sorry there's no Edward in this one i promise he's in the next one and once again I only own Ishbel and her family everything else belongs to Stephanie Meyer
We had bought some paint, some red covers and bed sheets (not all bed sheets red), some pillows and pillow cases, and also ordered a refrigerator. My mom and I decided to head to the small bookstore that was around the corner while dad went to the small karate dogo that was nearby. I walked into the video section. As I looked I saw the 1st season of Moonlight (Note: real TV show by the way, very good). It was a very good show and I never got a chance to watch it when it was on TV. I looked at the price and saw it was only 15$ probably because it was on sale. As I was walking I passed by the music section and saw a very pale looking girl. She looked like she could've been my age; though I've been wrong before. She was skinny, had unnaturally pale skin, and she had black hair that went to her chin and spiked out at the ends (Sorry bad at describing her hair). She looked like she could have been a model, and she had a cute appearance with her height that made her look like a pixy. She was wearing a pair of very nice black jeans, a white button up blouse with a black vest over it, a pair of one inch high heeled black shoes. She put back the CD back she turned and faced me.
"Hey you must be new girl and town, Ishbel Holloway right?" the girl asked holding her hand out.
"Yeah how did you know?" I asked shaking her hand.
I gasped at the electric shock I got from her cold touch. She immediately pulled her hand back and said "I'm sorry, and it's a small town so it'll be easy to know that you're new. Oh I'm Alice Cullen."
"It's nice to meet you. Hay your father wouldn't happen to be Carlisle Cullen would it?"
"Yeah he is why do you ask?"
"Because my dad is supposed to be working with him."
I then noticed that while she spoke to me it looked like she was trying to resist for some reason.
"So I take it you're going to be going to Forks High School right?" Alice asked.
"Yeah, I start Tuesday sense apparently you guys are having a three day weekend. Aren't your feet cold, I mean just wearing heels?" I asked hoping she wasn't cold.
"Oh no, I guess I'm just one of those people who can't feel the cold" she said smiling.
"I didn't mean to offend you or anything, I just hoped you weren't getting cold."
"No offense taken."
Just then a cell phone went off and without even looking at the id she answered it.
"Hello Edward."
They then talked for a couple of minuets and they were speaking so fast I couldn't hear a word they were saying. The only thing I think I heard from the other line was "Be careful." But apart from that I couldn't hear anything. She then hung up.
"Sorry that was my brother Edward, letting me know that he's almost here to pick me up."
"Ah, Edward and you are supposed to be the same age right?" I asked.
"Yeah why?" she asked.
"I guess I just got confused on what Bella said."
"You know Bella?"
"I just met her, I live right next to her and her dad."
Just then a car honked from outside. Through the window I saw a silver Volvo parked in the parking lot in the space in front of the window.
"I got to go, and I can already tell we're going to be best friends" she said before turning on her heel and gracefully walking out of the store.
I then watched as the silver Volvo sped out.
'Strange' I thought.
"Hey dear did you find anything, and who was that that you were talking to?" my mom asked coming up behind me.
"Alice Cullen daughter of Carlisle Cullen, she's going to Forks High as well" I said.
"Ah, she seemed nice, maybe you and her can become friends, and you'll have a friend for a change" mom said.
"I hope so, oh and mom can I get this?" I asked showing her the box set.
She took it and looked at and said "Of course."
We paid for a couple of things before picking up dad. Once we picked him up we went to go find a place for lunch, seeing as it was noon already. After getting some lunch we went to the florist to get some flowers for the front yard. After we got some roses and other flowers we decided to go home. While my dad was out he also managed to get someone to come and put tiles in. We went into my room and changed the mattress and put the sheets and covers on it. As we kept working it was soon 6:00 and so we ordered Chinese food. Over the rest of the weekend we put tiles in, painted the walls which Bella came over and helped and we got to know each other better, and got everything we needed. The house was now complete with a microwave, refrigerator, and other accessories. We soon got the house exactly the way we wanted it. I also got some new clothes and supplies for school (her dad made and saved a lot of money from his two jobs). We stood inside the doorway and stared at a job well done. Tomorrow was my first day of school.
