Ok so just so everyone knows I deleted the authors note! :)
Bella's POV
I'm free! I'm free! I'm free! I was so exuberant I could barely keep from yelling out loud! The smile that was plastered on my face, I'm sure I probably looked like a complete idiot, but I just couldn't help it.
I was ready to see if my legs would or wouldn't give out I hadn't been able to move in forever! I got up, but gripped Edwards hand just in case. I smiled wider at that- if that were even possible.
Edward's POV
The look on Bella's face made me so happy. From centuries of practice I was able to keep a straight face even though I felt like doing a touchdown dance. Oh, what I would give to see inside Bella's mind right this very moment.
Oh my gosh! We have to go shopping, today! Alice was squealing inside her mind if that were possible. I gave her a death glare to tell her to lay off!
Bella would never do that to me! She smirked and with that she danced over to Bella who was enjoying her new freedom of walking.
"Bella?" Alice batted her eyelashes and put on the pout that makes her an evil pixie.
Bella hadn't realized so she turned around and raised an eyebrow, but immediately let it drop when she saw the expression on Alice's face.
"You'll still go shopping with me today won't you? I mean I haven't been able to dress you or anything, and it's been a really long time." Alice said in a devastated tone.
I could see Bella believing Alice so I stepped in to help her.
"She just got her cast off today, Alice, I'm sure she's not in the mood for all of that." I added in an irritated tone.
"Bella?" She acted as if I hadn't spoken.
Bella nodded a weak nod and put on a fake smile that was completely noticeable, not that Alice cared whether people wanted to go shopping with her or not.
"Yay!" She sang while clapping her hands together and jumping up and down.
Then something occurred to me I had planned to take Bella back to the meadow again. So although I knew it would be useless, I tried once again to get Alice to let Bella stay with me.
"Actually I was planning on taking Bella to the meadow." I said matter-of-factly.
Bella's face immediately brightened as she lifted her head from her shoes and bored her eyes into mine.
"No!" Alice said in a voice that rang in finality. That tinkerbell always got her way!
"But if you just have to go. You can drive and hold our bags." She said in an exasperated voice. I mean it's not like I was asking her to work overtime or anything.
"Well" Alice said as if nothing had ever happened. "I'll help you get ready as soon as you eat." She said while pushing the both of us out the door.
She's going to trip on the third step. Alice thought.
About two seconds later and Bella tripped while I caught her.
"T-t hanks!" She stuttered.
Bella's POV
Ugh! Shopping, I mean not that I had ever been or anything, but just the idea of running around in stores and trying stuff on for hours sounded tough. From everything I had heard, shopping trips with Alice were nightmares, and I mean I just got my cast off! If you only saw how sad Alice looked you would know why my will faltered as soon as I saw the look on her face.
I was so caught up in my little reverie that I forgot to watch where I was going, and of course tripped. I was just about to meet my good friend Mr. Ground when two white hands flashed out in front of me and caught me.
"T-t-thanks!" Ugh stuttering. I hope I get over that soon.
He merely nodded and let go and I wondered if he felt the shock that ran through us when we touched.
I blushed when I started thinking of this Edward raised one eyebrow, but I just shook my head and was once again grateful for the fact that Edward couldn't read my mind.
By this time we were in the kitchen and he was fixing me a pop-tart. From as long as I was in the cast I had learned how to actually eat, but I still felt like a pig since no one else in this house ate.
"Thank you." I said as he sat the plate in front of me and poured me a glass of milk.
"Your welcome." Edward said while putting the milk back in the refrigerator.
"You know I can do things for myself." I said matter-of-factly to distract him from watching me eat. It was kind of uncomfortable.
"Well you just got your cast off today and you should rest." He said while boring his eyes into mine. I never could figure out why he was so interested in me.
"But wouldn't that mean I would want to do things for myself." I said with a smirk.
"Bella let me do things for you." He said with a smirk of his own.
I nodded not sure if I would be able to speak. Did I just hear that correctly? Edward Cullen wants to do things for me? My heart was in such a sprint I thought it would fly across the table and hit him in the face, not that it would hurt him. But that sure would be a sight to see.
"Hey little sis." Emmett said while picking me up and swinging me around in his arms causing me to choke on the last bite of pop-tart I had in my mouth.
My throat and chest were burning and I couldn't get any air to my lungs. I could feel my face turning purple and my ears began to ring. They still hadn't noticed that I couldn't breathe and all of the spinning from Emmett was making things worse. I really didn't want to throw up on him. I finally got the pop-tart down, but it went down the wrong hole.
Finally Edward noticed after what seemed like forever.
"Emmett her whole face is purple." He said.
Emmett set me down only long enough for me to sway back and forth once and then I was back in his arms bridal style.
I was gasping for air at least now I could get air to my lungs even though it felt like razor blades sliding up and down my throat.
Both Emmett and Edward let our a gust of air once my breathing was back to normal.
"Sorry really Bella." Emmett said.
"No no no its ok, promise." I said while giving him a peck on the cheek. I hopped out of his arms only to find myself in Edward's.
"What no kiss for me? You know I was the one whole told him that your whole face was turning purple." He said with that crooked grin that made me heart falter once.
I quickly pecked his cheek also as he stood me back upright on my feet.
"Bella!" Alice yelled. I turned to find Alice standing in the doorway with a grin plastered on her face bigger then the one I had on earlier today.
"Come on. Let's go I have to get you ready." She said while grabbing my arm and dragging me up the stairs and into her bedroom where she had an outfit picked out for me.
"Is that for you?" I asked in a puzzled tone.
"No silly. It's for you now go put it on and I don't won't to hear anything about it." She said in a voice that I dared to argue with.
I obeyed grabbed the clothes and went into the bathroom only to find the bathroom counter filled with every cosmetic known to man. I tried not to think about it too much as I jumped in the shower and quickly changed into the outfit Alice had me wearing.
I had to admit the girl had style, but it just wasn't me. It did look good on me just a little to revealing for my liking.
Alice had me in a blue jean mini skirt, with black Uggs, a black long-sleeved shirt that has a very low v-neck. (A/n. This girl at my school had this on the other day and it was really cute, but she couldn't even bend over or anything. And she didn't even get in trouble for her skirt being like six inches too short or her whole chest hanging out. Ugh! Now I would be in trouble for wearing that.)
Alice then ordered me to sit down as she started playing with my hair. She first blow-dryed it then straightened and curled it.
I didn't even know why Alice insisted on doing all of this. I was just going to look plain next to her anyways.
The whole time Alice was playing with my hair and face. I was in a different world, my happy place you could call it.
I didn't even realize we were almost done until Alice was snapping her fingers in front of my face telling me to open my eyes so that she could put on mascara. She finished with a little bit of lip gloss and ordered me to look in the mirror. I did as I was told afraid of what would happen if I didn't listen.
I didn't even recognize the girl in the mirror. Her face was completely natural looking but completely stunning at the same time. She had long gossamer eyelashes with plump pink lips. Her complexion was beautiful and she had long straight brown hair. Her body was beautiful and she filled out her outfit perfectly.
I let out an Alice-like squeal and hugged her.
"So you like it?" Alice said with a wide smile on her face.
I nodded while saying. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Alice how did you do that?"
"Easy." She said with a smug smile on her face.
"Get your stuff! It's already eleven and we won't have that much time if we don't go now!" She said in an irritated voice now.
Only eleven? How long was she planning on staying?
I quickly got my coat and made my way to the stairs. This time I concentrated hard on the stairs and didn't realize until I bumped into Rosalie that I was at the foot of the stairs.
"You look amazing." She said, while I blushed.
"Rose are you not coming?" Alice said.
"No, Emmett and I are going to go hunting today along with Jasper."
I didn't make out the rest of their conversation since I had just spotted Edward standing in the corner looking me over. He gave me a smug smile and a wink that made me blush a deep crimson.
"Well it's time we get going." Edward said while opening to door and motioning for us to come.
"See you later Jazzy!" I heard Alice say.
I walked through the door followed by Alice and Edward with everyone else saying things like "Have fun" and "See you later"
Edward opened the door for me in the passenger seat while Alice jumped in the back, and we began racing through the streets to the mall.
Review Please! Sorry it took so long I feel horrible.
Shopping next!
And I promise next chapter will be up in 2-3 days!
