"Your what?" Bella screams and I use her outburst as a distraction and reach forward, pulling Alice into my arms.
She melts against me with a sigh.
"Yes. Alice and I are engaged and I was coming to pick her up for her birthday dinner."
Both Bella and the faux police officer are flabbergasted.
Fuck 'em.
"Come on darling, we have reservations."
I can hear Bella yelling as we walk toward my car, but we ignore her.
I get her settled into the passenger seat and make sure she's buckled before I pull away.
Neither of us look back.
I could really say 'the end' and that would be okay...
But when do I do thing that are okay?
*smirk*
