Have you ever lost the love of your life to your best friend? I have and let me warn you it sucks. And it hurts really, really bad. I sit here in my room remembering that day as if it was yesterday.

I'd gone to her house to hang out and give her, her late birthday present before I ran off to hang out with- it's hard to say his name now- Edward. But had I known that what happened was going to take place I never would've went. Instead I probably would've chosen to just ignore the facts and just pretend that everything was okay though it wasn't. Because truth be told I'd seen it coming.

"Where is she?" I'd asked Emmet as I'd walked into my best friend's house. I had a surprise for her- which wasn't easy Alice can be so nosey. I had tickets to go see PARAMORE! This was our favorite band and we had to go.

"In her room. But you don't want to go up there right now she's…" he paused as if searching for the right words.

"She's what, Emmett? What's wrong?" I searched his face for a few more seconds and saw the concern there. What was he concerned about? Was Alice in trouble? Was she hurt? "The suspense is killing me here, Em." I told him after he had been silent for a few minutes.

He bit his lip indecision taking over the concern in his eyes. But then I heard a loud moan from upstairs. I took off running thinking my friend was in trouble- boy was I wrong! I got to the top of the stairs and ran down the hall and burst open the door to her room. What I saw tore my heart to a million pieces. Edward was having sex with my best friend- well ex best friend now but you get the point any way. They looked up at me shock clearly on their faces. Alice hopped up quickly trying to cover herself.

"Bella I'm so-" I cut her off in pure rage

"Shut the fuck up. You two can have each other because I'm done with both of you." I yelled and ran back downstairs to continue my rant.

"How could you Emmett?" I asked between tears. "You're supposed to be my brother too and yet you let them do this. And you weren't even going to tell me."

"Bella I…" he paused again looking over my shoulder. I turned to see who he was looking at. It was Edward with Alice right behind him. The apologies started as soon as I met their gazes.

"Bella I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you."

"Just shut it! You're not sorry that I got hurt you're sorry you got caught which is fine with me because like I said upstairs I'm done with the both of you." I turned back to Emmett and glared. "Like I was saying I can't believe you I thought of all people you'd be the last one to stab me in the back. Guess I was wrong huh?" I looked back one last time at Alice. The look on her face was pitiful. I grabbed the two tickets out of my purse and through them at her. "Happy belated birthday."

With that I ran I hopped in my Benz and was about to pull off when my passenger side door opened. Emmett got in and shut the door behind him.

"Get out!" I screamed still through tears.

"No. Not until you hear me out."

"What?" I growled as I cut the engine. "What could you possibly have to say that'll explain the hurt I feel right now away, huh? Nothing. Nothing's gonna make it better." I sobbed. "I loved all of you, trusted you with my life, gave each of you a piece of my heart and you just crush it. Smash it like it's a piece of shit!"

"Bella that's not true. Not for me anyway. I'm not going to lie I did know. It's been going on for about five months now."

"FIVE MONTHS!" I shrieked. "Ah hell nah!" I hopped out of the car again and ran back inside. Alice was sitting on the couch crying. Edward was in the other corner hitting the wall. Alice looked up when she heard the door slam. I walked over to her and slapped her right across the face. She looked at me pure rage in her eyes. The nerve of her she had no reason to be angry I did. She got up and slapped me back.

I pulled her hair- full of weave at the time- and tackled her to the floor. I punched her in the face repeatedly the whole time calling her a sick bitch. Finally Emmett came in and broke it up.

"How could you? Five months, Alice! Really I mean five freaking months? You two deserve each other."

I stomped back out of the house. Emmett was right behind me. He hopped in the car with me and we left his house. He tried to let me drive until I started to lose control then he took over. He drove me home. He pulled into my driveway and cut the engine. He pulled me into one of his famous bear hugs.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I just didn't want you to get hurt. And I didn't think it was my place either so I kept it a secret. But I totally regret it. And if I could go back in time I would tell you. I'd protect you from this and I'm so sorry that I hurt you too." I listened to him apologize and for whatever reason I believed him. I forgave him. After all he was the only brother I had and the only friend I could trust at the moment. I needed him.

"I forgive you Emmett. Just don't do it again. Next time tell me."

"I will, B, I will."

With that promise Emmett left for the night and I went inside and cried my heart out.
