Time for chapter 10. Again I apologise for any mistakes made, I don't have a beta and I'm not the best at English in school.
Thanks to all the people who are reading this story, just under 3000. I'm really happy that people want to read what I have to write. Also if I got some facts wrong I'm sorry.
Without further ado you can now read chapter 10

"Wakeup, wakeup, wakeup." Was the first thing I heard the evil pixy in the morning. I knew it was too early. This time Alice shook me and trying to get away from her I rolled over thinking I was on my bed, only to land on the floor with a loud thud. I forgot that we all fell asleep on the couches in the movie room.
"Ow." I groaned and heard a few chuckles behind me.
"Come on Bella get dressed, it's time to go shopping." Alice told me. When I made no attempt to move she grabbed my arm and pulled me into one of the guest rooms. I looked at the clock and my eyes almost popped out of my head, it was 6:00. Why did we need to get up for shopping at 6:00? Lying on the bed was a cute outfit. There was a yellow tank top with a picture of ice-cream which said I 3 (the ice-cream made a love heart) summer, even though it was September, Alice is weird. It also had a plain white top to go under the tank; a pair of yellow skinny jeans; some yellow converse; a yellow ring with a flower on it and a necklace with a heart on it. I loved the outfit.
I quickly took a shower and got dressed. After I was dressed Alice came into the guest room to tell me that breakfast was ready. Alice was wearing a grey off the shoulder dress with black leggings and suede knee length boots. She also had a black necklace on. She looked amazing. I quickly made my way downstairs following the scent of bacon and eggs.
When I reached the kitchen Mrs. Brandon, or Helen, was washing up the pots and pans used to cook. The rest of the gang were sitting down at the bar and eating bacon and scrambled eggs, Emmett sadly wasn't in Alice's clothes. I went to sit down next to Rosalie who looked half dead, never wake Rose up before 8 she isn't a morning person. Rosalie was wearing a black off the shoulder shirt; black jean shorts; white leggings; red high heels and a red flower necklace. I ate my breakfast and as soon as I put my fork down Alice dragged me out of the house, with a quick goodbye to her mum and the boys, and into her car. (Girls outfits on profile)
"The boys are going to clean up and then going home." Alice explained as we set off. "We're off to because I wanted to do some proper shopping, so that's why we got up early." Great a three hour drive with the hyperactive pixy and the half dead beauty, though she was better than before because she had her coffee. During the ride Alice and Rose talked about Jasper and Emmett and how they loved him. I wished I had someone like that.
"So Bella is there anyone you like?" Rosalie asked me after she finished describing her latest date with Emmett.
"No." I said a little too quickly and of course my famous blush had to come pointing out that I lied.
"Come on Bella, tell us we're your best friends." Alice said whilst pouting. I could never say no to her when she pouts.
"Ok I do like someone." I told them slowly.
"Who?" Alice asked enthusiastically.
"Edward." I sighed quietly. I then heard two screeches and felt the car stop.
"Erm Alice why did you stop your car at the side of the high-way?" I asked.
"Because Isabella you just said that you like Edward. How much do you like him? When did you start liking him? Do you love him?" Alice asked without pauses so I couldn't answer her questions.
"OK Alice, I will tell you but you need to calm down." I told her. "Ok I like him a lot and it started from the second he caught me when I was going to into English and tripped, you know I like a man who can save me from myself. I don't know if I love him yet. But when I learnt that he was my childhood friend I started liking him more." I tried to explain to her.
"You two need to get together." Rosalie said from the back of the car. I jumped because I forgot that she was here with the way Alice was interrogating me. Alice turned the radio on and, a thousand miles, came on. (I was watching white chicks, awesome movie) Alice and Rose squealed.
"OH MY GOD this is our song." Rosalie shouted and started to sing.

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories
'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't...
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd
And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just hold you
Tonight
We were laughing by the end of the song and sang alone to others until we reached the mall. Our conversation about Edward all but forgotten.
The day flew by quickly and in no time at all we were going to leave, after a little argument with Alice of course.
"Can we go in this store first Bella, then we can go." It turned out the store Alice wanted to go in was a dress store. I don't know why we needed dresses.
"Ali, why do we need dresses?" I asked her.
"Well the 6 of us are going out for a meal tonight and it's a fairly classy place." Alice explained with a little glint in her eyes, she was up to something.
Alice ended up buying me a dress much to my dismay. I mean I had dresses back at home why did I need another one. She wouldn't even let me look at the dress she just said to me that it's perfect. She also said that Rosalie and she got a dress as well.
We went back to the car with loads of shopping bags. How many I don't know I lost count after thirty. They're so many that they barely fit in the back of Alice's Porsche and Rose and I had to put some on our laps.
"Ok we need to get you and Edward together Bella." Alice said about thirty minutes after we started driving.
"And how are you going to do that?" I challenged her.
"It's quite simple really. We're going to give you a make-over so you look beautiful – not that you don't know – and then he's sure to like you." Alice said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Alice it won't work you can't make someone like another person with looks." I told her.
"But Bella Edward likes you too." Rose said from the back of the car.
"And how do you know that then Rose?" I asked
"The way he looks at you, it's quite obvious your just blind." Alice said.
"Fine, but nothing too drastic Alice." I knew she would win in the end, she always wins. After I said those little words Alice squealed and bounced excited, this worried me because she was driving.
In no time at all we were at Alice's house and I was being dragged up into Alice's room way too quickly to see anything other than a blur.
"Ok Bella have a shower first. Here is the shampoo I have when you stay, a towel and your dressing gown." She threw all the things at me, and of course with my lack of hand-eye coordination I ended up dropping all of them on the floor. I quickly picked them up and ran into Alice's en suite bathroom. I slowly undressed and stepped into the shower taking my time. After awhile I heard Alice shouting at me to hurry up, so I quickly turned the shower off, dried my hair and put my underwear and dressing gown on. I made my way outside of the bathroom to be pounced on by Alice.
"You took your time in the bathroom Bella, come on we have less time to get ready." Alice said with a frantic look in her eyes, she needed at least two hours to get ready and according to Rose we were supposed to be ready at six in an hour and a half.
"Calm down Ali and let's get this show on the road." I told her. She quickly smiled and started on my make-up whilst Rose did my hair. They were soon finished but told me that I couldn't look into the mirror until I had my dress, shoes and accessories on. I quickly put on the blue dress Alice bought me as well as the black sandals held on by straps at the ankle – Alice is trying to kill me – I also put in some blue flower earrings and the my old locket.
"I'm done!" I shouted out of the door whilst walking out of the bathroom. I saw that Rose and Alice were already dressed. Alice was wearing a pink dress that finished just below the knee with a pink bow just below the bust, pink peep-toe pumps and pink earrings. Meanwhile Rose had a red pencil dress with a belt at the waist, it went below the knees. Rose also had black suede pumps with crystal-studded bows at the heel, necklace with a heart on and some earrings in. They looked gorgeous
I looked in the mirror and was shocked by the person staring back at me. She had her hair in soft curls framing her face and light make-up in natural tones, yet her eyes were done smoky, making them pop out. She wore a blue dress with a bow below the bust, which ended just below the knee and the heeled sandals made her legs look long. Overall she looked stunning. (Girls dress on profile)
"Thank you, thank you. You girls work miracles" I said to the girls.
"You're welcome." Alice replied. "So let's get going the boys are waiting." Alice said the last part excitedly making me think that something was either up or going to happen. She quickly grabbed my arm as Rose had all ready made her way downstairs. Whilst Alice was dragging me out of the room I looked at the clock and saw that it was six, wow Alice is actually punctual for once. Alice let go of my arm leaving me to take the stairs on my own, need I say that heels, me and stairs don't mix very well. I slowly made my way down the stairs, keeping me eyes on the floor. When I looked up I could see why Alice was so excited.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" the crowd shouted at me and of course I blushed, nothing out of the ordinary. Of course that little she devil – Alice – had to throw a birthday party for me. Not good, I am going to embarrass myself and I know it. Just wait until I get my hand of that pixy.
Ok so that's chapter 10 finished
Be nice to me and make my day by reviewing, it doesn't take long, please.
So bye for now and don't forget to review.
Sammii.
