Chapter 3

After about 2 hours later we decided we were going to do Romeo and Juliet the way it was meant to be. Alice decided we would go shopping on Saturday in Seattle for some "authentic" Shakespearian clothes to pull everything together. I had to admit that she was very smart and had everything completely laid out on paper down to the tee.

She decided that Edward was going to play Romeo (even though he didn't know it yet) and unfortunately I was to play Juliet. I tried to argue (really hard and very unsuccessfully) but she would hear it. She said, "Bella you were born to play her, you're perfect. From your adorable face, to your beautiful brown hair and eyes and your perfect physique…" Perfect me? She obviously didn't know me well. Was she blind? I admit I had the brown hair and brown eyes and I know I'm small but no where near perfect. Of course she made me blush and exclaimed that even blushing helped me play Juliet. There was no way I was winning that argument, so I just gave up.

About the time we were cleaning everything up, Alice's older brother came home from football practice, followed closely by his girlfriend Rosalie. Rosalie was tall, blonde and beautiful! She was by far the best looking person I had ever seen! She made my self confidence drop just by walking into the room. She was perfect for Emmett. Emmett was a very muscular guy, he was tall and had very short brown hair, definitely didn't look like a senior and was beyond handsome. This family definitely had gorgeous kids. I could only imagine what their father looked like. Which brought my thoughts back to the mysterious brother I had never met. I started to imagine what he would look like when I heard my name, bringing me back to reality.

"Bella this is my brother Emmett and his girlfriend Rosalie. Guys, this is my friend Bella." She was calling me her friend already, it felt good. We had spent most of the time working, but of course there were lots of giggles and gossip. I felt like we'd known each other forever, so I definitely considered Alice a friend. It was nice to know she thought so too.

"Hi Bella, it's nice to meet you." Rosalie said, extending her arm out to me. I shook her hand and told her it was nice to meet her too.

"Bella Huh? I've seen you around school before. You're the one who trips over flat surfaces right!?" Emmett said, with a huge laugh following. Rosalie elbowed him and told him that was very nice.

"No it's ok. He's right. I've always been that way. The nurses at the ER know me by name. They once told me they were going to give me a permanent room and I could just move in." Emmett started laughing so loudly that I thought I was going to bust an eardrum.

"Wow Bella! You're funny! It'll be great having you around! Like my own personal entertainment!" He could barely get out the complete sentence when an arm came from nowhere and punched him in the gut. "OUCH! Damn Alice that hurt! Why'd you do that?"

"That was not a nice thing to say Emmett. God I swear sometimes you don't have a brain! Come on Bella, lets go hang out in my room till suppers done." I said goodbye to Emmett and Rosalie before following Alice upstairs. "God my brother can be such an ass! I'm so sorry Bella."

"It's ok, I'm used to it. At least my klutziness will amuse someone! It just always embarrasses me." I tried to not think about me making a foolout of myself in front of Emmett tonight. I really didn't want to give him a reason to laugh at me again, but I doubted that was even possible. "So what are we going to do till it's time to eat?"

"How about a manicure!? That would pass the time quickly!" I seriously doubted that. "Come on, you can pick out a color and I'll get to work" I looked at her collection of nail polish and immediately chose a very light pink color and she rolled her eyes. "Seriously Bella, we're gonna have to work on your wardrobe and color choices. You're so pretty, a little make up and the right clothes and you could be drop dead gorgeous! Come on let's fix you all up before supper!" What!? First it was just a manicure now it was a complete makeover. Friendship with Alice was coming at a big cost to me!

Right as we started looking at her clothes there was a knock at her door. "Alice, are you in here?"

"Yeah dad… come in there's someone I want you to meet." Alice's dad walked into her room. Wow! There's definitely something wrong with this family! There's no way every one of them are this gorgeous! Alice's dad had beautiful blue eyes and striking blond hair. He had a fair complexion and great bone structure. "Dad this is my friend Bella, Bella this is my dad Carlisle."

"Hello Mr. Cullen, It's great to meet you." I didn't know what else to say. I was mesmerized by his beauty. I could only imagine what he did for a living, model, actor. Whatever he did there no way any women got any work done around him.

"Hello Bella, it's very nice to meet you. Please call me Carlisle we are a very informal family around here." He seemed so normal and nice, it wasn't what I was expecting. "Alice your mom wanted me to come up and tell you supper will be ready in about 30 minutes."

"Ok dad, thanks! Oh, is Edward here yet?"

"Yes, he got home a little while ago. I'll see you downstairs."

"OK so, let's get you out of this baggy t-shirt and into something a little more form fitting! You should show off your curves!" This was not what I wanted to do tonight, but I thought I'd let Alice have her fun. Just this once, hopefully.

About 30 minutes later she had me in a whole new outfit. She decided my jeans were too baggy and didn't show off my butt enough. She had me in what I had to admit was a cute outfit. Tighter Jeans than I was used to, but still comfortable. A really cute blue t-shirt that was tight and showed "all my great curves", as Alice put it. She put a few curlers in my hair while she worked on my manicure. When she was finished with my nails she pulled out the curls and pinned a few locks of hair back into a cute clip. She finished with a touch of makeup, not too much 'cause I wouldn't let her go completely nuts!

"All done!" She said happily. "Wow Bella, you look great! Come here and look in the mirror!" I took one look at myself and couldn't believe it. Just a change of clothes, a little make up, curls and I looked completely different. I liked it!

"Wow Alice! You should do this for a living! Thanks! It wasn't nearly as painful as I thought it was going to be."

"I'm so glad you said that!!" Uh oh, what did I just do? "I thought I could buy you some new clothes, and some makeup. And shoes! You have to have new shoes! We could do it Saturday when we go to Seattle! Oh my god this is gonna be so fun!"

"Alice, I don't want you buying me clothes. Really, I felt bad enough that you'll have to buy all the costumes for our project. I'm not going to let you spend any money on me." I felt pretty confident in my argument and I thought she would drop it. Boy was I wrong!

"Isabella Swan. You look amazing and I am NOT letting you go back to those boring baggy clothes! No questions. I AM buying you a new wardrobe with or without you. If you go with me at least you'll have somewhat of an opinion on the clothes!"

"Alice…"

"NO! Don't 'Alice' me. I'm not taking no for an answer."

"Fine, whatever." With that, Alice's face just lit up like a kid on Christmas morning! Well at least someone was happy.

"Girls, it's time to eat", called Esme from downstairs.

"Come on, I'm starving, and now you can meet Edward!" I was kind of excited to meet the mysterious brother. After meeting the rest of his family I could only imagine what he looks like. Gorgeous I'll bet.

We walked down stairs, well I walked, Alice bounced! I rounded the corner and was totally unprepared for what I was about to see.
