"No, stop it." Alice giggled, chasing Edward through the house, their footsteps light as they dodged couches and tables and expensive decorations.

Esme glanced up as the two circled the piano, Edward's grin broad and Alice's giggles infectuous. "What's going on?"

"He won't settle on a decision!" Alice put her hands on her hips and stomped her foot. "He's giving me a headache."

Edward laughed and took off towards the kitchen, Alice on his heels. They scampered outside and Alice tackled him, knocking him to the side. He laughed again and grab her, spinning in circles.

"Make a decision." She whispered over the wind.

He shut his eyes and sighed, twirling her away from him, still holding her hand. "Fine."

Her eyes unfocused and she looked at peace as he watched her, watching the future play out in her mind. "Thanks," She whispered, glancing back at him. "For only torturing me for so long."

Edward laughed again, obnoxiously happy with his sister. "You know I only torture because I love."

Alice snorted. You're a meanie.

"Stick out your tongue and stomp your foot again while thinking that, you'll look like a child again."

She shoved him as she skipped back inside.

Pfft, brothers.
