Girls Night In(Alice)

[isabella marie swan]

As Edward was out for the night to go hunting, Alice was on 'babysitting' duty. Or at least that's how Bella saw it, it could be rather ridiculous. Especially with all the work Alice put into these nights. She loved Alice, really she did, but she was not looking forward to her makeovers and being dressed up in clothes she didn't want to be dressed in. She knew it was useless to fight it anymore though, because Alice got her way. She always got her way.

If it wasn't for the whole dressing up and make up bits to this whole sleep over, Bella wouldn't have minded it so much. She had known Edward was going hunting today, so after getting off work she went back to the cottage to get in a quick shower, some dinner and then she would head over to the main house where everyone but her and Edward lived. She was sure that there would be food there, because Esme would probably go and get her something, but she didn't want to be any trouble and just heated up some left over food from the night before. After eating her dinner she brushed her teeth and brushed out her damp hair again. Sighing, Bella turned off the light in the bathroom and grabbed her sneakers on the way out. She had brought her pajamas for the night, though she was sure Alice would try to force into something much nicer looking. Honestly, Bella was okay with her swear pants and her t-shirt that was way too big for her.

Driving over to the Cullen household she turned off her car and reached behind her to get her small bag with her tooth brush, toothpaste, hair brush and her pajamas. She then proceeded to get out of the car and headed up to the front door, sure that Alice would probably answer the door before she even got a chance to ring the doorbell.

Alice was upstairs in her room getting ready for tonight. Bella and Alice were planning on having a girls night. Usually, Bella spends the night with Edward in their new cottage, but tonight Edward was out hunting. Alice would sometimes go with the guys, but she would never give up an opportunity to have a girls night with Bella.

Alice changed out of her jeans and shirt into a nice fancy black dress. It was strapless and went down to her knees. She knew that they would be changing into their pajamas in a little bit, but Alice wanted to look nice until that happened. She went into the bathroom to set out her make up for tonight. As she entered back into her bedroom she looked at all the dresses that were around her room. Alice couldn't wait until Bella got her, then she could see her in all the dresses. Alice loved to dress Bella up like she is her Barbie doll. She knew that Bella didn't enjoy it as much, but Alice did it anyways.

She heard Bella's car turn into the Drive Way. "She is here!" Alice said. She rushed downstairs into the kitchen and grabbed the spaghetti for Bella. As she entered back into the living room, she put the food on the table. Alice went to the window and saw that Bella was in the front drive way. She was just getting out of the car. Alice went and opened the door. "Hey Bella! I'm so glad that you are here." Alice told Bella as she came up to the door. Alice had a big simile on her face."I have supper for you, I made it myself."

It was true that Bella tended to stay at the cottage, as that's where she lived now with Edward. However, on the nights that he went hunting, she usually stayed with someone like Esme or Alice. She hated feeling like such a nuisance, but Edward wouldn't allow her to stay at the cottage by herself and in a way she was glad to be around others. Sure she could handle a night in the cottage by herself, but she didn't mind seeing Alice and the others either. Bella had thought about just going over as she was, but she felt a bit gross from being in and out of the shop all day and as it had been raining she got soaked quite a few times. Of course she didn't dress up as Alice had, she was in a simple pair of jeans and a tank top covered by a hoodie. She was sure that Alice wouldn't approve, but Bella was comfortable with the way she was dressed right now.

Honestly, Bella was a bit hesitant to get out of her car and she was half tempted to just turn back and go to the cottage, but she knew Alice would just drag her back there. Mostly because she didn't want to have to deal with Edward not being happy about Alice doing what she was supposed to do. She didn't hear Alice shout that she was here as she made her way up to the front porch, but she jumped a bit when Alice opened the door with enthusiasm. Smiling when Alice greeted her she headed in the door. "Hey Alice." She said with a smile still on her face, shifting her bag in her hand a little she smelt food and knew it had to be for her. Cringing a little, she felt guilty for already eating but she didn't want them to go to trouble for her. Still, she didn't want to hurt Alice's feelings. "Thanks Alice, but you didn't have to do that." Bella told her, though admittedly it did look good. She was kind of full as it was, but she would try to eat some, just so she didn't hurt Alice's feelings.
