I own none of these amazing characters. Stephenie Meyer does!
Bella's point of view
I glanced out the kitchen window as I continued to wash my breakfast dishes. I sighed. Even though I had seen Edward just thirty minutes ago, the distance and time apart was still taking a toll on me. As I was putting my bowl on the rack to dry, I heard a horn honk from outside. Finally. I grabbed my jacket and purse off the table along with a small glass bottle, and headed for the door. "Bye Dad!" I called in the direction of the family room, where Charlie was spending his day off. As I opened the door I heard him mumble something. It was either some form of goodbye or displeasure at me spending the day with Edward. Again. Edward had come to take me over to his house. The reason to him, as why I wanted to go, was unknown. As I went to reach for the car door handle, a cold firm arm wrapped around my waist. Edward pulled me to his chest and smiled down at me. "Good morning" his breath brushed across my face, and I inhaled deeply. I smiled back at him and said, " Long time no see". His silver laugh floated over me pulling me under his spell. I stood on my tipsy toes to press my lips into his.
As soon as we were in the car Edward noticed the small glass bottle in my hand. "What's that?" he took his eyes off the road to glance at the bottle. I turned the bottle over in my hands, almost dropping, as I talked. "It's perfume. Alice told me I needed to learn how to pick it out. I bought it from a street seller. That's why I need to go to your house, so she can smell it." Edward bunched up his nose. " You smell fine just the way you are." I rolled my eyes and looked out the window. " Alice seems to think it's something I have to know. She doesn't think I have a good enough sense of smell." Which I hardly think is fair; I thought to myself, counting her sense of smell is ten times better than mine. Edward, practically reading my mind says " she seems to think she can build your sense of smell up to her standards. Which is impossible." I look over at him and see he is tense, knowing what I'll say. " Not totally impossible.' I say quietly not wanting to start a disagreement. The subject of me becoming a vampire was still really touchy.
As soon as we arrived I jumped out of the Volvo and tried to beat Edward into the house. I was unsuccessful, of course. When I did reach the house Edward and Alice were talking. Well, I shouldn't say talking since no words were being said, but I know they were communicating, because of Edward's head gestures. When I walked closer Alice turned from Edward to shine a glowing smile on me. " Bella!!!!!!! Edward told me that you brought some perfume for me to smell!!" Edward started to growl. "Alice of course she picked out something that smells nice!" Edward stormed away from Alice's mind and up the stairs. I stretched out my arm and handed Alice the perfume. "I think it smells really nice." I glanced toward the stairs to see if Edward was heading back. Alice opened the bottle and brought it to her nose. "Oh my god, that smells amazing!" I stared at Alice. I hadn't thought it smelled that good. Alice started to sway a bit and was still holding the perfume bottle to her sensitive nose. "Wow, pretty colours!" She out the top back on the bottle and threw it to me. Which on her part was not such a great idea. I reached out my hand to catch it, and watched it fall right past me and onto the ground. It shattered into a million pieces, and started to spread the intoxicating smell.
Hope you enjoyed this! If I can figure out how to, I will post a second chapter!
