Chapter 16- What to Choose
I was having the most erotic dream involving Edward of course, but I was suddenly pulled practically screaming out of it by the loud knocking coming from my front door. I moaned at the loss of the dream as I dragged myself to the door. After looking in the peep hole I opened it to a man holding a breathtaking variety of purple and white flowers. I stood there stunned looking like someone ran over me. The man finally handed me a clipboard to sign and exchanged it for the bouquet. In the unique shaped vase. He turned and walked away as I just stood there staring at the flowers. I finally woke up and turned to go back into my house and placed the vase on my table. I just sat there just viewing them. I swear after fifteen minutes I just realized that I should look for a card. I found it and opened it up.
Bella,
Thank you for a wonderfully evening.
I hope you will agree to go out again with me.
Edward
Is he kidding me. Did he actually think I would say no. I picked up my phone to call Edward.
"Good morning Bella. How did you sleep?"
"Good morning Edward. How did I sleep? Well I was having the most wonderful dream until I was woken from said dream by a delivery man. I was not happy that I was not able to continue with that dream." I tried to keep my voice stern.
"I'm sorry Bella..." I cut him off.
"No need to be. The flowers were gorgeous. Thank you." I let my voice return to its happy pitch hopefully dispelling any notion that I was really angry. But that did not mean I could not play. "I do expect you to make it up to me though." I brought my voice down an octave.
"Really how? What can I do?"
"Hmm. Let me see...I know you can reenact my dream so I can see how it ends up." I heard a gulp and figured my playing was going to have an affect.
"What was your dream about?"
"Well I guess it was a continuation of last night. The only difference is that I did not go home." I heard his intake of breath.
"Do you think you could do that for me Edward." His side was silent except for his breathing which picked up.
"Edward I am playing."
"You sure?"
"Yes, unless you find the idea appealing?"
"Oh you know I do you little vixen. It's just a shame I can't today. I have to be at my parents."
"Alright I guess I will just have to survive. Well I have to go I need to catch your sister before she heads over there too."
"Yes I remember the girls night plan of yours. Well I can't wait to hear the final details. Talk to you later?"
"Will do. Bye.
After Edward said his goodbye a called Alice. I let Alice know of plans and she was up for it. She would be back in town Wednesday. She was disappointed that she could not go shopping with us for our costumes. I told her we are probably getting them online. She told us to call her and we can all look online together. That sounded like a very good idea actually. We agreed to talk tomorrow when I was a Rose's. We would have the costumes express shipped.
When Monday evening came around I was sitting with Rose in her living room with our laptops on and running with takeout and our glass of wine. Alice was on speaker as we scrolled through the different sights and costumes. We were trying to decide if we were going to be getting costumes that were linked to each other or stand alone ones. We each had our initial idea preferences. I was looking at Pirates. It was a good idea if we all wanted to have our costumes relate. There were different versions of pirate costumes. They said it could be an option. Rose said she already knew what I was going to be.
"Bella you are going to be a naughty nurse." Interesting idea.
"Oh my god that is perfect. Edward would just die if he saw her in the one I found on the nurse page third on the top."
"That is perfect. Bella you have to wear that one. Well it is either the white one, the black one, or the blue one. Those three are the best."
"Well the black is out of the question. Look it will probably not even cover my ass."
"True but it looks hot."
"We are so stereotypical. They say that on Halloween women want to dress like whores." I could not help but comment.
"Hey it is the one time we can actually get away with it without actually being one so suck it up Bella."
"Hey I never said I wouldn't I was just making an observation. I would rather look hot than not."
"So which one should Bella wear Alice? Which one would get your brother so fired up he would rip it off her body."
"Rose!"
"Well if I were to chose for that purpose I would go with...the black."
"Alice!"
"Well it is the good girl in the bad girl costume. We could put her in virginal white, but if he sees her in the black on he will want to whisk her away so no one will see her in it. In doing that she will have got him all to herself either back at his place or hers."
"Genius Alice." Her devilish smile radiated as she placed the order for that and all the accessories to be delivered by tomorrow afternoon. "Done. Now on to mine. I already know what I want. I am going to be a cop. A dirty cop. Emmett will not know what hit him."
"Rose this is a Girls Night right?"
"Of course, but I plan on having the boys see us in our costumes before we go out so it will drive them crazy all night long."
"Evil...I love it... I found mine girls I am going to be a cowgirl. Jasper has a thing for them. It may not be a skirt but those pants are so low I will have to be careful or everyone will be seeing my butt. I might have to get a G-string with a cowboy theme or something for safety measure." (Pics of costumes on located in the same album as Edwards's apartment pics)
"Well it looks like we are done ladies. We will commence with the preparation on Thursday early afternoon so we can start our night off early."
"Sounds good Rose. I will talk to you girls later. Tootles."
As Rose hung up she turned to me. "I think we need to hit the spa on Tuesday to get ourselves all prepped. We don't want any hairs showing where everyone can see. I will make the appointments now. So you are mine Tomorrow."
"You think you are really going to get an appointment last minute?"
"Yes I do. I know the owner remember."
As I drove home I though about all that skin that is going to be showing. I may be in trouble. But maybe it might get me what I want.
