B POV
After having gotten an A on our essay, thanks to Alice, even though she says I did just as much work as her, she held true about going shopping in Seattle. At first it had been fun, even though I don't really like shopping, for the first three stores. Now we are on our tenth store, and Alice had bought me three new outfits. I had declined, telling her to not spend money on me, but she still did anyway. If it weren't for me telling her in every store to not buy me something, I'd probably have three outfits from every store. I don't know why she wanted to but me stuff, I mean I knew she had money, that was obvious considering she had four bags of clothes in each hand, but I guess it's just an Alice thing. A part of her personality.
"Alice are we almost done? My feet hurt." I complained. "Fine, but just one more store." I groaned, she had said that at the seventh store we had went to. "I promise, this is the last one. Scouts honor." At that she put her hand over her heart and held her head up high, and I just had to laugh. Until I saw the store she had lead us to. Victoria's Secret.
"Um, Alice? Why are we at this store?" I asked blushing. "To buy lingerie." She said simply.
"But neither of us are dating."
"So? I always buy from here." So she wears this all the time? I tried to imagine her wearing some the the lingerie in here. I must have been thinking longer than I'd thought because Alice was saying my name. "Bella, come back."
"What? Sorry." I said blushing. I can't believe I'd just imagined Alice in lingerie. Not to say I hadn't liked what I'd seen, but I shouldn't have even considered that.
Alice and I walked further into the store and she began pulling things off racks. "Aren't you going to pick some things too?" She asked. "No." I said blushing.
"Why? Even if no one sees you in it don't you want to feel sexy? Besides if you don't pick something I'll pick something for you." She threatened. "Fine." I grumbled, embarrassed. I picked the most harmless looking thing I could find and we headed to the dressing rooms to try them on. I was about to walk into a separate dressing room than Alice, but she stopped me. "Come on, we are. Both girls, and other people could use that dressing room." As soon as she locked the door I turned around. "Let's see how these look." Alice said. As I was taking off my clothes and putting on my "lingerie", which was just a simple black bra and underwear set that was covered in lace, but thankfully not see through, I couldn't help but want to turn around and see Alice.
I had thought what I'd chose was harmless, but it turns out that the bra was very low cut, and tight. "Alright, so how do I look?" Asked Alice and I turned around. I was barely able to keep my mouth from dropping to the floor. The lingerie she had picked was red, low cut, lacy, and I didn't think it should be legal. I found myself staring at her chest a little to long without having noticed, and I blushed and quickly looked away from her for my own sanity. It was like she was doing this on purpose.
"Y-you look g-good." I stuttered. I finally looked back at her and I could have sworn she looked a little smug for a second. "Thanks, so do you." She complimented, looking me up and down. I thought she also stared a little too long at my chest, but I was probably imagining it. Then she had an 'Alice moment' where she just looked off into space for a little while. "Come on, let's go get dinner." Alice said after coming back, a big smile on her face. "You are only going to try on one? You brought like five in here."
"I know, but I'm hungry."
"Okay." I was starving by this point, shopping really wears me out, especially shopping with Alice.
A POV
Seeing Bella in that lingerie was much better than I'd thought it would be. I had purposely chose the sexiest of the lingerie I had brought into the dressing room to see Bella's reaction. It looked like she could barely keep her mouth closed, poor girl. I couldn't help but let my eyes roam her to, and I probably stared a little too long at her chest. But know I knew from her blush and stuttering that she was, at the very least, physically attracted to me, and we were already best friends. Which means there is a chance she likes me too. Loves me too. I was going to try my hardest to get her. After I had declared that I was bombarded with visions, all of them about Bella and I. Us walking in the park on a cloudy day, us kissing on her couch, us cuddling on her bed, her as a vampire kissing me in the woods, her kissing me in my-our room. "Come on, let's go get dinner."
"You are only going to try on one? You brought like five in here." She questioned. I had gotten the information I'd wanted, and even though I wanted to see if Bella in more lingerie, I knew she had to eat. Besides, I already knew her reactions to the other lingerie sets. "I know, but I'm hungry."
"Okay." She agreed. Now I just had to see what would work best to get Bella to say yes to a date.
