I pulled up to the grocery store and parked in the parking space farthest away from the door. I wanted to see what lengths he would go to show how strong he was. Would he make me carry the bags or would he carry all of them? He looked at me quizzically but I just smiled and rushed out of the car and began to walk to the automatic doors that welcomed me into the store. The smell of fresh deli meat and dust hit me like a tsunami. I looked to see Edward's reaction since they don't eat, but he looked indifferent and now took his turn to lead me somewhere.

He took me to the junk isle. He knew me so well ha-ha.

"Pick anything you want" he said with a smile

"No, because then ill just look like a fatty and that is the worse thing to be seen as by a hot vampire" I whispered the last part so only he could here.

He just shook his head and said that he would be right back and to pick whatever I wanted. I really didn't want to pick too much stuff but he was rich and I was hungry so I picked whatever could fit in my hands. I was pretty sure that I would finish them by the end of the weekend, and who knew; maybe I would come back to the color palace again.

I was grabbing my last box of ho ho's when he came up behind me and laughed. I turned quickly, startled by his husky laughter.

"Just couldn't help yourself now could you?" he asked with a smile

"If you didn't want me to eat the whole isle why would you take me here?" I asked defensively.

"I didn't mean it in a bad way Yvette. Its good that you know how to eat, at least that means that my presence doesn't distract you from important things like eating and drinking." He looked a little disappointed.

It took me a second to know what he meant by that, but then It came to me like a bee to honey. Bella always was so fragile and skinny, that's what was probably going on. She was obsessed with his presence. I would be too if I wasn't such a fat ass, but since I can't gain any weight because of my powers I chow down like a football player.

"Just because I eat a lot around you doesn't mean I'm not obsessed with your presence, but it does mean that I'm really hungry so let's go to the place we are staying and eat. Well ill be the only one eating, but you know what I mean." He smiled at the last statement and led me to the cart that was filled with cans of soup, noodles, sauces, bread, meats, and fruits. I spilled all the boxes from my grip into the cart and Edward wheeled it to the cashier. The last thing I expected was to find out that Bella got a job, but she did and at the grocery store that we were shopping. Edward hesitated for a second, but then flawlessly took another direction to take us to another cashier. I laughed

"What's so funny?" he asked

"That you are trying to dodge Bella. What are you? A vampire or a kitten? I mean I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable but that was pretty funny how you didn't think I would notice her." He looked shocked for a second, but then that shock turned into something like smugness. He led me back to Bella's line which was longer than any other so we waited for 10 minutes until we got our stuff checked out.

All of a sudden I started to feel ashamed that I was with Edward. Not because of him, but because it was so soon. From what Edward told me though, Bella has moved on too so I shouldn't care. I shook off those feeling and tried to hide myself behind a magazine.

She looked up into Edward's eyes, but all he said to her was "how are you Bella?" and all she replied was "ok". That's it. I mean for them to be so madly in love, but yet not say something to each other was very strange. Maybe these people were trying to play a prank on me, and right when I jump on Edward from being to sexy a camera man is going to pop out of the closet and tell me that I was punked.

After everything was checked out, I asked Edward on the way out of the door what was going on with him and Bella a little more in depth.

"what was that 'how are you Bella?" thing?" I questioned trying to imitate his silky voice.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean" I tried to be patient for him, "if she picked another guy over you why are you so easy going with it? You don't seem to be hostile at all, and you guys seem to still be ok with each other."

"We are Yvette. She picked another guy because she knew that I had my eye on another girl. I tried to tell her I didn't like you that way, but she knew I was trying to lie to myself, so she picked the more stable relationship. I don't blame her because I think in the long run I would have picked you. Who wouldn't?" I was surprised by this, but not in a bad way. On the contrary I was very pleased with his answer, and even helped him carry some of the bags to the car much to his disappointment.

When we put all of the groceries in the back hatch, he asked me something that I'm always going to remember.

"Can I drive the hummer?" he asked this question like he knew what I would say so I raised my eyebrows at him. He continued to explain himself, "garette said that you only let people you really trust to drive your car and I was wondering if you trust me enough to let me drive your car?"

It took me a couple of minutes before I could put together a coherent sentence. I really did trust him. We only have known each other for a short amount of time, but I'm sure that I love him, I'm sure that he loves me, and I'm sure that I would put my life in his hands. Then why not my car. I know it sounds stupid but it was difficult to say my next words.

"Go ahead." I replied and handed over my keys. He carefully grabbed them from my palm. I could tell he was trying to be so very careful while driving it back to the color palace. He always looked at me every few minutes though. It seemed like he was trying to make sure that I was still there. It was kind of funny though, because where else in the whole world would I want to be?

We unloaded all the stuff into our palace and found space for the stuff in the kitchen. For people who didn't eat, the kitchen was dustless. I wondered who cleaned for them when they weren't here?

Everything was put away and stored for later use, but when I turned to find Edward he wasn't where I thought he was. I called his name but still no answer. I walked into the blue room, and there was a note on the piano: can't find me

I took this as a challenge, and went on a scavenger hunt in the house to find my vampire surprise.
