It's a Saturday morning, normally Bella wouldn't even consider leaving her bed before 12 but Alice invited her over for a girl's day today. Jasper, Emmett, and Edward were going with her uncle, Carlisle, on a camping trip in the mountains and they wouldn't return until Sunday night; so Alice invited Bella and Angela to watch movies at her house, Rosalie, of course, would be there too. And that was why at 10:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning Bella was in her Camaro driving towards the Cullen mansion. She remembered the route easily; there was only one road leading to and one road leading from, her heart beating rapidly at the chance to see Rosalie again.
As soon as her keys were out of the ignition the front door was being thrown open and a bouncing Alice was waiting for her at the steps, her smile lighting up her entire face.
"Bella, I'm glad you came. We are going to have so much fun today!" Bella nods at her words not knowing how to reply. Entering the doorway she is immediately startled at Alice's arms being thrown around her neck. "Angela's not here yet but Rose is in the game room down the hall" Alice points in the direction dragging Bella with her.
"So um..is she here all the time?" Bella questions following behind the energetic pixie, Alice shakes her head.
"No, she usually only comes over here on days that she sees Esmé, any other time we're at her house." Bella 'hmmm' in response.
They come to stop in front of large black double doors at the end of the hall; Alice pushes it open to reveal an expensive, in Bella's opinion, looking entertainment room. The walls are a dark purple with orange designs scattered across the surface, the carpet is a dark plush navy blue that seems extremely comfortable. There is an enormous flat screen television on the far wall; it could easily be 90 inches, one couch and two love seats shaped in a crescent form in the surrounding area. Gaming systems are sitting on the shelves next to hundreds of games and movies; a foosball table in the left corner, a pool table in the right, and an in-the-wall fish tank housing many tropical fish is against the adjacent wall. The best part to Bella though would be the popcorn and drink machine against the wall on the right of the door. Bella stares in awe at the massive room taking in all the features before her eyes land on blonde hair on one of the love seats. Once again, almost out of instinct, Rosalie's eyes find her own.
There's no connection this time, nothing to read in her gaze, Rosalie seems content and Bella blinks in surprise. The contentment goes away however when the blondes' stare travels down to Alice and Bella's connected hands. Instantly Bella drops her hand moving away from the black-haired woman, who giggles in reaction.
"Look who's here Rose!" Bella turns to Rosalie with a raised eyebrow silently asking her question.
"Is she always this excited?" Rosalie gives a small smile. Bella and Alice gasp. Alice, Bella assumes is because Rosalie doesn't smile; and Bella because the most beautiful girl in the world just got even more stunning. Bella decides right then and there that she will spend the rest of her life trying to make her smile. Alice doesn't get the chance to comment because the doorbell rings, bringing her out of her shock.
"That should be Angela, I'll be right back" Bella watches Alice leave the room, the doors closing behind her.
"Hi" she whispers looking back at the blonde. Rosalie stares, Bella moves to stand beside the chair. "Can I sit?" Rosalie removes her extended legs bending them at the knee to make room for her. Well this is awkward Bella thinks what should I say?
The room is silent, the only sound is of their light breathing filling the room; Bella looks to Rosalie, her head is down and she is staring at her nails. She notices her attire, laid back gray sweatpants, and a small black t-shirt. Unable to resist she reaches out gently touching the blondes face, Rosalie intakes a breath of air her eyes suddenly finding Bella's. Bella moves her hand to caress her cheek softly. The connection is back but this time Bella doesn't speak with her eyes, she uses her mouth instead, voicing the words swimming around in her head.
