Thanks everyone for the feedback. I've been so exhausted from school already! These updates won't be coming as often as they use to, but I'll try and get them out to you guys as soon as possible. So without further or do here is chapter 9!!!! Stephanie Meyers owns everything Twilight…cheya.
Previously in Chapter 8 (Bella POV)
"I know you don't sleep at all but um…would you like to…lay with me under the covers?" His eyes immediately lit up.
"Sure," he said, smiling at me. He got up and tucked himself under the covers. "Come here you", he said, pulling my body towards him. He dug his face into my neck and kissed it lightly. I sighed. He then picked his head up so it was directly in front of me and moved forward and kissed me on the lips softly. It wasn't as hard and passionate as it was earlier, but it was enough to make me want to melt to the floor. He pulled away and put his hand on my cheek. We gazed into each other's eyes. Staring at him, I knew that his soul was in there. I just wish he knew it was to. He pulled his mouth up into a half smile and kissed my forehead once again. "Goodnight Bella. Dream happy dreams. I love you."
"I love you to. Goodnight Edward." I tucked my head under the base of his neck and fell asleep instantly.
I woke up the next morning with Edward still lying under the covers with me. He was lying on his back while my right leg was hitched over his right leg. My arm was tightly secured around his stomach and my head was on his chest. I blinked my eyes open for a moment and looked up slowly to see Edward staring down at me with the most gorgeous smile I've ever seen.
"Hey you", I said with my voice a little raspy.
"Hey beautiful", he said kissing my forehead, "how did you sleep love?"
"Mmm perfect with you here", I snuggled my head closer into his chest and squeezed him tighter. He chuckled lightly and squeezed me back.
"Good I'm glad", I looked up from his chest and maneuvered myself up towards his face. My lips were inches apart from his. I was just about to kiss him, until my stomach had to interrupted us. He laughed. I ducked my head into his neck. He started rubbing my back. "I love your human qualities Bella, their quite hilarious I must say." I picked my head up a little, only having on of my eyes exposed to look up at him. He looked down at me with the cutest expression on his face. I quickly ducked my head back into his neck and he began to laugh even harder.
"Hey", I said smacking him on his chest, "Its not funny. I can't control what my stomach says. It has a mind of its own." He stopped his laughing and kissed my head.
"I know love. I'm sorry for laughing at you. Now lets get you some food." I picked my head up and nodded. I started to get up, until Edward grabbed my arm and dragged me back towards him. He let go of my arm and put his hand on my cheek. "I said we should get you food but I didn't say right now". He smiled widely at me and I smiled back. He moved closer towards me and kissed me softly on the lips. I kissed him back for a moment until my stomach decided it had, had enough and growled loudly. Edward started laughing and broke the kiss. I rolled my eyes and shoved him lightly. I turned away and headed for the door.
"Come on", I said, "lets feed me before something bad happens."
"I couldn't agree with you more", he got up off the bed, grabbed my hand, and led me out the door. When we reached the kitchen, I smelled the most delicious breakfast food. I walked in and saw pancakes, eggs, toast, and orange juice awaiting me. There was a note from Esme saying she made it and was dissapointed she couldn't be here to see me eat it, but that she had step out and would be back later. I sat down, rubbed my hands together and dove in. Edward sat next to me and watched me eat.
"So", I said taking a sip of juice, "What are we doing today?"
"Well", Edward began, "There are a lot of things we could do today. Aren't you starting school next week with us? Why don't we go out and get you some supplies."
"I'm coming with you!" We both jumped a little when we heard Alice screaming from the other room. It didn't take very long until she skipped her way into the kitchen and plopped down in the chair next to me. "Oh my God Bella we have to get you some new clothes, shoes-"
"Alice", Edward interrupted, "I don't think Bella wants new clothes. She only needs to get school supplies like a backpack, binders-"
"Nonsense!" Alice interrupted back, giving Edward the hand to stop talking. "Bella you need a new outfit at least for the first day! Come on Bella please?" She batted her eyelashes, smiling. I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"Sure Alice you can come with us and pick out a few outfits for me." She clapped her hands and got up from her chair to hug me.
"Thank you Bella! Its gonna be great I promise!" She let go of me and skipped back out of the room. Edward turned to me, with the biggest smirk on his face.
"Bella, do you have any idea what you just agreed to?"
"Um…no. Why should I be scared?"
"Terrified."
"Shopping with Alice can't really be all that bad can it?"
"Oh you'll find out soon enough Bella." I finished up my breakfast quickly and ran upstairs to my room to get ready. When I walked in, I saw an outfit laying out on the bed for me.
"BELLA!" Alice yelled, running out of my closet. I screamed.
"Jesus Christ Alice what the hell!? You scared the crap out of me!" I said, panting like a mad women.
"Whatever Bella. Look! I picked this out for you, do you like it?" On my bed was a pair of black skinny jeans and a white, long, v-neck shirt with a black studded belt wrapped around it. It actually wasn't all that bad until I saw the 6' inch black heals in her hand. I shook my head rapidly.
"Nuh uh Alice I'll wear the pants, shirt and belt. But there is no way in hell I am wearing those heals."
"Fine Bella. I have another pair I think you'll like", she rushed out of the room. She came back seconds later with another pair of shoes in her hand. "Here, these would look great with this." They were plane, royal blue flats. They were decent, I gave in.
"Alright Alice, you win. I need to get dressed now." She smiled, nodded and headed out the door and shut it behind her. As soon as I had my shirt and pants on, Alice was opening my door with a box in her hand. I raised my eyebrow and stared at her. "Alice, what is that?"
"Oh, well, I was hoping….Oh Bella let me do your hair! Please! Rosalie and Esme won't let me touch their hair. I haven't done their hair in almost ten years. Please Bella?! I brought some makeup also!"
"Alice I don't want my hair and makeup done I-", I started to protest, until saw Alice's face go from extremely happy to disappointed. Oh hell.
"Alright Alice, you can do my hair and makeup", her face immediately lit up, "but there are a couple ground rules. Nothing to extreme with my hair. Maybe a few curls, I mean were only going the mall, not a nightclub. With my makeup, I don't want anything crazy either. I want it very natural. Got it?"
"Yes Bella of course!" Alice ran over to the wall and hooked in the curling iron. "Now", she said sitting down next to me on my bed, digging through her box of makeup, "lets start with your makeup and let the curling iron heat up a little….ok turn towards me." I turned towards her and she began her work. It didn't take very long, Alice was a pro. She put a little bit of eye shadow on my eyes and some blush on my cheeks. Then she pulled out a stick, which appeared to be eyeliner.
"No Alice. I'll let you put mascara on me, but no eyeliner. I hate the stuff."
"Bella, I'm only going to put it on the top, not the bottom. It's going to look very pretty, trust me." I rolled my eyes and closed them to let her put the eyeliner on me. Then she applied the mascara and she was finished. She took a quick look at me and smiled brightly. "Bella, your makeup looks killer! Ok, now for your hair…", she got up and got the curling iron. She began putting curls in my hair. There weren't many at all. It was enough to pick my hair up and make it look more full and wavy. After a few minutes, Alice was done with my mini makeover. She got up and looked at me. "Oh my god Bella you look awesome! Put your belt and shoes on I want to see the entire outfit! Wear your belt on the outside of your shirt, not through the loops. That was the look I was going for." So I did what I was told. I wrapped the belt around my waist and slipped my shoes on. I looked up at Alice who was jumping with joy. "Ohmygod Bella! You need to see yourself! Look!" She rushed me over to my mirror, and I must say….I looked hot. Alice knew what the hell she was doing. I closed one of my eyelids to look at the eyeliner Alice had put on. It was a metallic blue color. She was right, it did look cool. I turned to Alice and smiled.
"Alice, I look awesome. Thank you." I hugged her tightly.
"I'm so glad you like what I did Bella!" She pulled away and looked at me. "Now, I have to get a few things from my room. Why don't you go get Edward so we can leave."
"Alright Alice." She quickly unplugged her curling iron and picked up her makeup box and headed out of my room. I looked at myself in the mirror again and smiled. I like this new me I thought. Then I felt sort of nervous. What was Edward going to think of this? There was only one way to find out. I took a deep breath and headed out of my bedroom. I heard the piano being played lightly downstairs. I smiled to myself and headed down the stairs. I reached the living room where I saw Edward at the piano playing. I walked over towards him. He noticed me coming and picked his head up slowly. When he noticed me, he slammed his fingers down on the keys and looked at me with his jaw open. He stared at me for a moment and then got up from the piano and made his way over to me.
"You like? Alice must not be all that evil."
"Alice did this?" He said, wrapping his hands around my waist. I nodded. "Well, I think Alice deserves a little something special." He leaned down and kissed me.
"Yellow", Alice said running down the stairs. Edward and I both turned towards her
"What Alice?" I asked.
"I saw Edward buying me a Porsche, but it was red. I don't want red, I want yellow." I turned back to Edward.
"So Alice gives me a little makeover and you go and buy her a new car?" I asked. He looked back at me.
"Yes, she deserves it."
"Your unbelievable", I said throwing my hands in the air. Edward chuckled.
"Come on girls, let's go. This will totally be the most awesome shopping trip ever!" Edward said, squealing like a little girl. I started to laugh uncontrollably. It was probably the funniest thing that had ever come out of his mouth. Edward started to laugh also. Alice just shook her head.
"Edward, never do that again", Alice said in a serious tone. She then stomped her way out the front door.
"I thought it was funny", I said looking up at Edward. He looked down at me and smiled.
"That's all that matters. Come on love, let's go", we headed out the door and towards Edward's Volvo where Alice was already sitting in the backseat. Edward opened my door for me and I hopped in. He sped around to the driver's side and opened the door and climbed in. He shut the door and we drove off.
The drive to the mall wasn't so bad. We reached it in record time, due to Edward's maniac driving. When we got to the mall, Alice went nuts telling me all the stores she was going to drag me to. Damn Edward was right, this was going to be rough. We got into the mall and Alice started to drag me to her first destination. It was Hollister. I turned back to Edward. He laughed at me, probably at the expression on my face.
"Alice, Alice!" I yelled trying to stop her. "Alice I hate this store! Please, don't let me go in here. Look, there is an H&M next door. I like that store. Decent clothes at a decent price. Please, anything but Hollister!" She laughed.
"Sure Bella, that's fine with me", and with that we made our way into our first store. The entire day went like this. Alice would drag me towards a store I didn't want to go into. I would look to Edward and plead for help. He would just laugh looking just as helpless as I did and then I would try and convince Alice to go to another store. I ended up with some cool clothes though. I ended up with three bags of new stuff. As we were walking to another store, I saw a bench. THANK YOU GOD! I headed to the bench and sat down. I dropped my bags and looked up to Alice, who looked kind of upset.
"Bella, were not done yet! We still have so much more to-"
"Alice", Edward interupeted her, "Bella is a little exhausted. I think sometimes you seem to forget she isn't fully one of us, she can't keep up with you. Hell! I'm full vampire and I can barely keep up with you! Give her a break. Why don't you head out to a few more stores and Bella and me will hang out here for a little while." Alice crossed her arms and nodded. Then she took off to her next store. Edward sat down next to me and put his arm around me, pulling me towards his chest. "You hungry?" I nodded. I was a little hungry. "Hmm…would you like me to get a pretzel?" I looked up to him, smiling and nodding like a four-year-old. He laughed. "Alright love, wait here. I'm just going to run over to the pretzel place and get you one. You want a salted one?" I nodded again. "Alright love, I'll be back in a minute." He kissed my forehead and let go and made his way over to the pretzel stand that was 10 feet in front of us. He came back a couple minutes later with my pretzel in hand. He sat back down next to me and I reached my hand out for my pretzel. He handed it to me and I began to eat.
"You know", I said between bites, "we have been here for almost four hours and I haven't gotten one thing I need for school." Edward laughed.
"I know love I told you. Alice is a dangerous, you should have listened to me."
"I should have. Your right, she is dangerous. I hope Alice comes back soon because we really need to go to CVS or something and get pencils, pens-"
"Don't worry about pencils and stuff", Edward interupeted me, "we have all that stuff at home. We just need to get you a backpack and probably a binder. Maybe some folders-"
"Got it", Alice said coming around the corner, "I got you a back pack and everything else you'll need. I already saw what you were going to buy so I already did it for you. I feel bad for keeping you here so long Bella, you look exhausted. You want to head out?" I nodded my head and got up immediately. Edward grabbed my bags and I through the wrapper of my pretzel in the trashcan. When we got to the car, Edward, of course, opened my door for me and I got in. Being the gentleman that he is, he opened Alice's door as well. He took all of our bags and stuffed them in the trunk. He then made his way to the driver's side, got in, and took off back to Forks. I tried to sleep in the car, but couldn't due to Alice's constant rambling. When we reached the house, I wanted to jump out and kiss the ground. I was so happy to be home. Edward helped me out of the car and picked me up bridal style. Any other time I would be protesting this, but I was too tired to start arguing. Edward through Alice his keys and headed for the house.
"Alice said that she would get your bags, don't worry about it", Edward said walking in the house. She must of has a secret mind conversation with him in the car. I nodded and rested my head on his shoulder. He carried me upstairs to my room. When we reached my bed, he pulled the covers down. As he was doing this, I kicked off my shoes and undid my belt and through it on the floor. He laid me down and tucked me in, clothes and all. I was to tired and could care less about taking my makeup off and changing clothes. He kissed my forehead and made his way to the other side of the bed. He took his shoes off and climbed in under the covers and pulled me towards him so we were facing each other.
"Edward?"
"Yes love?" He whispered.
"I can't wait to start school with you next week."
"Yes, me to. For once I'm actually looking forward to high school." I looked up at him and smiled.
"Do I have something to do with it?"
"Yes love you do. It's kind of miserable going to high school over and over again sort of...alone. I mean Alice has always had Jasper and Rosalie has always had Emmett. Me..well..nobody. I'm looking forward to it."
"Edward, how many times exactly have you been in high school?" I asked.
"To many times to count."
"Do you ever get sick of it?"
"Yes, all the time. But, I don't think I will be sick of it anymore", he said stoking my cheek. We laid there for a moment in silence just staring into each other's eyes. I couldn't take it anymore. I leaned forward and wrapped my hands around his waist. I leaned in and kissed him hard. He kissed me back just as rough. He grabbed the back of my leg and hitched it over his hip. He rolled us over so that I was now laying on top of him. I kept kissing him hard. Our mouths fought against each other. Edward's hands were on my waist, rubbing my sides up and down. I licked his bottom lip and he granted me access to enter his mouth. My tongue wrestled with his. I bit down and nibbled on his bottom lip. He growled and then moved his hands down towards my butt and pushed me tighter towards him. I gasped quietly and continued kissing him. Still holding me close, he then rolled us onto our sides. He pulled me tightly towards him and intertwined his legs with mine. We kissed like this for a couple more minutes until Edward pulled away and pulled my head towards his chest. I was panting really badly. Edward was to. This kiss must have sent him over the edge just as much as it did to me.
"Wow", was all I managed to get out.
"Yes, wow indeed", Edward agreed. I looked back up at him.
"Why did you stop?"
"I didn't want to love, but your tired. I didn't think right now was the appropriate time to go….further. You need to sleep." He was right, I was tired. I sighed and tucked my head under Edward's chin
"I suppose your right, I'm whipped."
"Yes you are. Now sleep my Bella. I love you.", he said kissing the top of my head.
"I love you to." I closed my eyes and feel asleep instantly.
