Chapter 10
Bella POV
It was 9:00 and the sun had been down for almost an hour now. The full moon shone brightly above the horizon. It cast a white light on the black water. We made our way down wooden steps and onto the cool sand. A path led us to a small dock at the waters edge, where a mini yacht was tied to one of the posts.
This morning I woke up with Alice and Rose on either side of me. I woke them and we got up to go make breakfast. After a quick bowl of cereal each, we headed up stairs to get ready for the big night ahead of us.
All day Alice and Rose poked and prodded me, covering me in every skin care product known to man. They blew dry my hair and curled it, before covering it in hairspray. They made me close my eyes as they dressed me so I couldn't complain as to what they were putting me in.
"Open." I was told and I did. I found myself looking into Alice's floor length mirror in her bathroom. The sight I saw, stunned me. This couldn't be me.
I had on a midnight blue strapless dress that hugged my waist and flowed out to just above my knees. I was wearing what looked to be blue python flats, and I had the most beautiful blue necklace on, with a matching bracelet.
My eyes had a shadowy look from the black smoky eye shadow and blue eye liner.
"Thank you so much guys." I smiled and brought both Alice and Rose into a hug.
"Now it's our turn." Alice said, grabbing Rose's hand and disappearing into the bathroom. I sat down on the bed for over two fucking hours before they finally emerged. Of course, they were absolutely beautiful. I couldn't compare.
Alice's hair wasn't in its normal spiky due; it was straightened back and went down a little past her ears. She had on a strapless red cocktail dress that tightened at the waist and flowed down to her knees. On her feet were a pair of the highest black heels I had ever seen. She stood taller than me for the first time. Those things easily must have been over 5inches tall. She had a necklace much like mine but hers was red. To top it all off, she had a thick layer of black eyeliner and extremely red lipstick that went well with her pale skin and black hair.
Rose's outfit was out of this world. She looked extremely beautiful. Her blonde hair were in natural curls down to her waist, and the left side was held back by a two black bow barrettes.
Rose's gown was amazing. It was a pretty floor length strapless plum dress. It fit her body perfectly, hugging the defined curves of her waist, and stopping just above her gorgeous black peep-toed wedges. (All outfits on profile)
Every one of her accessories was plum, her nail polish, her ring, necklace, purse and one of her five bracelets. It was only 7:00 so we sat down and turned the TV on.
All us girls were at the Cullen house and the boys were at the Hale house. When the guys were ready, we would go pick them up. Alice had hired a limo to drive us to and from the beach.
About half way through an episode of the show Dating in the Dark, I noticed Rose wasn't watching. She was playing around with a device that looked like walkie talkie, but it had a big square screen, flashing lights, and it was beeping.
"What the hell is that?" I asked, getting up to go sit by her.
"It's for the weather. I heard that weather changes extremely quickly off First Beach and the coast, so I bought this, the weather tracker. It tells me when the weather changes. If the weather is perfectly calm then the first green light turn on, if it gets a little iffy, then the light moves up and blinks yellow, if there a storm then it blinks orange. If the weather turns extremely bad, like get off this boat and onto land kind of bad, then it blinks red and beeps rapidly, but that won't happen. Look the weather is perfect." She explained.
"Wow, that's a fancy piece of shit you got there. You know you don't need to worry. The weather is fine." Alice chimed in.
"Fuck you! I know, this is just to be sure." Rose argued and shoved the weather tracker in her purse.
We sat in silence for another hour, before we got a phone call. Rose put it on speaker.
"Hey babe, were ready." Emmett's voice boomed through the phone.
"Okay we'll be there." Rose answered.
"Oh Rose? I've been a bad boy. I think I need to be punished tonight." Emmett whispered in a husky voice. Alice and I broke into fits of laughter and Rose turned red.
"WHAT THE FUCK! ALICE, BELLA? FUCK!!" Em screamed and hung up. Rose broke down laughing and it was a good 10 minutes before we calmed down. We wobbled down the stairs and out the door, occasionally stopping to have a laugh attack, just remembering the phone call.
I'll never forget the way Edward looked when we picked up the guys. He was wearing a navy tux and he looked absolutely beautiful. His hair was his usual beautiful mess on his head, but today for some reason, looked more amazing.
When Edward had seen me, his mouth had dropped open and he practically eye fucked me. I felt self conscious being next to Rose and Alice but when Edward had done that, I felt better.
"Happy birthday bad boy!" I told Emmett smirking. He shot me a glare but softened it up and gave me a hug, same for Alice.
The yacht we approached was pretty amazing. From bow to stern, it was probably a good 60 feet long. There was a main deck and a smaller one above, that's where the Captain drove the boat. There were lights and lanterns and streamers all over, Rose really out did herself.
We walked out onto the dock and stopped by stairs leading up to the main deck. An old man in a captains hat was standing there.
"My name is Captain George and I shall be driving the boat this evening. Please follow me to your table on the front deck. Tom here will be your server and Greg is your cook tonight." Cap. George pointed to a young man probably in his early twenties and a cook who looked older, but they both looked really nice.
Tom sat us all at our table and Greg went down to the kitchen. Cap. George announced that we were departing.
The air was cold and the sky was clear. Tonight was perfect, especially with the moon directly ahead, casting yellow light down onto our table.
We had all ordered drinks when I found a dilemma, I had to clue where to put my clutch. I didn't want it to go on the table because of the food nor the floor.
"Hey guys where can we put our purses?" I asked looking over to Alice. She had her bag in her hang. She placed it on the table, looked at it and took it off. She moved it to the floor, but quickly snatched it back up.
"Your right." She looked over to Rose who looked to be having the same problem.
"Well be right back." Rose announced getting up, motioning us to follow her and disappearing threw double doors.
Alice and I excused ourselves and followed Rose. We found ourselves in a small hallway. Rose was halfway down, opening doors as she went. The second to last door in the hallway opened up to a small room. There was a table, chairs, and a little closet with hangers.
We all left our purses on the little table, after Rose took out her weather tracker and put it on the chair, moving the chair next to the door.
We shut the door on our way out, when I noticed the door next to one we came out of was a bathroom. I would have to keep that in mind.
The table we were all sitting at was square with six chairs, everyone paired off, so you can guess who I sat next to.
"What can I get you to eat tonight?" Tom asked leaning toward me. I moved back from him and answered.
"Uhhh.. can I have the mushroom ravioli?" I asked.
"Of course, now is there any else I can get you?" He asked stretching the word any in a weird way; I could sense the double meaning in his words.
"Were all good here. I'd appreciate it if you could go put our orders in, were kinda hungry." Edward told him. I'm pretty sure everyone heard the acid in his tone, but nobody said anything.
Our waiter merely smiled and made his way down to the kitchen. I turned to Edward but he was staring down at his plate. We all talked for awhile except Edward, but when our food came, all you could here were the clinging of forks.
All our plates had been cleared away and Greg came out carrying a huge birthday cake. We sung and clapped as Emmett blew out all of his candles in one huge breath.
"I'd like to give a toast." Rose announced, grabbing her champagne and standing up. We all followed suit.
"Emmett, I known you so long, I think since the 4th or 5th grade, and even though we only started dating three years ago, I have loved you though whole time. I'm so glad your part of my life and I wouldn't have it any other way. Happy birthday and I love you." Rose had tears in her eyes as she raised her glass high and said "To Emmett!" We all took sips of our drinks.
Emmett removed Rose's drink from her hands and delicately grabbed her face, bringing it close to his.
"Rosalie Amanda Hale, I love you so much. This is the best birthday I have ever had. Thank you so much for doing this for me. I love you so much, now and forever." Emmett crushed Rose's lips to his.
Just seeing this made me overwhelmed. I would never find anything like that. And in the pit of my stomach, I felt a ping of jealousy. I would never be happy like that. It felt like it was getting hot in here, so I excused myself to the bathroom.
Edward POV
I looked over to see a strange look on Bella's face. She was looking around franticly.
"I'm going to go use the bathroom." She said quickly. She got up and practically ran through the double doors. I just stared after her worryingly.
I thought back to when I had snapped at the waiter for looking down Bella's shirt and suggestively asking her shit. That sick fuck, I could hurt him.
What the fuck am I thinking? I have NEVER been protective, or jealous, or mad when a guy talked to a girl ever. This was something I had never experienced.
Just admit you like her. But I don't like her. Stop lying to yourself, you've liked her ever since you first laid eyes on her. You may still wanna get in her pants but you know you want to have a relationship with this girl. Just the fuck up!!!! I screamed at my self in my head.
I put my head in my hands and sighed. I couldn't help my feelings. I think I like, no I know that I like Bella, in a way I have never liked anyone before, and it scared me.
Bella POV
I have been in here for 15 freakin minutes. Just calm down! I yelled at my self and stood up from the chair that was in the corner. I walked over to the sink and turned it on, splashing water in my face. I dried it with a towel, checked to make sure I looked alright and exited the bathroom.
As I opened the door into the hall, I was hit with an annoying rapid beeping. What the fuck is that? I followed the noise and I found myself in front of the door that held our purses.
Curiously, I opened the door and the beeping immediately got louder. The walls had a red glow cast on them that disappeared for a second and glowed again. I followed the light to the weather tracker.
Suddenly the beeping got fast and the blinking red light flashed quicker. Shit! Rose had said that red meant get off this boat and onto land kind of bad. I panicked and grabbed the device. I looked at it and for the first time saw on the little screen the words Danger!! In huge black letters. Fuck!! I ran out into the hallway and started running toward the doors.
I was suddenly thrown up against the wall from the rocking of the boat, But I was pulled up by a set of strong hands. Edward tucked me under his arm and we ran through the doors.
The wind had picked up extremely and the table was blown over onto the floor. Cups and plates were in broken piles of glass on the floor, and Emmett, Jasper, Alice, and Rose were nowhere to be seen. I tried yelling over the roar of the waves and wind.
"Where are they?" I asked clinging to Edward's side.
"Here they come now." Edward yelled pointing to the stair leading up to the steering room, and coming down were all my friends plus the captain.
"The motor is dead, the radio, the navigation system, all dead." George yelled to me and immedialty my heart dropped to my stomach.
I felt tears pour down my face and I looked up to see Alice clinging to Jasper, crying into his shoulder. Jazz was literally holding Alice down so she didn't blow away. He dress was in tatters and her hair was a mess. He make up was running down her face and she was missing a shoe.
Rose was even worse. You could clearly see her strapless bra because the top of the dress was in shreds, not to mention filled with water. He dress was now only down to her knees and both of her shoes were gone along with all her jewelry.
A wave suddenly washed over the side and sent us all spinning in different direction. I crashed into a pair of arms that grabbed me and held me tight. They were Edwards.
"Edward, were gonna die." I cried into his shirt.
"Will make it threw." He muttered.
"No!" I screamed. "Look at us! Were in the middle of the ocean. The boat is fucking dead, this storm is crashing waves onto us, were as good as dead!" I screamed and looked around.
I could see the captain and everyone was clinging to the railing for dear life.
A look of realization crossed both Alice's and Rose's face. We were gonna die!
"Jasper, I think your dad is hot!" Alice suddenly told him.
"Emmett, you weren't my first kiss!" Rose told him. I realized what they were doing, confessing to stuff before we died. I suddenly realized what I had to do.
I turned to Edward only to have him grab my face in his hands.
"Before we die, I have to get this out." He took a deep breath. "Isabella Swan, I have liked you from the moment I first laid my eyes on you. When you were at the pool walking with Alice and I saw you, I fell head over heels. I tried to tell myself i didnt like you because i didnt want to hurt you, but i cant hide my feelings anymore And i needed you to know before we died."
My heart soared and I was truly happy for the first time in a long time. I liked Edward and he liked me back.
"Edward, I have liked you since I saw you sitting at the top of that lifeguard stand. You took my breath away and I'm so happy."
Edward leaned down and slowly inched his lips toward mine. I quickly closed the distance and crushed his lips to mine. The electric spark that I felt when our lips touched was something I can't even explain and I will remember for as long as i am left living.
For the moment, everything was forgotten. In my head me and Edward were alone, far away from this storm, kissing each other with as much desire as we could each muster.
The wind whipped around my face and the rain stung, but I didn't care. I was finally kissing Edward, something I have dreamed of doing for awhile.
We pulled away and he crushed me to his chest.
Suddenly a huge wave crashed over the side of the boat and Edward and I fell to the ground, our heads both colliding with the wooden floor with extreme force. I was slipping into unconsciousness, I could feel it.
At least I would die happy. I thought as the darkness consumed me.
Edward POV
Bella had been gone for awhile and i was actually kind of worried. My thought were suddenly drawn to the sudden pick up in the wind. Rose's hair swirled around her face as she looked out to the ocean nervously.
The clear sky wasn't so clear anymore. Huge black clouds were rolling in and i could tell it was raining by the horizon, and quickly moving this way. The boat began to rock violently and the plates and dishes slid off the table and to the ground. Everyone got up and back away as the glass colided and smashed to the floor.
The rain came suddenly and in blinding sheets, it was freezing. Rose's expression was a cross or fear and anger as she grabbed Em and dragged him up steps toward the place where The captain drives the boat, Alice and Jazz followed.
The table blew over and i realized this was a problem. Then i remembered Bella and her clumsiness would not mix great with the rocking of the boat.
I dashed through the double doors in time to see Bella throwin into a wall, a strange looking walkie talkie in her hands. i over looked that and grabbed her shoulders, picking her up, and quickly making our way back onto deck.
Water was rising high and with each big wave, sending huge amounts over the railing. Bella said nothing as she took in the smashed glass and over turned table, and the fact that Rose, Em, Alice, and Jazz were no where to be found.
"Where are they?" She asked clinging to my waist.
"Here they come now." I yelled pointing to the stairs leading up to the steering room, where all our friends including the captain were struggling to come down. They were holding onto the banister to keep from being blown over. Jasper had to literally hold Alice to the ground.
It hit me. I feared for my families life, and Bella's. The situation didnt look good.
"The motor is dead, the radio, the navigation system, all fried." George yelled to me and immedialty my heart stopped.
Holy Shit!!!!
I heard a sob and looked down to see tears pouring down Bella's face.
Alice and Rose looked like shit. There hair was a in a mess on there heads and there dresses were ripped so much that they looked like random pieces of string, it was horrible.
Suddenly a wave rose above the railing and crashed down onto the deck sending us spiraling in different diffections. A soft body collided with mine, whick i identified as Bella. I pulled her to me and held her tight, grabbing the railing to keep us steady.
"Edward, were gonna die." Bella cried, gripping my shirt and burying her head in it.
"Will make it threw." I muttered. i wanted to be strong and see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it only looks like another train heading through.
"No!" She screamed. "Look at us! Were in the middle of the ocean. The boat is fucking fried, this storm is crashing waves onto us, were as good as dead!" Bella screamed and looked around.
She looked at Emmett holding onto Rose and Jasper holding onto Alice.
Looks of realization crossed both of Rose and Alice's faces, and they shouted what sounded like confessions, last confessions before they die.
I knew what i had to do. Bella turned to me and looked like she was gonna say something but i quickly grabbed her face in my hands, cutting her off.
"Before we die, I have to get this out." I took a deep breath and looked her in the eyes. "Isabella Swan, I have liked you from the moment I first laid my eyes on you. When you were at the pool walking with Alice and I saw you, I fell head over heels. I tried to tell myself i didnt like you because i didnt want to hurt you, but i cant hide my feelings anymore And i needed you to know before we died."
Bella's face brightened up for the first time since we got on this boat and it made me happy to see her smile.
"Edward, I have liked you since I saw you sitting at the top of that lifeguard stand. You took my breath away and I'm so happy." She told me, smiling the whole time.
I inched my lips closer to her. I just wanted to taste her once before i died. She closed the distance herself and crashed her lips to mine. What i felt was the electric current i had felt when i was giving her CPR, but this was better. We both wanted this.
The spark that shot through me when her lips moved in syncranation with mine was something i cant even begin to explain, but will remeber as long god keeps me alive.
For a monent, the thought of being stranded out in to the ocean, the blinding rain, the roaring wind, the huge waves, were all forgotten. I was completely happy.
I was brought out of my chance by the boat rocking and Bella lost her footing. I grabbed her and crushed her to my chest for a final hug.
A huge wave came tearing toward the boat and crashed over us, sending us falling to to the grounds, our heads colliding with the wooden floor with great force.
I was slipping into unconsciousness, I could feel it.
At least I would die happy. I thought as the darkness consumed me.
