The Cullen Car Curse – Chapter 6

BPOV

I stood frozen on the cobblestone street. The narrow road was surrounded by tall buildings, ominous in the gloomy afternoon light. I felt claustrophobic, which was strange since I didn't need to breathe. But I was penned in with no escape. To my left a powerful creature growled. In answer, the monster on my right emitted a high-pitched shriek. They barreled towards each other, indifferent to my safety. What was I doing here?

Oh yeah, shoe shopping… and car shopping.

Rosalie and Alice each turned their car to the side, missing me by millimeters. We had been out shopping in Milan when they had disappeared down this alley. Once I followed them, I realized they wanted to show me the cars they had picked out by playing chicken with me.

"Very funny," I said rolling my eyes at my sisters who giggled as they exited the cars. Rosalie had picked a cherry Lamborghini Murciélago. Alice had brought a bright white Maserati GranTurismo wih blood red interior. Both cars were beautiful and intimidating, rather like the Cullens themselves. I still had a hard time seeing myself as one of them, but as I caught my reflection in the glossy clearcoat of the GranTurismo and smiled, I knew I was. I took turns racing down the narrow streets in each car, loving the exhilarating feeling of speed.

As the girls and I walked back to the hotel later that night, loaded down with shopping bags, I knew there was a big decision ahead. But I had saved the best for last. Edward got to show me his choice tomorrow.


A/N: Yeah, I know it's really really short, but I have to get out another chapter tonight, so that hopefully you will all vote on the poll, and I can get out my last chapter before tomorrow afternoon when everyone will be lining up at their bookstore to buy Breaking Dawn.
