enjoy this chapter and review!!!!!!!
annabelle's POV
after me and dad's tickle fight, he and mom settled in downstairs to watch TV. i was bored, so i went to my room and turned on my laptop.
i noticed my friend alexie rae was online, so i IM-ed her.
"hey" i typed, opening up my email on another tab. i heard mom and dad laughing downstairs.
"hi! where have u been, u werent at school yesterday or today." she replied. but i was waaayyy too deep in my thoughts to answer her.
i had gotten an email from aunt alice from shortly after mom, dad, and i left earlier.
"annabelle, your uncle jasper seems to have bought you a little present after you left. love forever and ever, aunt alice." i sighed and returned to my IM menu with alexie rae.
"yeah, um, i've been doing some mother-daughter bonding stuff with my mom. yeah, i need to go, my sister wants to go shopping." i typed quickly, but i realized too late that it was the wrong thing to say.
"oh cool! can i come?" she asked. i scrambled for an excuse as my fingers hovered uselessly over the keyboard.
"no, my mom says we still need more bonding time. bye!" and with that, i shut down the chat. i waited until alexie rae signed off, too, before i entered aunt alice's email address to my contacts list on the IM system.
after i did, it said she was online, and i IM-ed her. "hey aunt alice, i got your email." i typed, checking the rest of my email.
"oh alright. well like i said, your uncle jasper may have picked you up a little something." she replied. i could just feel the excitement in her words. i sighed.
"i told him that i would pay for whatever it is that i want." and i'm sure she could feel the exasperation in my words as she typed.
"and he told you that as your uncle he has a right to spoil you!" and she put a laughing smiley face at the end of her message. i laughed too, and started typing again.
"so, what's going on there?" i asked, looking for some kind of conversation. it's like i could almost hear uncle emmett's booming laughter as aunt alice replied.
"well, your grandparents are waiting for me to shut up so they can talk to you." she said, and i laughed. aunt alice didn't talk too much...occasionally.
"here they are." she typed. i waited until another message showed up on the screen.
"hello annabelle, this is carlisle." he typed, and i was at a loss of reply for a second. what was i supposed to say, i'd never really talked to the guy!
"oh, hi carlisle." i typed, and i heard dad laugh downstairs.
"i was wondering when you'd be back, your uncle jasper has something for you." he said, and i groaned. why did everyone have to know that?
"oh, yeah, aunt alice told me. i'll see if my mom will let me come back with dad after he leaves." i said, and i heard dad coming towards the stairs.
"i have to go, dad's coming." i typed quickly, as dad walked up the stairs. oh, i wished carlisle would type faster.
"oh, alright, well, i'll see you soon then." he typed, and then he signed off.
as dad made his way up the stairs, i shut down the computer and put it back on the desk. i ran behind the bedroom door, and i had an idea.
well, i just wanted to squeeze in a chapter before i headed off to school *groan*. i hate school. but i'll post another chapter right after i get home, unless i have a ton of homework, then i'll post more later tonight. but i'll get at least 1 more chapter in today, so stay tuned. keep reviewing!!!
