Namaste!
Thanks for the 100+ reviews~! It seriously made my morning a little brighter!
Yeah, my Bella is cool in a really realistic and teenaged/adult way. They let things get awkward before because...they figured they were just friends...and now? Ha, not even I know. I figure you guys are thinking that Bella has forgotten about Holmes and all, but she hasn't. I just don't want my Bella and Alice, and Bellice essentially, to suffer heartache for the entire surfing competition period. Ya get me?
Anyway, get straight on to the reading, guys! what are you reading this crap for?
"Nice of you to join us, ladies." Emmett raised a brow at the way the girls seemed to move together. "Niiiceee."
"What?" Bella looked confused, but she knew the look the bear of a Cullen was giving them. "Oh, please."
"Hey, I didn't say anything." He winked at her and turned to Rosalie, who was grinning like mad. "Rosie, do you think it's time to get ready to go? We've got like five minutes."
"Yeah, that would be most...pleasurable." Her blond hair had never been so tempting to cut before as it was now. Emmett roared as he laughed, swatting Edward's back.
"Ow." He whined, rubbing his back, "Take it easy, Em."
"Hey, Bella. Still with them, are you?" Jacob walked up to them and frowned, "You know, I was tempted to tell your dad about your little performance last night."
"I don't really care." Bella blinked her eyes as she hugged Alice from behind, her chin resting on the other girl's shoulder. "Can't bring me down today."
"...What?" Jacob's eyes went from Alice to Bella, and back a couple of times. He seemed to shake his head and then look back at the two of them. "No way."
"Way, now go a-way." She chuckled, and Jacob stomped his foot in the sand.
"There's no way in fuck your gay, Bella!" This called the attention of almost everyone within a twenty foot radius, and they all looked at Bella and Alice with new eyes. "No fucking way!"
"Jacob, please, you're acting like an idiot." She rolled her eyes at her ex-best friend. "Seriously."
"Bella, we're meant to be together! When will you understand that? I did not spend the past eighteen years of my life trying to get you to like me for nothing! No way!" He seemed to pace, running his hands through his hair, "I...I'm going to tell your dad! That's what I'll do!"
"Go ahead." Bella didn't care, and nuzzled her nose into soft black, sans gel spikes, pressing a kiss to the scalp beyond the hair. "You still smell nice."
Alice giggled, "Thank you."
"Ugh. That's disgusting!" Jacob walked up to the two giggling girls and was going to shove them or something equally childish, when Emmett pushed in front of him, glaring like a papa bear.
"Where you going?" Emmett placed a beefy hand on Jacob's shoulder, making him flinch. "You stay away from my girls. You hear me, Black?"
"Whatever." He spat at Emmett, and the bear just let him. He'd get his, no doubt. "Bella, you're fucking disgraceful."
"You probably don't know what that means." She chuckled and then whispered in the other girl's face, "You, however, are full of grace."
"Why, aren't you just full of compliments today?" Alice turned around in the girl's arms, "I like that. Keep 'em coming."
"Oh, she plans to." Emmett guffawed, and Rosalie couldn't help but laugh too. That was just too funny! "So, how was it last night?"
"Last night? You mean, this morning." Bella nodded, and Alice blushed darkly, swatting the girl's shoulder with a shocked face.
"Bella!" She tackled the girl and covered her mouth with her hand, "Don't say anything to Emmett!"
"Why?" She tried to say through the small hand over her mouth.
"Because he'll tease us all day!" Her amber eyes were full of mirth, and Bella couldn't help but chuckle quietly, "I don't think you can survive that!"
"Oh, I think I can." She sat up, bringing the other girl with her into a seated position. She blushed when she realized she was sitting on the taller girl's lap, "Or...are you ashamed of me?"
"No, no. I'm not." She giggled, "On the contrary, I am quite proud of you."
"Perfect." They laid their foreheads together, blushing softly.
FLASH
"The same as yesterday, Bella, I caught you in a seriously cute moment!" Angela gushed, "And look whose here with me today!"
"Hey, Bella! It's been forever since I've seen you!" Jessica practically jumped on the couple, "God, I've missed you!"
"I missed you too, Jess." She pushed the girl away from her and stood up, bringing the tiny surfer up with her. "You remember Alice."
"Of course. There's no way in hell I'd ever be able to forget someone like her." Jessica chuckled, "Oh, where is Micheal?" She glanced around curiously, "He was just here..."
"Here I am!" Said boy came out from behind Emmett. He had been talking to him, apparently, "Did you see that guy? He's huge!"
"A man's man, apparently." Jessica smiled, waving at Emmett, who waved back. "Angela, how are the waves looking today?"
"They look great! Perfect for riding! Not like yesterday, just some rather small skimming," The tallest girl adjusted her glasses, "I'm in suspense of a great surfing day, guys."
"We are, too." Alice yawned, "If only I could stay awake."
"How many hours did you sleep last night?" Eric gaped, "I figured you guys would have conked out early or something. You guys are the main event around here."
"We fell asleep at around two thirty." Bella yawned in contagion, "So...less than four hours."
"Jesus." Jessica frowned, "No wonder you guys look like death."
"He's certainly dressy and handsome." Rosalie sighed, "And that's because those two don't have hangovers like we do."
"You..." Angela palmed her forehead, "Nevermind."
"You get used to it after a while." Bella chuckled, "I'm already long used to their weirdness. It doesn't faze me anymore."
"Not yet it doesn't." Rosalie promised, "Great color of bathing suits, by the way! It's almost like we color coordinated."
"We did." Alice deadpanned.
"Oh." The blond smirked, "I suppose we did."
"We did." Bella reassured. "You even made a chart. Tomorrow is green."
"Well, shit." Rosalie just laughed, "Then yes. We did."
"What are we talking about again?" Emmett frowned. "Because all I'm hearing is 'We did.' over and over, and it's kinda giving me a headache. That might just be the hangover, though."
"Aaaand Good Morning Olympia!" The voice that came on was different than the one guy from yesterday. Sounded cuter, too. "Welcome to Day 2 of the Surfing Competition! Today we will be doing single surfer heats, which means one member from each team. In today's lineup, the competitors go as follows."
"Here we go." Alice muttered, rolling her eyes.
"For the first round, we have The Cullen Five's Jasper Hale, The Traveling Trio's Laurent Gathegi, and The La Push Team's Jared!"
"Great. The sooner I can get this done, the better I'll feel." Jasper sighed, dragging his board behind him. "I have such a huge headache, I don't even know if I can paddle this morning."
"That's what you get for drinking so much." Edward chuckled, but gasped jokingly when his boyfriend flipped him the bird. It had been Edward who talked him into drinking so much in the first place. "Baby, you wound me!"
It was apparent that it was Rock Genre Day, as they played Black Stone Cherry's White Trash Millionaire. Was that considered a racial thing against Jasper?
"Hey, has anyone seen Seth?" Emmett asked suddenly, and everyone felt a little guilty. They had forgotten all about the La Push kid their team was 'fostering' in stead of La Push. "I haven't seen him since last night."
"Let me go ask his sister where he is." Bella spotted Leah talking with Sam, and walked briskly in her direction. When she tapped her shoulder, the girl spun around casually, smiling at Bella, a little in shock.
"Hey, Bella. Nice to see you on the beach finally." She said nervously, and the pale brunette smiled back, and nodded.
"It's nice to be on the beach finally. Hey, I was just wondering if you'd seen Seth? We haven't seen him since yesterday." Bella bit her lip, "Nothing bad's happened, right? We're all worried."
"Nothing too bad. He's just got a mega hangover from last night. Kid dipped too hard into the hard liquor from our group last night. Said he's sorry, though. He feels really bad that he can't come and surf for you guys." She sighed, running her hands though her hair, "He couldn't even walk this morning. His said his head felt like it was going to explode."
"Oh, man. That's horrible. Well, tell him that we missed him, and to take some painkillers. That'll make him feel better in no time. Thanks for your help, Leah." Bella hugged her old friend, and walked back to her group. She could practically feel Jacob's glare on her back.
When she was back with the Cullens, they all but forced the information out of her.
"He drank too much. Sleeping it off." They all released the breath they were holding and relaxed. "He's got a dinosaur stomping on his head as we speak. He isn't coming today."
"That's fine, as long as the kid's alright." Edward smiled, "Look at my Jazz."
He was already surfing and kicking out his moves with precision. He looked amazing out there, and Bella made it a point to tell Edward that. Over and over again.
"He certainly does, doesn't he?" The bronze haired man smiled, "My Jazzy."
"You're so sappy." Emmett wrinkled his nose, "No wonder fan girls love it."
"You love it, too. So shut up." Green eyes twinkled. "Besides, Bella needs to learn it from somewhere."
"Anyway, that was awkward." Alice chuckled, "And I am leaving now."
"Oh? Why?" the bear of the Cullens frowned, "Where are you going?"
"They actually already called me up next. I'm surfing with Leah and Victoria." Everyone stiffened. Everyone except Bella. "What's with all the long faces?"
"Be careful?" Rosalie hugged her sister tightly, "I'd hate it if anything ever happened to you."
"Nothing is going to happen." She scoffed, "They're girls. What could they do to me?"
"We don't know Leah, and Victoria is a stone cold bitch. You do the math." Edward pinched the bridge of his nose, "Please be careful."
"Leah won't do anything." The only brunette smiled, "She's one of my oldest friends, and she's seen me with Alice. She wouldn't dare do anything to her."
"Then...keep your front to Vicky." Emmett sighed, "Just in case."
"Got it. Bye, Bella." Alice winked and ran off, mesmerizing Bella with the way her ass cheeks bounced in her red bikini bottoms, surfboard over her head in her hands. 'Shiiiiiit.'
"Hey, dude, you'll get sand in your mouth that way." Emmett laughed, slinging his thick arm around her thin shoulders, "Though, it isn't a bad way to go."
"Guys!" Jasper came up quickly, "That was wicked."
"What was?" Rosalie flicked her hair over her shoulder again. Totally Rosalie.
"Surfing to rock. It was amazing." He put a hand over his heart, "It was like having a direct line to your heart, and it made me surf even harder than normal. I scored perfectly."
"Awesome, dude." Emmett high-fived him, and Rosalie kissed his cheek happily, her leg popping up behind her in an obnoxious way. It was cute.
"And there they go! The Cullen Five's Alice Cullen, The Traveling Trio's Victoria Howard, and the La Push Group's Leah!" Bella idly wondered where the Latino guy from yesterday went. He's probably smashed, too. "Whoa, what's this? A side surfer has accidentally drifted into Alice Cullen's path! Uh-Oh!"
"WHAT?" Bella's eyes squinted to look out to where Alice was on what seemed to be a one-way path to crashing into another, way inexperienced, surfer. Just as she was going to touch down on him, she hard swerved, and rode up higher on the curve of the wave, coming back down just as the surfer was able to get out of the way. "Thank God."
"That was close, Alice! Good maneuvering, girl!" Yeah, no shit, Sher...uh...
"Ye of little faith, we are professionals. We don't get caught up in accidents like that." Jasper chuckled, throwing an arm around Bella, "Seriously, Alice is the best of us all. If anyone is going to get into an accident, it would be me or Emmett."
"This is our usual lineup, by skill. Alice, Me, Edward, Emmett, and then Jasper." Rosalie smiled, smacking her red bikini'd ass. "Oh, listen. This is a good song."
"Hells yeah." Emmett was tapping his fingers to the drums' beat. "Gotta love that girl."
"Who is this? She sounds familiar." Bella tapped her chin, "Really familiar."
"It's Halestorm. The song is called 'What Were You Expecting?' Kinda fitting, considering there are three women surfing right now." Emmett grinned, "We went to a concert once, and they all stood in a circle with the drums, beating down on them and actually playing a song and singing. It was awesome."
"They sing that song...It's Not You, right?" Bella blushed, "We sang that song once...back when we left the club."
"Ah, yes. Alice has their whole album on her iPod." Rosalie turned her blue eyes back out to the water, smiling when her sister was running at them once again. "Heads up."
"I got brownie points for missing that guy and not wiping out!" Alice shook her head, making Bella giggle, holding her hands up to protect her face. "Was I awesome today, too?"
"Of course you were. You look a lot like a...wild cat out there." The brunette cupped the pixie's cheek and smiled warmly, "Depends on the speeds you go. If you go fast and you bend low, you look like a cheetah. If your up high and you are half crouched, your thighs make you look like a panther."
"That's so cool. Nobody's ever told me that." She ran a hand through her messy, flat black locks, "Thank you, Bella."
"Hey, Surfer-Ali, incoming." Rosalie stood up straight as an equally wet and excited Leah came up to where they stood.
"Hey, Bella." Leah greeted, squeezing water from her hair with her hands before turning to grasp at one of Alice's little pale hands, "Alice, you were great out there! I don't know how you avoided that kid, but that was just...oh, it got me! You gotta show me how you did that sometime! Please?"
"You're an eager learner, just like your brother." Alice blinded the girl with a smile, and nodded, "I'd be happy to show you how. Maybe tonight, before the star-gazing?"
"That would be perfect, oh my god, I'm so happy, thank you so much!" Leah couldn't help herself but hug Alice tightly, "Gosh, I remember the first time I saw you on TV surfing in the Amateur Nationals! You were so tiny, the bigger surfers made fun of you... But I cheered you on! I did! And now, you're a LEGEND."
She ripped herself away from Alice, who was already turning blue from lack of oxygen, "Oh, I'm sorry! I just get really excited... Right, Bella?"
"Yeah...I REMEMBER THAT!" She yelled suddenly, her chocolate eyes lighting up, "I remember we both cried because that little surfer cried!"
"Wait, what?" Rosalie looked confused, "What the hell is going on?"
"I used to spend the nights and stuff at Leah's house during the summer when my dad would go fishing with Jacob's dad. We'd stay up all night and we even made these...oh, God, that's embarrassing! You threw them away, didn't you? Please say yes!" Bella laughed aloud, blushing. "During the day, we would turn on the sports channel, and surfing always seemed to be on at that time. We were watching it early on in the tournament, and we saw a little tiny girl, around our age, maybe younger, who was standing there in her little yellow one piece bathing suit, with little braids and her yellow longboard."
"And then these bigger boys were making fun of her, and she started to cry." Leah, always a softie at heart, started to cry. Seriously. And Bella wasn't far behind her. "But she whipped their asses easy!"
"What year and area was that?" Alice jumped excitedly, "Bella, you saw me surf before!"
"I barely remember it, Ali." She smiled sadly at her little surfer crush, "But Leah might remember."
"Of course I remember." She laughed, "And YES, I still have the shirts we made then. Hell, looking at our bodies now, they probably still fit! I'll bring them tomorrow. It was Summer of 2000, and you were on the Gold Coast beach of Australia."
"I remember that. Scariest time of my life! I was only nine! You made shirts to cheer me on, Bellaaaa?" Alice's golden eyes were soft and wide. She looked much like a kitten, all cute and adorable and such.
"Well, if that isn't the cutest thing ever, I must be blind." Rosalie cooed, "I want so badly to see these shirts. What do they have on them? Glitter? Glue? Foam dinosaurs?"
"Actually, our shirts were legit." Leah grinned proudly, "We made jerseys."
"You were how old?" Emmett laughed, "Ten! Eleven, tops."
"I was ten." Bella pouted, "But like she said, they were pretty legit. Before we put them in the 'Any' Time Capsule, we sealed them airtight in plastic bags and then in a box to protect the plastic that was protecting the shirts."
"That sounds pretty legit." Rosalie nodded. "Who is next? This dude better get his shit together already."
"Hey, guys, I gotta go, but I'll be around, okay?" Leah waved at them hurriedly, taking her board with her as she met up with her team before the next round started.
"Aaaaaand it's time for the next round! The Powerhouses! The Cullen Five's Emmett is up, along with The Traveling Trio's James, and The La Push Group's Sam!"
"It's about time for a challenge." Emmett punched his fists together like a boxer and grinned, "Let's get some, baby."
"Be careful, Emmett." Rosalie warned, "I love you."
"I love you too, babe." The bear threw his arms around his wife and practically stuck his tongue down her throat, causing her to make...noises. Bella and Alice gagged playfully, making throw up noises while everyone else just laughed. "I always have to be careful, because I have a hot babe waiting for me on the beach!"
"That's the spirit, Emmy!" Alice punched his arm, yelping and bringing her hand back to her chest. "Shit, it felt like hitting concrete!"
"That's because I am concrete." He threw his arms up and roared, powering up the fans that crowded the eighteen wheeler obnoxiouzoid. "Turn that shit up!"
The volume did indeed turn up, and everyone cheered louder than before. Emmett threw his board into the water, grinning like a fool as he beat James and Sam out, so he got to surf his waves first.
"It's like they knew..." Bella chuckled, "All American Nightmare? That's...Emmett."
"That it is." Rosalie whimpered, licking her lips. "Shit, I can't wait until he gets back. We're gonna go for a little hike in the woods."
"Dear Lord." Edward wrinkled his nose in amused disgust. "Even I am not that bad."
"Yeah, well, you don't have a vagina that enjoys getting plowed into." The blond bit her lip, squeezing her thighs together. "Jesus."
"I do like getting plowed into, though." He guffawed at the pale look on Rosalie's face, "And boy does it feel good!"
"Okay, the feeling is officially gone." She gagged, "That's so gross, Eddie."
"Well, you said the V word, and I didn't even say a dirty word." He shrugged, "So, your fault."
"Can we all just stop talking about it? Thank you." Alice sent her siblings dirty looks, and Jasper just tried to keep his breathing under control.
"Ooh, did you see that?" Bella jumped, hands at the sides of her head, "Shit, that must hurt!"
"What happened?" Edward stopped his grinning and looked panicked. "Is Emmett okay?"
"He's fine. He's already on the beach." Alice bit her lip. "It was James and Sam. They collided as they were speeding down the wave."
"Fuck..." Rosalie ran her hands through her hair, "Woodsy feeling is back."
"Great." Bella threw her a grin, "Have fun, yeah?"
"Fuck yes." As soon as Emmett was running at them, he seemed to catch Rosalie's 'bitch in heat' pheromones, and carried her straight into the thick trees. He didn't even tell them how he scored, but as far as they could hear...he was definitely scoring.
"Okay, I'm officially grossed out." Alice whimpered, "They sound like wild animals."
"That's because you haven't heard yourself." Jasper snickered, covering his mouth while hiding behind Edward, who laughed out loud. "You sound like a lioness roaring."
"You think so?" Bella spun around to face the two gay guys, face red in annoyance. "Because last I heard, she sounded like a woman."
"Oh shit."
"That's what I thought, Sparkles." They could hear Emmett laughing from their spot, and Rosalie's moan of frustration.
"God DAMN IT, EMMETT! FUCKING POUND ME!"
"Jesus, we have to leave the immediate area." Jasper sighed.
"I'm out of here already." Edward kissed his cheek before scurrying to his board and taking off for the water as if there was a fire under his ass. "Wish me luck!"
"Next round is The Cullen Five's Edward Cullen, and...The Traveling Trio has no more members, so we will only be doing pairs now. From The La Push Group, please welcome Quil!" The crowd of females cheered only when Edward's name was called, and all was silent for the La Push boy. Aww.
"Come on, ladies, you know I'm hot fun!" The boy in question pouted, almost kicking his board into the water. "What, you don't want me to surf, or what?"
Nobody answered that, so he frowned, cussing aloud.
"Fine! I forfeit!" Quil grit his teeth, stomping back to his group, getting bitched out almost immediately by Jacob. "Fuck, Jack, man, I don't stand a chance against him. Just leave me the fuck alone already. You made what was supposed to be fun into something of a revenge thing or whatever, and I hate it! I'm fucking leaving!"
Girls began to swarm him then, cooing about how he didn't have to leave, but if he wanted to, they would go along with him. How thoughtful.
Edward stood there as if to say, "What now?"
"The judges have decided to replace Quil with Paul! Give it up, ladies! Here's one hunk of man, right here!" A loud snort could be heard from the woods.
"Hurry up in there, it's getting weird!" Alice yelled over her shoulder, and a small scream could be heard. The pixie turned to Bella and whispered in her ear, "Would it be bad of me to think that's kinda...hot?"
"Not really. I think it is, too." The brunette grinned.
"I knew you guys were sickos." Jasper chuckled quietly, making both girls jump.
"Fuck off, Jasper." Bella muttered, much to the blond man's amusement.
"I would...if Edward was here." Fucking shit.
"Whatever." Alice giggled at him, waving him away in a 'shoo' motion."Go over there or something."
"And get closer to Tarzan and Jane? Yeah, right." Jasper settled between the two girls, getting snuggly fairly quickly. "Oh, this is nice."
"Glad you think so." The main-lander snorted. "Edward's on."
Three pairs of eyes trained themselves on the bronze haired gay of the family, watching his every move. He glided across the water as if he'd been born on it. It took Jasper's breath away, and he clutched at his heart.
"Hey, are you okay?" Bella asked slightly panicked, "Alice! The inhaler!"
"No, no, silly Bella." Alice pulled her hand to get her to leave the blond man alone, "He's awestruck with his love. Much like you get when you see me."
"But you don't know if I see you." Raised brow. "You always ask me."
"Oh, I ask, but I have seen you gawking at me, and to tell you the truth, when I see you watching, I always give it my all. Is why I've been scoring perfectly recently." She giggled, "You make me want to show you my best."
"Then, I'm glad you catch me watching you." The taller girl nodded happily, "I'm very glad."
"Perfect." They snuggled up closer to Jasper, who reached an arm around both girls, squeezing them, "Jazzy, you happy right now?"
"Just look at his face! He's so...it's erotic, almost." Bella nodded to his words. He knew what he meant fairly well. "Oh, and thanks for letting me sit between you. Makes me feel a little more loved, ladies."
"No problem." Bella leaned her head against his shoulder. "You're kinda soft."
"You're kinda soft, too." He chuckled, "Softer than Ali over here."
"I'm an athlete. I have to be hard and toned." She made her face scrunch together, "How else would I be able to wear bathing suits all the time? I'd get fat!"
"Are you trying to say something to me, Ali?" Bella half glared at her best friend. "Don't make me use your special nick name."
"Oh, the horror." Alice rolled her eyes. "And no, I wasn't saying anything. You look amazing in swim suits. You know you do."
"Of course. Doesn't mean that I mind hearing compliments." She sighed, "But if Ali-baby doesn't want to tell me nice things, I won't force her."
"A-Aww." Jasper squealed, squeezing both girls. "Did you just hear what she called you, Alice? She called you-"
"Bella, no fair." The pixie pouted, eyes watering, "You...I, you know you're beautiful! I think you're beautiful! And soft! I love soft! You're so soft, so I must-" She bit her tongue. She'd already said too much, damn it! "You're absolutely gorgeous."
"Why, thank you, Ali-baby. You're gorgeous too." Brown bangs fell into the owner's face, covering her eyes. "Ugh. This hair." She blew it up, revealing her eyes to adoring golden ones before her chocolates were covered by her hair once again. "I swear, I'm taking scissors to these things, first chance I get."
"Don't do that..." The tiny surfer giggled, "You'll get hair-cutter's syndrome."
"What does that even mean? Is that even real?" Bella pursed her lips. "Because I doubt that I would get that."
"It's what teenagers get when they cut their own hair for the first time. They want it to look different after they cut it a few days after they first cut it, so they take scissors to it every other day until there isn't any more hair." the pixie shrugged as best as she could underneath the muscled arm she was trapped by. "Though, I have never had that. My hair is professionally cut."
"Yeah, by our dear, sweet mother, and a butcher knife." Edward laughed as he caught up with everyone and kissed his boyfriend's lips. "You should have left your hair long, Ali."
"No. You guys kept pulling it when we were first learning how to surf. No way in hell was I going to keep it long for that." She bit her lip, "Jazz? Can you let us go now? My back is starting to hurt."
"Mine, too." Bella was turning red, "Except mine is already getting to the point of physical agony."
"Oh, right." He released them, and Bella had pulled back so quickly, she landed backward on the sand, legs spread eagle. "Sorry!"
Alice was there suddenly, hugging her with her hips between those widespread legs. "Maybe you should close your legs."
"Maybe you should let me close them. Then I would." The brunette chuckled, nuzzling into the tiny surfer's hair.
"Time for the next heat! We have in our lineup, The Cullen Five's Rosalie Cullen and The La Push Group's Jacob! Yeahh!"
A moan could be heard from the trees behind them as Rosalie attempted to talk to them.
"A-Ali go for me, damn it! I can't stop right now!" Everyone flinched and turned to Alice, who huffed. Of course, as their leading lady, she would be used to substitute anyone who doesn't show up. "Please?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Alice huffed, grabbing her shortboard and winking at the brunette that stole her heart away, "Be back in a few."
"I'll be waiting." Bella nodded happily.
Once Alice got near the water, Jacob came out of nowhere, getting up in her grill.
"Watch yourself out there, Cullen. Wouldn't want anything to happen to the little princess of the Cullen Five, now would we?" He bowed as if trying to be majestic, but it just made him look like an idiot. "After today, I want you to stay away from Bella."
"Too bad that I don't really care about what you want, huh?" She giggled, her amber eyes harsh in the light. "If you think threats will work with me, your wrong. How long have you been surfing? Two years? Three, at the most? You're still horrible at it."
"I've been surfing much longer than that!" Jacob flexed his arms, and Alice wasn't affected by it. She just shrugged, "Then, your skill embarrasses you. You'd think that after surfing longer than three years, you'd be better than a monkey on a banana peel. I guess you had a teacher who was also crappy."
"Cullen!" He began to quiver, and threw his fist at her. She, of course, was ready for that and ducked, kicking a leg out to knock him over. When his back was in the sand, she wrinkled her nose, and walked away, taking her board with her to the very edge of the water.
"Whoa! Jacob takes a fall! To little Alice Cullen!" The fans began to laugh at his humiliation, and pointed at him. He tried his best to keep from crying, so he got up as quickly as possible and darted into the water, ignoring the warnings they had started to shout to him. Alice was yelling something, too, but once he was neck high in the water, he knew he probably should have listened.
"Jacob, where are you today?" Jacob snorted and felt something huge brush against him. 'Fuck my life, fuck my life, fuck my fucking life!' "We've got Orcas out there, bro! Swim back to shore!"
"Shit, shit, shit..." Jacob chanted as she paddled as quickly as possible back to the beach. Once he was waist deep in the water, he looked back to see four fucking huge killer whales playing on the surf. 'Where the fuck were these overgrown fish earlier?'
"Excuse me, Jacob." Alice pulled her shortboard over her head and whistled over to her group. "Don't feel bad. They are pretty scary, considering their bigger than us and all."
The rest of the Cullen Five ran toward the water, boards in hand.
"Whoa, whoa, where's the fire, Cullen Five?" The DJ was beside himself in confusion, and possibly worry. "There are killer whales out there!"
"I'm getting some first!" Emmett beat his chest and splashed into the water, followed by his wife, who stuck close to him. If anyone could keep her safe from killer whales, it was her husband and first love.
"Hey, no fair! I saw them first!" Alice squealed, running in with Edward and Jasper on each side of her. "What's with the flanking?"
"Don't want you getting dragged off with them, now do we?" Jasper winked, and Edward slapped her ass.
"Mom would kill us if she knew what we were doing." He laughed aloud, "We left Bella with Leah. Said we would get her once we came back to shore."
"Perfect!" Alice paddled out harder, coming close to Rosalie and Emmett. "Are you guys ready?"
"Hell yes!" Emmett grinned, "The waves will be huge because they're rocking the waters!"
"Finally..." Rosalie panted as they slowed to a stop right before the waves began. They could see a few dorsal fins and grinned. "It's a Matriline. A mother and her daughter. An older daughter, and two teenage girls."
"So we're surfing with four hot mamas." Edward chuckled, "Super."
"The waves are starting to crest. Let's hit it." Alice motioned for the two on the outside to go first, which was Rosalie and Jasper. They went down the wave, pleasing the youngest of the Orcas. They surfed behind them, on their backs.
Rosalie couldn't help but laugh at the sight of the whales being silly, and looked over at Jasper, who was hooting and having a roaring good time. You only get to surf with Killer Whales once in a blue moon, after all. They hadn't even expected to see any, considering the season they were in.
"Now you guys." Alice ordered of Emmett and Edward, who poked her in the sides.
"We aren't leaving you out here with the big fish by yourself." Edward sighed, "Let's go together."
"Fiinne." Alice pouted, "I wanted to surf with the matriarch."
"And you will, if that," Emmett pointed behind them to the huge fin that was coming at them, "is anything to go by."
"Think we've overstayed our welcome?" Edward asked nervously.
"Nah. I think she's just getting frustrated of us being out here for so long and not doing anything." Alice giggled, hand over her mouth, "What did Bella look like when she heard the word 'Orcas' and I called you guys out?"
"She was terrified. She was just..a blubbering mess." Edward chuckled, "She really likes you if she gets so worked up about you just surfing, and she cries when you surf with giant killer whales. You gotta teach her to live a little."
"She'll be furious with me." Alice's golden eyes widened, her hands coming up to the sides of her face, "Oh shit, she'll scream. She'll yell."
"Get used to it. All women do that." Emmett chuckled. "My babe's already on the beach waving at us. We gotta go now."
The three of them nodded, and kicked off into one of the biggest curling and curving waves they'd ever seen on First Beach. The matriarch whale and her oldest daughter were in the water, right behind them, and Alice looked back once and felt a little fear and respect in her heart. What the fuck had they been thinking?
She looked ahead and saw the water thinning out. They were almost to shore. Aww.
"That was much too short." Alice grumbled. "I-Is that MOM on the beach?"
"ALICE, EMMETT AND EDWARD CULLEN!" Oh shit. Mama bear was pissed. She also, had a loudspeaker in hand, screaming at them.
The Orca heard her yelling, and grew curious, so once the waves crashed onto the beach, Alice, Emmett and Edward grabbed their boards and ran onto the beach laughing. The whales came onto the beach too, making those cute, booming noises. It almost put Emmett to shame. Almost.
"And you? Back to the ocean before I grill you for dinner!" She shooed them, and the whales got the picture. They backed up into the water after snorting at her, and swam off lazily. "What were you guys thinking?"
"ALICE!" Bella ran as quickly as she could, and couldn't seem to figure out how to work the brakes, so she crashed right into the surfing pixie. They tumbled to the floor due to the force she'd used to tackle her, and when soft hands gripped at her short black hair, she sighed and cooed to comfort her. "Wha-wha..."
"It's okay, Bella! I've surfed with wild Orcas before." She chuckled gently, running her hands through Bella's mahogany locks, "I'm perfectly safe right now."
"You could have been eaten, Ali..." She looked up then, and Alice felt endlessly guilty. Her eyes were swollen red, her bottom lip swollen from no doubt, biting down on it. "You could have died!"
"There hasn't been any record of Killer Whales ending a human life in the wild, Bells. Only in captivity, because they're very social creatures. They go off the deep end in captivity." The pixie hugged the brunette tightly, "Please, don't be afraid."
"I'm...not. Anymore." Bella climbed off the smaller girl and pulled away completely. "Your fans are cheering you on. Don't keep them waiting." And with that, she walked off, tipping over slightly. She had really been worried...
"Forget my fans." She whispered, going after her best friend slash love interest. When she interlaced their fingers, she smiled. "I'd rather be with you right now."
They walked on, Alice splashing her feet in the ankle deep water, as people gaped at them.
"What are they staring at?" Bella asked quietly, slightly embarrassed.
"Well, a number of things. I just got back from surfing with killer whales, I'm actually holding someone's hand that isn't related to me, and..." She looked down at her feet, surprise streaked across her face. "I'm standing in water."
"So? You surf in water." Bella chuckled, and then suddenly turned red. "Water..."
"Bella, you weren't afraid of it until I mentioned it!" Alice grinned, "You were so worried about me, you hadn't even once thought of the water!"
"I had thought of the water, but I didn't think it was all that important since you went off with giant black fish. I had to make sure that you were safe, even if it was from the very edge of the ocean." She blushed, "Don't think anything of it, though."
"Sure. I won't." Alice sighed, "I'm kinda tired. Where is everyone?"
"I think they cleared out to get ready for the after event." the brunette bit her lip, "Maybe we should clear out and get changed? I don't want you getting in the water again today."
"What about Leah? I promised to show her how to avoid other surfers on the water." the pixie turned pleading golden eyes to chocolates.
"Nope. That's why the whiteboard was invented." She chuckled, "No surf tonight."
"You're so mean!" Alice pouted, lip quivering as her eyes grew wider, tearing up.
"The puppy dog face won't work on me, either." The main-lander kept walking, tugging the shorter girl along. "Now, come on, Surfer-Ali. Time for a shower and a change of clothes."
"Grrreat." She whined.
Hope you guys liked it! Bella faced her fear! Yes, Emmett and Rosalie are hot rockin' bunnies. :D Til tomorrow!
