Chapter 3: Shopping

(Alec's POV)

"Wake up," I said annoyed while shaking the sleeping human. She mumbled and moved away from me.

"Five more minutes." She muttered.

"Get up," I hissed, "I'm supposed to take you shopping remember?" She rolled over and opened her eyes; looking at the clock.

"It's eight in the morning," she complained throwing the sheets over her head, "come back later." I growled and ripped the sheets off her then froze in place. She had unbuttoned my shirt during the night, so her bra and underwear was full visible. She jumped and screamed.

"What the hell Alec!" she yelled picking up a pillow to cover herself. I couldn't move; I just stood there staring like an idiot. My room door burst open and Aro, Marcus, Jane, Felix, and Demetri came running in.

"What happened?" Aro asked and everyone looked at the girl who was bright red by now.

"Oh my got get out!" she yelled picking up another pillow and threw it at me.

"Alec!" Aro scolded probably thinking the worst.

"I-I was just trying to wake her up." I said quickly still looking at her.

"Quit staring and get out you pervert!" she said throwing another pillow at me, but this time I dodged it.

"Come on boy," Aro said as the other left, "give Violet some privacy." I left quickly and Aro shut the door to my room then walked away.

"What were you thinking Alec?" Jane asked coming up to me.

"I gave her my shirt to sleep in last night," I huffed, "I didn't know she'd unbutton it."

Jane rolled her eyes and stomped off, "you're an idiot."

There was dead silence as I drove with the human to the mall. After a while I cleared my throat and spoke.

"So," I said, "why the blue butterfly tattoo?" I asked remembering the tattoo I saw on her lower stomach.

"Why do you care?" She asked and I shrugged.

"I don't; I was just wondering."

"Well it's none of your business what my tattoos mean." She said.

"You have more than one?" I asked looked at her.

"I have six total." She said.

"Where are the other five?"

She sighed, "I have a butterfly on my stomach, a butterfly on my lower back, a quote on my inner right arm, a quote on my outer left arm, and a quote on my upper back." I looked over to see if I could see her tattoos, but I didn't see anything. She noticed my stares and continued speaking.

"The tattoos on my arms are covered with makeup." She said and I looked away.

The girl shopped as slowly as possible just to annoy me. She took her time trying on cloths and looking at stores. I was sitting at a table in the food court while she went to get lunch. I looked over and saw her talking to some guys standing behind her in line. She was laughing and smiling brightly clearly enjoying her conversation with them. I growled at myself when I felt a wave of jealousy.

"That table will catch on fire if you continue to stare at it." The girl said walking up to the table with her lunch.

"I'd rather be set on fire than be here." I muttered.

"Careful what you wish for," she said, "being set on fire hurts more than you can imagine." I looked up at her as she ate her salad.

"and how do you know?" I asked and she shrugged. Instead of answering me, she continued to eat her lunch. The last store we went to was a cosmetic and hair store. She bought a ton of makeup and different hair colors.

"Do you really need all that makeup?" I huffed.

"Yes," she replied, "something needs to cover up your wrinkles."

"I don't have wrinkles." I hissed.

"You will if you keep scowling like that." She replied and walked away to purchase her things.

While I put her bags in the trunk, she sat in the front seat texting.

"So where are you taking me for dinner?" she asked as I started the car.

"What makes you think I'm taking you to dinner?" I said driving out of the parking lot.

"Because it's dinner time and Aro said you had to feed me when I'm hungry." She replied and I muttered under my breath. She chose a bar to eat at knowing that it would annoy me. The smell of alcohol filled the air and the music blasted as humans danced on the dance floor.

After the girl ordered her food she got up and went to dance. Eventually she started dancing with different guys and some girls. I glared at her as she danced and flirted with the men she was with. When she came back to the table her food had just arrived.

"You clearly don't know how to have fun." She said looking at me.

"Your idea of fun and my idea of fun are completely different."

When she finished eating she got up to go dance again, but I stopped her by grabbing her arm. Without saying anything I pulled her out of the bar and to the car.

"What your problem?" she asked as I drove back to the castle.

"You." I replied coldly

"What did I do?"

"Exist." I hissed ending the conversation.

When we walked into the castle, Aro was waiting for us.

"Welcome back," he smiled, "did you have a good time?"

"I did," the girl replied, "but rain man over here ruined it." With that she smiled at Aro and walked back to my room. Aro didn't say anything, he just gave me a stern and disappointed look then left. When I reached my room, the human was sitting on my bed already in her pajamas.

"Do you ever stop texting." I hissed at her while she looked at her phone.

"Not when I'm with you." She replied not looking up from her phone.

"Just go to bed." I growled sitting on my couch with a book.

"Last time I checked you weren't my father."

"Well you're in my room," I replied, "so you do as I say."

"Bite me." She muttered and I smirked. I appeared next to her sitting on the edge of the bed right next to her.

"I would love to." I said moving closer to her.

"That wasn't an invitation." She replied moving away.

"It sounded like one to me."

"I will scream bloody murder if you come closer to me." She threatened and I smiled darkly.

"Please do," I replied, "I enjoy hearing my meals scream." She glared at me then smiled.

"So tell me," she said leaning into me and I narrowed my eyes at her, "have you ever kissed your meal before killing her?" I froze as she lightly pressed her lips to mine. Fireworks erupted through me as our lips touched. I placed a hand on her neck and she placed her hand on my chest. I closed my eyes pressing my lips closer to hers. Suddenly she pushed on my chest and I fell off the bed not having time to react. When I stood up she was already under the covers with her eyes closed. I got back on the bed and hovered over her leaning down to whisper in her ear.

"Two can play at that game Violet."
