Chapter 6: The Devil Wears Prada

Jasper couldn't stop staring.

As soon as the Cullens heard the familiar rumble of Bella's truck coming down the road their eyes shifted to the source. Alice had told Jasper the other day about the deal she and Lilith made. Soon the entire household knew of it and respective bets were placed. Jasper as the mediator for this deal couldn't put down his money but if he was able to it would be on his wife. Boy, he was wrong. Lilith stepped out of the vehicle and all heads in the parking lot turned in her direction.

"Rose! Rose! Look at Jazz and Alice!" Emmett was whispering loudly, amusement in his voice.

When Jasper's awareness returned to him, courtesy of Emmett's gleeful pointing and snickering, he cleared his throat and crossed his arms. "Alice." His voice was gruff and southern accent prominent. "Are you sure ya' know what you got into?" He glanced down at his wife who was also staring at Lilith, her jaw tense and eyes wide.

"I'm not so sure anymore." she said meekly.

Jasper nodded, accepting this and returned his gaze to their friend. She was stunning, beautiful, sexy. Jasper felt an array of different feelings stir inside him only amplified from his mate's own. Lilith was in attire that screamed she was getting shit done and it was a complete turn around of what she wore this past weekend. The tight skirt that hugged her curves just right and legs that seemed to go on for miles. This time it was Edward who cleared his throat highly aware of the thoughts that were coming from his two siblings were highly inappropriate.

Lilith, while talking to Bella, seemed to catch wind of their starting and without pausing from her own conversation turned her head and winked at her two friends. Inclining her head towards the school she and Bella started walking to the building, Lilith's hips swaying and turning heads with every step.

"Did you have to be that extra?" Bella laughed as they entered the school.

"It's part of my job to be extra, have you seen where I live?" Lilith replied.

The two ran into Jessica and Angela in the hallway, and the two proceeded to stare at Lilith as if she grew a second head.

"Why are you dressed like that?" Jessica asked.

"I have job interviews all this week after school, so I'd rather be dressed to impress all day than rush and put something on." Lilith shrugged, the lie passing easily through her lips and Bella raised a brow impressed at the fabrication.

"Well, you have to tell me where you got those shoes, they look amazing."

Lunch came around and in a span of three hours Lilith was the talk of the school. The way she strutted down the halls to the sultry yet innocent smirks she gave to people she caught starting. Who knew the girl who came in wearing sweatpants everyday of the week could look like a woman who owned a business. Edward was finding amusement listening to Alice's and Jasper's thoughts throughout the day. To Alice's 'It's only Monday and she's wearing THAT.' to Jasper's 'We have four more days of this torture.' They were sitting at their usual table, Emmett's constant snickering at Alice's and Jasper's expression and Rosalie's raised brow and iconic smirk was what the rest of the school saw as Bella and Lilith arrived to sit down.

Lilith, being the devil she is, sat down in between Jasper and Alice. Stealing a fry from Jasper's plate she took a bite. "So, how's everyone's day so far?"

Rosalie couldn't take it, the combined action of seeing Jasper and Alice's stiffened, uncomfortable posture and Lilith's scandalous smile caused her to laugh. Hiding her mouth behind her hand, the blonde chuckled as she stared at the trio. Ignoring Emmett and Bella's wide eyed look at her burst of emotion, Rosalie composed herself and spoke. "As much as it is humorous to see my brother and sister act like newborns around you, did you have to take this deal so seriously?"

Lilith hummed in thought, tapping her chin before responding. "To be fair I did warn Alice, I don't back down when deals are made with me." There was a sudden glint in her eyes that made Rosalie uneasy. "So Alice," Lilith purred. "Are you impressed yet?"

"Jesus Christ." A strained murmur came from Jasper's lips as he held his head in his hands. Alice mindful of her speed, stood up quickly.

"Well, would you look at the time! I have a project that's due for the next class, I'll see you all later. Come on Jazz!" Once the couple left the cafeteria Lilith broke down laughing, clutching her stomach.

"Oh man, this week is going to be so much fun."


Tuesday came around and thankfully for the two Whitlocks it wasn't as extreme as Monday was. Nice slacks with a dress shirt and vest could be found on Lilith's body for the school day and a brief moment of hope shot through Jasper. Hopefully it would all go down from here and Monday was the worst case.

He was wrong.

So Wednesday night Jasper was sitting on the couch, palms pressed together as if in prayer and face pressed against them eyes closed. Today Lilith had come in wearing a form fitting red dress, a small white jacket on top that covered her arms. Needless to say Emmett though for sure Jasper was going to have a heart attack when Lilith 'accidentally' dropped her pen and bent over to pick it up.

"Son?" Carlisle had just returned home from work, seeing Jasper sitting on the couch still as a statue without Alice anywhere to be seen worried him. "Are you alright? Where's Alice?"

"Out hunting." Jasper replied and Carlisle's eyes jumped to his hairline.

"Again? She just went Sunday…" Carlisle was interrupted by a drawn out groan from the Major.

"Alice and I have had a little trouble controlling ourselves this week."

Carlisle made his way to sit down across from Jasper, hands on his knees and sitting up straight, he listened.

"Alice made a deal with Lilith, neither of us expected it to fire back on us."

"What do you mean?"

Running a hand through his hair Jasper sighed and shook his head. "It's fine Carlisle," Jasper stood up and turned his head to the window, no doubt hearing his wife return home. "It's only for two more days."


Alice couldn't last another day. What was she thinking making a deal with that girl? For the past four days Lilith has done nothing but tease her and Jasper in ways that made her undead heart flutter. She thanked whatever deity that was listening that is was Friday and prayed that she wouldn't act like a fool like she has been this past week. So as she held Jasper's hand she prepared for the inevitable.

When Bella and Lilith stepped out of the truck, Alice released an unnecessary breath of relief. Skinny jeans, combat boots, with a plain shirt and leather jacket. Alice could deal with that. The two humans walked over and Lilith gave the couple a knowing grin.

"Well, it's Friday, Jasper, Alice, were you two impressed by my wardrobe?" Alice groaned, she already knew she lost this bet since day one.

"Yes, yes. I have to say Lilith, you were very...formidable in your efforts." The pixie glanced to the side avoiding to look at Lilith's black eyes.

"So I can go back to my stoner clothes?" Alice heard her siblings and Bella laugh at Lilith's comment and Alice rolled her eyes and huffed.

"Fine, because you've impressed me-"

"Oh I'm sure she did." There was a sharp crack indicating Rosalie smacked Emmett across the head.

"-you can wear your 'comfortable' clothes twice a week only."

"Yes!" Lilith pumped her fist and Bella shook her head laughing at her friend's antics in Edward's arms. Lilith's gaze shifted to her mortal friend and suddenly Bella wanted to run in the opposite direction. "Oh don't be so happy Bella," Lilith began "Now that I'm off Alice's fashion radar, it's your turn. You didn't forget all three of us are shopping tomorrow did you?"

Bella mumbled a string of curses that left all the vampires eyes wide and mouths open in shock. Lilith cackled as she wrapped an arm around Jasper's waist and led him and Alice to class.

"Damn Bella-Bear, do you kiss your mother with that mouth?"

"Emmett!"


"So if cookies bake in ten minutes at four hundred degrees, would it take one minute at four thousand?"

"Lilith that's not how baking works."

"Well, why the fuck not?"

Bella and Lilith we're having a sleepover at Lilith's house, the one she bought starting her vacation. When Bella opened her pantry and saw that all the devil had was brownie and cookie mix, they ordered a pizza and started baking. Tomorrow morning Alice would pick them up to go shopping while the boys went on a hunting trip. Surprisingly at the last minute, Rosalie stated she wanted to join the girls. So Alice excitedly exclaimed how tomorrow would be a girls day out.

"Bella, I could easily conjure some hellish flame and bake the cookies within seconds."

Bella sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose before explaining the process of baking to Satan. "Lil, the point of baking is to let the sweets slowly cook in the oven. That's how Esme gets her cookies and cakes to turn out so well, she waits." Bella watched as Lilith seemed to drool being reminded of Esme's cooking. The brunette laughed and shook her head. "You have an insane sweet tooth."

"Anyone would have an insane sweet tooth after eating Esme's chocolate cake."

Rolling her eyes Bella set the timer for the baked goods and dragged Lilith to her living room, where a fort of blankets and pillows resided. Sitting down Lilith asked. "So what do mortals do at sleepovers? The only ones I've been to is when some idiot brings an ouija board and doesn't expect it to work. By the time I appear the mortals are either dead from conjuring a spirit beforehand or ran away." When Lilith was finished speaking Bella was looking at her with a raised brow. "What?"

Bella sighed "Well usually teenage girls who don't want to summon spirits at sleepovers do each others hair, talk about boys, watch movies, that kind of stuff."

Lilith hummed as she rested her head on an outstretched palm.

"Well I can only do your hair since, mine's cut so short. As for boys you have Edward, and I definitely don't want to know about your love life."

"What about yours?"

Lilith raised a brow. "What about mine?"

"Well…" Bella trailed off "You're pretty close to Alice and Jasper." She shrugged.

"They're married. To each other at that." Lilith waved a hand and averted her eyes. "I do like them, but I would never even think of getting in between the two of them."

"But if they didn't mind?"

Lilith furrowed her brow. "What are you trying to get at Bells?"

Bella shrugged again. "Nothing, I just want you to be happy." Lilith's eyes softened at this admission.

"I am happy Bella, with you and that's enough."

"Everyone deserves a chance at love Lilith."

"You're just saying that 'cause you finally have some vampire di-"

"Finish that sentence and I will end you."

Lilith laughed at Bella's pointed look and for the rest of the night the conversation wasn't brought up again. Through Lilith's persistence they baked five dozen cookies and two trays of brownies. Stomachs filled with pizza and sweets the two females fell asleep in the living room.

Bella was awoken by a constant knocking on the door. Shooting up from her prone position, Bella eyed the clock in the kitchen and cursed when she realized what time it is. Running to the front door she opened the door to come face to face with a rather confused Alice and annoyed Rosalie.

"Shit, sorry Alice, Lilith and I stayed up late last night. Here, go wake up Lilith while I get ready." With that Bella grabbed her overnight bag and rushed to the bathroom. Alice and Rosalie stepped into Lilith's home. It was plain and simple, not too many decorations graced the house. Seeing a body, still asleep in the living room Alice found her target. Lilith wore shorts and a tank to sleep, which showed off the most skin Alice had seen on Lilith. The vampire's eyes narrowed in confusion and concern as she gazed at the scars that adorned Lilith's arms. Tracing some of them se noticed a few more that led to her torso and one big scar that started on the curve of her shoulder and round its way to her back. Putting this new information aside for later Alice crouched down and shook Lilith gently.

"Lilith, get up."

The girl groaned.

"Lilith!"

Eyes popped opened and Lilith yelped seeing Alice's face close to hers.

"Wha-?"

"We're late." Rosalie snapped and Lilith stared at the two vampires in confusion, sleep still laced on her face.

"Shopping today, remember?" Alice inquired. Lilith rubbed her eyes and nodded, mumbling an apology.

"Right, sorry, next time I should listen to Bella and not eat thirty cookies before bed."

Alice and Rosalie's eyes widen at this confession as Lilith stands up and stretches. The girl scratches her head and looks around for a bit before looking back at Alice and Rosalie.

"What?"

"Where does it all go?" Lilith shrugs and makes her way upstairs to her room, planning to get ready.

The day went as planned, Alice, with her new shopping partner dragged Bella to each and every store just as she did with Lilith the previous week. Rosalie and Lilith seemed to had made a truth, both enjoying the looks of horror Bella was having as Alice yammered on about different fashion lines, styles, and of course, shoes. While at the food court, the group taking a break to let the two humans eat, Alice invited them to see their family play baseball next week. Lilith frowned and shook her head politely declining.

"Sorry Alice I have to visit my aunt in Seattle that weekend. Maybe another time though?"

Bella knew that 'aunt' meant 'work' and she gave Lilith a look but didn't question it. However Lilith didn't like Alice's disappointed demeanor and to make it up to her, Lilith told Alice she could pick out a few outfits for her while they were here. Alice brightened instantly and while the group was walking to a different store Bella step back to walk by Lilith and with a flick of her hand she made a whipping sound and ran away. Rosalie snorted and Lilith with wide eyes growled and chased after a laughing Bella.

All in all, it was a good day.
