Breakfast foods are a favorite, especially the bacon. I like pancakes of the blueberry flavor.

She didn't know how to respond. Bella was utterly stumped; on the one hand she would love to have her girlfriend stay at her house, maybe she could get the blonde to open up more. But on the other, was it such a good idea? She honestly didn't know if it could be pushing the limit for her and Rosalie, not to mention that Ms. Hale would down right refuse for Rosalie to be that far away from home for an extended period of time. Bella sat quietly keeping her eyes trained on Rosalie searching for any sign of hesitation but instead only saw determination in its place; so with a resigned sigh she nodded her head and pulled out her cell phone.
"Bella! Where are you, I thought you were bringing Rosalie home?"
"Um yeah, I was, but she- is Jasper there?" Bella responds nervously to Alice glancing at the blonde sitting across from her.
"Sure, one sec!" giving Rosalie a tiny smile she waits for the male twin to answer the phone.
"Bella?" Jasper's deep voice floats through the device.
"Yeah, uh well I was going to bring Rosalie, but then she said that she wanted here, and I told her that it might not be the best idea then she said we should try so I was-" the brunette stops her ramblings, looking to the open hand in front of her. Giving Rosalie a quizzical stare she takes a deep breath before addressing Jasper again. "Um Rosalie wants to…uh speak with you" without waiting for a reply she slowly hands over the phone to her silent girlfriend.
Bella watched in fascination at the quick conversation that unfolded in front of her; Jasper spoke too low for her to listen in but she could tell that the blonde boy was speaking by the emotion on Rosalie's face. Once it was over, Rosalie promptly handed the phone back to Bella, nodding her head and showing an encouraging smile.
"Yeah?" she speaks watching Rosalie grab the pen and paper.
"Alice wants to go shopping tomorrow morning in Seattle, be ready by 10"
"Oh um but Rose doesn't have any-"
"Emmett will bring them." Jasper responds anticipating the question.
"And your Mom?"
"I will get Esmé to talk with her"
"Okay, thank you"
"Oh and Bella, please be careful with her" Bella nods gazing affectionately at the blonde who is still writing.
"I will"
"Have fun!" Alice pipes up before the call is disconnected.
"Well that's settled I guess" she announces placing the phone down. "Jasper says Emmett will bring some extra clothes for you, though I'm not sure if he means now or in the morning."
"Bells!" both girls turn their heads to the door at the sound of Charlie's voice floating up the stairs.
"Yeah, I'm here Dad!" Bella shouts back looking quickly to the blonde. "We should probably let him know that you're here" Rosalie nods setting the notepad down.
Charlie, of course, didn't have too much to say to the girls when they arrived down the steps. Knowing the basics of Rosalie's situation, the older man provided a nod of understanding, said his goodnight wishes and grabbed a beer before settling down in front of the television.
"I have extra t-shirts and shorts that you can wear to bed" Bella informs Rosalie when they re-enter her room. "They're in that dresser over there." Pointing to the area in question she takes her own set of sleeping clothes, a black wife beater and SpongeBob pajama pants, and then begins walking to the door. "I'll um get dressed in the bathroom"
Once she was dressed, Bella stood in the bathroom taking deep calming breaths; you can do this, there's no reason to be nervous the brunette thinks tugging at the ends of her hair.
"Are you okay?" she enquires observing the timid expression upon Rosalie's face; also taking notice of how cute the blonde looks in her clothes. Receiving a confirmation nod and smile, Bella returns the gesture advancing forward inside of the room to take a seat beside the blonde on the bed.
Are you okay?
"Huh? Oh! No I'm fine, just a little nervous I guess" she admits. "Is there anything you would like to do?"
Talk
"Talk? Yeah okay talking is good, just let me put on some music first!" Immediately Bella begins to blush at how excited she sounds and she chooses to ignore the slight smirk that appears on Rosalie's face.
And so they "talked" not once did the flow of words stop, nor was there any serious subject matter; they didn't need that. Rosalie told Bella all the little things, the times of her happy childhood before the incident, about how she and Jasper used to never get along or that she was the tallest girl in her class. Then both girls adorned blushing cheeks as they talked about their attraction for each other. The blonde sharing her favorite characteristics that her girlfriend had; her hair for instance or her subtle but comedic sarcasm or the way Bella's singing voice was her favorite sound. Then Bella returned the favor, her expressive blue eyes, how strong Bella thinks she is, and how Rosalie was the most beautiful girl she has ever seen.
It continued for an hour, the CD Rosalie made eventually shutting off.
Sleep? Rosalie questioned after Bella's second yawn.
"Yeah we probably should" then with a dramatic tone "There's shopping to be done in the morning!" Rosalie looked close to laughing aloud.

It was about two o'clock when Bella wakes to the sound of whimpering and stirring. Dazed and confused she slowly opens her eyes, letting them adjust to the darkened room.
"Rose?" she whispers glancing beside her, by the movements she can tell that the blonde is still asleep and she doesn't want to wake her. Despite being an inch shorter Bella moves closer to the blonde and gently drapes her arm around Rosalie's mid-section bringing their bodies flush against one another, her front to Rosalie's back. "Shh it's okay" she repeatedly whispers rubbing soothing circles onto her stomach.
Rosalie's body stiffens for a moment at the touch then she relaxes into Bella's body, her movements and noises halting until she is once again sleeping peacefully.

"Have fun last night?" Emmett grins wiggling his eyebrow at the tired, freshly showered girl. Pushing against his chest Bella grumbles out a 'shut up' causing him to chortle loudly. "Aww what's the matter Bellsie, you're not a morning person?"
"Whatever, do you have the clothes?"
"Yup, here you go! Everyone else is outside; once Rose is finished you guys can just come out. You have to take your car." Nodding Bella waves him away already making her way back up the steps to her room.
"Ya think she'd spend some time with me?" Emmett questions pointing at the red-head across the street.
"You mean fuck you" Edward deadpans looking to his older brother.
"Well, yeah, that's what I said." The bronze haired boy shakes his head turning his attention back to Bella.
"You didn't want to go inside with the girls?" Bella shakes her head.
"No shopping isn't my thing" she responds and Edward nods in agreement.
The three of them sat in silence afterwards, awaiting the return of Alice, Angela, and Rosalie from the Seattle clothing store. After another ten minutes passed them by with no sign of the girls, Emmett sighs loudly gaining the attention of his companions.
"You guys want to walk around or something? Maybe we could find a video game store!" the large man grins widely at the other two, making Bella chuckle.
"Sure, why not"

"So why didn't Jasper come with us?"
"Because he's smart" Emmett retorts glancing back at Bella. "He left with Carlisle early this morning to avoid shopping"
"Where did they go?" Emmett shrugs before pointing to a store across the street.
"Let's go in there!" Bella and Edward stop walking and turn their attention to the Tattoo shop in Emmett's line of view.
"No" Edward responds.
"What? Why not?"
"Because I will not have to explain to Mom and Dad why I allowed you to get a tattoo."
"Allowed me to? Dude I'm older than you"
"But not smarter"
"Can we go in there?" Bella interrupts the two bickering boys eyeing the bookstore beside them.
"A bookstore Bells, you're starting to think like Eddie."
Despite the older boy's words the three of them entered the large bookstore, immediately dispersing in different directions. Emmett goes to the back, where Bella presumes the comics are, Edward ventures off to the literature section, and Bella glides over to the spot where the cookbooks are being held.
"Maybe I could cook this one for Charlie before I leave." The brunette mutters glancing over the recipes in front of her.
"Whatcha doing?" is whispered lowly in her ear making Bella gasp and drop the book in her hands.
"What the hell Emmett!" she half-yells turning to glare at the bear man.
Chuckling loudly he takes a step back avoiding the hand coming in his direction. "What? I just wanted to let you know that I think we should leave now"
"What, why do we need to-"
"Oh hey, there you are." Edward interrupts. "Have you ever read The Awakening?" he asks glancing towards Bella, lifting the object in examination.
"Yeah I read it back when I lived in Arizona; it's a pretty good book"
"Oh, I was reading the back and-"
"You know, I can only imagine how Rose is going to feel when they come out of that store and Bella's not waiting where she said she would be." Emmett sings already making his way to the exit of the store.

By some stroke of luck when the trio reach the spot they once resided; Alice, Angela, and Rosalie all exit out of the store, bags in each of their hands. That was close Bella muses looking to Rosalie.
"See Angela I told you that they would be right where we left them" Alice chirps out.
"Of course" Bella responds, rolling her eyes at the knowing smirk on the pixies face. Moving closer to Rosalie, a large smile automatically graces her features when her eyes land on her girlfriend.
"Hey" Bella greets her before snorting at the bags being out-stretched to her. "Is this the only reason why I came?" she teases taking the bags from the blondes' hand. Laughing when Rosalie nods her head and grins; Bella shakes her head watching the taller girl walk up to take Alice's now empty hand after placing a kiss on the brunettes cheek.
"Welcome to the club" Edward chuckles following behind the girls.
The group continued shopping in Seattle for the remainder of the day; stopping only to eat lunch at a quaint diner in the city. Alice, with a little help from Rosalie, managed to convince Bella to buy a few skirts for some of the warmer days of Forks; and though she didn't admit it out loud she did like the way the clothes fit her.
Bella was grateful for the fact that they brought three cars because with all the stuff they bought it wouldn't have fit in just the two. Spending the day with her girlfriend and close friends made the normally shy girl more relaxed; she felt fortunate for a calm and quiet day.
"You're going to visit your Mom for the break right?" Angela probes to Bella as they walk back to where the cars were parked.
"Yes I'm leaving on Sunday and I'll be back Friday"
"That's good, you must really miss her"
"Yeah living with my Mom was always interesting" Bella supplies, smiling at her aloof friend.
"Cool. You think Rosalie will be okay while you're gone?" Shrugging her shoulders she looks to where the blonde is watching a video on Emmett's phone walking ahead of them.
"I think so, I mean she was fine before I moved here" Angela shakes her head.
"No she was okay but she's different now, she's actually happier."
"I'm glad; on the other hand though I think it's good that I will be gone for a while, you know? Give them more family time."
"You're really perfect for her" Angela states.
"Thanks" Bella returns. "She's perfect for me too"
What's in your dreams?
