I own nothing. Stephenie Meyer owns all.
Alice POV.
"Ta-Da!" I called out once Bella, Rosalie and I had made a full spin. "So what do you think?"
I could see Bella slowly backing away in fear, so I grabbed her arm to still her. I remained staring at the guys while I awaited their verdict. After a full minute's silence I began to think, damn….maybe that's why Bella got scared….they do look kind of scary staring at us like that….
Finally Edward found his voice. It was low and also sounded as if he was in pain, along with the look on his face which matched his voice. "You cant be serious? Alice…….? What are you supposed to be anyway?"
I smiled smugly and looked to Rosalie. She smiled back at Bella and me and announced proudly, "We're Charlie's Angels!"
Jasper, Edward and Emmett remained silent as Rosalie explained to them the fact that Charlie missed having Bella around, so we thought it'd be fun to dress up as Charlie's Angels, and send him a photo in the post.
While Rosalie was doing this, my mind ran ragged as I assed the guys costumes. Well done Edward, you pulled off The Crow look well, Emmett, ha-ha, that's a cool Vampire costume, Jasper…..my God he looks hot with glasses on! And with the shirt half open and the tie hanging loose!! Who the hell is he supposed to be? Superman/Clark Kent..? I guess that would explain the superman top poking from under his shirt.
I soon snapped out of it and looked up to Jaspers face. I blushed as I realised that he'd caught me staring, but he was smiling back at me with an apologetic look. What's with that look? I pondered for a few seconds until I heard Bella speak.
"Jasper….that's a kind of boring costume…don't you agree Alice?"
I cocked my head to the side as I studied his costume as a look, rather than his sexiness this time, then replied, "I think it works, it's mysterious and different…" I let my voice trail off before I added that it was also very sexy.
"So you never told us what you thought of our costumes…." Rosalie reminded the guys as she walked to the kitchen to get the digital camera.
I heard Emmett clear his throat then say, "Nice…..but I think that you three should understand now, that being dressed like that means that Jasper, Edward and I won't be able to leave your sides for long…it wouldn't be safe."
I took in what Emmett said and then looked over to Rosalie and Bella. Each of us wore matching costumes of tight red leather shorts with high heeled boots that reached our knees. Our top consisted simply of a short, tight, low cut, red leather jacket that sat just above our navels. Each of us wore sexy laced underwear underneath of blood red colour.
Looking back from Rosalie and Bella, I noticed that we looked HOT tonight, and that it would probably be a good thing to have the guys around us most of the time to keep some of the more creepy guys away from us.
I belatedly nodded my hand and said "Okay, point taken, you can be our nights in shining armour tonight and keep all the creeps at bay!!" Bella and Rosalie laughed along with me on the last bit, and I felt the tension in the room slowly ebb away.
Rosalie came over and demanded that we all get together in a group while she set the camera on timer and placed it on the bookshelf. The guys stood behind us three. I realised that I was stood in front of Jasper as Rosalie reached our group and squeezed her way between Bella and me.
"Hugs everyone!!" Rosalie shouted as Bella chanted the countdown on the camera aloud. I felt Jaspers arms wrap themselves around my waist as Bella called out "5!"
At "4!" I could feel the tension building within me as I felt Jasper lightly tug me back so that I was pressed tightly to his chest.
"3!" I looked over to Rosalie, Emmett, Bella and Edward. I noticed that they too were in the same sort of embrace as Jasper and I, but, "2!" I couldn't help but wonder if they felt the same sort of tension as I could now.
"1" I could feel Jasper rest his chin on the top of my head. Just before the flash went off, I heard him whisper, "Smile."
Rosalie jumped from our formation and made her way to the camera while calling out, "Don't move a muscle!! I'm going to take a few more!!"
As she said this, I could feel Jaspers arms tighten around my waist, even though he'd oddly not released me anyway. I turned my head to look up at his face. I saw the breathtaking smile on his face, and my breath caught.
Bella pulled me from my staring as she began to count down again "20", while Rosalie ran back to Emmett's' arms shouting excitedly, "Quick, we need another pose!! What can we do?"
I watched her reach Emmett, still laughing from her excitement as Emmett smiled wickedly and called out, "Edward, Jasper! Get in character!!"
I stood confused for a second or two, until I felt Jasper hastily move me around and shockingly pick me up high in his arms. One of his arms held me to his at my waist, while the other was around my thighs. Before I got a chance to get embarrassed, I heard Edward calling out in a panicked voice, "What the hell do I do?"
While I wrapped my arms around Jaspers neck to keep me more secure while he called out over his shoulder, laughing, "Just act like you're madly in love!" I held on to Jasper tighter as he began to shuffle me in his arms. A mischievous smile came to his lips as he asked me jokingly, "How does it feel to be this high up?" I scowled at him as I heard Bella shriek. What the hell is Edward doing to her? I wondered.
Bella's countdown was lost from the number 4, but the camera soon flashed. Jasper then slowly let me slide down from his embrace back to the floor. I dashed over to the camera to look at the two photos that we already had.
"Howa bout some girls and boys pictures, then some pairs maybe?" Rosalie asked while Bella and I laughed over the last one where she and Edward were acting 'in love' by just staring at each other…..well they tried. You could clearly see that they were battling to hold back their laughter as were Emmett and Rosalie. Emmett was pretending to bite Rosalie's neck while they laughed.
The guys cleverly agreed with Rosalie's idea of getting more pictures. A wise move my friends….you don't get on the wrong side of our dear Rose! I thought as I made my way to stand behind Rosalie while she took a picture of the guys. She took a few pictures of the guys; most of them had blurred thanks to Emmett trying to bite Edward or Jasper in mid pose.
Next it was our turn. Rosalie handed Jasper the camera while Emmett and Edward stood watching behind him. The three of us were battling our laughter by the end thanks to Emmett who was shouting at us to so some ludicrous poses. After a smack on the back of the head from Edward, we managed to get a decent Charlie's Angels picture to send to Charlie.
I took over the job of pictures taking next, while Bella and Emmett had a 'brother and sister' picture. I also took Jasper and Rosalie's. Bella finished up with taking the last of the pictures of me and Edward.
Kind-of a weird chapter….but I tried! The whole Halloween day's stretched into 3chapters!! Ohhh well, as long as y'all don't complain! : D
Ready for the Halloween party anyone?
