Bella
Never in my life would I have guessed I'd live in Paris, be a famous artist, be fashionable, beautiful, and live young forever. Life is just weird.
Alice
I was dead bored and sad, it's been 50 years since I've gone on a good shopping trip and been happy, shopping doesn't seem fun anymore, it doesn't feel like anything anymore.
But today that was going to change, Jasper and I had a date in Paris and I was determined for us to both look delightful, we were in Paris after all, might as well do something.
I walked into the sweet we were staying in and danced over to Jasper laying on the bed reading a book. My hands reached up for the book he was reading and then it flew onto the bedside table.
"Hello, sweetheart," he chuckles kissing the my hand and pulling me to him, I was excited, only two more hours till a good shopping spree, and I was determined to be my old self for one day, for Jasper.
My lips press hard on his, the shock of electricity between us was shocking. I giggled at my own joke and a grin lit Jasper's face.
"What's so funny, my love?" He whispers into my ear. I smile and tore his shirt off, I was going to go farther when I had a vision, I saw us going into an art shop next to my favorite dress shop, it wasn't exactly raining, but it was dark, and the place was still open. The moon was still out, like now.
My feet were on the floor and before I knew it I was diving for clothes you'd where at this time of day for both me and Jasper. I heard a groan and looked back to see Jasper pouting on the bed, I giggled tossing him his clothes.
"Sorry, hon, but we have an appointment at the art store, so hurry up." His eyebrows went up but he did what he was told and got dressed.
"You didn't give me any boxers," he points out. I give him a mischievous grin.
"I don't know what we're doing but when we get back we have business to get taken care of, I wish we didn't have to go now, but it wouldn't of shown me this without a reason." I reason with his with a sigh. He grins and kisses my forehead.
"Then let's hope for a drive thru rather than a fancy diner, shall we." He laughs, I laugh at his common sense.
I dressed him in trousers and an evening sweater like mine, but mine was a fuzzy pink. I had a slim skirt that showed all my curves, and a pair of expensive high heels. We hurried to my favorite shop, Jasper held onto me tight as we passed pretty boutiques and bakeries, I wondered why an art shop would be open.
It didn't take long to find, it was a nice place, with a Ferrari parked outside a bright yellow, the lights inside were lit.
"Let's get this over with," I smiled at Jasper and he nodded but was tense, I didn't know why until the smell it hit me. For a moment I thought Bella, but then scuffed at myself, then it became stronger, vampires. 2 of them. We approached and heard laughing. We entered and saw no one other than Bella.
Bella
I'd realized I hadn't gone to the art shop in a full week and put that on my priority list, I had to go at night to see my old friend. I decided to go then, we were both vampires after all, the place was next to my favorite fashion shop, I could so imagine Alice going there.
I walked inside and was hit with the smell of friends, I grinned.
"Miss Isabella Marie Kasei, it's so nice to see you back here, I almost thought you'd stop painting, or even worse, you'd stop shopping here." Algernon said.
"Ha, you know I'd never do that to you, and you know I will never stop painting them. I miss the Cullen's, if I wasn't stuck on this one painting of Esme and Edward together, plus a bunch of annoying customers, then I'd be here every day. I've missed you so much." I laugh walking up to him. I gave a peck on each side of his cheeks and he did the same to me.
"Hmm, je ne pense pas que ma dame, belle essayer si." He scuffs. (Hmm, I don't think so my lady, nice try though)-translate
"Enfin de toute façon , que pensez-vous de ma nouvelle robe?" I grin turning in a circle. (Well anyway, what do you think of my new dress?)
"Tourner, tourner, ahh, vous regardez belle comme toujours, je n'aime comment celui-ci envoie hors un rideau se sentir bien, Mais j'aime le bleu foncé. (Turn, turn, ahh, you look beautiful as always, I do like how this one sends off a certain feel though. But I like the dark blue.)
"Moi aussi, il se sent comme Alice de choisi celui-là aussi , oh , je dois aller robe shopping pour Alice , je dois tonnes de fournitures ." I giggle. (I do too, it feels like Alice would of chosen this one too, oh, I have to go dress shopping for Alice, I need tons of supplies.)
"Je pourrais demander autour sur les Cullens, vous pouvez réellement les trouver au lieu d'écrire et de les peindre." He says sincerely. (I could ask around on the Cullens, you could actually find them instead of writing and painting them.)
I was going to say something when I heard the bell ring, I looked over at the door and froze, if my dead cold heart could beat again, it would. I stared at the magnificent Alice and her husband, Jasper.
All I could do was stare, she was here, I didn't know how to feel, I was happy I was with Algernon, and at my second home, it helped a lot, or that could be Jasper. But I was too frozen.
"Alice, is that really you? Algernon, you can see he to, right? I'm not just hallucinating because I was talking about her?" I ask a little stupidly.
"Well, either we both stared at your art work of her too long, or she's really here, so… I'd go for she's really here." He shrugs. "Now Isabella, don't stare, what have I told you." I shake free of it and dance over, graving both of her hands, pulling her to each side I kissed the side of each cheek, then smiled.
"Bonjour , mademoiselle." I grinned. I went up to Jasper and did the same except instead I said, "Bonjour monsieur." Then walked back to Algernon.
"Bella? You're a… a… vampire? How, and who's he?" She nods towards Algernon.
"Sorry, Bonjour Mademoiselle." He grins taking her left hand and kissing it, then he shakes Jasper's hand, "Bonjour Monsieur, welcome to the great art store." He grins going back behind the counter.
"Knock it off, Algernon, Alice, Jasper, this is Algernon, my creator. Algernon, I'm guessing you already know who these two vamps are." I grin and walk back over to stand in front of the counter.
"Of course! The great Alice and Jasper Cullens, the center of your artwork, so forth and so forth. No ffense, Belle, but do you mind taking this interdiction back to your work house, not that I don't want you here anymore, but I think they should see fir themselves." He winks.
"Alright, Alice, Jasper, do you mind waiting here while I real fast get everything?" I ask politely. Alice jumps at me and gives me a huge hug.
"Of course we'll wait on you Belle… or Bella, ugh, hurry up so we can get this all sorted out." We laugh and I grave a color of everything, get the newest of things. So forth. The minute I was done, the price was over 6,000 dollars and had Jasper and Alice gaping while I paid. They helped me carry it to the Ferrari.
Alice was still gaping; I had a four seater Ferrari for times like this. I put everything in, we were all about to get in when I gasped. They both looked at me scared.
"Alice! What on earth are you wearing?! Your in Paris, Shish, didn't you get the memo? Oh! Oh! You can go shopping with me tomorrow, and Jasper will have to come of course! Eek!" I shrieked in Pure bliss. " Hop in!" Jasper sat in back and Alice sat in the back next to him.
