A/N: Well, this is my first twilight fic... Hope you like it.

Summary: Bella goes to Port Angeles by herself, and meets someone unexpected. Note: In between twilight and new moon.

Bella:

"Edward, I'm going." I said, getting slightly exasperated at his overprotective nature, "I have to go shopping. For girl stuff." I tried to make this as clear as possible, not wanting him to think I didn't want to be around him.

"Can't you take Angela or someone? I mean, remember what happened last time?" He too sounded annoyed, but resigned.

I shuddered at the memory of my old "friends" and how I had to be saved like a child. But really, occasionally a person needed to go shopping. And sometimes the things she had to get were not the type of things she wanted others to see. "Edward, I'm not taking Angela to do this particular type of shopping. I really don't think she needs to see what I need to buy."

"Bel, I'll go with you. I can wait outside of the store if you want."

I rolled my eyes and said, "Look, I'll be fine. Really. I have to do some shopping. By myself."

He looked accepting. "I suppose it would be fine if I dropped you off and picked you up." I agreed, and we went downstairs. I told Charlie my plans, and he-ironically- gave me absolutely no trouble. How is it that my boyfriend was more protecting than my father? Oh, right. He's a vampire. We got in his Volvo and drove off. It was supposed to be an hour-long drive, but with Edwards unwillingness to obey the law we made it in 25 minutes. I had him let me out by the bookstore, so he wouldn't see exactly where I was going. I mean, I knew he would see me through the clerk's head, but still, the words were just way too hard to say.

I got out of the car, unwilling to be away from him, but even less willing to have him present for my little shopping excursion. I walked down the long, narrow street, this time knowing the way this time. I walked to the nearest clothing store, not even bothering to check the name of the place. (I was never one for brand names. You pay hundreds of dollars for a word embroidered on the bottom of your shirt? I mean, really!) I went straight to the women's section, purchased the items that I needed, and checked out, trying not to blush when a male clerk rang me up. I walked out, most likely a deep shade of red, and began to walk down to the wharf. I still had half an hour before I needed to meet Edward, and watching the sun set over the water would be nice. I sat down on the slightly sad excuse for a beach, and looked out over the red waters. It was a salt pond, so it even smelled like the ocean. I spread out on the sand and closed my eyes, listening to the sound of the small waves made by the wind.

Eventually I guess I sank into a reverie, so I didn't hear the footsteps behind me, and I only felt the hands on me, holding me down, when it was far too late to act.

Edward:

I was waiting in my car, listening to Linkin Park, one of the better bands in this decade, trying very hard not to eavesdrop. I knew she wouldn't want me to know what she was doing, because whatever it was, it was clearly personal. I wouldn't think she would be embarrassed around me anymore, but maybe some things were just still too personal for her to share with me. I couldn't help but hear however. The clerk who rang her up was clearly experiencing feelings for her, and noticing her extreme embarrassment. I saw what he was holding in his hand and ringing up. OH. I thought. THAT's what she was buying that she didn't want me to know about. Of course... We still haven't... Well, now it makes sense. I saw her walking out of the store, beet red, then nothing.

Several minutes later I picked her up in someone else's thoughts. But they weren't innocent like the unknowing clerk. They were malicious, and angry. They were those of....

A/N: CLIFFIE!!! :D Don't worry, I'll update soon. Please review!!!
