AND PLEASE REVIEW!!!

By the time that Jasper had come back, I was asleep. I know this because he had left a note on my pillow saying

"Dear my loveliest, Alice

I came back here and found you fast asleep. I waited for a few hours and then decided to go and hunt. You know.

I'll pick you up at your house in the morning at 10:00 pm.

Love, Jasper,"

I looked at the clock. It was 8:07, so I had about 2 hours. I first went to have a shower. I procrastinated as much as possible, so I could see Jasper quicker. After that I brushed my hair and placed it into its normal, spiky position. Then I slowly went downstairs where Charlie had left yet another note saying that he was fishing with Harry and that he wanted me to cook dinner. I had told him that I was just staying at our house for the day, so I hope nothing would happen that would cause him to come back here.

So I ate my breakfast, Lucky Charms, and sat on the couch and stared at the blank TV. It was 9:23 now, so I still had a while to go. I decided that I would turn it on and watch some news.

"Mondays Weather will bring unexpected sun for Forks," said the weather presenter. Sun, wow, I thought, but I changed the channel because I was bored.

"In Port Angeles, mysterious killings have been going on. Yet, no one knows anything and the Police can't find any evidence. Who ever is doing this is trained and professional. My advice is to stick clear of Port Angeles until Police have solved this mystery," well this was no good. Just horrible.

Jasper showed up 10 minutes early.
"I see Charlie isn't here," he said, and then looked up at me and smiled.

"No, he isn't," and I returned the gesture.

"Looking forward to meeting the family today, Alice?" he asked me, and he smiled again. It took me a while to find my tongue.

"Yes! It should be great!" I said, and then he laughed at me. "What's so funny?" I asked him.

"You looking forward o meeting a family of Vampire," he said, and then smiled…. Again.

"Well, yes, it should be a good experience," I said, and smiled back up to him.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" he said. And so we walked out of the house and into the black Mercedes.

"Whose car is this?"

"Carlisle," he replied. "Edward went to the shops in his little Volvo, so we couldn't use that," he said.

"The shops? Why?"

"To get you something to eat at our house. of course," he said.

"But I just ate," I said.

"I asked them not to bother, but they insisted on it," he said, "They want to be welcoming," he added.

"Well, they are doing a good job of it," I said. Then when we hit the highway, Jasper sped up.

"Jasper, slow down!" I said, "You're going to kill me!" I said.

"No, I won't! What the thought!" he said, jokingly.

"But it's so fast!"

"It's alright, Alice. We're fine," he said.

"OK," I agreed.

So the rest of the trip was full of silence. I had wanted to talk more, but I didn't know what to talk about.

As we arrived at the house, I saw how wonderful and large it was. The trees around the place looked nice. I could only imagine it in autumn. The sound from the creek running by was lovely.

"It's so…" I struggled to find the word. "Big!" I ended up saying.

"Yeah, its home," he replied, and smiled

Of course, this place could do with a redecoration. It just needed a new touch. But new touch or not, it was magnificent. The most beautiful house I had seen in my life.

"Wow," was all I could say. It really was something.

Jasper led me up the porch steps, holding my hand.

"Scared?" he asked.

"Maybe," I said, and smiled up at him.

"Don't worry, I'm probably the most dangerous of the family. You have nothing to worry about," he said, and smiled back.

"Why you?" I asked. "And that's not why I'm scared," I added.

"Why are you scared?" he asked, avoiding my earlier question.

"I'm afraid they won't like me. You know, Rose seems like she hates me," I said. And then Jasper laughed.

"She doesn't hate you, Alice," he started, then laughed again, "She's jealous of you," he said, but then his face turned serious.

"But…." I struggled to find the words, "Jealous…. Me?"

"I'll explain later," he said, "They're waiting for us," he said, then gestured to the door. He opened it and I saw inside the magnificent house.

It was quite disappointing really. It was slightly dull. From the look of it on the outside, it looked like the inside would be perfect. But no. It still looked marvellous, but just like the outside, it was missing that touch. The beautiful polished wooden floors were beautiful, and so were the pictures on the walls. The grand piano made the large room complete. It was like the whole ground floor was just one large room. I saw the stair case, and it led up to 3 floors. Over all, it was a wonderful house.

"It's so…. Nice," I said. Then Jasper nodded. Suddenly, Bella was in front of me, and Edward was standing on the top of the stairs.

"Hey Alice!" she said, cheerfully. "How are you?" she asked, and then gave me a hug. She then backed away quickly.

"I'm great, Bella! How are you?" I asked her, her eyes were black, and from what I could see, so were Edward's.

"Great," said Bella.

"OK, now Alice," said Jasper, he seemed a bit nervous, "Let's go see my parents," he suggested.

"Alright," I said. And followed him to the kitchen upstairs where Emmett, Esme and Carlisle were cooking for me.

"Hey Alice," said Esme, "We're baking you a cake, she said. "Chocolate surprise," she said, like she was a chief.

"Thank you, very much. All of you. But you really didn't need to," I said, and blushed. I smiled.

"Oh, don't worry, we enjoyed making a cake for you!" said Esme. Then Carlisle came through the door.

"Hey Alice," he said. He really was a gorgeous doctor.

"Hello," I said, and smiled.

"I'm Carlisle," he said, and put his hand out. I shook it. It was cold, just like the rest of theirs.

I looked around the kitchen. Even though they didn't use it, it looked like it was looked after very well. I just thought that it needed a touch of something. I don't know, maybe… a feature wall.

"You know, I agree, Alice," said Edward, who was suddenly beside me. "This room does need a feature wall," he said, answering my thought, which I thought was a bit spooky.

"Yes, I agree," said Esme, "This house really could do with a make over," she added. Carlisle nodded.

"Great idea," said Jasper. And he smiled at me.

"Yeah, this house could do with something else," said Emmett.

"Then how about we start today!" said Esme, "It would be fun!" she said.

"And Alice has some great ideas, Esme," said Edward, who smiled up at me. It was this breathtaking crooked smile. No wonder Bella fell in love with him. He was perfect for her. I smiled back.

"You do, Alice? I've been meaning to redecorate this place for ages! But all my ideas get rejected by this lot!" and she pointed at her family, and they laughed.

"Yeah, I have a few ideas," I said.

"Share them with us!" said Esme.

"Well, to match the cream walls in this room, maybe we could have a dark green feature wall right on that wall," Esme nodded, "Maybe some flowers around the place, a new paint job," I suggested.

"You know, Alice, that's a great idea," said Esme, "Oh! And outside we should do some more gardening. That would wonderful!" said Esme, clapping her hands together with excitement. It really looked as if she needed some female encouragement around here. "Let's start now!" she said.

"Yay!" I said, and danced closer to Esme. "But, how shall we start?" I asked.

"Well, I'll send Carlisle down to get some things, like the paint, and maybe later we can go get flowers," she suggested.

"Sounds great!" I said, excitedly.

It only took Carlisle 10 minutes to get the supplies here and in the meanwhile, I had some of the cake. It really was the best chocolate cake I had ever eaten. When he did come back, I saw them all get to work. In 1 minute, the feature wall was painted, all but one square.

"Here, Alice," said Jasper, "Here's your square," he said and smiled. I laughed. It was this 1 metre squared. So I picked up the paint brush and painted in my bit of the house. This took about 5 minutes and compared to their painting, mine looked really bad.

"Oh, I'm so sorry!" I said. I was never really good at art.

"Oh don't be sorry!" said Esme, "It looks great!" she said.

We moved outside, Carlisle, Esme, Jasper and I. The rest were inside, doing what they wanted to do. Carlisle re-painted the whole house a clear shade of white. It matched his skin tone perfectly. Esme prepared the Garden bed, and Jasper and I just sat here and watched them. They were moving very fast, and I could hardly see what they were doing. I wished I was one of them. Suddenly, I saw Edward's face staring at me from the top window. Oops! He had heard me.

Um… Hi Edward,I thought.

He shook his head and smiled at me.

You see, I want to be with Jasper for ever, I thought again.

He just nodded back and then walked away.
By the time we had finished our 'conversation', the house was painted perfectly. Jasper and left for 1 minute to polish the windows, and the Garden was looking perfect. The soil was so rich too, plants would grow well here.

So then, Carlisle set off for plants. This was more farther away, and would take more time. So Jasper showed me his room.

We walked up the winding stares and up to the 3rd floor. This floor looked homier. On the second door to the left, Jasper led me into the room. It was painted a dark sea blue. It had many books and movies piled up extremely neatly. I looked closer and saw that everything there was in alphabetical order.

"You must have a lot of time on your hands," I said, gesturing to the bookshelf.

"What else is there to do?" he asked, rhetorically. "We have so much time on our hands," he added.

"How long have you been… you know… a vampire?" I asked, slowly.

"A while, Alice, a long time," he said.

"Where did you come from?" I asked.

"The south side. Now let me tell you Alice, I was raised as a vampire differently to what my family were. We fed on humans, Alice. One of the reasons why it is so hard for me to be with you," he said.

"One of?" I asked.

"Well, you know how I said I could change people's emotions?" he asked.

"Yeah," I said

"Well, when I also feel the emotions around me. So when one is angry, I feel there anger and replace it with calm. Or when one is sad, I can replace it with calmness, and I end up being sad," he said.

"Are you happy now?" I asked him.

"Very. Because I am with you, and you are a joy to the world, Alice. You mean everything to me,"

"Oh Jasper," I said, and I gave him a hug. Then he leaned forward and kissed me. His cold lips against my warm ones. Just then, Jasper leaned back.

"Carlisles back now. Let's go down stairs," he said. And so I got up. "Would you like a ride down?" he added.

"Sure," I said, unsurely. So he put me on his back, and ran. It was like nothing I've ever felt. The wind against my face, and the walls flying past me. Suddenly, after about 3 seconds, we were outside the house.

"Wow!" was all I could say as he lifted me back down.

"You enjoyed that?" he asked.

"It was the best thing ever!" I said, and gave him a big hug. Then I looked down and most of the flowers were already in the ground. They looked beautiful. They must have spent so much money today.

"Hey Alice!" said Esme. "I have left some more flowers inside for you to put up around the house," said Esme.

"Yay!" I said, and Jasper held my hand and we walked inside the big house. On the ground were some beautiful roses and other arrangements. These must have been even more money than the ones outside were. They looked so beautiful. And the smell!

"Well, lets get started then," said Jasper, and he handed me a rose.

"Ouch," I said, as the rose's thorn pricked me.

OOOH! Cliff hanger!!!

Keep in tune for the next chapter of… ALICE AND BELLA SWAP!
