Before school I remember that I should look up the name of the Book Store in Port Angels and find the address. We were sitting outside during the sunny day. There were a lot of students wearing summer like outfits. It did feel a bit warm out compared to the other day. I wonder what the Cullen family would wear to school if they could be out in the sun. "He's not here." Jessica was sitting nearby on the grass. "Whenever the weather's nice, the Cullens disappear." 

"They just skip?" I bite my lip not wanting to bring any more attention to the Cullen family.

"No, Dr. and Mrs. Cullen yank 'em out for hiking and camping and stuff. I tried the idea out on my parents. Not even close." Angela shows up and gets our attention. 

"I'm going to the prom with Ben Cheney! I just asked him, I took control!" Angela gives me a hug and I'm really glad to see their relationship growing. "Are you sure you have to go out of town?"

I scratch at my neck and keep the excuse going, "It's a family thing."

"Oh my God, we need to hit the stores in Port Angeles before the dresses get cleaned out."

"Port Angeles?" It has to be. "You guys need another opinion?"

"Thank God. That would be great to have all three of us to find the best dress." After school we decide whose car to take, ultimately picking Angela's car. She picked me up after following Jessica to her house to leave off her car.

There were a bunch of boys acting rowdy outside the store. They were crudely stare at Jessica with her low-cut dress and being overall obnoxious. "Bella"

"I think it fits nice."

"You said that about the last five dresses."

"No, I had mentioned the color of the one being good with your skin tone. Then the other looked good with your hair. And there was one that made your eyes pop." Making a popping noise and bursting motion with my hand.

Angela steps in. "You're very good at this, are you?"

"I could let you two finish up here while I go check out the book store. I'll meet you at the restaurant right after."

"You sure?" 

"Yeah, it won't be long if I hurry." 

As I walk out I hear Jessica reflect, "She was right about this halter, though. It does look great."
