Chapter 7—Snapped Her Twig

A week has passed since I slept over at the Cullen's house. I still don't talk to Edward much which is really disappointing but at least he hasn't ever gotten up and left if we start making fun of Lauren. Yet.

Good news is we have won three more games since then. It's funny how different teams react to me. One of them decided they would pitch it five miles an hour to me the for the first pitch. Bad idea on their part. Very bad idea. Oh well, too bad for them.

Baseball practice just ended and I am putting all my stuff in my bag while talking to Rosalie and Alice. "I have so much homework," Alice whined.

"You just had two and a half hours to do it. What were you doing this whole time?" I asked. Normally they do their homework while we all practice.

"Jasper looked really cute today, how was I supposed to focus?" she said innocently. I just shook my head at her. She says that everyday.

"Bella?" a voice said from behind me. I turned around to see Tyler Crowley heading this way.

"What's up Tyler?" I asked.

"Um, I was wondering if you wanted to go to the Spring Fling with me?" he asked nervously. My mouth gaped open. He is so annoying. Why the frick would anyone want to take me? I don't even want to go!

Alice noticed I wasn't about to answer-or say yes at least-so she said, "She would love to." Tyler smiled and nodded before turning away.

"We'll talk more later," he called over his shoulder.

I turned to Alice in fury. I do not want to go the dance! "Alice! Why did you do that?!" I asked angrily.

"Your going to the dance and you need a date. Now you have one," she said simply.

"I hate you Alice," I muttered.

"You know that's not true," she said confidently. I sighed angrily and took my bat back out of my bag.

"What are you doing Bella?" Rosalie asked as I walked back onto the empty field.

"I'm going to beat the crap out of the ball instead of Alice," I said throught my teeth. I do not want to go to the dance!

"What's Bella so pissed about?" Emmett asked.

"We told Tyler she would go to the dance with him and now she's all mad," Alice said.

"Hey, don't drag me into this. You were the one who answered for her," Rosalie defended. I threw the ball in the air and pulled my bat back before crushing the ball. It smacked into the fence and we heard a huge crack. What the fuck was that?

I dropped my bat and ran over to the fence. I picked up the ball and looked at the spot where I hit the fence. Holy shit, I broke the fence!

"What are you looking at Bella?" Emmett said as he, Jasper, Edward, Rosalie, and Alice came to stand beside me. I pointed to the huge crack in the fence, you could look throught it and see the little woods on the other side. "Damn Bella."

"The ball did that?" Alice asked as she touched the crack.

"I think so," I said as I walked away.

"Are you still mad at me?" Alice asked catching up to me.

"Yep," I said simply.

"Oh come on Bella, it won't be that bad," Rosalie said.

"Oh yes it will," I said. I was sure about that.

"No it won't, you can hang out with us the whole time," Rosalie reassured me.

"You know what? I will go," I said trying to look thoughtful.

"You will?" Alice squealed.

"Yeah, and I'm going to wear jeans and my baseball jersey," I said with a smirk on my face. Alice and Rosalie both gasped and the guys chuckled.

"You wouldn't," Alice said in a deadly voice.

"Woudn't I?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.

"You wouldn't do that to me. Don't you want to wear that gorgeous icy blue dress? That looked so good on you!" Alice said. I frowned slightly. Yes I wanted to wear that dress, but not for Tyler. He is so annoying!

"Don't believe me? You'll see…" I said smirking. Alice glared at me but I didn't care. She's making me go to the dance with Tyler. Ugh!

THREE WEEKS LATER!!!

"We won! We won!" Emmett yelled loudly as the crowd cheered. Our whole team was in the middle of the field jumping up and down. We won and now we're going to state championships!!! AH! I was crushed into several hugs as the crowd ran onto the field with us.

I ran up to meet Charlie and gave him a big hug. "We're going to state!" I yelled.

"I'll have to take the whole day off on your game," Charlie said with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Why? The game is just in the morning, don't you have afternoon shift on that day?" I asked, completely confused.

"Well, I'm going to want to celebrate when you guys win," he said like it was completely obvious.

I smiled. "Good, because I wouldn't want you to miss the party," I said beaming at him.

"Ah! Bella, you won!" Alice yelled crushing me into a hug the same time as Rose. She quickly pulled back and her face scrunched up. "Ew. You're so dirty," she said.

I grinned evily and took a step toward her. Her eyes widened and she stepped back. "Come on Alice, a little mud won't hurt you," I said mockingly.

"Not me, but my poor Juicy shirt would have a heart attack," she said she said taking another step back.

"Come on Alice," I said grinning. I kept stepping forward but she kept backing up. I caught Emmett's eye over her head and he grinned evilly. I looked back at Alice and my grinned widened. I darted towards her and she screamed, turned around, and ran smack into Emmett who picked her up and crushed her to his equally dirty body.

I laughed as Alice yelled at Emmett and he boomed with laughter. He put her down and the front of her shirt was covered in mud. She glared at me. "This is all your fault," she accused.

"I didn't tell you to run into Emmett," I said holding my hands up in surrender. I did not like the look she was giving me.

"But you didn't warn me either," she said with a wicked grin on her face. "I will get you Miss Swan, and your little bat too," she said before cackling evilly-which quickly turned into giggles.

She gave a look to Rose and they both walked away whispering to each other. I looked at Emmett with an eyebrow raised. "I think she snapped her twig," I said.

He chuckled. "Probably. But I would watch my back if I were you," he said grinning and yelling, "We won!" again. Oh geez. I'm sensing a storm coming in the form an evil pixie.
