Chapter 11:

BPOV

We'd just set off for the trip to Seattle to go to the salon to get Mani's and Pedi's and new hairstyles. This was going to be a good day I had a feeling. Since it was going to be a long ride I had brought along a sketch book, pencils, colored pencils, charcoals, and a sharpener.

I hadn't drawn in a long time because it was something I did only when I had the true and honest to god desire to do it. Today was one of those days. I decided to draw each of the girls in their natural setting. Starting off with Rosalie, I started with a quick draw of her face and figure. It wasn't how I would really draw it; it was just a way to figure out the proportions. When I had that done, I started my actual drawing of her.

It was of her standing in front of her car, with her back to it. Her hair was in long waves around her. She was holding a monkey wrench in one hand and a socket wrench in the other. She was wearing cut up jeans and an old t-shirt, her shoes were old scuffed up converse. Her eyes were wide and playful looking; her lips were set in a playful, flirty smile. When I had her fully draw and the background drawn, I grabbed up all my colored pencils and set them in my lap. I picked the red first, I quickly started to shade in the car, which took five different shades of red and orange. When I had the car done it looked exactly like her actual car. Next was Rosalie herself; I need all my blues, greens, yellows, and pinks. I wanted her to seem more humanish. So I asked what her human eye color was.

"Rose what was your eye color when you were human?"

"Bright blue." She answered.

When I had the whole drawing done we had reached the salon. Once we were stopped I told her to turn around with her eyes closed. Which she listened to, I placed the sketch book in front of her, and told her to open her eyes. When she saw the drawing she gasped and looked like she wanted to cry.

"Do you like it?" I asked.

"Bella I love it. I look so…" she trailed off.

"Human?" I suggested.

"Yes, how did you do this? I didn't know you could draw or that you were this good." She whispered.

"I've always been able to draw I've never had to work very hard at it. It was natural to me. It seemed a bit second nature to me. After this I'll be doing one of everyone." I said while gathering all of my stuff up, to take into the salon with me.

"Oh Bella these are going to get framed when all of them are done. Will you do one of the whole family?" Esme asked.

"Of course! I'll do one of all of you. I'll even do ones of just the mates, like each mated pair gets a picture with them together." I exclaimed.

"Good would you be able to do one of yourself, and one of you and Jasper?" Alice asked.

"Yeah I probably will be able to, why?" I asked.

"So that we can have one of you together of course!" Alice exclaimed.

All of this was going on while we headed into the salon. When we finally got in there I was amazed this place was beautiful. It looked like it belonged in a fancy hotel. It looked like we were the only ones here besides the people that worked here.

"Hello, how can we help you all today?" one of the ladies asked.

"We would like to get new hairstyles, and Mani's and Pedi's." answered Alice.

"Alright well how about we start with the pedicures? Is that all right with all of you?" She asked.

"Definitely!" We all said.

(I'm not going to explain this part because I've never had a pedicure, an manicure, and I've only had my hair changed by my mother cause she was in school to become a hairstylist in her first marriage. So there you go.)

By the time all of this stuff was done. I had managed to draw both Esme and Alice. Esme was sitting in a garden, and Alice was in front of her own boutique. When I gave them to them they had the same reaction Rose did. It felt great because in a way I felt I had given them a piece of their humanity back. No matter how little I did It felt great.

We decided since we were already in Seattle we should do some light shopping, and other things. We went to the mall to shop, and when we were walking around looking for another shop we passed by an empty store for lease. When I saw it I decided to go and talk to the person in charge of the mall.

"Hey guys I'm going to be back in a little while." I said.

"Alright, but what are you going to do?" they asked.

"Just something I need to do."

And I walked off. I walked into the store across from it. I called Carlisle and asked him if he would be willing to help me with a present for Alice for Christmas. He said sure so I gave him my idea. He thought it was great and decided to get right on it. I gave him the number on the for lease sign. And he said he would call them and get it leased in Alice's name.

After that I called Rose and asked her what store they were in. She told me and I walked over. What they were doing surprised me, they were just standing there doing nothing Alice's wasn't even shopping.

I had never seen her not shop. It was weird, so weird. They were all just standing there looking at the drawings of them I did. It looked as if they were frozen in place, what I didn't know was that they were talking at vampire speed.

RPOV

While we stood in the store waiting for Bella, I took out the drawing she did. It was so me, so human though. I looked like I would have if I was human and born in this time period. I had never been so thankful for something in my life. I looked up to see Esme and Alice with there's out to.

"Guys you know what we need to do for Bella?" I asked at vampire speed.

"No what?"

"We need to get her something that is one of her passions. With Carlisle it's doctors thing, Jasper civil war, Emmett games, Alice yours are clothes and stuff to make them, Esme yours are gardening things, and mine are cars. But Bella has nothing, for her passions." I answered.

"Oh…you know we should." They said together.

"I suggest that we get her all sorts of drawing supplies and books, and stuff." I was so hoping they would like my idea.

"Yeah we should do that tomorrow when she's at school talking to the principal about graduating early." Esme suggested. I agreed.

We finally looked up to see Bella just staring at us. Okay so I guess we can start shopping now.

So here is my longest chapter for this story I really hope you guys like it. I hope I get a ton of reviews but if I don't that's okay to. my-immortal-love-is-Jasper.
