The Beach

(A/N: Hey smexies! Early apologies bad grammar and/or spelling errors! My pro-ness at 'crastinating' prevents me from reading this again. Anyway, this chapter is a filler to me, but I hope you like it!)
"Excited?" Alec asked. He was carrying a ton of bags, but he paid no mind to it, giving me full attention.
"Of course," I answered with an excited smile. "It sounds like a once in a lifetime thing."
Instead of going to Brazil or Argentina, we'd decided to go to Puerto Rico so he could do some 'business'.
"Yeah well, I technically went there in my second lifetime," he pointed out in a rather amused tone.
"Close enough," I said, sticking my tongue out at him. I faced the stairs to the private jet and frowned.
"What's wrong?" he asked. From the corner of my eye, I saw him raising one of his eyebrows with concern.
"I'm pretty sure I'm going to trip before getting my foot on the stairs," I said, eyeing the steps cautiously.
He laughed and my knees almost gave away. Why is he so hot? I remembered this feeling I had before. Every time Edward had—I shook my head, as if the thoughts would fly away, and focused on Alec instead.
Moving all the bags to his left hand, he slipped his arm around my waist and hugged my body gently to his cold one, gracefully gliding into the jet.
My shirt rid up a little, and his arm lingered for a moment on my warm flesh before letting go. He was looking at me intensely with his blood-red eyes. I bit the bottom of my lip, anxious to know what was happening next. Would he kiss me?
He noticed the look on my face, quickly flashing me a bright smile and fully pulling away from me. The queasiness gradually left me, and I smiled back tentatively.
"I'm just putting this away and get the rest of them," he said. "Don't miss me too much."
I rolled my eyes and decided to familiarize myself of roomy jet that I hadn't had the chance to admire yet. There were leather couches on the sides and a large flat screen on the corner that faced the corner on the opposite side. Everything in the jet just screamed luxury, including the cup holders.
Suddenly, something touched my shoulder and I nearly jumped a mile high, startled.
"You almost reached my height," Emmett laughed.
Ignoring his comment I asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you just demand that the world leave you and Rosalie alone for they day and, 'Even if the bed is on fire, don't come into the room'?"
"Heh, well. We finished a round, babe. Anyway, I'm here! Hasn't your day brightened up more? Hell yeah it has. Aro ordered that at least six of us had to accompany you. And I'm one of them!" Emmett said with a goofy smile. I raised my eyebrows at that. (Yeah, I didn't know how to cock one of my eyebrows out, like a certain gorgeous vampire I know of.) It was weird, come to think of it, why he'd need more people to come with the human instead of just one.
"And who's the oth-"
"Me!" Jane, Rosalie and Alice chirped, whereas Jasper and Felix popped up behind them with a smile.
"To be honest, it was the girls who kept begging to go with you, and Emmett, Felix and I just thought we should come along," Jasper explained.
I grinned at the six of them, feeling my excitement grow, radiating from Jasper.

"Holy shitcakes, the view is awesome, and it smells good here!" Emmett cried out happily. He enjoyed the view, knowing he couldn't go out unless he wanted to look like a walking disco ball on steroids. "Rose! It smells good here!"

Rosalie rolled her eyes, pecking his cheek. She was currently unpacking her bazillion bags for the one-week stay we were having and constantly checking the time, hoping it would soon be nighttime.
Alec and I were sitting on the only couch of the room, and I could feel the couch shake a little as he laughed at Emmett.
Too fast for my eyes to see, his hands shot out and he swiftly, albeit gently, set me on his lap.
He hugged me closer to his body as we eyed the room. I just met him a few days ago, but staying in his arms felt good. It felt safe. I smiled in content.
"We should go swimming!" Emmett suggested enthusiastically. "Let's find us a damn kraken, guys. Maybe in the Bermuda Triangle?"
I rolled my eyes. I barely even knew how to swim. In my case, I'd probably manage to break open the elevator and fall to my death before even reaching the beach.
Oh, woe is me.
Noticing my discomfort, Rose quickly spoke up. "Em, you and the guys go do that. I think Bella, Alice, Jane, and I can just spend the day at the spa and catch up, maybe get a little more sexier. It can't hurt to get any sexier," she said with a serious look.
Emmett grinned at her, kissing the side of her lips.
"Guys!" Alice said, bouncing into our one-bed-room. "Let's go shopping!"

It was now 6, so there really was no one on the beach, save for a few lifeguards here and there, and a few tourists who unknowingly tanned in the darkness.
The sun was still out, but it was setting, only making the sky a dim orange.
The boys were at the shoreline, just walking along the water.
"Hey, Bella!"
I turned slightly, smiling at the enthusiastic Alice skip toward me, tugging Rosalie and Jane with her.
"So when're you gonna take off the towel?" she asked, raising an eyebrow and turning her head back and forth to Alec then me.

We had just finished seven lifetimes-worth of shopping; Alice buying over twenty bikinis for me. One which I'm wearing right now. (By force, obviously.)

"When you guys lose your eyesight," I said with a pout.

"Yeah, too bad!" she flashed her 100-watts smile before tugging my towel off and exposing me completely. Mortified, I cried out, "Alice!"
"Ha! I told you a two-piece would look fabulous on you!" Alice giggled.
I blushed as I heard Emmett and Felix wolf-whistle. Rosalie and Jane gushed at how I looked hot.
I looked up to see Alec grinning at me, And my blush deepened. Oh, I could definitely get used to that.

Author's Note:
Yay! I finished! Apologies for the such a late update, but I'm glad I could literally sit down and type up the beach chapter.
Thank you for all the reviews, follows and favorites!
Anyway, updates will most definitely be much more frequent AND longer; I have huge, gigantic, enormous–and a bunch of other synonyms for big–plans for the story!

Keep dreaming beyond, lovelies!
