Bella sighed heavily.
She sat at the counter of Newton's Sporting Good's store, waiting for something to happen. It was slow. It was raining. It was boring. Most of all it was lonely. Mike had called out today with some sort of flu bug. Not that she didn't want him there, but she was glad that she wouldn't be exposed to the sickness. With her luck, she would catch it and be in bed all week.
No way would she want that to happen. While she sat there at work, bored as all hell, Edward and the rest of the Cullens were out waiting for something to do as well. Maybe the boys were sparring while the girls were shopping. She didn't know. But she wanted to leave to go have fun with them.
Glancing at the clock, she saw she still had a half hour of left. She groaned while turning around in her stool. She played with her orange vest before looking up. Mrs. Newton was rushing around.
"Bella, I have to go home to check on Mike. He just called and he doesn't sound well. Would you mind locking up for me after your shift is done? I don't want to leave him-"
Bella waved her hand. "No problem Mrs. Newton. Tell Mike I said to feel better."
The women smiled, nodded, and left.
Now Bella was totally alone in the store. Well, besides hiking boots and other supplies that rested on the shelf.
She turned on towards the counter again and drummed her fingers on the top. She closed her eye, still bored.

Hiking. She had know idea how Sammy had talked her into this. But she did. Holly scowled as she made it through the store enterance. She`d need hiking. To bad Holly had no idea what you needed to hike. She only knew things about soccer. No hiking. Hiking is a serious non-no in her book. At least now it is. The dim lights annoyed her. Holly`s eye twitched just as a light flickered off. This was just what she needed. Or not needed if you looked at it in an angle.
Holly clicked her tougne togther and thought of the many ways of hiking. On TV they had some kind of equipment. Now to find out what kind of equipment. Just then her cell phone rang. Holly had thought of putting it on vibrate but thought against it.
"Hello? Holly Grams here."Holly greeted as cheerfully as she could. Though it was kind of hard when you were stuck in a random sport store with no idea of what to get.
"Holly! Why aren`t you done getting our stuff yet?! I want to leave to go hiking right in the morning!"A the voice boomed.
Holly groaned."Sammy... You never told me what to get."Holly whispered into the phone. She didn`t feel like yelling into a phone in such a quiet place.
"Whatever! Just hurry up!"Sammy yelled completely avoiding the question, because she too did not know the answer.
Holly massaged her forehead and sighed. Sometimes her little sister could be a little... to loud. She was sure she would need a hearing aid if Sammy kept yelling like that. Holly then spotted a worker. She didn`t want to be social. But they looked pretty bored, and it seemed like Holly`s predicament would wake them up. Well at least to a level.
Holly walked to the worker who seemed bored out of their mind. She stopped in front of the worker and put on her best fake smile. "Excuse me... Could you list out the items for hiking? I`m sorry if this sounds ridiculous in anyway."Holly asked.
