Chapter 13: Toes in the Water
I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand
Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand
Life is good today. Life is good today.
I moaned as I heard my phone ring. I grabbed it off the nightstand…annoyed as hell.
"What Alice?"
"Well good morning to you too dear brother."
I sat up and rubbed my eyes. "Yeah yeah, what do you want?"
I heard her huff and I coughed to cover a laugh. "Well mister sir we are going to the beach today…so one get yawls butts out of bed…it's already nine. Also, would you boys be oh so sweet and go to the grocery store for us?"
"Why do we need to go to the store?" I asked.
"That's the girls' job," Emmett mumbled into his pillow.
"Because we need beers and stuff for sandwiches…and I know at least one of you over there loves me and will do this for me."
I laughed. "Sorry we're not all Jasper." As I said his name, Jasper, lying on his stomach, threw his fist in the air. "But sure Ali, we'll do it."
"Awww thanks bro."
"Tell them to get some sunscreen too please!" I heard Bella yell. I laughed because not only did I hear her through the phone but the door as well.
"Will do. See ya in a bit." I hung up and stretched. "Ok come on guys we're being summoned."
"Ugh," Emmett moaned, throwing a pillow at me. "Please go without me."
"Fine, come on Jasper." We both got up and decided to go ahead and put on our swim trunks and shirts. I grabbed the keys, headed to the car and went to the nearest H-E-B. As I got a cart and headed to the aisle for beer, I noticed Jasper was being real quiet.
"Hey man, are you ok?"
"Huh…oh yeah, um just thinking."
"About what?" I asked as I grabbed two cases of Bud Lime.
He rubbed the back of his neck and bit his lip. "Um, I'm planning on asking Alice to marry me tonight, at the beach."
I stopped and looked over at him. I couldn't help but smile. "Really? That's awesome. Do you have a plan?"
He grinned. "Yeah, that's why I'm glad we came out. I need to pick up a few items."
"Well come on man…lets get this going." I motioned for him to lead the way and followed him through the store. I couldn't help but smile…happy for my sister.
))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
We arrived in Galveston close to noon. We found a place and set up camp. The girls laid out their towel and got ready to lay out. I couldn't help but stare as Bella took off her cover ups and revealed her dark blue bikini. It made her skin look so beautiful…wait what? I shook my head and got three beers to hand to the girls.
"Why thank you kind sir," Bella giggled.
I looked down at her. "My pleasure."
She took a sip and returned to her conversation with Alice.
"Come on Edward!" I heard Emmett yell. I took my shirt off and ran down to the water where the guys were. We decided to try out skim boarding. Jasper went first. He looked up towards Alice and the girls. As he did that, he gave an exaggerated wink that sent Alice into a fit of giggles. He threw the board across the water and jumped on it; landing perfectly like he had done it before. Once he jumped off, he grabbed the board and threw his fist in the air.
"Yeah baby, that's what I'm talking about!" he screamed.
I heard the girls cheering and Alice yell, "That's my man…right there. Yeah baby…hey…hey you! Quit ogling him! He's mine!"
We all busted out laughing as Alice called out a group of girls staring at him. They threw her a disgusted look and returned to their conversation, which consisted of giggling and pointing at us.
Emmett nudged me and wiggled his eyebrows. "Hey Edward, there ya go. Go talk to those girls. They are so checking you out!"
I turned to look at the girls. They smiled and waved at me. I then looked up at the girls, noticing Rosalie's and Alice's looks of disgust and Bella's frown. "Nah, that's ok man."
"Oh come one Eddie! You need to get a girl in your life…if you're not going to ask out our girl Bella…go for one of them."
"Really Em. I'm good. Got too much on my plate right now."
Jasper rolled his eyes. "Good lord man, just ask Bella out all ready!" He yelled a little too loud.
"Shut up dude," I said as I looked at the girls who were oblivious to us. "Geez, she's just my friend." I grabbed my board getting ready to go. "Oh, hey Jazz, by the way, did you mention to Em you're asking our sister to marry you tonight?" I threw the board to jump on, right after I caught Emmett's jaw hitting the ground. I luckily landed on the board safely and made it a good ways down the water. When I jumped off, I heard a cat call whistle, and looked towards the girls. I saw Bella grinning and laughing while giving me the thumbs up. I smiled at her, and then headed back to the guys. I couldn't help but notice though, the girls who were looking at us earlier, giving Bella a dirty look. I frowned and continued heading over to the guys.
"Well Jasper, all I have to say is, is you better take good care of my sister…or I will hunt you down," Emmett said as he shoved Jasper.
He laughed. "I wouldn't expect anything less. I love Alice…more than my own life."
"Awwww, who knew Jasper had a soft side," I said. He then pushed me into the water, which resulted in us guys wrestling. Yeah, I know we're like kids…but who cares.
))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
It was evening and Emmett and I were walking back up to where the girls were. They had on their jackets since it had gotten cooler, and were sitting around our little bonfire listening to music.
"Hey, um Alice," I said.
She turned around to face us. "Hey where's Jasper?"
"He said he wanted you to meet him down that way. Think he wants a romantic walk with you," Emmett said while wiggling his eyebrows.
Bella and Rose awww'd as Alice got up brushing off the sand. "I love my Jasper. He's so sweet!" She skipped off in the direction we came from.
"Ok come on girls…we don't want to miss the show," I said.
"Huh?" Both Bella and Rose answered.
"Just, come on." We led the girls down the beach until we saw a faint glow.
JPOV (I just couldn't help myself.)
I twisted the box in my pocket, completely nervous. What if this was too fast? What if she said no? I bit my lip, wondering if this was the right thing to do, until…
"Jasper?" I heard my angel ask.
That's when I knew, this was right. I saw Alice standing in the circle of tiki torches with me, her eyes wide with wonder. I walked up to her and grabbed both her hands in mine.
"Alice…Alice. I just wanted you to know how much I love you."
She smiled at me. "And I love you too."
I grinned down at her. "Alice, knowing you these past ten years, and being with you for the past five has made me realize something."
I saw a little bit of fear in her eyes as she asked, "What?"
That's when I got down on my knee, as she threw her hands on her mouth. "That's I don't want to spend a day without you by my side." I pulled the box from my pocket and opened it. "So, Mary Alice Cullen…will you make me the happiest man in the world, and marry me?"
She then lunged at me, knocking me to the ground, kissing me.
"Yes, yes Jasper. Oh my gosh yes!" She returned to kissing me. Just then we heard the whoops and scream of our friends. We turned to look at them as they clapped, along with some other bystanders on the beach. As I slipped the ring onto Alice's left third finger, I knew that my life could only get better, now that she agreed to marry me.
