Chapter 16
"I'll be back before you know it," Edward said to me before he was out of my sight.
"Bye, I love you, have fun!" I yelled, and heard him laugh. I heard my door open, and then close again.
I never thought this torture would end.
I had spent the two hours in my bathroom, with my hair being pulled in all directions, being poked with various makeup items, and being shoved into an outfit that I knew must've been over $100.
It was awful. "Alice..." I whined for the billionth time in the past two hours, "how much longer until I'm free?"
She laughed that musical laugh that I loved. "I'm almost done, Bella. And then when I finish, I can take a picture of you and show it to Edward. He'll be very upset that he didn't get to see you like this," she said with a smirk. I laughed.
"I'm sure he'll survive. But me, on the other hand..."
"Oh, Bella, your fine."
"No, I'm not. I think one of these days I'll have been poked and prodded by you too many times and then I'll die."
Alice laughed. "Well, until then, you are my Barbie doll." I groaned. At times I got the feeling that Alice was my own personal demon, summoned to make me suffer.
Alice adjusted my hair one last time before saying that she was finished. I stood up to look in a full length mirror.
I gasped when I saw the girl who was looking back at me. She was beautiful, to say the least.
Now, I had never really been the vain type. I never considered myself beautiful, I never looked in a mirror and thought "I'm pretty today!" never spent hours putting on makeup so I would look perfect. But now when I looked in the mirror, I did—or said, rather—something I never thought I would.
"I'm...gorgeous..." I breathed.
"That is an understatement," Alice said, obviously proud of her word. "Now, time to take a picture!" Alice practically sang.
We spent the next 15 minutes trying to get the perfect picture of me. after a while, we got one that I loved. I never knew I could look so attractive.
After Alice got her perfect picture, she told me that it was time to put my regular clothes back on. To my surprise as much as hers, I wanted to keep these clothes on.
"I feel so beautiful, Alice! And Edward should be back soon, I really want him to see this," I said.
"Fine," she replied. Suddenly, her face went black, and I knew she must be having a vision. When her face turned back to normal, she looked at me with an expression that I couldn't read.
"Well, when Edward is taking your clothes off you, please tell him not to throw them on the floor. I don't want them to get wrinkled."
I blushed a deep shade of red. Alice laughed and grabbed my hand.
"Come on, lets go downstairs and eat. I'm sure your hungry." I nodded gratefully, I was starving.
"What do you want?" she asked when we arrived in the kitchen.
"You'll make me something?" I asked in surprise. She nodded. "I hope you're a better chef than Edward..." I muttered. She heard me, of course, and laughed.
"I'm sure I'm much better," Alice replied with confidence.
She began to get some random ingredients out of my cupboards and my fridge. I had no idea what she was planning on making me.
"Alice, what...?"
"Oh, don't worry, Bella. I know what I'm doing. Now, I sort of want this to be a surprise, so can you leave for a second?" I nodded, walked into the living room, and sat down on the couch.
Not even 2 minutes later, she called me to tell me that my meal was finished. I walked into the kitchen to see a turkey sandwich. I plain, ordinary, turkey sandwich.
I looked over at Alice and gave her a questioning look, and she just shrugged. "I wanted to confuse you, so I got out a lot of random things. The only thing I really know how to make is a turkey sandwich, so that's what I made!" she said happily. I laughed, and she joined in.
I sat down and took a bite of the sandwich. Surprise surprise, it was delicious.
"Yum. Thanks, Alice," I said between chews. I looked over at the clock and saw that it said 5:43.
Only 15 minutes until Edward got back.
As I was finishing my sandwich, Alice had another vision. When it was over, she squealed with glee.
"What did you see, Alice?" I asked her.
"Oh...um...nothing..." she said suspiciously.
I narrowed my eyes at her. "What. Did. You. See." She shook her head.
"Really, Bella, it was nothing." I could tell she was lying because she was practically jumping up and down in delight. But I let it go, knowing I wouldn't be able to get any information out of her.
"Alice, just tell me one thing. Was it a good vision?" I asked. It was sort of a stupid question, seeing that she was squealing with joy, but I asked her anyway.
She looked at me with a huge grin. "It was a very good vision."
"What vision?"
I turned to look at where the voice was coming from. I saw him standing in the doorway, in all his vampiric perfection.
Edward.
He must have arrived back early from his hunting trip, because when I glanced at the clock it was only 5:50.
Edward walked over to me and gave me a quick kiss.
"How was your hunt?" I asked him.
"It was fine. But whats this I hear about a vision?" He hadn't taken his eyes off my face since he walked in, but now he turned to look at Alice. I could tell that she was talking to him in her thoughts. "Oh..." he said. Then he nodded, and I saw Alice's eyes light up with happiness. Then Edward turned to look back at me, but he did a double take when he saw my outfit.
"Bella...you look...beautiful..." he breathed. He looked up and down my body. "Alice..." he said. I could tell it was supposed to be a thank you, but he was so mesmerized by me that he couldn't say much. I loved the rare times when I had this effect on him.
I looked over at Alice, and she winked at me, then left Edward and I alone.
He looked at my face again, and then brushed my cheek with the back of his hand.
"So...you like this?" I asked, gesturing to my clothes.
" 'Like it' doesn't even begin to describe it," he said. I grinned he leaned in to kiss me, but I stopped him, remembering something.
"Alice wanted me to tell you not to throw my clothes on the floor when you take them off me so they don't get wrinkled," I said. He chuckled.
"I'll try, but I may be a bit too preoccupied to remember," he said. Then he kissed me.
I thought I had gotten over my crazy reactions to kissing him, but I guess not. Because when our lips met, I freaked out. I practically threw myself on him, and the best part was he didn't stop me.
I was very glad that he had taken the time to hunt, because now I didn't have to worry about him losing control as easily. I still knew it was a possibility, but now he had power over his senses. He wasn't going to hurt me, that much I could tell.
He picked me up, and I had my legs wrapped around his waist. With his amazing vampire speed, he ran up to my room and laid me down, without breaking the kiss. His hands roamed all over my body, and after a while he began to kiss my neck. I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Edwar..." I moaned. He moved his lips and kissed under my ear, then moved his lips across my cheek, chin, and finally to my other ear. I sat up and felt him playing with the bottom of my shirt. I could tell that he wanted it off me, but wasn't sure if he should take it off me. I settled his decision by ripping it off, and he grinned. Then I reached for his shirt and pulled it off him and we began to kiss again.
I don't know how long we were up in my room making out, but eventually we heard Charlie's car drive up. I jumped up from where I had been laying on Edward and grabbed my shirt and pants. We had forgotten to follow Alice's orders to not throw the clothes on the floor; we were a bit preoccupied to take them off and fold them neatly. I hoped Alice wouldn't be too mad.
Edward and I rushed downstairs and turned on the TV so it looked like that's what we had been doing the whole time.
Charlie looked sort of sad and angry when he walked in.
"Whats wrong, Dad? Hard day at work?" I asked. He looked at me and shook his head, and then looked over to Edward. He seemed to get angrier as they made eye contact.
Edward gave Charlie a pleading look, and Charlie sighed, composed his face, and nodded.
I looked from Edward to Charlie with a puzzled look on my face. What is going on here?
Just then Alice walked into the living room from upstairs, like she had been here the whole time. She probably didn't want Charlie to think Edward and I had been here alone.
"Oh, hello Charlie!" she said with a smile. Charlie looked at Edward and inclined his head towards Alice, as if to ask "does she know?" Edward nodded and Charlie looked over at Alice.
At first Alice looked confused like I did, but then comprehension dawned on her face, along with a huge smile. She raised her eyebrows at Charlie like she was saying "isn't it GREAT!"
Now I was freaked out.
"Whats going on here...?" I asked.
"Nothing," they replied quickly, all at the same time. I narrowed my eyes at them.
I looked Charlie in the eye and stared him down. He shrugged, and I noticed that he still looked a bit angry.
I looked over to Alice, who shook her head and made a motion to zip her lips. This was incredibly frustrating.
Finally I turned my head to stare at Edward.
"It's nothing, love, don't worry," he said.
"It is NOT nothing! You tell me what is going on here RIGHT NOW!" I yelled.
He walked over to me and looked into my eyes. "You'll find out soon enough," he said. "I promise."
I almost melted.
"Mmmkay..." I whispered, enchanted by him. He leaned down to give me a reassuring peck on the lips, but I freaked out again and basically attacked him again. It took him by surprise, and I could tell that for some reason he didn't want to kiss me back, but he couldn't resist.
I ran my fingers through his hair and he but his hands on my back, pulling me closer to him. I opened my mouth a little, and he did the same. I was very surprised that he let me go this far, but then he realized what he was doing and pulled back slightly, but continued to kiss me.
I had this weird feeling that we shouldn't be kissing right now, but I ignored it. This kiss was amazing. Then I heard a strange noise come from behind us.
It was someone clearing their throat.
Crap. I forgot about Charlie. He was still in the room, and he just saw me and Edward make out, right before his eyes. This might be a problem.
"Edward..." he said. I could tell he was trying not to explode, "I think you need to leave now..." Edward nodded and left. Alice muttered something about leaving too, and then she walked out the door.
Charlie turned to me.
"ISABELLA MARIE SWAN!!!!!!"
Yes, this was definitely going to be a problem.
Ooooooooo...she's in trouble. Lol.
