When Bella woke up from her nap she noticed quickly from the smell that she was in Kates arms curled up in a ball. She had her head tucked into the blondes neck and a blanket pulled up around her covering everything but her head. She looked up and blinked a few times letting her eyes focus up on her mate. "Morning…" She muttered in a small sleepy voice.

Her raspy voice made Kate almost swoon as she stared down to her human. "Good morning gorgeous." She pushed a lock of hair out of Bella's face and tucked it behind her ear. "Carmen is downstairs making breakfast for you. The Cullens went hunting." Bella nodded humming stretching trying to wake herself up.

She pushed her hands against the bed propping herself up. Her brown curls fell down to frame her face and she looked over at her mate with a crooked smile. "Stop changing me when I sleep babe…" Bella chuckled at the darkening eyes of her mate sitting beside her. She could see kates gears going crazy in her head. "Katrina." Bella bit her lip and leaned in closer to the blonde in front of her.

The two leaned in closer until they met and connected their lips. There was a jolt of electricity that ran through Bella's spine which caused her to shiver. Kate chuckled as their lips danced together, the vampire pulling the human to straddle her in her lap. When Kate pulled back Isabella remembered that she needed to breath oxygen so she gulped down a breath of air as they leant their foreheads against each other.

Kate smiled softly as the human pulled the vampire back in for another kiss. "God I love you…" Bella mumbled against the cold lips that were pressed against her own warm ones. Kates eyebrows furrowed and she pulled back to stare into the chocolate brown eyes shining in front of her. "What…?" Bella asked staring into the golden eyes which were lightening up in front of her face.

"You just… did you just say you loved me…?" Kate sputtered out.

Bella laughed lightly. "No babe." She noticed her mates face fall so she quickly finished her sentence. "I said I LOVE you. Present tense my love." Kate's face lit up and she quickly dove in to kiss Bella even harder. The two were pulled apart when they heard Carmen call Bella downstairs to eat. The groans from the two pulled a chuckle from most of the vampires throughout the house.

Bella pulled herself away from her mate and stood stretching, her hands raising up above her head. Her arms fell back down and smiled at the blonde who was still sat on the bed pouting. The brunette shook her head with a small chuckle as she pulled on the blondes hoodie and made her way down stairs towards the kitchen where her nose quickly led her to the counter where a plate full of bacon and pancakes sat with a large cup of coffee sitting beside it.

"You know the way to my heart Carm. Through my stomach." Carmen chuckled as she placed the last of the dishes she had washed in the cupboard. With a small shake of her head, her face gracing a small smile, the Hispanic walked past the human who was scoffing down the bacon on her plate. "Carmen. For a vampire you make amazing bacon. The perfect mix of crunchy and chewy." Bella muttered through the food that took up her mouth.

"Chew with your mouth closed mija." The vampire said as she made her way into the living room. Kate wandered into the kitchen and wrapped her arms around her mates neck.

"So… its Sunday. What should we do?" The blonde asked kissing Bella's cheek. "I was thinking maybe… a date night?" Kate bit her lip as she shifted so she could see Bella's face better as the human processed what she had said.

After swallowing her food, Bella's face lit up and she turned to her mate. "I would love to go on a date with you babe." Kates grin went from ear to ear as she leaned in to kiss the human. She pulled back after only a second with a disgusted look on her face. "What…?" Bella asked, her heart rate starting to speed up.

"I forgot how gross human food was." Kate muttered as she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. Bella laughed as she took a sip of her coffee. "Okay so ill take you home so you can get ready and ill pick you up at 7." Kate said as she stood upright and made her way to the bedroom. Bella followed with her cup of coffee in her hands.

"Wait so you're gonna leave me alone at my house? Cause that went so well last time." Bella rolled her eyes as she sat on the bed. Kate rolled her eyes as she pulled her shirt off to change.

"Yes but this time, we know Victoria is gone and I wouldn't be shocked if one or more of the Cullen girls show up. I still can't forgive myself for letting you go home with Victoria still out on the loose…" Kate pulled a clean shirt on and sat beside the brunette on her bed. She moved the cup out of Bella's hands and took both of them in hers. "I was stupid. If you don't want to go home alone im sure Carmen or T would go with you."

Bella shook her head with a small smile. "No, it's okay. I'll text Alice and see if she'll come over to help me get ready." Bella laughed pulling the blondes hands up and kissing her knuckles. Kate smiled and stood stripping her pants. She smirked over at her mate who was clearly watching her ass move as she moved to her closet to put new ones on. Bella was shaken out of her daze of staring at Kate's ass when her message sound for Alice went off.

Pixies need belief to live.

Kate laughed as she buttoned up her jeans looking at Bella. "I'm assuming by two reasons that that is Alice?" She asked raising her eyebrow up.

"And what would those 2 reasons be?"

"One, the ringtone." Bella just laughed at that. "And the face that you made a decision involving her and she is kind of precognitive." Bella nodded pulling her phone out.

"Very valid reasons." The brunette stated as she opened her phone and quickly shot back a text to the pixie vampire. "Alice says she'll pick me up so you don't have to drive ALL the way to my house and back." Kate laughed and sat cross legged across from her mate. Bella threw her phone back on the pillow and looked over. "I need to change. Where are my clothes?"

Kate motioned to the chair at the desk where Bella could see her clothes. As she walked closer and pulled the pants off the chair she turned and quirked her eyebrow at the blond. "And my underwear is…?" Kate just grinned and shrugged crossing her arms. Bella shook her head slightly and pulled her clothes on quickly. She sauntered back over to her mate and sat down, placing her legs over the blondes lap.

"So… what to do until the smallest Cullen gets here?" Kate mused rubbing the ankles. She looked up at the human with a small smirk on her face. "I'm sure I can think of something." Bella choked on the coffee she was sipping and her face turned red slightly.

"K… I need to be able to focus on getting ready and this isn't really helping." Kate laughed at the stuttering human in front of her.

"I love riling you up babe." Kate patted the legs on her lap as she heard a car pull up the driveway. "The pixie is here to take you back to neverland." She said shifting Bella's legs off her lap.

Bella laughed as she heard a car door slam. "Oops. You may have pissed the pixie off." She saw a small smirk slip on to Kates face as Alice burst through the door and tackled the blonde off the bed. The human shrugged and stood up off the bed grabbing her purse. "Alright Tinker Bell. Take me home."

Alice jumped up off the other vampire and skipped over to Bella. "Time for Bella Barbie!" Bella's eyes widened as she was dragged out of the room. Kate flashed a smile to her mate as she watched the fear soak into the brown eyes.

By the time Bella could process anything, she was in the back seat of Alice's yellow Porsche next to Rosalie. "Hey coach." Rosalie smirked looking at the human who was slowly shaking off the dazed feeling. The human laughed sitting upright and pulling her seatbelt on.

"I see it's a girls day?" Bella asked putting her bag by her feet on the floor as Esme turned around from the passanger seat and waved.

"We all want to help you get ready! It IS your first date with your soulmate." Bella bit her lip looking down fidgeting with her hands in her lap. "Bella," Esme continued. "You and Kate fit together perfectly. You are meant to be with her."

Golden eyes quickly meant brown ones as Bella looked up to meet the maternal vampire's eyes. "Really? I get nervous that I'm not going to be good enough and she'll move on and forget all about me when a better looking single vampire comes around." Bella felt Rosalie take her hand so she shifted her gaze to the blonde.

"Bella. You doubt yourself to much. I have never seen Kate look at anyone that way and we've known them forever." Bella smiled slightly and looked back down at her lap. The three campires and the human climbed out of the car when Alice had slowed to stop outside of Bella's house. Bella wandered to her front door and unlocked it without saying a word. Esme wrapped her arm around Bella's shoulders and steered her towards the couch in the living room.

"Isabella. You are more than enough for Kate. Do not start doubting yourself now. We are going to make you look even more perfect than you think." Esme took the humans chin cupped in her hand and made the human look up at her. "You are enough. You are more than enough. Don't you ever stop believing that. If this is about being a vampire I can promise you that the minute you want to be changed, if Kate isn't willing to do it, I will. I've told you once and I'll tell you again. I am not losing my daughter again."

Bella felt a thumb wipe a tear off her cheek she didn't even realize had fallen down. The human launched herself into the vampires arms hugging the mother figure tight. Bella then felt someone put their hand on her shoulder and turned to see Alice standing right beside her with a slight bounce.

"Time for Bella Barbie!" The vampire squealed pulling Bella up lightly. "Lets go see what we can work with in your closet." The human laughed shaking her head at her eccentric best friend.

"Ali, you are nuts." Bella said causing Alice to smile widely and hug the human.

"You haven't called me Ali since before we… well before the incident." The vampire muttered into the humans ear.

"Lets go play Bella Barbie." Bella said quickly straightning up. Alice grinned and flashed up the stairs leaving a shocked Bella and a laughing Rosalie and Esme in her wake. "She is crazy." Rosalie and Esme just nodded, humming in response to the brunettes comment.
