Okay so I can totally relate with Bella in this chapter. I don't like shopping but my friend Alecs does and She reminds me so much of Alice. I swear we spent like 2 hours in store. I just sat there watching her try things on over and over again. I put in the part about Edward warning Bella in the last chapter because her mom had tried to warn me and I didn't listen. I should've had Bella learn from my mistake but atleast I know she feels my pain now. Once again thanks to Twilightlover44 you seriously are the best you review like every chapter and always give me the best ideas. You guys should check her out. Oh and the next 2 chapters are going to be a little long and maybe a little boring but bear with me please it's all leading up to something.
Once again I don't own Twilight if I did I would be with Robert Pattinson right now.........................*sigh* I love him!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My cell phone vibrated as I was getting ready to go shopping with Alice. It was her telling me she was outside. I took one last look in the mirror and headed for the door at vampire speed. I had asked Tanya after they left about why everyone had laughed when I asked how bad could it be. She tols me how Alice was completely obsessed with fashion. I got a little scared. I didn't really like to shop but I really wanted to get to know Alice.
On the way there Alice told me all about her family and the different places they had lived. I stopped breathing when she said the place they'd lived a little over a year ago. She said they'd lived in Forks, Washington but only stayed for three days. I suddenly knew why they looked so familiar. I had met them in Forks when I was human. Once I realized this, I figured that they would be furious with Tanya if they found out she hand changed someone there. Even they had already been gone for 3 months people could still assume the worst about them. So I vowed never to tell them who I was. Still I was curious as to why they had left all of a sudden but I was sure if she would remember me and I was afraid to act even remotely interested for fear that they recognize me.
Well pulled up to the mall at that very moment. I don't I had ever been this happy see a mall in my life. I knew from what Tanya said that Alice would be way to focused on shopping to ask me any questions about me life. I hadn't had a reason to lie since my transformation so I wasn't to sure if I would be able to pull it off.
Once we got inside there was no way for me to focus on my thoughts any longer. Alice pulled me into the first store and started shoving things into my arms for me to try on. We spent and hour and a half in American Eagle alone. I sudden understood for myself what Edward had been talking about. Though I hated shopping I actually had fun with Alice. I really liked her and I could tell we were going to be great friends.
We shopped and talked all day about our likes and dislikes. She talked alot about her family. I could tell she really loved them. Edward was the one she talked about the most. Other than Jasper of coarse. Edward seemed like a really good guy. I was practically falling in love with him just listening to her. I didn't undetsand why he didn't have someone so I asked her.
"Hey Alice why is Edward the only one in your family that doesn't have someone. He seems like a great just from what you've said. It seems sad that he hasn't found love yet."
"Well he has sort of. Thats why we left Forks." she said. I just looked at her confusion plain on my face so she went on. "See when we moved to Forks we met this girl. Edward took an interest in her right away. It was weird. He had asked her to hangout with him one day after school and she agreed. But about halfway through school I had a vision that he was going to kill her. Well I didn't actually see him killing her but I did seem them in this meadow and her dead body was in his arms. He loved her to much to put in danger like that so we left. He really hasn't been the same since we left but I know it would've been worse living with him if he had killed her. He wouldn't have been able to live with himself after that."
So that's why he left. He loved me and he thought he was going to kill me.
We pulled into the Cullens driveway and went straight upstairs to Alice's room. She wanted to play Barbie with me. Though I didn't exactly like sound of this I wanted to make her happy. Even after only knowing her for a short time I almost already felt like her sister. So I went to her oversized bathroom. I sat there for what seemed like hours and waited patiently for her to be done. I got up and looked in the mirror. I looked amazing. Alice was jumping up and down and pulling me towards the stairs. Eager to show everyone her knew creation.
I could feel everyone staring at me as I walked down the steps and I knew I would be blushing right now, if that were still possible. Everyone complimented me on how pretty I looked. Everyone except Edward, he just stared at me. I looked straight into his eyes and was instantly lost in them. It's weird even after not seeing him for over a year and having only known him for a short time, it was like we picked up right were we left off.
I looked away quickly and went to sit on the couch and watch the guys play video games. They playing guitar hero on the wii. I was axious to play I loved the Wii and I kill at guitar hero.
"I got next." I said. With that Emmett turned around a starred at me. I was confused I didn't unerstand the expression on his face. "What did I do something wrong?" I asked.
"No we're just not used to girls wanting to play. Alice and Rose don't really like video games." He said in a shocked tone.
"Well I love Video games. Do you mind if I play?" I asked hoping they would let me into there world of video games with them.
"Hell yeah." he said. "Just let me beat Jasper real quick and then I'd be glad to beat you to." Man he was cocky. I was bout to protest but I figured it would be better to act innocent and them kick his ass. He'll never see it coming. I heard Alice and Edward laugh behind me. Emmett turned and asked them what was funny they both just nodded. Jasper had just lost and now it was my turn.
I told him I had never played before and then asked him to show me how to play. He took a quick ten minute break to explain the game to me and then we started. I fumbled over a few note at the beging to give him some confidence and then I crushed him.
"YES!!!!" I yelled in victory. Emmett just stared in confusion and defeat.
"Wow Liz he I don't think Emmetts ever been speechless before." Edward said to me. I liked that he called me Liz. Everyone else called me Lizzy so it was like had his own nickname for me.
"I think he had finally met his match." Rose added with a laugh.
By this time Emmett had finally found his voice again. "How did you do that I thought hadn't played this before." He asked in amazment.
"Well I haven't played this version before. But I mastered all the others." I said with a little chuckle.
"Well then we are going have a rematch. this time on expert you totally tricked me and I took it easy on you." he said.
I sighed and started a new game. I crushed him once again. After that we spent the next three hours competing in different things and I beat him eveytime. I just finished beating him at armwrestling for the tenth time when declared another rematch. I sighed. I really didn't to continue with this. At that moment Edward appeared behind.
"Just let him win or you'll never be done." He wispered in my ear. When his breath hit my face it sent a jolt of electricity through my whole body.
"Fine." I said defeated. It's not in my nature to let someone beat me, but if I don't i'll probably be here for the rest of my existence until he finally beats me at something. So I let him win and then went to hangout with Rose and Alice
I found them upstairs in Rose's room sitting on her bed. I sat down and listened to there conversation. They were talking about Emmett and Jasper. I couldn't exactly join in because I didn't have anyone to talk about. My thoughts drifted to Edward downstairs. I was deep in thought, wondering what would've happened if he hadn't left. Obviously I would've died, but how would I have had with him before that happened? Enough time to love him? I wanted to tell him so bad after Alice had told me why they left. But I didn't want them to get mad at Tanya. I was pulled out of my reverie by Alice waving her hand up and down in front of my eyes.
"Lizzy." she said.
"Oh sorry. I tend to zone out into my own little world if I don't something demanding my attention." I informed them. They didn't look irritated or mad. So i figured they were used to it.
"It's ok Edward does it all the time." Alice said. "What were you thinking about anways?" She asked.
I didn't to tell her I was thinking about Edward. First because he is their brother and second because I didn't want to slip up and accidently tell them to much. I felt so close to them after such a short time that it was hard not to pour my heart out to them.
I made the mistake of looking at them. Their faces were covered in curiousity and concern. That was it, I couldn't stop my self. "Well I was thinking about Edward and what you had said about why you guys left Forks and then I was wondering about if you hadn't left how long would have I before I was killed. I was wondering if I would've had enough time to love him." When I finished they just sat looked at me in confusion.
"Wait Lizzy what are you talking about?" Rose asked. They hadn't understood me, I wonder if I could get away with just shrugging it off. Like maybe acting like I hadn't really said anything. I looked at there faces and knew that wasn't going to happen and that eventually they would get me to explain so I just gave in.
"Ok I didn't want to tell you guys because I didn't want to get mad at Tanya for changing me. I'm Bella. I used to live in Forks my dad was the police cheif there and I met you guys on your first day of school. At first I didn't remember you but when I did I was afraid that if you found out who I was you guys would get mad at Tanya for changing someone so close to where you had lived. Please don't tell anyone. I promised Tanya I wouldn't and after you said that Edward loved me and left cause he didn't want to kill me I'm afraid he would be more mad than anyone at her." This time they stared at me with blank expressions. Apparently nothing had registered yet.
We must have sat there in silence for atleast ten minutes before I heard Alice and Rose squeal. The next thing I know they were both hugging me and bouncing up and down on the bed.
"Oh my god Bella I can't believe this. Ofcoarse we aren't mad at Tanya though Carlisle had already told us what happened. Well not in detail. I mean he told Tanya had lost control and changed someone but he didn't tell that you had lived in Forks. How come you go by Lizzy now?" Rose asked.
"Well Tanya said that I should chance my name in case we ran into anyone that might recognize me. I didn't understand that until today when I realized who you were. But please don't tell Edward I've only known him for a littl while but something tells me that he wont be as happy as you guys if he finds out." I practically begged them not to say anything. They both agreed but looked at each with a face that I didn't understand. They looked at each with determination in there eyes and thought I was sure it had something to with me I didn't ask. They were planning something I could tell.
Ok so I know I said this chapter was going to be boring and it probably still was kind of boring. I only said that cause I wasn't planning on having them find out it was her just yet. But when I started writing I just let my ideas flow from my brain straight to my fingers. I like 3am so I hope it actaully makes sense and that it doesn't suck that bad. Anyways as always review please and let me know what you think.
