AN: This one was inspired by my dad who, on Easter, said, "I can only get away with wearing this shirt on Easter." It's Prompt 16, Purple. Sooo... I hope you enjoy it!
Disclaimer: Oh, I wish I was actually Mrs. Meyer! That is what I'd truly like to be. For if I were actually Mrs. Meyer, everyone would be in love with me!
It's Lilac!
"Come on, Jake!"
"No."
"Please?"
"I said, no."
Bella pouted, feigning hurt. Jake immediately gave in, albeit with a sigh, grabbing the offensive shirt from her hand and sliding it over his head. He was rewarded with a brilliant smile, which made the whole ordeal almost worth it.
He turned around after fastening the buttons and threw out his arms.
"Tada!" he exclaimed, sarcastically.
Bella ignored his sour expression and admired the shirt.
"See? I knew it would look great on you!" She walked around him, taking the piece of fabric in from every angle.
"I don't care how great it looks. I refuse to wear anything associated with the word pink, and that's final."
"It's not pink, Jake. It's lilac."
He raised his eyebrows at her, and she flushed.
"It's in the purple family. And come on! It's Easter! Lilac is festive! Think spring! The flowers are blooming!" By the end of her rant, even Bella could tell that she was sounding slightly insane, and not nearly as sincere as she had meant to.
"Bella, it's the middle of March. Nothing is blooming here yet."
"Fine. Be a spoilsport. Wear black for all I care!" And with that final sentiment, she stomped off to find some more willing company to press her Wal-Mart - Special! on.
Please, Review? I just want to know that somebody is actually reading...
