Edward's POV-
Finals were finally over, and the end of school dance was that night. Alice was practically bouncing out of her seat on the ride home. Bella took one glance at her best friend and then turned a sick shade of pale. I kissed her cheek and rubbed her arm. "Bella, I won't let her hurt you," I muttered.
She shivered. "I am not a life-sized Barbie doll," she muttered, biting her lip.
"Of course you're not," I replied as we pulled up into the driveway of my house.
Becca, Rosalie, and Alice jumped out of the car, pulling Bella along. The rest of us slid out and I hissed at my sister and her best friends, "Do not torture Bella, or I will make you wish you were never born."
Becca rolled her eyes and swatted my arm. "Don't worry, Eddie, we'll make sure Bells is safe, and gorgeous by the time the dance rolls around tonight."
"She's always gorgeous," I reminded them.
Becca shrugged. "She'll be runway gorgeous."
I rolled my eyes and walked away with my friends. I felt extremely sorry for Bella.
Bella's POV-
After hours and hours of torture, it was through. Becca pushed me in front of a mirror and I gasped. I actually sort of looked good enough to be going with Edward. This was a miracle, and amazing. I knew my friends could almost work miracles with fashion and looks…but this was like an episode of extreme home makeover when just when you think it's all ruined, it turns around into something extremely perfect. I giggled. Becca smiled. "You like?" she asked.
All I could do was nod.
We finished getting ready and met the boys in the car. I seriously fell into it, and then crawled over to the seat next to Edward. He wrapped an arm around me and kissed my forehead. "You look absolutely drop dead gorgeous." He wrapped his other arm around me and pulled me closer to him. "I don't think I'm going to able to let go of you- someone might steal you away."
I giggled. I had Edward's approval- and that's all I really cared about.
On the way to the dance we rocked out to pretty much every song on the radio. You could tell how excited we all were, even me. When we arrived at the school, Becca jumped out of the car, seriously, to meet her date. It was some eighth grade guy who had been crushing on her for a while. Becca didn't like him much, but he wasn't bad looking and he had a good reputation.
We walked into the gym, where people already had started dancing and hanging out. The camera was handed off to me, and then we all started separating.
Alice's POV-
Bella was snapping shots of random people. I leaned over and whispered to Rosalie. She nodded and smiled, walking up to the D.J. and speaking to him quickly. Popular from the Veronicas started playing. I giggled and started dancing. Jasper gave me a look that said no way in hell am I dancing to this Alice. I shrugged and pouted, dancing anyway. Rosalie and Becca started singing along. Becca's date started dancing along. And eventually Jasper even started dancing. I giggled.
I had to notice it; we looked better then everyone else here. Everyone's eyes seriously were attached to us. As Bella and Edward spun their way toward us, no one could even resist letting their eyes linger on us for longer then necessary.
And so the night went on. There wasn't too much drama to deal with, at least it didn't go so far that we had to go yell at someone or trick anyone into something. I even managed to catch a picture of Edward and Bella kissing. It was so cute, and so perfect that I even managed to get it.
Emmett and Rosalie were officially back together at the end of the dance. I thought it was great, and Becca did too. I could tell she was actually happy because of the way she had happy danced with Rose when she found out. Becca giggles and cheers if she's faking happy new boyfriendness, and happy dances if she's really happy. I told Rosalie that the red dress she had worn must have sealed the deal for Emmett; because had been thinking about asking her out again for almost two months. Rosalie seemed pleased with that.
After the dance, we went back to my house. We changed into more comfortable clothes and put in some movies, not that we were paying much attention. Becca was in the corner, texting her latest crush, some guy that was a friend of the date she had for the dance. Bella and Edward had their heads pressed together, talking about something, focused on one another completely. Expectedly, Rose and Emmett were making out on the couch. Jasper and I were pretending to watch the movie, but we both knew that we were thinking about one another. He had me wrapped up in a hug, a blanket over top of us. I leaned my head on his shoulder and said, "I love you."
"I love you more," He replied, kissing the top of my head.
Bella's POV-
"I actually had a good time tonight," I told Edward quietly, trying to have a private conversation when there was a room full of my friends.
"I had a great time. Bella," Edward started saying something else. My breath caught. What was he going to say…was their a but to the he had a great night? I started to panic. What if I wasn't good enough still? What if there was something that I had did wrong? What if he liked Jessica or Lauren more then me. "I'm really glad you moved here, Bella. Now that you're hear, I don't know how I lived without you."
I felt blood rush to my cheeks, warming my face, and relief washing through me at the same time. "I'm really, really glad I moved here too, Edward. I'm really glad I got to meet you…"
"I love you, Bella."
"I love you too, Edward."
Eventually we all drifted off to sleep. And some of my thoughts that I was sifting through before I drifted off were that I was just happy that he had gotten past the fact that I was just Alice's new friend, and he saw that I was good, even underneath my plain out appearance. I was just glad I was enough. And hopefully I would be enough…enough for forever.
The end! Let me know how you liked the ending. Did it suck? Did you like it? Let me know. Look out for updates to my other stories and the sequel to this!
