"Alice!" I groaned while looking at what she'd forced me into.
"What?" she asked. Clearly, she didn't understand what I was referring to. Or maybe she was just playing dumb. I wasn't sure, but either way, I chose to elaborate.
"The outfit? Is it really necessary?"
"Of course it is, Clara! Think of it as a sort of date. You need to look nice!"
What did she put me in you might ask? A really pretty sundress. But that wasn't the problem. It was the yellow matching heels.
My balance wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. These were four-inch heels! Not that the one inch would be much better for me.
As soon as Alice was finished with me, she led me outside to a shiny silver Volvo.
I sat in the back with Alice and Jasper. Edward and Rose sat in the front. This ended up forcing Emmett into his own jeep to drive behind us.
Once on the highway, they started in.
"So, do you like Emmett?"
"What?" I asked them.
"You heard me," Edward said.
"Come on Clara! Just answer the question. Pleaseeeeee?" Alice was now begging.
"A little," I admitted while turning red.
"Yay!" She cheered.
Then I heard Edward snicker. Soon after he started to sing. "Clara and Emmett sitting in a tree..."
"Oh no! Don't do that!"
"K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
"Stop it! Please!" I said, mortified.
"First comes love, then comes marriage..."
"Stop the car!" I yelled out. Not even waiting for him too. I threw off my shoes and jumped out. Rolling into the dirt.
The tires screeched, and Alice yelled out. "Clara! What are you doing? You are going to ruin your dress!"
"I don't care!" I yelled back.
"You are making a scene," she called out. Right after she spoke, Emmett pulled up. Where was he even at? I'd thought he was following us, but I guess he made a pit stop.
"No, I'm not." And then I started walking. I didn't care if I looked stupid. I wasn't getting back in their car.
Once they realized this, they drove off. But Emmett stayed.
"Clara? What happened?" Worry was evident in his voice.
"It's nothing. Sort of making fun of me. I'm not too sure why."
It looked as if he wanted to ask another question, but he decided against it.
"Clara, get in, please?" He sounded pained. I didn't know why, but I decided to get in.
He helped me put the complicated seat belt on. I heard another song I recognized. I turned it up. I started singing along.
During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible
"You know this song too?" Emmett asked me.
"Yeah," I said while smiling.
