Alice, Bella and friends.

Random

I laughed slightly and pulled her a little closer, "now wouldn't be a good time to sleep would it? The bell's gonna ring in a few minutes."

"Ehhh don't remind me."

"Okay. Hey look, Alice and Ronan are...going out the back door?..."


Alice

I did have some experience in hiding my physical ailments, but never to this extent, I didn't have enough in my stomach to actually throw up, I hoped. I hadn't eaten more than two bites of the sandwich Ronan had made me before I tucked it away in my purse.

I didn't want him to worry about me so I pretended I was fine.

Bella

"Oh...urm..." I muttered sleepily, trying to remember why they were leaving. "Oh, they have hte...um...band thing...today."

Ronan

Alice wasn't well, I could tell. I put an arm around her, just in case her illness got the better of her.

Alice

I looked up at Ronan and smiled, "how are you?"

"Fine. You don't look too good. Tell me what's wrong?"

"I feel a little woosy thats all, I haven't gotten much sleep lately."

He didn't look like he really believed me.


Random

"Oh that makes sense."

The bell rang and she groaned.

"Come on," I said pulling her to her feet, quite literally too. She didn't look like she was helping at all. "I'll make sure you get to class okay?"

She sighed and nodded.

**RANDOM TIME LAPSE TO FRIDAY (after school, before band concert)**

Bella

I parked my van at the beach, climbing up onto the top of the vehicle.

"Meh, Alice is forcing me to the band concert." Random climbed up to sit next to me. The van creaked dangerously.

"Oh yeah, that's tonight isn't it?"

"Yup. I'ma pick Alice and Ronan up on my way back to the school," I nodded.

"What'cha doin' till then?" Random's voice sounded slightly suggestive. Grinning, I leaned up and kissed him full on the lips.

I was in a good moood today.


Ronan

I sat on Alice's couch, waiting for her to get out of the bathroom.

"What's taking you so long?" I called, laughing slightly.

"Nothing," Alice answered, coming around through the kitchen. I rolled my eyes, patting the spot next to me on the couch.

"Your 'rents are gonna kill me for being here, aren't they?"

"I dunno. They've been fairly lenient lately," Alice replied, grinning.

Alice

I sat next to him leaning against the warmth and awesomeness of his white band shirt and jeans.

"Wanna go hang out on the porch til mom gets home?" I said, "then it'll be safe...ish to come in and get around for the concert."

"Okay."


Random

My arms moved of their own accord and pulled her closer to me, I was in such a heightened state of joy that I forgot that I was on the very edge of the van.

The closer I pulled her to me the closer we got to the edge of the van. I slid slightly and WOOSH we both fell to the ground with a thud.

Bella

I began laughing hystercally, having landed on top of Random. He laughed too.

I looked down at him.

"Akward position," he commented, looking up at me. I leaned down and kissed him again.

Ronan

I walked down the stairs, holding her hand in my own.

Alice

We sat next to each other on the porch, keeping our minds on the time just in case we forgot.

"I suppose I should introduce you to my parents as my boyfriend now shouldn't I?" I aksed smiling slightly.

"So long as we don't get killed for it."

"I don't think we will."


Random

"Okay maybe not so akward," I smiled and rolled to the side.

"Hey," she said "I was comfy there."

Ronan

"Who's that?" I asked as a car pulled into the drive. I couldn't see the person inside.

Bella

I growled with false anger.

"I was too, that was the problem," he grinned, running a hand through my hair gently.

"Well that's no fun!" I sighed loudly, locking eyes with him.

Alice

"Thats my mom's car...but my sister's inside."

"Your sister scares me."

"She scares everybody."

"She scares me more than your dad."

I laughed, "thats a new one."


Random

I kissed her forehead. "For you but do you know how much torture it is for a guy?"

She laughed, "only slightly."

"Its a living hell. Especially when we got somewhere we need to be soon."

Bella

"We have slightly over a half an hour," I groaned, making my eyes really wide.

He stared at me, a smile lingering on his lips. I gave him the most adorable and irrisistable of my puppy dog faces.

Ronan

"Oh no, she's getting out of the car," I whispered, trying to hide behind Alice.

"Yeah, what did you expect?"

"I dunno...maybe she would forget something and drive away again?"

Alice

"Not my sister, she won't remember something for another twenty minutes."

"Oh crap."

"Hi Anna!"

"Hi Alice, hi Alice's boyfriend."

Ronan shot me a quizzical look. "You're supposed to go get mom."

She vanished through the door.

"She knows?"

"No, she just says that to any guy I'm hanging out with."

"Oh."


Random

I kissed her lips. "I still say no."

She pouted more. "Why?"

"Death by parental unit possiblity, and if we do, its going to be perfect." I narrowed my eyes, "think on that one."

Bella

I growled.

"By your parental units?" I questioned.

"No, yours," he replied. I rolled my eyes, leaned forward, and kissed him forcefully before he could object. Of course, once my lips touched his he didn't resist any.

"Fine," I sighed.

Ronan

"Well, she's gonna have to stop that once we telll 'em, no?"

"Probably, but she won't."

"Hey, I never asked you out did I?"

"Nope."

"Alice, will you be my girlfriend?"

Alice

I laughed slightly, "yes." I looked down at my hand and realized my Calladgh ring was still the "i was single" way. I pulled it off my finger and flipped it around.

"What was that?"

"My Calladgh ring, it shows your relationship status basically."

"Oh." he took my hand and started twirling the ring around in it.


Random

"Wanna go get something to eat?" I asked standing up and pulling her with me.

"Yeah," she sighed, I couldn't resist. I pulled her up close to me and kissed her, this time, I was the one in control.

Bella

I kissed back, grinning inwardly. When I pulled back I stared at him.

"But you said..." I blinked a few times.

Ronan

"It's pretty," I commented.

Random

"Now I can control it," I said "its much easier to do when you're not lying on top of me."

"OH."

"Okay food time."


Alice

"I bought it in Chicago," I giggled, "with the money I shoulda used to pay Bella back."

"For what?"

"A shirt from Ed Debevics."
