Bella drove into the school parking lot, expecting the place to be packed. She was surprised to see it was almost empty. She must have left early today. She found a spot in sight of a bench, and turned off the trucks ignition. She hopped out, grabbing her bag and jacket and slammed the door closed behind her. The weather was overcast, and she shivered in the slight breeze. She pulled on her jacket and headed for the bench.
She sat down, pulling out her English books and a pen, ready to revise for the upcoming test Mr. Mason had planned, but her mind wouldnt stay on her work. She turned and let her eyes sweep the parking lot, but no one of interest had arrived yet. She sighed and looked back down at her book, although she was unable to concentrate on the task she had set herself. After a few minutes, she gave up entirely, and packed her books away. Instead she pulled out a notepad and doodled random patterns on the back page.

Alice smiled,, as she drove Edward Volvo from the garage,, apparently Edward was going hunting with Emmett and Jasper again today. None of the family had been hunting for over a week and now Edward and Jasper especially needed to go. She hated being apart from Jasper today was really going suck,, when Jasper wasn't with her it felt like she had a part of her missing. Bummer. Though she had Bella today,, maybe they could go shopping or something after school was finished. Bella needed to get some new clothes soon any way.
With in minutes she found herself pulling into the school parking lot. It was surprisingly empty,, considering the time at least.. though she had a good twenty five minutes before the bell would sound and they would all have to start making there way into the school buildings... Most people would start arriving soon. She missed being around her family,, god only knew were Rosalie was at. Probably arrive later in her BMW when she'd made herself look even more perfect... not that was really possible.
She jumped out of Edward's car,, as her eyes quickly scanned the parking lot for someone she knew or wanted to be around. She was again surprised that Bella's old Chevy Truck was parked up,, since when was Bella this early for school? since never really. Her eyes automatically jumped towards Bella,, garh. Did she never make herself look good for school. Or even try? apparently not. Alice meant Bella looked nice but she didn't try at all. "Bella" she squealed as she twirled toward Bella as a beaming smile spread across her face. "What you doing here so early?" she smiled. Before taking a seat on the bench opposite Bella. She glanced at the work she had in front of her. Damn,, English stuff. She dropped her small school bad on the floor beside her.

Bella glanced up just as Alice came dancing towards her. The Cullen's perfect grace never failed to surprise her, unsettle her even. She returned Alice's bright smile almost automatically. "Oh hey Alice!" she said in an equally as bright voice. It almost shocked her how happy she sounded, when just a moment ago she had felt merely okay. It was definitely Alice's happy go lucky personality rubbing off on her. Im not sure, I think Charlie must have left earlier. I usually time myself by his departure" she answered, honestly. Alice wasnt the only one who was shocked at Bella's early arrival. "What about you?" she asked, even though Alice was always earlier than her.
She watched as Alice dropped her little bag on the floor. It was a cute bag, but not quite Bella's style. She grabbed her books and things and shoved them into her own plain bag. She looked around again.The parking lot was fuller now, and Bella could see Mike Newton a little way off. She knew he wouldnt come and say Hi, not with Alice here, so she quickly turned back to face Alice. "Where is Rosalie?" She asked Alice. "She's usually here by now, isnt she? she opened her bag again, and pulled out her hairband, pulling her hair into a quick and scruffy ponytail. [/size]

Finally Bella seemed to be happier,, though that was a little weird as Edward wasn't here today. She when Jazz wasn't with her she nearly always felt a little depressed. Though she'd never let any one see it,, as that really just wouldn't be here at all. "You need to start timing your journeys better... like get a watch... oh.. oh... do you want me too buy you one sometime... i can know this perfect little shop in Port Angeles..." she drifted off one her sentence,, knowing her aversion to the Cullen's buying her things. She'd never been happy about that,, though they never stopped trying to buy her stuff. "you know i'm always here on time,, well i am when i'm on my own... Edward always takes ages to get himself ready for the day..." she snickered.
Rose? well she'd still be at home for a while,, clothes make-up… just being really really self-obsessed again "Oh you know... make-up... clothes... she takes ages to get ready longer than me really" her wind chime voice sounded out through the school grounds,, as a few people looked around at her,, she ignored them as normal,, as a lot of the guys and girl seemed to stare at her,, guys ‘cause they were crushing on her,, girls ‘cause they wanted to look like her. "You know you can go to the other kids if you want..." she knew none of them would come and talk to Bella while she was here. As apparently all the Cullen's were incredibly scary,, and unapproachable. Alice didn't see it though.
"Rose will be here later... Oh,, did Edward tell you when he was coming back from hunting?" Alice couldn't really see when he was coming back as none of them had made up there mind as to when they were coming back. And as always Alice would through some kind of welcome home party for them.

"First of all, Alice, NO WATCHES!, second, your like my sister Alice, my best friend. Im not going over to the other kids, if they wont come over, thats their loss" Bella said, a little louder than necessary. She flushed red, and ducked her head. She looked up and nodded when Alice said about Rosalie doing her hair and make up and so on. She didnt see why Rose would even need to do her make up, because in all honesty, she didnt need too. Rosalie was incredibly beautiful, and would look beautiful if she turned up to school in a bin bag. But Rose was also a little self obsessed, and Bella had no trouble believing she took longer than Alice in the bathroom.
When Alice asked if she knew when they were coming back from hunting, Bella looked at her,eyes narrowed. "Cant you see for yourself?" she asked,teasing her ever so slightly. She understood why they hadnt told her, and why they kept changing their mind to keep Alice from knowing. As nice an idea as it was, Bella wasnt sure if Edward could handle another Alice party. After her birthday, they had all avoided Alice parties as much as possible, but discretely, so they wouldnt hurt her feelings. "They didnt tell me,no" Bella answered honestly. They were obviously worried she would let slip to Alice. [/size]

But Bella would have looked so nice with a shiny new watch on her wrist. It would spend the rest of the day killing Alice that she couldn't buy a family member a piece of jewellery,, it was just a watch after all. It might help her keep time better,, as everyone knew she wasn't the best at the sometimes. Though she'd never be later for Edward,, that was something that didn't even seem to compute in Bella's mind... Edward equalled bliss to her,, and too Alice he just equalled a pain in the backside. "But a new watch would look really good on you... really? just a cheap one... i'll only spend up to... a two hundred dollar's on it Bella,, really cheap please" she pleaded with her sister,, she wanted to buy her a watch now. And well she wasn't going to just give up on it that easily.
"I wish i could see... but apparently no one is making up there mind about it... it sucks" she said in a very moan child like voice. She hated that none of them were letting her see when they would be coming home. Not even Edward had told Bella when they were coming home. Jeez,, what was the world coming too when Edward didn't want Alice to know so much he would keep it from his own mate -in vampire terms at least-. She needed to know what was going on with them,, it really wasn't fair. The most she could see was about an hour into there future... and that kept changing...
"You could always try and phone Edward for me... and ask... he'd tell you what ever you needed to know..." she asked,, Bella really was her last resort she didn't want to do it but hell,, she wanted to know. And Alice knew no limits when it came to finding information out.

Bella laughed at Alice's enthusiasm over the watch. She couldnt put Alice through that much pain so she agreed. "Fine, you can get me a watch. But not two hundred dollars Alice. Thats not cheap ! I think maybe, like, fifty dollars? thats cheap." Bella knew Alice wasnt going to settle for fifty. That was just in her nature. Bella would find it cute, if it wasnt her Alice wanted to constantly make over. She looked up at the heavy, overcast sky thoughtfully, her mind wondering constantly to Edward. She caught herself quickly, not wanting to depress herself.
She laughed at Alice's tone of voice when the coversation went to the boys hunting trip. Alice didnt like to be kept in the dark, especially when it prevented her from throwing a party. She looked at her carefully before speaking. "Well Ill call him, but later, not right now. I dont want to bother him this early. She left it there, not wanting to cry in front of Alice. She missed Edward desperately, like a part of herself was missing. [/size]

Fifty Dollars,, that amount of money barley registered to Alice. Fifty,, she could hardly buy anything with fifty. "A hundred Dollars... AND I get to give you a makeover?" she said,, as a happy go lucky tone escaped into her voice. She didn't want to annoy Bella with this,, but it had been so long since she'd got to dress Bella up. And well... it would be fun if she could. She knew Bella liked it deep down,, or at least she hoped she liked being man handled in to dresses and high heeled shoes that she hated. Hell,, Alice so no harm in doing that. It wasn't like she couldn't just go home if she wanted. She could just up and leave if she ever wanted too,, though Alice would normally use some sort of emotional black mail against her,, like saying if Bella really loved Alice she would let her do her make-up etc... "Bella... you want to ditch today? we can shopping or just go back to the house? no one will notice" it was common knowledge that the Cullen's ditched school occasionally,, and well if Bella went missing today now would care would they?
Bella wouldn't call Edward now. Annoying. She didn't want to push the matter at all,, 'cause she didn't want to upset Bella,, she knew what it was like to be apart from her loved one. Jasper,, it was like something was missing with her as well,, though she trusted Jasper enough to let her know as soon as something happened that wasn't entirely normal,, though he probably wouldn't call her until he had. He hated having to worry Alice,, as she hated having to worry him. "Bella,, really... he'll back soon-ish" she said as she could see the hurt that Edward being away from her was causing. She hated seeing Bella like this as much as everyone else in the family did. It must just have been like when Edward left her earlier that year... she shook her head. "Come on Bella we're going shopping" she said as she stood up from the table.
