Hey guys! I'm soooo sorry! I haven't posted in (counts on fingers)… 2 FUCKING days! I'm a horrible person! I know! Well, just to get this point across; this chapter isn't only shopping. It's Bella and Alice shopping, AND Alice's date with Jasper. Aren't you happy? I am! And, Alice knew Jasper before, since Edward was her best friend. So they saw each other all the time, but they didn't remember each others names since they hadn't seen each other in a long time. Well, ENJOY!
Is That Really You?
Chapter 11
"What should I wear?" I asked. I had to know. There is so much to pick from!
"Dress comfortable." He said, blew me a kiss, and walked out the door.
Comfortably? That narrows it down…
Alice's POV
I asked Bella if she would come with me, and I gave her my best puppy dog eyes. She finally gave in, after I fell to ground begging.
She seems to not be affected by my puppy dog eyes.
That's the first person.
It was already 2 PM, and the day of the date.
We had a lot to do. I had to get a dress, shoes, my hair and make-up done, and my nails and toenails painted. First, we went to Tory Burch for a dress and shoes. We looked around for 2 and a half hours, when suddenly I saw the perfect dress, but with the wrong hands on it. This woman with pasty blond hair and a really fake tan was looking at it, and holding it up to her disgusting body in front of the mirror.
When I get that dress, I'm really gonna have to wash it.
I slinked over to her, and pounced on her back. She screamed a high pitched squeak, and I covered her small annoying mouth with my hand.
It muffled out her screech, and I slowly got off her back with my hand still on her mouth.
I turned her around, so she was looking at me.
"Give me the fucking dress." I whispered in a deadly tone, leaning my face towards hers.
She handed me the dress, and I walked back to a stunned Bella, with a proud smile on my face.
I looked down to examine the dress.
I sighed, finally seeing it in the right hands.
It really was beautiful. It was mid thigh length, and brown. Everything except the neckline, the cuff line, and the bottom of the dress was brown sparkles. (On my profile!)
I walked into the dressing room, with a still speechless Bella trailing behind me.
I stripped, and pulled on the dress, zippering the back. I looked at myself in the mirror, and it looked amazing on me. It hugged my curves perfectly, and everything was great except for the fact that I was gonna need a strapless bra. I was pretty sure I had one at home…
I strolled out, and showed Bella my dress.
"Wow. Jasper is gonna pass out when he sees you." She giggled, as I did a quick spin.
I ran back into the dressing room, and hurried to get undressed, and back into my clothes. It was starting to get dark outside, and I guessed it was about 5 PM.
We hurried out, and started to look at the shoes. I stopped in my tracks, as I spotted the perfect shoes. They were brown, the same color as my dress, and sandals. They had the signature Tory Burch symbol on them. (Picture on profile too!)
In 5 minutes we were out of the store, on our way to the salon.
30 minutes later my hair was stick straight, but still a little spiky at the ends. I had on light brown eye shadow, light brown eyeliner, and light brown eye mascara. Bella made the suggestion since I was wearing all brown, and I obviously listened to her. She is the editor of Vogue. Who wouldn't? They put on light pink lip-gloss, and light pink blush. I bought the lip-gloss so I could fix it up if anything happened. Just at the thought I started to blush! Ah! I'm becoming Bella! Bella also said I should go neutral, since Jasper said to be comfortable. Then, they painted my nails and toenails a dark red. I paid, and Bella and I hailed a cab to get back to my apartment.
"Bye Bella! See you tomorrow!" I said, giving Bella two air kisses on her cheeks.
"Good luck Alice!" She said, and jumped back into the cab to hurry back to the office.
I trudged up the stairs to my 3rd floor apartment, and started to get ready. All I had to do was slip on my strapless bra, and my dress and shoes. I had shaved my legs the night before, so I decided to go bare legged.
I grabbed my light pink Armani purse, and went down into the lobby to wait for Jasper.
Then he walked in. Jasper was wearing lightly faded baggy blue jeans, and a washed out dark green sweater. He blond hair was all ruffled, but in a perfect way. He was gorgeous.
He looked around the lobby, and caught my eye. I smiled, and he ambled over and pulled me into a hug.
"You look fantastic." He whispered in my ear, and I felt him warm sweet breath on the side of my face.
He let go, and gave me one of his award winning smiles. He grabbed my hand, and brought me out side, where he hailed a cab. We got in, and gave the driver the directions. I didn't know where we were going, but Jasper started rubbed small circles on my palm, and I instantly relaxed.
Suddenly we were whisking over the Brooklyn bridge.
The drive took forever, but the whole time we just talked. Jasper always found a way to make me laugh. Every once in a while he would run his hand though his hair, looking nervous.
Then the cab stopped. I looked out the window, and we were in front of the gate to Coney Island. I gulped down a scream, and started bouncing up and down in my seat.
"Coney Island?!?!? I've always wanted to go to Coney Island! I haven't been here since I was like 5! What ride can we go on first?" I half yelled, half squeaked. I was so excited!
"Calm down there cow girl." Jasper laughed as we got out of the cab.
"How 'bout we go on the Cyclone first? Emmett said that is was a lot of fun." Jasper asked, looking at me with his big, blue eyes. They were like the ocean. I just wanted to jump into them.
"Su..re." I stuttered, looking away from his eyes. I heard him chuckle, and he took my hand and lead me over to the really big wooden roller costar. I was really scared, but I kept my face free of emotions. There was no way I was letting Jasper find out I was a chicken.
"Let's go. I said bravely, as I took Jasper's hand and pulled him into the line. For about 30 minutes, we waited, chatting. I got to know him so much more.
Suddenly, we were at the front of the line. I took a deep breath, and pulled Jasper into the costar. We grabbed a two seater, and pulled down the safety bars and buckles.
Suddenly, we were off. I screamed and screamed, and then it was over. The whole time Jasper screamed along with me.
By the time we had gotten away from the line, we were hysterically laughing. Then I started throwing up in the nearest garbage can. The whole time Jasper just rubbed my back, humming an unknown tune to my ears. When I finished, Jasper ran and got me a bottle of water.
"Thanks. I would kiss you, but I smell horrible." I muttered, taking a gulp of my water. I froze. Did I just say that out loud?
I looked at Jasper, and he was smirking. I finished the water, and threw it in the garbage. Suddenly, Jasper's lips were on mine, but only for a second. He pulled away, and gave me a dazzling smile.
"Let's go." He whispered, taking my hand and leading me to the next ride.
It was starting to get dark, and we had ridden every ride in the park. I didn't throw up again, and I was glad for that.
We decided to take the subway home instead of a cab 'cause it was faster, and cheaper.
We rode home in silence. Jasper was reading his book, giving my side long glances every once in a while. I was listening to my Ipod, and looked at him sometimes too.
Jasper walked me home, still in silence. Our hands were locked the whole time.
He walked me to my door.
"I had a great time." I whispered meekly, looked down.
"Me too." I heard him say, and he lifted my chin, pulling me into another light, quick kiss.
"See you soon?" I asked.
"Yeah." He said, as we swapped numbers.
Jasper gave me a quick kiss on the cheek, and walked down the stairs.
I unlocked my door, and closed it after me. I slid down the door, thinking.
Why wasn't he actually kissing me? It seemed like he didn't really like me. Maybe he was just shy. Maybe he just didn't like me. The two sides of my mind fought, as I wondered which one to believe.
Did you like it? Thanks for reading! I made it super long, just for you.
Please review!
Thanks!
And give me ideas!
Thanks again!
Love and kisses!
