Hi everyone! I'm really sorry about the long wait, but report cards were given out this week and I had alot of tests. This is the second chapter of The Foreigners (as you probably already know) and I hope you like it! :) Please review later if you have time and tell me if I should add any additional changes to it or anything. Oh! Yeah, I was debating on whether I should make a chapter in Edwards POV or not and then I was like, Oh! I can ask you guys if you want to or not, so, please tell me. Thanks so much! :) In case you were wondering, the characters in this story will be ALL HUMAN!
Bella's POV (A day later from Mike's party)
I was driving along the road towards the Cullen's house when I entered the woods. I got all panicky for a second because I was scared of anything that might try to eat me, but then I thought that if there was anything out there, the Cullen's probably wouldn't but this house. It was pretty dark for a couple of minutes and the only sounds were the tires of my truck and birds. Then, I drove out into the open and saw this huge mansion. And when I mean huge, I mean HUGE!
There was a red convertible, a black Mercedes, a yellow Porsche, and the silver Volvo I saw on Thursday parked near the garage. I wondered why they didn't use the garage. I winced a little as I compared their cars and mine. My truck seemed extremely crappy compared to those cars. I mean, I know that my truck was always crappy, but it never stood out as bad as this because almost everyone's car in Forks was pretty, I guess... crappy, you know.
I hesitantly climbed the steps leading up to the front door and almost tripped over the welcome mat they had. I paused before ringing the doorbell. I hoped that Alice would answer the door. I heard running footsteps and then the door was flung open.
"Hi Bella! I am so glad you came! Here, let me introduce you to my family, and then we can start picking out your outfit. And what the heck are you wearing?" I blushed and then started laughing. I had a feeling I would like the Cullens.
She led me towards their living room, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Everyone stop what you're doing and come to the living room right this second. I have someone I want you to meet. I blushed again.
A voice answered,"And what will happen if we don't come?" I recognized that voice. It belonged to Edward. Who else would have such a beautiful voice?
Alice answered, "I'll take away your whole CD set. So, you better hurry up!"
A beautiful blonde came into the room. "Hi Bella, nice to meet you. I'm Rosalie." Rosalie had this demeanor that said, don't mess with me, or you're dead. "Rosalie!," Alice yelled," I thought I was supposed to introduce you guys, not you!" I chuckled despite myself.
"So Bella, this is my older brother Emmett's girlfriend Rosalie." She gave Rosalie a glare. "And Rosalie, this is Bella"
"Pleased to meet you Rosalie." I was busy meeting Rosalie, that I didn't notice the rest of the family had come in also.
"Hi Bella, I'm-" A big, burly guy began saying before Alice cut him off.
"So Bella, this is my older brother Emmett." She announced before whispering to me, "And he's really annoying sometimes." "Alice... I heard that!" yelled Emmett. He proceeded to swing at her, but she ducked and started giggling.
"Ahem." Someone cleared their throat. Alice straightened herself.
"Okay, so this is Edward, my youngest brother, he's the one who likes all those CD's." Edward stepped forward and shot me a dazzling smile before saying, "Nice to meet you again." He took my hand, kissed it and then joined the rest of the group. I was probably blushing a thousand shades of red by now. One look at Alice told me all I needed to know. She was trying her hardest not to laugh.
Another person walked forward to meet me. He was tall with blonde hair like Rosalie. "Bella, this is my boyfriend Jasper. He and Rosalie are twins." Ah, I thought.
An older woman strolled forward. Looking at her, I could see much of some of Alice's features in her, so I guessed she was their mom. "Bella, this is my mom."
Alice's mom replied, "Pleased to meet you. Please call me Esme, dear." I immediately liked her.
"And now, this is my dad." She gestured to a tall blonde man. "Hi Bella, I'm very pleased to meet you. I've heard so many things about you from Alice." He said. "Thanks Mr. Cullen." I replied while also blushing.
"You can just call me Carlisle, Bella." "Okay"
"Now Bella, we can finally go up to my room to find some clothes for you. Here Rosalie, if you want to help dress Bella up, you can come too." Alice said. "Sure" said Rosalie.
"Wait a minute... I thought you said you were only going to help me pick clothes for tomorrow, you didn't say you were dressing me up!" I practically yelled. "Geesh Bella, chillax!," Alice replied to me with a smirk, "I have a feeling you'll love this." "Or not" I mumbled.
Ugh... I could only imagine what Alice had in store for me. We climbed up the steps and entered a big hallway. There were three doors. "Um Alice, is it okay if I ask you why there are only three doors here?" I asked her.
She patiently replied, "The first door on the left opens up to Carlisle and Esme's bedroom and bathroom. If you open the second door, it will lead you to a different hallway with two doors. The first door is Edward's and the second is Emmett's. They each have their separate bathrooms. The last door is mine."
She opened up the door and we entered a small hallway. She told me and Rosalie to wait for a second while she went into her bedroom and got the makeup.
"Uh..hi Rosalie" I said awkwardly to her. "Hi." She said back
Ugh! This was definitely turning out awkward. "Are you in your senior year?" I asked her. "No. I'm in my junior year. I'm guessing that you're in your sophomore year. Am I correct?" "Yeah."
Just then Alice came bounding back. "Hey guys, look what I found!" She held up a white and blue tassel bikini. The top showed too much. "Bella, you'll look great in this, I just know."
"Alice, if you are making me wear that thing, you are so wrong." Alice started to pout. Her puppy dog eyes begged me. Ugh! Bella, don't fall for it... don't fall for it.
"Fine Alice, but on one condition. If I don't look good in it, or if it shows too much, I am NOT wearing it! Okay? Oh and if I somehow end up wearing it to the party, you and Rosalie have to wear something similar "
"Okay," She squealed, "Bella, you are the best!" Then she turned around to look at Rosalie." Is that okay with you, Rose?" Rosalie nodded, "Sure"
Alice handed me the bikini and she led me to the other door. She opened the door and inside was the biggest bathroom I have ever seen before. I reluctantly stepped inside and started to change. When I was done, I looked in the mirror.
Hmm... I thought it's not that bad.
"Are you done yet Bella?" asked Alice. "Yeah" I answered back.
"Open the door so we can see." said Rose. "Fine"
I opened the door and feeling self-conscious, walked out. "See Bella, it's not that bad. I already picked out me and Rose's bikini's while you were in there." She held up two tassel bikinis. The first one, which I guessed was Alice's since she was so petite, was light pink. The second one, which I was pretty sure was Rose's was lime green.
"Yeah Bella, you kinda look hot in that. Now all we have to do tomorrow is put some waterproof makeup on you." Rosalie said.
Ugh! I almost groaned aloud.
Just my luck right then, the boys came.
"Hey Alice, dad said that you should-" Edward was saying before looking at me. His eyes were literally bugging out of his socket. Jasper and Emmett caught up, and they started cat-calling and whistling.
"ALICE! YOU FORGOT TO CLOSE THE DOOR!" I yelled while turning a million shades of red from embarrassment. I ran to the bathroom and shut the door. I hid my face in my hands. I suddenly heard a couple of thwacks.
"I"m sorry Bella, but they should have knocked. See, me and Rose even hit them for you. Please come out Bella."
"Fine, Alice. Can I hit them a couple of times too?" I asked
"Sure Bella." Rose and Alice replied in unison. I've only known them for a couple of hours, but I felt like I've known them forever. I took off the bikini and put on my regular clothes.
I walked out towards where Emmett, Jasper, and Edward were standing. I walked over to Emmett first and punched him lightly on the shoulder. "Don't do that ever again." I said. I walked over to Jasper next and did the same thing. Finally, I walked over to Edward somewhat hesitantly. I repeated the same process that I did with Emmett and Jasper, only this time my face was flaming red.
"Okay, now all of you guys, OUT!" Alice yelled at them. "But Alice," Edward began, "dad told me to tell you that he and mom are going out for a shopping trip, and they wanted to know if you wanted to come ."
"Oooh! Yes!" Alice screamed with joy. "We're taking Bella also."
"Alice, you don't have to-" I started saying before Alice cut me off. "No, it's okay. We are going to buy you some new clothes for that closet of yours. I just have a feeling we are going to have so much fun!"
"For you, but not for me" I mumbled.
So, how do you like the story so far?
Alice is taking Bella shopping and Bella is now going to see the full extant of Alice's clothing obsession. Ha Ha I feel bad for Bella.
Please review and have a good day! :)
