Instead of focusing on the possible awkwardness that would appear since Victoria was staying I absorbed Jasper projected extreme happiness that was coming off of Alice. Esme clapped excitedly.
"Carlisle and I are going to our Island for a while. Please don't reck the house."
She looked at Emmet skeptically and everyone laughed.
I walked upstairs dreading all the clothes I had to try on but was surprised to see only a few bags in the closet.
"Those are the ones I have to see you in."
It was still a lot but I figured Rosalie gave me a show so I'd give her one. I put on my first outfit which was a more fashionable version of my usual outfits. I walked out without falling over the bags.
"Rose what do you think?"
She smiled and placed her hand under her chin.
"Very cute."
I went back in and changed into a white top, a short dark denim skirt and high heels that Rose insisted I wear and stumbled out.
"You look like a secretary that any boss would want to bang."
I laughed and looked at her skeptically.
"Yeah right."
Rose gave me one of those 'really' looks.
"Bella you are absolutly beautiful. I know you don't think so but I wouldn't lie to you. You are perfect. You have to be a secretary on Halloween and I'll be your boss or you can be a student and I a teacher. That would be very sexy."
I blushed and walked back into the closet. As soon as I changed I creaked the door open.
"Time for fun wear."
I put on a black laced corrset with black boy shorts and left my heels on. I walked out nervously and Rose's eyes turned jet black, she growled and was in front of me in a second.
"Rose?"
She kissed me fiercely and my legs turned into jello. I felt her cold hands hold me up and she pressed her body against mine. I was a little weary when she sniffed me but I was beyond thinking when she started to kiss my neck. I felt her teeth grazing my neck but I wasn't afraid. I could trust her. A second later Alice was in the room exasperated
."Rose don't do it!"
Alice pushed Rose away from me. I was completely embarrassed, went back into the closet, and changed. I walked out and Rose was dry sobbing.
"Bella I'm so sorry please forgive me."
I sat next to her.
"Rose it's okay."
She stared at me like I was crazy.
"Bella it's not okay I almost killed you. If Alice hadn't of stopped me . . .We can't try to be 'together' if I can't handle that, it's not safe."
I caressed her face cheek and stated into her pain filled eyes.
"You wouldn't have hurt me. I want to be with you. Rose I love you."
She sighed exasperated.
"Bella you can't be so sure of me it's not safe."
Why must she be filled with so much self doubt?
"I trust you with my life."
She shook her head and ran out the room. Alice walked in immediately.
"Bella, Rose is really upset. She almost killed you. You have to understand. She can't control herself when she sees you like that so no fun wear for you until your changed. She's not going to want to take a chance but you can get her to open up. She'll be back in 15 minutes."
I walked outside and felt cool arms around me but it was off. I looked up and saw James with a sinister grin.
"Bella you made things way to easy. I was just scoping but you just walked out all alone. You have one more chance. Stay with me or you die."
I started screaming.
"No let go. I hate you!"
Rose ran out of no where.
"She's mine!"
Rose hissed as she got closer and James grabbed my hair.
"So she's your mate. If you get any closer I'll snap her neck."
He looked at me and chuckled.
"I'm going to have to teach you a lesson. You don't run away from me."
He cut my arm with his nail and tasted it.
"Exquisite."
After laughing at Rose he bit into my neck. The pain was beyond fire and acid combined. I tried to hold back my screams for Rose's sake but I couldn't.
"Stop it!"
The rest of my screams came out as weird grunts. He sucked the venom out and bit me again. I felt like I was losing consciousness. Rose knelled in front of James.
"Please stop."
He shook his head and grabbed my breast just to taunt her. Rosalie snarled loudly.
"Rose I love you."
James pulled my arm out of it's socket.
"Fuck!"
A few seconds later I was thrown the ground. I looked up and saw Victoria hitting James like there was no tomorrow. Before I could see the end Rose picked me up and everything faded to black. God my body was so sore. I creaked my eyes open to see Rose was staring at me with worried eyes.
"R-Rose."
I tried to move but it hurt so bad.
"Bella I'm so sorry . . . he got away. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. I'm a horrible girlfriend."
He's still alive!
"You're an amazing girlfriend. This isn't your fault."
Girlfriend didn't seem like a serious title to me. Before I could say something better Victoria walked in.
"This is all my fault. Bella I'm so sorry."
I didn't feel the need to console her so I just shrugged.
"It's okay."
She frowned at me and left. I peered down at my arms, there was dirt, and blood all over.
"Rose can you help me shower?"
She lifted me up, it felt so good to be in her cool arms. I slowly undressed trying to do so without pain. My arm was killing me! Rose stared at me with dark eyes but she got in the shower with me anyway.
I couldn't help but stare at her flawless body. Every inch of her was mine, from the top of her golden blond hair, to her perfectly proportioned perky breasts, down to her sexy long legs. But of course I could only manage to stare at her breasts and just the sight of them caused my heart to race.
"Bella calm down."
How could I calm down? I pressed my lips to her sweet cool ones. I pressed my wet body against hers and moaned at the contact of our nipples. She hissed and stared at me hungrily but when I tried to kiss her but she stopped me.
"I can't."
I stepped back a little upset.
"What I can't even kiss you anymore?"
She pinched her nose and shook her head.
"We're in the shower. If you kiss me I don't think I could control myself."
I stumbled out of the shower, got dressed, and kissed Rose but I could tell she was guarded because she pulled away quickly. She started to talk but I ignored her and walked to Alice's room.
"Alice can we go out? I want to talk to you."
She carried me out into the forest.
"So what's going on?"
I sighed and started pacing.
"Rose is so guarded now."
Alice sat on a rock and shrugged.
"Bella she's hiding how upset she is for almost killing you. It's going to take some time. She also is very upset she couldn't protect you."
Time isn't something I have especially when Rose hasn't agreed to changing me yet.
"Alice I love Rose so much. She's the sun in my sky. I want her to be happy because I'm only happy when she is. She is apart of me and I can't stand seeing her like this. She did protect me because if she hadn't of came he would've killed me."
Alice nodded understandingly.
"You have to get her to see all of that. If she was my girlfriend I'd take her somewhere romantic just for the heck of it."
Girlfriend isn't strong enough for the feelings I have for her. Why is this nagging me?
"I know this is fast but I want to marry her." Wait what did I just say? Alice squealed and hugged me.
"Oh my god that's wonderful."
I smile widely even if I hadn't meant to tell Alice.
"Don't tell anyone. Alice can you help me buy a ring?"
She jumped up and down.
"Of course let's go." She drove us to Jared. I walked in and was stunned at all of the jewelry.
"Alice this is so expensive."
She shook her head. "You haven't even seen the prices yet. Besides I could by everything in here and still be loaded."
I walked to the counter and saw a beautiful ring. It was silver and had small diamonds surrounding a large one.
"Alice this is the one."
The cashier gawked at her as she bought the ring. "Miss...would you like to go out sometime?"
Alice managed to look genuinely sorry.
"I already have my eyes on someone but if it doesn't work out I will be back."
To bad he didn't know she was lying. I imagined him looking up with a huge smile every time the door opened just to be disappointed for weeks.
We left the store.
"How much did it cost?"
She smirked. "I'm not telling you."
I frowned.
"I want to pay you back. This is my wife's ring."
She sighed over dramatically. "Well if you must know it was three thousand dollars and no I'm not getting a cheaper one. This is thee ring."
Oh my god, three thousand dollars! She sped us back home. I walked in and Rose was on the couch. The ring felt like a ton of bricks in my pocket. I sat on her lap and wrapped my arms around her neck. She smiled and pecked me on the lips.
"Rose can we go somewhere?"
She seemed to be over the James thing.
"Where do you want to go?"
I shrugged.
"I was thinking out of the country. If that's not to much."
She held me by my waist.
"Nothing's too much for you."
Emmet entered the room and gagged. I looked into Rose's eyes and could tell she was acting happy for my sake. I'll take what she gives me.
"Can we go to London?"
She smiled and nodded.
"We should get packing."
Rose carried me upstairs. She packed everything quickly but stopped and looked at me when she got to the Victoria's Secret bag.
"No fun wear for me since you can't handle it but take lots of fun wear for you."
She chuckled and finished packing at vampire speed then laid next to me and held me in her cool arms.
"Rose I love you. I know your upset that James hurt me because you weren't there to stop him. Truthfully you saved me because if you didn't show up he would of killed me. None of this is your fault."
She sighed and kissed my cheek.
"I know but it still hurts."
I brushed the hair out of her face and kissed her letting all of my love for her pour through. Her sweet lips were just as loving against mine. I place my hand on her bare waist and traced patterns as I nipped her bottom lip. I smiled into the kiss when she groaned but frowned when she pulled away.
"Bella I love you so much but you should get some sleep we have to leave tomorrow."
I sighed and reluctantly went to sleep while she hummed.
