I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT.
"You have arrived to Dallas Texas" The GPS told us then shut off.
"WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FREAKING ROAD!" Rose screamed at it.
"Texas?" Jasper asked.
We should have arrived in Forks 79 minutes ago. Instead we were stuck in the middle of no where.
"Emmett let me drive" I told him.
"No. I can do this" Emmett said.
"Yes. Because your buying a GPS at dollar general was a good idea!" I yelled at him.
"Pull over. Maybe we won't kill each other" Liam said.
We pulled over to the side. The sun was just starting to rise.
"I hate my life" I complained as I got out of the van. Emmett stepped out.
"We are lost in the middle of no where! We celebrate thanksgiving in 42 hours! And I have to pee!" Rose screamed to anyone who would listen.
"Maybe we should call mom" Alice said.
"We don't want to give your mother a heart attack" I told Alice.
"Then what do we do?!" Alice yelled at me. She -like Rose- had to pee.
"Use goggle maps until we find a gas station that is open then as where we are and see if the have a road atlas!" I yelled at her.
"Well yippy Bella! Do you even know how to read one?" Alice asked.
"Yes! Unlike you I busted my butt in school!" I yelled at her.
I was hot and tired. And now that I think of it I'm freaking starving!
"Guys I think Bella's right" Liam said. Then someone's phone went off.
"I think we should call Edward. He will come and get us" Alice said being hard headed.
Must run in the freaking family!
"Alice honey, He is meeting with a director to partner with to get his movie made. I think that's kind of harsh to ruin his shot" Jasper said.
Movie? Since when is Edward into movie making?
"Fine. Let's go." Alice stated then Emmett's phone went off. He just ignored it.
"Okay let's go" I said climbing into the van.
I waited until everyone was seated. I drove forward since this was the only road unless you made a U turn. Which I wouldn't mind heading back now. I silently drove.
"Well this trip is so much fun!" Liam said sarcastically.
"SHUT UP LIAM!" We all yelled at the same time.
Phones kept ringing but we were to mad to answer. Then we passed it. A truck with a brand new grill in the back. That means we are close to something! I sped up. Then I saw it. A ramp that lead onto a freaking interstate. We all cheered.
"Watch the road signs" I told them.
Then the magical sign said 'Seattle, 18 miles off ramp' I swerved to the ramp deserving a few honks.
"Hey Bella?" Liam asked sweetly.
"What Liam?" I asked my mood getting better.
"I have a small little question... ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL US ALL?!" He screamed at me.
I flipped him a beautiful humming bird.
"Can we eat?" Emmett asked.
"Yes. As soon as we see a fast food place" I told him. Everyone cheered.
MWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWM
We pulled into Wendy's.
It was slightly raining. I will never admit it. But I liked Washington more then California. I liked Seattle the best though. The girls ran to the bathrooms. We had Jasper's phone on the dash like a GPS for now. He grabbed it and shut it off since we know where we are.
We silently walked into Wendy's.
"Will you order I got to go pody" Emmett said.
"Pody?" I asked. He just rolled his eyes handed me the money and ran to the bathroom.
I walked up the mean looking old woman.
"I apologize in advance" I told her sweetly.
"What is your order?" She barked.
I take that apology back!
"Okay I need 6 large chicken nuggets. 8 large fries. 22 burgers. 12 large frosty's. 3 crunch bowels. Uh.. 3 loaded cheese and bacon fries. Er.. 6 chicken ultimate chicken grill's. And 6 large drinks" I told her.
"We are severing breakfast" The woman said.
Liar.
"On the door it said you don't serve breakfast here" I told her sweetly. She glared at me.
"Your total will be $89.87" She told me harshly.
I handed her over the hundred. She gave me the change. I thanked her.
"Your number is 78" she said. I stepped aside just as the girls walked out.
"Go tell Liam and Jasper to put 2, 6 seat table seats together" I told them
"Ok" They said and skipped forward.
(o0o0o0o0o0o0o0)
"I have never ate so much!" Alice said rubbing her belly.
Rose nodded. Jasper was driving now.
"I can't believe you ate as much as Emmett and Liam though" Alice told me.
"Hey! Just 'cause I'm tiny doesn't mean I have a tiny belly" I teased.
"And that's why her name is Bellsy" Emmett said and laughed.
"So how are we all fitting in the apartment?" I asked Jasper.
"uh.." He said and trailed off. I looked at Emmett.
"Er.. I... I don't know anything!" He yelled.
"What's going on?" I asked.
"We are going to crash at my parents place. Jasper's family. Rosalie's family. Your family" Alice told me.
I swear my heart stopped. Last time I saw Esme was when I had my break down. My heart rate picked up.
"Is a... Edward going to be staying to?" I asked trying to sound normal. Failing miserably.
"He won't be in until we actually go to eat. He has a very business like meeting in Seattle" Alice said.
"Why don't we crash at my place!? I can do some early cooking. And I can grab a few things I left there" I said.
I really didn't want to deal with Edward's parents.
"I like that Idea. It will be easier to get ready since our stuff is there" Rose told Alice.
"True" Alice said.
"Then it's settled we crash at Emmett's house" Liam said.
"Let me text mom" Alice said.
She pulled out her phone. I closed my eyes and drifted off into a sleepless slumber.
WMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWM
I was in a meadow. Much of the flowers and grass were dead. But it had it's own beauty. I laid down in the dead grass. It was twilight outside. Why was I here? I heard a shuffling sound. I sat up and looked around. Nothing. I listened. Nothing. No sound of the stream that ran along the outside of the meadow. Not the wind blowing. Then I saw him. There stood Charlie with a smile across his face.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him standing up.
"It's okay. I have already took care of it" Charlie said. His voice gave me chills.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"It will be over soon" Charlie said.
He pulled out a gun. A smile came to his face.
"Any last words?" Charlie asked.
"I love you, Edward" I whispered.
I closed my eyes as the wind blew the hair away from my face. I put my hand in front of my face. My eyes snapped open.
Screams came from the T.V. I looked around franticly. I was in my old living room on the couch wrapped up in a blanket. Then I remembered we came to my old home and crashed. I looked at the T.V. a killer chased a blonde woman down the street. I turned off the T.V.
"It was just a dream" I whispered.
There was no way I was going back to sleep. I stood up. I walked into the kitchen. The stove clock read "4:50" I grabbed a bottle of water to wash the sleep out of my mouth. I screwed the bottle on my water bottle and leaned up the kitchen sink letting the moonlight from the window be my only source of light. I pulled up my sweater. The red marks stuck out. I smiled a bittersweet smile. Tear streamed over my eyes. I lightly traced the marks. I sucked in a quite breath.
"White lips. Pale face. Breathing in snowflakes" I sang in a whisper.
I looked up. I have to get out of here. I grabbed the vans keys and took out of the house.
MWMWMWMMWMWMWMWMWMWM
I put the stuffing into the oven. I ran to the fridge and took out my strawberry shortcakes and whip cream. I set them down on the table and took a sip of my ROCKSTAR energy drink. I left and drove to the store and bought tons of food. I have been cooking for two hours. I should go wake up Alice and Rose. But dinner didn't start until 6:30 p.m. So they were okay. I heard soft footsteps come down the stairs.
"Bella? Why are you up?" My half asleep best friend said from behind me.
I turned and looked at her.
"Hey sleepy head. I couldn't sleep" I said.
I rolled my sleeves up and I heard a gasp from Rosalie. Then I realized what I did. I turned and faced her. Her face calmly went to normal.
"Your dress shows your arms so we'll have to put make up on your arms" Rose said then sat at the table.
I nodded and started to whip cream my strawberry shortcakes. I finished and stuck them in them in the fridge. I pulled out the icing. I stuck it in the microwave for 15 seconds.
"Do you need my help?" Rose asked.
"No. I'm to much of a control freak" I teased.
The microwave beeped. I slid off my sweater and put on my snug fitted long sleeved shirt.
"You might want to get in the shower before everyone wakes up" I told Rose.
"Shit!" She said and ran up the stairs.
I took out the warm icing and put it on my carrot cake. It was Papaw's favorite. He should arrive around 3:30. But knowing him there is so set time. I started to hum a song. Then I started thinking of lyrics.
"Wait, don't go away. Just not yet, Cause I thought I had it. But I forget" I sang silently to myself.
"OH! WHAT'S COOKING!" Emmett yelled from upstairs. I swear he has the nose of a blood hound.
I smiled.
"NOTHING YOU CAN EAT!" I yelled back. I heard his led filled feet come down the stairs.
"Seriously!" He said in the kitchen now. I turned to look at him.
"There is coco puff's in the cabinet!" I told him.
He did a happy dance and tore open the cereal box and poured it in a bowel. He went to the fridge and poured some milk in his bowel. He took a huge bite and looked at me.
"What?" He asked his mouth full of puff.
"Your such a pig" I told him and turned around and finished my cake.
"BELLA!" Alice yelled coming down that stairs. I turned around.
And came face to face with a elf sized Shrek.
"Did Shrek rape your face?" I asked her.
She crossed her arms and looked like a mad kitten, I mean cougar!
"No. And why aren't you getting ready?" Alice asked.
"Because I have been cooking. How about you and Rosalie get ready I will finish the rest of the food. Then help the boys get ready" I told her.
"Ok. NO FUNNY BUSSINEES SWAN!" Alice scolded and ran upstairs.
Then Liam and Jasper came down the stairs. I laughed at them.
Liam was shirtless scratching his chest his pants on backwards and Jasper's hair was sticking straight up. Oh. This will be a good thanksgiving day-after.
MWMWMWMWMWMWMWMW
"No I'm telling you I have no idea on what to get Alice for Christmas!" Jasper panicked.
"Well aren't we all supposed to go black Friday shopping after we eat?" I asked.
"Yes" Jasper said.
"Then I will help you guys" I told them.
"I have no one to buy for" Liam said and plopped down.
He was in a simple tannish button up with a black tie with dark jeans and oxfords.
"Me either!" I told Liam.
"But your all ugly and I'm so... not ugly" Liam teased me.
I punched his arm.
"Well you can buy for me! I love me some egg nog!" I teased Liam.
"How do I look?" Jasper asked.
He held out his arms like he was welcoming the sun. He wore a maroon button up with black jeans and old man shoes.
"You look nice. The color looks good with your hair" I said.
The boys were stuck in the living room because Rose and Alice took over upstairs. And the girls scared the guys.
"Bella will you button this my fingers are to big?" Emmett asked walking in front of me.
I stood up and buttoned his grey vest. He wore a white button up with a grey vest with light washed jeans and a pair of converses.
"Thanks baby bell I would be lost without you" Emmett said and ruffled my hair.
Then Rose came down the stairs.
"YO SWAN!" She yelled in a fake mafia voice.
"Wow Rosalie you look pretty" I told my best friend.
She had on a lace top with a floral (daisy) printed black and white skirt with a tan sweater over top. Her hair was a crown of two French braids. She had on nude heels.
"Complements won't save you Swan" Rose threatened.
I rolled my eyes and followed her upstairs. I walked into the room and Alice sat on the floor with millions of earrings around her.
She wore a lace top that came half way down her forearm with a beach sand color skirt with a brown belt and little booties with a big heel and had her hair crimped and a flower crown thing around her head.
"You look lovely" I told Alice.
"What earrings should I wear?" Alice asked us.
"Wear something simple that way you don't look over done" I told her.
The girls gaped at me. I just rolled my eyes. Rosalie lead me to her vanity and sat me down and picked up her curler. She took a small piece of hair and placed it in her curler. Alice sat in front of me on top of the vanity and in her ears were simple small gold hooped earrings.
"Sorry that your parents had to go out of town Rose" I told her.
"I'm thankful. Me and my dad haven't been getting along to well since I didn't go to a fancy-ass college" Rosalie said simply.
"Yeah Jasper's parents couldn't come because his mom got the flu" Alice said.
"Sorry guys" I told them.
"So any hotties in California?" Alice asked.
I bit my lip. Nope they all reside in Washington.
"No." I told her.
"So you haven't met any guys?" Rosalie asked putting some kind of spray in my hair.
"Well I met Alec" I told them.
"Who's Alec?" They both asked at the same time.
I could have sweared I talked to Rose about him.
"He lives above me" I told them.
"Is he that kid that you slammed the door into his face?" Alice asked.
"The very one" I asked.
"So are you two.. You know.. Official?" Alice asked.
"Well he asked me out I told him 'no' and he got mad we didn't speak well he didn't speak to me for a month. Then we ran into each other at the beach and I set him up with a girl" I told them.
"Your hopeless" Alice said.
"They're is no one in California that I want" I told them.
Alice pursed her lips.
"So no wedding bells?" I asked the girls.
"Me and Jazz talked we don't want to have a wedding until after college" Alice said kicking her feet.
Yeah that way Jasper can leave the country when you start planning.
"I'm just waiting for your brother to grow a pair and ask. If he doesn't do it soon I'll kick his ass down engagement lane myself" Rosalie teased.
I laughed at her.
"If I get ever get married I'm having it on New Years" I told them.
"Why new years?" Alice asked.
"Because it will be outdoors. That way no one will come. It'll be too cold to wear dresses and most likely my husband will be hung-over so I can just lie and tell him we got married the night before" I told them.
Alice slapped my leg while Rose threw her head back and laughed.
"Your a freak" She told me.
"You know you love it!" I told her.
"Close your eyes" Rose said.
I covered my eyes with my hands as she sprayed my hair with hairspray.
"Okay time for your dress I made!" Alice called. I sighed and sat on the bed.
My head was infested with the smell of expensive hairspray. Alice pulled out a drycleaners looking bag out of the closet.
"Ready?" She asked.
"Of course!" I told her.
She unzipped the bag and pulled out a simple black dress. Then she moved it the slightest and it glittered. No not glittered... Sparkled. She turned the back it was all lace until it hit the hip area.
"Alice.. That's really girly." I told her.
"Not really. I got you a pair of one inched heeled lace oxfords and some dark tights. Just put it on. If after were done and you don't like it you can wear anything you want" Alice said.
I smiled. Jeans and a sweatshirt!
"Okay" I agreed.
"NOW STRIP!" Alice said.
Then she threw sexy looking underwear and bra set.
"Oh he-"
"Just wear it" Alice said cutting me off. I quickly put on the undergarments and tights.
"Will you help me with this. If I mess up my hair Rose will kill me" I told them.
They turned around and gasped. I looked down with my scared and burnt hips. But they quickly acted like they weren't there. They slid the dress over my head.
MWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWM
Rose applied make up to my wrist to cover up my cuts. My phone started to go off. Must be Grandma Helen.
"Alice will you get that" I asked her sweetly.
She smiled and grabbed my phone and answered it
"Bella's phone?" I heard a voice on the other side.
"She can't hold the phone she's getting her nails painted" Alice lied to my phone.
"Okay well you can tell me then I will tell her!" Alice said happily.
"Okay... Mmm... WHAT?!" Alice screamed making me and Rose jump.
"HOLD ON! LET ME PUT YOU ON SPEAKER!" Alice yelled. She hit the speaker button.
"Bella?" I heard Sulpicia say on the other line.
"Hey. What's up?" I asked my boss.
"Remember that meeting I had in Washington?" She asked.
"Yeah with Aro" I said recalling the events in her office earlier that week.
"Well Aro wanted me to ask if you wanted the lead female role!?" Sulpicia asked.
"Um.. For what?" I asked dumbstruck.
"For the movie. I swear this thing will be a knock out!" Sulpicia told me.
"Me?" I asked to make sure I heard her.
"Yes. I'm thinking on offering Claire a job too! You could work with her. And get good pay. This is a once in a lifetime thing!" Sulpicia told me.
I looked at Rose. She nodded her head like a maniac.
"Ok I will" I told her. All three girl squealed.
"But I want my lawyer to look over your contract" I told Sulpicia.
"Understandable, what is their name?" Sulpicia asked.
"Rosalie Lillian Hale" I told her. Rose's mouth dropped.
"Okay. Well when you come to work next week I will fill you in?" Sulpicia asked.
"Sure thing!" I told her.
"Okay but you must not tell anyone anything! Except for the people in the room and your lawyer!" Sulpicia said.
"Yes ma'am" I said then the line went dead.
"Wait. So am I going to be a actress?" I asked my star struck friends.
MWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWM
"I cannot believe what just happened" Alice whispered to me as we loaded the last of the desserts into the van.
I actually liked the dress once it was one me. Rosalie was so amazing. You couldn't even tell where I had cut myself.
"Shh!" I hushed her.
"C'MON ESME WILL KILL US IF WE DON"T GET THERE THREE HOURS EARLY!" Jasper yelled from the van.
I slammed the trunk. We climbed into the van. Demi Lovato came threw the speakers due to the little elf being the DJ. Me and Liam were sitting by each other in the back while the lovebirds got captains.
"Bella can I ask you a question?" Liam whispered in my ear. He put his hand on my knee.
"Yeah" I whispered back.
"What are you going to do when Edward shows up tonight?" Liam whispered in my year.
"I guess we'll find out when we get there" I told him. He nodded.
MWMWMWMMWMW
My mouth fell open as we pulled into the Cullen's driveway. It looked like Christmas threw up in they're yard. But it was pretty.
"Wow. Your parents like Christmas?" I asked.
"Well mom does. She loves decorating!" Alice said bouncing.
"Like mother, Like daughter" Jasper teased.
Alice stuck her tongue out. The van stopped and we all piled out and loaded our arms up with the food I cooked. Alice ran up the stairs and knocked on the door. A blonde doctor opened the door in a button up and sweater vest.
"WOW! What's with all the food?" Dr. Cullen asked.
"Bella can't sleep at night" Alice teased.
I lightly kicked her butt. Carlisle opened up the door. All of our mouths dropped. It looked like a Christmas wonderland! The house smelled so good. Carlisle lead us into the kitchen. Esme stood with her back facing us she was mixing something.
"Hey mom, where do you want us too put this?" Alice asked.
The mixer turned off and she ran and hugged her daughter. It was quite adorable. I never had a mom to do that with me. But I had Emmett and Papaw. Grandma Helen loved me but she was bitter towards me at the start after Charlie. Then suddenly she loved me when Charlie came back. But I won't ever hold that against her.
"OH! Who cooked the food?" Esme asked when she stopped hugging Alice.
"Bella did" Alice said I blushed.
"Oh! Honey you didn't have to do this!" Esme said. I smiled.
"Anything to get out of Bella Barbie" I teased Alice. Carlisle and Esme laughed.
"Carlisle took the stuff from me and Alice's hands and sat them on there large countertops.
"Thanks" I told him.
"When Alice was about 5 she would dress up Edward in dresses in stuff. I felt so sorry for Edward. But he loved his sister so he did it" Esme laughed at her memories.
Emmett and Liam started cackling.
"OH! I'm SO bringing that up when he gets here!" Emmett said.
I smiled despite of what happened I can picture a two foot tall Alice torturing her big brother. (By three months since Alice was adopted.)
"Is there anything I can do to help?" I asked Mrs. Cullen.
"I think you've done enough" Esme said looking at the food I brought.
"Yeah but it's that or be stuck with Alice. And quite frankly she scares me" I teased.
The Cullen parents laughed.
"Here you can cut the Cranberry sauce" Esme said leading me to the cans.
MWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMWMMWMWMW
I sat between Rosalie on my left Emmett on her left then Carlisle at the head. And then Liam sat on my right. Then Papaw and Grandma Helen along with Embry. Who Edward apparently invited. Well while I was gone they developed a friendship. I still wasn't to sure how I felt about that. Jasper sat across from Emmett, Alice across from Rose. Empty chair in front of me. And two empty chairs in front of Papaw and Grandma. Apparently Edward was bringing back "friends" which were probably girls.
Girls who were pretty and smart, tall, graceful and everything I wasn't.
"Where is that boy?!" Esme asked from the other head of the table.
I looked at the clock 7:02 p.m.
"Edward's never on time" I observed.
I remember that about him. He was always late or to early never on time. Everyone kind of looked at me funny. I felt blood come to my cheeks.
"Well it is true!" I told everyone then looked down at everyone's cold plates of food. We heard the front door open. Then I heard heels in the hallway. I pushed back the lump in my throat with water. Then the girl came around the corner and I chocked on my water.
What the hell?
MWA HAHAHA! I'm evil.
