CHAPTER 3: a new day

EDWARD'S POV

I quickly covered my mouth. I did NOT just sheik. My vocal cords have not even been able to go that high since I was 11! "BELLA!" I tried to sound mad, but I just sounded whinny.

"I'm sorry angel, but I believe this is for the best." This isn't happening. This CAN'T be happening.

"Okay", I told myself in my head. Gosh, was I happy no one could read MY thoughts, "She is trying to teach you a lesson. All you need to do is make her think you and Alice learned it. You'll be fine. You can do this."

" But Bella, honey, dear, sugar pie, you need to think rationally. How could we ever really pull this off, I mean, we have school tomorrow." I tried.

"Oh, well, you will both just go to each other's classes. And don't even pretend you couldn't walk into a random classroom anywhere in our school, and ace the class without even trying." She simply replied. Gosh, I wish I could read her mind as easily as I could everyone else's. Wait. It seems really quite. Quieter that it has ever been… for me. The voices in my head. They are missing. Oh no, when Bella changed us, it must have changed our powers too! I rolled my eyes, and when I did this, I caught a glimpse of Alice in the corner of my eye except… it wasn't Alice. It was I. And I looked like I just saw a ghost.

ALICE'S POV

Oh no. It was all I could think. All I could probably say if I tried. Oh. No. Bella can't do this to me. I don't want to be Edward! I CAN'T be Edward.

"Ouch." I said. Everyone in the room looked at me. I realized it was the first thing I have said.

"What's the matter?" Carlisle asked.

"I don't know. I just, I have such a head ache all of a sudden." Why were they all being so LOUD? "Shhh!!"

"Um… no one is talking, Alice."

"What? you are all talking at the same time."

"Oh my", said Esme, "you and Edward must have switched powers, along with bodies."

"Holy crap. CONTROL YOUR THOUGHTS PEOPLE! O, and how did you know we switched bodies?"

"Well, when Bella flicked her wrist, and Edward, or… you, flipped out, we kind of got the idea."

"Oh my gosh, this is gonna be SO funny. Like, you guys have no idea." Emmett snickered.

"Shut up", Edward said from across the room. It was so strange, watching myself. Hopefully this wouldn't last long enough for me to get used to it. But I know Bella won't let us get outta this the easy way (forcibly). We would need to gain something from it. So, all we had to do was pretend to be better. Easy enough.

"Well, what are we going to do to hide this from the town?" Rosalie asked.

"Easy", Bella stated. I kept trying to glare at her, but she never caught my eye." They will simply live, or well, act like the other. Dress like the other. Talk like the other. BE the other."

LATER THAT NIGHT

This day was the worst day of my… existence. I have been sitting up here in my room, with the door locked for about 5 hours, and soon I would have to go to school, and that would do nothing to help my situation. Of coarse, if anyone really wanted to get in, they could easily break through the door. But I don't think anyone dared. Jasper wouldn't even give me my good-night kiss when I said I was going upstairs, because he said, quote, "sorry, but that would feel way too much like I was making out with Edward. And I'm not down with that." If I could cry, I would.

EDWARD'S POV

This is defiantly the strangest night I've ever had. And of coarse Emmett isn't making it any better. Here he comes now.

"What's the matter shorty?"

"Get away from me Emmett. I am so not in the mood."

"Meow. Kitty got claws. Is it your time of the month or something?"

"Emmett, you're retarded. 1st of all, I am NOT a girl. This is just temporary. 2nd of all, Alice is a vampire, so it's NEVER the 'time of the month', numb nuts."

"Yeah well---", Emmett started, but I couldn't hear the rest. Before he could finish his sentence, I got a vision. There was a huge white flash. I heard it happen before I saw it. "Oh no!" I heard myself say, or well, Alice, but I knew it was myself.

"Oh yes little sister!" Emmett was backing me up into a wall and reaching out… then, it all went black.

"Emmett", I said. He hadn't even realized that I hadn't heard a word of his insult. "What ever you are thinking about doing… don't."

"O, well whatever could you mean sissy?" I saw him move closer. I didn't know exactly what he was gonna do, but I new he exceeded my strength in Alice's body, and I wasn't going to like that. He took another step towards me. I jumped up and made a run for the kitchen.

"GOTCHA!" Emmett yelled.

"Damn it." I had forgotten that I wouldn't run at my normal speed. Emmett picked me up in his arms and held me like a baby.

"HAHAAH! Now you are mine, Alice!"

"I'M EDWARD!"

"Yeah… Edward with boobies. Hehe"

"I hate you Emmett" just then Rosalie walked in.

"Emmett! ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME WUTH ALICE?!"

"Huh? Nonononno, this is Edward… remember?"

"Oh. ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME WITH EDWARD?!"

"No! I'm just tormenting him", Emmett said with a grin.

"Oh. Ok." She said. And stalked out of the room with a walk that would make a supermodel cry. I squirmed and fought for what seemed like forever.

"RAPE RAPE!" I screamed.

"What was that?" I heard Esme ask from upstairs.

"Oh, Emmett is just torturing Edward." Rosalie said in a nonchalant voice.

"EMMETT! I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU HURT MY BODY!" I heard my voice yell from Alice's room.

"Don't worry, I won't do any permanent damage." Emmett yelled back.

"Time for some more torment" Emmett said.

"STOP" I heard Carlisle yell from upstairs. My savior. "It's time for school kids. Alice, go get the Volvo."

"Um, you mean Edward. Edward go get the Volvo. Right?" I said, very confused.

"No. Actually, I mean Alice. She has to drive the Volvo, and everyone to school." He said.

Oh. No…
