AN: Review, review, review.

They're still in Seattle and Alice has a vision. It won't be a good one. She has to make a plan. But she could easily lose control, will she?

Thanks to amobutterfly25 and flamingred08 for reviewing.

To answer a question: Edward could smell if she mated with anyone but a werewolf. He would smell their distinct smell on her when he normally wouldn't so he would know that they mated. With Jacob he smells that smell on her regardless so there is no way to know.

Chapter 7
Room Service and a Plan

"Bella are you cold? Or hungry?"

"I could go for a bit of food." I said timidly

"Would you like to get out? Or room service?"

"Room service."

I did not want to try to piece myself together enough to even leave the hotel; much less go out. Maybe I could go sit in the hot tub tonight, I'm sure Alice had appropriate wear for that packed. Alice was already on the phone asking for more food than I would ever eat.

"Yes, I'd like fries, a burger…yes. Also could you bring up chocolate ice cream? Thanks."

"Bella it should be here in an hour or less, it'll take forty-five minutes."

I reached for the comforter and the other covers pulling them over me, Alice slid in beside me and grabbed me.

"Alice, thank you. Seriously, I miss him so much and you keep me sane, you are my best friend."

"That's my job!"

She was way too perky, I'm sure she must have been a cheerleader or something. Her arms soothed me and my thoughts drifted inevitably to painful memories of Edward and how I loved him.

"Alice I just want to go home…I'm home sick."

"We can leave tomorrow morning if you'd like."

"Thanks so much Alice, I just need to talk to him. I need to hold him. I miss him indescribably so. I want to hurry to him and seek forgiveness or hurry with the agonizing rejection."

Alice looked sad, she must have seen something. I guess Edward was still thinking.

"Alice, you saw something….Please just tell me"

She was hesitant and the anxiety was about to take hold of me. She didn't want to speak; she shook her head and looked at me sympathetically.

"Bella, he's leaving tomorrow night for Italy. He wants to start a new life and be away from any memory of the mate that hurt him."

I wanted to hate Jacob, but he hadn't done anything.

"Can I convince him?"

"You'll have to seduce him, catch him off guard…wait he's changed his mind. He's going to cross enemy territory. This could be bad. Very bad. He's only going to listen though. Will Edward just make up his mind already?"

"We have to get home now." I said adamantly.

"No Bella, we need to plan something. You need to weaken him."

"Okay, I'm up for anything."

Alice pondered how to do this, I'm sure it would involve some intricate plan. It would work though, Alice hardly failed.

"Once you seduce him, he will be close to you and long for you. Trust me; he will fall for you again because he loves you."

It sounded as if she was implying something, her tone was dripping with something I should figure out, and I doubted she would tell me. She began to think again. There was a knock on the door, it was room service. Alice bounded to get it, she was so irresistible, no wonder she always got her way.

"Burger, fries and ice cream for Alice?"

The boy who stood at the door looked so dazzled, Alice was eating this up.

"I..am Alice," she purred; how evil.

"That'll be…." He paused so very dumbfounded.

"Here," she slipped him a large bill, he smiled taking it that she liked him and winked.

Alice sighed once he was gone, and chuckled a bit.

"How do you know this?"

I was determined to see what she meant; she sat the tray down and replied

"Bella, I know Edward."

I was perplexed, and her tone was dripping again with implications. It was sweetly coated and peaked my curiosity with divine intensity. I began eating, the fries tasted wonderful and Alice was enamored with my eating habits. She could tell I wanted her to finish that sentiment, and she replied,

"Before Jasper was in…existence I got rather bored. This is something no one knows of, so please don't say anything."

"I won't"

I agreed in between bites of the delicious hamburger and fries. I was more curious now than even when Jacob had told me of the cold ones.

Alice curled up next to me again.

"Edward was reading, very lost in a book and I snuck up behind him and wrapped my arms around him. He had never shown interest in me and that wasn't what I was aiming at and he knew this, I was simply bored. I kissed his neck gently then bit down, this sent him into shock and he went wild. I whipped around and pounced on him. I pushed him down flat, and I was straddled on him. He pulled me in close and bit me. I kissed him, hard and smothering like and he followed, then pinning me down. He changed his mind though, no longer in shock, and got off. It could have been awkward after, but he knew it meant nothing and since then we have always been close."

I sat down my tray of food, mostly finished and Alice held me even tighter, it felt comforting to be in her cold arms. I lied down and got under the covers once again, Alice followed.

"So how do I do this?"

"First I want you to talk to him, that'll ensure that he won't leave." Alice paused, "Then I want you wait a day or so, and then find the perfect opportunity. When Edward gets bored he'll find something to engross himself in." She paused again. "We are going to buy some simple, yet classy lingerie!"

I hated the notion of buying lingerie for someone that I supposed hated me. If it could work, though, I would try it. I agreed to it and she was already holding up and outfit for me to wear out shopping that was strangely agreeable, at least for me. A simple pair of jeans that were slightly big on and had rips in them with a diagonally striped green and white tank top and a green tee-shirt to go over it.

I redressed and came out of the restroom, suddenly feeling a small lift of spirit. Alice danced to me and swept my hair back in a delicately messy ponytail that could only be pulled off when she styled it. My cheeks were still stained and my eyes didn't look happy.

"Oh, Bella." Alice said out of the deepest sympathy.

"Don't worry dear, I'll fix you up."

She went to a small bag and opened it up on one of the beds. It held several creams, powders, and brushes. She retrieved her phone from the nightstand and quickly dialed a number and held it to her ear.

"Yes, Esme, as you know there is a serious problem"

"It's pretty bad,"

Upon hearing that I wanted to cry again, to further reinforce the stains on my cheeks and the red lines in my eyes.

"How quick can you make it to Seattle?"

"Okay, sounds fine."

"Yea, we have a plan."

"No, don't worry we can wait."

She hung up and looked at me, sitting on the opposite bed.

"Bella, Esme is on her way. She loves you Bella and knows you wouldn't hurt Edward. If all else fails she can talk to him"

I hated that notion, 'if all else fails' it implied that something could fail. It was such an uncertain phrase, and I craved security.

"Okay."

"We'll just have to wait a couple of hours," she said dancing towards me, motioning me to relax and laying next to me.

I lied curled into her; her arms were wrapped around me. I craved Edward more than ever now.

"Alice how does one seduce a vampire?"

"Bella, dear, it's all about scent and exploiting a weakness," her tiny pixie head went for my neck and I was at ease. I must be crazy. She pressed into it and filled her nose with the sweet scent.
