Edward walked into the living room where he found Alice on the couch with the remote in her hand.
"Alice turn the game on."
"No way there's a Dark Shadows marathon on."
Edward reached for the remote but Alice put it behind her.
"Come on Alice you can get this show on DVD so you do a marathon when a game isn't on."
"I'll play you for it. Rock. paper, scissors."
"Why don't you just tell me who wins?"
"I do excellent."
Alice reached behind her for the remote and turned on the TV. Edward sat down beside her and pouted.
"Alice you're such a dork."
"Go over to Bella's and watch the game with Charlie."
"Good idea."
