Chapter 9 - Edward and Emmett

"Please, Alice. Just one more hair do?" Rosalie whined.

I shook my head, we had being experimenting hair styles on each other for about three hours now. It was nearing sunset and, I have to admit I would have gladly stayed there all night and styled her hair but we had being sitting here since I arrived, only getting up to get rollers to curl our hair and to have showers. Esme had kindly ran to the shops to buy me some clothes that fitted so that I would have something clean to wear. Everyone else had gone inside a couple of hours ago.

I'd just had a vision and I couldn't wait for it to happen.

* The stars were glittering in the night sky. Edward and Emmett walked in the front door, arriving home from their hunt. They moved into hunting positions when they caught our scent but they relaxed once Carlisle had explained. Edward shook my hand, while Emmett gave Jasper a painful looking pat on the back.*

"Sorry Rosalie, but Edward and Emmett will be home in a few hours" Her expression changed from irritated to excited.
"Really?"She had obviously doubted my visions, I couldn't blame her.
"Yep, I think they'll like me and Jasper"
"Well, I 'm not sure about Edward but I know Emmett will like you, he's so kind and considerate..." She trailed off, daydreaming.

Rosalie really couldn't get enough of Emmett. Every time you mentioned his name she would sigh and tell you all of his good qualities. If he was the same about her then I'm sure Edward would be bored out of his mind on the hunting trip.

I was about to interrupt her thoughts when Esme called me inside.

"Alice? Could you come here for a moment?"
"I'll be back in a minute" I said to Rosalie. She didn't even turn her head, she just nodded.

I laughed as I ran into the dining room where Esme was sitting, looking over a set of blueprints. I sat down opposite her.
"Yes?" I said. She looked up.
"Well, Alice, me and Carlisle were talking earlier and we decided that if you and Jasper really want to stay then you should go and pick a room"

I quickly scanned the future to see which room I would pick.

"There's just one teeny weeny problem Esme..." A look of worry crossed her face, the kind of expression a mum would have on her face when she thought she'd got the wrong birthday present.
"What's that, Dear?"
"The only room I will like already belong to someone"
"Who?"
"I think it's Edward's..." I didn't want to take a room that already belonged to him.
"Oh, I'm sure he won't mind dear"
"No, I couldn't-
"Really it's fine. I'll talk to him. Why don't you check the future and see how he takes it?" I took her advice. I was silent for a moment, then I burst out laughing.
" Alice?" Esme's voice was skeptical.
"He'll be fine about it" I giggled again.
"What's so funny?"
"You'll find out. Do you mind if I start moving his stuff now?"
"Not at all, and what about Jasper? Where will he stay?"
"He'll choose a room on the top floor" I said with certainty.
"Okay, I'll just drive to town and get some supplies so you can decorate your rooms to your liking" She said, getting up to get her car keys.
"Thank- you Esme, I'd appreciate that. Where are Carlisle and Jasper?"
"I think Carlisle is showing Jasper the town, and then they are going to the bank to sort out some financial issues. I'll meet up with them, on my way home"
"Okay, I'll see you in a couple of hours"

She waved as she walked out to the garage. I waited until her car was at the end of the road, then I had an idea.

"Rosalie?" I shouted. She appeared at my side in an instant "I'm assuming you heard the conversation?" She nodded.
"So I was thinking, if you showed me Edward's room, then maybe we could start moving furniture?"
"Great idea"

She grabbed my hand and pulled me upstairs. She stopped when we reached the third door to the right on the second floor landing. I opened the door and stepped in.
It was beautiful, the room was spacious yet cozy, there was a small closet in the corner that would be great for storing clothes. But the best part was the view. I could see the entire forest and nearby river. I could look at it all day and not get bored.

"Um, Rosalie, what are we going to do with Edward's furniture?"
"We can put it in the garage" She wasn't joking "And I can give you some furniture. Me and Emmett have a small house around the corner and I'm sure we could spare a few things"
"Thank you Rosalie"

"We can't move furniture in these clothes. Lets change first"
"Good thinking. We'll have to decorate later as well, so nothing too flashy" I told her as she pulled me to her room where I was currently keeping my clothes.

Once we had changed our clothes and tied our hair back we headed back to Edward's, soon to be mine, room.

"What should we move first?" Her eyes darted to the massive sofa. I saw and evil grin, similar to mine, spreading across her face.
"The sofa" we said together.
"Shall we get started?" She asked. I rolled up my sleeves.
"No time like the present" I replied.

This was going to be fun.


"Alice, can you move that chair slightly for me please?" Rosalie asked.

We had being moving furniture for about two hours. So far, we had got all of Edward's stuff into the garage and we were nearly finished getting some things from Rosalie and Emmett's house. We had also managed to add a coat of blue paint to the walls.

"Sure" I moved the chair a little to the left. She put down the sofa was carrying.
"I think that's it" She said looking around the room.
"I think so too, Job well done" I said.

We had arranged everything as we brought it in. I now had a large sofa, a bookcase, a rug, several large cushions in the corner of the room, a desk, a few books, some shelves, a bed to keep up appearances a a record player and a dressing table.

"I wonder what the boys and Esme will think" Rosalie said.
"We'll find out in about ten minutes, everyone's on their way home" According to my visions, anyway.
"What? They can't see me like this!" She gestured down at her body. I suppose she did look a little ragged, she was covered in paint and her was coming out of its ponytail.
"Why don't you hop in the shower while I choose some clothes for us?" I suggested.

She nodded, then ran out of the room. After a few seconds I heard the shower water running. I went to find some clothes for her in her room.

After a few minutes she emerged from her bathroom, wrapped in a towel. She took her clothes, then went to dry her hair.
"Thank you" She called from her room.
"No problem" I called back.

I moved my clothes from Rosalie's room to my own and quickly got changed and ran a brush through my hair. I looked presentable.
I heard a car coming up the road.

"Rosalie, are you done?"
"Yes, I'm fairly gorgeous" She said as she appeared by my side.
"Great, let's go downstairs and greet them"

When we reached the bottom of the stairs I heard the car stop outside. I heard three people get out and start walking to the house. I recognized their scents, Carlisle, Esme and Jasper.
I couldn't wait to show them what we had done.

As soon as they came in the door, Rosalie took their bags while I grabbed their hands and pulled them upstairs. When I stopped, they looked to stunned to speak.

"Well, what do you think?" I asked them.
"It's amazing" Esme said.
"You've both done a fantastic job" Carlisle complimented.
"I didn't know you had such a talent" Jasper said.
"So you like it?" Rosalie asked, appearing behind us.
"Of course, it's wonderful" Carlisle smiled down at me.
"I agree" Esme said, smiling as well "But we need to add a nice pattern to add to the paint. We can get started in the morning"
"Yay!" I squealed, jumping up and down."Well, we had better go and unpack the shopping" Carlisle said.
"Would you like a hand?" I offered.
"That would be wonderful, thank you Alice"
"Okay, Jasper go and help them while I add the last touches to my room"
"And you're supposed to love me..." Jasper said, shaking his head in mock sadness as he left the room.

Everyone else just laughed and followed him out of the door, except Esme. She stayed and admired the paint on the walls.

"Wow, you really do have a talent for decorating Alice"
"Thank you Esme. Did you get everything you needed while you were out?"
"I think so. We can start work on Jasper's room when Edward and Emmett get home if you like"
"I would like that very much. They should be home in about an hour" I said. She nodded and started to walk out of the room.
"You know, Alice your gift really can be useful, and Jaspers" She said as she walked down the stairs.

I stayed in my room for a while, listening to music and putting up some curtains.

When I was done I went to find Jasper. I found him lying on the grass outside reading a book. He put the book down and patted the space next to him. I went to lie down next to him and rested my head on his shoulder. We just lay there peacefully for about twenty minutes, until I heard a car. Jasper felt me tense and used his talent to calm me.

"What's wrong?" he asked.
"We are about to meet Edward and Emmett"

We sat up and ran inside, waiting to greet Edward and Emmett. I couldn't help but bounce up and down as I heard them approaching the door.

When they cam in they moved into hunting positions.

Don't worry, we're not here to hurt you. Carlisle and Esme let us join your coven. I told Edward in my looked at me with an expression of confusion and fear. I quickly explained in my head how we got here and where we came from. He relaxed and put a hand on Emmett's shoulder to restrain him. Carlisle walked in to prevent any fighting. When Emmett looked at him questionably, he explained to him what was going on and Emmett burst out laughing.

Edward rolled his eyes and came forward to shake my hand.

"Don't mind him, he's got mental issues" He mumbled. I couldn't help but giggle "So you're Alice and Jasper. Nice to meet you. It's always nice to have additions to the coven"

Emmett recovered from his laughing fit and came over to give Jasper a painful looking pat on the back.
"Sorry about almost killing you. Why don't we start over? My name's Emmett" The grin never left his face.
"My name's Alice and this is my soul-mate, Jasper. Nice to meet you." I held out my hand but he just pulled me into a hug that would have broken the bones in a human body.

"Try not to smother our new family members Emmett" Carlisle said. Esme and Rosalie appeared behind us.
"Sorry" Emmett said, putting me down.
"Why don't we go and sit in the garden so we can explain properly?" I suggested.

Everyone nodded and walked out to the garden.

"I'll be there In a minute, I just need to put my car in the garage" Edward said. I froze. Thats where his stuff was.

Crap! Please don't hate me I thought Desperately. It didn't have the effect I wanted it to.

"ALICE!" Edward thundered, in the next second he was standing next to me with his arms folded.
"Yes?" I said, trying to sound innocent, of course I didn't fool him though.
"Why did you choose my room rather than one of the spare ones and why is my stuff in the garage?" He had obviously read my mind and knew the story.
"Well, your room had the best view and it was Rosalie's idea to put your stuff in the garage" I said.
"Well you might as well keep my room seeing as you've changed it to match your personality" He was calming down now, seeing that I was telling the truth. But he hadn't forgiven Rosalie.

"Oh Rosalie...?" Edward said. I heard Rosalie mutter 'crap!" before running out of the garden and jumping over the river. Edward was right behind her.
"Hey! Don't hurt Rose!" Emmett shouted and he followed them.
"No fighting!" Esme called, running after them.

There was a slightly awkward silence, which Jasper broke.
"Well, that's something you don't see everyday"
"You'll get used to it" Carlisle muttered, turning to go inside.

Jasper took my hand and pulled me upstairs to my room. He sat on the sofa and held me on his lap, rocking slightly.

In the distance we could hear Edward shouting at Rosalie and Emmett shouting at Edward. Then we could hear Esme's voice silencing them all followed by the three of them saying 'Sorry mum' in unison.

The laughter escaped me before I could control it

"I don't think Edward and Emmett like us" Jasper said.
"I think you might be wrong about that" I disagreed.
"What makes you say that?"
"Well, according to my visions, even if they don't like us yet, they will soon" I promised.
"You really are unique" he said, kissing my forehead.

Please review! xD :)
