This chapter is dedicated to two people.
Firstly, TwiPrincessSami for her constant and uplifting reviews and secondly to twifanforver406who was my 100th reviewer! Thank you all so much for taking the time to review After Happily Ever After, it means so much to me.
Revenge? What does she want that for? I only met her today!" I cried. I'd only known the girl for a day but, hell it felt longer than that.
"I don't know! You're the one who's been fighting the girl all day! Surely you have to have some idea." She said baffled.
"Edward." I remembered. "Alice, I've been sitting with you talking about SHOES while Edward…" I trailed off.
How stupid was I!
Edward and Emmett were still under the control of that mind controlling freak, I'd absentmindedly put that aside while I gabbed about SHOES!
Well, if he remembers anything by the end of this, I can just say he told me to wait for him here.
He did say wait, didn't he?
I'd forgotten the last words my beloved said to me.
I was a terrible wife!
"Bella! Snap out of it." Alice ordered, clicking her fingers in my face.
"Sorry." I mumbled.
"I know she has Edward and Emmett, but I can't see either of their futures. I can't see her clearly though, only glimpses every now and then." She said quizzically.
"What's that mean then?" I demanded more so than asked.
"It means she's somewhat close to what we were or are." She said. "Maybe she's part human or vampire, but she's not full of either."
"She denied being vampire; she was repulsed when I even suggested it." I told her.
"Honestly, are you going to trust what she has to say? She's trying to steal your husband, and Rosalie's for that matter…" She trailed off and smiled wider than I ever imagined she could.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking B1?" She smiled mischievously.
"B1?" I asked.
"Bella one. They were showing Banana's in Pajamas on the plane. It's an Aussie children's show, from the 90's or something. So retro!" She sighed. "Retro is so hot right now."
"I'll take your word for it. Rosalie's not going to help me!" I cried.
"No, but if her husband's at risk, that girl is going down." She smiled.
"Alice, she's got some mind control ability, what if she gets you too?" I asked panicked.
"Bella, you're the one with the shield." She said obviously.
"Right." I blushed.
"To the transporter!" She said batman style, and ran to her cupboard.
"Alice." I grumbled and followed her.
***
"Please enter your name." The transporter asked as Alice set the little square box up.
"How cute is that!" Alice chirped. "Alice and Bella." Alice typed in while she said a loud.
"You think it'd be voice activated in this day and age." I grumbled.
"Enter desired destination." The box asked.
"Forks High School." Alice typed and said again.
"Please hold." The box requested.
"Please hold? What is this?" I shouted.
"A transporter. Now calm down Bella." Alice sighed.
"I know what it is…" I began but before I knew it I was being sucked from my standing position.
***
"OW! Crap! Alice!" I shouted as we both landed in a crumpled heap within second at Forks High School.
"So the device has a few kinks in it! Give the inventor a break." She said as she picked herself up and smoothed down her blouse.
"I feel really nauseous." I said, feeling my face turn green.
"You can't feel nauseous." Alice scolded.
I pulled a face at her when she wasn't looking.
"Lead the way Bella, to Rose's office." Alice said again, batman style.
"Alice we are in a very serious situation, yet you can find the light in this?" I asked her.
"I have to make up for my lack of height somehow. What better way than spirit." She laughed and skipped down the hall.
What did I do to earn spending all eternity with her?
***
"Rosie! I'm home" Alice cried as she flung open the door to Rosalie's office.
Rosalie cursed, and dropped her game boy on her desk.
"Alice! It's you! You scared me!" She breathed, and jumped up to embrace her.
I stood at the door, inspecting my nails.
"Oh, you brought her." Rosalie pouted, and turned around.
"It doesn't matter who she brought." Alice piped in. "Emmett's in trouble."
"Damn straight he is!" She shouted and planted her hands on her hips. "He allowed her and that other girl to create a riot in my school." She frowned and death glared me.
Then I noticed her eyes.
"Alice, her eyes, they're blue." I whispered.
"So…" She whispered back.
"When Beth's got them under control, their eyes change back to their human colour." I whispered anxiously.
"Oh." Alice breathed. "Well, we best be off…" Alice smiled uneasily and backed away, holding my hand.
"Dimwits, I could hear you. And for your information, my eyes were naturally brown." She hissed. "The blue is contacts, see?" She said as she pulled on from her iris.
Alice and I exchanged glances, disbelieving.
"Now Bella's gone and turned you against me too has she?" Rosalie cried. "If it wasn't for your daughters begging and pleading to take her away from her dreary home, than I wouldn't have bothered trying to sneak her away. You were too protective of her Bella. You and Edward. She hated home, I had every right to take her away, I loved my niece." She hissed fiercely.
Her words hurt deep, so I slapped her across her pretty face with all my might.
She bit her lip when the impact came to hide the pain it caused.
"With a mother like you no wonder she left home as soon as she turned eighteen." She whispered, harshly to me.
"Rose…" Alice began.
But it was too late, I hit her again, tears stung my eyes.
The memories of my unforgivable past were returning.
