Bella's Pov
"When do you think we'll be out of here?" Emmett asked, again.
"We don't know Emmett." Rosalie told him.
"But Rosie.." Emmett whined.
"Would you stop calling me that?" Rose snapped. "You sound like a two year old."
I sighed as the two argued. I rested my head against Edwards chest, he kissed my head lightly. Suddenly, Alice spoke up.
"Would you two shut up for a minute!" Alice shouted. Rosalie and Emmett shut their mouths instantly. We all sat in silence for a moment. It was then that we noticed the distinct sound coming from afar.
"What is that?" I asked.
Silence.
"Waves." Edward whispered.
"You know what this means?" Alice said.
"We have to follow the sound." Jasper said.
"Everyone hold hands." Edward said, grabbing my arm and bringing me up with him. I felt a tiny hand take mine.
"Alice?"
"No, its Mike. Hey Bella!" Alice said, doing her best impression of Mike Newton. I laughed at her failure.
"Everyone linked?" Jasper asked.
"Yep." We all said.
"Then lets get the hell outta here!" Emmett boomed. We all 'shh'ed him, so that we could hear the waves. We all followed the sound, our steps very careful. We had to be very careful; we didn't know where we were going, whether or not we might hit something or trip.
"Are there bats in here?" Alice whispered.
"If there is, one better not shit in my hair." Rosalie muttered. I stifled a laugh.
We walked in silence, the sound of waves becoming louder and louder. We were getting close. A little light became visible. I smiled, happy that I would now be able to see my friends.
Suddenly, my foot hit something, hard.
"Crap!" I hissed, before anyone could stop me, I found myself falling. And not on rock, but in water.
"Guys." I said, taking my hair out of my mouth. "I think we are getting closer." I told them, spitting out water.
"Smooth Bella." Emmett said. Though I couldn't see it, I was sure Rosalie had slapped the back of his head, since I heard a loud smacking sound, followed by an "ow". Edward and Alice helped me up and held my hands tighter, making sure I wouldn't fall again. The light and sound were getting closer, and soon enough, I could finally see my friends again. We sighed in relief, happy that we could finally go back to our camp site and change out of our gross clothes.
"Well, we should start swimming now." Edward said.
"Woo.." Alice sad sarcastically before jumping into the water. Everyone followed and we started swimming west, where we hoped the beach was. According to the boys, it was, since that is where they had began swimming.
"I hate this." Rosalie panted.
"You know Rose, if you take off your clothes, it wont be ask hard to swim." Emmett told her.
"Emmett?" Rosalie said, her voice slightly seductive. Emmett looked back at her, thinking maybe he'd gotten lucky.
Only he wasn't.
Rosalie splashed him.
"Shit! My eyes!" Emmett yelled. "I'm BLIND!"
"Karma's a bitch." Rosalie said as she passed him. He muttered a couple swear words under his breath before continuing. After god knows how long, we finally arrived on shore. We probably looked like a bunch of panting freaks. A woman who looked like she was on her way to a camp-site looked at us as if we each had three heads. I couldn't blame her - I would probably look at people in a strange way if I saw them fully clothed in the sea, panting like dogs,after appearing from God knows where! We all got up from the sand and made our way back to camp.
"I've never felt so gross in my life!" Rosalie announced.
"Me neither.. This is so gross." Alice said.
"Lets get some new clothes and take a shower." I told them.
"What about us?!" Emmett said. We all glared at him. "Okay, I know this might sound unbelievable, but I actually meant that in a non sexual way." He told us. We stared at him, shocked. "But if you girls want to roll that way I'm in." He added. We said nothing, and left the camp-site. Once we were in the shower, I felt every muscle in my body relax.
"You know, this can't be healthy for our hair." I said.
"How?" Rosalie asked.
"Washing your hair twice a day is bad for you hair. Your hair produces healthy oil, but the more you wash it, the more it produces, which causes your hair to look greasy." Alice explained.
"Um, yeah, what she said." I muttered. We burst out in laughter. Once we were done with our showers, we got dressed in clean dry clothes, and walked back to camp.
"Finally!" Jasper, surprisingly, groaned.
"Jeez Jazz, we were only in there for twenty minutes." Alice said.
"Exactly, you were in a nice, warm shower, while we were sitting in the cold in wet clothes." He said, standing up from the log.
"You could of joined." Alice purred.
"Now you tell us!" Emmett boomed. Alice rolled her eyes at him.
"Anyway, before someone ends up getting it on here from all the sexual tension, I'm going to take a shower." Edward said, beginning to walk towards the shower house. He walked by me and pressed his lips to mine before making his way. Emmett and Jasper followed him.
"Since it's our last night here, we should totally do something for the guys. You know, a thank you gift, for having to deal with us." Alice said once they guys were out of sight.
"Like what?" Rosalie asked.
"Maybe we could cook them supper and have a camp-fire!" Alice said.
"That's a good idea.." I said. "We haven't had a real camp-fire all together since we got here. And it's our last night here."
"Well, lets get started then!" Rosalie said.
"I'll get fire wood." I said.
"I'll get the hot dogs!" Alice pipped in.
"What am I supposed to do?" Rosalie asked.
"Set up the logs?" I suggested. Rosalie shrugged, and we all got to work.
We each started out tasks and did it as quickly as possible. I came back with as much firewood as I could find. Once I came back to the ground, I noticed that the logs were all circled around were the camp-fire would be, and that Alice was holding a plate full of hot dogs, and had a bag of buns in her other hand.
"Whoa there Bells, that's a lot of wood you got there." Rosalie said, coming towards me. She took some wood from my hands and brought them to the camp-fire spot. Once the wood was neatly placed, we lit the fire up. Alice jumped back a little when the flames burst, giving us warmth and light. In the distance, we could hear the Bad Boys' voices, talking loudly.
"They are going to love it!" Alice grinned. We sat down on the log and waited for the boys. Once they arrived, they gasped, and their mouths hung open.
"Surprise!" Alice shouted.
"You girls did this?" Jasper asked, still staring at the fire. We all nodded our heads.
"Why?" Edward asked.
"To say thank you, for dealing with us on this trip." Rosalie explained.
"Aw babe, come here." Emmett said. Rosalie got up from the log and ran into Emmett's arms. He kissed her lightly on the head, causing her to giggle lightly. It still made me smile, seeing them like that. No one had ever had that effect on Rosalie before.
Jasper sat on the log across from us and stared at Alice, who stared right back. They stared at each other with such intensity, that it looked like they were having a staring contest, or a conversation with their eyes. Jasper smirked, Alice grinned and got up from her seat. She ran to Jasper, and sat on him, her legs on either side of his, as if to make sure he was going nowhere.
And before I knew it, I was being swept from my seat, and onto a lap I knew so very well. I looked up at my Greek god and smiled.
"Thank you." He said before pressing his lips to mine.
"You're welcome." I mumbled against his lips.
"If you guys are done now, lets eat!" Rosalie cheered. We all cheered and grabbed hot dogs from the plate. Once the hot dog was stuck on the stick, we brought it near the fire.
"Don't you guys wish we could do this every day?" Alice sighed wistfully, watching the fire.
"Beats going to college." Emmett shrugged.
"But wouldn't you get bored of doing the same thing over and over? College is going to be something new everyday." I said.
"But it wont always be good." Rosalie muttered.
"But we'll stick together.. Right?" Alice asked, unsure.
"Of course we will." Jasper said, pulling Alice closer to him.
"Oh shit!" Emmett said suddenly, getting up. We all looked at him, only to find that his hot dog was on fire.
"Emmett! What the hell did you do?!" Rosalie said, jumping back. Edward sighed and got up, taking his water bottle with him. He walked over to the burning hot dog and spilt the whole bottle over it. The fire burnt out immediately. A goofy smile spread itself on Emmett's face.
"Thanks man." He said. Edward smirked and walked back to our log.
I stared in disbelief as Emmett picked up the burning hot dog gingerly, and stuffed it in his mouth whole. Alice and I exchanged glances, but Rosalie brushed it off.
"You get used to it, after a while."
"Mmm!" Emmett agreed around his mouthful, spraying crumbs all over us. The fire was quickly re-lit by Jasper, and we dragged our sleeping bags out onto the grass to settle down for the night.
Edward put his arm around me as we stared up at the stars. "Remember what I said. About college."
"I will," I assured him. "You mean to much for me to forget."
He kissed my cheek, and eventually, we all drifted off into dreamless slumbers as the fire stopped roaring and the embers started glowing.
Bababoom! There you go. We hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend! Tomorrow is Nia's birthday! So lets all wish her a fantastic day! :)
