"Okay, so wear this shirt with this skirt and these shoes," Alice said, laying the items out on Edward's and my bed.

"Alice, it's cold today. I really don't want to wear a skirt to school. Besides, I don't want Edward in a mood when Mike starts hitting on me," I said, eyeing the light blue shirt and dark blue skirt.

I'll admit, it was adorable, but I really didn't want my legs to freeze off.

"Oh, come on, Bella. You'll be fine. Now get dressed," she said, pointing to the clothes.

I sighed and put them on. I slipped on the black converse that went along with it.

Alice had already done my hair and makeup, even though I begged her not to.

Ever since I moved in with the Cullens, Alice has made me get up early every morning so she could do my haite.

Emmett knocks on the door screaming, "Wear a glove Edward. I'm sure Bella wouldn't like it if you knocked her up!" Then he would walk away laughing his head off.

Curse Emmett and his bad timings.

"Bella! Come on! Chop chop, or we'll be late for school!" Alice said, waving her hand in front of my face.

I shook my head and came back to reality.

"Can I at least pick out my necklace?" I asked her.

She sighed and nodded. I headed over to my jewelry box and started searching for a certain necklace. I was going to wear the necklace that Seraphina gave to me.that would control my power. she said that it belonged to my mother

It was a locket in the shape of an oval, with a blue sapphire diamond in the middle.

I started searching for the necklace, but didn't see it anywhere among the other jewels.

"Alice?" I asked, still looking in the jewelry box.

"Yeah?" she asked.

I looked up at her, my eyebrows scrunched together.

"Where's my magic necklace? The oval shaped one, with the blue sapphire?" I asked.

"Oh, that old thing?" she waved her hand dismissively, "I threw it out with the other things you didn't need," she said.

My eyes got big.

"You what?" I exclaimed.

"I threw it out. You didn't need it. It was old anyways," she said.

"Alice, that was my mothers necklace! It was the only thing I had left of her, it controls my magic" I said, angry tears streaming over.

"Bella, it was just a necklace. Look, I'll fix it," she said.

"Good, so you can get it back?" I asked, calming down a little.

"No, I'll just buy you another," she said in a 'duh' tone.

"I don't want another one, Alice! I want that one! It was special to me! I need to go and practice with Seraphina." I said.

"Well, I'm sorry, I can't get it back, Bella. I'm really sorry. I'll buy-"

"No! Don't you get it, Alice? I don't want another one! That necklace was very special to me! It was the only thing I had left of my mother! I miss her terribly and the only thing that made me feel close to her was that necklace. And now it's gone," I said, the tears spilling over.

"Aw, Bella. I'm sorry. Now, don't cry, or you'll ruin your makeup," she said.

I stared at her in disbelief.
