A/N: Let's have some fun! The next day with dress shopping. I have a great idea….

Chapter 25

I woke up before the alarm cradled in the arms of the most amazing guy in the world I stretched hitting my hand on his uncovered chest. We woke up and his first reaction like always was to pull me closer to his chest. I giggled then turned around to kiss him.

"Wake up baby." I kissed his unmoving lips. He reacted by kissing my roughly and pulling me on top of him.

"Good morning beautiful." He kissed my neck. I sat up straddling his lap. He sat up and placed his forehead on mine. "So what's on the agenda?"

I pushed him back on the bed and laid on top of him. "Screw the agenda, let's stay in bed."

He chuckled wrapping his arms around me. "Yeah, I'm sure Mr. White would go for that." He paused rubbing my back. "I think we're going snorkeling today, then we're troughing."

"Oh, what fun." I sighed sarcastically.

He laughed. "What time is it?"

I glanced over at the clock. "6:00."

He rolled me off of him and got up pulling on his shirt. "Let's go get breakfast. Hurry up and get dressed."

He quietly slipped out the door and I got in the shower repeating the same actions as yesterday. I got out, pulled my hair up, and then slipped on my bathing suit. I grabbed my gray soffes and a pink tank top. I clipped my phone to my side and opened the door to reveal Edward about to knock.

"Come on. I left a note." He pulled me out the door and we pressed the down button on the elevator. His hands were wrapped around my waist holding me tight. The elevator quickly got to us because it was so early. He pressed the star button and 30 seconds later the lobby opened up before us.

Edward pulled me through the double doors and to the right. We traveled downhill to the sidewalk and to the right. "Edward, where are we going?" We were walking toward the bad side of town.

"Trust me."

A morning chill was floating around so it gave me an excuse to snuggle into Edward's arms. Not like I needed a reason. I shivered as he rubbed my arms. A minute later the IHOP sign appeared. "IHOP!"

Edward smiled and now I was dragging him. We crossed the street at the corner and we stepped inside. "Hello, welcome to IHOP!" A handsome young man probably in his early twenties led us to a booth. I scooted in and Edward followed me.

"Hi, my name's James and I will be your waiter for this morning. What can I get you two to drink?" He took out his notepad.

"I'll have Pepsi and she'll have Mountain Dew." He scribbled it down.

"Okay, I'll let you two look over the menu and then I'll be right back to take your orders." He turned around and walked away.

I looked at Edward. "What if I didn't want Mountain Dew?"

He raised an eyebrow. "You didn't?"

I shook my head. "No, I did."

He rolled his eyes and looked over the menu. "I think I'm going to have an omelet. What do you want?"

I grinned. "I'm thinking chocolate chip pancakes."

James came back over to our table giving us our drinks. "So, what can I get the pretty young lady?"

"Um, I want buttermilk chocolate chip pancakes, no whipped cream." He scribbled it down and then turned to Edward.

"And for you sir?"

"I want the cheese omelet with a side of bacon." He nodded.

"Okay, I'll be right back with your orders." He left to place our orders.

I turned around leaning against the wall so I could talk to Edward. "You know that girl over there is checking you out."

He chuckled. "What girl?"

I nodded my head over toward the girl. "The pretty Taylor Swift looking girl." He turned around to look and she blushed. "I bet you two would make adorable kids."

He scowled. "Yeah, she's pretty but she's not my type."

I giggled. "Oh really, and what is your type?"

He squinted eyes concentrating. "Well I'd have to say brunette, 5'4ish, chocolate brown eyes. You know the girl next door type." I smiled and he took my hand. "Since when do you picture me as the father of some country star look-alike's baby?"

I shrugged. "Since you dated Tanya. You two would have made such pretty girls. Too bad they would have been a little ditzy."

Edward grinned. "Yeah, like their mother."

"Her friend is coming over here." Edward tensed and the girl placed a hand on his shoulder. She looked exactly like the blonde girl except she had black hair.

"Excuse me." She even had the country accent.

He turned his head to look at her. "Yes?"

She blushed. "Well, I was wondering if this girl here was you sister?"

Edward glanced at me and then I spoke up. "Um, no I'm not his sister. I'm his girlfriend. Why do you ask?"

She blushed. "Well, me and my friends just think you two are too insanely beautiful to be in love with each other." She paused motioning to the blonde girl and a hott brunette guy. "I don't mean to be rude, but in today's society."

How rude was that? I was about to open my mouth when Edward's face screamed unbelievable. "That was rude. Just to let you know I am completely in love with this girl. She is my life. I am aware that she in insanely beautiful but I love her for her personality, not her looks. Now if you will please excuse us our food is coming."

Her mouth hung open and she turned around and walked back to her friends. Edward and I quickly ate our food and he paid as we raced out the door. We made it back to the lobby with ten minutes to spare.

We loaded the van everyone sitting in the same seats as yesterday. Edward and I spent most of the van ride there making out. He said he was craving chocolate. –Cough, cough- LIAR! I didn't complain though.

Jack greeted us and he handed us our snorkels and masks. "Remember to use the buddy system. If you see a shark huddle together. Remember no sudden movements. We pilled into the boat called "The Discovery" and headed out to sea.

Snorkeling was amazing. Of course Edward insisted on being my buddy. We spent half the day snorkeling and then had bagged lunch again on the boat. After snorkeling we went troughing, which was where the boat drug a large bucket on the bottom on the ocean to catch animals on the ocean floor.

We had lots of fun picking up the animals and drawing them in our journals. When we got back to the hotel I had a long talk with Ben about not letting Tanya use his and Edward's bathroom ever again. He understood and promised. I jumped in the shower first and blow-dried my hair while Alice got in the shower. Tonight was a "Girls Night" which meant that Edward had to stay at the hotel with the others.

We had pizza at the food court and then it was on to dress shopping. We went through shop after shop looking for the perfect dress. My feet started killing me. "Alice, my feet hurt."

She pulled on my arm. "Just one more shop. I can feel it."

She pulled me into a native Florida shop and then I saw it. It was a beautiful strapless off white dress with a black sash. I pointed to it and Alice squealed. "Bella, it's perfect."

(A/N: Dress on profile with next chapter.)

It was just my size. I tried it on in the dressing room and was amazed at how perfectly it fit my shape. "Alice, look."

I opened the door and she was speechless. "It's like it was made for you."

I nodded my head. She threw some shoes at me and I tried them on with the dress. They were high heels but I wasn't scared. I knew Edward would catch me if I fell.

I slipped off the dress and put my clothes back on. I was dead tired. Snorkeling had taken a lot out of me. Alice grabbed the dress from me and she looked thorough the jewelry. She picked out a starfish necklace and earring set with a pearl bracelet. By the time we got done the mall was closing. She called a taxi and we headed back to the hotel.

When we got back to the hotel I was exhausted unlike Alice who was just as hyper as she was at 12 today. I trudged through the lobby following Alice who was carrying my dress in her arms. I pulled out my key slipping it into the key slot and pressed the button for the 9th floor.

I barley uttered a word to anyone as we walked into the room. Alice followed me into my room hanging my covered dress up in my closet. I closed the door behind me and slipped into my pajamas. I unlocked my door and crawled into bed. I barely noticed when a pair of unfamiliar arms wrapped around my body. I turned my head to see Mike in my bed.

"Get out of my room." I used my remaining strength to push him away from me.

"What if I don't want to?" He gripped me tighter pulling the bottom of my camisole up snaking his hand under my shirt.

"Get away from me. Edward! Edward!" I screamed for my protector.

Mike slapped his hand over my mouth. "Edward isn't here. He's out with Jake and Tanya."

"Get off of her you jerk." Alice rushed through the bathroom and slapped Mike.

He grabbed her wrist letting go of me. "Oh, you want to join the fun too?" He pulled her onto the bed.

"Get out of here!" She fought against him.

"Help! Help!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. Where was everyone?

A/N: Sorry it took so long to update. I've been busy today. Okay well I'll try to update tomorrow. I can't make any promises though.
