Chapter 24
BPOV
"Edward's sister?" I gasped. I was shocked that she would come like this, unexpectedly, and be so willingly introduced to me.
"Yep!" She exclaimed, eying my jeans. "Like the jeans by the way."
"Thanks," I mumbled, not sure if she even heard me.
But she did-and replied, "Your welcome! You should totally buy them!"
Rosalie nodded in agreement. "I told her she looked hot in them."
"You really think so?"
"Yep." They said in unison.
So I decided, along with them, that they jeans were hot and I went checked the price tag.
"Seventy bucks!" I cried out, shoving the price tag in Rosalie and Alice's face.
"Well, aren't they worth it?" Rosalie laughed.
"Rose, I don't have that kind of money." I said, sadly.
Her face turned serious. "I can spare twenty bucks," She said.
"I'll throw in ten!" Alice yelped.
"Aw. You guys don't have to do that." I said, even though half of me just wanted to accept the money and buy the jeans with it.
"No really!" Rose continued. "There's just one condition."
"What?" I asked her, now curious.
"I get to wear them for Eddy!" She squealed. Alice punched her in the arm playfully and grinned.
"I guess I have no choice then," I muttered, as Rosalie and Alice digged through their purses in search of their money.
Alice pulled out a ten and handed it over to me. "Thanks." I said shyly, and she smiled. "No biggie."
Rose pulled out a twenty seconds later and handed it over too."Thanks," I repeated.
"You guys are so nice." I said. "You really didn't have to."
"We know," Alice chirped. "But what are friends for, right?"
I smiled. I couldn't help wondering though, how Alice and I could be friends after knowing each other for about fifteen minutes. Even being friends with Rose after a week of knowing each other seemed a stretch.
I paid for the pants and we walked out of the store and out of the mall.
"So," Alice started. "I heard you guys already ate, but I'm starving."
She laughed.
"We could swing by Hardy's or something," Rosalie laughed along.
But Alice evidently liked this idea. "Fine with me!" She said.
So we got into the car and drove down the road to Hardy's. Alice got a hamburger and Pepsi with curly fries, which Rose and I stole from. Then Alice's phone rang.
She looked on the front to see who it was.
"Jasper," She whispered, flipping it open.
"Hey baby," She said into the phone. I was confused about who Jasper was so I turned to Rosalie and mouthed, 'Who is Jasper?' She smiled as Alice continued chatting to the side and mouthed back, 'Alice's Husband.'
If I had listened for a few more minutes, I would have eventually caught onto this. The way Alice talked to Jasper; you could tell she really loved him. She would always listen to him before she spoke, and kept on calling him cute pet names like baby and sweetheart.
When she was done, she put the cell phone back into her pocket and announced,
"Jasper and Edward want to meet Rose and me," She said, throwing a glance at me.
"But they said Bella could come along. At least-Jasper did. But I'm sure Edward will be too. I mean, why wouldn't he be?" She kind of looked at me strange then, like she knew something that she thought she could hold against me, something very secretive.
"It's fine, if the four of you just want to hang out, I can go home," I said, not wanting to intrude, but even more, not wanting to see Edward.
"Don't be silly," Rose replied. "You're always welcome to join us."
She smiled and turned back to Alice. "So where are we meeting them anyways?" She wondered aloud.
"They said there was this great new dance place downtown that we should check out. They're having cheap dance lessons for the next three days, so Jasper called in and signed us up."
"Okay," Rose said excitedly. "Sounds like fun!"
"Are you going to come Bella?" Alice asked.
"Yeah, sure." I mumbled out the words.
The only thing I couldn't help wondering was who I was going to dance with.
AN: I know, short, but now that it's SPRING BREAK, I will be hopefully writing longer chapters. I just haven't had much time lately.
SO REVIEW ON WHAT YOU THINK MIGHT HAPPEN!
