So don’t hate me!! I know it’s been months and months and months since I’ve last posted, but I really wanted to post again and give you all something. Review? If you all haven’t given up on me? That would be lovely…

Remember Alice’s promise about my outfit not being over-the-top? She lied. Big time.

“Bel-laaa!” Alice whined at me as I went through my clothes trying to find something else to wear. I would never be able to pull off that outfit. I was confident, not foolish.

“No Alice. You can’t make me.” I turned to her, my eyes stubborn.

“Wanna bet?” She took off running at me, the outfit clutched firmly in her hands. The look in her eyes was actually scaring the crap out of me. She really wanted me to wear this outfit. We ran around the dorm for about ten minutes, throwing things to the floor climbing over beds, anything we could.

“Alice! Calm down right now! I’ll sick my cousin and your brother on you! Get away from me!” I ran into the bathroom and locked the door behind me. Geez Louise that girl could run!

“Bella, check the closet in there.” Alice said though the door. I was almost afraid as I opened it, seeing Rosalie holding a duplicate of the dreadful outfit Alice was currently holding on the other side of the door.

“ARE YOU FRICKING KIDDING ME YOU GUYS?!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. Okay, so I was being a little dramatic, but I really did NOT want to wear that outfit!

“Bella. You are going to wear this outfit. You are going to look beautiful in it. You are going to like it. Period.” Said Rose with so much authority I was afraid to disobey her. She knew it too and smiled while shoving the outfit into my arms and walking out the door. I shook my head while attempting to get into this God-forsaken dress and high-heeled shoes. Curse them. Seriously with friends with these girls who needs enemies??

They walked in and sat me on the toilet while Rose and Alice did my hair and makeup, with me fuming beneath them. They stepped back and smiled smugly when they were finished, thinking they’d done an amazing job. Well you know what after three or so hours, I better look like Ms. Freaking America’s worst nightmare. I stood up and looked in the full length mirror on the door, absolutely shocked at what I looked like.

My hair was done straight but pulled back lightly with a few stray strands coming down around my face, my make up was extremely light with just eyeliner and mascara with nothing else, they didn’t even use any foundation. Then I saw the dress. I think my jaw hit the floor in that moment, the dress was a dark purple color with a low cut box neck line with really thick straps that fit to almost my every curve and ended just above the knee, it fit like a glove and I’d never loved any other dress half as much. It was perfect! Then the shoes, oh those shoes. They were golden strappy high heels that matched my golden hoops and heart necklace I’d borrowed from Alice for tonight, with the way she was looking at me in them, I highly doubted she’d let me give them back.

I turned to Alice and Rose who were still just as smug as before.

“Close your mouth, bugs will fly in.” Rosalie teased as Alice laughed at my expression.

“So, I love you girls, really, I do, it’s ridiculous.” I gushed while smiling, they really had done such a good job. “But don’t you two have something else to be doing?”

They looked at each other, “Dress?” Alice asked.

“Check.” Rose answered

“Shoes?”

“Check”

“Make-up”

“Check”

“Jewelry?”

“Check”

“Satisfaction with our work?”

“Oh yea, definitely check.”

“Then no, we’re finished, unless you can think of something?” Alice asked me.

“Yea, how about your outfits? Your makeup? Your hair?” I asked as though it was the most obvious thing in the world.

A look of comprehension dawned across their faces and they took off buzzing around the room wondering whose shoes were where and which lipstick shade would match their dresses. Finally when they were ready I heard a knock at the door, “I’ll get it!” I called.

“NO!” Alice and Rose both shouted their faces panic-stricken.

“I mean, let me, I’m ready.” Covered Alice. I raised a suspicious eyebrow at her but let it go. I went into the next room trying to help Rosalie find her missing earring.

“Oh hey guys, come on in!” Alice welcomed our guests, who could that be?

“Thanks Ali” I know that voice. I know that voice! Why is he here?!

Oh wait, he’s coming tonight. I can’t believe I forgot!

But why would he be here so early? Alice was keeping something from me I could tell.

“Oh Aaalice. Get your butt in here now.” I hollered out towards where they were standing. I swear I heard Emmett and Edward chuckle.

“Yes dear Bella?” she asked all innocently. Yea right, totally not buying it.

“You didn’t tell me your dear brother was coming along for the ride tonight.” I said while clenching my smiling teeth.

“Huh, must have slipped my mind.” She shrugged.

“Bullshit. We’ve spent the past 5 hours with each other. Now open up buttercup.” I demanded.

Rosalie looked like she wanted to laugh, while Alice looked trapped.

“Well, I figured with how gorgeous you look tonight you could surprise Edward and you guys could get closer and .” She rushed the last part. I caught every word though. I couldn’t bring myself to be angry at her, it was just the way she was, there was no changing it.

“Fine Alice, just next time you plan on inadvertently hooking me out to your brother for the night, let the both of us know. I assume Edward isn’t aware of your little matchmaking escapade scheme?” She shook her head. Called it.

“Rose, are you ready yet?” She nodded and we headed out towards the guys. I saw Edward and my jaw dropped for the second time that day. His eyes caught mine and as he looked at me his jaw dropped too, I’m pretty sure he like what he saw too. He looked so gorgeously amazingly awesomely beautifully Edward. He had a white polo with a beater underneath it with stone washed jeans with holes in the knee. He was legit perfection. With the way he was looking at me, I could tell this was going to be an interesting night.
