Hey guys!! thanx for all the reviews...and srry for the late update...wow, it's almost been a MONTH!! oops...srry, i'm becoming really lazy...anyhow, this chappie has no edward...srry, but has a lot of 'girl time' between bella, alice, and rosalie...

Chapter Two

"NOOOOOOOOO!! I'm too young to die!!" I shrieked, clawing at the door.

Alice smirked and pulled me off the door. I don't know how I could fall for Alice's puppy-dog eyes - AGAIN!! It was so frustrating!! One minute we were celebrating my easy victory, then Rosalie just happens to mention shopping, and then they both double-team on me and drag me into the car. GRRRRR!!

"Oh, c'mon! It can't be that bad Bella!!" Rosalie said. Seeing the dire look on my face, she continued, "Fine, for every 10 sets of girly-girl clothes, you get 1 set of clothes from the boy's section."

I frowned.

"Okay, for every 5..." Rosalie compied.

I sighed.

"4?" Alice shot Rosalie a glance. She was going a stretch too far on Alice's side.

My eyes still narrowed.

"3! And that's final!"

Alice huffed, exasperated. I kept my frown on, but nodded.

All three of us looked down at my boyish clothes.

"Why don't you get over him?" Rosalie blurted out in disgust, "I mean, you already dumped him, didn't you?"

"Yeah, but it's not my fault boy's clothes are so comfortable!" I argued back indignantly.

I sighed, and blew my bangs out of my face, "It's just easier this way."

"Yeah, you're voice can be inconveniently deep sometimes," Rosalie huffed.

"And you are definitely a flattie..."Alice continued, looking down at my somewhat deflated chest. Ouch, that one hurt.

I glared them into silence.

5 HOURS OF SHOPPING LATER

"My legs are KILLING me!!" I stopped near the food court. My eyes brightened at the prospect of eating.

"Let's stop and eat!!" I exclaimed, calling to Alice and Rosalie, who were chatting animatedly about the clothes they had bought. They stopped, rolled their eyes, and complied.

Alice, Rosalie, and I all bought salads - but I bought 2 pans of extra pizza. YUUUUUMMMMMY!! By the time Alice and Rosalie were halfway through with their salads, I was done with mine and moving on. I rolled up the pizza slices so that it made a sandwich/burrito. Alice gagged and Rosalie looked just about ready to puke.

"How do you eat all that, maintain your waistline, and keep your face clean?" Rosalie asked, thoroughly amazed. She had seen me eating before, but that was when I was quite full.

"Fast metabolism," was my quick, mumbled reply over the second pan of pizza.

After we had our food and a coffee shake each, Alice and Rosalie enthusiastically resumed shopping. Although my mood had considerably brightened by the food, I remained solemn. That is, until I saw THE store.

HOT TOPIC!!

I started toward it; my pace quickening as I got closer. But I was yanked back with a "oh no you don't," and hauled back over. For a small pixie, Alice had surprisingly brute strength - which is pretty scary when it comes to shopping.

I looked like a neglected puppy as Alice and Rosalie dragged me toward...who knows where? I turned around, expecting another Abercrombie and Fitch. Instead, to my horror, there was VICTORIA'S SECRET!!

"NOOOOO!! NO! NO! Anywhere but there!!" I screamed as if I were a maniac. I grabbed on to the nearest wall I could find and held on for dear life.

"This place has to be better than Hot Topic, at least!" Rosalie was irritated.

People were starting to stare and laugh at the scene before them. I didn't care.

"Nu-uh," I stubbornly jutted out my lower lip and pouted. "There is no way - and I repeat NO WAY, that I am going in that pink-filled store with the bras, and the thongs." I spat out 'pink' as if it were a vile word.

"Oh honey, stop being so mean to your girlfriend there," an elderly grandma chattered.

"Compromise always works!!" she winked at me.

"Though if you'd like to shop with me, I'd eat you up, you piece of hunk," she went on, looking thoughtfully at me. It was evident that her false teeth were all too big for her jaws.

I shivered, mumbled a quiet, "no, thank you," and practically ran over to Rosalie.

"C'mon, you piece of hunk!" Rosalie teased, dragging a still reluctant me to the place in question.

A blush formed, and I muttered a quick, "shut up..."

I looked back at the elder and shuddered. I quickly turned around again, but not before catching the wink and kiss she blew to me.

After looking through many objects in both pink and hot pink, Rosalie and Alice shoved me into a fitting room with a huge pile of panties and bras.

"Here! Try this on too!!" Alice tossed another object (pink, of course) into my hands - something soft and jelly-like. It took a while for my brain to take in the concept of what it was.

"A GEL BRA??" I shrieked out. "I AM SOOOOOO NOT - AND I REPEAT NOT, TRYING THIS ON, LET ALONE BUYING THIS!! I MEAN LOOK AT THIS THING!!"

"Aww, c'mon..." Alice pleaded.

Always the peace-worker between Alice and me, Rosalie allowed,"Alright, Bella. If you let us buy this for you, you get an hour of Hot Topic time without our complaint."

I weighed the pros and cons. Hmmmm... An hour at Hot Topic WITHOUT COMPLAINTS from both Rosalie and Alice...

"Alright." I grudgingly replied.

After changing from bra to bra as fast as I could, Alice and Rosalie paid for the stuff. I practically ran to Hot Topic with renewed energy.

Yes!! No more pink!! I can finally breath now!! No more gel bras and stringy thongs!! I thought gleefully.

I literally pounced on the studded belts, quickly moving on to the mounds of black clothes awaiting my harsh critique.

I was relieved that, true to their word, Alice and Rosalie did not open their mouths once during my charade. They did, however, show their disapproval through their more-than-obvious frowns.

After precisely an hour - and not a minute after (Rosalie meticulously checked her phone), Alice and Rosalie dragged me away.

"That was toooooo short!!" I shouted out while they took me away. Alice shook her head in disdain.

Rosalie sighed, "If only you had this much enthusiasm with other stores..."

And then, as an after-thought, she smirked and added, "...You piece of hunk."

She and Alice cracked up at that.

I blushed a deep red again and repeated what seemed to be becoming my motto, "Shut up."

there, chappie two!! srry it's shorter...and there's no edward...REVIEW PLEEEEEEZ!! THANX!!
