A/N: hey everyone, I know it's been ages since I last updated but I have been really stuck with this one. I've got a new idea for a story so I was in the mode of daydreaming about all of the details haha. So I'm sorry to take a while. I will finish this story and my other one before I start on my other Bellice fic so don't worry. But if you want to read it put me on Author alert so you know when I have posted it. ^_^
Now on with the chapter...
'Don't Ever Feel Alone'
'Chapter 11: Happy Travels'
(Bella's P.O.V)
"So where do you wanna go?" Alice whined for about the 20th time that day. I was sitting on my couch with Alice's head on my lap while she lay down. She was looking through a brochure of places that were good to go for a weekend.
"Alice, I don't mind. You're the one who wanted to go on this trip so you pick" I said back to her while running my hand through her hair.
She was quiet for a moment and then whipped her head to face me, she had a frown on her face,
"So you don't want to go with me?" she said and looked liked she was about to cry. I pouted at her and bent forward to kiss her forehead.
"Of course I want to go with you, I don't mind where we go as long as I'm with you" I stated and she smiled and leaned up to capture my lips,
"But I do think that Jasper knows about us, so this would be a waste of time" I stated and she slapped my arm lightly,
"Oh stop being so boring! It won't be a waste of time...trust me" she said sending me a wink before going back to look in the brochure, I couldn't help the feeling that sent through me.
I mean with what happened at school the other day in her car, who knows what might happen. But I'm not actually complaining about it. I'm actually glad that Jasper asked her out. But I still think that he was just trying to figure something out. I know my family too well, and I will probably ask him about it when I get home.
We had already asked Carlisle and Esme if they minded us going away for the weekend and they didn't have a problem with it. I know that Rosalie was sending me and knowing smirk when I asked though. I mean to everyone else it was just a friendly weekend away between best friends.
But as she always does...Rose knew the truth behind it. And I'm just glad Emmett doesn't know yet because I know for a fact that he would be sending jokes and comments everytime we were in the same room as him.
"I've got it!" Alice shouted from my lap, resulting in me jumping out of my skin. I heard Alice laugh quietly at my action and I sent her a playful glare,
"Now that you have succeeded in scaring me to death...what have you found?" I asked generally interested in where she picked.
I watched as she pointed to a page in the book and I took it out of her hands inspecting it closely,
"Vienna?" I asked in astonishment, where the hell was I going to get money for that?
"Alice, I can hardly pay to live here now that most of my parents money is gone, how the hell am I gonna afford for us to go to Vienna? Can't we go somewhere closer and cheaper?" I asked her and she laughed lightly,
"Fine, how about..." she was snaking her finger over the map, and I was dreading where she was going to pick,
"There" she said and I bent forward a little bit and looked at where her finger was
"Los Angeles?" I asked her amused, she goes from one of the romantic destinations, to one of the most typical destinations,
"Well yeah it's closer to here and we could stay at the Four Seasons! I love it there!"
"The Four Seasons? How the hell did you afford to go there" I asked her and she shrugged,
"I won a prize one year, and it was so go there for a weekend" she said grabbing her glass of water from the table and sipping it before setting it back down,
"yeah but, you never actually paid for anything yourself" I said to her and she shook her head no,
"So you don't actually know how much it is?" I asked and she shook her head once more,
I took the brochure out of her hands and looked for the Four Seasons in the Los Angeles section, when I found it I smiled at her and then placed the book back in her hands, I watched as her eyes scanned the page and then when she found what I had intended, her eyes widened, she then replied..
"Ok so were not going to the Four Seasons" she said as she shut the brochure and chucked it onto the coffee table, she then turned onto her side, her head was still laying in my lap, her eyes closed as I played with her short hair,
"for someone who doesn't like vacations, you sure are getting excited about it" I stated and she replied without opening her eyes,
"I guess I just felt lonely on them, but it will be different with you, and trust me...neither one of us is gonna be feeling lonely, not with how close we are gonna be" she said flicking her eyes open and then sent me a sly wink. I laughed to myself. I was getting more and more excited about this trip, but then I crash down again because of money, I sighed barely loud enough for Alice to hear, but of course she did. She looked up at me with a concerned expression,
"What's the matter sweetie? You don't have to go if you don't want to" she and I rolled my eyes and leaned forward, kissing her softly, I then pulled back and smiled at her,
"I want to go Alice, trust me" I sighed once more before continuing...
"it's just I don't think I can afford it" she rolled her eyes this time and ran her hand through my hair,
"Calm down honey, I don't expect you to pay for it, I saved up some money ages ago from when my parents went on their trips and left me some money for myself" she stated and I sighed,
"Alice, I don't want you spending your money on me like this, you could spend it on yourself or something" I stated and she shook her head, sighed, then sat up and straddled my hips so that she was sitting in my lap, and I couldn't stop the blush forming on my cheeks,
"But I am spending it on myself, I'm buying myself a weekend with you, that's the best gift I could buy myself" she said as she put her hands on either side of my face, rubbing my cheeks with her thumbs, I sent her a playful glare,
"You know that's not what I meant" I said and she rolled her eyes,
"i know what you meant, but I don't care, I'm still doing it" she said as she tried to move off of my lap, but I was holding her hips in place with my hands on either side of her waist, she turned to give me a smirk that I loved,
"As much as I would love to re-enact the 'Not myself tonight' video, I have to get our trip plans sorted out" she stated and I laughed and sent her a smirk and then leaned closer to her ear,
"Such a shame. Cause I was going to do more than what is in that video" I whispered seductively in her ear, I pulled back to see pure lust in her eyes, I then pressed my lips to hers and kissed her hungrily, I pulled back though before it could get any further, Alice's eyes were still closed as I pulled back, I chuckled and bucked her off of my lap and into the seat next to me, I didn't miss the little moan that came from her as I did so either. She sat there wide eyed looking up at me. I smiled at her expression and collected our dirty cups from the coffee table and walked towards the kitchen to clean them up.
I tossed them into the sink, and heard Alice shout from the living room, "Tease!"
I laughed to myself and carried on cleaning out the cups, thinking about our weekend in store.
"Have you got the tickets?"
"Yes"
"Are you sure you have the tickets?"
"Yes!"
"Okay, do you have the passports?"
"Yes Alice! I have everything, stop stressing out!" I shouted through the crowded airport.
"I'm only checking Bella, I want everything to go right" she stated from my side as I pushed the trolley that had our luggage on them. We were about to check in at the desk for our flight out.
Now I hate large crowds and the people really piss me off that work here. They act like they don't give a crap whether you get on the plane or not. So I was at the moment to put it simply...pissed off.
We finally made it to the desk for our flight and checked in for our flight to Los Angeles. It went smoothly...for once. We were now heading towards the departure lounge to wait for our plane. I was holding Alice's hand as we walked, we were getting a few stares but I couldn't give a crap to be perfectly honest. I was with Alice and that's all I cared about. And soon enough we would be alone...in a hotel room...for the weekend...Oh my god, I think I'm gonna start jumping around. And that is something I seriously do not do in public. But I might make and exception.
"I'm so excited!" Alice said from bedside me and I looked to see her beaming with a smile, I smiled back at her,
"I know me too. We have the whole weekend to ourselves!" I replied and she started jumping a little. She was so cute when she was excited.
"Yeah, I have you all to myself" she said when she calmed down a bit. She sent me a wink. How can the littlest gesture like a wink make me so excited?...oh yeah...it's Alice that's doing it.
"You shouldn't tease me in a public place, it's cruel!" I said with an aggravated laugh, she then sent me a mischievous smile and then rub my arm lightly.
"Why? What would you do if we weren't in public" she whispered and I swear I'm gonna die of sexual frustration.
"Something your innocent ears shouldn't hear" I laughed out and she copied me,
"I'm not that innocent" she smirked and I this is where I would literally have melted to the ground if we were in some sort of cartoon. Either that or I would shout 'Giggity' but no, this was real life and all I could do was stand there looking like a horny teenage freak, life sucks.
She stood there staring at me a while and then a voice came over the speaker saying that our plane was about to board. Thank God. Something to take my mind off my dirty thoughts. Not that they were a bad thing. Just not...appropriate at this moment in time.
So about 5 hours later we were barging into a hotel that we had found that was cheaper than Alice's first choice. It was nice and wasn't exactly cheap, even though Alice didn't use as much money as she would of for the Four Seasons, she still got us a nice place.
Now when I say barging in, I mean barging in. We literally kicked down the door to our room. And we were not doing what you think we were doing. Nope we literally jumped on the bed in exhaustion. The flight was a pain in the ass. We had a kid screaming just behind our seat. And for someone who doesn't like flying (mentally pointing at myself) a baby screaming put me even more on edge that I already was.
I managed to turn over so that I was facing Alice who was at the top end of the bed. She had her eyes closed, but I knew she wasn't asleep. I crawled closer to her and leaned my forehead against hers and wrapped my arm over her side. She did the same to me keeping her eyes closed.
And believe it or not, we both fell asleep. Weird huh.
"Bella..." no I wanna sleep...
"Wake up Bella..." nope...
"Five more minutes" I slurred
"Come on Bella, I got all undressed for you" …..wait, what?
My eyes shot open to see Alice leaning over me with a smirk on her face, I frowned and then looked down to see that she was fully clothed, I looked back to her face to see her smirking and then she doubled back in laughter,
"Wow Bella, it took you less than a second to open your eyes after I said that" she laughed and I glared at her, and rolled over onto my stomach, my face smothered into the duvet.
"You're evil" I mumbled into the quilt. She was then silent. I was about to get up and see what she was doing when I felt two hands rub up my back, and then I felt her sit down on the lower part, her knees I felt either side of me.
Oh my god. She is straddling my back.
She continued to rub up my body slowly and I could feel myself getting more and more aroused. And I could tell she was aswell. I could feel the heat on my back where she was sitting.
"Come on Bella, get up..." she whispered into my ear as she bent forward, I moaned at the feeling of her hands rubbing my back and the feel of her heat.
"I don't want to" I mumbled, and she was silent and then questioned,
"Why?" she asked and I chuckled lightly into the blanket,
"maybe because my girlfriend is sitting on top of me" I moaned and she then chuckled and continued massaging,
"Oh really, well then, I'll guess I will have to stop then wont I" she said and I quickly moved my arms from underneath me and placed them behind me to where her hips are, holding her in place.
"Bella! Come on, I wanna go out!" Alice whined and started moving slightly on top of me, and just that action of hers alone was making it harder to get up.
I finally decide to let go of her waist and she jumps off me walks in front on me and puts her hands on her hips and taps her foot.
"We can go for dinner somewhere, you know, a nice fancy place" she announced in a wistful tone. I looked up to her and saw that she was giving me the famous Alice pout. No! Not the pout.
"Fine!" I mumble through the blanket and I hear Alice's 'Squee' in response.
"Right, before we go though we have to go shopping for something nice to wear, I also need to get some more underwear for you Bella, I need to update your wardrobe, I might get some myself too" she declared and my head immediately looked up to her and shook my head.
"No...No Shopping!" I exclaimed and Alice frowned and sighed, and then she walked over to grab her bag and walked towards the door, I sat up and looked over to her,
"Where are you going?" I asked curiously, she turned around as she grabbed the door handle,
"Shopping... seen as my girlfriend wont go with me, I'll go by myself" she sighed again and opened the door,
"Alice..." I whined and she turned to look at me and smiled,
"Don't worry about it Bells, I'll just get the staff in Victoria Secret to help me with my underwear, there are drinks and snacks in the mini fridge, see you later" she said as she smirked and closed to the door behind her.
I just sat there in the middle of the bed going over her words.
Alice, plus Victoria Secret, plus underwear, plus the staff seeing her in said underwear and not me.
Hell no!
I jumped off of the bed grabbing my phone and the keys and barrelling towards the door nearly breaking it off the hinges. Trying to catch up with Alice.
But when I opened the door, there she was, smirking like the Cheshire cat,
"Took you long enough" she said as she held out her hand, I sighed, I chuckled to myself, then I grabbed her hand and looked into her gorgeous eyes,
"you sneaky fox" I stated and she laughed,
"Yeah but you love it, now come on, times a wastin'" she whispered and pulled me down the hall.
Looks like I'm in for a rude awakening..
and I don't mean the good kind of rude.
"Alice..." I whined as I carried the bags down the busy street following my shop-obsessed pixie,
"Bella we have only been shopping for four hours, you are such a weakling" she exclaimed stopping so that I could catch her up, I gawked at her as if she had a second head,
"Exactly! Four hours!" I whined and she rolled her eyes at me and wrapped her arms around me,
"Fine, fine we can finish now, it's just that I haven't been shopping like this since I went out to Port Ange-"
I listened as she stopped herself from talking, I knew what she was thinking about. The last time that she was in Port Angeles was the night that she was attacked. I shuddered at the memory, all I could see was her in that alley pinned against the wall by that creep.
I will never be able to erase that image from my mind. And I would do anything to take the pain away from her. I know from first hand experience that these things come back to haunt you, I know all too well after all that happened with Riley.
It was then that I heard a small sniffle come from Alice, I then dropped the bags and wrapped my arms around her not caring if we were in the middle of the street.
"It's okay Alice" I whispered, and rocked her gently as she sobbed quietly into my shoulder.
We stayed like that for a few more minutes and then she pulled back and looked into my eyes, she then smiled slightly and leaned forward and placed a chaste kiss of my lips,
"I love you" she whispered as she kept her eyes on mine, I smiled lovingly at her and placed my hand on her cheek caressing it.
"I love you too" I replied and placed another kiss on her lips. We never deepened the kiss, we just revelled in the intimate touch between us. Then I pulled back and smiled at her and picked the bags back up, I know one way to cheer her up,
"Come on, I guess we have some more shopping to do" I announced, I smiled at her and winked,
She looked at me with a confusion and shock across her face and then she smiled and linked my arm with hers as she spoke softly, not taking her eyes off mine.
"I guess we do"
