Betrayal

Chapter 6

CHAPTER 6

A week has passed since my birthday. The Monday after I've had people coming up to me telling me they had a great time at my party. I really owe Alice one. It's all thanks to her.

Alice and I have just finished Gym and were getting out of the changing rooms when somebody called out her name.

"Alice! Wait up! Hey uhm can I talk to you for a second?" Jasper said. Poor guy looks nervous.

"Sure," Alice said perkily.

Jasper ushered her at the side. I raised my eyebrow at Edward silently asking him if he's finally asking Alice out. Since we've come back those two have been spending an incredible amount of time together. Alice insisted they are just working on their History project. Clearly Jasper really likes Alice. How else can he handle being around her giddiness all the time?

Edward nodded his head. Finally. About time too.

Since the party Edward has been pretty distant to me more than usual and I have no idea why. We talked in class once in awhile but you can tell it's such a hard work for him so I didn't even bother making an effort to talk to him. I actually miss our little banters.

On the other hand, I talked more and more to Rose and Emmett. Alice, Rose and I once went shopping and I've only got one word to describe it. Torture. Complete and utter torture. Going with Alice is bad enough but going shopping with them two should be illegal. I'm not even kidding. They dragged me from shop to shop and they completely forgot about food even though I tried to usher them to the food court. We were in the mall for 9 hours. Nine freaking hours!

And Emmett is like the big brother I never had. He's a complete tool but a very caring and funny one at that. He really makes me laugh. I am really glad Jasper introduced us to each other (and I can only hope they feel the same) cos there would be no way at all I would be hanging out or talked to them if he hasn't.

I saw Alice hugged Jasper and came over to me with the biggest grin on her face, hey eyes twinkling from excitement. She literally dragged me out of the building and led me inside the forest and towards our 'tree'.

Then she squealed. Very loudly I might add. I actually had to cover my ears to protect it since she would probably damage my eardrums. Good thing she restraint herself from doing that around the campus. People would think we're right psychos!

"Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God Bells! He asked me if I wanted to have dinner with him tomorrow night! Of course I said yes! And he said 'great! It's a date then'! Oh my God! I can't believe he asked me out! I'm going on a date with Jasper Whitlock tomorrow night! Aaaahhhh!!" She's bouncing up and down screaming from excitement and I'm incredibly happy for her. She finally got the guy of her dreams.

"That's great Al! But you might wanna calm down before you pass out!" I said laughing.

"I'm just so happy Bells!" Her face suddenly looked worried, "Oh no what am I going to wear!? C'mon we have to go back to our room so I can plan my outfit!" Before I can say something, she dragged me out of the forest and kept hold of my wrist until we got to our dorm.

"Al seriously you're cutting off my circulation! Calm down you've got a lot of clothes!" I freed my wrists from her grasped and shook it letting the blood flow back.

"Sorry Bells," She said sheepishly.

"Sure, sure. Anyway like I was saying you've got tons of clothes! I'm sure you'll find the perfect one," She started rummaging through her closets, next thing I knew clothes were flying all round the room.

She spent the next 2 hours going through everything she's got before she finally found the one she's content with.

"Found it! It's perfect!" She's holding up a cute black dress. Perfect for Alice.
