Previously on Can we start over?

"lovely to see you again, and you Dr Cullen much better than the last time we met after all there's no imminent threat to my life this time"

"I didn't say you were Alice"

"I'm just happy that we're here"

"Edward has made some claims"

Bella POV

Watching Rosalie, I could literally see the tension rolling off her in waves, the silence was thick , and her ominous sentence didn't do much to create a more relaxing atmosphere. Knowing Edward he would've assumed I was his mate which honestly was ridiculous but it happened before so I wouldn't be surprised that it might of happened again.

Just because I managed to change the timeline or at least some of events of the timeline didn't mean there wasn't constant points that would be fixed , and watching back-to-the-future didn't really give me in depth insight on time travel. Even some of the books I had read online was purely theoretical it wasn't possible— the technology hadn't been created yet and I'm sure as hell sure that my body didn't time travel just my conscious. The reason I felt all groggy waking up months ago was because my mind of the future had melded with the mind from the past. There wasn't two of me physically that shared the same space so yeah magical time traveling aside there had to be fixed points that remained and Edward being a dick in the past as well as the present wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Heaving out a heavy sigh , I folded my arms across my chest and spoke factually. "He claimed me as his mate didn't he?"

Rosalie looked up surprised before she remembered that I'd already lived a reality where Edward had some the exact same thing. That reality eventually leading to my death, but that wasn't the point here.

"Yes" she breathed out her fists clenched at her sides. Moving across the room, I sat next to my high strung mate, taking her hand in mine trying to ease some of her tension.

"Rosalie he's done this before it's not news to me" I whispered "though I don't know why you look like you ready to kick him into space though"

Rosalie scoffed and rolled her eyes " it's against the law to claim another's mate as your own Isabella" I nodded along, yup I knew that since in my death I kind of witnessed that already.

"You are his singer" she continued " his attracted to your blood, he has convinced himself that he can love you and your blood at the same time. He's attempted to to keep me away from you .. my mate away from me how dare he?!"

I kept quiet not really interjecting since I was sure the question didn't need an answer though if I did answer it would've been along the lines of ' oh I don't know maybe because he's a self righteous dick?'

No that wouldn't have been helpful so instead I watched Rosalie vent her frustrations. " then he has the gall to watch you while you sleep! He knows he's dangerous to you yet he put you in danger all because he wanted to practice with your scent.. I nearly ripped his head off when Alice mentioned that." Now I know that he had been in my room once from what I could remember, that was the reason I made my dad cut down the tree and the construction workers put up some bars by the window to stop that kind of thing from happening.

"How many times?" I asked interrupting my fuming mate.

"What?"

"How many times has he been in my room to watch me sleep Rosalie?" I asked clenching my jaw.

Rosalie sighed angrily running her fingers through her golden locks, the liquid gold was nowhere to be seen, her eyes were obsidian black.

"I don't know two or three times" she huffed angrily, my jaw ticked, I could feel my magic begging to be let loose, clenching my fists tightly—I closed my eyes willing my magic to calm down. I wanted to rip his arms off and beat him with it.

"Bella"

"Bella"

"Isabella!" I heard loudly , there was was a small gasp. I looked at Rosalie who now stared at my fists in fascination yet I could see the hint of fear. I looked down and saw my hands lit up in flames, blue/orange flames stopping at the wrist.

"Sorry" I murmured, I knew my eyes had changed colors the vibrant blue that accompanied the outward appearance of my magic.

Rosalie quickly shook her head , she still stood away from the my hands, clear that she was scared. I sighed "I can't hurt you .. even if I tried" I confessed, the vampire's brow furrowed in confusion.

"No fire is dangerous to a vampire Isabella" Bella rolled her eyes at her tone, as if she was explaining it to a toddler.

"I know that Rosalie but I'm saying I can't hurt you, even the flames are designed not to hurt you, my mate, the literal other half of my soul." I said willing the flames away.

"I've already accepted our bond before you did, I felt the incessant tugging of my heart before you did , I've felt it for months before I moved here .. my magic is not dangerous to you Rosalie I promise you that, if it was you wouldn't be able to touch me when I'm worked up .. like when you stopped me from killing that boy" I paused watching the confused expression.

"But Emmet touched you too" she commented.

"He did, but he didn't touch my skin, if he did he would've gotten a nasty shock. You on the other hand can touch me whenever or wherever you like" I winked suggestively.

Surprisingly that got her to laugh, her eyes softened as she now stepped closer to me.

"Show me?" She whispered unsurely.

I smiled even though she was reluctant she somewhat believed me. " do you trust me?" I asked softly

"Yes" she said without hesitation. I nodded, slipping my hands into hers , my eyes flashed to its vibrant blue once more, the flames engulfed both our hands , instead of burning the vampire it warmed her.

Third POV

Rosalie watched in awe as her hands engulfed in flames, instead of the burn she expected she felt a warmth engulf her, her entire body lit up, her eyes trailed back to Bella's who was watching her with a small smile on her lips , her eyes were the bluest Rosalie had ever seen—it felt like she was staring into the blue skies or the deepest ocean. It was beautiful no beautiful wasn't the word to describe it. She lacked any word that could describe how gorgeous her mate was— there wasn't any word in the English language that would do her justice.

For the first time in her life she felt less than, how could it be possible that this goddess with literal magic was her mate? How was it possible that she'd be so lucky?

"See I told you I wouldn't be able to hurt you physically at least" she spoke softly. The flames roared quietly between them before it tapered off slowly.

Rosalie sat down on her lovers lap, enjoying the closeness " that was wow.." she appraised softly.

Bella chuckled softly , amused at the girls current speechlessness " oooh peanut I've made you speechless" she puffed her chest proudly "quite the feat I must say" she praised herself.

Rosalie rolled her eyes, gently pushing her mates shoulder "don't get used to it darling" she huffed annoyed.

"I wouldn't dare" she said softly her hands now wrapped around the girls waist holding her in place. She laid her head against the vampires chest , cushioned by her breasts. The silence stretched between the two, a comfortable one — no anger —no stalker brothers—no family just them, the two of them in their own world. She wished the moment would last forever.

"Sometimes I miss my heartbeat" she heard the vampire whisper wistfully.

Bella nodded against her chest "Why?"

Rosalie sighed softly her arms dangling off Bella's shoulders her one hand idly playing with the soft baby hair on the brunettes neck.

"It was a sign that I was alive, moving through time and space, now without one it feels I'm stuck in time, never aging —never moving forward"

Bella squeezed her mate tighter, she didn't lift her head from her chest instead she listened quietly to her mates ramblings.She didn't hear any hate or disgust just melancholy.

"The heart is an just an organ, it pumps blood, the older you get the slower it pumps but it's not a sign of moving forward just because you have one. Humans have heartbeats yet instead of moving forward they're stuck in the same old motions, you don't need a heartbeat to feel alive or prove that you're alive.. Rosalie all you need is to believe that you will live regardless of a heartbeat." She whispered softly she lifted her head and looked up to the vampire whose eyes filled with venom tears. It didn't fall and even though it didn't Bella wiped the blondes cheeks as if it did.

"But if it's a heart beat you crave? I'll have my heart beat enough for the both of us" She promised solemnly.

Rosalie gave her a watery smile and gave her a soft kiss on her lips.

"And what will happen when your heart beat disappears like mine?" She questioned softly their foreheads connected.

"Is that your subtle way of telling me you'll change me into a vampire?" She questioned curiously, she didn't really care either way she would make herself one to spare Rosalie the pain but she had no intention of leaving the vampire ever not again.

Rosalie didn't answer , she didn't know what to say , she didn't want her lover to become a vampire.. she didn't want her having to deal with blood lust or say goodbye to her family. It was selfish to her, even though they decided to be together she couldn't help but hate that Bella had to choose, and she hated herself for wanting Bella to choose her ... to always choose her.

She opened her mouth but a knock on the door interrupted her, she heard her sisters soft voice letting them know that Edward was nearly home.

"It's Alice" she said softly, relieved that her sister interrupted this time. She thought she hid it well but apparently not.

Bella narrowed her eyes at the vampire " our conversation is not over" she said firmly. Loosening her tight grip she had on the vampire.

Rosalie sighed softly giving Bella another chaste kiss "I never said it was" she said knowing Bella's stubbornness would never allow her to let it go.

A/N a bit of fluffiness before we see eddy again this story will be ending soon so yeah!

Hope y'all enjoy I personally thought Bella was way too cheesy
