A/N: Okay, sorry for the long wait. Madi and I have been busy. I had finals a week ago, and Madi's having them now... so be patient. I may not get to update that fast. Hopefully, I will get to writing the next chapter tomorrow.

To make up for it taking so long, I wrote a really long chapter for you guys. :)

BTW, I was just wondering why there's so many more people on the story alert than the people reviewing? I want to hear your input, guys! Whether it's good or bad!

Disclaimer: I'm too lazy to come up with anything good right now. So yeah, I'll just tell you once again that I'm not Stephenie Meyer. These are not my characters.

Chapter 9
BPOV

I groaned at the thought of what Alice was sure to be planning. She only had two hours, at the most, to fit everything in.

Alice turned to face me, and grinned mischievously.

"Bella, if you don't mind me asking, what's so bad about a spa at home?" Rosalie asked.

Alice played along, though she knew the answer. "Yes, Bella, what's wrong with it?"

I thought about my answer carefully before saying, "I hate being dolled up and fussed over."

Alice pouted.

"What's the point?" I asked. "I've got no one to impress."

Rosalie and Alice both gasped.

"What?" I asked them.

"Nothing," they both muttered.

"Seriously, what was with the gasp?"

"I'm not sure why she gasped, but I was thinking you'd like to impress a certain someone," Rosalie said.

Alice nodded. "That someone being Edward, of course."

I knew what they meant, but I decided to play around with them a bit.

I pouted. "Do I need to impress him? Am I not good enough as me?"

"Bella! That's not what we mean!" Rosalie yelled.

"Yeah!" Alice added. "He still liked you this morning, even with your bed head!"

I blushed, realizing I hadn't brushed my hair or teeth yet this morning.

Rosalie elbowed Alice, who turned to look at her.

"You can't say anything," Alice quipped. "You've got it too!"

I laughed. "Don't worry, Rose. You make it work."

She stuck her tongue out at me. I grinned back.

"So you're over your silly fear then, I take it. I mean after last night there's no reason for it," Alice said to me.

"Well," I took a deep breath. "Not entirely, but I know you guys were right all along."

They both stared at me, smiling.

"Alright, enough staring; we have a lot to do!" I said. Alice looked puzzled. "I can tell just by the way you were grinning earlier that you have lots in mind for today."

"You know me too well," she replied.

"So what's first on the to-do list, Alice?" Rosalie asked.

"We'll pull our hair back first, and then make the face masks," Alice said. "Then we'll paint each other's nails and toenails, while our face masks are on."

"That's not all, is it?" I asked cautiously.

"Nope!" She grinned her mischievous grin again.

"What else is there to do?" Rosalie asked.

"Once we wash off the face masks, we can do make up. Then-"

I cut her off mid-sentence. "Wouldn't that defy the purpose of the face mask though?"

She thought for a second. "No, we have nice skin already. The masks are just for the fun of it."

I sighed.

"Anyways, then we'll get dressed and do our hair for real."

I groaned again, getting myself a slap in the arm from Alice.

"Oh come on, Bella! It'll be fun!" Rosalie said.

"That's what you think," I muttered under my breath.

Rosalie offered to French braid my hair and Alice offered to braid Rosalie's. Alice didn't need to do anything, since hers was short. She just stuck a headband. I sat on the floor with Rosalie behind me, and Alice behind her.

When they were both done braiding, Alice went into her room. She came back with the recipes she had printed out a while ago for homemade face masks. She had several different ones. She said they were each for a certain skin type. We decided to all use the same one, so we wouldn't have a lot of bowls to clean up. While Rosalie and Alice made the masks, I cut up some cucumbers so we could put them on our eyes. I never understood the purpose of that, but Alice told me to do it, and I wasn't about to argue with her.

Alice carried the bowl of goop into the bathroom. I looked out the windows as we followed her.

"GUYS! LOOK!" I screamed, practically making Alice drop the bowl.

"What Bella!?" Rosalie asked.

I pointed out the window. "It's snowing!"

Alice set the bowl down and ran to the window. It was snowing really hard, everything was white already.

"I hope this lasts," Alice said.

"Me too," I said.

"Me three," Rosalie added.

"Well, come on. We've got work to do!" Alice said, walking back to the bathroom.

We put the mask on our faces in front of the mirror. Rosalie and I went into the family room, and sat around the coffee table. Alice went back into her room, and brought out a massive box full of nail polish. She also had Q-tips, nail clippers, nail files, cotton balls, and nail polish remover. She opened the box and started putting out different colors on the table.

"Pick a color!" She said brightly.

Rosalie looked through all the colors, before deciding on a bright pink for her nails, and a contrasting pink for her toes. Alice picked light green for her nails, and a dark green for
her toes. I picked a deep blue color for both.

So, what was last night like for you guys?" I asked them, while painting Alice's nails.

They both sighed.

"Mine was... amazing," Rosalie said first.

"What made it so amazing?" Alice teased.

"Emmett," she sighed.

"Well, duh! We figured that much," I said.

"He kissed me."

I gasped. "Spill! We want the details."

"Well, I walked in on him when he was changing, and I guess I was sort of gawking. Then he asked if I was enjoying the view. I told him I could leave, but he didn't let me. Then
he asked why I was in his room, and I think I said something about being yours being occupied. I told him you guys weren't going to be alone tonight, and he asked if I wanted to stay with him in his room. Somehow we ended up on the bed, kissing."

I turned to Alice. "Somehow, I think we're missing something."

Alice nodded. "So you guys just made out randomly?"

Rosalie blushed.

"Only kidding, Rose. We don't care about how. We're just glad to see he's over that brat."

I nodded. "He was too good for Rebecca."

"I hate her already, and I don't even know her!" Rosalie said.

Alice and I stared at her, open-mouthed.

"What?"

"He told you about her?"

She nodded. "Before the movie."

"Did he tell you the whole story?" Alice asked.

"I don't know. I think so."

We were even more shocked.

"Wow. He hasn't even told us the whole story," I said.

"He must really like you, Rosalie," Alice said.

Rosalie blushed again. "I like him a lot, too."

"What about your night, Alice?" I asked.

Alice told us about a phone call from some girl named Alex, and her overreacting to it. She also told us about her kiss with Jasper.

"And he told me he loved me," she said quietly.

"He did?" Rosalie asked. "Wow. You've only known each other for a few days!"

Alice nodded. "I know..."

"Well, what did you say?" I asked.

"I said I loved him too, obviously," she replied.

"And do you?" Rosalie asked, sounding a little doubtful.

"Yes," her eyes sparkled as she said this. "I really think I do. After last night, I was sure of it. He's everything I could ever want, and more. When he said it, I knew it was true. Besides, even if I didn't what was I supposed to do? Just keep my mouth shut and be all rude and reject him? No. I don't think so! But, I really do love him. More than you could know." She paused for a second before saying, "So, Bella... what about you?"

I should have seen this coming. After all, I was the one who got us on this topic. "Honestly?" They nodded, encouraging me to tell them. "I went back into my room after talking to you, he wrapped his arms around me, and we went to sleep."

"That can't be all. I can tell by your eyes. There's more you're not telling us."

"And you say I know you too well," I said. "Fine. He said 'goodnight, love' and kissed my forehead. But, that's not as big as yours!"

"Yes it is! It may not be lip to lip kissing but still. And he called you 'love'!"

I didn't say anything, as I had no idea what to say to that. We finished painting our nails and toes. I went and got the cucumbers, and we placed them over our eyes. I leaned my head back on the couch. We just sat like that, relaxing.

When I heard the door open, I took the cucumbers off my eyes. The guys walked in the door, shaking the snow out of their hair. They stopped dead in their tracks when they saw
us. Emmett was the first to laugh. His laughter caused the others to start.

What's with the... the... green stuff?" He was having a hard time talking through his laughter.

"Shut up, Emmett. It's for beautification purposes. You don't want us to be ugly, do you?" Alice said.

That just caused them all to laugh more.

Alice went to the bowl, still in the bathroom. She came back with a handful of face mask, and then she wiped it on Emmett's face. He was too shocked to even do anything. Him, me, and Rosalie all sat there open mouthed. Edward and Jasper were laughing so hard they had tears streaming down their faces.

"What are you two laughing at?" Alice asked them.

They both pointed to Emmett.

"You think that's funny?"

They just nodded. She walked over to them. Rosalie and I sat, watching Alice wipe it on their faces too. Now the three of them stood there with the same expression on their faces. Alice wasn't done though. She went and got the rest of the cucumber and handed them each two slices.

"There. Now put those on your eyes, and your skin will look great in no time!" She said cheerily.

Rosalie and I started laughing, and Alice joined in.

Emmett started to walk toward Alice. She gulped, not knowing what would happen next, and moved to stand behind the couch. Emmett didn't follow her though. He went to the couch, sat in Alice's spot and put the cucumbers on his eyes. As if that didn't make us laugh harder, the look on Alice's face would have done it. She was shocked beyond belief, her mouth hanging open.

"Um... okay then. I think I'm going to... wash this off," Edward said, backing away toward the bathroom.

"Me too," Jasper was following him.

We all turned to look at Emmett, who was now laughing hysterically.

"Don't worry, I'm coming too. This stuff is burning my face!"

Alice, Rosalie, and I just looked at each other, not quite knowing what to do. Alice shrugged and we went back to sitting on the couch, with our face masks still on.

A/N: I have no clue what the next chapter will be. Well, I guess I have an idea... sort of. Anyways, reviews are welcome as always.
