Author's Note: I've had this chapter written on paper for a couple of days now but I was getting too lazy in between work and chores so I procrastinated typing this up.

Shopping

I laid comfortably in Edward's arms wrapped in nothing but the blanket with my back to him. We laid there in silence just basking in the sunlight pouring through the window lighting the tiny diamonds imbedded in our skin until I heard a knock at the door. "Edward," I groaned attempting to get up. He sighed, digging his face deeper into my hair and tightened his grip on my hip. After a few moments of struggling, I came to the conclusion that he wasn't planning on letting go anytime soon. I merely readjusted my position so that I had a clear view of the door without disturbing his position. The knock came again, this time it was louder and more urgent.

"What is it?" I said loud enough for whoever it is on the other side of the door to hear.

"Um Bella? Alice and Rosalie wanted me to come get you to come with us to get the dress." Dress? Oh right, Elizabeth's dress. Edward turned out of my hair and towards the door.

"You three go ahead but Bella is staying here today," he answered with authority. I heard shuffling on the other side of the doorway and then there was several more knocks.

"Bella? Is he holding you hostage? Edward Cullen, don't make me go in there and get her myself!" Rosalie mocked. I laughed but saw the doorknob turn an inch and stopped immediately. Edward jumped off and ran to the closet to put pants on just in case she does decide to come in.

"Rosalie, don't come in. Go downstairs and wait for me, I'll be down in 20 minutes!" That stopped the movement of the doorknob and I sighed with relief.

"Okay," she replied. I heard her walk away and got up to gather the scattered clothes on the floor to drop into the basket. I hopped in the shower and turned the water on boiling hot letting it refresh me for the day before getting out. I wrapped myself securely in a towel before stepping out to blow dry my hair. I reached over to the counter for my clothes but didn't find it. Oops, I forgot to bring in fresh clothes. I walked over to the door and peeked it open. I searched the room for Edward but didn't find him. I figured that he went downstairs to join the others so I stepped out and walked over to our giant walk-in closet. My clothes were hung and folded on the right and Edward's were on the left, splitting the closet equally between the two of us. I headed to the drawers that held my undergarments but something grabbed me and pulled me backwards.

"Do you know how tempting you are right now?" He whispered in my ear and began sliding his lips back and forth on my neck causing me to tremble slightly. "You really shouldn't walk around with nothing but a towel on."

"I thought you went downstairs," I giggled.

"I did but Alice was starting to wonder what was taking you so long," he mocked.

"Then I'd better get going." I pulled away from him and continued to the drawers to grab a pair of underwear, bra, jeans, and a comfortable t-shirt before running back into the bathroom. I slipped into my clothes and ran a brush through my hair a couple of times before going downstairs. As soon as I got to the last step of the stairs, Alice raced to me from her seat, grabbed my arm, and dragged me towards the front door.

"Finally! Let's go ladies!" She yelled. Elizabeth and Rosalie rose from their seats and began following us. Alice swung the door open just as Edward caught up with us and pecked me on the cheek goodbye. Alice continued dragging me out to the car opening the door of the passenger seat for me to get in.

"Have fun!" Edward said from the doorway chuckling. I rolled my eyes and got in the car as Alice walked to the other side of the car to get into the driver's seat. Elizabeth and Rosalie got in the back with Rosalie chattering about how the dresses look and how we should do our hair. Alice started the car and pulled out of the driveway easily, in no time, we were headed to the only shopping center in this tiny town. Now Rosalie was talking about how the guys proposed three months ago making me smile ear to ear at the memory.

"Wait, if all three of them proposed at the same time, why didn't you decide to get married together?" Elizabeth asked curiously. Rosalie and Alice laughed and I shook my head slightly.

"It was Edward's idea. He wanted Bella to have the perfect wedding day with her in the center of attention and no one else," Rosalie mocked. Alice pulled into the parking space in front of the bridal shop and turned off the engine.

"Everyone out," she said pretending to be a bus driver. We piled out of the car slamming the doors shut with Rosalie leading the way into the shop. The same clerk from last time greeted us at the door.

"Hello again. What can I help you with today?" Rosalie stepped up from the group.

"We want another of the red bridesmaid dress we picked up last time," she said looking around for a glimpse of the dress we wanted.

"Of course, come this way," the clerk led us into the back room. "What size is it this time?"

"Four," Elizabeth answered automatically. The clerk grabbed the dress from a random hanger and handed it to me thinking I was Elizabeth. I grabbed it but passed it to Elizabeth and pointed her towards the dressing room. She got in and closed the door behind her looking excited about the dress.

"Bella, me and Rosalie wants to stop to get some lingerie, do you want to come?" I shook my head my eyes wide open.

"Okay then, you stay with Elizabeth. We'll meet back here in an hour." She and Rosalie trailed out quickly leaving me to help Elizabeth with her dress. The dressing room door opened and Elizabeth stepped out twirling a couple of times for me to see. I nodded and smiled at her before walking to the counter.

"Can you ring that dress and its accessories up for me?" I asked.

"The two ladies that were with you earlier already paid before they left ma'am." Typical Alice. Elizabeth finished changing and placed the dress carefully onto the counter.

"Oh Bella, you should let me pay for this," she reached for her wallet but I grabbed her wrist.

"We're too late, Alice already did," I stated. She laughed and the clerk handed us the dress bagged neatly.

"We'll come pick it up in an hour." The clerk nodded and placed the bag behind the counter while I led Elizabeth out.

"Where is Alice and Rosalie?" she wondered.

"They went lingerie shopping. They'll meet us here in an hour," I exclaimed. "In the meantime, why don't we do some shopping of our own?" She nodded and followed me down the boardwalk.

Author's Note: I am looking for an editor! Between work and everything I don't have the time to recheck my writing anymore. Anyone who is my editor won't have to work that hard since I usually don't make a lot of mistakes and they will get first looks at chapters!
