--------Chapter Five-------

After the Ninja Turtles ended, KT and I decided we would go out to Port Angeles to go shopping. She said that I was going to have to suffer through her shoving dresses at me and trying them on all day. She said that if I did not buy at least one piece of clothing, she would just have to take me out again and again and again until I did. I scowled and agreed. I would buy socks if I had too—they were clothing. If you haven't guessed it yet, I hate shopping for anything except books. So, she took us in my very new, very expensive, Porsche. It was a brilliant sapphire color, and I loved it. It was fast, beautiful, and all mine. I was sitting in the passenger seat, reading and changing the song on my iPod to 'Pilate's Dream' from Jesus Christ Superstar, which was blaring over the car stereo. It was KT and my thing, so whenever we saw each other, we listened to JCS.

"A most amazing man/He had that look you very rarely find/ The haunting hunted kind…" KT sang in her marvelous alto voice. I offset her with my soprano range, and we blended very well. It was one of the reasons we had become good friends. We had met, through singing. It was a very cloudy, crisp day, like always, as we drove to Port Angeles. Once there, we found a few nice dress shops and KT began shoving dresses at me. To my surprise, I found some I really liked, and actually bought them. She was shocked, and so was I. I was turning into a real…girl. I had never really been a fan of dresses, and I swore the only times I would wear dresses were weddings, and proms. That was it. KT pointed out that I had senior prom coming up anyways, and I guess she was right. So, we bought our dresses and left the store. We walked over to my dad's restaurant, got a seat, and ordered food. I was looking towards the door, and that was when I saw him come in. Edward Cullen. I looked away, towards my food, when that smooth voice filled my ears.

"Hey Alexandra—got room for one more?"

"Edward…." I said, smiling reluctantly. "Umm…sure." I said and scooted over. KT mouthed to me.

'That's the guy!'

"I know." I said out loud and Edward smiled at KT. She blushed, and he shifted uneasily in his seat. I put a hand on his shoulder, and he looked at me and that look said it all; I can handle it. I nodded and continued talking to KT.

"So, when I saw JCS at the North Shore Music Theatre, Jesus was totally the hottest guy there."

"No way. In New York, Peter was the hottest."

"Oh well. Jesus is better anyways. Go Jesus!" I mocked. KT laughed.

"I think that is against the Wiccan Rede to cheer for Jesus."

"…possibly." I answered, and we laughed. Joe, our waiter, brought us our food. Dad's linguini for KT, she had a thing for it I swear, and Chicken, Broccoli, and Ziti for me. My favorite! Edward made due with water. We talked, and Edward just sat there, observing with his amazing gold eyes. When we were about to leave, he stopped me.

"Can I drive you home?" He asked. I looked at KT. She nodded for me to go. She was probably thinking something totally different than what was really coming. I looked at Edward, and gave him a small smile.

"Sorry, Edward, but I came here with Katie, and I really don't want to let her drive my Porsche all the way home by herself." I said, turning back to KT who was rolling her eyes. I chuckled and looked back at Edward.

"I'll talk to you later, ok?" I asked, fishing out my cell phone to call Chass and tell her we were on our way home. Edward nodded and left without another word. I was about to speed dial Chass when my phone rang. I answered it, not knowing who it was. The caller ID just said unknown.

"Hello?"

"Vampires are love."

"…Heather?" I asked, walking outside and getting into my Porsche. KT looked at me with a confused look on her face. She had never met Heather. Heather was my best friend in L.A, and she was the only one who truly shared my love for the vampiric world. I had yet to mention my obsession to either Edward or Bella, so I knew that they hadn't know when they told me about the Cullen family secret. I finally had met some vampires! And yet…I couldn't tell the one person in the world that I wanted to tell; Heather.

"Hey, 'Lex. How have you been? You haven't called in five weeks." She said. I could hear her stereo blasting in the background.

"I know—I've been busy with the move and then Chass and KT came, so I had to get them settled in, and well, I've just been busy." I said, driving down the highway towards Forks at twice the legal speed limit. KT was jamming out to more Jesus Christ Superstar while I was talking to Heather.

"Well, I was just wondering when you were getting home."

"What do you mean, Heather? I live in Forks now." I said, turning onto the exit for Forks.

"I know."

"Then what—Heather, you're confusing me."

"It's not that hard to do. Just—when are you getting home?"

"Umm…in about 15 minutes?"

"Good. Bye 'Lex."

"Bye?" and we hung up. I drove home, singing out to JCS with KT and in 15 minutes, as promised, I pulled into my driveway behind my dad's Jaguar. I looked over to my porch, and saw Heather, sitting there with a book out. I shook my head and chuckled. I could not believe that all three of my best friends had flown out to come live with me in hell. I was so happy. I had people to share with in my misery.

"I cannot believe you fucking came out here Heather." I said, getting out of the car and walking up to the porch and hugging her.

"Like I would let you suffer alone in this place. I did some research on it and was like, 'I cannot let 'Lex be there all by herself. She'll kill herself or something.' And so, I came here to share in your misery."

I shook my head as KT came up behind me and smiled at Heather.

"I'm KT. KT Brown. I'm Alex's best friend."

"Oh really? That's funny, because I'm Heather McKinley, and I'm 'Lex's best friend."

Oh no, this was not good. They were both my best friends, but just in different towns. I stepped in between them, stopping anything that was going to possibly happen. Both of these girls were not afraid of confrontations.

"KT, Heather, chill. You are both my best friends. Come on, let's just get inside and get this all worked out." I said, and walked inside. They both followed me in and didn't speak another word to each other. Thank the God and Goddess for that. I was going to have one hell of a time trying to sort all this out. Where was I going to stick Heather? KT and Chass were sharing the only guest room, and the only room left was my brother's room.

"Umm…Heather? You mind taking over Danny's room while he's not here?"

"No problem. Even if he came home, I'll still kick him out. He's terrified of me, remember?"

"That's because you bit him…twice."

"He antagonized me." Heather said, justifying her actions.

"..You keep telling yourself that."

"Shut up you skank." She said as she walked up the stairs.

"That's Skank-whore to you."
