Alice, Rose and I ran upstairs to "get ready for bed". We all knew we wouldn't be sleeping much. We had way to much to catch up on. The boys stayed downstairs to play some stupid video game.
I barely had time to lock the door before Alice bombarded me with questions.
"So Bella, would you like to explain to me what was going on with you and Edward earlier? Why was he carrying you? How did you get him to dump Tanya? Why was he looking at you with those stupid puppy eyes all night?"
"Yeah. You guys totally looked like a couple," Rose said, waggling her eyebrows.
"Well… I walked up to Edward. And he was fighting with that girl, Tanya?"
Both girls nodded.
"So she saw me walk up, called me a slut, and then I told her that I was Edward's wife. She got pretty pissed, yelled, and Edward broke it off."
"Ha!" Alice yelled. "Anything else?"
"I like Edward, like... a lot," I sighed looking at the floor.
"What?!" the girls asked shocked.
"I think... well- I like him," I giggled looking at their shocked expressions.
"I knew it! Didn't I know it Rose?!" Alice smirked. "Does he feel the same?"
"Well that's where I need your help. Can I use a computer?" I asked.
"Yeah, here," Alice smiled handing me her laptop. It was pink- of course.
I logged onto my IM account and scrolled through all of my past conversations until I found the one that I was looking for.
"Here it is," I smiled.
Alice and Rose leaned into the screen to read the text.
PianoPlayer: Love you Bella.
It was from the conversation where I told them about my parasite.
"What does it mean?" I asked, "I've been trying to figure it out for months and I've had no luck whatsoever."
"I have no clue. But as soon as you leave I leave I will talk to him," Alice giggled, "Let's get our pajamas on."
Alice reached into a bag that was sitting next to her bed, She chuckled, throwing me a short blue nightgown with short boy shorts. The tags were still on, naturally.
"Rose, take this," Alice giggled throwing her a short black nightgown with boy shorts.
Alice approved our skimpy outfits before slipping on her own short magenta nightgown with pink detailing on it with short boy shorts also.
I quickly took the poof out of my hair and then pulled half of it back into a pony tail.
"Okay, we need to talk," Alice declared.
"Why?" Rose and I asked simultaneously.
"Well, I wanted to talk about boys but we already covered that so we are going to talk about the Masquerade party that I am throwing in three weeks." Alice smiled.
"Okay," I smiled. We just sat there for a few minutes, planning this massive party. Eventually we got off track and Alice told me we were going to first beach in the morning, They had swimsuits for me.
We ended up doing nothing, just hanging out and we all grew bored..
"Guys… I'm bored. Can we go downstairs and play a game with the boys," Rose begged.
"Why of course. Let's go play truth or dare," I suggested.
"Brilliant!" Alice exclaimed.
"Let's go," we giggled, hooking elbows.
I took extra care walking down the stairs. In the back of my mind, I noticed the boys had switched games from Guitar Hero to some shooting game. We couldn't see into the game room, but we could hear it!
"Emmett?" Rose called out loud. Emmett ran out of the game room to the stair we had just reached the bottom of.
"Yeah Rosie?" Emmett called before he came into our line of vision. "Holy shit!" Emmett yelled looking all of us over. Crap! I forgot what we were wearing! My brother plus really short shorts equals all hell breaking loose.
"Emmett, just calm yourself," I warned.
"Bella," he sighed, shaking his head. Instead of arguing with me he just walked over to Rose and carried her into the living room. When we walked in Edward and Jasper both turned their heads to see what Emmett was yelling about. They both looked at us for a long while. "Shit!" Jasper yelled when the game he was playing made an odd noise and the word "Dead" flashed across the screen.
"Hah!" Edward yelled. "That's what you get for staring!" He looked smug, until the same thing happened on his side of the screen, his character dying too.
"What was that Edward?" Jasper asked as he stood from the couch and dragged Alice to sit next to him.
Emmett had thrown Rose on the dark blue chaise lounge. Edward just sat on the floor staring at me, I caught him staring and blushed ferociously. Are moment was ruined when Emmett threw a pillow at Edward's head.
"Stop staring at my sister you perv!" Emmett joked.
"Ha-ha Emmett," Edward fake laughed.
"Eddie gets to sit next to my little sister on the green love seat. Oooohhhhh," Emmett whistled like an immature little kid.
"Emmett did mom and dad drop you on your head as a baby or something?" I asked.
"No," he huffed sticking his tongue out at me.
"Whatever you say Emmett," I smiled.
"Let's play a game." Alice said, jumping off of Jasper and walking over toward me.
"Sure Ali. Whatever you want," I chuckled.
"Okay. We're gonna play two truths and a lie. I go first. Let's see… I've had sex. I never wanted to be a doctor. And I've only had one boyfriend my whole life," Alice chuckled, "Bella you get to go next, so you guess which is my lie."
"That's easy, you've never had sex because you would've told me if you did," I chuckled noticing that both Alice and Jasper were blushing.
"This game isn't embarrassing enough. Let's play truth or dare," Emmett whined.
"Fine," Alice huffed.
"Okay, Emmett truth or dare?" I asked.
"Dare little sister," he chuckled at my face.
"I dare you to dye your hair pink for a week," I smiled evilly.
"Fine," he said, trying to look like he didn't care, "I'll do it tomorrow morning."
"That should be interesting," Edward chuckled.
"Shut up Eddie! Ummm… Jasper truth or dare?" Emmett asked.
"Truth. I don't trust your dares," Jasper shivered.
"Fine. Have you ever been in love with a girl besides Alice?" Emmett asked.
"Not really in love. But when I was four, before I developed my crush on Alice, I had a crush on Tanya," he shivered, "Scary! I can't believe I ever liked her."
"It's okay Jazzy I forgive you," Alice smiled. Turning on his lap to give him a kiss.
"Get a room!" Rose yelled as a joke.
"This isn't even half as bad as you and Emmett," Alice shot back at her.
"Let's start again," Jasper suggested, "Rose truth or dare?"
"Truth," Rose answered.
"Let's see have you ever had sex in a place other than a bed?" Jasper asked.
"Yeah," Rose answered with her head down blushing, "And that's a weird question for a brother to ask his little sister."
Jasper just shrugged his shoulders and laughed at her facial expressions.
"Alice truth or dare?" Rose asked quickly changing the subject.
"Dare," Alice answered quickly.
"I dare you to kiss the person to your left," Rose smirked, looking at… oh crap! She was looking at me.
"Bella?" Alice asked shocked, looking at Rose.
"Yep! I remember that time we played I Never, and you won cause you were the only one that hadn't kissed Bella. So, I'm getting you back for that." Rose chuckled to herself.
"Okay," Alice shook her head walking over to me, "Sorry Bella."
She kissed me really quickly and then automatically after our quick kiss we book started cracking up at the stupidity behind this dare. It was so funny, but now at least Alice didn't feel left out anymore. We were both wiping our lips when Alice spoke.
"There done," Alice chuckled walking over to where she was sitting before.
"Okay, Edward, since you are finding this so funny. Truth or dare?" Alice asked.
"Dare," Edward answered.
"Hmmmm… I dare you to kiss Bella for fifteen seconds," Alice smirked at me. God! What was this kiss Bella day?
"Oh, um... okay." Edward said turning his head toward me.
"I'll tell you when time is up," Alice chuckled basically to herself.
I looked up into Edward's eyes and slowly moved my head toward his. I knew that I was blushing like crazy.
Within seconds our lips were touching and it felt like an electric shock went though me. It was so different from anything else that I had ever felt ever before. Our lips moved in synchronization and it felt like we were two puzzles pieces that fit together perfectly. Edward's tongue grazed my bottom lip, and I opened my mouth to him.
"Times up!" Alice called breaking us out of our kiss. I was first to pull away even though I really didn't want to. I could've sworn that I heard Edward growl at Alice's impeccable timing.
"Well, that was intense. Since Bella is the only one left and she has already been kissed twice, by two different sexes might I add," Rose chuckled, "I vote that we watch a scary movie."
"Yeah!" Emmett cheered.
"Let's watch either One Missed Call, Quarantine or The Strangers," Emmett suggested.
"Why not watch all three?" Jasper asked, "It's not like we have school to worry about."
"Let's start with The Strangers," Alice smiled standing up.
"Okay," I chuckled realizing that I didn't have Phil anymore to keep me safe. When I was growing up in Phoenix, mom, Phil and Connor really loved watching scary movies and I didn't. So Phil would always sit next to me and make sure that I felt safe while I was watching that movies. Now that I had moved I didn't have anyone to keep me safe. Emmett was with Rose and Jasper was with Alice, that only left…Edward.
Emmett put in the movie and I shifted in my seat, already scared. I tried to keep brave through-out the movie, but I covered my eyes half of the time.
"Are you okay?" Edward asked me about five minutes into the movie.
"I hate scary movies and back in Phoenix I made Phil keep me safe. I wasn't as scared then." I said, blushing.
"What did Phil do to keep you safe?" Edward asked.
"He would put his arm around me. It just made me feel safe."
"I could keep you safe," he smiled, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. "Like this?" He asked.
"Yes. Thank you," I said.
The movie continued and got even scarier. I buried my head in Edward's neck during all the scary parts.
Eventually, Edward laid down on his side, pulling me with him. His arm moved to my waist and his hand played with my hair. "Did Phil do this?" He whispered into my ear.
"No." I whispered back.
"Is it okay?" He asked.
"Fine." I stumbled out. He smiled and returned to watching the movie. I felt so comfortable in Edward's arms. He was very calming. He didn't seem to mind that I kept my face pushed into his neck or chest, and he would whisper comforts to me and tell me when the scary parts were over.
The movie came to and end and someone flicked the lights on.
"Well don't you two look comfortable," Alice commented chuckling.
"Hey," I grumbled, "I don't like scary movies."
"Sure, sure," Alice smiled.
"Whatever you say Bella," Emmett chuckled.
"Your suppose to be on my side Emmett," I whined.
"I play for both teams," Emmett said and it just made Edward and I chuckle.
"You got that didn't you?" Edward whispered in my ear still laughing.
"Yeah, I did," I chuckled answering him.
"Emmett I didn't know you played for both teams," I smiled hoping that they would catch on. Rosalie got it automatically, as did Jasper.
"I'm very capable of playing for both teams, Bella. I'm a big hunk-o-man" He said, and we all burst out laughing. Emmett finally caught on.
"Really funny," Emmett fake laughed.
"I thought it was funny," Edward commented.
"I still don't get it," Alice whined.
"Both teams as in he likes guys and girls," I chuckled not making eye contact with Emmett.
"Oh," Alice laughed putting the movie in the player and laying down with Jasper.
Alice put in Quarantine and sometime during that movie I fell asleep.
I was in my room back in Phoenix and Connor and James were there. They were both wearing orange jumpsuits, the ones they wear in jail.
"What do you want?" I asked them.
"You," they answered.
"No." I cried out.
"We will do whatever it takes," James smiled evilly.
"No!" I cried again.
"Maybe we should kill Renee and then go look for her dad, hell, we can kill my dad even" Connor suggested.
"I like that idea," James chuckled.
"No! Stay away from them," I said sternly.
"I told you we'll do whatever it takes," James answered.
"Don't touch them!" I yelled.
"How about I just kill you instead," James suggested.
"No! Stay away from me!" I cried.
"How about we finish what we started," Connor suggested to his friend.
"I think that's a good idea," James chuckled his evil laugh.
"NO! Get away from me! Get away!" I yelled through sobs.
"Bella?" someone shook me awake, "Bella, wake up, it's just a dream."
It took me a moment to realized where I was. Edward was looking at me with worry, His hand was rubbing circles on my back. "Sorry for disturbing the movie," I blushed.
"You didn't. Don't worry. We were just worried about Edward because we thought that he was going to get punched," Emmett chuckled to himself earning a slap from Rose.
"Sorry Edward," I blushed even more.
"Don't worry about it," he smiled at me, "Are you sure that you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine. Sorry for worrying you," I sighed.
He smiled weakly at me and told me to go back to sleep. I nuzzled my head into his chest and fell back into sleep. This time, I slept peacefully.
EPOV
At the very beginning of the second movie she fell asleep and then she started tossing and turning.
"Careful there Eddie she looks like she is going to punch someone," Emmett laughed.
"No" Bella whispered.
"Bella?" I asked trying to get her attention, "Emmett does she talk in her sleep?"
"I don't know about now, but she used too. I would never get any sleep," he chuckled.
"No! Stay away from them," Bella whimpered, it was starting to scare me.
"Don't touch them!" Bella cried. "No! Stay away from me! NO! Get away from me! Get away!"
She had started to cry and thrash, and that's when I decided to wake her up.
"Bella?" I shook her, "Bella, wake up, it's just a dream."
She looked around for a moment before her eyes met mine. "Sorry for disturbing the movie," she blushed.
Emmett made some stupid remark that embarrassed Bella even more, earning a slap from Rose.
"Sorry Edward," she blushed even more.
"Don't worry about it," I smiled, "Are you sure that you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine. Sorry for worrying you," she sighed. I knew that there was something that she wasn't telling us but I wasn't going to push it.
"Go to sleep Bella. It will all be okay," I whispered in her ear.
