"Alice? Alice?! What's going on?" Jasper's voice echoed through the house. He had his hands on her shoulders and was looking into her blank eyes.
"We're all going on tour!" She yelled, making us all jump in the silence there was before.
"When?!" We all yelled, in unison. We were so excited to be going on tour. It was really great to have a psychic in the band and family.
"In two weeks! Exactly one week from graduation!" She squealed. "Ron is on his way right now, he'll be here in ten minutes." Alice said.
"I've got to get ready!!" Rose, Alice and I screamed. We were all in our comfy sweet shirts and sweet pants.
Alice and Rosalie were on either side of me In a flash.
"W-what are you guys d-doing?" My voice quivered as they each grabbed one of my elbows in their hands.
"Come on, Bella. Rose and I will get you ready!" Alice's perkiness was really starting to get on my nerves. She and Rosalie had played their favorite game of 'Make Bella's night horrible by dressing her up and giving her a makeover.' Or at least that's what I called it, to sum it up it was a game of 'Barbie Doll.' Charlie had let me stay over at the Cullen's house last night, and I had been tortured with their favorite game.
"Yeah, come on Bella. And don't worry it will be fine. Stop looking at us like that, it's not like we're going to kill you or anything." Rose said, with a small laugh at my expression of pure horror.
"You might as well. It would be a lot less painful." I mumbled. They just laughed and carried me upstairs.
We had already recorded the new songs given the record company our name, and given them the name of our manager, Carlisle, so he was most likely coming over to talk to him. He was probably wanting to talk to him about us going on tour, Carlisle would, of course, agree. And a lot of other stuff that they needed to talk about.
Alice and Rosalie dressed me in a midnight blue blouse, and black pants. They did my makeup after I was dressed. Soon after I was ready, so were they, with their vampire speed.
We headed downstairs when Alice and Rose heard Ron knock at the door. They rushed me down the stairs, into the living room, and set me on the couch next to Edward, within two minutes. I laid my head on Edward's shoulder when he put his arm around my waist.
Ron stepped in the room, said an excited "Hello everyone."
"Hey, Ron!" We shouted.
"I have a few things to tell you. One, we need to go down to the studio and pick a design from some of the ones that our designers have prepared for your CD cover. Two, you will be having a concert in Seattle this Saturday. And, three, you are all going on tour next Tuesday, one week from your graduation."
"Awesome!" We all screamed.
"Now, let's go to the studio and pick out that design." Ron said.
"Alice, don't you have a drawing of the CD cover that you made, so we could show it to Ron and see if he liked it?" Edward asked Alice, though he already knew the answer. Alice had had a vision of the CD cover and it wasn't one of the designs they had at the studio, so she drew it.
"Yes, I'll go up and get it now." Alice got up and walked up the stairs, at human speed until she got to where she knew Ron wouldn't see her. She came down about two minutes later and had the picture in hand.
"Here you go, Ron." Alice said, handing the picture to him.
Edward and I were side by side, in the front. Right behind us, on our left, was Alice and Jasper. Alice was facing away from Jasper, he was behind her with his arms around her waist. Her hands were on his, as his hands lay lightly on her stomach. They were looking to the left. On our right side, were Emmet and Rose. Rosalie was facing away from Emmet, Emmet was behind her with his arms around here waist. Her hands were on his, as his hands lay lightly on her stomach. They were facing the right. Edward and I were holding each other as well, his arms around my waist, hands in my back pockets. My arms were laid on his chest, and my hands were clasping his shoulders. We had our faces turned, my head rested on his chest, his tilted to the side, as he had his cheek on the top of my head, inhaling my scent there, is what it looked like. The words 'The Lion and The Lamb' were just above our heads. We were all in a meadow, similar to the one Edward had taken me to after he had supposedly canceled on taking me to Seattle. He had told me that it wasn't the same place, when I had asked after Alice showed us the picture for the first time.
"I wouldn't lead anyone else but you and I would be with you. That meadow is our little get away." Were his exact words when I had asked.
"Wow" Ron said, bringing me back into the present.
"What do you think?" Alice asked.
"This is the perfect cover for the CD. I love it!" he said, not looking up from the picture.
"Ron, are you alright?" I asked, a little concerned about the record producer.
"Yeah, I'll be fine. This is wonderful. I have to go now, I need to go and give this do the people that will be doing the photo shoot tomorrow. And oh yeah that's what I forgot. You have a photo shoot
tomorrow, sorry that I forgot. See you tomorrow." He said, running out of the house and into his car at top speed, well top speed for a human anyway.
When he was gone Edward leaned down to kiss me, but to my disappointment it was not like the time he had kissed me while playing my lullaby.
