Chapter 2
I stared at her confused for a few seconds.
"The were wolves? What are you talking about Alice?"
She sighed obviously frustrated.
"I can smell them, they're outside and they want to give us a little reminder."
Alice hurriedly helps me out the dress and hangs it up as I get back into my normal clothes. Why would the wolves be here I mused to myself as Alice wrenched the door open to find Edward waiting tight as ever. I walk over to him and asked the question the rest of the Cullen's had gathered around us to find out.
"What do the Quillete's want?"
Edward stays wound up tight, I didn't even know if he had heard me so I reached out and held his hand. This time he looked down slightly softening his face at the sight of me then saying loud enough so that I could hear as he knew his family would hear.
"They're here to congratulate me and Bella on our engagement."
"What's wrong with that?"
Esme asked in her sweet motherly voice.
"The problem is that they are also here to remind us of the treaty."
He spat. Everyone looked surprised, some faces of my to-be family looked slightly angry.
"They know we know the treaty just as well as them so why would they come over here? Carlisle asked gently to Edward.
"Because Jacob told them our plan to change Bella once we were married."
I gasped, why would Jacob do that? I know he held a grudge for choosing Edward over him but I still thought he was my friend. I guess not. Edward squeezed my hand as I came back to earth, then told his family it was time to go and meet them. We walked down the stairs behind the rest of the Cullen's. We walked out into the light of outside, waiting in a line for the wolves to show themselves. Surprisingly it was Sam, Embry and Quil. Jacob hadn't come, I guess in a way that was good because I might not have been able to stand next to Edward and keep my mouth shut while the rest of them talked.
"Welcome,"
Carlisle said always polite.
"May we ask you what brings you here to our home."
He gestured to the rest of us standing slightly behind him now.
"I think you already know why we are here,"
Sam answered courtly while looking at Edward.
"But we still have to say it anyway."
Carlisle nodded his head.
"We know the treaty very well; we do not need any reminders."
Sam chuckled.
"In this case I think you do, remember. Bite not kill."
The whole time he was saying that he stared at me, trying to say something through his eyes but not quite managing to show it.
"We know the treaty and if you don't mind we are kind of busy arranging a wedding."
Alice smiled sourly at them while saying that, her face portraying her dislike of them.
"Ah yes,"
Sam nodded once.
"Congratulations Bella, we hope you are very happy."
"I am."
I replied as politely as I could knowing the true meaning of his words-I hope you made the right decision. With that the wolves turned and ran of into the woods, their bodies shaking just as they entered the thick cover of trees. Alice skipped over to me and almost squealed too high pitched for me to hear,
"time for you to try on your shoes!"
Before I could protest I was being dragged away from Edward, he trailed behind chuckling at the look of horror on my face as we neared her room. Once again the door was shoved in Edward's face. And again a warning not to look in her mind otherwise there would be dangerous consequences. Talk about DE-JA-VU(?).
"Alice you know I won't be able to walk more then two steps in those death traps."
I pleaded, I was nearly ready to get on my knees and beg if it would have worked but one look at Alice's face changed my mind. I knew I had lost. She was putting on her face that would make anyone do anything for her. It was the sad face of tragedy that she had used on Charlie to allow me to stay at the Cullen's for a "sleepover" which was really just a lie so that I could be hidden during the fight with the newborns. I sighed,
"Ok Alice if it makes you happy I'll wear the shoes."
She jumped and gave me a hug telling me thank you over and over again then letting go of me and becoming serious.
"Sit down."
She ordered me pointing to a chair by her vanity though I have n idea why she would need one considering she didn't wear make-up. Slowly I walked over to the chair and sat down thinking about the wedding and wondering how embarrassed I'll be when I fall over because of the shoes. Alice came over and slipped them on my feet after I had finished taking off my own ones. She smiled brightly.
"Perfect fit!"
I looked down, they matched the dress perfectly. With Alice helping I managed to stand up. As carefully as I could I made my way around the room nearly tripping once or twice but luckily Alice caught me before I hit the floor. Sitting down again I pulled them off and smiled slightly at Alice,
"At least that's over and done with."
While putting my own shoes back on.
"Yeah and at the wedding you will look so gorgeous in those shoes and dress"
she said looking into the future to see what I would look like on the day. I got up walking to the door; it is going to be a long 2 days.
