Author's Note: So… I couldn't just leave Emmett hanging we have to see the makeover Jasper is going to get from Alice, (also in this chapter: Jasper's revenge, Rosalie's help, Edward's secret, Emmett's dare, Alice's fun, And more that is too revealing to share right now o;)
Disclaimer: I do not own the books. Simply my ideas.
So… I couldn't find a song, so I set my trusty iPOD to shuffle, and here's the song for this chapter. :3
"If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight"
A Thousand Miles – Vanessa Carlton
Bella's POV
My eyes widened in shock as I saw what Jasper was doing. Well, I don't care what his motives; this is something I have to see. So I walked, more like tripped, my way into the bathroom where Alice already had Jasper's head in the sink as she rubbed some 'manly' shampoo into his thick, blonde hair (She can't get rid of all his dignity right? Totally wrong.)
By the time Alice had finished with him I was rolling on he floor, and if it wasn't for Esme's impeccable cleaning abilities, I knew I would have dirt and dust all over me. Jasper looked so funny, but I had to admit, if it was Edward I'd be totally turned on.
His hair was in an array of spikes, it kind of reminded me of a shorter blonder version of Alice's jet black pixie-like hair. He had eye liner on his face and light green eye shadow. Alice had applied some foundation and powder over his already flawless skin (vampire, duh he has perfect skin) and my personal favorite, the tube of extra-shine lip gloss that Alice applied liberally to his lips.
She then dragged him off to get an outfit. She picked out some jeans that seemed so tight that they made me wonder why he had them in the first place. Then she grabbed him a collared polo and waited for him to change.
I was rolling on the floor again with hysterics as I saw him emerge. The look on his face was priceless and I would never forget to tell Edward about it… maybe I can use that as leverage later on… hmm.
Then Alice seemed to notice me and she scowled her disapproval. "BELLA!" she shouted, "I just finished your makeover and now I have to redo your hair, thank god we hadn't changed you into your dress yet!"
Jasper took it upon himself to scurry out of the room as Alice's attention shifted to me. God, he was a lucky vampire to get out of her clutches when she was on a make over high.
Edward's POV
I looked down at the items, and had no idea how to choose, the prices ranged so dramatically! A couple of time I would pick one up, hopeful that Rose would approve, but I knew that was in vein. She and I both clearly knew why I brought her here.
Then I saw it! It was the perfect thing, for my perfect angel. I saw Rosalie's mouth drop open and I knew she approved of my choice.
Emmett's POV
When Jasper came back into Edward's room I boomed with laughter as he scowled at me. Oh lord, I'm glad hell is hot, because this is a lot better than I thought it was; hell must be ten times worse than the hottest desert out there.
"Now it's your turn." He said, forebodingly and I knew I would not get off easily.
I just grunted so he knew I was listening. To add to his dramatic effect, he grabbed the remote from my hand and turned off the baseball game I was watching "hey--"
He cut off my protests as he began to tell me my dare, "Emmett, I dare you to go to yours and Rosalie's room, and find her highest pair of stilettos and one of her most revealing outfits, you will then take me Alice and Bella to the supermarket where you will shout to any passing male 'I need a ride to the drag club!' you understand me?"
My mouth just hung wide open, this was much worse than what I had told him. He could feel my shock and disbelief and he simply said, "I'm as sure that I want you to do this dare as I am sure that hell is hot. Meet you downstairs in 15 minutes; I have to get the girls ready."
I was extremely pissed to say the least. But I couldn't turn down a dare. That's just not my style. So I reluctantly walked to mine and Rosalie's room. God, why did she have so many stilettos? I couldn't really complain about the revealing outfits, I liked those, I liked those a LOT. Here goes nothing.
Alice's POV
" Alice? Bella?" Came Jasper's voice from our doorway. I was just finished fixing Bella's hair and I hadn't put her dress on because of the vision I just had of Emmet in one of Rosalie's 'alone time with Emmett' outfits and 5 inch stilettos in the supermarket. This was going to be great.
"We going to the supermarket?" I asked, bouncing up and down in excitement.
"Aw man, you had a vision before I was able to tell you!" Jasper pouted.
"Well, I didn't hear anything; I bet you're going to make him say something to make it even more funny." I said, trying to comfort him and suppress my urge to giggle at the same time.
"Oh! I wanna go!" Shouted Bella from the bathroom, I had naturally told her everything from my vision, and she wanted to see this in person even more than I did.
So we were off, headed to the supermarket, with Emmett wearing a mini skirt that had rhinestones all over it and a halter top that went up way past his abs and down way past where Rosalie's boobs would be. His stilettos were, as Alice said before, 5 inches tall and I added some lip gloss to add to the effect.
Rosalie's POV
Edward finally got the best one, I hadn't even noticed it before, but it was marvelous. I knew Bella would love it.
It was, of course, a ring, and it was fabulous. It was white-gold with little ivy vines twisting up the ring until it got to the middle, in the middle were three larger ivy leaves that lead to a 3 karat diamond. Up the vines were tiny opals until you got nearer to the top where the opals turned to topaz stones, and I knew we would never find anything she could ever like more. (A/N: no picture, I made this ring up, but if you happen to see anything similar to this, let me know I'd like a picture for my profile)
Edward was thrilled with my obvious delight.
"We'll take this one." He said to the man at the counter.
"Alright that'll be--" the man said, but my mind had already wandered off. I was getting that 'Emmett-is-doing-something-extremely-stupid-that-I-would-not-approve-of' feeling. Great.
"Alright, and I'd like to have 'forever' carved into the ring, I can pay you double if you can have it ready in the next 15 minutes, but I want it in my script, it'll mean more to her, if that is at all possible." Edward was saying to the clerk.
"Of course sir, I'll get to it right away," said the man.
Fifteen minutes later we were on our way back to Forks. I was bubbling over with excitement, and Edward seemed content to just stare at the black velvet box that he would soon give to Bella.
When we got home, we found it empty other than Esme. "Edward, where are they?" I whined, I wanted to get back to Emmett as soon as possible.
Edward didn't answer me, instead he boomed with laughter and turned his Volvo around in the driveway, he hit 100 before we were out on the street. Something was up.
When we reached the grocery store, I could see Alice's car, so I knew that they were inside. What the hell were they doing in there? When we got inside I could not believe my eyes. I was furious.
It was the strangest thing I had ever seen. Emmett was in one of my outfits in my favorite pair of stilettos asking men if they knew where the drag club was. Alice and Bella were laughing hysterically, holding onto each other for support and Jasper was standing in the shadows, perched against one of the isles, trying to suppress his laughs. Jasper looked funny too, he was wearing very tight pants, his hair was nicer than usual and he was wearing… makeup?
"Emmett Cullen, what the hell are you doing in my clothes--" I said, starting my rant but Edward interrupted me, trying to get his two-cents in somehow.
"Since when were Carlisle and I the only straight males left in this family?" He said, letting a few giggles out here and there.
Suddenly Alice went rigid and her eyes glazed over. If she could have been sobbing, she would have been, even before the vision was over. Jasper grasped her in his arms and she looked at all of us with pleading eyes. "We need to get back home." She said.
Edward had obviously seen her vision through her thoughts and he would not budge, he just stood his ground and let the growls rip from his chest. People were staring now, and I was getting frantic. Bella came to the rescue as she put her hand on his arm to sooth him. He calmed down and slid his arm around Bella's waist dragging her to the car.
We were going even faster than we had to get to the supermarket. Edward was going 120 before we left the parking lot and pushed his car to 150 before we were home.
When we were inside Edward looked at Bella with sad eyes, "Bella I--" he started.
A/N: Ohhh. Cliffy for you, it's not a huge one but it's still a cliff hanger. What was Alice's vision, and when is Edward going to give Bella that amazing ring? Well, hopefully I can update tomorrow, which is Saturday so I might update twice. You never know evil grin
