Chapter Seven
"Great!" I exclaimed, exasperated. True to my klutzy form, I tripped over thin air, catching my backpack on the edge of my desk, tearing it open and spilling the contents out onto the floor.
"Here let me help," Edward offered, picking up most of my books. "You realize that this is a perfect excuse for Alice to take you shopping."
"What!"
"You need a new, sturdier backpack, love," he said holding up the remains of my bag.
I sighed, "I can get myself a new backpack."
"You know that won't stop her."
"Yeah."
We finished picking up my books and papers and headed for the parking lot. Alice met us on the way there.
"This weekend, Bella," she chimed as a way of greeting.
"Fine," I sighed. There was no getting around her. Alice squealed and jumped up and down on the spot, clearly happy.
Her happiness was short lived, however, as her vision went blank and her mouth dropped open in shock. "No," she whispered. "Dana."
Edward saw whatever Alice had seen and ran at a human pace for the parking lot. Alice snapped out of it and ran too. I found myself standing in a now empty campus, alone.
Something was wrong with Dana. Something that warranted Edward and Alice's help. In the parking lot. All I could think was, My friend is in danger! I ran to the parking lot.
