I had spent the morning shopping and just got home. I opened the door and walked in. "Danny? Honey are you here?" I walked into the living room and gasped. I could feel the blood draining from my face. There, sitting on my couch was Alice, reading a magazine. "Are you going to stand there?" she asked.
I shook my head, I just stood next to the wall and leaned against it.
"Sit down," Alice ordered softly. "You look like you're going to faint." She put the magazine back in the basket below the coffee table
"How did you get in?"
"Your friend Lila was here when I came, I told her who I was and I wanted to talk."
"And she just let you in and left?"
"Do you really need her to watch me in your apartment?" Alice asked, a hint of hurt in her voice.
"It doesn't matter, she should've stayed until I arrived," I replied,
"I'm your sister."
"My sister…" I repeated angrily. "who I haven't seen in a year. Why are you here Alice?"
"I decided it was time to see you." She said.
"Why? Why now? You resisted all this time."
"Bella, I know your mad at me…" I cut her off.
"I'm not mad Alice! I am HURT, you a-ban-don-ed me!" I emphasized abandoned, the heartbreak that I managed to hide the last year came flooding back.
"Bella, you know I love you. I am so sorry!
"You say you love me. People who say they love someone couldn't easily walk away. But you know I guess it's easy to leave when you're dead and don't have a heart."
I could tell from the pain look on her face I had hurt her feelings with that statement. I felt slightly bad for saying something so harsh but at that moment I didn't care.
"Bell…Bella, you have to believe. I never wanted to leave. You're my sister, not by blood but by everything else that matters. And when I had to leave it was the hardest thing I had to do."
I got mad, I said "But you left. You left! ALL OF YOU LEFT! And not one of you had the guts to say goodbye."
"I didn't want to leave." she repeated. "None of us did. I tried to convince him not to leave, all of us did. He wouldn't listen; he just demanded that we all leave as quickly as possible. We were completely against his decision."
"When you all left me, you took a big part of me." I sat down in the spot where I had been standing. "I loved all of you with all my heart. You were my family, especially you Alice. You were not only my best friend but my sister. Edward hurt me when he left but you hurt me even more. Sisters are supposed to be forever together."
"I am so so sorry Bella." If vampires could cry Alice would be crying right now. "Please don't hate me - " I cut her off.
"Alice I don't hate you."
"I feel really guilty right now. I know it took me a long time to return but I am here now. I want my best friend back. .my.sister.back."
I sighed finally letting go of my grudge against Alice. "You've always had me Alice, I have always been your sister. We've just been apart for a awhile."
"YAY!" Alice threw herself at me, "Oh Bella this is wonderful! I so happy!" I laughed happily at finally having Alice back. "We're going to have to much fun together."
"Alice, human here! Difficulty breathing."
She jumped off me and helped me up. "Bella I am so glad you forgave me. I'm so happy."
"Me too." I remembered what I said earlier. "Um..Alice, that comment I made. The dead thing. I'm sorry."
She just waved her hand to dismiss it. "I know you didn't mean it. There is something though."
"What is it, Alice?"
"The others will be here in a day." She said tapping the side of her head.
"Oh…."
"You know that we all love you, everyone else wants to see you, especially Esme. She will be so happy to see you again."
"Uh yeah…ok…I'll see them. I can't wait to see Esme, I've missed her very much."
"Oh good. She'll be so happy."I laughed. "I'm glad." I smiled. "Alice, I know something we can do today and catch up at the same time."
"What?"
"Didn't you already see it?"
"I can't see your future just yet. I haven't been able to see your future the past few months and when I asked Carlisle he thought it might be the guilt I have been feeling about leaving you. I should be able to see soon.""Oh I know you hate it but it makes what I am about to say even better." I laughed. "I know what we can do. We are going to go…we're going…to…uh…"
"Belllllllllllllla! Spit it out!!"
I laughed. "You can't blame me for enjoying this. It's not everyday that I can stump you Alice.' I laughed even more.
"Bellllllllllllla!"
"Ok ok, we're going to go….shopping!"
"YAY! YAY! YAY! That's perfect! Ooh! This is going to be so much fun!" she squealed.
"I knew you'd like the idea."
She squealed wrapping her arms around me and jumping. After that she grabbed me and my purse and walked out the door. ________________________________________________________________________
Alice is one of my favorite characters. I didn't want Bella to hold to much of a grudge against her. I Hope you guys like it. Review!
