Alice was taking me on a date, I've never been this excited to go on a date with anyone. The thing is when you want someone badly, you start acting less like yourself and more like a poor version of You, because you're stressed. So I was trying as hard as I could to be myself, but without dressing like my old self. Alice she looks like a model, everything she wears was probably on the cover of Vogue at some point, or even will be on the cover of Vogue. I on the other hand am not what we can call a natural when it comes to style. But not tonight, tonight I want her to look at me like I look at her. I know it's going to be hard, because Alice was designed by some Greek carver, who found how to merge perfection and grace. But I'll do my best.
After a look at y wardrobe, I found it. We all have this piece of textile work, bought by our mother for special occasions. A short black dress. Don't think I'll wear that ever again, but tonight was my first date with Alice, my first proper date. With Alice.
Alice said she'll come by at 7. At 6 I was ready. At 6:01 I was impatient. At 6:04 I heard the doorbell.
"Hey" Said a stunning Alice
"Hey" I said back staring at her perfect body was wrapped in a blue dress which must have been drawn for it.
Alice eyes seemed to be sliding along my body. It took me a few seconds to be able to speak.
"You are early" I stated
"I know" she smiled "But I knew you were ready and if I can get more time with you, none can stop me"
"How did you know I was ready?"
"Vampire thing" she chuckled "You look stunning, I mean I knew what you were going to wear but seeing it...I mean you look gorgeous"
"Thank you, you're quite a stunner yourself"
"I know" she chuckled
"You must think I'm weird to be dressed and prepared one hour before our date"
"I chose my outfit yesterday, and it took me all the will in this world not to come earlier. Ask Edward" she said
It felt good to know she was eager to see me too.
"Anyway, after you miss Swan" she smiled
I walked towards her car, she opened the door for me.
"Where are we going?"
"That is for me to know and for you to find out"
"You seem to enjoy know more than everyone else" I smiled
"Okay, you found my first default, and a long list will follow, are you scared?" she let a nervous laugh.
"I can't wait" I smiled, I can't wait to love them all
"Okay, so tell me Bella"
"What do you want to know?"
"Everything of course" she said as if it was the natural thing to say.
I must of eyed her curiously."Come on" she met eyes and pouted
Man I am whipped
"I don't know where to start" I asked
"It's okay, I'll know everything about you at some point" she smiled " I can wait"
"And how do you know that? Vampire thing" I smiled
"No, that's an Alice thing." she said
She parked the car, on the side road.
"Alice, the side road isn't that romantic" I tried to joke
"So you're that kind of joker" she smiled.
She got close to me.
"Can I hold you so I can carry you?" she asked carefully.
Sometimes Alice, have a little frown, like she expected to say no to her touch.
"Of course" I smiled
She lifted me, my weight didn't seem to affect her at all. I buried my face in the crook of her neck, Her smell was bewitching, she had the kind of smell you want to taste.
In no time we were in the clairiere where we spent the afternoon yesterday. Alice walked and grabbed a basket. She pulled out a blanket, and some food and juice.
"You did all this" I asked
"Actually, Esme cooked"
"Esme is your mother right?"
"Yes"
"I can't believe you did all this for me, you don't even eat"
"I'll watch you" she smiled
"You are going to watch me eat?" I asked confused
"Yes"
"Isn't that boring, I don't want you to be bored on our first date" I said honestly
"Bella, there is no way for me to be bored, as long as I get to spend time with you" she smiled
"You are a charmer aren't you?" I blushed at what she said
"It depends am I charming you?" she asked getting closer to me.
"Yes" I whispered You have no idea
She leaned in and kissed me, slowly softly, our tongues met with a tenderness I didn't know.
"Jasper said I should wait the end of the date to kiss you, but I couldn't, you look so beautiful and you are here with me. I couldn't wait any longer. Are you mad?"
"Mad? After that kiss I am a lot of things mad isn't one of them" I said out of breath
"I am glad"
As I grabbed, a sandwich, a question popped in my head.
"You said Jasper told you to wait?"
"Yes"
"How come?"
She seemed a bit uneasy for a moment. She was so cute, nervous Alice, that's a vision of her I am delighted to discover. God I want to see all the versions of Alice this world could offer me as long as she was happy.
"Well, the truth is, this is not just my first date with you, it's my first date."
"You mean you've never dated anyone?" I asked shocked
"Not like this, I've been with people but not like that"
The thought of her with whom ever these people are, made me sick. But she was with me now on her first date. And that was enough for me.
"Well, you are doing great" I smiled
I took another bite of my sandwich. Delicious.
"I take it you love Esme's cooking" she laughed
I blushed.
"I do"
"She's going to be delighted to hear this"
"She seems to be a wonderful person"
"She is, I think she's the mom every mother should be" Alice voice was filled with such pride and conviction, it was nice to know she was being taken care of. She seemed like the kind to love it;
"How old are you?" I asked
"Way to change the subject" she laughed "I have an age we don't tell"
"That old hum" I teased
"I knew it you are that kind of joker"
"I guess I am" I nodded "But how old are you seriously"
"I don't want to scare you off" she seemed nervous
"Alice, nothing you'll tell me will make me love you less" I said honestly
"I was born in 1901"
"You're a hundred years old" I said in disbelief
Her face, was one of pure terror, and I immediately regretted my tone.
"That means you're going to do all my History homework from now on" I joked
"So it doesn't bother you?" she asked still unsure.
"No. If anything it makes me curious. How was life in the 50's"
She laughed, and lost her tension, I was relieved.
"What's special about the 50's?"
"I don't know you tell me" I laughed
I promised myself I wouldn't eat a lot, but Esme's food was too much to resist. When I was done eating Alice was looking at me with a grin on her face.
"What? Do I have something on my face?" I asked
She shook her head and kept on grinning.
"If you keep looking at me like that, I'll have to physically remove that grin from your face" I tried
She kept on grinning at me.
I launched myself at her in an attempt to tickle her to surrender, but she grabbed me and was on top of me. Our bodies were close, last time we were that close she was saving my life.
"I knew you were going to do that" she whispered, her grin disappearing.
My heart was beating hard in a desperate attempt to break free from my chest. Listening to the urge of my wanting body to collect her lips with mine. I know Alice and I kissed, but she always instigated the kiss this I did. It was a voluntary Eden, a willing perdition.
When air became an issue, I pulled away.
"How is your first date is going?" I asked grinning
"Different from my expectations, but way better" she whispered almost to herself.
Alice was my angel, with her I was. It was weird like after a life of acting like myself I finally was myself.
"What are you thinking?" she asked as she laid next to me.
"That I like being with you" That I love you.
"I like being with you too" and I could hear her smile
"Alice can I ask you something?"
"Anything you want"
"Why didn't you like me when I arrive at Forks in the first place?"
"You think I didn't like you?"
"Yes, I mean I just..."
"Bella, I liked you. I did. I do now. It's just there was something about you I didn't get and it scared me. But now I understand thus I apologize again for behaving like... well not like me" she laughed like she meant to say something else but didn't.
"Well, I am happy that you are you" I said honestly
"That was cheesy Bells" she laughed
"Are you making fun of me?" I pretended to be hurt.
I must be pretty good at acting, because she faced me in a blink.
"No! Bella of course not I like that you're you too. I mean..." I cut her laughing
"You are mean!" nudging me playfully on the shoulder.
"So you like me being me too" I teased
"Yes, more than you can imagine" she smiled
"Who's cheesy now?"
"I am never cheesy, I am adorably romantic, there's a difference"
"If you say so" I teased
"As lovely as our date is, I guess I should get you home now" she smiled
"Already"
"Does this mean you liked our date?" she crinkled her nose.
"Yes, I did. I loved it" I answered
"Good, because I want you to remember it"
"You'll remind me the details anyway" I am not planning on letting you go ever!
"I will, now let's go" she hopped quickly.
The drive home was quiet, one of these nice silences. The car was filled with a soft piano music, and warm. It was the best date of my life. At no moment she made it awkward for me, at no moment I felt out of place. It was perfect. I've never used this word as much, then again since I met her everything is different, everything feels better, tastes better and smells better.
She parked next to the house, got out and opened my door. It felt weird to see how chivalrous she could be, It didn't seem quite her.
"Did Jasper told you to open doors?" I smiled
"Yes, he did. But now I understand why?"
"Care to share"
"Because it's another moment I can share with you" she smiled
"Chee... adorably romantic is that it?"
"You are a fast learner" she laughed as she walked me to the door.
"What did Jasper told you to do now?"
"Kiss you" she answered never taking her eyes off my lips
"He is a wise man" I whispered
Her lips were on mine within a second, soft and cold. I don't think I'll ever get used to them, it's always a first time.
"I don't want this date to be over" I said honestly.
"Neither do i" she answered
"It doesn't have to be" I dared
"What do you suggest?"
I opened the door.
"Charlie spends the night out, come in"
"Are you sure?" she said
"Yes, I am" I said confidently
"Look, I'll go park the car home and I'll come back. Leave your window open" she smiled
"Okay" I smiled
As she turned to leave.
"Wait" I said
"What?" she asked
I pulled her into a kiss, I didn't know I was going to, I just did. She seemed shocked first, and then she started kissing back.
"You are full of surprises" she whispered "I love surprises"
"Come back fast" I said
Her perfect body pulled away from me, and she started the car as fast as the machine could go. She was coming back quickly indeed.
I felt hot water collide against my body, I couldn't stop thinking about Alice. Perfect Alice, sweet Alice, funny Alice, and Adorably romantic Alice. I saw her face when she told me her age, I saw the fear of rejection. She was scared that I would reject her. Like I could ever, I don't think anything she'd say or do will make me love her less.
I wore an old T-shirt and panties. I got in my bed and waited for her to come, which she did after ten more minutes.
"Hey" she said
"Hey"
"I am sorry I made you wait I wanted to hunt before I came"
Alice explained to me, how they hunted, and I fell asleep against her cold body. Tonight I'll dream of Alice Cullen. But I doubt my dreams can be better than reality.
Here is the second chapter, just the date. I hope you like it.
Let me know if there's something I should improve :)
