13. Reason


I felt rushed suddenly like I couldn't unbuckle fast enough. Here I was seeing Alice for the first time in 11 years. For a سیکنڈ I wondered how much she changed but then realized my dumb accusation. I redid the checklist in my head. Aly is محفوظ with Charlie and Sue at Billy's house having a مچھلی Fry. Jacob is with them and he knows I'm getting my hair colored ad I کہا I would try to come back once I'm done. I looked in the back نشست at the bags of cloths for seeing Jacob and hanging with Alice. I changed right after I talked to Jacob and now I'm here.

I opened the door and smiled. "Bella" Alice Sung, she walked over to me and hugged me, her embrace made me shiver physically but mentally I felt like I was home. My دل pumped, like the پمپ آپ get from your first love. The warmth آپ receive on that first kiss, everything I got from her brother, in my arms. She wrapped her arms around me I didn't want to let her go but I knew the people in the solon would look at us.

I let her go, slowly but kept my hands on my shoulders. I smiled so brightly I thought my lips would rip. "Hi Alice."

"God Bella آپ look great, you… are beautiful." Alice said, moving a strand of hair from my eyes.

I smiled at her not quiet ready to remove my eyes from her pixy face, but I knew what she meant. آپ have aged gracefully.

I looked away, regrettably, and when to the front counter. I saw my name and Alice's also, "What are آپ getting done Alice?" I کہا signing my name.

"A trim" she smiled angelically. Her teeth glowing with the fluorescents, her eyes liquid سونا as she winked at me. "What about آپ a color change right, brunette" we laughed like those 10 years where only hours we rekindled greatly.

"I'm dieing to know" I smiled at her unintended joke "about your daughter Alison she is beautiful and sweet and smart." Alice said. We were both sitting down, knees touching, hearts loving.

"She is like me I guess. I found her so to speak, I was driving back from Port Angles when I saw a car crash I got out of the car to see if I could help and there she was sleeping both her parents died but she was just fine, like some one picked her out for me."

"Aww I didn't know that, I thought that there were years of trying to get her" Alice voice کہا sincerely as I memorized it.

"Well the orphanage was full is I just told my dad that I will take her in, and some how he let me."

"Bella Alice" the host called us. "My name is Sally, right back here, we can get آپ to in at the same time."

We sat in two separate chairs right پار, صلیب each other, Alice was laughing, "Blonde, it suits آپ well." I looked at the Sally; she had spoken the words as Alice chimed her laugh.

"Blonde it is then " I smiled, she came back out with a bowl of thick white stuff. " Alice are آپ sure I will look good as a blonde." I hated to take my eyes off of her but Sally leaned my head into the basin.

" Oh yes آپ will looked fabulous." She then begins to talk to woman that would be cutting her hair. I knew where this would go, well honestly, I didn't, but I had to ask. "Alice, have آپ talked to Edward lately?"

The tone of her voice suspired me, "yeah I talked to him this morning, why do آپ ask." she was so calm with this, did she not hear my دل beating faster then she drives. یا the fact that I had to catch my breath when I thought of him. Who knows what would happen if I were ever able to see him again. I wanted to see him; badly I wanted to crave the feeling in my heart. But I thought of all the progress I had ever made ignoring him, he didn't want me.

"Well god do آپ want to see him یا not, make up your mind." She voice was serious but still had her happy Alice-ness to it.

"I want to see him but I don't think he wants to see me." I کہا after a minute, Sally had sat me upright and was now adding natural looking highlights.

"Well he doesn't know I'm seeing آپ today, and he doesn't know if your here یا not," she said, I saw her face in the reflection, she looked like a چینی مٹی کے برتن doll, she has her hair cut about a inch shorter then it was now pressed flat to her face like a bob.

"I thought آپ saw him this morning, آپ must have been thinking of me right." My voice shot an octave while I was speaking.

"Bella, he has only been back with all of us for a سال یا so, he's finally getting through your guys brake up, the last thing I wanted to do was over dose him, just to send him running again. Esme would kill me." She کہا دل felt, I mumbled an "Oh" as sally leaned me back into the basin and finished my hair.

Only the sound of the TV in the waiting room filled my ears. "Wait آپ کہا he's only been back this last سال یا so, where has he been these last 10 years."

"All over Bella, he did things to keep him distracted, he spent the majority of his time in South America though. He ran into a few of our allies there. Then I believe he spent a سال in Egypt then some time in Alaska just before he came back and found us. "

"Oh lots of traveling then huh, how is every one else?" I said. I wanted to stop talking about him knowing that he was in pain for what he did had my stomach in knots.

"Good I suppose, Rosalie Esme and Carlisle are in Paris for the month, Emmett, Jasper Edward and I are here for a while, then we all we meet some where in Canada."

They are all here; it wasn't my imagination. then that means Jacob lied to me. He knew they were all back he only told me about Alice and jasper. " Why was Jasper sending Alison flower?" I asked suddenly.

"Alison will grow up to love red roses, Jasper just gave her a bit of a push. Did آپ like my fruit basket?" She laughed.

"Yeah it was beautiful. I didn't eat it though I left it in the cafeteria, my employees enjoyed it."

Alice scoffed; Sally wrapped a towel around my head and moved me to sit سے طرف کی Alice, who was well done with her hair. The woman that did Alice's hair began to blow dry mine.

Alice kept silent, allowing my mind to wonder about the days I thought I was going crazy. Maybe I really did hear Edward's voice that دن after the mall. He really was there asking me what I was doing. And Emmett he came back to see me as well. How so very strange.

Jasper most of all. He wanted to kill me not to long پہلے and now he is giving my daughter roses. Then I realize what I had let happen. Even though I didn't let there names individually penetrate my life I let here actions. I got a jeep because of Emmett, named Alison after Alice, Aly even looks like Edward. Was it a conscious choice یا was Bella Cullen acting silently all my Cullen-less life. I loved baseball suddenly, was that Bella Cullen too.

"Your friend was right آپ do make a great blonde." The woman کہا turning me over to view my self in the mirror.

"Edward is going to kill me," Alice mumbled to herself when she looked at me. "You look beautiful. I'm speechless."

I stood up and ran my hand through it. It was pretty and it made me look very different. But it was a good different. Alice leaded the way to the cash resister, before I could even see the price of the coloring Alice handed Sally her black card.

"I had fun Bella, we have to do this very soon, with the whole family, like Thursday night soon," her face froze checking the date. She nodded and hugged me close.

"Love آپ Alice see آپ Thursday night." She kissed my cheek.

"Bring Alison," she کہا getting into her yellow Farri. She waved out thought the tinted windows and speed off.

I got into my car and through my review mirror, I saw Kevin going to a loan office. He must be doing something for his bar. I quickly pulled out and head towards Forks, I stopped at my house seeing how if I was 15 منٹ late it really wouldn't make a difference, I changed cloths and throw the Alice imbedded cloths in the wash. I adjusted my hair to a few different angles trying to decide what I'll like more. I got into the car, I began to back out when I nearly hit a tree, in my back نشست sat Bella Cullen, in the same cloths I had just threw in the wash. She had golden eyes and brown hair. She didn't look too happy.

"Bella we need to talk."
