(FORKS!)
Alice, Bella and Rosalie were gathered in the Cullen’s spacious living room. Though there was more than enough room for the girls to spread out, all three of them had crammed themselves onto the loveseat.
Even though she could see the computer screen clearly from her position on the far left side of the loveseat, Rosalie still felt the need to ask in a very whiny voice,
“Is it up yet?”
“No Rose,” Alice sighed, clicking the ‘Refresh’ button again.
“What’s taking so long?” Bella wondered, examining the printout version of the Celeb-o-Meter polls from the last three weeks.
“Have you tried refreshing it?” Esme asked, taking a seat on the Lay-z-boy recliner next to the loveseat.
“Yes Esme,” Alice said cheerfully, “I’m refreshing it every ten seconds.”
Sure enough, exactly ten seconds from the last time she refreshed, Alice clicked the refresh button.
Being the first to fully comprehend the new results that suddenly appeared on the screen, Bella let out a bloodcurdling scream.
“I knew it!” Alice cried, pumping her fist triumphantly in the air. Rosalie didn’t share everyone else’s jubilation. Though Edward had finally risen to the top position in the polls, she had yet to appear on the list.
Drawn by Bella’s scream; Jasper, Emmett, Edward and Carlisle were down the stairs and in the living room at the speed of vampire.
“Does anyone know why my inbox is suddenly flooded with hate mail from Hogwarts students? Or why they are calling me Cedric?” Edward asked, as the other males joined their lady friends in front of Alice’s laptop.
“Congratulations Ed,” Emmett grinned, punching his brother in the arm as hard as he could, “you are officially more popular than Harry Potter!”
“That explains the hate mail,” Edward mused, absent mindedly rubbing the place were Emmett had punched him.
“Hey!” Bella said suddenly; as fast as she comprehended some things, she was a little slow at others. “I’m dating the most popular man alive- I mean Undead!”
“Very good Bella,” Jasper said sarcastically, slapping a metallic star-shaped sticker on her forehead, “you get a gold star!”
Bella glared at him, but made no move to remove the sticker.
“So, Edward, how does it feel to be the most popular man on Earth?”
“A little bit constipated,” Edward admitted, “I probably shouldn’t have eaten that cookie Emmett dared me to eat, I think I might be sick.”
“I think Alice is having a vision,” Rosalie said in the monotonous voice she often used when she wasn’t the center of a conversation.
Sure enough, Alice was staring straight ahead as if focusing on something in the far distance.
“Edward has some competition.”
