We would like to apologize in advance for the shortness of this chapter. We are going on a trip soon to visit some family. We wanted to get this out before then though.

Chapter 3: Snowflakes and Skirts

"God she smelled so good guys!" I said from my spot in the back of the car. Rose chuckled as Alice rolled her eyes.

"I mean I guess...if you like pineapple" Alice agreed, but shrugged after causing me to glare at her. That Luna chick had been the number one thing on my mind. Her short black hair the fell over one of her deep blue eyes. The way she would unconciously pull her lip piercings between her teeth. Her slender yet built frame.

"Geez Bella calm down, or I'll make you walk." Rose said from her spot in the drivers seat. One of her hands was clasped over her mouth and nose.

I smiled sheepishly, thoroughly embarassed knowing they could smell my arousal. "Sorry."

"Like hell you are." Alice mumbled while crossing her arms. I rolled my eyes and soon we were pulling into the driveway of our house. The minute we pulled up we could hear Emmett and Jasper arguing over the game. Edward had decided to move in with the Denali sisters after my turning. He didn't take the news well that I wasn't his "destinied one" as he put it.

Alice jumped on my back and I stumbled forward a bit, she giggled bouncing on my back. Rosalie chuckled at my perdicament. We walked in the house and everyone looked up from what they were doing long enough to say hi.

"So...how's Luna?" Esme asked cheekily as I deposited Alice onto the couch.

I gave her a look and she just shrugged, looking oh so innocent. Lies."We didn't even go see her today. So I wouldn't know." I plopped down on the couch next to Carlisle who had Esme sat perched in his lap, his arms wrapped around her waist. Aww they'd be together forever.

"Oh yeah! I almost forgot. Bella, Rosalie guess what?" Alice asks bouncing slightly. What a little cheerful ball of bleh. But I love her though.

"What Alice?"

"So...there's this new fashion expo." She informed matter of factly. Rose and I exchanged twin looks. Of course we knew what this meant. Endless shopping. Being immortal still doesn't change my love of shopping, I can tell you that.

"Oh um...that's great information..." Rosalie stated as she leaned against Emmett. I almost felt bad for Alice when she started to pout. Almost.

"Oh come one guys! No one ever goes anywhere with me." Her bottom lip poked out slightly and she crossed her arms. She was relentless and wouldn't stop with the guilt-tripping any time soon.

"Oh Alice. I'll go with you." Jasper piped in from his spot on the floor.

"Jasper. No offense sweetie, but sometimes I just need some girl time." Alice put her hand on Jasper's shoulder who just laughed and shook his head.

"Yeah right. 'Girl Time'. What you raeally mean is 'Obsessed Fashonista Time'. Just admit it." I commented and Emmett gave a loud laugh, and I held my hand up as his stone one high fived me. Ow.

"Hardy Har. You are a comic genius. Seriously guys please." This time she looked me dead in my eyes. Oh god. She knew how touchy I was when it came to eye contact. It felt as thought she was staring into my very being and it burned. I looked over to Rosalie who sighed and ran a hand through blonde tresses.

"When is it?"

...

Carla and Cassie had been non-stop talking about this stupid clothing expo thing that was coming to town. It burned my damn ears having to hear them go on and on.

"Luna you have to come with us." Is what I heard when I tuned back in to the conversation. My eyebrows shot up to my hair.

"I have to do what?"

"Come with us to the expo. They have this new series coming out. The skirts are absolutely to die for. the design is based off-"

"No no no!" I cut off Cassie, waving my hands in front of me. "I don't care about what you are about to say. I just want to say that now."

Cassie huffed and rolled her eyes and turned to Carla who started to pout. Oh god please not this.

"But...but baby. Do you know how rare it is that you go anywhere that I want to go? It's just this one expo. And it's one time only. So please please please." She drew out the last please and clasped her hands together under her chin and looked at me, her bottom lip poking out and quivering slightly. I knew I had to look away or I'd cave. I looked away only to find Cassie sporting a similar expression. No. No Luna not this time. It's simple. Just one little word and your problem will go away.

"Okay." Dammit! Both girls squealed and jumped on me, very nearly collapsing my lungs. Awkwardly I patted their backs before they pulled away.

"Thank you so much Luna! It's next Tuesday so wear your best." Though Cassie made it seem like a suggestion. I knew I had no option. The red head and the latina could be very scary and very persuasive. I shuddered at the thought as both girls disappeard to the backyard. I rolled my eyes and pulled out my phone when it vibrated in my pocket.

1 New Message

Eli: What the hell sis? Why did I get a call saying you busted up your shop?

I rolled my eyes when I realized my boss had called my brother. What a nosey little prick that man was.

Me: Really dude, you think I would do that?

My phone vibrated a second later.

Eli: I don't know. You are capable of a lot of shit.

I scoffed as I typed my reply.

Me: Yeah. I'd wreck the one place that pays me.

The phone was silent for a moment and I knew he was thinking about it.

Eli: That...makes sense. After all, it was your boss that called me. Ugh just call me. I hate texting!

I rolled my eyes and dialed my brothers number. It rang a few times before he picked it up.

"Atlanta City Morgue. My name is Jeff. How may I assist you." His deep voice filtered throught the speaker of my phone.

"You really should stop answering the phone like that. What if I had called to tell you someone had died? Then the joke would be in poor taste." I pointed out as I sat down on the couch. He guffawed loudly on the other end, causing me to hold the phone away from my ear.

"Oh please. Our family is much to resilient and stubborn to die."

"If you say so. So why the hell am I just now hearing from you you fucking brute." I scowled as I thought about my older brother. He was just like me. Except 6'6. Male. Muscular and an idiot. Wow. I take that back. How are we related again?

"I just got back from Cabo snowflake. I sent you a letter. Guess it got lost." I scowled at his nickname and flipped through the TV channels. 600 channels and the only decent thing is SpongeBob. Cable was a fucking joke.

"I got the stupid letter, but that was so long ago. And what did I tell you about calling me snowflake?" He had taken to calling me that ever since I had accidentally dyed my hair white when we were kids. Mom yelled. Dad laughed, Eli laughed. And I cried about it for weeks.

"Oh it's all in good fun. Hey I gotta go soon, but I just wanted to tell you that dad wants to talk to you. I was just on my way to see him. Apparently there's stuff he wants to tell both of us." I heard a car swerve in the back ground and Eli curse quietly.

"Alright I will. And focus on the road moron. I can see the headline now 'Neanderthal tries to use phone and drive, scientists are baffled'." I could practically hear him rolling his eyes over the phone.

"Whatever snowflake. I'll talk to you later. Love you."

"Love you too sasquatch." We hung up and I could feel tears stinging the backs of my eyes. God it's been forever since I've been home. I miss it so much. I definitely have to plan a trip soon. I looked out the back patio doors. Of course after the hell those two giggling demons are going to put me through.

Hope you enjoyed. Don't forget to review. It means a lot to us. -Niya & Skye

P.S. One internet hug to anyone that can guess the reference in this chapter here. Not super obvious, but I giggled when I wrote it in. -Skye
