APOV

All night I've been lying in bed, silently, trying not to move. Bella sleeps still, I hear her breath softly, it caresses my skin. It has been a long time since I have slept, and I can't remember what it is like. I close my eyes and focus on Bella's breathing. The sun is just about to show it's glory in the early morning hours. I can't believe the night has passed so quickly. I think of everything that happened last night.

"Alice.." Bella murmurs.

"I'm here, Bella. Just sleep.." I whisper, caressing her warm cheek.

Bella moves her leg up, still sleeping, and rests it on my waist. She is wrapped around me and feels like a hot water bottle, but slightly bigger.. I let my hand hover above her leg, not touching her skin.

Stop it, Alice. This is insane..

I know I can't take this much longer, lying here with Bella so close, pressed to my own body. Carefully, I get up and out of bed, placing pillows underneath Bella's arm and leg so she won't notice I left the bed. I stand back and watch her sleep. Bella snuggles her head into the pillow more and doesn't notice I'm gone. Softly I leave the room and run towards the shower. I have to get her scent off me as soon as soon as possible.

She smells too.. too good..

Once in the shower I take my shower gel and rub it all over me, making sure I get every inch. After that I wash my hair, repeating it twice, to make sure there's no Bella left on me.

Sadly enough..

Wrapped in a towel I look at myself in the mirror. I'm sure that if it was possible I would blush right now. I focus on the voices I hear outside the bathroom and murmur one of my favourite songs. I'm sure Edward didn't focus on my mind last night, otherwise he would have barged into my room and taken Bella as far away from me as possible..
When I reach my room, still wrapped in the towel, I see Edward sitting next to Bella, on my bed. Bella looks at me, then back at Edward, and starts to blush.

What a delicio..Thissss issss how we'll dance whennnn... when they try to take us doownn!!

Edward pops his head up to watch me, then smiles and looks back at Bella.

Thank god for Paramore..

I block my thoughts and walk towards my walk-in-closet. What shall I wear today? It will be lovely weather in the afternoon, I've seen it, and Bella and I are going to shop until she's no longer able to walk. I pick out a purple dress and a grey legging to go underneath with a pair of purple ballerina flats. Surely this will fine. When I walk out of the closet Edward is no longer sitting with Bella, and she looks up at me through her eyelashes.

"Morning," Bella says, smiling at me.

Ohhh glooooorryyyyyyyy, ohhh gloryyyyyy! This isssss how we'll daaaaance whenn....

"Morning, Bella. Did you sleep okay?" I smile back at her.

"Yes, amazingly without any more nightmares.." she says, nodding her head.

If I could blush.. ..SO LET THE FLAMES BEGIN..!!

I change the subject and look at her pyjamas.

Wrong idea..!!

"So, what are you going to wear today?" I ask, trying to act as normal as possible.

"Well, Alice, I'm sure I'll look like a tomboy again next to you. Your dress looks beautiful on you!" Bella smiles at me and I remind myself to keep blocking my thoughts. Suddenly, another vision.

Bella. Accident. Shops. Blood. Resisting. Touch.

Damn it, why are they in flashes!? I still have no clue about the last vision, and now this one makes even less sense.

"Alice! Are you ok? Did you have a vision?" Bella has my arm in her hands and looks at me, a touch of panic in her brown eyes.

"I'm fine, Bella. Relax. I have visions all the time so they don't scare me at all. I just saw that today is going to be a perfect, sunny shopping day!"

Bella groans but with a playful smile on her lips.

"Really, Bella, no tomboy clothes today." I look at her and wink playfully. "I'm going to find you some clothes in my closet, and you are going to wear them!"

Quickly I run into my closet with vampire speed and grab the clothes I think would look nice on her. A black knee-length dress with a pair of silver ballerina flats.

"Here," I say, smiling brightly, while handing her the dress and shoes. "This will do just fine."

Bella looks at me, sighs and then decides not to argue with me this morning. While she walks towards the bathroom I quickly open my diary again and write my vision down.

Surely they must mean something. I just don't know what..

BPOV

When I walk into the bathroom it smells amazing. The damp of an earlier shower still hangs in the air and pearly drops of water drip down the Italian tiles on the walls.

Alice was here, minutes ago..

My heart skips a beat while thinking of Alice taking a shower.

Bella. Focus on Edward, damn it!

I take off my pyjamas and put on the shower. The water feels hot and steam quickly spreads through the small space. I let out a soft moan while the hot water makes my skin tingle. When I think of reaching out for a bottle of shower gel my eyes fall on the two wet bottles on the side.

Alice used those two..

Without thinking I let my fingers slide down the bottle of shower gel, as if I could touch a little part of Alice while doing this.. Then, the next bottle. Shampoo. I pick it up and hold it in my hands for a moment. While squeezing out the shampoo on my hand I feel a cold breeze run through the shower.

"Who is there?" I ask. I try to see who it is but the steam doesn't let me.

Please let it be Alice, please, please please..

"Bella.. it's me.." I hear Edward's voice whispering.

..Oh..Edward..

"Mind if I join..?"

Slowly he walks towards me, wearing nothing but his boxer briefs.

Damn, hot!

"Hmm.. Edward. You look.. perfect." I moan.

"There are no right words for telling how you look right now, Bella," he whispers in my ear.

He takes of his remaining underwear and steps into the shower, standing still next to me. My knees are shaking and I quickly wrap my free hand around his neck, before falling or something, still holding the shampoo in the other hand.

"Where you going to wash your hair?" Edward asks me, smiling sweetly at me while pointing at the bottle I'm holding.

"Well.."

I was actually just holding this bottle because Alice touched it, too.

"Yes. I love the smell of this shampoo." I answer him, not lying.

Edward takes the bottle from my hands.

Ouch..

"Let me.." he sighs against my ear.

A shiver runs through my body. Gently, he wipes the shampoo off my hand, into his, and rubs it between his hands before spreading it through my hair. Immediately I smell Alice's scent again. Another shiver runs down my spine.

"You like this?" Edward asks me.

God yes, Edward. If you only knew..

I nod and look into his golden eyes. They are filled with love and care, for me.

Surely I'm going to pay for this.. sometime..

Edward's hands are still rubbing the shampoo through my hair when I suddenly push him against the cold shower wall. Of course, he doesn't notice the cold but looks me in my eyes. Before he can even think of saying something I press my lips against his, hard. A groan erupts from Edward's throat and I feel his length growing harder against my lower stomach. I slide my hands from his cheek down to his stomach, circling my fingers around his belly button.

"Bella, fuck.." Edward moans and I kiss him harder, more passionate. My tongue dances with his and I close my eyes to surrender more to my feelings.

If only that was a good idea..

Behind my closed eyelids I see Alice, standing with me in the shower, instead of Edward. Her hands trace down my back, resting on my bottom. Her perfect golden eyes look into mine and I lean my head towards her face, pausing inches away from her lips.

"Kiss me, Bella.. I can't be away from you anymore.."

I lean in and kiss Alice's lips without hesitation.

"Damn, Bella. You are so perfect," Edward groans while his fingers press softly against my bottom.

I trace my fingers over his chest and see him shiver. Then, I grab his hard length firmly and start pleasing him. A low growl escapes his lips.
I close my eyes again while pleasing Edward, making him moan softly.

How would Alice sound if she moaned..

A tingling sensation bubbles up in my lower stomach and I start working on Edward faster, firmer. His hands grab my bottom harder, letting me know he enjoys it, a lot.

"Oh.. Edward.." I moan.

Thank god I said the right name..

Tears well up in the corners of my eyes, rolling down before I can react to wipe them. Thankfully the shower makes it look like usual water falling down my cheeks. Edward still has his eyes closed.

"Bella, I think Alice is waiting for you.. We've been in here for almost half an hour, you know?" He smirks at me, making me blush and stare at my feet with guilt.

"We can shower for longer next time, Bella. It's ok."

I nod at him and fake a smile. All the guilt hits me in the face and I'm not sure how to act normal.

I can't let it show..

We step out of the shower and Edward wraps a towel around me.

"Have fun today, Bella. It's great that you and my sister get along so well." He smiles at me and kisses my cheek softly. "Tell Alice to take care of you, for me please."

"Of course, Edward. And you know I'm perfectly safe with Alice." I smile back at him and wrap my arms around his neck. It's hard to keep tears from appearing in my eyes, but I try.

"I'll miss you, Edward," I sigh, while one tear escapes from my eyes..

Damn tears..

"Bella, are you ok? I'm always close, you know I'm right here waiting for you to return. It's just one day with Alice. I'm sure you'll have a great time.."

I look into his eyes and feel a burning pain in my chest.

See here, my punishment.

"Really, Bella. It's just one day.." Edward closes his arms around my waist and presses me hard against his chest.
Slowly, I let go of him and he lets me out of his hold. I kiss him on his lips and look into his eyes once more.

"I love you, Edward.." I whisper.

"I love you, forever, Bella."

He kisses me gently and then walks out of the bathroom. I follow him out and then slowly walk over to Alice's room.

"Bella! Gosh, that took ages! Get dressed quickly so we can finally get going." She winks at me and sits down on her bed.

I blush while looking at her, almost too shy to get out of my towel in front of Alice. For a moment she looks at me, then turns her head away to face the wall.

"It's okay, Bella. I won't look if you're uncomfortable."

I feel my face flush even more and quickly drop the towel on the floor.

Am I imagining that I heard Alice gasp..?

I put on the dress that Alice chose for me this morning, and quickly put on my shoes.

"Done," I whisper, knowing she can hear me.

Before I can blink she has turned to face me and her mouth is agape. My face surely must look like a tomato right now, and I giggle nervously.

"Bella.. you look.." Alice starts. "You.. Look like a girl!" She starts to laugh really loud.

Wow, did she always laugh like this, or did I just never notice how perfect it sounds?

"Joking,' she winks at me.

I can't help but laugh with her. She's right. I always look a little boyish.
Quickly I dry my hair and put on some chap stick before putting my jacket on. Of course, not my own jacket, but one out of Alice's closet. It's a grey jacket with black buttons. I already love it.

It smells so good.. Like Alice..

"Ready?" Alice's asks.

I look at myself in the mirror and see myself blushing. A nervous chill runs through my veins and I look myself in the eyes.

Seriously, what could happen with Alice? It's just a normal day of shopping. Like we always do..

With those words echoing in my mind I turn to face Alice and nod at her.

"Let's go shopping!" I say sarcastically, smirking at her.

We both walk to the bedroom door and I accidentally bump into her when all of a sudden she stops in the doorway. Without saying anything she stares into my eyes, and I can only stare back. Then, she turns around and continues walking.

Why did she do that?

Quickly she walks downstairs, through the house, then outside to her car. I get in the passengers seat and put my seatbelt on.

Ready for another day with Alice..
