So starting from today till Friday you'll get nothing but PBJ.............Yes THAT MEANS I'LL BE UPDATING DAILY TILL FRIDAY
I also change what I was gonna name this chapter
Chapter 9- A Wake Up Call Alice Cullen Style
Alice
To say that I was ecstatic when Bella approach during lunchroom would really be putting it mildly, Jazz had to literally send a few waves of tranquility my direction to contain my euphoric high. My family and the entire cafeteria was shock that she actually did approach the table most people do tend to shy away from us base on their subconscious instincts warning them of danger. I would of talked to her right there in the lunchroom but I felt Jasper tense due to her closeness and even though her presences does not ignite the magnitude of bloodlust the way she does with Edward; Jasper is newer to this lifestyle and I rather not tempt him with her company just yet.
After making arrangements to meet up first thing Saturday morning with Bella I realize she really did not know what she gotten herself into when it comes to shopping, I think I might have to tone in down a bit just so I don't scare her off with my love for shopping but then again what female doesn't love shopping?
That night I went hunting just to be on the safe side even though I know I would not harm her I've never actually been in such close quarters of a human and we at least had a 2 hour drive up to Seattle "hmm I wonder how fast we could make it to LA for some shopping on Rodeo Drive," No no that maybe too grandiose for our first outing together and how would I explain getting into LA in under 6 hrs and to think it's going to be lovely overcast day in Los Angeles too.
After picking up some muffins, donuts and coffee I arrived at Bella's just as Charlie was about to leave to go fishing. "Oh Hello Chief Swan I'm Alice Cullen?"
"Hello Alice nice meeting please just call me Charlie, your early I thought Bella said you guys weren't leaving later on in today?"
Well since we're heading out for some sightseeing and shopping in Seattle I figured since we have a long drive ahead of us we better get an early start on our day.
"Well you both have fun today."
Upon entering the house I place the goodies I brought for Bella on the kitchen table and headed upstairs to Bella's room. Bella's room was painted a pale blue color and the furniture in it had a vintage like feeling to it. Her walls were particular bare except for one painting with her initials in the bottom right corner of what appeared to be two people overlooking a field of wild flowers and a playground. I smiled looking at that picture because even though she may block things out to hide from the hurt this was the park I first met her in when she was 7yrs old.
I was pulled out of reminiscing when I heard ruffling of sheets and Bella pleading in her sleep saying to someone "Please do not leave me." Her features looked so trouble from this dream so I decided to wake her up. I walked over to her bed and knelt down next to her bed and gently shook her in attempts to wake her. "Wakey Wakey sleeping beauty?"
She turned over sighing and then started saying "you're no different than the others"
Bella it's me Alice wake up it's just a dream, she rollover again and sighed Edward's name. I thought it was adorable her sleep talking and her calling out Edward but for the talking it did not sound like it was a pleasant dream.
I shook her one more time and she slowly started to wake-up, she parted her eyes still have sleep and just stare into my eyes and whispered "It's you…my angel…I thought I'll never see you again." I froze in place no she couldn't possible remember me yet could she or perhaps she's still sleep talking.
Bella wake-up it's just a dream, she started rubbing her eyes and looking around like she was lost before she looked at me asking me "what is time it and how did you get in here?"
Oh Charlie let me in on his way out the door to go fishing and it's only 5:30 in the morning. I watch as Bella's eyes gotten wide when I told her the day and she groan "Jesus Alice 5:30 why are you waking me up this early it's a weekend I at least thought I could sleep in till 10 or something."
"Look Bella I sorry if it's early for you but I figure we could start our day early especially with a long drive plus you can catch up on your zzz's in the car. Now get up and go take care of whatever it is you have to do and meet me downstairs I brought you some breakfast treats."
Bella
"Isabella," It was a voice that I knew all to well. I ran to the figure off in the distances and threw my arms around him. As he held me tightly I started sobbing uncontrollable in his arms and he rubbed circles on my back saying "Isabella its ok everything is going to ok now." I looked up to him with tears in my eyes and said "Daddy is it really you?" He kissed my forehead and whisper "Yes baby girl it's really me but I cannot stay long it's not safe for you here." I wipe the tears from my eyes and look up at my father however his features were not the same as I remember it; his posture was stiff, his skin was paler than normal, he was very cold and there was something about his eyes that looked off. He started dislodging me from him and I yelled "Please do not leave me." As he let me go I fell onto my knees and looked up to my father and began to cry again. He turned his back to me and I just hung my head low feeling rejected, hurt and unloved all over again.
As I sat there cry I felt a hand on my shoulder thinking it was my father I lifted me head only to find Edward standing just were my father had been standing. He was glaring at me again with murderous eyes and I cringed away from him into a corner. As I began rocking back and forth in the corner his features soften and he reach out towards me saying "Bella please understand it's for the best." I reached out grabbing his hand and he pulled me into an upright position. Once face to face with him I looked into his black as coal eyes and saw pain, despair, sorrow, admiration, hunger, agony and a few other emotions I could not place. I wanted to take away from him the negative emotions he was displaying because I felt like his pain was my pain. I reached up to caress his cheek but he grabbed my hand very tightly mid air and hissed at me. He dropped my hand and turn around walking away from me. I felt rejected again for a second time but Edward's rejection hurt me more than my own father. As he gotten further and further away from me I whispered "you're no different than the others" because he was leaving and everyone always left me to be alone, he had stop when the words left my mouth and looked like he was trying to plead with me with his eyes, he said "good-bye" and all I could do was sigh his name as despair filled me heart. I felt someone calling out to me shaking me however no one was around me.
As I started to look around for who was calling out to me everything became too bright and I have to squint my eyes because the light was too blinding. I look out in front of me and there was a tiny figure with topaz eyes. All I could see still as the eyes of this figure and as the figure got closer I could feel love radiating off this person towards me. However I still could not see nothing but the eyes and It was familiar eyes and I felt lost within those eyes like I was looking into their soul but it was looking through those eyes that I realize who the person was and I murmur" It's you…my angel…I thought I'll never see you again."
I felt someone tugging on my shoulders saying "Bella wake-up it's just a dream." I woke up rubbing my eyes feeling a bit disorientated and still feeling a bit down from my dream because everything in it especially the emotions felt so real. I looked around my room and my eyes fell upon Alice, I thought to myself right it's Saturday sightseeing and shopping however it looked too early out and how did she get in.
"Alice what is time it and how did you get in here?"
"Oh Charlie let me in on his way out the door to go fishing and it's only 5:30 in the morning." 5:30 in the morning I thought to myself and my eyes became wide as I looked at her she was so chippy and full of life and it's only 5:30am just my luck she's a morning person groan at her "Jesus Alice 5:30 why are you waking me up this early it's a weekend I at least thought I could sleep in till 10 or something."
"Look Bella I sorry if it's early for you but I figure we could start our day early especially with a long drive plus you can catch up on your zzz's in the car. Now get up and go take care of whatever it is you have to do and meet me downstairs I brought you some breakfast treats." I gotten out of bed grabbing my toiletries and headed to the bathroom grumbling morning people are so pesky and I heard Alice laughter and it was a sound as smooth as church bells.
Once I was dressed I headed downstairs to meet Alice in the kitchen and in her hands that was stretch out towards me god bless was a large cup of coffee I told the lid off the cup and with one smell I was in cappuccino heaven. "Hmmm Alice how did you know this was my favorite?" Alice looked at me smirking and while shrugging before saying "I just have a knack for knowing things." I sat across her as I took a sipped and moan cause of the delicious flavors of caramel with a hint of peppermint that entice my taste buds early this morning.
I became eating my poppy seed muffin while ask called out my name with questioning eyes as I looked up to her waiting for her to proceed with whatever was on her mind. "Bella I just wanted to know if you were alright because while you were sleeping you were mumbling something's and looked full of sadness as you slept." I looked into her eyes and saw nothing but genuine concern and trust within them. I did trust Alice even if I did not know her well but something about her made me feel like I've know her my whole life especially whenever I look into her eyes but I was not ready disclose the type of dreams that's haunted as far as I could remember. Then I realize she said she heard me mumbling some things and I became a bit worried; nervously I ask her "what exactly did you hear me mumbling?"
She looked at me and it appear as she was choosing her words careful I guess because of my nervousness before say that at first it was incoherent mumbling and then I start saying actually words like "Please don't leave, you're no different than the others and something along the lines of my angel I thought I'll never see you again,." I felt like there was something else she wasn't telling me so I raised an eyebrow before questioning her "did I say anything else?"
She looked at me with a small smile before talking so fast that it sounded like one word "youmayofsaidmybrothersnametoo."
"Come again Alice I did not understand what you said and please don't go all Six from Blossom on me either."
"Well Bella you said my brother Edward's name" she looked at me waiting to see how I respond to that but all I could was blush out of embarrassment. When I did not speak up she tried to lift my spirits making a joke out of it. "Humph I do not know whether to be offended or pleased that you call my brother's name out in your sleep… exactly what type of dream you're having missy?" I could not help but to crack a smile at that nor did I miss the innuendo but I still felt embarrass that she heard me call out her brothers name and I began to wonder whether she was thinking I have a crush on her brother or that I was just like the rest of"Team Edward" groupies at school that would do anything to be with him.
Still seeing that I was a bit uncomfortable about my dream Alice changed the subject "So are you ready for a full filled day at Westfield Southcenter mall in Seattle among doing other things?"
I just smiled and nodded my head as headed out the door towards her car. I turned to her and ask "so you're the owner of the Volvo?" She turned to me before mumbling "god no this is Edward's baby." At the sound of his name my heart a sped up a bit and I could of sworn Alice looked at me before she continued "I do not actually own a car myself and it was either this car, Emmett's monster jeep or Rosalie's car besides this car has loads of space which we're gonna to need at.
As she started driving off I figured my nerves would be a lot calmer if I gotten this off my chest now. "Hey Alice"
"Yes Bella"
"I was wondering if everything is ok with Edward because ever since my first day of school I haven't seem him since then and I couldn't help but to feel I'm the cause of his absences."
She took her eyes of the road to look at me and as I viewed the speedometer I began to panic. "Geez Alice could you slow down and keep your eyes on the road your going 120." She had ease up a bit and answered my question with a question "Bella why would you think him not being in school has anything to do with you?"
"Well" I began with to talk a moment so I could word everything correctly. "You see Edward and I have Biology together and during class I tried to introduce myself to him and he just gave me the cold shoulder before he began glaring at me with hostile eyes." I paused to see if she was going to say and when she never did I continued. "Later on that day I had to go to the office after school to hand in my slip I saw Edward again and I did not mean to eavesdrop on the conversation but I heard him asking Mrs. Cope was there anyway he could get out the Biology class we happen to share together. His tone was like pleading and along the lines of desperation to be in any class but that one. Then when Edward notice I was in the room his posture went rigid and he turned around glaring again. I swear Alice if looks could kill I'll be dead."
She stay silent for awhile I guess she was taking in everything I said but when she finally did answer me she put my worries to ease somewhat. "Bella, Edward a complicated person to understand also he has been going through some changes well before you came and he has a lot on his plate. Sometimes he comes may come across a bit antagonistic but you have to understand, the rest of us have someone we can confide in personally and Edward's sort of like the loner in the family he never opens up."
"Now he'll never admit this to anyone because he feels that he doesn't need anyone and that his life is fine just the way it is but I feel that without him not having that person in his life that completes fully is making him the way he is now. He's starving for companionship, understanding and answers but just do not know how to go about it."
"I'll be the first to apologize for his behavior and I'm sure once you see each other again he'll apologize too but Bella hear me out when I say Edward behavior you saw that day is not how he truly is. Edward is a very special person in so many ways and it's going to take one hell of amazing person to knock those walls he's spent years building. Give him time to come area."
All I could do was nod me head because in a way I could actually relate and if I did know any better I would of thought she was describing myself. She glance over at me thoughtfully and said "you know what Bella not only do I see you and I being great friends but I know that you and Edward are going to be good friends for one another too."
I looked at her and smile before telling her "Thanks Alice your friendship and openness means a lot to me and as far as being friends with your brother lets that take that one step at a time afterall people have to be around each other to form those type of bonds."
"So not that I do not mind talking about my brother and all but if you do not want to catch up on your zzz's during this drive how about we kill some time by playing a game of 21 questions or how many questions it takes for us to make it to Seattle to get to know one another?"
