Dark Blue ((Belle))

[Jessica Hamby]

Stepping from the porch, Jessica walked over to the Graveyard. She hadn't been here in a while and so she decided to be alone with her many thoughts and of course the dead bodies underground. She had earphones in and her blackberry and a B positive TruBlood with her. "Sleep well, darling. Wherever you are, I hope that you're happy tonight." The man sang.

Jessica smiled and opened up the TruBlood. "I certainly hope that you're happy..." She muttered and then looked around the Graveyard. "Ew..." She glanced at the dirt then luckily found a bench. Her eyebrows knitted together. "Was that always there?" She asked out loud but shrugged her shoulders and shot over to the bench.

She looked at the dark blue sky above her, it was the perfect shade. Smiling again, Jessica took out her earphones and disconnected them from the iPod. The song continued to play and Jessica took a drink from her blood and then set it down again. She sat there, glancing into the distance as the next song started to play.

[Belle Rowan]

Belle was up for about 15 minutes, looking for something to wear that day. She decided to wear something she hasn't worn yet. It was a present from Pam, something Belle didn't expect to get but when she did she was a happy person. She grabbed it and headed towards Jessica's house. Belle was almost there everyday getting ready, but she never sees Jessica.

Belle hopped into the shower, blow dryed her hair so it would look nice and not wet her new clothes. She let it fall around her shoulders in a hot and mean looking way. Then she put on her new outfit. She then stepped out of the bathroom and headed towards the door.

Once she got back to the Graveyard, she needed to find out where she should go. She couldn't stay in the graveyard in what she was wearing. Then she heard something, it was very small but she decided to find out what made the noise. It couldn't of been an animal, they try to stay away from vampires.

Belle notice Jessica sitting on the bench. She made it to her in less then a second. She sat down next to her. "Jess....I've been dieing to tell you something." Belle met the awesomest guy ever, and he happened to be friends with Jessica and Sookie's brother. Belle only met Sookie once, but she seemed nice enough. "I met this sweet guy at Fangtasia the other day."

[Jessica Hamby]

Jess had been dozing off completely and the sound of a voice brought her back to reality. "What? Oh hey, Belle!" She said, taking in Belle's outfit. "Cute outfit! It suits your shape very well." She complimented and smiled. She also took in the fact that Belle's hair was wet and that could only mean she'd showered in Bill's house. "What's the occasion?" She asked again, pausing the iPod subtly. "Tell all." She gushed, not yet realizing what exactly Belle was talking about.

She crossed her legs in a lady-like manner and put on an even bigger smile. "It's so good to see you, by the way. I'm sorry I haven't been around. Bill's just been absent for like three weeks and I decided to take advantage of that and wander around Bon Temps. I mean, it's only once you're maker-less for this long, you know?" She explained, taking a sip of her TruBlood then looking at it.

"Oh sh.it! I'm sorry! Do you want a TruBlood?" She offered, remembering how Belle liked AB Positive. She then looked around at Belle's outfit, her own outfit and where they were. "Actually, want to go inside? It might be easier for both of us." She realized and then looked over at Belle.

[Belle Rowan]

Belle smiled up at Jessica, it seemed she was dozing off. "There isn't any major occasion. It was a surprise present from Pam and I decided to make use of it." Belle giggled at the fact that Jessica wanted to know all. "Well I met Jason Stackhouse." Belle smiled at the thought of him. "And he was so sweet and funny. I was wondering why you never introduced us but I am not mad." Belle
could understand wanting to keep Jason all to herself.

"It's okay Jessica. I went crazy, too. I spent a lot of time in Merlotte's and Fangtasia. Oh that reminds me. I met this which Kimberly and we were so bombarded by a crazy shifter yelling at us. I almost killed the bi*ch." Belle was smiling at the thought of the fight she wished would of happened.

"I would love a TruBlood, thanks." Belle giggled and smiled. "We should go inside. This outfit and dirt do not mix very well. Then we can find somewhere to go because this outfit needs to be shown. And maybe we can help Pam's business bloom." Belle stood up and waited for Jessica to led the way, though they she knew it too.

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica stopped then, her whole body freezing but her smile somehow still plastered on her lips. Emotions flooded her senses. "Oh...really?" She managed to say and felt the smile fade from her lips. "Never..introduce...you?" She questioned and tried (and failed) to force herself to laugh. Jessica hadn't tried to keep Jason to herself, even though she'd enjoy that. "Umm, yeah." She said dazily, still trying to muster the new information she'd just heard.

"Crazy shifter?" She wondered and then had to giggle. "I met someone crazy too. He's an intimidating old Vampire who hates the human race or something. He was trying to make me an ally and the minute I mentioned Eric Northman, some crazy brunette bi.tch slammed into me. She tried to interrogate me but she was very rude so I didn't let her." Jessica did not yet put to and to together. She was too busy wanting to avoid all conversations regarding Jason Stackhouse, at least right now anyway.

Jessica stood up and felt just a little bit taller Putting on a smile, she looked back over to the house, which she abruptly started to care about. "Actually, I don't want to leave this alone. I mean, I have but who knows what could happen to a Vampire's house in a bum f**k town like this." She said and then shot over to the front door. "Come on!" She called in a cheerful tone.

[Belle Rowan]

Belle could tell something about Jason made Jessica go crazy. 'Did she like him,too.' Belle wasn't gonna bring him up at the moment. Belle was gonna let her calm down first and Belle was right Jessica finally calmed down.

Belle's head got all confused with the whole crazy vampire, brunette and rude. It sounded like Anna,'But it can't...She doesn't know where I am at...Does she..,' her thoughts were constantly churning. "Did the rude vampire look a lot like me, just older?" Belle already knew the answer, no matter how hard she tried to make it go away.

"Are you sure? Okay...I'll wear this out some other day." Belle followed Jessica, feeling her tension. Every guy she likes seems to be with a friend. 'Is there any guy who doesn't have dibs on.' "Jess..You should hook me up with somebody." Belle needed a human guy. "Human please, or partly human."

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica was trying to keep her cool for the moment, hoping with every aspect of her being that she was jumping to the wrong conclusion. She looked at Belle then contemplated the door in thought and stood there. "Now that I think of it..." She trailed off then finally realized what she said earlier and how she basically dissed Belle's sister. "Sh.it, she did look a lot like you!" Jessica blurted out then averted her eyes from Belle's and shot inside to the Kitchen.

She came back with a bottle of TruBlood in her hand and realized Belle was asking something of her. "Uh...what?" She questioned, handing the blood to Belle and leaning against the doorway. Tonight was certainly giving her a lot of things to think about. "Oh...umm...there's this one guy I know. His name is Kyle Summers and he's a witch. Ever heard of him?" Jessica felt no attraction to Kyle in a more-than-friends way and hoped he and Belle would be able to establish some sort of relationship.

[Belle Rowan]

Belle listened to Jessica as she walked into the kitchen. Then Belle heard something she didn't want to hear. Fear was in her eyes,'Anna is here...' "Are you sure?" Belle had tears falling from her eyes. "She couldn't of found me so quick. I didn't buy any homes, I didn't get a job, I didn't do anything that will lead to Anna knowing where I am," Belle said this out loud, but it was more to herself then anything.

"Thanks Jessica. I am sorry my sister hurt you." Belle couldn't stop her tears this time, she was usually really good at changing her emotions but she was to scared to try. "I never met this Kyle before...Um...I am sorry for flirting with Jason." It seemed every guy she liked someone else had dibs on. "It's he was so sweet, but if you have dibs then um..I'll look around." First Sam, she thought he was handsome, but he seemes to have an issue with vampires and now he's dating a witch. Jason, he didn't seem to mind but Jess seemed to be into him.

"I'm sorry about everything. First you get attacked by Anna then I flirt with Jason. I promise I won't do it again. I'm just so alone right now. And when a guy gives you attention its hard to say no or anything else. "Belle was crying for a bunch of reasons, she was scared for her life, she always seemed to like the guys who weren't interested or ones who are dibbed by your best friend. "I am glad I already talked to Eric, he should help with the Anna problem and I wont' have to leave."

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica noticed Belle was more talking to herself regarding her sister and decided to take no notice. But, her crying caught her completely off guard. "Oh no, I'm sorry!" She said, thinking what she said about Anna had offended her friend. She took Belle by the hand and led her into the living room. "Here" She said, handing her a box of tissues.

"It's okay, we heal." She said and put on a real smile. Leave it to me to crack jokes in a time like this... She smirked then heard what Belle said about Jason and how she flirted with him. That stung. But of course, she couldn't blame Belle for flirting. For one thing, just take a look at Jason Stackhouse (even though Jessica liked him for his mind/personality more than his body.) For another, Belle didn't know Jessica's feelings for him so she wasn't exactly blameable. "It's fine." She said simply and hoped to avoid further conversation on Jason. "I'll tell you about Kyle once we get you cleaned up." Jessica suggested, wracking her brain on other guys she knew, single guys preferably.

"Don't worry about it, you didn't know." She repeated simply and put her arm around Belle. "We don't want that now do we?" She giggled, continuing to wrack her brain for more guys she might know. Maybe she could ask Jason himself.

[Belle Rowan]

Belle was half-listening to Jessica but what she caught of the conversation confused her. "Oo..Jess. I am not crying because of what you said about...." Belle couldn't even say her name, it hurt to much. She loves her sister but the fact that Anna is here near her, it's just to much.

Belle took the tissue box and wiped her eyes and breathed in and out. She closed her eyes and thought of happy thoughts and tried to stop the tears. It didn't work they kept poring out. She let Jess comfort her and soon the tears stopped. "Thanks Jess. I am luck to have a friend like you. But I think I should leave for Dallas. I need to see if someone there can help." Belle was feeling better and she sipped the blood. "If it's okay..could you come with?"

The lack of blood might be the reason she was so vulnerable and she couldn't control herself like normal. "How 'bout you tell me all about Kyle," she said with a smile that would light up a dungeon and make the devil sing. Belle was back and ready for some fun.

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica quickly understood that she mis-understood Belle. Realizing that the mere mention of Anna was something that hit home, Jessica let it go. "Okay." She said in an understanding tone.

"Anytime, that's what friends are for." She said and smiled, relieved that the whole Jason thing had worked out. Jessica's smile grew even bigger when she heard the word 'Dallas.' Jessica took a sip of her own blood. "Really? That'd be great!" She said excitedly. "I'd love to come with you! Have you ever been there?" Jessica had never traveled out of Bon Temps, let alone Louisiana before and she was always up for a trip, especially with a best friend like Belle. It was also an opportunity to hook Belle up with someone there.

"Sure!" Jessica said and walked over to the couch. Plopping down on it, Jessica took another sip of her own blood and patted the seat next to her with her hand. "Hmmm, what do you want to know about him?" She asked, hoping Kyle would give Belle a chance. "Do you want a description of his body? personality?"

[Belle Rowan]

Belle was truly happy to have a friend like Jessica who would go with her where ever she wanted. "Thanks. I need to talk to the Sheriff there. That was the last place I stayed before here." It wasn't a home, not like Bon Temps was. There wasn't Jessica, Kimberly, Brandy or Jason there. But here she has tons of friends.

Belle was happy that they were on lighter waters,"How about personality?" She smiled up at her best friend. "And then his looks." Belle wasn't shallow but she had a certain taste.

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica blinked at the mention of the word "sheriff." So, there's more than one sheriff? More areas...or whatever they're called? Hmm... She could not help but wonder why Bill hadn't told her. Shrugging her shoulders, she looked back over to Belle. "Oh, really? Well I'll gladly go with you, when do we leave?" She could feel the adrenaline running through her veins already. Maybe this sheriff will let me sit on his lap. Are all sheriffs guys? "Hey Belle, do you know if all sheriffs are guys?" Jessica giggled at the question and took another drink of her blood.

Jessica was also happy they'd been able to solve their...conflict, for lack of better word, easily. "Hmmm, now how to describe Kyle Summers." Jessica bit her lip lightly in thought. "Well, he's pretty carefree. From what I've seen, he does get spooked easily but doesn't get angry if you do in fact sneak up on him. He's pretty nice, which is a key factor in a boyfriend as I bet you know, and pretty cool to talk to. I don't know how experienced in relationships he is but I'm sure you guys could talk about that whenever you meet." Ideas were already forming inside Jessica's head on how exactly Belle and Kyle would meet.

[Belle Rowan]

"Well the sooner the better." Belle wasn't happy to go back but this time she had a friend to go with. Also, she needed to find out if Stan told Anna where to find Belle. She was hoping he didn't and that all this was a mistake. No matter how much she knew it wasn't "Actually the Queen of Louisiana is the Sheriff of Area 1." Belle was wondering why Jessica didn't know any of this. "So no not all Sheriffs are guys."

Belle was a bit disappointed in the description of Kyle. "I don't know. I like guys who are more dangerous and exiting." she smiled politely at the thought. "And...I kinda need someone whose daring but can be laid back and sweet all in one." Jason was dangerous, exiting and daring, while it seemed Kyle was more the laid back sweet one. "Do you know anyone with all those qualities wrapped into one?" Belle smiled and took a sip of her blood.

[Jessica Hamby]

Jessica still could not comprehend she was going to Dallas with her best friend. Who knows the ruckus they could, and would, start there. A huge, bright smile pulled itself onto her lips with ease and she clapped her hands. She did not realize, of course, how serious this trip was for Belle. "Oh, really? Cool!" Well, that answered that. Now, more important matters at hand. "So, when are we leaving?" She asked again, raising the bottle of blood to her lips again. But, she missed her lips completely and some of the blood spilled down her front.

"Oh, really? Well, I'm sure we could find you some guy in either Dallas or Fangtasia." Jessica smiled again. "Nope, sorry. Unless you count Bill but...ew...." She shuddered at the thought, joking evidently. "Kyle and Jason are both my only guy friends. How sad is that?" She laughed again and took another sip of her blood, this time it went down her throat.
