A/N: A few short things that didn't make it into the actual story.
OUTTAKE #1: Shopping With Alice (The day after Alice injured Bella)
"I'm so sorry." She apologized as she applied make up to my bruised face.
We had plans to spend the whole day together, but unanimously decided that she needed to do my makeup before we went out. Not wanting people to think she abused me or something.
"Alice, you've said that a million times...I forgive you. Ouch!-"
"Sorry! I didn't mean to press that hard!"
"It's okay, just be careful."
With a few last brushes against my skin, she declared she was done, and I looked in the mirror.
"Holy crap, you can't even tell." I said as I inspected myself.
"I know, I'm good."
She smiled proudly as she rested her hands on my hips, sending a wave of warmth through my body. I did found it odd that we had already been pretty intimate without really knowing each other that well, but I wasn't complaining.
"Now, change...then we can leave." She ordered.
"Yes, ma'am."
/-/
"Try this one on." She said as she flung a purple shirt over the stall door, hitting me in the face in the process.
We were only in the first store and I was already getting tired of changing clothes. But, since I wanted to spend time with her, I did as I was told.
"What the..." I said after I got the shirt on, confused by all the loose strings.
"Need help?" Asked through the door.
"Yeah...this is too complicated."
I signed as I unlocked the door and moved out of the way, so Alice could fit.
"It's not complicated."
She grabbed the strings and neatly tied them in the back, her fingers grazing my skin as she did so.
"Okay. Let me see."
Turning to her, she looked me up and down before giving an approving smile.
"Beautiful." She stated.
I blushed, trying to hide behind my hair, but she brushed it away and cupped my face.
"I think it's cute when you blush." She said before she leaned forward and kissed me on my cheek, letting her lips linger for a few seconds before pulling away.
That only deepened the the color of my cheeks as I had the urge to grab her and kiss her senseless.
Having the same idea, I saw a twinkle in her eye before her lips found mine. Warmth spread through me as my lips parted, allowing her to capture my bottom one and suck on it before letting go.
Not wanting the kiss to end just yet, I cupped either side of her face, and gently pulled her back up to me, planting one last sweet kiss on her perfect lips.
Both of us were breathing hard, holding ourselves back, not wanting to rush our relationship too much. I didn't know how much longer I could last though, she was so hard to resist.
OUTTAKE #2: Alice Meets Jane/ Alice Takes Bella Home (The night before the Championship game)
"Are you nervous?" I asked.
"I'm a Cullen," She scoffed. "of course I'm not nervous."
I bent down and gave her a quick kiss, before taking her hand, and pushing through the crowd as we headed over to my usual table. Jane was already there waiting, gulping down a rum and coke as we approached.
"Ali this is Jane." I said as we sat down. "Jane, this is Alice."
They both gave polite smiles as they shook hands.
"It's nice to finally meet you, Alice" I've heard so much about you."
"All good things I hope..."
"Other than you almost breaking her nose, yes."
"Jane-" I started, but Alice interrupted.
"Derby is a tough sport, sometimes you even have to hit the people you like."
After an awkward moment of silence, I tried to flag down the bartender, but to no avail since it was too crowded.
"Well, I'm gonna go get us some drinks. The usual?" I turned and asked Alice.
She nodded with a small smile, before I got up and made my way through the maze of people, until I got to the bar.
"Hey, Bella. What can I get you tonight?" Rose asked.
"Rum and coke for me, and a Bay Breeze for Ali."
"Coming right up!"
I took this time to look back at our table. They seemed to be having a pleasant conversation until Jane leaned forward and said something to Ali with a hard expression on her face. I wish I could read lips at a moment like this...
"Here you go, baby." Rose said, getting my attention.
"Thanks. Put it my tab will you?"
"You got it."
I smiled at her and weaved my way back to the table. By now, Jane's expression was back to normal, and they were actually talking about clothes, of all things.
"How'd you get Bella to shop with you?" Jane asked in disbelief.
"Magic, I guess."
"Well, lend me some of your pixie dust! She never wants to go with me."
Both laughing at her comment, I didn't contribute, not wanting to break their, what seemed like, bonding time.
If Alice was going to stick around like she had proclaimed, then I wanted my best friend and my girlfriend to get along.
We had been together for a short amount of time, but as we got to know each other, it felt longer. Every free minute we had, we spent with each other.
I knew I was falling, and hard, for that matter. Every time I saw her, my heart leaped in my chest. It was so hard to keep my hands off her.
/-/
"Hey, what did Jane say to you when I went to get us drinks? She looked kind of...oh, I don't know, intense." I asked as we walked up to my apartment.
"Just the usual best friend talk. 'If you hurt her, I'll hurt you', sort of thing."
"Oh."
"I'm not going to, you know. Hurt you, that is." She said as she grabbed my hand, our fingers automatically entwining.
I smiled at her, before we walked up the stairs, and turned down the hall, to my door. Leaning against it, she leaned in, pressing her lips to mine.
My hand went straight into her hair, tugging at the feathery locks as her hands circled my waist, bringing us closer.
"You need to get some sleep. Big night tomorrow."
Oh yes, the Championship game.
"After I'm done working tomorrow I'll come over, okay? Maybe give you a nice massage to help you relax." Her eyes twinkled.
"Alright." I said, trying not to sound too excited, but I didn't think I fooled her.
"Night, Bell."
"Good night."
I pulled her in for one more kiss, this time it was chaste, but still it sent a wave of tingles through me. Letting her go, I headed inside my apartment, my head spinning.
No, I wasn't falling. I had fallen.
A/N: This is everything that I'll be posting for this story. I really only added this special chapter, because a few people Story Alerted this one-shot. Thank you for reading :)
