footsteps on wooden floors echo throughout the entirety of the quiet house. the only other sound to be heared was that of steady breathing &. the pitter patter of a beating heart ; slowly making her way downstairs, bella purposefully walked towards the kitchen, the one place where she felt even remotely human. she didn’t like needing the substance of food, it made her stand out among a house full of vampires, but it was highly necessary to keep her body functioning, so she took it without much complaint.
edward had insisted he’d make her something, but she’d waved it off, telling him she was fully capable of getting her own food. he relented, telling her that everything she needed was to be found in the cupboards &. she’d thanked him dryly for his confidence in her capability of fending for herself. now she wondered if she’d made the right decision, because she couldn’t even find the most basic food items that weren’t meant to be stored away in a cold environment.
rummaging through the cupboards with a frown, her teeth sinking into her bottom lip in concentration as she moved to stand on the tip of her toes, sliver of skin peeking out from underneath her sweater, before her hand closed around a jar with a gooey substance. a sound coming close to “eureka” left rosy lips &. she stumbled away from the cupboard with a triumphant look on porcelain feautures. it was then that she noticed another presence, her cheeks flaring a deep red, before she uttered embarrassedly, ❛ oh, jessamine, i didn’t realize someone else was here. ❜
