Chapter 11:
A WEEK LATER
The honeymoon was awesome. We had so much fun shopping and going to the beach. We just got off the plane and are on our way home.
"Back to reality," I groaned. He laughed.
"Yeah, well atleast we got two extra days off."
"True. I miss everyone too," I said.
"Yeah me too. We will have to get used to Alice again," I laughed and nodded at his response.
We got home around 10 and went to bed right away. I was woken up by my phone ringing. It was 8 in the morning. Alice.
"Hello?" I said sleepily.
"Are you back?!" she screamed.
"Yes unfortunately. Why did you call this early? You know we got in late last night," I said while walking out of the room and on my way to the kitchen to make coffee.
"Oh yeah! I'm sorry. Hey, umm We want to have brunch today around 11. Everybody is going. You guys in? Nevermind you don't have a choice because this is a welcome home party and-" I cut her off.
"We will be there."
"Great! I have missed you so much. How are you and Edward?"
"We are great. How about everybody else?"
"Bored. You have no idea how much fun you guys are to have around. It is odd but true."
"Alright well I will see you at 11. Esme's right?"
"Yup! Bye Bella!"
"Bye."
When I got off the phone the coffee was ready. Edwarrd came behind me and wrapped his arms around me.
"Good morning beautiful," he said.
"Morning," I said befor giving him a peck on the lips. "Coffee is ready. Do you want something to eat as well. Don't eat too much because we are gong to brunch at 11."
"Thanks. Where?"
"Alice called me and woke me up. I know, its unheard of," I said sarcastically. "She told me we are getting together at 11 at your parent's house. We have to go."
"Okay. I am actually kind of glad cause I miss everyone."
"Me too."
We got ready and left around 10:45. I was wearing dark washed skinny jeans with a pink halter top. Rose and Alice bought it for me in winter to wear during the summer so that is what I am doing. I put on the matching pink heels as well just to make them proud. I was wearing light pink eye shadow and brown eye liner with mascara. I just left my hair natural and pulled up into a ponytail.
"They have totally transformed you," Edward said while looking at me. I have been dressing up a lot lately. I guess it just feels normal.
"Is that a bad thing?"
"No you look goregous. I just hope you are not doing this just for me."
"Nah it makes me feels better about myself. I don't know why though."
He laughed and opened the door for me as we pulled up to the Cullen house. I got out and held hands with him until Alice came running out with Rose.
"BELLAAA!!! WE MISSED YOU SOOOO MUCH!" they both yelled as the almost tackled me to the ground.
"Hey guys I missed you too," I looked at Edward for some help he just laughed, shook his head, and walked away. I pouted in response.
"You have to tell us everything!" Rose said.
"Yeah and I love what you are wearing! You look great!" Alice said.
"I will later and Thank you Alice. Lets go see everyone else first though," they laughed and we walked up to the front door.
"Bella!!" Emmett yelled and engulfed me in a big bear hug.
"Em...Can't breathe.." I said gasping for air.
"Oh sorry Bells. I just missed you so much!"
"I missed you too big bro," I said and laughed. I hugged Jasper after that and then Esme and Carlise.
We went to the breakfast nook and ate brunch. There were homemade chocolate muffins and scones. They were amazing!
"Mmm...This is so yummy Esme!" I said.
"Why, thank you Bella."
"Not as good as the restraunt we ate at," Edward said. I smacked his arm playfully and said, "Yes, but homemade is always better. Plus it was only the desert that was to die for!"
"Oh, what was it?" Esme asked while smiling.
"This wonderful Italian place. They had this double chocolate chip cake with rasberry sauce drizzled on top. It was sooo sooo good!"
"Oh that does sound yummy," Esme said and everyone agreed.
"So aside from cake what was the best part of the trip?" Jasper asked.
"Hmm..I don't know. It was all good. What do you think Edward?" I said.
"I liked going to the beach. There were a lot mini shops it was interesting."
"Yeah and you are forgetting the part where you threw me over your shoulder and brought me into the frezzing cold water," I said and everybody laughed.
"You would have never gone in your self. And admit it, you loved it," Edward said.
"Yeah because I got you back by throwing water in your face!"
"Then I chased you like a quarter mile down the beach and tackled you. I call it even."
"Only cause you kissed me," I said and laughed. They all aww'd at our story. Jasper asked me to join him in the other room to talk to him alone. We were able to sneak out without anyone noticing.
"Whats up, Jas? Is everything okay?" I asked.
"I am going to propose to Alice tonight, and I have no idea what to do. I know where and when just not how."
"Aww! Umm..well what is Alice's favorite thing in the world?" I asked.
"Shopping and clothes. How will that help?"
"Her favorite store?" I asked. He has to know this one.
"DSW of course. It has shoes. I still don't know where you are going with this."
"Buy her a new pair of shoes from there and on the 'price tag' write something like 'Be my bride?' or 'Marry me?' you know something cute," I said.
"That is perfect! Oh my goodness Bella thank you so much! Uh wait!"
"You need help?" I asked laughing and he nodded. "Come on lets go right now. Can I tell Edward?"
"Yeah he already knows. How are we going to leave?"
"Let me ask Edward. He is usually good at things like this."
I went over and got Edweard and he said that he would go with us and pretend we need help lifting something at our appartment. He is a genius. The plan worked wonderfully.
I was shopping alone as they sat on the bench and watched me. This is a little wierd but I didn't mind. I found the absolute perfect shoe. It was about 2 inches and was red. They had roses on the top of the toe. It was goregous. Jasper bought them with no questions asked. Even though they were about $100. After that we drove Jasper back to his appartment and went to go set things up for him.
"I was very suprized he wanted me to help," I told Edward on our way to a place I have never been. Edward says he had seen it once or twice before. He said it was like Alice and Jasper's own place like we had our medow.
To my suprize we were going to an abandoned street in Port Angeles. We set up the high table and placed the shoes on it just like he asked. Then we hung up red decorations everywhere. Once we saw Jasper's car we noticed Alice was blindfolded.
"Thanks you guys," Jasper said and we hugged him and told him good luck. I was so happy for them.
