Bella breathes out a huge gust of air, staring at her reflection in the mirror; she told Rosalie to dress casually and she was doing the same. Eyeing her tight black jeans, white blouse, with a red and black vest covering it she releases another breath, running her hands through her slight curly hair. Okay Bella she thinks you can do this, you said six it's time to go. With one last quick glance, she grabs the CD, notepad, cell phone, and keys from her desk exiting her room.

To her surprise, Jasper is the one to open the front door; Bella assumed he would be at the Cullen's with Alice. Clearing her throat Bella hides her shock, giving the male twin a tiny smile.
"Hey Jasper, is um Rosalie ready?" Everyone with the exception of Charlie knew of the date between the two girls, but they were also advised by Esmé to not make a spectacle of the event.
"She's coming down now" he drawls out gazing down intently at Bella. The sound of footsteps approaching averts Jasper's eyes briefly from Bella as he glances behind him. "Be careful with her" is whispered before he steps aside allowing Bella to see Rosalie.
Rosalie is wearing a black and white striped shirt and nicely fitting black dress pants; her shinning blonde hair was straighten and thrown over left shoulder. Bella stared at the blonde amazed that after all this time Rosalie still seemed to take her breath away; she barely noticed Jasper closing the front door as she tried to come to her senses.
"You ready?" Bella questions gazing up into her eyes; Rosalie nods and Bella takes her hand leading her to the Camaro.

Bella parks her car outside of the Bar and Grill, rotating her body to face her silent date.
"Is this okay? I didn't want to go to some fancy uncomfortable place" she chuckles, tugging nervously at the ends of her hair. Rosalie smiles and Bella sees the glint of amusement in her sapphire orbs.
"I wasn't sure if you were hungry so I thought we could stop by here first" noticing the curiosity in the blondes' eyes Bella elaborates further. "This um- isn't where I want to take you" she speaks quietly staring at her.
A moment later she exits the car going over to the passenger side to open the door for Rosalie; once the blonde is standing next to her hand attached, Bella grabs the notepad and they walk inside. The girls are seated, per Bella's request, at a small booth in the corner of the restaurant sitting next to each other. After drinks are ordered Bella looks to her date handing over the notepad.
I don't know what to talk about; we already spend so much time together Bella muses gazing at her companion.
"I um-" Rosalie turns her attention to Bella patiently waiting for the brunette to speak. "Wow, this is harder than I thought" Bella laughs. "Is there anything you wanted to talk about?" She watches as Rosalie opens the notebook, beginning to write a sentence.
How is your Mom?
Bella smiles at her, grateful for the easy topic.
"She's fine, still as free as ever" she replies leaning back into her seat. "Can we work on my car tomorrow? Or do you have to speak with Esmé?" Bella gives the waitress a polite smile when she places the drinks on the table; watching the blonde mark the paper.
Esmé and Carlisle have an event. You can come over. Bella goes to respond but pauses as she notices that Rosalie begins to write again.
Can we leave? Bella stares up into the blondes' eyes confused, she observes the tentative look in the orbs; and nods trusting her mute friend.

For the second time that night Bella parks her car turning to Rosalie, this time however it is on the cliffs that Charlie use to take her to when she was younger. Waterfall Trail was the most, in Bella's opinion, beautiful and peaceful spot in Forks and she wanted to share it with the blonde.
