A/N: With tears in our eyes, we must still say that we don't own Twilight.

I stepped out of the car and looked to my left. The first building that I saw was a small restaurant that I presumed was attached to the hotel. "Mon Cafe" was it's name. What an original name for a cafe. Who would have thought of that name?
Although its name was lacking in creativity, it wasn't ugly by any means. The outside was stone, just like the conjoined hotel. Both were quite quaint. No matter how much I may have been fine with leaving them both as they were, I could tell by the gleam in Alice's eyes that she would be out and redecorating and redesigning them in no time.
The restaurant was two floors tall, and the hotel was five. From the street, I could see that the roof of the hotel was flat, and a garden had been planted there. I sighed, thinking how romantic the hotel would become. If only I had a romantic interest to share it with.
"As you've probably figured out, the building on the left is your cafe or restaurant, whatever you choose to make it into. I just hired three capable--and delicious--men to work there for you. Names are Emmett, Edward, and Jasper, I believe. You'll meet them soon enough. Let me give you a refresher on the hotel itself. Five floors in total, as well as a basement, a garden on the roof, and a pool on the other side of the building. The bottom floor consists of a lobby, library, restrooms, and some storage areas. The middle three floors hold guest rooms, five on each floor. The top floor is yours!" explained Garrett. "Now go on in, I know that you're just dying to see it!"
We rushed into the building, completely abandoning our luggage for the time being. The inside was sparsely decorated, awaiting Alice's Touch. We raced each other up the steps, each wanting to be the first one to get the best bedroom, or the biggest closet, in Alice and Rose's case.
In typical Bella fashion, running up stairs is not the best idea. If fact, running anywhere isn't even a remotely good idea. So, in my haste to run up the third flight of steps, I inevitably tripped, making me be the last one up the steps. By the time I'd reached our floor, Rose and Alice had already claimed rooms. I was stuck with the view across the street. Luckily, I could see the Eiffel Tower, too.
Looking away from the window, I saw what my room actually looked like for the first time. It was a relatively good size, large enough to put a queen or kind sized bed in the middle, a bookshelf along the far wall near the window and a computer desk by the door. The big bay windows were accompanied by a window seat, making my room much cooler by far than my room in my dad's house in Forks.
"Ohmygoodness!!!!!" I heard Rose squeal. "I definitely have the best room! I have an enormous closet, I think I'll actually have enough room to put all my clothes in it! And, I can see the Seine River from my window!"
"No way! My room is so much better!" Alice shouted back. "I have a Jacuzzi tub and a walk-in closet that is to die for!" They continued their arguing, which faded into the background for me. Even though I had gotten last pick of the rooms, etc., I would have chosen this room. It fit me perfectly. It was just the right size, not excessively big nor miniscule. The adjoining closet was just a two-door closet, nothing special. I adored my window seat and bay windows. I could just picture myself curled up in my window seat, with the bay windows opened fully and a spring breeze blowing in. The spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower from my windows completed my daydream perfectly.
I was brought out of my reverie by Alice prancing into my room. "Not too bad, huh, Bella? Anyway, do you want to come with Rose and I to see the rest of the place?"
"Uh, yeah, sure. I'll be right there," I murmured, reluctant to move away from the beautiful view.
"Nu-uh. No way. If I leave you here, you'll never come down and see the other rooms. Doesn't the prospect of sexy French men entice you to leave your room? It's approaching evening, which means we have an excuse to go out to dinner. But first, I'd like to check out the restaurant. Okay with you?"
"Yeah, I'm with you. Lead the way." I followed her out of my room and down the stairs, taking my time now so as not to further injure myself.
Upon reaching the ground floor, Alice said, "Here's the door that connects the hotel and the restaurant, or we could just walk around outside and around. Let's take the shortcut and see if we can sneak up on Garrett! He told me that he was going down to talk with the other guys here." Alice pushed the door open to reveal Garrett in a large room, standing beside three men facing the opposite direction from us.
A/N: Thanks for reading! As I said before, these are pretty short chapters. Hopefully, once we get more into the story and out of the background info, they'll become longer.
