Edward and I were looking at the note again. There was something wrong with it. Something very obvious. But neither of us could figure it out.

Edward was even more engrossed in it than I was. Every hour was spent on my letter and the last sentences Aviv had said to me.

"It's something so obvious." Edward said, exasperated.

"I know. But with a little more time we'll figure it out." Edward couldn't give up on me. If he gave up, I'd have no chance of figuring it out. I mean I've looked at that paper so many times and I was pretty sure I wouldn't figure it out by chance now.

"I know we'll get it. We've got forever. But when you think about it even if we don't figure it out you can always become an actress. Horror movies love talking dolls and that gets them out of paying for the computer work." He laughed, and I glared at him.

"It's not funny. I'd die, remember? Plus I'm not a very good actress." I said. He laughed again but stopped short when there was a knock on the door. I immediately stuffed the note in my pocket and stiffened my back. Edward looked around to make sure everything was in order before laying languidly on his couch.

"Come in." he said, as loud as he would talk if the person was right next to him. But I knew they would hear him clearly.

Alice came in quickly and started looking around; behind doors, in his closet, and behind his cd rack.

"Alice, may I ask what you're doing?" Edward said calmly.

"Edward I'm pretty sure I heard you talking to someone. Were you?" Alice asked, coming to stand in front of him. He looked at her like she was stupid.

"Alice you're the only person that's been in here all day." I noticed he evaded her question, and he was also honest. Shewas the only person to be in his room all day. Since technically, I'm just a doll.

Alice though, didn't notice the evasion.

"Okay I believe you." She said. Now there was an actor. He tricked a psychic! If I didn't know that everything he was saying was a bunch of bull, I'd even think he was telling the truth.

"Just remember Edward, you can tell me anything. I won't judge you…or your partner." She said, whispering the last part.

"I'm all for gay pride." she said. I was about to burst from the laughter I was trying to contain.

Edward on the other hand looked ready to kill.

"Alice," he said through clenched teeth. "How many times do I have to tell you I'm not gay?" She nodded.

"I'd believe it, if it wasn't for the fact that you've never shown any interest in women, when they make very obvious advances towards you and if I didn't come home to find half of my wardrobe gone and your scent the most recent." She turned.

"Tomorrow you're taking me shopping to replace the clothes you stole." Alice paused.

"We'll have to take my car. Yours is making a weird noise. Almost like there's 8 gallons of milk in the carburetor. But I have no idea how that could have gotten there."

She was gone before Edward could fully digest what she'd just said.

"Wow, Edward, or should I call you Edwina? I didn't know about your secret life as a cross-dresser. Aren't her clothes a little too small for you?" I said laughing. He just glared at me.

"Give me the note. I just got an idea."

All traces of joking left my face. I handed him the letter and scrambled onto the couch so I could look over his shoulder. He stared at it for what seemed like forever, while I worried about what he would come up with. What if he truly does have the answer? How would I get there? No matter how fond Edward had seemed to be of me now, didn't mean he'd walk around with a doll to get me there. What if I do find her and I'm too early?

I believed that I'd changed, but what do I know? I didn't think I was as horrible as I really was back when I was human. How would I know if I was any better now?

Edward spoke then, pulling me out of my reverie.

"When I was looking into Alice's mind I saw that she went to Israel, and something clicked. What if all these numbers that we passed off as grammatical errors are really a code or address of some sort and when she told you to "Tell Aviv" maybe she meant Tel Aviv, Israel and that's where you're supposed to go!" He stopped, waiting for my response. But I couldn't say anything.

It was so easy. I couldn't believe it took me 90 some odd years to figure it out, and technically I didn't figure it out. Edward did. I'd looked in the World Atlas so many times, just for fun. I never would have thought… He was still waiting for me to say something.

"I…I don't know what to say. Thank you?" I stuttered.

He stared at me for a second before pulling me into a hug.

I was shocked. I'd never had a real hug before. Sure little girls would clutch me to them, but to me that didn't count. But what Edward pulled me into was something actually meant to make me feel better. All of the worries I'd just had disappeared. I knew then that Edward would take me anywhere and help me with anything.

Something about the way I was feeling made me think that if I had a heart; it would be beating wildly right now.

EPOV

I pulled Bella into a hug, careful to be very gentle. It was very odd; the sudden urge to comfort her. I figured that's what I was supposed to do as her friend. Somehow Bella had become very close to me. If I was going to be honest with myself she was my only friend outside of my "family".

Yes I was comforting my friend.

But if she was really just my friend why did it feel like a piece of me was missing when I let her go.

APOV

I was looking around my room, trying to find something that would tell me how I had ended up going to Tel Aviv, Israel. What had made me want to go there? I couldn't remember. It was like a big blank in my memory.

I mean I landed and knew that I was looking for something, but the memory of what it was had completely vanished. It was almost like I woke up from a dream. I would have thought that I had, if it was even possible for me to dream.

At least I got some good shopping done, which proved to be helpful since Edward had decided to use my clothes to fulfill his fantasy as a cross-dresser.

EPOV

"I'm going to ask Alice if she wants to come." I said.

I had no problem with just going to Tel Aviv with Bella; it would make most stuff easier actually. She could talk to me and I wouldn't have to make up something to explain why I was walking around trying to find a person that I'd never met before.

But Alice would be very useful with her gift and she could hold Bella while we were in public. It would still look a little odd for a grown woman to be carrying a doll, but better than a grown man walking around with a doll and talking to it on top of that.

"That's fine. Probably best. She should know her way around since she was just there. But how are you going to explain what we're looking for?" Bella asked.

"I'm, not really sure yet." I admitted.

She nodded. "What if you try the same thing Alice tried to do with you? Just tell her the truth and if she doesn't believe it, oh well, but if she does…"

Oh. I can't believe I didn't think of that before. To be honest, Alice may believe me. She's always been more open-minded about things. I'm sure she'll believe me, to a certain extent.

There was a knock on the door. I put Bella on my couch, next to a new book I'd gotten for her, and opened the door.

It was Alice.

"Yes Edward I would love to go to Tel Aviv again! There was this cute little shop that I didn't get a chance to go into. You wanted to tell me about something about what we're looking for? You can tell me on the way to the mall."

I only had time to look back and give Bella a slight wave before Alice dragged me away.

BPOV

One week later we were at the airport about to board the 10:30 flight to Tel Aviv. We had a short lay over in New York's LaGuardia Airport. I'd never been to New York before. I wouldn't really get the chance to look around but Edward promised he'd bring me back.

"Oh Bella they had these cute dresses for dolls! We'll have to buy you some." Alice squealed.

I couldn't respond to her or even look alive but I knew she knew I heard her.

"Alice there's no reason to buy Bella more dresses. She should be human soon and I don't think they'll fit her anymore." Edward said.

I'd forgotten about my impending change back into a human. It was so close, but I was getting ahead of myself and I was getting my hopes up.

If this turned out to be wrong I didn't want to get disappointed…too badly. I was already excited, and really hopeful.

"Flight 736 departing to New York LaGuardia." The flight attendant announced.

"That's us. Let's go." Edward said, like we all didn't know.

"Thanks for informing us of that Edward, because neither of us heard the announcement just now." Alice said sarcastically. Edward ignored her and grabbed our bags. I mean their bags. I didn't have anything but a dress that Alice stuffed into her purse.

We found our seats (In first class of course) and Alice sat me in her lap. The flight attendant came to check that the shelves for bags were tightly shut. She noticed me and told Alice that she had to stow me away underneath the seat in front of her or in her bag.

I started to get nervous. If Alice put me on the floor my chances of breaking would be very high, same with in a bag.

Edward noticed my discomfort.

He turned to the attendant who was still standing there, but now I noticed her eyes went wide at the sight of Edward and her smile got a little wider and her tone kinder.

"I'm sorry but the rules are that any carry on must be underneath the seat in front of you or in a bag. I can't change them. No matter how much I would like to help."

He looked at her fully in the eye.

"Are you sure there's nothing you can do? Nothing at all." He asked in a voice that would probably be in her dreams for the rest of her life.

"Okay, but make sure none of the other attendants see her and hold onto her tight." She smiled and I couldn't tell for sure but it almost looked like she handed him her card. She walked away with a lingering smile and her eyes still on Edward.

He turned to me with a triumphant smile, but I couldn't return it.

I hated to admit it. But I was feeling something that I hadn't felt in a long time. Jealousy. I have no idea why. It's not like I have a claim on Edward or anything. I mean we were just friends. And even if I wasn't a doll, Edward would never return the feelings.

And like Alice said, he was probably gay.

A/N I like the last line. So whaddaya think? I'd like to know and the best way to do that is to REVIEW. Thankie. Oh and sorry if there are any grammatical errors in any of the chapters. I don't have a beta and haven't felt like trying to find one. But like I said Review.
