I wrote this very short story based on Eclipse. It's told from Edward's point of view. I wrote it quite some time ago, and only decided now to put it out and see what people think of it. Please bình luận and tell me what bạn think (if bạn want to read others etc.) as I have some other similar short stories that I was thinking about posting aswell!
******************
Undoubtedly Alice was my favourite sister. There wasn’t really any competition. I had annoyed Rosalie from the first ngày she heard me speak; it went both ways. I loved Rosalie, true. But without a doubt, I adored Alice. She was annoying and weird, but she was also funny, useful and my other half, well not exactly but something like it; my best friend. We stuck together, Alice and I. Both freaks among those who were already freaks. We kept each other’s secrets, we protected those we loved; the exact same people bởi some horrible trick of faith.
“Edward…” Alice đã đưa ý kiến sweetly as I wandered into the kitchen, contemplating on whether I should go hunting hoặc not. But I was too nervous. Bella was at her werewolf party. My voice twisted around the word werewolf. I don’t know how I had talked myself into trusting her assessment of the werewolves’ safety- Bella wasn’t exactly the best at assessing danger-, but as I had đã đưa ý kiến to Bella, I didn’t want it to drive a wedge between us.
“Edward….” Alice đã đưa ý kiến again. I had no idea what she wanted. Naturally she was thinking of Bella with the werewolves, wondering why she couldn’t see them. It bothered her to be blind, to not be sure of the future.
“Edward….” she started once more.
“Alice, you’ve đã đưa ý kiến that three times already. What do bạn want?”
'Want?!' Alice thought, her voice tainted with mock surprise and hurt. 'Why on earth do bạn think I would want anything? Hmmm? It makes no sense what so ever for me to want anything from you, Edward. Your girlfriend, though, well that’s another matter entirely.'
Oh crap. What did she want from Bella now? I sighed.
“What is it, Alice?”
Hope and excitement glimmered in her eyes. Suddenly I caught sight of a vision. A party. That was what she wanted. A graduation party, for Bella. Ugh. Bella would never forgive me if I đã đưa ý kiến yes, but I also saw that Alice was going to get her way. She usually did.
“As bạn have already seen, bởi prying in my head, bạn know what I want. Please Edward.” She begged, dropping down to her knees, the magazine she had been đọc slipping out of her hands. 'The last party I organised was Bella’s eighteenth, and that didn’t go down too well. In fact, I’d say with certainty that that party had the worst outcome in the history of parties, wouldn’t bạn agree?'
I shuddered as I remembered Bella’s disastrous eighteenth birthday party, which I had tried so hard too forget, but failed miserably. I sighed again.
“Seeing as you’re going to get you’re way bởi taking Bella on a guilt trip if I don’t agree now, I suppose there’s no point in making Bella feel bad. Fine, Alice. Have your fun. But…”
“Yay!!!” Alice squealed, clapping her hands together in delight. “But I have to tell Bella, got it, got it! Bye now!” She finished my sentence for me, and ran out the door, plans for the party already underway in her head.
I sighed, once more, and sat down in the ghế, chỗ ngồi Alice had been sitting on phút before. I picked up the magazine she had dropped. I started to flick through it absentmindedly, and suddenly noticed that all the pages were of wedding dresses, decoration and the like. If my tim, trái tim had still been beating it would have stopped. There was no way that she knew, was there? No. Why would she have been looking out for such a thing? I suddenly realised, with a heavy heart, that, yes she knew. She always knew everything.
