Alice had happily agreed to be the one charge of my wedding- which I was undeniably ecstatic about. Having Alice by my side for the whole process would make things just as remarkable. I had pictured it already- knowing Alice this wedding would be truly astonishing. The question really was when this wedding would be. I had promised Edward I would marry him- and I don't even know when I want it to happen. For all I know I would want to get married tomorrow! At least I'd know Alice is already up for the challenge of our wedding.
I just love saying that; our wedding.
I began singing a tune inside my head when Alice had arrived home.
"Alice," I appeared at the doorway, "how was lunch with Jasper?"
"Amazing," She sighed. "…Hey bells, I just realized this- you and Jasper hardly even know each other."
"I suppose that is true."
"Hey!" Her eyes widened as if she had discovered a cure for a disease, "would you and Edward be up for a double date? I think it would be such a good idea for all of us to get to know each other. Seeing as I hardly even know Edward as well."
I thought about it for a moment- I was pretty sure Edward wouldn't complain- he's always been to kind. Getting to know Jasper would also be a plus- seeing as since Alice is planning our wedding- Jasper would be entitled to come, and I know how boring weddings could be to the people who don't even know the two getting married. Of course it was a great idea. "I'd actually love too Alice." I smiled at her. "I'll call Edward tonight about it."
"Great!" She clapped, "can't wait! Is tomorrow night good for you?"
I nodded, and her smile brightened as she skipped to her room.
I turned back to the living room and continued reading my book until Alice came back out of her room.
"Did you want something while I'm out?" She asked as she grabbed her purse off the kitchen counter.
"You're going out?" I asked as I placed my book on the coffee table.
"Yeah, I wanted to stop by Starbucks. Did you want to come?"
"Sure," I got up from the couch, and threw on a pair of shoes. I grabbed my bag and we left.
…
"How are things with you and Jasper?" We had just arrived at the shop- now waiting in line to order.
"Things are going so great; I really can't wait for our double date. You think Edwards' going to be up for it?" She asked, as we approached the counter.
"I'm sure- Edward wouldn't mind."
"Good," She smiled- and turned frontwards to order. "How's work coming along? Did I tell you –can you hold this- that I got a job interview." I took the cups from her as she fetched her bag.
"Oh really," My eyebrows lifted, "I'm glad you've finally found something. Where's the interview?"
"I applied to be an intern at Vogue! How cool is that?" She smiled.
My mouth dropped. "Wow, congratulations!" I hugged my friend as we sat opposite each other, a tall table separating us. Alice has always had such interest in fashion and style.
"I know- I'm so happy! I was so surprised when I found out I got the interview. It's pretty crazy." She smiled and sipped her coffee.
I mimicked her actions, and our conversation went on. We spent most of the afternoon sipping on coffee- well now almost cold coffee, and chattering on about random and pointless, yet amusing topics.
I love my best friend.
