Hey everyone:) i decided to give you a chapter today because tomorrow i go back to school:( and i figured that i might not be able to update for a while. So here it is!


Bella POV

I woke up the in the morning to the light streaming in through the large window in Edward's room. I rolled over and closed my eyes. The light was too bright right now. I yawned and slowly opened my eyes. The sun made me squint. I looked over and saw that the bed was empty. I quickly shot up, which was a bad idea because soon felt dizzy and my vision was blurring.

After swaying for a moment my vision returned and I could see the room clearly. I looked at the alarm clock on Edward's bedside table and in bright red numbers it read nine thirty. I quickly opened the door and walked into the hallway. I could faintly smell the sweet aroma of pancakes.

I walked quickly down the stairs and stopped when I reached the door to the kitchen. Edward had his back to me as he was standing at the stove, pouring more pancake mix onto the pan. Emmett was sitting at the table devouring a plate of freshly made pancakes. Rosalie sat next to him as she filed her nails. Jasper was leaning in the open fridge looking for something.

None of them had noticed me standing there until Alice skipped into the kitchen from behind me and chirped, "Good morning, Bella."

Then everyone turned to look at me. I could feel a blush creeping on my cheeks. Rosalie huffed at me before returning to filing her nails. Jasper gave me a small grin before returning to scouring through the fridge.

Emmett gave me a muffled greeting before being slapped in the back of the head by Alice. "Haven't you heard not to talk with your mouth full?" she questioned. Then she giggled and walked over to the stove to take Edward's place in making the pancakes. He then walked over to me and pulled me into a hug. "Good morning." he said with a grin. "Good morning." I replied. "Are you hungry?" he questioned. Before I replied my stomach gave a loud growl. "I'll take that as a yes." he smiled before pulling me over to the table.

I sat down as he brought me a plate of pancakes and a glass of milk. I quickly devoured the delicious breakfast.

As I got up to clean off my dishes Alice skipped over to me. She quickly grabbed the plate and glass out of my hand and set them on the counter. "Bella, you don't need to worry about that right now." She said after obviously seeing my look of confusion. "We need to go get ready for the prom tonight." she continued. "Alice, its only around ten o'clock." I said in disbelief. "I know!" she yelled, "we only have seven or eight hours to get ready!" she exclaimed as if that wasn't enough time. She grabbed my wrist and started dragging me upstairs.

I saw Edward give me a look of sympathy before I was pulled into Alice's bedroom.

………………………………

It seemed like I had been sitting here forever when I know it has only been a couple hours. Alice had given me a fresh manicure and pedicure before curling my hair with several different sizes of curling irons. She had just left the room for a moment to retrieve something when Edward came in.

"Ed-" I was cut off by him putting his hand over my mouth. "Shh." he whispered. "Alice doesn't want me to see you until your done." he continued. "Oh." I said, realizing my mistake. "I just wanted to say hello since I didn't speak to you much this morning." he said with a smile. "Thanks, but I think you should leave before Alice comes back." I replied. "Your right." he said before giving me a soft kiss on the lips. "See you later." he said as he smiled and walked out of the room.

I was conveniently seated on a chair in the middle of Alice's room, surrounded by several beauty products. All of the mirrors were covered so I couldn't see myself until she was finished. Moments later Alice returned with a large bag. "Time for makeup!" she exclaimed.

She carefully opened up the bag and pulled out several different shades of eye shadow. "I had to steal some of Rosalie's makeup." she explained, "I don't think I have the right shade for you."

After careful and tedious work Alice was finished with my makeup. She ran into her humongous closet and returned with a large covered garment. "Go put your dress on." she ordered while pointing to the bathroom. I walked in and the mirror was covered with a sheet. I looked over to Alice with a confused look on my face. "I told you, you can't see yourself until your finished, and that includes the dress." she explained.

I walked back into the bathroom and closed the door. I took the dress out and pulled it over my head. I walked back out and Alice help zip-up the back. She then led me over to a tall body mirror she had covered with a sheet. In one fluid movement she pulled the sheet off the top of the mirror.

I froze. The dress looked the same as when I first tried it on. It still seemed to accentuate all of my curves. The difference this time was my face. My curls were pinned back from my face but they still cascaded down my back. My make up was smoky looking but it wasn't too dark that it overwhelmed my face. My lips had a little bit of lip gloss on them which made them look a little fuller.

"I didn't think you would need any blush." Alice said with a giggle. I turned to look at her and smiled, "Thank you, Alice." I said as she skipped over and gave me a hug, trying not to ruin my hair or makeup. "No problem." she said with a grin, "Now stay here for a moment while I get ready." she said.

As she skipped off to the bathroom to change I sat on her bed and grabbed my book that I brought in to read. After a few moments Alice came out of the bathroom in her pink dress. "I'm ready." she stated. "Now lets go downstairs" she said with a smile. She grabbed my wrist and pulled me along but suddenly stopped once we got to the top of the stairs.

"Come down when I say ok?" she whispered in my ear. "Ok." I replied. She obviously wanted to make a big entrance. Great I thought. I am probably going to trip or something. After a moment I could hear Alice call from downstairs, "Okay, Bella." I started to descend the steps carefully. One at a time, I thought. I didn't want to trip.

As I reached the last couple of steps I looked up to see Edward standing in front of me in a tux. He looked like a super model the way that the black contrasted with his skin. I looked over and Alice was jumping up and down in excitement while Jasper was trying to calm her down.

I hadn't been paying attention to my footing so I missed the next step and started to fall towards the floor. My face came within inches of the wood flooring before a pair of arms caught me and pulled me to my feet. "I told Alice that heels were a bad idea." I said, blaming my shoes. "You look gorgeous." Edward whispered in my ear. I blushed before replying, "You don't look to bad yourself." We smiled at each other before turning towards the door. Edward led me out the door and towards the car where Alice and Jasper were sitting in the back seat.

We sped toward the school and parked near a bright red BMW. I guess that Rosalie and Emmett were already here. Edward came and offered me his arm as we all walked in to the gym.

There was a small makeshift stage in the corner of the gym where a band was playing some songs. On the opposite wall there was a table with food and drinks where I saw Emmett. He spotted us and waved before piling more food on his plate.

Edward then grabbed my hand and pulled me toward the dance floor. "Edward, I can't dance." I tried to protest. "Just follow me." he said as he grabbed my hand and started to lead me around the dance floor. After I while a got used to the steps and no longer needed to look at my feet.

I looked around and saw Alice and Jasper dancing nearby. Rosalie was at the food table, wearing her stunning red dress, pulling Emmett toward the dance floor.

Then I shivered and looked up at the ceiling to see the air conditioner. I remember that Alice had given me a wrap that matched my dress but I had left it in the car. "Edward, can I borrow the keys?" I asked him. "He was already looking at me and had noticed that I was cold. "Sure, do you want me to go with you?" he asked. "No, its ok. I will be right back." I replied. "Ok." he said as he handed me the keys. He looked worried but I reassured him that I would be ok and that I would be back soon.

I walked out of the gym and toward the car. As soon I as reached the car I looked for the key to unlock the door. I shivered again. It was even colder outside than in the gym. I leaned in the car but I couldn't find it. I must of left it at the house. I stood up disappointed.

"Are you looking for this?" a deep voice questioned. I spun around to see an all too familiar figure standing in front of me holding a long silver shawl. I was frozen in shock. I couldn't seem to get my self to scream or run. It was dark out and I could barely see the person standing in front of me, but I knew who it was.

"Its nice to see you again, Bella." he said with and evil grin on his face. Then he took a step toward me and raised his arm. I felt a sharp pain on my head before I plunged into darkness.
