A Lost Bet
How Could You!
EPOV
I hear the girls pull up in to our drive way, laughing their heads off. Good, Bella must have had a fun time then.
"ALICE! I can't believe you!" I hear Bella scream outside. I quickly run out there to find Alice handing Bella a few more bags.
"What? You were taking a long time to pick out something for Edward! I saw a couple of these outfits and thought you'd look great in it." Bella scowls, but she brightens up when she sees me.
"Edward, make Alice take these back!"
"No can do, Bella, these were sale items. I can't take back sale items." Alice cuts in and Bella frowns. "Come on, you'll like them. Trust me."
"I can't bet against you Alice, but I swear to God, if you ever pull that on me again..."
"I know, I know." Alice waves Bella off and walks in to the house with a couple bags on each arm. Bella hands me a Gap bag and smiles.
"I got something for you." I smile back at her before I open the bag. I reach in and pull out a grey zip-up sweater. This is perfect for when I go to school.
"Thanks, love. I really like it." I give her a kiss on the lips and she smiles against mine.
"Good. Because I wasn't really sure what color you'd like. But this totally screamed you." I laugh and wrap my arms around my angel.
"So, did you have fun today?" I ask as we walk in to the house. I grab the bags from her hands and set them down by the stairs.
"Yeah. Actually, I did. Oh which reminds me. EMMETT!" Bella screams at the top of her lungs. Emmett comes running down with a goofy little grin on his face. Everyone else comes in to the living room to see what Bella is going to do. "Emmett. I want to try something, is that okay with you?"
"What do you want to do?"
"I just want to test my power. But I want to get your permission first..."
"Which power?"
"Emmett. Just say yes or no." Emmett thinks about it for a second and then smiles.
"Sure."
"Okay, just start thinking about the ABC's and then I want you to jump up and down." Emmett smiles and starts to jump up and down. Bella smiles and takes her fists and opens them so her fingers are pointing towards Emmett. He freezes in midair. Alice and Rosalie jump up and down in pure joy as the rest of us are staring at Bella in confusion.
"I knew it would work!" Alice says as she runs over to hug Bella. Rosalie is smirking.
"Great job, Bella. Now let's see you unfreeze him. Do the same thing." Bella nods and she repeats what she did and Emmett comes crashing down.
"Okay. Thanks." Bella says and Emmett scratches his head in confusion.
"Oh come on! How come I never know when I'm going to get frozen!" Emmett pouts as we all laugh. Rosalie walks over next to Emmett's side and strokes his arm.
"Aw, don't be a baby. This is actually really good. Bella just found out how to control her freezing power." Rosalie kisses Emmett's cheek and winks over at Bella.
"Wow, how did you girls think of this?" Carlisle asks as we all go to sit down on the couches.
"Well, I noticed Bella always did that thing with her hands when she was freezing someone so I figured she try it with out saying it out loud." Carlisle nods at Alice's explanation.
"Yeah, and she did the same thing to Alice when we were out." I look over at Bella, she lowers her eyes.
"Sorry, Alice. I just had to think."
"It's okay. I've already forgiven you." She smiles at Bella. "Bella, show Edward what you got."
"I already did." Bella says and smiles up at me. I smile back and Alice shakes her head.
"No, what you got."
"Alice, I don't know what you're talking about!" Bella says in frustration.
"Go check your bag... the one I gave you and put it on. Then Edward will go up and see." Bella scowls and walks off to get one of the shopping bags. She shrieks and runs in to the room.
"ALICE! What were you thinking?" Bella's face is set with anger. I wish I know what she's thinking right now. She's probably yelling at Alice in her head.
"Bella! Don't make it such a big deal. Go put it on. Trust me, you'll thank me for this later." I seep in to Alice's mind, but she blocks me. Damn.
"I don't know why you're so big on trying to do this for us. I mean, we're doing fine perfectly on our own. STOP MEDDLING!" Bella screams before charging up the stairs. I get up to follow her but Alice tells me to wait.
I wonder why Bella's so upset. What did Alice get her?
"Go up now, Edward." Alice says and I run up the stairs to our bedroom. I open the door and I stop breathing.
