Chapter 2
“What is this? It looks like floss.” I held a black stringy thing between
my fingers that Alice had tossed at me.
“A thong. You wear it under skirts and dresses so you can hide the
outline of your underwear.” Rosalie explained.
“Oh,” I said in realization. That actually made sense. For girlie girls,
it’s supposedly embarrassing for your underwear to show.
I was attacked with many pieced of lingerie that made me blush. I
mean I wouldn’t wear these for someone would I? Alice had insisted that she
pay for the whole make over this weekend. And I didn’t object. She was
using her credit card so it would come out of our family’s bank account
either way.
We were now heading to the salon to give me a new and improved
hair cut. The place reeked of hair products and hair spray. Women were
getting hair cuts and talking about the gossip in the magazines in front of
them.
Alice and Rosalie were apparently tight with the stylists so we got me
into a chair right away. I got the only male stylist here. At least I know he
won’t get fresh with me because he’s gay. Seriously, lip gloss and mascara
is a big tip off.
The dude washed my hair and began to work on it expertly. I was
honestly afraid of how much hair that was falling to the floor, but I was
doing this for Edward, doing this for Edward. It was about 45 minutes later
when I was finished.
“There darling, you’re done.” He stepped back and let me look at his
work.
Alice and Rosalie joined the stylist behind me in the mirror.
“Very nice Deanna. I love the dark brown high lights, layers, and side
bangs. She looks hot.” Alice approved.
I blushed. I did look pretty.
“Thank you very much, we have to be going. We don’t want to be late
for our Mani’s and Pedi’s.” Rosalie gave air kisses to Deanna and then we
left after I thanked him as well.
The nail salon was actually a little relaxing. My Mani and Pedi were
being done at the same time so all I had to do was sit back and close my
eyes. I had picked out a pale and feminine pink that went nice with my ivory
skin tone. Alice and Rosalie were getting the same treatment as me.
“Are you sure he’s worth it Bella? I mean, how you look right now,
you could probably get any guy you wanted.” Rosalie said to me.
“Yes, I’m sure. He’s the one Rosalie.” I said softly as a white rose
was being stuck to my big toe.
The rest of the day was spent with more shopping. I wasn’t surprised
that I was tired when I came home. I flung my bags into my room and fell
into an exhausted heap onto my bed. Edward was worth it. He was worth
every make over, hair do, every shave of my legs. And when I walk through
the school front doors, I will finally capture his attention in the way I want
it.
Chapter 3
It was time for biology, the only class I had with Edward. I sat down
in my seat and waited nervously for him. He entered the room, his eyes
straight to where I was sitting. Edward sat down next to me like he always
does but this time he sat down very close to me instead of the arms length
away distance we were used to.
He opened his mouth to speak, but Mr. Banner started talking and he
was forced to pay attention to him. Through out the whole class period,
Edward would look at me from the corner of his eye. I couldn’t help but feel
confident.
The bell rang, signaling the end of class and I started packing up my
stuff.
“Bella,” Edward spoke to me.
I looked up at him.
“Yes?” I batted my eye lashes like Rosalie taught me too.
The trick worked because his breath caught and his green eyes
darkened to a jade.
“I was umm… I was wondering if you would…like to go out with
me?” He stuttered.
I was going to tell him off course, but then I remembered what Alice
said. Leave them always wanting more. I hid my smile.
“Maybe,” I shrugged.
He blinked twice in confusion.
“Wait, what?”
“I said maybe. I haven’t decided, bye Edward.” I stroked his cheek.
He exhaled and his eyes fluttered close. Edward seemed to collect
himself slightly and opened his eyes.
I gave him a sultry smile and left the biology room. This was going to
be fun.
