I arrived home, exhausted and ready to fall asleep right there on the floor. Alice had come running into the living room, looking like she was going to kill somebody.
"Bella!" She screamed at me, which cause a massive headache.
"Alice, what are you screaming at me for?" I yawned, my eyes beginning to shut.
"I haven't seen you in forever and we live together!" She yelled.
"Okay…" I tried to walk past her so I could to go my bed, my loving, precious, comfy bed.
"Bella, I missed you." She started crying and hugged me; whoa mood change.
"Alice," I sighed. "I'm sorry I don't see you as often as you wish…"
"Thank you." She started sobbing.
What is wrong with this girl?
"Alice, I think you should go to bed, you must be tired." Obviously.
"No!" She screamed causing me eternal deafness.
I shut my eyes trying to gain my hearing back.
She pouted. "I am not sleeping; we need to do something right now!"
"Alice; there is nothing to do; it's past midnight, what do you want to do? Go for a midnight run?" I asked sarcastically.
She paused, and smiled. "Great idea Bella, I'll go get my jogging gear now!"
"What," I exclaimed. "Alice, I wasn't serious!"
"Too bad,"
"I am too tired to go jogging, outside, in the cold!"
"Well toughen up, [i]you're[/i] the one who wanted to go for the jog!"
What?!
Something is definitely up with this girl.
…
"Alice," I groaned. "I'm dying, can we please stop this madness!" My legs felt as if they were going to collapse on the spot, and my heart was beating faster than ever before.
"Bella," Alice sighed. "You're so out of shape, common girl! Move those legs, we've got 2 more miles!"
2 MORE MILES?!
"You got to be kidding me?" I murmured to myself.
"Bella, think about it this way, tomorrow –well this morning, or possibly this afternoon- you'll wake up feeling like a new person!"
"Yeah," I muttered. "I doubt that…"
"Hey!" She hissed. "Don't back talk me little missy."
"Sorry…"
"See, we're almost done; one more mile!" She grinned.
Somebody save me.
…
My legs hurt more than words could describe. My heart was still racing from the midnight run. My head hurt, and to top it all off; I couldn't sleep, no matter how tired I was.
I kept thinking about Edward.
I know right? How corny, but it's true.
He was on my mind all night long; and it's now- I looked at my clock to see the time- 4:30 A.M – Alice and I had finished our jog at 2- so I've been awake for a while, and still going to be awake for another long while! I have insomnia because of a guy… but it's not just any guy; it's [i] the [/i] guy.
Why did [i] the [/i] guy have to be so… perfect?!
I shut my eyes trying to fall asleep; wasn't going to happen.
