You know you love me. Review.

I sighed as I sat down on Edward's sofa miserably. It seemed every time we tried to prank Nick, he would outsmart us. Why oh why had Charlie invited him over tonight to watch a Cubs game? I hoped that Charlie wasn't beginning to… like Nick. Ugh.

Suddenly, Alice's eyes glazed over. She suddenly burst out giggling.

"Oh… my…" she gasped, clutching her side. I frowned.

"That's brilliant!" exclaimed Edward. I pouted. I was always in the dark, never knowing what was going on. Alice and Edward seemed to be having a silent conversation.

"Of course, run upstairs and do it now," he told her, grinning. She nodded and turned to run full speed up the stairs. Edward turned to me.

"Bella, remember that time you told me you had flirted with Jacob on the beach that time?" he asked me.

I nodded.

"I need you to do it again."

I smiled.

"You want me to flirt with you?" I asked him, playfully.

"No, I don't want you to flirt with me."

I frowned. So much for that…

"Well… who do I need to flirt with?" I demanded.

"Nick Newton."

I screamed.

I rummaged in my draw and found what I was looking for. It was a large bottle about the size of Emmett's hand. From the outside, it looked like you could see clear liquid inside. But that was just how it was designed to look. For example, you could put tomato sauce in the bottle and anyone looking at it from the outside would only see a clear liquid inside, when really, it was a blood red dollop of tomato sauce. That was the trick of it. Emmett had given it to me for Christmas. It was a vital item for our next prank with Nick Newton.

Nick Newton was in for a hell of a shock.

After hearing Edward and Alice's plan, I suddenly burst out laughing. It was the perfect prank to play on Nick Newton!

Alice suddenly bounded down the stairs and handed me a small bottle. I frowned.

"But… um… this is just clear liquid? Edward said you were putting…" I started. Alice cut me off.

"I just mixed up a batch upstairs. It's in there alright. The outside of the bottle is supposed to look like it contains clear liquid. It's a… trick bottle. Emmett gave it to me. You could have coke in there and all you would be able to see from the outside would be clear liquid," explained Alice. I frowned.

"Edward, will you drive me home?" I asked him.

"I'm going on a quick hunt with Jasper soon. We'll be close to the house. Alice can drive you home," he explained. I looked into his eyes. They were on the verge of being black.

"Of course," I muttered. "Well… Alice, do you want to leave now?"

She grinned and bounded out of the front door. I looked into Edward's eyes again.

"Will it work?" I asked him, suddenly unsure. He smiled.

"Of course it will. You won't catch me betting against Alice," he joked. I grinned, wondering how Nick would take our little surprise in a bottle…

Alice's Porsche pulled up outside of Charlie's house. Nick's car was in the driveway. He and Mike had obviously already arrived to watch the Cub's game with Charlie.

"Good luck. Please lie convincingly. We don't want him to get suspicious. And where's Edward?" said Alice.

"Probably off being a jerk somewhere," I grinned. Alice smiled. I opened the door of the Porsche and stepped out into the rain. I slammed the door and turned to run as fast as I could through the rain.

I reached the shelter of the porch and used the key under the eaves to open the front door.

Charlie, Mike and Nick were sitting at the dining room table discussing the game. Charlie and Nick seemed surprised to see me there.

"Hello, Isabella," greeted Nick. I smiled flirtatiously at him.

"Hey, Nick."

He seemed suspicious for a minute but when I dazzled him with a smile his suspicions disappeared.

"Bells, I thought you were having a sleepover with Rosalie and Alice and going to Port Angeles tonight," greeted Charlie.

"Rosalie had to work tonight so we decided to do it another night. Alice and I didn't want Rosalie to miss out, so we cancelled our plans," I lied. Come to think of it, I didn't even think the Cullen's (except for Carlisle) even had jobs. Charlie grinned, obviously happy that I would not be with Edward tonight.

"I didn't know you were coming, Bells. We were about to order pizzas," said Charlie.

"I'd be happy to cook tonight," I offered. Charlie grinned.

"Sure, Bells."

"Do you need any help?" asked Nick. I wanted to scream at him and tell him to leave me alone and go back where he came from, but instead, I just smiled.

"Sure."

He seemed happy as he jumped up and followed me into the kitchen.

"So they're playing Twilight at the movies tonight, and I wondered if you wanted to go," said Nick, sounding hopeful. I smiled that flirtatious smile I knew he loved and batted my eyelids.

"Of course, I'd love to. But what's Twilight? I don't think I've heard of it. Is it any good?" I replied, mentally shuddering at the thought of watching a movie alone with Nick. Nick grinned, happy that I had obliged.

"Oh yes, it's awesome. I've read all of the books. I'm surprised you haven't heard about it," grinned Nick.

"What's it about?" I asked, chopping onions.

"It's about this human girl who moves to this town, and she meets a strange boy there. His name is Ben, her name is Ella. Anyway, this girl develops feelings for the dude. They get closer, and the girl discovers the boy's secret: he is a vampire. Anyway, they get hunted by an evil dude vampire called Jason, who Ben kills. Then the boy leaves and breaks the girl's heart. Then she meets a guy called Macob. Then she nearly drowns at the beach, and her vampire thinks she's dead, so he goes to the royal vamps and asks them to kill him. The girl has to go and save him. And when they get back, Ella is a bitch to Macob and ditches him for Ben, which breaks his heart. Then they get hunted by this chick vampire called Valerie. And Ben kills him. Then Ella and Ben get married and Ella gets pregnant. She nearly dies having her vampire baby and then she gets changed into a vampire by the dude vampire. Then Macob comes back and falls in love with their baby girl. So then they all live happily ever after."

I was clutching the table for support. The movie sounded interesting, and I would probably enjoy it. A girl and guy in love, then the guy leaving (I knew what that was like) and then meeting a guy called Macob and being a bitch. And the rest of it sounded good too. Though I already hated Ella for being a bitch to Macob. I mean, she ditched him for her boyfriend! How horrible is that? But the whole 'vampire' thing scared me for a while. I eventually came around.

"Bella? Are you okay?" asked Nick. I smiled. The word 'vampire' had scared me for a while.

"Sure. Twilight sounds like an interesting movie."

Nick seemed unsure.

"Maybe you should get Charlie to order pizzas," he suggested.

"Sure," I agreed.

"Where's Edward, by the way?" asked Nick. I sighed.

"I hate him! He is such a jerk! All he cares about is his car!" I lied, trying to sound convincing.

"If I were him, I'd be too busy caring about you to even think about cars. He is a jerk. You're too good for him. You need someone else. Me, maybe…"

He muttered that last part, but I still heard it. Annoyed, I pulled Alice's bottle out of my pocket and handed it to Nick.

"Here, you can have this. Edward gives me loads of bottles, but I never use them. He thinks he can buy me with that! What a loser!"

It hurt me to say that about Edward, but if I wanted to butter Nick up, then I had to do the unthinkable.

"What is it?" asked Nick. "Water?"

He thought it was water?

"Um… no, it's not water. What you need to do is pour a bath, and then tip the whole bottle into the water. The water causes it to um… change colour. So um… don't worry if it changes colour when you pour it in. It's supposed to um… help your skin. It gives you smooth skin. All you need to do is sit in the bath for a few minutes and it will sink into your skin. It's excellent, apparently. Alice and Rosalie use it all the time. And you need to dip your head under, too. Just so your face is as smooth as your body," I lied. Nick fell for it. He grinned. This was going to be good.

"Awesome!" he grinned, then his expression changed. "So, um… you and Edward…?"

"I'm not very happy with him right now," I lied.

"Good," grinned Nick. I frowned.

"Oh… um… I mean, why?" he added. I sighed. What could I say?

"He's such a reckless driver! It's annoying, really. So um… are you still working as a delivery guy?"

I was eager to get him off the subject of Edward. It was harder to lie about Edward than it was to lie about anything else.

"Yeah, of course. Who knows, maybe I can deliver you a… special treat," he grinned, before giggling. I frowned. I hope that wasn't his way of… flirting. Ugh. And since when did guys giggle?

"Well… you'd better go um… tell Charlie that he needs to order those pizzas right about now," I said quickly, before Nick could 'flirt' some more. He left the room to tell Charlie and I sighed in relief. That kid was so annoying! Even though he was a little older than me, he was so immature! He didn't even know how to flirt! At least Mike didn't annoy me. I just… was too interested in Edward to think about dating Mike.

Nick returned and I swallowed.

"I'm going to go up and have a shower, and I think I'll skip dinner. I'm not very hungry. I'll just have an early night. Remember to use that bottle I gave you very soon," I lied. He grinned.

"Do you want me to… come upstairs with you? It's very dark up there. You might get lonely."

Flirting again?

"Oh, I think I'll be right," I said, smiling. I skipped up the stairs and into my room. I locked the door behind me and fell to the floor.

"Bella?"

I glanced up, hopeful, and saw Edward stretched out across my bed. I jumped up and lay next to him.

"Nick is so immature!" I complained. Edward chuckled.

"It was worth it, Bella. He'll get the shock of his life when he uses that bottle."

I smiled. He was right. Nick would be shocked. I gasped, suddenly remembering something.

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it! My life just got worse!" I gasped. "I agreed to go to the movies with Nick Newton next Friday night!"

:) Did you like Nick's attempt at flirting? Wow. He is so corny, don't you think? As always, please review! I'm not going onto the next chapter if I don't have at LEAST 5 reviews. I'm sick of only getting a couple for every chapter. :(

Oh, and has anyone ever heard of Silent Hill? If you have, or if you haven't, you should really read this story by Ceillo. Even if you haven't heard of Silent Hill, you should still read this story. :) I believe it's a good story, but I'm the only one that ever reviews for Ceillo. So who wants to help Ceillo out by reviewing her story Room 302?
