I had this thing written and then I couldn't find the file, so I retyped it like three times. But I didn't like any of the rewrites and then I found this. So enjoy!!
"We need some streamers in red and black, and also cups, plates and stuff like that. Can you go look over there for some Bella?" We had just walked into Walmart and we had decided to split up to go faster. My job was to get food and drinks and anything else I could think of. Aisle 1 here I come.
"Alice" I spun around at the sound of my name.
"Hey Rose, what are you doing here?" I glanced around, but she was alone.
"Well my parents are having a dinner party on Sat-"
"Please don't say Saturday!"
"Yeah its on Saturday, but me and my brother are totally not invited. So why couldn't I say Saturday?"
"Because that is when my party is. Do you know where they chips are, by any chance?"
"Over here, I'll show you. So do you have any invites yet? If you do I want one." We had just gotten to the snack aisle and we filled the cart with them.
"I have to print them out tonight, so I'll have them to give to you tomorrow. Hey look there's Bella, she's my best friend. Come on lets go talk to her." We walked over to where she was standing- comparing two different types of streamers.
"Jez Bella, it's not that hard to pick out streamers, and these ones are much better than those." I pointed to ones still on the shelf. Bella blushed and hastily put the ones in her hand back on the shelf and the ones I had pointed out in the cart.
"I'm Rosalie by the way. I have cafeteria duty with Alice."
"Oh, I'm Bella. Are you coming to the party?"
"I haven't gotten any invitations yet but if I do, I'll be sure to ask about it." She winked at me as she said this. "Well I got to go find my mom."

"Bella do you like the invites with the pink border, or the ones with the rainbow border better?" I had been asking her these types of questions for about an hour, and we were not close to being done. We only had what we were going to put on the invitations, not what they would look like, or who to invite. It did not help that she kept on dozing off.
"Umm, I kind of like the pink ones."
"Really, cuz I like the rainbow ones. But if you like the pink ones other people might not like the rainbow. But pink also says girly, and I don't want a girly party. I mean I am throwing the party for Edward, who is a guy. So you still think we should go with the pink ones?" Bella groaned at me. I mean this is an important party, she should be putting more effort into it.
"Alice, I have been thinking to much today, I need a break. Please let me go home, I promise to help you to the best of my ability tomorrow." See she just wants to ditch me.
"Fine, go home. I'll finish printing them out tonight. But you are going to have to go shopping with me on Thursday."
"Wait, why would I have to go shopping?"
"We need new party outfits, I mean my other dress has a stain on it."
"Okay, that stain is tiny, just send it to the dry-cleaners. It will come out."
"No shopping will be your way for making up for ditching me. And if you refuse to go with me, I will make you go shopping with me for the next month."
"Fine, I will go with you. But only because I don't want to go any other time. Bye Alice." She got up and gave me a hug.
"Bye Bella." After she left I went to go see if Edward was in his room, which he was. He was sitting at his desk- that I picked out- reading some sheet of paper.
"Edward, did you have fun at football." I swear he jumped a foot out of his seat.
"Gosh, you scared me Alice. How did you know I went to the football tryouts today?"
"Well I'm throwing a party for you and I wanted you to help but you weren't in you room so I asked my mom where you were, and she told me you were at football tryouts. Did you make the team?"
"I don't know, they are going to post them on Wednesday after school. Why are you throwing me a party?"
"Well, you are the new kid and you don't know that many people, so I decided to throw you a party. Is that a problem?" I glared at him to make sure he said no.
"Of course not, I just wanted to know."
"It is on Saturday, and you have to go shopping with me and Bella on Thursday."
"Is Bella the girl with the brown hair."
"Yeah, you were checking her out this morning after I introduced you to her. Do you like her?"
"I don't know, I had one conversation with her. It's 11, I have to go to sleep now. Good night Alice."
"Good night Edward."
