A/N: Again, I just want to thank everyone for reviewing. You might be surprised, but it provides a lot of motivation.
Disclaimer: You can ask anyone, I am not smart enough to think of the Twilight series.
Bella's POV
" I want to kill Emmett, but some stupid bear had to beat me to it!" I groaned.
Edward just laughed, " You don't look that bad."
" Are you kidding me? I look ridiculous!"
Apparently, Emmett had it in his sick microscopic mind that it would be funny to dress me up as a zombie bride. He had Alice actually run out to the bridal shop, buy a wedding dress, so he could rip it up. Then, he put a black and grey wig on me, spattered me with fake blood, and sent me out in public only to endure humiliation. Yes, it was possible to look stupid, even on Halloween.
Edward, on the other hand, looked as absolutely stunning as always. He was wearing just a plain tuxedo which was also stained with blood, but he made it look almost like an acceptable fashion trend. I could just see the hot celebrity models posing in it.
" Can you at least pretend to be excited? For me?" He flashed that annoying crooked smile of which I absolutely loved.
" Fine, but I won't like it."
As a sign of contentment, he sped up a little. Well, to him it was only a little, but to me, it was much more than enough. I braced the sides of the seat, and held my breath.
Edward chuckled, " I would think you'd expect it by now."
" I do, but that doesn't make me fear for my life any less," I said.
" I'll do my best to not kill you," he promised.
I smiled at him, " You do have a knack for that."
He returned the smile, and turned up the radio. I sighed, and slumped in my seat. Tonight, I had no idea what to expect. Parties were not my thing, and Jessica would only make the experience more annoying. I also wasn't particularly looking forward to Mike's awkward presence, and dirty looks aimed at Edward. I guess I had no choice but to go along with it.
My thoughts were interrupted by a roaring sound, coming from the Volvo's engine.
" That doesn't sound good," I commented.
" No, it doesn't," Edward agreed, and pulled over off on the nearest intersection. He opened the driver door and stepped out. I followed, though I knew I wouldn't be of much help, cars were not my thing either.
He took a look under the hood, and sighed, " Where's Rose when you need her?"
" Running about with Emmett and a bunch of candy-crazed children."
" I think you mean, running about with children and a candy-crazed Emmett," he corrected.
" True."
Edward pulled out his cell-phone.
" Who are you calling?"
" Rosalie. Maybe she might be able to walk me through how to fix this."
I leaned against the side of the car, and waited. From the look on his face, I could see we had no luck. He slapped the phone shut, and threw another worried glance at the engine.
" What?"
" No answer," he replied.
I rolled my eyes, " Oh great."
A/N: Well, that's it for now. I am dying of boredom. I'm just trying to kill time here!
