Drum roll pleeeaaase... -taps fingers on desk- Ladies and gents, here's chapter 8. Enjoy!
(Rosalie's PoV)
Ever since our cousins, the Denali's, left a week ago, I've had nothing to do but think. After finding out about a week ago that my mate, the person who I was waiting decades for, was to arrive today, it was like I had ants in my pants. I know I was the reason for my family's happy mood, not to say they were never happy, but today they were so happy it looked like they were high. That is if a vampire could get high.
I am so excited, that Jasper had to leave because he kept projecting my good feelings out to everyone in the house. I would have felt bad, but I doubt anything could keep me down from this high. About to ask Alice for an update, I was interrupted.
"She just arrived and it looks like they decided to go into Port Angeles for some supplies" Alice said from upstairs.
Sometimes my future seeing sister can be annoying, but in this case I was grateful for her gift. I know if I was constantly asked the same questioned for the past hour, I would have snapped.
"What store are they goi-"
"Port Angeles Mall" no sooner had she said those words was I running into the garage and starting my newly fixed BMW.
"Tell Carlisle and Esme I'll be back in time for school" I said halfway down the driveway, knowing perfectly well Alice can hear me, even from this distance. The short distance to the mall had me thinking whether or not she would feel the mate pull, or would I have to tread carefully.
Parking my car on the south entrance of the mall, I took a moment to think. Taking an unnecessary breath, I slipped on my heels back on my feet since I took them off while driving, and started walking towards the entrance. Ten minutes later, I found her in footlocker, looking at book bags.
There was a blonde hair vampire sitting down watching Isabella pick up a bag, shake her head no after asked her opinion, then put it back on the rack. Even though the vampire looked relaxed she was anything but. A human eye couldn't see her eyes roam the store that fast. She was looking for any possible danger. Being reminded of the fact that my mate moved here in the first place to escape danger and the fact that I wasn't privy to that information, almost had me growl in frustration, but hearing her slightly accented voice for the first time had me moan instead.
Closing my eyes to enjoy what her voice did to me, I only snapped them open when I heard a gasp come from her direction. So, I see she does feel the mating pull, I think to myself after I hear her heart rate pick up and see her lick her lips while giving me the head to toe treatment. TWICE!
(Isabella's PoV)
Picking up a blue and black bag, I inspected it and realized it wasn't small enough, so I put it back and found one I liked. It was pink and blue.
"Do you like this one Tal?" I questioned the vampire who was watching me shop. This must be incredibly boring for her, I thought. Before I got a chance to ask her if she wanted to go to another store, I felt this sudden urge to turn around and when I did. WOW. Standing before me was a blonde goddess wearing skin tight jeans, a halter top and fuck me heels. Swallowing, I checked her out from head to toe again.
Wait, I checked out a girl? No, I just checked out a woman and something told me it was perfectly okay to do it to this specific one. At least if I were to go by the knowing look on her face. It wasn't until Jane touched me on my shoulder and whispered in my ear did I break the intense eye contact we were giving each other.
"Are you okay, Princess?"
"Hm? Oh, yes. I'm fine" I replied in a breathy voice. The blonde still having an effect on me.
xoxoxoxox
After Isabella broke eye contact with me, I decided it was only fair to stare at her from head to toe in return, and when I did, I liked what I saw. Her long wavy brunette hair was in a high pony tail, followed by a cute blouse then a pair of jean shorts. Her cute toes were painted dark pink. Walking cover to her I couldn't help but smile a little bit as her heart sped up with each step I took. Stepping close enough to her, I extended my hand and introduced myself.
"Hi, I'm Rosalie Hale. No need to tell me your name, my family and I know who you are" I made sure to stress the word family. Its not like you can go around and saying coven.
"We'll I was wondering if I could tag along?" I hated how my voice sounded desperate and hopeful at the same time.
Without taking my eyes off if hers, I listened to what Jane was telling me. I doubted Isabella knew what was happening because we were talking too fast and too low for human ears.
"I understand you are her mate, but you should take it slow with her. " Jane said.
Hhmm was all I said.
"So what do you say, Isabella?" She looked at me with a thoughtful expression on her face.
Jane then proceeded to tell her that if she was alright with the idea, her and the other three vampires could go home to prepare for tomorrow while her and I finished shopping.
"You will have to call your parents and ask for permission first though" she finished.
"Why can't all of us shop together?" Isabella asked.
I gave Jane a pleading look. "Sure princess" she replied. I felt all my hope deflate with those two words. "How about this.." I held my breath, waiting to see what Jane had to say.
"How about you guys shop and join us in the food court area when you're finished. I saw a store I want to look around in; Hot Topic" She glanced briefly in my direction, letting me know that she was giving me time to get know the princess more.
With each word Jane spoke, Isabella's eyes gotten so big, I don't know if its from excitement or the prospect of being alone with me that scared her. I hope its the former. Jane and the rest left while my mate and I walked to the woman's shoes section. Soon we were laughing and teasing each other like old friends.
"How about these?" She asked, indicating to a pair of high top Nike's.
I wanted to purchase a pair of shoes so I can be the same height as her. At the moment I towered over her in my five inch heels, and I wanted to be eye level with her pretty eyes. Of course I didn't tell her that, I just told her I wanted to get a pair of shoes while we were in here. So, after ten minutes of laughing, she chose a pair Jordan flip flops for me. Walking to the cash register side by side, our hands touched and we both gasped at the new feeling.
"Is that all for you, sweetheart?" The cash register boy said to me while leering. If it wasn't for my mate being human, I would have thought all of them were idiots. My mate. I don't think I will ever tire of hearing that. Cocking my head to the side, I leaned over the counter that was separating us, and stared at him from head to toe, then toe to head. I was greeted with a cocky smirk, scrunching up my nose in distaste, I said, "Nope" making sure to pop the p.
"Bitch" he muttered while ringing up our items. I was obviously meant to hear it or he would have said it quieter.
"Yes, but not yours" Was my only reply.
While exiting the store with our purchases, I turned to ask Isabella what store she wanted to go to next, but was stopped by the thoughtful expression on her face.
"Something you want to ask?" I asked her softly.
"Si. Do you get that a lot?" She said while pointing back at the store.
"More times than I want, yes" I replied. "So, where to next?" I asked after a minute of silence.
"Well, I'm almost finished shopping. I just want to purchase a few clothes. Mamma and Papa already provided me with a wardrobe, but I wanted a few things that I picked out personally"
Alright the, are you hungry" After she replied, I took her hand in mine and headed in the direction of the food court.
(Isabella's PoV)
When that boy called Rosalie 'sweetheart', I actually felt pain in my chest. Looking over to gauge her reaction, to say I was ecstatic that she didn't show any interest in return will have to be the biggest understatement of the year. Exiting the store, I was still thinking about how I reacted to Rosalie's admirer that I almost didn't hear her question.
"Si" I responded "Do you get that a lot?"
"More times than I want, yes" Was her bitter reply.
Does that mean she does not care for attention? I thought to myself. After awkward pause, she asked where I wanted to go next. Shrugging, I told her shopping for more clothes.
"Have you eaten?" Was her next question.
"No, I haven't. I actually forgot" I said chuckling.
"Hm, since you took over as my personal bodyguard, wasn't it your job to make sure the human got fed, Ms. Hale?" I added as an after thought. I only got her clasping our hands together as an answer.
Looking at the different foods they had displayed in the food court was amazing. I had so many different choices, so I decided on Chil-fil-A. Delicious. While choosing what to eat, paying for said food, and eating it, I had yet to remove my hand from Rosalie's. I highly doubt she minded though, if I were to go on the rubbing sensation she was doing with her thumb.
After eating, we shopped at JcPenney and Dillard's, purchasing a few blouses, skirts, leggings, and differents types of jeans. Biting the corner of my lip nervously, I asked her if she wanted to see a movie with me.
"Will this be your first time in a theater?" She questioned while we were waiting in line to purchase our tickets.
"If you don't count the one Pappa built for me in the castle, then, yes" was my instant reply.
I must have been more tired than I thought because ten minutes into the movie, I fell asleep on Rosalie's shoulder. I don't remember the ride home or how I got into my bed, but when I woke up the next morning, there was a note lying on my dresser.
If you want, give me a call when you wake up and I can give you a ride to school. I put my number in your phone last night. Hope you don't mind.
Rosalie x
I decided to call her after I've taken a shower and eaten.
(Rosalie's PoV)
During the movie when Isabella rested her head on my shoulder and fell asleep almost immediately after, I could have jumped up and screamed with joy. So, instead of waking her up and taking her home, I decided I liked the feeling of her so close to me and waited until the credits rolled around. Locating Isabellas phone in her purse, I scrolled down the contacts until I found Janes number. She picked up on the first ring.
"Princess?"
"No, it's Rosalie. I just wanted to tell you that Isabella and I were watching a movie until she fell asleep. I would like to take her home if that's alright?" A couple seconds went by with a reply, I bit my lip waiting.
"Sure, that's fine" She said. " We'll leave now, too. I assume you know where we are staying?"
"Yes, so I'll meet you there" No sooner than I uttered those words did I hear the dial tone, letting me know that she hung up.
Looking down at the woman leaning on my shoulder, I still couldn't believe that this was my mate. Shaking myself from my thoughts, once I made sure there wasn't a soul left in the theatre room, I picked her up bridal style and ran to my car at vampire speed. Resting her down gently in the seat, I couldn't help brush hair out of forehead and leave a kiss there.
When I arrived to her house, nobody came out, but thanks to my super senses, I could tell they were inside. It meant a lot to me that they trusted me with their Princess. Walking towards the house, I located her room in the east wing suit. Her beautiful scent was more prominent on this side. Lying her gently on the king size bed, I didn't want to come off as a creep so I left her the clothes she was wearing; even if it didn't look comfortable. Locating paper and pen, I hurriedly scribbled a notes and left it on the night stand.
"Good night, beautiful" I whispered into the night as I made my way back to my car.
Arriving home, I was bombarded with questions.
"So, how'd it go?"
"Did you tell her that you're her mate?"
"What's she like?"
"When will me meet her?"
Okay, I know that once I returned I was going to get buried with question, but not when I have yet to step foot in said house. Deciding to teach them a lesson, I parked my car, got out, and ran upstairs all while singing "It's a small world" so Eddie couldn't get the information out of my head. Taking an hour long shower, I got dressed leisurely and made my way down stairs at human speed.
"Rosalie" Esme chided with a small smile on her face.
Deciding they had enough teasing, I told them of everything, from her trying fast food for the first time, to me tucking her in bed.
"You had a woman in bed, and you didn't do anything?" Emmett joked.
"It's not funny, Emmett. And I suggest you stop with the jokes because they're starting to piss me off" I spat.
Not waiting for a reply, I ran I upstairs to my room thinking about whether Isabella will take me up on my offer or not. Gods, I hope she will call. Exactly at 8:00 a.m, I heard my phone ring. Picking it up, I started the conversation.
A/N : Not sure if you guys noticed or not, but I'm trying to update on Fridays. I'll try to continue this pattern as long as my school work allows it. :/ I have another story idea that started forming in my head. I can't decide if I should make it a Twilight fanfic or Once Upon a Time (Regina & Emma) fanfic. Decisions, decisions...
- Hope you guys have an awesome weekend.
Next time on My Pulse, Our Hearts :
Turning around so I can be introduced to her family, I leaned back into Rose, and encouraged her to wrap her arms around my front. Feeling someone trying to through my mental shield, I spoke at a regular voice, knowing that person could still hear me, even from inside the Volvo.
"I have several gifts, one of them being a shield, so whoever you are, please stop. I haven't mastered it yet, and it hurts because of it" Hearing Rosalie growl protectively made me smile.
Until next time,
