Enjoy~ :D
Ciela shut the door inside the truck as Bella climbed inside on her driver seat. The Latino-French girl shifted her body to face her godsister with a serious face. "Bella… now that we are out here in this poor piece of metal deathtrap… I need to tell you." She watched Bella paused and glanced at her nervously.
"W-what is it?" Bella asked anxiously, wondering what Ciela want to tell her. Her heart beating fast. 'She didn't figure out their secret, right?' she prayed mentally.
"Damn… Cullens are hot!" Bella released her breath in relief as her tense shoulders relax. Ciela shook her head in disbelieved awed. "I mean, hold shit! I mean, when I first saw Edgar—"
"It's Edward." Bella gently cut in, reminded her godsister of her boyfriend's real name.
Ciela waved her hand impatience. "Right, right, Edrian—" Bella huffed softly. "—Looked very handsome, almost like a Greek god or something I've seen from the history book I remembered when I was an eighth grade or something. Which wasn't too bad but not my type. And now, I've seen the rest of the Cullen. Damn. Just… whoa. First, Emmett reminds me of a good-looking quarterback in football you've seen on the sports channel." She said.
Bella agreed with the Latino-French girl as she recalled when she first saw Emmett, she did think he was like a football player. Ciela continued. "Rosalie which she reminds of a swimsuit model. Beautiful yet deadly at the same time. Whoever named her Rosalie, is a fucking smart."
"What do you mean?" the brunette girl asked with curious and confused.
The petite girl leaned back comfortably against the seat on her side. "I mean, people don't really call her full name. Except, her parents, probably." Her free hand made a gesture. "But she usually goes by Rosa or Rosie, right?" Bella nodded her head. "So, that means she is a beautiful rose but can be very deadly since rose has thorns." Bella agreed, one hundred percent.
"Alice reminds me of a cute pixie, like a beautiful fairy and I bet she dances lovely like a masterpiece." Ciela said with genuine when she remembered Alice's appearance and even her bell-like chime giggle. She continued. "Esme is definitely my diosa and she is so sweet and lovely. And she reminds me of a goddess, to be honest. Like, the kind you don't see every day and suddenly, there she is and whoa, beautiful and sweet." A warm smile appeared on her face.
Bella smiles softly as she nodded her head, agreed once again while playing with her key. Ciela continued more. "I kind of wish I can get to know Mr. Cullen, but Esme just got herself a damn worthy man." She glanced at the house with an impressed smile. "That guy who is a doctor and looked like a supermodel?" she glanced back at her godsister. "Give her a gold medal for catching a sexy doctor."
The brunette girl shook her head then her eyes widen when she realizes that vampires can hear Ciela which she felt slightly guilty. Bella immediately pushed her key in the switched and turned on. The truck released a loud beasty roar which surprised Ciela once again. "And what about Jasper?" Bella asked with curious, amused, and slightly guilty.
"Jasper…" Ciela whispered with awed as she turned her back onto the seat and pulled the seatbelt on. "…he is a fine specimen. I never met someone who is a deliciously looking." Bella shifted her truck back away from the house and turned down the trail. "And that accent? I can hear his accent very faintly; I think it's Texan." Her head tilted back. "If he wears a cowboy hat, boots, and accent in all… I will drool." She blunted with slightly interested.
Bella shook her head once again and checked her mirror that the house disappeared from her view. "So, want to come over here again?" she asked, interested and curious.
Ciela grinned widely. "Oh, definitely. I don't think they can get rid of me easily since I like them too much to let them go." She winked at Bella who smiles softly.

Swan Resident
Next Day
Ciela yawned as she covered her mouth while holding her coffee mug as she is sitting on a couch. Her dark chocolate-brown eyes stare at the morning cartoons from the television. Her godfather already left this early morning for work and Bella just recently left a few minutes ago when her boyfriend picked her up. And now she is all alone in the house, not that she minded. Ciela lazily took a few sips of her coffee while watching the silly cartoon. 'Hmm…' she heard the soft rumble in the distance. 'Thunder? In summer? Well, now that I think about it… this town will always be rainy, whether summer air is still out there… maybe I should go shopping to buy new clothes that suit this weather.' She mused, playing with the idea to go shopping spree in stores.
Suddenly, a phone ring in the quiet house. Ciela frowned in confused, she stood up from the couch and walked to the kitchen. She stared at the phone that attached on the wall, her free hand grabbed the phone and placed it on her ear. "Swan Resident?" she answered with curious.
"Hello, this is Alice Cullen." Ciela recognized the bell-like voice.
"Oh, hey Alice. This is Ciela." She greeted the pixie girl.
"Cece! Great, just who I need to talk to." Ciela raised her eyebrows as she lifted her mug to her lips, took another sip of her blessing coffee. "I was thinking if you want to go shopping with me today? Since you are new to Forks, we can take this chance to explore. What do you think?"
Ciela blinked in surprise. Funny, she was just thinking about going shopping and Alice offer the invitation. 'What a coincidence.' She mused, amused. "That's funny. I was thinking about getting new clothes that are suitable for this weather."
Alice giggled in her chime-like voice. "That is funny. So, what do you say?" an excited lit in her voice.
The Latino-French girl would love to hang out with Alice, however, she thinks it'll be more fun with others joined in. Like, Esme, Rosalie, and Bella. 'It is like girls shopping time.' She mused. "Can Esme and Rosalie join us? And if Bella is in that house, can she join too?"
"Let me ask." Ciela waited as she took another sip from her coffee and noted that it's almost empty. She wondered if she gets it to refill or not. Alice came back on the phone. "Esme and Rose will join us. And Bella isn't here, she is with Edward at their special place."
Ciela was disappointed that Bella won't join. She wants her godsister with her and the other because she thought it would be more fun and plus, who knows, Bella might new some new clothes. 'Oh well, there's always next time. Maybe she and I can go shopping together next time?' then a smile appeared on her face. "Sounds great! When will we leave?"
"Well, we need to get ready first, obviously. But we will be at your place in an hour, good?"
The petite girl nodded her head. "Si. That'd work. I'll see you and others later then."
"Awesome! Bye~!" Alice sang happily and Ciela chuckled as she said her farewell.
Ciela hangs up the phone, then picked up and pressed the numbers. She placed it back on her ear while she finished drank her coffee.
"This is Chief Swan."
Ciela smiles wide. "Padrino!"
"Ciela, is there something wrong?" a worried voice heard from Charlie.
"Oh, no. Nothing is wrong. I just want to inform you that I will be hanging out with Alice, Esme, and Rosalie for clothes shopping." She informed her godfather while twirling her empty mug.
"I see… what about Bella?"
Ciela half-grimaced. "Well, I did want her to come with us, but Alice told me that Bella is with Edward so…" she can hear her godfather sighed mixture of irritated and resigned. "…but next time, I will drag her with me, that I can promise." Charlie chuckled softly which bring Ciela's pride. She likes to hear her godfather's laughing because she doesn't want him to be always irritated and upset.
"Alright. I'll hold you to that. But do you need money? There is some cash in the jar." Ciela shook her head.
"No, it's alright padrino. I have my allowances saved, so I'll use that instead."
"Okay. That's good. Then, have fun and be safe." Charlie grunted.
"Of course, te quiero padrino." she silently chuckled when she heard her godfather stuttered awkwardly. "Be safe."
"Ahem… love ya too." Then they hang up. Ciela walked to the sink, send her mug down and quickly rushed upstairs to her bedroom to get ready for the shopping today.
It took Ciela nearly fifty minutes to get everything ready after her shower, blow-dry her hair, get dressed, make-up on, jewelry on, and accessories. And now, she is standing in front of her mirror while examined herself with satisfaction.
She is wearing a black loose tank top with yellow-orange words print on it; 'NORMAL is BORING', black silk shorts with yellow-orange sunflowers patterns, black/white converse shoes, marigold hoop earrings, marigold necklace with metal leaves and a large sunflower rest against her chest, a few gold bangles wrapped around her left wrist, her fingernails are repainted in white color, and her hair is tied in low-ponytail. Ciela took close at her make-up, she went with a natural light color on her eyeshadows, black eyeliners, soft blush, and slightly dark lipstick. 'Good.' She grabbed her messenger purse and double-check her items and nod herself.
Ciela descends the stairs to the kitchen as she mentally thanks her godfather for made a house key copy yesterday and gave it to her after dinner. 'It's suck that Bella won't be with us today.' She mused a little disappointed but understanding since Bella wants to spend her time with Edward.
Then she snapped out of it when she heard the honk. Ciela walked to the living room, turned off the television with a remote and set it down on the coffee table. She checked the front yard through the window as she pulled the curtain away from her. She saw Alice opened the door from the back seat and beamed at Ciela. Alice waved at her when her golden eyes landed on the window.
Ciela waved back with a friendly smile. She leaned back and walked to the door, unlocked it, opened and walked out. She double-checked to make sure the door is locked with her key. Then the petite girl turned around and climbed down the stairs. Her eyes roam the vehicle with curiosity. When she arrived closer, Alice almost immediately hugged her.
"Hello to you too, Alice." Ciela chuckled softly as she hugged back, noticed that Alice's cold but brush it off. It is rather chilly today but not cold enough for Ciela.
Alice breaks the hug and climbed inside the backseats, Ciela joined in and shut the door. Her dark chocolate-brown eyes lit up when she saw Esme sitting on the passenger seat. "Hello, diosa." Esme smiles wide.
"Hi dear, how are you?"
Ciela smiles wide. "I'm good." Then her eyes shift to Rosalie who is sitting on the driver seat. "Rosalie." She greeted friendly. Rosalie just nods her head, nonchalantly then starts the car.
After a few heartbeats, Ciela blurts out as she doesn't like an awkward silence. "It's nice to be in this type of vehicle instead of the deathtrap that Bella loves."
Alice giggled while Rosalie's lip twitches and Esme just smiles with amused. "I know what you mean." Alice understood. "This is Emmett's car." She added.
"Oh?" Ciela glanced around inside of the car. "Not surprisingly, since it fits him. This is a Jeep, right?" Alice nodded her head.
"Jeep Rubicon." Rosalie answered calmly while she turned the corner of the street.
Ciela hummed. "Are you interested in cars, Rosalie?" she asked with curious and genuinely want to know about the cold blonde-haired female.
Rosalie nodded her head. "Yes." Ciela assumed that Rosalie won't be easy to open up but leave it at that.
Esme turned half-way as she smiles maternally at Ciela. "So, I heard from Alice that you needed new clothes?"
"Si. I have tons of summer clothes and only very few winter clothes. So, I need to buy some clothes that are suitable for this type of weather." Ciela explained as she leaned back comfortably while her purse rested against her legs.
Alice is practically bouncing in her seat. "I can't wait to see how you pick your style. I mean… you look so cute!" she said with approval when she overlooks Ciela's appearance.
"Thank you." Ciela grinned widely, proudly. "It took some skills a long time ago when I start to love fashions. It did take a while to figure out what type of style that fits me the best." She admitted. Then she carefully examined Alice's outfit. "You look very cute, too."
The pixie smiles widely. She wears a teal-blue dress with a dark grey scarf around her neck; loose, black leggings to her mid-calves, teal flats, and silver charm bracelet wrapped around her right wrist. "Thank you!"
Ciela glanced over to the window and saw unfamiliar streets. "Where are we going?"
"We are going to Port Angeles." Esme answered while her twinkle golden eyes watched the view through the window, content.
The Latino-French girl hummed with interest. "What's in Port Angeles?"
"Tons of things!" Alice squealed excitedly and start babbled about the movie theater, restaurants, museums, bookstore, stores, parks, and so on.

Washington, Port Angeles
When Rosalie parked the Jeep in the parking lots. Everyone climbed out of the vehicle and Ciela obverted her surroundings in new perspectives as this is her first-time visit this place. When Alice loops her arm into Ciela's arm, squeeze excitedly yet soft snug. "Ready?" Ciela grinned widely as she nodded her head.
Once they walked into the clothing store. Alice and Ciela immediately went to the top sections while Rosalie check over the lingerie section and Esme went to the accessories section with curious interest. Ciela went to the long sleeves shirts, she carefully searches each top that suits her or not. She continues for a while and had found a few she likes and even more short-sleeves and tank tops. Then she went to the pants section, examined and found a handful of jeans along with shorts and skirts.
"Cece!" Ciela paused her mid-search and turned her head to Alice who skipping toward her with bundles of clothes in her arms. "Ready to try on?" she asked, excitedly.
The Latino-French nodded her head. "Yeah." She followed Alice to the changing room. When she walked inside, shut the door behind her and hang bunch of hangers of clothes on the hooks. She took off her purse to set it down on the bench and took off her shoes.
After she changed clothes into new clothes, she stood front of the mirror with thoughtful face. She wears a black/white stipes shirt with long sleeves, and black ripped skinny jeans. Ciela turned her backside after carefully overlook. 'Not bad.' She approval of this outfit and changed to a different outfit.
This time, she wears royal-blue long-sleeves shirt that dropped to her mid-thighs, and black leggings. 'The black booties would go this or even my converse can fit this style.' She smiles happily and went to change another outfit once again.
It took her nearly twenty minutes to change her clothes and she decided to keep half of the clothes she likes and other she doesn't like. Once she put her clothes back on, unlocked the door, and left the dressing room. She placed the rejected clothes in the rail, and she noticed Alice is chatting with Rosalie by the shoes section.
Her dark chocolate-brown eyes scanned the store and spotted Esme at the accessories section, near the jewelries area. Ciela walked over to the woman who is examined the necklaces with politely interested. "Found what you like?" Ciela asked with curious as she stand next to Esme.
"There are nice things, but nothing really catches my attention." Esme said with a gentle smile. Her warm golden eyes glanced at the clothes that hangs Ciela's arms. "You got what you need?"
Ciela nodded her head. "Yeah. I have few things at home that would go with these clothes." She said, delighted. She truly loves to experiment her clothes with accessories and shoes that goes with it. Her eyes observed the jewelries until it landed on beautiful yet simple bracelet. She walked closer to it and leaned forward to take a closer look. It's a silver sterling chain with a white pearl in middle of the silver ring. It's very elegant and it made her think that it is fitting for Esme.
Without thinking, she picked it up and decided to purchase it. 'This bracelet truly does fit Esme. I don't know why… but… why not?' she mused with a soft smile then her eyes slightly sadden. 'Even this bracelet would go well with mamá…' she mentally shook that thought away from her mind.
Ciela walked to the cashier area and purchased her clothes and a bracelet. After that, she walked to others who are waiting with bags in hands. "Now that we got what we need…" Ciela trailed off with a mischievous smile appeared on her face. Alice was bouncing on her feet with excited grinned on her face while Rosalie and Esme were curious and confused. "…let's get a little crazy and sightseeing!"
"Yes, let's!" Alice squealed happily while Rosalie and Esme exchanged amuse glances then nodded their heads.
Before they knew they've been walking around and sightseeing in stores, ate lunch and more sightseeing for a while. When Ciela halted when she saw an arcade and send her playful grinned at the girls. "Fancy some game?" she turned around and power walk to the arcade without waiting for the answer.
Alice grimaced while Rosalie rolled her eyes and Esme shook her head fondly. They followed the Latino-French girl inside and saw a handful of children and some teenagers playing games. "Hey, Alice!" Ciela waved the Cullens girls at the Dance Revolution. "I challenge you to dance." She waves her hands at the two large machines with platform.
The pixie vampire glanced at Esme and Rosalie then shrugged her shoulders. "Why not." She jumped onto the left platform while Ciela jumped onto the right platform. Esme and Rosalie stayed behind to watched them dance. When they picked the song and soon, the screen said 'Start'. They dance, following the arrows.
Alice got all the beats, arrows and tricks with perfect ease as she dances beautifully like a ballerina. And while Ciela almost got all the beats, arrows, and tricks with smooth yet raw dance skill. They continued dancing for nearly five minutes until the song finished. Ciela panted as Alice leaned against the bar behind her, fake exhaustion as they noticed that they were tied.
"It's nice to have someone who is up to my level." Ciela grinned sharply at Alice who seems really impressed. Alice smirked at Ciela and they both exchanged a handshake. "Next time, hopefully, we can break the tie." Alice nodded her head as they dropped their hands.
Esme smiles fondly. "Are you thirsty?" she asked the girls who nodded their heads. "I'm going to buy drinks for us. I'll be right back." She walked away to the food area.
"I'm going to the ladies' room." Alice chirped as she dropped off the platform and left. Leaving Ciela and Rosalie alone.
The petite girl doesn't know what to do with Rosalie who looked very bored. She hummed as she searched her surroundings until her eyes landed on the claw machine. An idea popped in her head. "Rosalie, please come with me." Ciela hopped off the platform and quickly walked to the claw machine.
Rosalie followed the Latino-French calmly with her arms crossed. Her cold golden eyes overlook at the stuffed animals inside the claw machine. Ciela put some coins inside the claw machine and grabbed the handle. The petite spotted a perfect stuffed animal that she thinks Rosalie would like. Carefully and slowly she shifted the handle, watching the claw moved to a certain spot and her eyes narrowed. 'A little bit to the left… a little more… then further back… wait, too far, ahead of a little…. Ah! Perfect!' she pressed the button.
The claw dropped down on a target that her eyes have caught earlier. Then she pressed a different button and the claw grabbed the object and lifted. "Si!" she cheered and watched the claw went to the box area and dropped the stuffed animal in it.
Ciela bends down, grabbed the object from the lid and stood up. She turned around and handed to Rosalie who blinked in surprise at it. It's a baby cheetah with big glitter golden eyes and hugging a big rose. "This suit you, since you remind me of graceful like a cheetah and the rose, well, because of your name." Ciela explained, slightly shy.
Rosalie just stared at it then her cold eyes soften as she uncrossed her arms. Then out of blue, Rosalie walked to the claw machine as Ciela step aside with confused. She watched Rosalie put a coin inside, shifted the handle and buttons.
'That's impressive.' Ciela mused with awe when she noticed how fast and smooth Rosalie did on the claw machine and grabbed the object and received it. Rosalie bends down to pick the stuffed animal from the tray, stood up and turned around. She handed the stuffed animal to Ciela quietly.
Ciela's eyes widen in surprise but she gently grabbed it as Rosalie took not unkindly the cheetah. Ciela examined the stuffed animal with an amused smile. It's a baby lion with black eyes. "Thanks, Rose." Rosalie tipped her head.
After that, the girls got their waters and played a few games until Ciela pointed at the photo booth. "Come on!" she beckoned the others excitedly.
When they reached the photobooth, they attempted to figure out how to fit all together until finally, they made it work. Esme sits the end, Ciela in the middle, and Rosalie at the end. Alice kind of drapes over their legs. When the cash is in and they discussed which of the themes is the best. In the end, they decided the themes would be glamorous with glitters of violet and white diamonds. Once the countdown starts, and they start making faces in the first picture.
Esme blew her cheeks with her eyes staring at her nose; being silly. Ciela sticks her tongue out of the corner of her mouth while tilted her head as if she's crazy. Rosalie made a bitch-face as she doesn't want to be here in the first place. Alice holds onto her nose and blows her cheek while her eyes are closed as if she is under the water.
Then next, another countdown starts, and they made hearts for the second picture.
Ciela crosses her arms with half heart hands, Esme uses her half heart to complete with Ciela's left hand while Rosalie uses her half heart to complete with the petite girl's right hand. Made two hearts complete while Alice held up one heart's hands.
Next, another countdown and they made girly faces for the third picture.
Esme made a blew kiss face. Ciela used her right hand under her jaw with her mouth open; happily, as if she is shouting. Rosalie wink in a sexy manner. Alice covered her mouth as her eyes widen; slightly dramatic.
Next, another countdown and they made peace signs for the fourth picture.
Esme held up her peace sign, Ciela held up both peace signs, Rosalie lazily held up one peace sign with boredom, and Alice held up a peace sign, happily.
Lastly, another countdown and they made smiling faces for the final picture.
Esme leaned close to Ciela, with a lovely maternally smile on her face as her golden eyes' shines. Ciela leaned her head close to Esme's head with a big happy smile. Alice practically sitting between Ciela and Rosalie who is beaming. And Rosalie uncrossed her arms but leaned a little close to Alice as her head tiled with a slightly small smile.
Once they are done, they climbed out of the photobooths and Alice grabbed four copies of five pictures. She tore each and handed to each of the girls. Esme glows in happiness when she carefully studied each of the photos in her hands.
Ciela smile from ear to ear as she pointed at the third picture. "I think this is my favorite." Alice glanced down and giggled.
"I think it's mine too." They both exchanged happily chatter while Esme and Rosalie looked at their pictures.
Rosalie shrugged her shoulders. "Not bad…" she slipped in her purse while Esme smiles knowingly at her daughter then glanced at the last picture.
Esme taps the last photo that she believes it's her favorite one. 'I can't wait to frame this.' She mused, excited and proud.
Soon, it's almost evening and they walked back to Emmett's Jeep. They put their shopping bags away in the truck, climbed inside and Rosalie start the Jeep and drive down the street. When the radio was already on, and one of the songs came which Ciela recognized it. She leaned forward with excitement. "Oh my god, please turn up the volume. This is one of the best songs."
Esme leaned forward to turned up the volume. Before inside the Jeep, knew… Ciela and Alice are dancing around in their seats while bobbing their heads. Esme giggled softly as she is enjoying the music and Rosalie drumming her fingers against the wheel with a soft face.
"'Cause everytime we touch I get this feeling, and everytime we kiss, I swear I can fly~!" Ciela and Alice sang together. "Can't you feel my heart beats fast? I want this to last, need you by my side. 'Cause everytime we touch I feel the static and everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky~" they continued dancing on the beats.
It was a truly fun time for them.

Washington, Forks
Swan Resident
When the Jeep arrived in front of Ciela's home. "Thank you for today. I really enjoyed it." She thanked the Cullens with a grateful smile.
Alice gives a side hug with Ciela. "Me too. All of us had fun." Ciela smiles softly, then unbuckled her seatbelt and climbed out of the Jeep. She walked around to the trunk, grabbed her bags and closed it. She walked to the passenger. Esme rolled down the window with a curious face.
Ciela handed Esme a small bag. "I saw this, and I thought you might like it." She half-shrugged with a hint of shyly.
The caramel-haired woman gently takes the small bag, opened it and took out an elegant bracelet. She gasped softly. "It's beautiful." Her undead heart warm at the lovely gift that Ciela brought just for her. Esme quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the door and hugs the petite girl. "Thank you, sweetie."
Ciela hugged back as she sinks in familiar yet unfamiliar motherly hugs. It's been so long since she experiences a mother hug. Then they released and Esme gently pushed Ciela's stray hair behind her ears. "Come visit us soon, okay dear?"
"Of course." Ciela nodded her head.
Alice suddenly popped her head out between the driver seat and passenger seat. "Why don't you come over and have a sleepover? Bella can join us!" she suggested.
Esme glowed at this wonderful idea while Ciela hummed with interest. "That sounds fun… if that's okay with your parents?" Ciela glanced at the caramel-haired woman.
"That is perfectly fine with me. And I know Carlisle will be fine as well." Esme said with her permission.
Ciela nodded her head. "Brillante!" she glanced at Alice. "You have my number so inform when and what time?" Alice nods her head with a sharp grin. Then her dark chocolate-brown eyes shifted to Rosalie. "Bye Rose." The blonde-haired beauty tip her head.
Esme climbed back onto the passenger seat and shut the door. Ciela waved at them contentedly. "Thank you once again for today." She turned around, walked up to the porch and took out her key. She unlocked the door, walked inside and shut it behind her and locked it.
Ciela sighs softly. 'What a long day.' She mused, cheerfully as she walked to the living room. She noted that it's nearly seven o'clock and assumed Bella will be home soon to start dinner. She turned around, walked upstairs to her bedroom to put her new clothes on her bed. 'First, need to take the tags off, then wash them, dry them and put them away. During laundry, I should take a shower…' she planned for her night chores before she goes to bed.

Cullen Clan
When Rosalie parked her husband's car in the garage. The vampires' females used their speeds to put their clothes and accessories away. Emmett and Jasper are in the living room, playing video games while Carlisle is at his office.
"Hey babe! How's shopping with Cece and others?" Emmett greeted his wife cheerfully while playing Mario Kart.
Rosalie hummed. "Not bad." She simply replied which surprised Emmett, but he was jovial to hear that his wife enjoyed her day. The blonde-haired beauty tilted her head with a flirty smirked at her husband. "I brought new lingerie that you might be interested in."
Emmett wiggles his eyebrows with sharp hungry grinned on his face. "Oh really?"
Jasper shook his head when he felt the attraction, flirtatious, and lust between Emmett and Rosalie. "Come and find out." The blonde-haired beauty left to their bedroom. Emmett dropped his Wii remote on the coffee table.
"Sorry, Jazz. But my Rosie called me." He left in his vampire speed.
The empathic vampire just shook his head once again but turned off the game system. He could feel the love and warmth between Esme and Carlisle from upstairs. He frowned when he realized that when was the last time, he actually has anything intimate with his wife? 'It's been a few days since…' he mused, with concern. For the past few days, Alice has been shut down her emotions and never attempt to talk to him about it. Jasper couldn't help but worried about her.
"Jazz…" Jasper glanced up and saw Alice stare at him with a blank face. "…come with me." She tilted her head at the door, a silent gesture to leave outside alone.
Jasper followed his little wife into the woods in the distance so they have their private time. "Alice? Is everything okay?" he asked with concerned as the sunset light shines through the broken branches of the trees, landed on the grassy dirt ground.
Alice stood on top of the log as her lips are lined with thoughtful eyes. "…I think it's time to stop." She whispered softly.
"Stop? Stop what?" Jasper raised his eyebrows at her.
The pixie vampire sighed, unnecessary as it was out of human habit. "Our marriage."
"What? Why?" Jasper furrowed his eyebrows in hurt, puzzled, astonished and little anger.
Alice cringe when she saw hurt inside Jasper's butterscotch eyes. "It's not you, nor me. It's just…" her shoulders slumped. "…you won't be truly happy if you stay with me, Jasper." She hugged herself as she turned her head away from the empathic vampire.
The silence between them inside the forest until Jasper opened his mouth. "You have a vision." He stated while he stared at the pixie vampire. Alice nodded her head. "One vision and you want our marriage to stop?" Jasper whisper in disbelieved.
"No." Alice shook her head. "It's not just one vision. I actually keep getting it a few times. I have seen how happy and how free you are when you are with her." A sad smile appeared on her face. "I can't do that as she can. I don't know what she has that I don't have… but I will do it for you and her. You both are so happy, truly in love and free… I want that for you, Jasper."
Jasper exhaled heavily as he runs through his hair with his fingers. "Why telling me this? Why do you want that, Alice? You know your visions are subjective, right?" he doesn't understand what Alice is planning nor why she is doing this. "Decades, we've been together for decades and you think it's best because I can be happier with someone who isn't you? Why?"
Alice's golden eyes crystal with venom yet a bittersweet smile on her face. "Because denying your true happiness for my own selfish satisfaction is the worst." Jasper stared at her in stunned. "I loved you so much, Jazz. I don't regret our time together all these years. But… its time that we go our separate ways and have our own true happiness that will make us free. She can make you so much better than before, you will have a lot of freedom with her."
"Who is her? What makes you think I would want her?" Jasper furrowed his eyebrows in lost, confused, and annoyed.
The future seer vampire huffed softly. "A little firecracker who caught your intertest." She said, knowingly thanks to her visions.
The Texan vampire was startled by Alice's answer. He has not expected that he would find happiness with a human girl who has no scent. Although, he won't deny that he did showed some slight interested of a girl but didn't think too much about it. "But… what about you?" Jasper whispered softly staring at his soon to be ex-wife.
Alice closed her eyes. "Don't worry about me, Jazz. Your soulmate will lead me to the path where I can find my true happiness."
The Texan vampire walked to Alice slowly. "You know that I loved you, right?" he said, softly. Standing front of Alice who is standing top of the log.
"I know." Alice opened her eyes. "And no matter what, you are my best friend, Jasper." The empathic vampire wrapped his arms around her, and she hugged back tightly, knowingly this intimate embrace will be the last for them both as husband and wife.
After few minutes of embrace, Jasper opened his mouth. "Thank you for taking care of me, Alice." They break the hugs and he pecked Alice's temple. "…good-bye." He slipped an object in Alice's hand, closed it into a fist and left in his vampire speed.
Alice stared at the empty spot where Jasper stood then her golden eyes glanced down at his fist. She opened her palm, knowingly that it was a wedding ring. Her eyes are venom teary once again. "Good-bye Jasper." She whispered all her loves and vows of years with a certain Texan vampire. She mourned silently of her loved and vowed with Jasper, however, she will gain a new sister, best friend, and most of all, true happiness in the future that will reward her.
