What about these?" Bella asks pointing to the tires on her laptop screen. She looks up to her mute blonde friend waiting for approval and sighs when Rosalie shakes her head; causing her to resume her search.

"You know, I'm starting to feel like I'm shopping with Alice" Bella chuckles as Rosalie responds by lightly pushing her shoulder.

It's been three weeks since Bella's 'session' with Esme and Bella could only describe the time as perfect. Her and Rosalie have become closer than ever, spending all of their free time together; the blonde began smiling more which in turn caused Bella to smile even more. Bella still never pushed Rosalie to speak, allowing the taller woman time, however there was an improvement on their conversations. Contact, for example, though she was still skeptic when it came to outside people Rosalie had no problem with more physical contact between the two of them.

The girls also began fixing up Bella's Camaro; though the process was much more than Bella had expected. Right now for instance, both of the girls are inside of Rosalie's garage searching for the perfect tires to match her design. Bella is sitting in her normal spot, her computer on the table as she scrolls through the website; Rosalie is standing next to the brunette her eyes trained on the laptop screen.

"Do you want to maybe try again tomorrow?" Bella questions once again looking up to Rosalie; Rosalie nods her head before going over to the Camaro lifting the hood. Bella's brown orbs follow her wondering what the blonde would be doing next.

"No, no, no, not today!" Alice shouts coming into the garage. "It's Halloween, you two are coming over to my house so that we can dress up and watch scary movies" the pixie huffs pointing at the two girls.

"But it's only four o'clock" Bella responds closing her laptop.

"Exactly, it will take at least an hour to get ready, so let's go!" Alice crosses her arms across her chest tapping her foot on the ground and Bella groans moving to exit the garage.

"I guess there's no point in arguing with you about this?" Alice beams up at Bella.

"Nope" she chirps turning to Rosalie. "Shower and change here then come over..?" Alice turns her words into a question staring at the blonde and Bella gazes over to see Rosalie give a small nod. "Great let's go Bella!" She grabs Bella's hand pulling her to the Cullen home.

The moment they walk inside of the house Bella is stunned at the Halloween décor, they did all of this is one day? she thinks eyeing the room. Despite all of the windows in the house, the room seemed to be dark and eerie; there were spider webs covering the couches, pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns scattered throughout the room, the windows had either black curtains or stickers hiding most of light, and from what Bella could see there are skeletons sitting at the dining room table.

"Wow" Bella breathes out taking it all in; Alice releases a giggle at her astonishment. "You guys do this every year?" she asks rotating to face her companion.

"Yup, it's a family tradition! Do you like it?" Bella nods trailing behind Alice to her room.

"I'm not wearing that" Bella states staring at Alice.

"But why" the pixie whines out a pout on her face.

"Because I don't even know what it is Alice."

"It's a pirate costume Bella" Alice deadpans returning Bella's stare.

"I have never seen a pirate with a short skirt before" Alice sighs giving Bella a pleading look.

"Please Bells; you can wear the boots to go with them."
