"Alice, I don't have anything to wear," I shouted into the phone. All I had is one pieces that my mother bought me when I was like 15.
"Don't worry about it Bella I'm on my way now."
"Thanks Ali, I'll see you soon," I said as I hung up the phone. I collapsed on my bed and sighed with relief. I was really nervous about my date with Edward tonight. I mean I have been on a date with him before but tonight I was going to see him in only swim trunks, it was an intimidating thought. I stood up just as the doorbell rang; I jogged down the stairs as fast as I could without tripping.
"Hey Ali," I said as I opened the door.
"Hey Bells, I brought over some bikini's and I'm going to give you a makeover, "she squealed as she shoved her way past me and started up the stairs. Oh god what have I gotten myself into.
"Ok so go take a fast shower and make sure you shave," she said as he shoved me into the bathroom. I took a fast shower and made sure to not cut myself while shaving. Once I was done, she ushered me back into my bedroom and started to blow dry my hair. After it was dry she curled it and pinned half of it up, a few stray curls hung around my face.
"Ok so your hair looks perfect now I'm going to start on your make-up."
"Alice we are going swimming, I do not need make-up," I stated.
"Of course you do, don't you want to look perfect for Edward," she exclaimed with a pout.
I couldn't help it; she was making a puppy dog face, "Ok fine Alice just don't go overboard.
She put eyeliner right above my bottom lashes and put silver eye shadow on my lids. She then coated my upper lashes with black mascara; to top it off she added a coat of clear glass to my lips.
"Ok so hair and make-up are done. It's time to find you a bathing suit and an outfit." She rummaged through the bag she brought. She pulled out a white bikini, a dark blue bikini and a red and white stripped bikini.
"Ok try all these on and tell me which one you like the best," she said as she thrust the bathing suits in my hand and directed me to my bathroom. I tried the red and white striped one first; let's just say that I might as well go naked. I tried the white one next, it was beautiful and I would definitely ask Alice if I could wear it one day. The last one I tried on was the sapphire dark blue bikini. It fit like a glove and it looked beautiful against my pale skin. I walked out of the bathroom with my choice.
"I thought you would pick that one," Alice smiled, "Ok well let's find you a cover up to wear over it." She rummaged through her bag again and pulled out a white cotton dress. It was beautiful with the flair sleeves and the silver beading on the top; Edward wasn't going to know what hit him.
"Ali it's beautiful," I exclaimed as I held the dress.
"I know, now go put it on. We still have to paint your nails."
I slipped the dress over my head, careful not to mess up my hair. The top made my cleavage look amazing and the bottom flowed and stopped an inch above my knees. Alice then handed me a pair of silver strap on sandals.
"Don't put those on yet, I still need to pain your nails." She grabbed my hand and sat me down on the bed. She painted my finger and toe nails silver to match the beading and the shoes. As the paint dried she told me about her date with Jasper the previous night.
"He was so amazing. Everyone went out to a movie and Jasper set up a picnic in front of the fire place. We talked for 2 hours about nothing at all, it was nice. We also talked about the future and about college; we decided to both apply to NYU together. He wants to be a history major and I want to major in fashion." It was sweet how in love both Jasper and Alice were, they make an amazing couple.
"Ok so I think you nails are dry. Put the shoes on and Edward should be here in 5 minutes."
"Thanks for helping me Ali. I actually had a lot of fun," I smiled at her.
Her face lit up," This makes me so happy Bella! Now I can give you makeovers all the time," she jumped up and down. Oh god what have I gotten myself into. She bounced out of the room and into her Porsche. After waving goodbye she drove away. 5 minutes later Edward showed up at my door. I opened it for him and waited for him to say something. He just stood there gapping at me.
"Like what you see," I teased.
"Absolutely," he said with a wink. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me against his body. I could feel every muscle in his body. He then proceeded to give me the best kiss of my life. Yep, this was going to be an amazing night.
