HEY! No note today. Idk why ppl feel they need to say 'this isnt owned by me-its owned by stepehenie meyer' no shit, sherlock. dont you think ppl would already know that if they read twilight? freaking reatards. (sorry if i offended anyone) Oh YEAH! Remember when I mentioned that people should name who sang that song from chapter 8? Well, no one cares enough, so I'm going to tell you:

The song was by Miranda Lambert, and the song was "More Like Her." The lyrics from the song was "She was beautiful, in her simple little way." Okay, Thanks, enjoy!

cough please review. please please please please please. I'm begging you here!" cough

After listening to the song, someone knocked on my door. I told them they can come in. It was Bella. She almost danced over to my bed and sat down. She was awfully graceful, even for a vampire. That's funny considering how clumsy she was in her human life.

"Hey, you know you don't have to give in to Alice. I know how she is, and she does respect other people's opinion. She'll let you make your own decisions about colors and furniture and everything. She knows it's your house, she just wanted an excuse to be able to shop and decorate."

"Yeah, I know she does. It's just that I'm already irritable from stress with cleaning all day, and then to come home to a smelly house is not very appealing."

She laughed and said, "Your house doesn't smell so great to us either." she said, then continued after a pause. "Ha ha, er, so...Why did you defend your chairs, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Well, I like them. They were loved once, and they still have a chance at love."

"That's very deep. I-" she was cut off when we both heard the sound of someone approaching. Another vampire, that was great. As if my house didn't already reek. Her husband walked into my room, and I muttered sarcastically to myself, "Sure, come right on in." He looked over at me, and smirked, but he didn't leave. All he did was walk over to Bella, but she smiled as if she were seeing him for the first time in two years. She stood up and embraced him.

Ugh, here we go again. I got up and walked to my kitchen. Alice was sitting at my two-person table with Esme. They looked up at me and Alice disappeared and reappeared in front of me. I could feel her cool temperature radiating off of her, she stood too close for comfort. Her eyes were sparkling with excitement when she asked, "What color do you want your guest room to be?"

I hadn't thought much about that. I wanted something warm and inviting. Hmmm...too many rooms are painted blue. What color can I paint it that would be nice, but not too much, and not too girly, hmm. Bella and Edward came into the room. I was still pondering what color to make it when Edward spoke up and said, "What about a light maroon color-almost like a pink, but not quite that feminine?" That sounded nice. Like the color of my grandma's old chairs in her living room.

I smiled and said, "That sounds great."

Alice's eyes looked at me and lit up even more along with an even wider smile. How ws that possible? That would hurt to smile so wide. "Thanks Edward! You finally got a spark of enthusiasm out of her. Now, Leah, that sounds great, and I will go to the store tomorrow to get colors of paint so you can choose. I will have to go to your shop tonight and tidy up more, but tomorrow we will definitely start! EEEP!"

"Alice, calm down. You're just redoing her room, not finding a national treasure," Bella said, rolling her eyes.

"It might as well be! She finally responded to the fun in this!"

"Fun?"

"Yes, fun. It's fun to paint and furnish and everything. It's like art class all over again. Hmm...art class...maybe I should take up some drawing and painting. That would be so fun!"

Her mind traveled a hundred miles an hour, I couldn't keep up. I shouldn't even try. It was useless. There was just not enough time to try to find out the reasons behind everything she talked about.

Edward chuckled at my thought, and said "She was thinking about how much she loves remodeling rooms, that she thought she should take up painting."

"Sheesh, Leah. You should try to keep up," Alice said, giggling.

"Alice, be nice. People don't have minds as quick as ours. I would have been confused, too if I were her," Bella said. I wondered randomly what they were talking about when they were in my room earlier.

I hadn't realised I had voiced my question until she said, "I was asking him who was with Nessie. Rosalie and Emmett and Jasper are. They don't...particularly like being here."

"Oh. What were you saying before he arrived?"

"Oh, i was saying that what you said about the chairs was very deep, and that it may be a little personal as well..."

"Oh, yeah, maybe." Damn, she saw right through me. That was exactly why I kept them. I couldn't bring myself to throw them out or fix them up in any way. I was staring into space again, at the cclock for some reason. I woke up from my trance, and the clock read 10:23. Crap, i should go to sleep.

"Okay, I'm going to bed. Um, you can stay later, i guess, just...turn of the lights and lock the door when you leave. Thanks. Oh, and don't forget our deal, Alice."

"Duh, I'm a vampire. I have great memory. Of course I won't forget," she said. That was kind of stupid of me. I walked to my room and changed into Pj's, and layed down. I was exhausted, and sleep came quickly.

A/N: Wow, that was a short chapter.
