Alex's POV
The next morning I quickly got ready for school and went downstairs to see everyone. Last night after dinner Edward and Emmett picked me up, I got to see Alice when I got home, but everyone else was out hunting. When I reached the living room I found only Esme and Jasper there, Jasper was watching TV while Esme was working on a design on the coffee table.
Alex: Good morning Jasper! Good morning Esme! [Sits down next to Jasper]
Esme: [Glances at me to smile then goes back to sketching] Good morning Alex, Alice is working on breakfast for you and Max as we speak!
Jasper: [Looks at me and smiles] Hey little wiz, school today?
Alex: [Fake frowns] Yah, I wish I could just stay here with you and Max and everyone else!
Jasper: [Chuckles] Me too! But it's okay, we'll show Max the town while you're out and then when you are done we will pick you up.
Alex: That sounds cool! Hmmm…
Jasper: What? [Looks at me curiously]
Alex: Nothing, I was just wondering how Mike is… since he hurt his arm…
Jasper: Well actually, Jacob hurt his arm, smartest thing he's ever done!
Alex: [Looks shocked] Really?
Jasper: Yah, that Mike kid is really annoying!
Alex: No, I mean you called him Jacob, Edward is like the only one who calls him by his name here, well besides Esme and Carlisle, but they are adults.
Jasper: [Looks embarrassed] Oh, yeah… well since you two are friends and Alice is okay with you hanging out with him, then I didn't thing you would like e calling him anything else.
Alex: Awww, that's so nice! [Hugs him]
Jasper: [Awkwardly hugs back] Yah…
Alex: [Lets go of hug] It's okay, I'm not much of a hugger myself!
Esme: Did you have a good time last night?
Alex: [Smirks] Yes, yes I did!
Jasper: [Looks curious] What did you do?
Alex: I played a prank on some werewolves with Jacob, you would NEVER guess…
Edward: [Appears next to me and interrupt] NO, no he wouldn't! [Gives me a scolding look] That was a very dangerous thing to do!
Alex: Oh come on, don't you start! I already got enough lectures last night!
Jasper: Hello? I want to know what happened.
Edward: She played a prank on FIVE werewolves!
Jasper: What prank?
Edward: She turned the river they jump into for cliff-diving into blackberry jello and stole their stuff so they were stuck there for hours!
Jasper: [Stares at me] You? [Bursts in laughter]
Esme: Alex, that wasn't very nice.
Jasper: No, but it was hella funny!
Edward: [Glares at Jasper] She could have gotten hurt, you don't even know what happened after! They lost control!
Jasper: [Stops laughing and looks serious] What?
Edward: Yes! If it wasn't for Sam handling the situation, ANYTHING could have happened!
Alex: [Rolls Eyes] Way to kill the mood! [Slumps back on couch]
Edward: Alex you…
Alex: [Interrupts] No! Please, ughhhh! You know what? I think I will meet you guys at school! I am gonna flash over to Bella's and go with her. BYE! [Takes out wand]
Edward: Wait!
FLASH!
Max's POV
I looked at the clock; it said 7:28 am, pretty early… I thought time would pass… I was up at 6:45 am and couldn't fall back asleep so I took a shower and got dressed. I'm assuming the Cullens were already up but I don't know about Alex. I was really happy that the Cullen's brought me here this week, because of today, today was a day that I had marked on my calendar because Alex would kill me if I didn't. But I needed to see Alex; maybe I can wake her up? I opened the door to the guest room I was staying in and immediately the smell of pancakes came through my room. Yummm, maybe I can let Alex sleep a little more, Max is hungry! I walked down the hall and headed toward the stairs, when I reached the living room I saw Edward, Jasper and Esme. They were… staring at the empty spot between Edward and Jasper with shocked looks on their face? WTH?
Max: Hey… what are you guys doing?
Esme: [Smiles] Hello Max, hope you slept well?
Edward: Good morning Max!
Jasper: [Looks at me curiously] This magic is marvelous!
Max: What did I do?
Esme: [Chuckles] Nothing dear!
Edward: [Looks annoyed] Your sister flashed out of here…
Max: WHERE DID SHE…
Edward: Calm down! She is going to Bella's, my girlfriend!
Max: Oh, okay… [Sits on couch] So she isn't here?
Jasper: Not anymore, no.
Max: And she won't be home until after school?
Edward: No she won't, actually good thing she is going with Bella, its sunny today so we can't take her to school. We have to stay home. [Frowns]
Jasper: Get over it, Bella will bring her home and you will see Bella then!
Edward: [Smiles] Right.
Max: I have some good news then! [Smiles]
Edward: Really? It's her birthday?
Max: [Shocked] How did you know I was gonna say that!
Edward: [Chuckles] I read your mind.
Max : [Pokes Edward] You sure you guys aren't aliens? I mean they eat humans but can eat animals instead. And they are resistant of garlic. And they read minds. And they can be in the sun. And they…
Edward: [Interrupts giving me an annoyed look] No.
Max: Oh… anyways yah, it's her 17th birthday!
Esme: Really! That's great! We should definitely celebrate it!
Jasper: [Looks worried] Do we have to?
Edward: [Puts hand on Jasper's shoulder] It's okay, nothing will happen.
Jasper: Okay! [Looks at me] What does she like?
?: You guys worry about getting her gifts, and not one Emmett, Rosalie, and I already got. We already have most of the party ready, and Bella will keep the birthday girl away.
I looked up to see Alice, Rosalie, and Emmett standing in front of the coffee table smiling. When did they get here? And, how did they have everything planned already?
Alice: I had a vision last night about this while Edward and Emmett were out getting Alex. I immediately called Rosalie who decided to head to Seattle to get some things for her birthday this morning after she went hunting. And since Edward went out to see Bella after bringing Alex home, I told Emmett about it and we went to Seattle too to do some birthday shopping. [Smiles]
Emmett: We covered the nice stuff, so you guys gotta deal getting her whatever is left!
Edward: And Bella?
Alice: I called her this morning and told her to keep Bella away after school, I knew it was going to be sunny today, I ALWAYS do!
Edward: Right… [Smiles] I know what I want to get her!
Rosalie: Better be nothing we thought of already!
Edward: I already know what you guys got her, why would I copy?
Esme: Well this is delightful! I must go right now and get a gift for her. Is Seattle sunny today?
Emmett: No, it's warm but cloudy so you can be around there.
Esme: [Gets up] Well then, I will go see if Carlisle can take a few hours off to go with me to get Alex a gift! [Leaves]
Edward: I think if I go to that indoor mall in Port Angeles I will find something, they also have a garage so I don't have to be outside. [Looks at me] Coming Max?
Max: Sure, I already got Alex something, but I need to get a few more things.
Rosalie: Alice and I already have the cake in the oven! Oh by the way, make sure you have some pancakes before you leave Max. We didn't make them for you AND Alex not to eat!
Max: Sure [Gets up]
Edward: I will join you, since I have nothing to do until we go! [Gets up to]
Jasper: Wait I will come with you guys too, I haven't gotten a gift for her either.
Edward: Okay let's go!
Jasper: Interesting… my first time at a mall without Alice to get gift for someone non-vampire.
Edward: Interesting indeed!
Alex's POV
Today was SOOO boring! No Alice and Edward, so I only had Bella to hang out with, and she was only in three of my classes. Besides that she was acting weirdly chirpy… I didn't like chirpy. How could Bella stand being at this school without Alice and Edward, it was SOO boring! Bella told me they don't come to school on sunny days; I lived with them, why did I have to go to school? Ughhhh! Lunch was a drag, Mike was complaining about his arm and how he should sue Jacob for hurting him. Lauren and Jessica spent all of lunch giving him their undivided attention while Mike kept trying to get my attention and sympathy. With how possessive he was that night, I don't think so! Then in art, my head and heart was not into the whole painting thing… I ended up drawing a cliff over a river full of jello… and one angry werewolf inside. Hahaha… I should give this to Paul as a gift sometime! When the bell rang I decided to just stay and finish my painting, I still had to finish with the wolf's fur. I was in my artist's trance with my paintbrush in hand so I didn't hear anyone come in.
?: Very nice, I think I would hang that in my house!
Alex: I like it too much to give it away.
?: You wouldn't even give it to me?
Alex: Sorry, this is a memorabilia of a crime I committed.
?: You won't even give it to you partner in crime?
Alex: I… wait… [Turns around] Jacob!
Jacob: Took you long enough! [Smiles] Hey beautiful!
Alex: [Blushes] Umm… hi! What are you doing here anyway?
Jacob: We got out of school early today, and I saw that it was sunny, so I thought to visit you!
Alex: That was very nice of you.
Jacob: [Looks annoyed] Come on! I thought we were friends?
Alex: [Chuckles] WE ARE! Why do you ask?
Jacob: BECAUSE, I have been here for a few minutes now and I STILL haven't gotten a hug from you! [Fake frowns and looks at me with puppy eyes]
Alex: WOW, werewolves really are good at puppy eyes! [Walks over and hugs Jacob]
Jacob: [Hugs back] Yes we are!
It was strange. When I was walking toward him, I felt this pull that made me want to just jump on him, and when I was in his arms, it was like sparks were going through my whole body, but good ones. When only our hand brushed the last two times, the sparks were shocking, because the touch was so small, but a hug, the touch was perfect and the sparks felt so right. I hadn't realized until I looked up at the clock that we had been hugging for a long time. Class had been over 30 minutes ago and I had only been in the room for 15 minutes before Jacob came. I started to let go even though every muscle in my body was protesting and I took a step back to see him frowning.
Alex: I hugged you, what now?
Jacob: Nothing… I just didn't want you to stop.
Alex: [Blushes] Uhhh.. I should clean this all up. [Starts to clean up painting materials]
Jacob: So… what are you doing today?
Alex: I'm hanging out with Bella, and then we are going home.
Jacob: You guys can hang out with me!
Alex: I would, but it's up to Bella. And Bella told me I HAVE to be home by 6:00 pm sharp!
Jacob: Why?
Alex: I don't know…
Jacob: Okay… well hang with me until then!
Alex: I can't, I have to do homework [Rolls Eyes] before 6:00 pm. That's the instructions that were given to Bella by Edward. And he always checks my homework!
Jacob: Fuck the Bloodsucker, he doesn't control you!
Alex: [Looks angry] Jacob stop!
Jacob: [Confused] What did I do?
Alex: You know Jasper has decided not to call you a dog or anything insulting anymore because you are my friend, he called you Jacob today!
Jacob: And?
Alex: And at least you can be courteous enough to do the same! Not only are they my family but they are Bella's family too! Bella and I are your friends; do you think we want to hear this about our family?
Jacob: [Looks embarrassed] Sorry Alex, I promise, I will try to stop.
Alex: [Smiles] That's all I ask. So I have everything here cleaned up. But, I am going home with Bella… she and I can't hang with you today!
Jacob: How about… I hang with you two? [Smiles]
Alex: Hmmm, okay, but you have to let us finish our homework; Edward is a total butthead when it comes to making sure I finish my homework.
Jacob: [Chuckles] Okay I will! I came straight from school so I can do some homework too.
Alex: Great! Let's go!
Jacob's POV
We have been in Bella's living room doing homework for an hour now and I haven't gotten ANY homework done. Though I did keep my promise and didn't distract Bella and Alex much. My mind was on Alex the whole time. My mind was on the way she looked when she was in her artist's trance, how she hugged me for a whole 9 minute and 33 second, and how she kept looking out the window to wave at me as I rode my motorcycle behind Bella's truck on the way to Bella's house. She was so gorgeous, ALWAYS! But sadly, we were still in friend-zone. I wanted out, but at least I knew that Alex was aware of our bond and would never let me go. Whether she accepted it now or years from now, the fact was we belonged together.
Alex: I'm hungry! Do you guys have some junk food around?
Bella: [Chuckles] Yes we do! There is a cabinet over the fridge in the kitchen, look through it and pick what you want, bring something for Jacob too!
Alex: [Jumps up from couch and smiles at me] What do you want?
Jacob: They usually have Doritos, so bring me a bag of the cool ranch!
Alex: Okay! [Goes to kitchen]
Bella: Finally she is gone!
Jacob: What do you mean?
Bella: I have been trying to tell you something since I saw you!
Jacob: And why can't Alex know?
Bella: It's a surprise! Today is Alex's birthday!
Jacob: Wait, IT IS!
Bella: YES! And the reason why she is with me right now is because I have to keep her away from home until her party is ready.
Jacob: Then I have to get her something. [Looks at clock] Naw, I think I will get her a gift this weekend, after playing around with her a little. [Smirks]
Bella: What do you mean?
Jacob: I mean, tell Alex I hadda go and do some stuff with my friends.
Bella: Why all of a sudden?
Jacob: [Smirks] Don't worry about it Bells. Let's just say I have a surprise of my own for her, PROMISE you won't tell Alex anything!
Bella: I don't even know what surprise you have!
Jacob: You won't have to worry about it now. But this weekend I have a surprise for her, she can't know. And I won't be seeing her for a few days… so she might be mad at me.
Bella: Jacob, you're so confusing!
Jacob: I know, but trust me, she will love me… I mean it!
Bella: [Chuckles] Sure she will…
Jacob: She's coming back, I gotta go! BYE!
Bella: Okay bye!
Once I was on my bike and riding towards home I smiled to myself. Maybe this was my chance to make her realize that she loves me. If she doesn't see me for a few days, or doesn't talk to me for a few days, she will miss me. And when I show her the birthday surprise I will plan for her, she will see how much I really love her. Yes, I will do it! I continued to think of my surprise for her, ignoring the warning in the back of my mind that kept saying… 'what if she isn't ready?'
I was bored and I want to get to the good chapters sooner so I decided to post a chapter today :)
Also I was pleased with the reviews and wanted to inform you all, Alex is NOT going home, LOL... not anytime soon anyway!
Anyways, continue to review, I always appreciate them and will post sooner if I get them, like I did today! So REVIEW PLEASE! ;)
