Sorry it's been so long! I just finished my vacation, so I'm back to writing! Hope you enjoy this chapter.. and more is coming soon! :)
"Ow...ow...ow" I groaned every step, walking out of the mall.
"Oh, don't be so dramatic Nessie! We were only there for..." My aunt paused and looked at the locket clock around her neck. "4 hours..." She mumbled.
I chuckled. I wasn't actually in pain, because my muscles can't really get sore. But it was fun playing with Alice sometimes. "Oh yeah, not long at all..." I joked.
We were just walking to my Aunts car, with huge bags in our hands. We ended up going to nearly every store in the mall, buying hundreds of dollars worth of clothes, accessories, shoes, you name it. To be honest, there were some things that I realized I needed. Like a fancy pair of shoes for dates, or the hair bands. But I really didn't need 10 dresses - in my opinion.
We got to her vehicle, and I renched open the door, throwing all the bags into the back seat with a thump.
"Woah, be careful! What if you have the delicate jewelry in one of those bags?" My Aunt cried.
"Calm down auntie, they'll be fine," I said as I sat in the passenger seat. Alice made sure to wrap them several times with tissues - just to be safe.
My aunt narrowed her eyes at me, carefully placing her bags beside mine, and then sitting herself down in front of the wheel. She then started the engine and pulled out of the large parking lot.
As we were driving off towards our home in the forest, I said, "You know, I actually had a good time. Some things I needed... so thanks Auntie."
She turned to look at me and smile. "No problem sweetie! I had a fun time too!" She thrilled, and leaned over to give me a big hug, while managing to keep the car on the road.
I chuckled, then she went back to driving. I heard my cell phone beep in my purse, so I hauled it out to check who it was from.
It was a text from Jake: Where are you?
Just coming back from the Mall with Alice... What's up? I replied.
We were close to home, driving along the highway beside the forest. In two minutes we will turn left onto a gravel road and it'll take us past my Grandma and Grandpa's house, then to mine in 153 seconds.
My phone buzzed. I miss you. I'm coming to your house now. Jake texted.
I nearly laughed aloud. It's only been about 20 hours and he's already getting anxious. Of course he knows that I'm safe with Alice - if I was somewhere alone, he'd be calling me, and running around trying to find me. He just cares, I guess.
We were pulling into my driveway, when I saw Jake jogging up to my door.
"Good timing," I called, as I got out of the vehicle.
"I know right?" Jacob smirked. He walked up to the car, hugged me tightly, then started grabbing shopping bags out of the car.
"Wow, enough stuff?" He eyed the rest of the bags. He saw me roll my eyes at Alice, and then he understood. Jake knows that I'm not the biggest shopper.
Alice and I took the rest of the damage, and we stalked off towards the front door. My father opened it for us, and we dropped everything off in the entrance.
"Phew!" Alice sighed. "Renesmee is good for a couple months, Bella!" She called to my mother in the kitchen.
I raised my eyebrows. A couple months? I thought I was good for a couple years even before we went shopping. Jake rolled his eyes. I hugged my Auntie goodbye, then Jacob took my hand and led me towards the TV room.
As soon as we were away from my parents' sight, Jacob pushed me gently against the wall and kissed me for a while. I kissed back, forgetting everything - as usual. I was trying to remember what my middle name was when he pulled away, nearly having to pry my fingers off his shirt.
We breathed heavily for a while, staring at eachother pleasantly.
"Carlie," I sighed.
"...What?" Jake asked in confusion.
Uh oh, I didn`t realize I said that aloud. It took me a while to recall my middle name, but I just did.
"Um.. never mind," I blushed, keeping my head low and making my way to the couch.
He chuckled quietly, following behind me. We both sat down on the comfortable sofa. He wrapped his hot arms around me, and we cuddled there for a while.
"Er- Renesmee?" I heard my mothers voice a couple minutes later.
I sat up and turned around. She was in the doorway, with my dad standing behind her by the front door.
"Yeah?" I blushed.
"Your dad and I are just going for a dinner date in the forest," She smirked. "Can you make yourself supper? And you could make something for Jake, too."
"Sure," I said. I could heat up the leftover spaghetti I had a couple nights ago. "Have fun!"
"Thanks!" She called as she ran out of the door with my father.
I got up off the couch, and pulled Jake to his feet.
"Are you good with some pasta?" I asked him.
"Of course." He beamed.
We walked together to the kitchen, and I got the big dish out of the fridge. There were about 5 servings left, and that was OK because Jacob could probably eat the whole bowl. I placed a scoop on a plate for myself, and the rest on a dish for Jake. He chuckled as I struggled to get his large dish into our microwave. But I finally managed, and then leaned back on the counter to wait.
To my surprise, the phone rang.
"I'll get it..." I mumbled, as I strolled towards the telephone across the kitchen.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Hey, I'd like to speak to Edward, please?" Replied a very cool voice that I didn't recognize.
"Er- he isn't in right now..." I stumbled.
"Alright. Can he ring me back perhaps?" The man said. He seemed to have an English accent.
"Yeah, sure. Who is this?"
"It's Wes."
