A/N: (PLEASE READ) I know im an ultimate fail, i didn't know more than a month had passed between updates so you have a right to hate me. Real Life got in the way and i was in a writing funk. But im back now. Okay, so after the next chapter, I'm pretty sure there's going to be a time jump because i'm running out of ideas and I'm ready to end this story instead of dragging it out. Thus if no one has any ideas on what should happen next, be prepared for the story to end in the next 5 chapters max. One more thing, I know hoe some people hate the POV change in the middle of the story but i think it's necessary for you to get the full effect. Without further ado here's the next installment. Enjoy!

BPOV
I don’t understand how I managed to get dragged into these situations. I should have been immune to Alice’s ways, but no I just had to give in. Between Rose and Alice, I was primped, plucked, and styled until they deemed me perfect.
In the hour that I was sitting in the chair, they managed to give me tips on how to seduce Edward. I knew none of them were going to work because we were taking it slow.
“Bella listen, no matter how much Edward might deny it he wants you just as much as you want him.”
“I don’t know you guys, we’re supposed to be taking it slow.”
“You can’t take it slow. You already lost so much time with each other that you can’t get back. And instead of trying to rekindle what you had you need to make something new. Be the take charge woman we all know that’s in there Bella.”
“I don’t know guys, what if I’m not good enough?”
A sigh of exasperation came from Alice. “Bella it will be perfect because it’s you. Go for what you want.”
I looked at the both of them and grinned. “Okay I’ll do it.”
“Great! Now your clothes are hanging on the closet door. Get dressed before you look in the mirror. I want you to get the full effect.” She was gone after those last parting words.
Since there was no use in protesting, I followed her instructions by getting dressed with my back facing the mirror. But I couldn’t force myself to turn around and look.
“Bella you have 2 minutes to turn around and look before I come in there and turn you myself.” Alice shouted from somewhere in the house.
Giving myself a final pep talk, I turned to the mirror. I gasped because the person looking back at me was beautiful. The black corset dress I was wearing fit my frame like a glove, and the layered lace skirt fell to mid-thigh. The color looked great against my alabaster skin. My hair was pulled back into an elaborate french braid that had white roses woven into it. My makeup was minimal at best but my eyes stood out. Rose had gone for the smokey eye look that brought attention to my golden eyes.
“Wow. You look gorgeous.”
I turned around only to come face to face with Edward.
“Thanks. You don’t look so bad yourself.”
Of course he didn’t look bad; nothing ever looked bad on him. Dressed in a black t shirt, with black jeans and black chuck taylor’s; he looked like he was ready to pose for a magazine rather than a night at the club.
“Are you ready to go?”
“Yeah, just give me a minute.”
With one last glance in the mirror to make sure nothing was out of place, I left the room and met everyone downstairs in the foyer.
