Chapter 19
BPOV
I met Edward down in the main room. He was dressed in a black tux with a white shirt on underneath and a black tie. He looked gorgeous, of course. He had Sophie in his arms, who was nibbling on his fingers. They were cold and it helped while her teeth grew in.
Alice and Rose had me in Alice's bathroom all day playing Bella Barbie. I had been poked and prodded for three hours. Why? Because I was going to prom.
I know what your thinking. Why is that clumsy girl going to prom? Well, Edward had turned his dazzling, golden eyes on me and I gave in. Charlie thought I was going with Alice and Rose because he can't know about Edward.
I was in a dress that was white and teal. It had a zebra and cheetah print pattern. The stripes and dots were teal while the back part was white. It was a halter dress and stopped at mid-thigh. It made my cleavage look awesome and it hugged me in all the right places. My hair was down in big curls. Alice had me in teal four inch death traps. (link on profile)
Alice had a strapless dress on. Hers was so Alice. The top was black with small gems on it. It had pink fabric separating the top and bottom. The bottom was white, black, and pink. It had a tiger print on it. Her hair was in its normal spiky do. She had on at least a six inch black heel shoe. (link on profile)
Rose was gorgeous, as always. Rose's dress was strapless, also. The top looked exactly like a cheetah print. There was red fabric separating the top and bottom with a small buckle on it. The bottom was a whole bunch of thin, ruffled fabric. It was brown on top, tan under that, and a small silk-like layer underneath. She was wearing stilettos that were about five inches. Her hair was curly like mine, but half way up and half way down. (link on profile)
Alice wanted us all to have some sort of animal print on our dress. Alice and Rose looked gorgeous and I felt plain standing next to them.
Alice and Rose walked down the stairs before me, and joined their partners. I peeked around the corner, hiding my body behind the wall, and looked down the stairs at them. Edward was smiling up at me, waiting for me to come down. He had Sophie in his arms.
"Come down, Bella!" Alice said, smiling at me. Everyone, including Esme and Carlisle, turned to look where I was hiding.
"Alice, you put me in death traps! I'm going to kill myself! Or worse, someone else!" I said. Alice rolled her eyes.
"I've already seen it, Bella. You won't trip. Now come on or we'll be late," she said. I hesitated. One thing I've learned since finding out the Cullens were vampires, is never bet against Alice.
I bit my lip and shyly moved from behind the wall. I heard gasps, but kept my eyes on my feet, willing myself not to trip. When I reached the floor, I looked up at Edward.
His mouth was hanging open, eyes wide. I blushed when Emmett, being Emmett, let out a loud wolf whistle. Rose smacked him in the back of the head, and Edward growled at him. It was kind of sexy.
Edward then turned to me and smiled that crooked smile at me. I smiled back shyly.
"You look beautiful," he said.
"Oh, Bella! You're so beautiful! All my girls are! Come on, picture time!" Esme said.
We took a picture of all six of us together, while Carlisle held Sophie. We did couple pictures; one with me and Edward; then one with me, Edward, and Sophie. All the boys took one together, then one with all the girls. After I was officially blinded, we headed off for the school. Forks High couldn't afford an expensive hotel, so they had to hold it in the gym.
Before leaving, Edward and I kissed Sophie by. A few days earlier, Sophie said her second word, "Mama." Charlie was a little concerned about her saying, "Dada," and I played the part of a sad, single mother. He couldn't know Edward was actually alive. Well, in that sense of the word 'alive.'
Edward and I took the Volvo, Alice and Jasper took Alice's Porsche, and Emmett and Rose took Rose's BMW. We pulled into a parking spot and Edward got my door before I could blink. We started towards the gym, the other couples ahead of us.
"I can't believe you're making me do this," I said. He chuckled.
"Prom is an important right of passage. I don't want you missing it," he said, looking down at me.
"Oh," I said with a smile.
We got our picture taken and headed inside. The music was loud and there were tons of people dancing on the dance floor. Alice and Rose came up to me.
"Come on, Bella! Let's dance!" Alice shouted over the music.
They pulled me away from Edward, who went and stood by Emmett and Jasper.
"Not in these shoes!" I said.
Rose rolled her eyes before bending down and taking the shoes off my feet. She tossed them by hers and Alice's and pulled me to the dance floor. They started dancing and I stood there awkward. It's not that I couldn't dance, I was just shy about it.
"Come on, Bella! Don't be shy!" Rose said.
I laughed and took her advice. I started dancing with them. "Tik Tok" by Ke$sha came on and we laughed crazily. I couldn't stop laughing.
I guess the boys got bored because they came over to us on the dance floor. Emmett and Jasper came up behind Rose and Alice and started dancing with them. I felt two cold arms around my waist and smiled. I turned to see Edward smiling down at me. I smiled at him and put my arms around his neck and kept dancing. We all laughed as Emmett started doing the robot. Or at least tired. 'Tried' being the key word.
When a slow song named, "U Smile" by Justin Bieber came on, I wrapped my arms around Edward's neck. I laid my head on his chest and he laid his head on top of mine.
"Are you enjoying yourself?" he asked. I smiled.
"Yes. Thank you for dazzling me into coming. I'm having so much fun," I said. Edward laughed at the use of my word 'dazzling.'
"Good. I wanted you to take a break from being the teenage mother tonight and be a teenager again," he said. I smiled and laid my head back on his chest.
When they played another fast song, Edward and I made our escape. I grabbed my shoes and we headed outside. We sat down on a cement bench and looked up the sky.
"It's beautiful out here," I said. Tonight, it was clear for once, and you could see the stars.
"It's alright. But not with you here in comparison," Edward said. I looked at him and smiled. He leaned in and kissed me. I felt like a princess with her prince. I felt like everything was perfect. But our perfect moment won't last long.
So...I know Bella was a little OOC with the dancing part, but I was kinda tired of the Bella that couldn't dance. Everyone does her that way, so I made her a little different there. So...1 MORE WEEK UNTIL ECLIPSE COMES OUT! EEPP! I'm excited! Last night, I got Remember Me on Demand (I also saw it in theaters)! And I forgot how sad it was! I've watched it 3 times since I've got it (I burned it on a DVD) and I've cried each time! I got my sister 2 watch it and not 2 minutes into the movie she suddenly screams out, "Okay! I give up! I'm going to be both Team Edward and Team Jacob! He's just so hot!" haha! She was Team Jacob (idk why!) but know she's finally admitted that Edward is hot! We actually got in a fight about it last night, but now look at her! Falling all over Edward now! And all it took was her to watch 2 minutes of Remember Me! When it got 2 the sad part (I'm not revealing the end for those who haven't seen it) she was like, "NO! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!" haha, all I said was, "Welcome to the Team Edward side!" Hehe, I love the part when he goes, "Why do you have an ashtray?" and the lady goes, "It's a bowl. It completes the room." and then he goes, "Well, I guess it was just here to tease me!"...and I like the part where Ally says to Aiden, "You're the assoholic!" haha! That part gets me every time! So I'm ready for Eclipse! Hopefully we'll get to see another shirtless Edward! If it stays true to the book, we should during the scene on the bed when Bella wants to have sex! haha! Thank you, Bella! She's the one who's suppose to strip him! O_o I can't wait for Breaking Dawn! But we have 2 wait a year and a half! UGH! And that's just for the 1st half! I want it 2 be 1 movie! Yes, they would get a lot more covered in 2, but we have 2 wait longer for the best part! Edward Daddy Time! I wouldn't mind going 2 see a 3 hour movie! Especially since it would be a Twilight 3 hour movie! I would get my money's worth! I survived going 2 see the Dark Knight, trust me when I say I would LOVE 2 see a 3 hour Twilight movie! That would be just a little piece of heaven for me! So, review! Love you guys! Next time I update, it'll probably be after I see Eclipse, so I can gush over it with you guys! EEPP! I'm ready!
