mental note to thank her for this later but for now I think it best to play along.

'really? Well I guess I'll have to have a word to her about this later.' I smiled and took my seat.

'Bella, I love you!' I managed to whisper to her before Jasper got in. He smiled at before starting the car, today was going to be fun.

I collapsed into a padded both at Gloria Jeans (A/N: for those that don't know this is a really really good coffee shop that makes the best iced and hot chocolates!!) and laughed as Jasper fell down next to me.

'I probably should have warned you about Alice, she likes to shop, and I mean a lot!' he groaned.

'you could have told me before I agreed to come along!' he groaned and closed his eyes.

'yeah, but then you wouldn't have come, and then you wouldn't have met Alice so..' I trailed off and eyed him as I said the last sentence.

'mmmm, good point.' He sighed, 'so do you want a coffee? My shout.'

'sure, a hot chocolate though please, with marshmallows. I need the sugar after that.' Jasper left for the counter chuckling. He returned ten minutes later and handed me a hot cup. I took it and blew on the foam before prodding the marshmallows into the chocolaty goodness.

'come on you slowpokes! Have you finished yet?' Alice plonked down a handful of cardboard shopping bags at our feet. Jasper and I groaned in unison. 'what?!' Alice asked innocently. I couldn't help it, I started giggling and couldn't stop myself from bursting into full on laughter. Soon Alice and jasper joined in and Alice then promptly tripped on a bag and fell flat on Jaspers lap who caught her and pulled her upright again.

'you'll have to be more careful, if you keep going around like that you'll get to be as clumsy as Bella!' jaspers eyes shone as he looked into Alice's upturned face, unmasked happiness radiated from them like light from the sun. I suddenly felt like a third wheel, and welcomed it. Carefully I extracted myself from the seat and left the shop without interrupting the lovebirds. Wandering around aimlessly was a lot less interesting when you have someone to do it with, that is someone you like, so when I bumped into Edward, literally, my initial reaction was to walk as fast as possible in the opposite direction. No such luck.

'Bella.' He looked straight into my eyes and I was unprepared for his gaze. His bright emerald eyes seared into mine and held me prisoner. My heart spluttered and sped up with the intensity of the look he was giving me. I swallowed hard.

'Edward.' He smiled, one side of his mouth pulling up further than the other, the result was breath taking. This one simple expression turned his usual cold exterior into the face that any male model would die for.

'So, you here with jasper?' he asked.

'I was but, he's busy now.' I tilted my head to one side and blushed as I remembered what happened the last time we'd seen each other. Edward smiled and gestured behind him.

'Would you like a bite to eat, or drink?'

'No thanks, im fine.' I smiled and against my better judgement I felt myself starting to like him, like but not trust, yet.
