Seraph

38

Everyone had dressed in their Sunday best and gone to the car show together. It was very cramped in the car, but no one complained. Once they arrived, Rosalie led the way while dragging Serafina along. Serafina had no complaints and just smiled the whole way. She didn't even care that she was pulled along like a rag doll.

Those in the outdoor area of the car show looked over at them. And they recognized the two young ladies in front. They were kicking themselves for having disregarded them the day before. Although they remained professional and introduced the vehicles to the two, they didn't try very hard. They had heard from the inside vendors that the brunette had purchased a luxury sports car on the spot the day before. They couldn't believe their bad luck. Seeing the two again leading a group of other seemingly well-off individuals, they thought their luck had turned and they could redeem themselves.

The salesmen were sorely mistaken. The two women would, of course, hold a grudge. They all listened to the pitch but left immediately after the introduction of the vehicle. No questions would be asked. Rosalie would ask questions the day before, but they would direct her to the pamphlet or even say it would be too difficult to explain. She wouldn't bother today. The family could tell the attitudes of the two women and followed their lead.

They eventually made their way inside and completely bypassed the Jaguar stall. The salesman knew the ins and outs as well. He gritted his teeth as he watched the family ignore him altogether. The other salesmen inside were much more courteous to Rosalie the day before. There were a few that stood out significantly. But she still enjoyed the BMW stall the most.

They all gathered and spoke with that salesman about the vehicles. But the cars currently there were more on the sporty side. Carlisle decided they needed another family vehicle, so he wasn't interested. Rosalie understood his wants and took them all to the Mercedes stall. Mercedes was her second favorite stall of their trip yesterday. But while leaving she saw the BMW salesman give Serafina a wink. Her curiosity was piqued, but she had to ignore it to head to the Mercedes stall. It didn't mean she would forget. She would ask later. She had several questions for the Doña after all.

"Aren't the cars in here a little too eye-catching?" Edward complained, "Shouldn't we try to blend in better?"

"He's a handsome doctor slash surgeon that is wealthy enough at a young age to take care of six adoptive teenagers with his beautiful wife," Serafina looked at Edward as though he was stupid, "it would be weirder if he drove a regular car like everyone else."

Edward rolled his eyes at her response while the other teens nodded their agreement with Serafina. Carlisle and Esme just chuckled.

"He already drives a Mercedes; it's a bit on the older side but still good. He might as well stick with what he knows," Rosalie commented.

"He can just give that one to Esme and get a new one. His and hers!" Emmett suggested.

"His and hers was my intention," Carlisle smiled, "but the new one will be for Esme. As Rosie said, I'll stick with what I know and am very comfortable with my car. But I would like for Esme to have a vehicle as well. Then we don't have to pile on each other like we did to get here."
