Is That Really You?
Chapter 14
I'm not gonna do a recap. You all know what happened.
Alice's POV
It has been almost a year since Jasper and my first time.
Today is our 1-year anniversary, and Jasper had a special night planned for us.
He said to dress up, and since it was Bella's vacation (she was in St. Barts), I had to go shopping alone.
This is no fun… I thought to myself, as I took a cab down to the mall. I looked out the window as the buildings rushed by.
I pulled out my Ipod and flicked the ON button. The screen lit up, showing what I was listening to on the way to work, which was M79 by Vampire Weekend. I went back to Artists, and found Jeff Buckley. I had bought the whole album, so I found my favorite song, which was Hallelujah.
Well I heard there was
a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But
you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The
baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You
saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew
ya
And she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne
and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the
Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
(Yeah
but) Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've
walked this floor, (You know)
I used to live alone before I knew
ya
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a
victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
Well there was a time when you
let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show
that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy
dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was
Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Maybe
there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how
to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear
at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and
it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelu...
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu...
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallellllluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuujjjaahhhh...Hallelllluuuuuujjaaaaaaaaaahhhh
When the song came to an end, the cab pulled up in front of the mall. I handed the driver a 10 and stepped out of the cab, closing the door. The cool fall breeze rushed over the top of my head, sending my hair in all different directions. When I got that under control, I skipped into the mall. I didn't know why, but I was really happy.
I wormed myself through the crowd, reaching my favorite designer discount store. I was running a little low on cash. Let's just say that I went shopping too much, to cut it short.
"May I help you?" I heard a low voice say from behind me. I spun around, to find myself too close to a 40 year old man's face. I took a step back, and the man's eyes moved to my chest.
"I'm fine. I'm just looking for a dress for a date with my boyfriend." I said, looking at my nails.
"Um… well if you need me, I'll be in the lingerie." He said, winking at me and turning away. I shuddered, and started looking through the dresses. Suddenly I found the perfect one. I grabbed it, and this time there was no crazy woman trying to take it.
I skittered to the dressing rooms, and got a stall. I quickly changed, and went to the mirror. I smiled, and looked over the dress.
It was bright red, and went to the middle of my shins. It was a halter dress, and it was loose, but hugged my chest and hips. It went well with my hair, and it showed off my neck. I was in love. I quickly changed, and ran to the shoes section. In a matter of seconds, I had found the perfect shoes. They were black high-heeled strappy sandals, and they made me look so much taller. That just made me even happier. I bought the dress and shoes, and made a beeline for the bathroom. When I finished, I got a cab and rushed home, hoping not to miss my favorite TV show. When I finally got home, I had missed the first 15 minutes.
"Who cares. I'm just gonna go get ready…" I muttered to myself, slowly walking to my bedroom with my bags.
I closed my door, and checked the clock. It said it was 5:00 PM, so I had two hours. Just enough time. Jasper told me that he would pick me up at 7:15 PM, so I had enough time to get ready.
I stripped, threw my clothes into the hamper, and found a thong. There was no way I was gonna have an underwear line. I got my black strapless bra, and put those on. I slowly pulled my dress up, not wanting to rip or wrinkle the fabric. I zipped up the back, and went into the bathroom. I decided to keep my hair down, so I just ran a comb through it. I put on a light coat of black eye shadow, and some black eyeliner and mascara. I put a little foundation on, and some red lipstick. I walked out of the bathroom, and got my black Armani bag. I took my phone from the charger, I got my Ipod, my lipstick, and my wallet. I skipped to the front door, and slipped on my shoes. I sat on the couch, and watched the clock.
As the minutes went by, I thought. Was Jasper breaking up with me? Did he find someone else? Does he not love me anymore? My head started to hurt, and I held back tears. Jasper wasn't gonna break up with me. I just knew it. Then I heard a soft knock on the door.
I stood up and took three long strides to the door. I took a deep breath, and opened the door.
Standing there in a black tux was Jasper, holding one red tulip.
"Hi Alice." Jasper said shyly and handed me the flower.
"Hey Jasper." I said, giving him a chaste kiss on the lips.
"Let me just put this in water." Jasper nodded, and I went into the kitchen and put it in a vase.
I quickly ran back to Jasper and jumped into his arms.
We kissed a long, deep kiss.
"I love you." He whispered when we came up for air.
"I love you too." I said when we came up for air again.
"Let's go." Jasper said once we broke apart. He pulled me out the door, and I closed it. Jasper grabbed my hand, and dragged me VERY quickly down the stairs and outside.
"What was that for." I gasped when we got outside.
"You'll see." Jasper said mysteriously, as he gave me a light kiss.
We slowly walked around the corner.
"Jasper Cullen. What the fuck is this?!" I screamed.
"Alice, it's just a limo." Jasper said, pulling me into the limo.
Before I could speak, Jasper was on top of me. He pulled the door closed with his foot, and kissed me.
His tongue traced around my bottom lip, and then slowly slipped inside my mouth.
We were kissing for what seemed like hours when the driver opened the door.
I sat up, pulling my dress down from my shoulders. Jasper put his tie and coat back on, and we stepped out as if nothing happened. Then, I looked up. We were in front of one of the nicest restaurants in town. Jasper slid his arm around my waist and escorted me into it.
"I have a reservation under Cullen?" Jasper said, and gave me a kiss on the head.
"Oh yes, come this way." The waiter said, giving me a look over. I think Jasper saw it, because he pulled me closer.
The waiter led us over to a table next to the big window, and we sat down.
He handed us menus, gave me a wink and walked off.
I opened the menu when a piece of paper fell out.
Tyler 917-899-4266
I scowled, and ripped it up.
"Good." Jasper said jokingly, blowing me kiss.
"Have you decided yet?" the waiter Tyler said when he came back over.
"Yeah… Alice?" Jasper said looking me straight in the eye.
"I'll have the steak with the Mexican sauce." I said, not leaving Jasper's eyes.
"And you?" Tyler spat at Jasper.
"I'll have the same as my girlfriend." He said, giving me a smile. I smiled back.
The waiter left in a huff, and I relaxed.
30 minutes later the food came.
I dug in. I was starving.
I saw Jasper take a bit, then look around nervously.
"Jasper? Are you ok?" I asked, looking at him with concern.
"Yeah… Um I have to ask you something." Jasper said, as he wiped his forehead with his napkin.
"Yeah?" I said nervously. I knew what he was gonna say. That he wanted to break up. I pushed the thought away, and took a sip of wine.
When Jasper got down on one knee, my breath caught.
"I love you Alice. With everything that is in me. You are my life. Before I met you, I was a mess. Just a loner. Just Edward and Emmett's brother. But now, I'm Alice's boyfriend. I like that title much more. Alice, I want to be with you for the rest of my life. Will you marry me?" Jasper asked, pulling out a box. He opened it, showing a gold ring with a large diamond.
A tear slowly slid down my face.
"Jasper. Yes. Yes. YES!" I sobbed, flinging myself into his arms. Jasper slid the ring onto my hand, and pulled me into a kiss.
The restaurant exploded in applause. Everyone except Tyler. I didn't care. I was Alice Cullen. I was Jasper Cullen's wife. Forever. Today was the best day of my life. Now I knew why I was so happy today.
