Chapter One

(Bella's POV)

I lay in my bed, face down, it was only 8:30 and my mom had sent me to bed. I was 16 for gods' sake, not 6. We'd gotten into another fight about what I was going to do after high school. She wanted me to continue with acting and singing, but I wanted to do anything but that.

I'd been shooting movies since I was 6 and singing since I was 13. I wasn't interested in then and I'm not interested in it now.

"Stupid Phil just had to get good at stupid Baseball, didn't he?" I grumbled into my pillow.

I heard a loud knock on my door, "If it's mom, Phil or anybody else, go away!" I yelled at the door.

I heard booming laughter. "Does that mean you're bodyguard can't come in?" Emmett asked.

I smiled softly, Emmett McCarty had been my body guard for one and a half years, and even though he was only a year older than me, he was incredibly good at his job.

I never liked any of my bodyguards, except for Emmett, but when I first met him, I hated him just like all the others. That lasted about five seconds though, because it's just too hard to hate Emmett. First of all when he walked through the door I was dead set on hating him, except I didn't know how old he was. I figured he'd be one of those old stiffs my mom keeps making watch over me, but since I could always sneak away from them and end up somewhere random, having the time of my life, which my mom is for some reason against, she decided to do something different.

I didn't expect him to be young. He walked through the door and introduced himself. "Hey, I'm Emmett, how are you?"

I remember I'd stared at him, no one ever asked how I was, so I told the truth, "Angry, surprised, and confused."

The strangest thing was, he smiled and said, "Huh, that's interesting, why are you surprised? Didn't expect me to be this young?" He'd flashed the biggest grin even when he asked me that, and all I could do is nod.

Then he proceeded to ask about me, he didn't go off on how he'd protect me no matter what, he actually was interested in talking to me. He didn't treat me like a boss or an obligation or a burden or was bummed he had to take care of me, or overly happy to take care of me, like my other body guards would have. He just seemed happy to talk and hang out with me.

When I finally got around to asking about him and his life he surprised me again by saying, "Oh," he had chuckled, "I'm going to go to school so I can train to be a manger… you know like for someone like you, but my parents want me to pay for it myself, so I figured I might as well be a bodyguard so I can be around people like you so that I can kind of know what their like… does that make any sense?" He asked with a laugh because he could see me trying to follow him.

"Ya," I had said, "It kind of does…."

He soon became the only bodyguard my mom could really trust with me, mostly because I didn't sneak off usually when I was with Emmett. Plus for some reason he was just really good at finding me.

"Ya you can come in," I finally grumbled after I'd pulled myself out my thoughts.

He smiled and flopped down on the end of my bed, "So, I know your mom banished you up here, so… I expect that tonight's going to be pretty boring… so… you want to watch a movie or something?"

I smiled and sighed, "I don't know, I kind of feel a little tired, I think I might just lay here and go to sleep early…." I said and kind of snuggled up in my blankets and whatnot. If this had been a few years ago, I might not have been able to trick Emmett into thinking that I was actually tired, but since mom put me though all these acting classes, well… let's just say it was a walk in the park from here.

He frowned at me, disappointed, apparently he really wanted to watch a movie with someone, or maybe he was just suspicious and was wondering if I was lying. "Okay, sure," he said, but I was sure he'd be listening very closely to see if I opened my window to sneak out tonight.

Of course, that means I'll just be extra quiet. After an hour, Emmett had only poked his head in once to ask if I wanted some water, subtly checking on me.

I smiled and accepted the glass and lay down after taking a sip. What Emmett didn't know is that I had my jeans and sneakers on underneath my blanket, but my blanket is so thick that he couldn't tell.

I texted my best girl friend Alice to ask her if she wanted to do anything when he left,

To: Alice

From: Bella

Hey, you want to go to a really low-key teen club I know tonight?

Alice was a really interesting person. She was an actress, a fashion designer and a model. Plus she's short; the chances of her being a model should have been 1 in a gazillion, but lucky for her she's incredibly persuasive. Although she doesn't sing, she does have a pretty good voice in her. The funny part is that she dropped her last name when she became a fashion designer. She said it was about how her design was just called Alice and that if she was known that well that she wouldn't need a last name. Although, I knew her name was Mary Alice Brandon, I knew she would kill me for calling her Alice Brandon or Mary, so it was just Alice.

She texted me back,

To: Bella

From: Alice

Hmm… I don't know, I had a long day… tell me where it is and I might meet you there if I have time.

I give her the directions and told her I'd be there at around 10.

At 10 Emmett was replaced by the stiff who replaces him. I never would know if he would even bother checking on me, because in the instant Emmett was telling his replacement what I'd been up to all night I had quickly ripped off my pajama shirt and had thrown on the t-shirt I had hid under my pillow on. I pulled my hoodie out from under my pillow too and threw it on, pulling the hood over my head. I was out the window and down the terrace before Emmett was finished telling him he'd given me some water and that I'd gone to be after.

Take that mom! Make me do stuff, and this is what you get. I thought with a grin as I ran through the secret way though the hedge and ran down the alley.

I grinned and ran down to a busy street, "Taxi!" I called and got in. I told the driver where I was going and he stepped on it. When he dropped me off I paid him a little bit more than I should have, calling thanks and that he could keep the change as I got out.

I practically skipped over to the bouncer with a grin. He smiled at me, recognizing me at once and let me in ahead of people. There wasn't a huge line, so I wasn't that guilty for being let in ahead of people. Like I had told Alice, it was low-key, not many people came here.

Ah, the perks of being well known… I thought as I headed into the club.

It wasn't really a teen club; it had a bunch of tables and booths, a small dance floor, a bar in the corner and a stage for the DJ, a band that could be playing here, people to sing karaoke, etc. Right now there was a band playing, but I wasn't really listening.

I headed over to the bar; they didn't serve alcohol and I didn't drink it so I ordered a coke. The bartender handed me an unopened can of coke and I went and stood by an empty booth. I was just about to go and sit there when I finally looked at the band.

My hood was still up over my head and I was thankful that no one had really noticed me yet, I didn't know if I had some psycho fans that would scream and point and bother me all evening.

I listened to the band, unable to really keep my eyes off them. There was the lead singer, with his guitar, he wasn't the best guitar player I'd ever seen but he was okay. He had these amazing green eyes and a really nice voice. His bronze hair was kind of ruffled and crazy.

The base guitarist had blonde hair and was really tall; he sang back up and had an okay voice.

It was the girl at the back that had me staring. She was really good at drums but I'd felt like I'd seen her before, but where? She had really long blonde hair and she was probably the prettiest person I'd ever seen.

Then it hit me, I'd seen her last month. I went to a fashion thing with Alice and she was one of the models.

I sat down in the booth and popped open the lid of the coke and took a swig. I listened to the song. It was pretty good; I suddenly couldn't stop staring at the lead singer guy.

My phone buzzing in my pocket made me jump out of my skin. "Hello?" I answered shakily.

"Bella! Where are you? This place is so awesome!" Alice's voice rang though my phone.

"Oh, ya, I'm in one of the booths. I love this band, and you'll never guess who the drummer is!" I said still in shock because I recognized her.

"Ya, I just noticed! I'm so talking to her afterwards!" She squealed on the other line.

I heard another voice that made me suddenly suspicious, "Alice hurry up and figure out where she is in this place!"

Emmett, oh, he was good at tracking me down.

I frowned, "Alice, is Emmett with you?"

"Ya, unfortunately," she said sounding like she was talking about anything but the fact that Emmett was there, "I can't believe it too, I mean I tried so hard to get them under control and all, you know, with the design but nothing. I mean seriously, it's actually really hard to get people on board with some stuff."

I giggled at Alice's attempt to look like she wasn't talking to me about Emmett.

"So, where are you? I can't see you…." Alice said.

"Okay, I'm in the booth on the top right corner but tell him it's the other corner," I sniggered. Knowing Emmett sooner or later he'll just do an entire sweep of the area, so I might as well have some fun with him while I'm at it.

"Okay, I'll see ya in a few Bells!" She laughed and I saw her and Emmett slowly going over to the other corner. I looked back at the band, they were singing a song I'd never heard before, they probably wrote it, and it was really good.

The green eyed boy kept looking at me, and I was wondering if he'd realized who I was, but something made me think he hadn't. He kept looking at me like he was trying to figure out who I was.

Suddenly two pairs of arms hit my shoulders and I jumped out of the booth and landed on the floor. I sat their frowning at them, while Emmett and Alice with laughing their butts off at me.

"Some friend you are, Alice, ratting me out like that," I muttered as Emmett pulled me up. She smiled at me and sat down in the booth, I sat down next to her and Emmett sat on my other side.

I realized just then that my hood had fallen down and I gasped as I looked back at the stage, the singer looked at me, something burning in his eyes, and looked away again. I pulled my hood back up.

"So, since your mom is freaking out I figure you might want some fun before you're grounded for the year." Emmett said trying to take a swig of my coke before I snatched it away and drank half of it before offering it to Alice, who gladly drank the rest.

"So, what's my other bodyguard doing right now?" I asked Emmett.

"Well, see I figured you'd sneak out, but you wouldn't while I'm here, because I actually mind to check up on you, so I told him to keep a close eye on you, so right now he's actually just guarding the door. So really… no one knows you're gone." He said with a smile.

"So, that 'mom is freaking out and going to ground me for the next year' is probably not going to happen?" I asked with hope.

"Nope, because I'm feeling generous tonight, but if you get caught in any photos, not my fault." He said.

See this is why Emmett is my favorite bodyguard. I thought and grinned.

"Oh my God, I can't wait to talk to Rosalie Hale after this. She is such a good model!" Alice squealed.

"Rosalie Hale?" Emmett asked with a frown.

"The drummer, I didn't know she was in a band!" She squealed again. "I can't wait to talk to her!"

I laughed, "We heard you the first time," I laughed.

Emmett was suddenly trying to get a good view of the drummer, "Oh, ya, I can see… how she would be a good model."

I laughed, "Of course you would feel that way."

"Oh, and I think that's her brother…" Alice muttered.

"Who?" I asked suddenly curious. Could it be that green eyed boy? I surly would have noticed him before….

"The base guy, the blonde one, he was at the fashion show with her. I noticed him 'cause he had this pained expression on his face and kept moaning and groaning at her about how he wanted to go home." Alice giggled, "Plus, you know, he's cute." She whispered that last part to me and I giggled in response. "I'm pretty sure it's Jasper. Rosalie introduced me," Alice muttered. Alice was always really good at remembering stuff like this.

"He started tripping over himself when he saw me. Apparently he loved our last movie," Alice giggled.

I laughed, "Is this during that time when you slipped off to the 'bathroom.'" I asked and she blushed, "which one though, the action-y one or the girly one?" I asked with a giggle.

"The Action-y one duh… I think… I'm not sure… I think so." Alice frowned, "I'm pretty sure."

Emmett laughed and I sniggered and the lead singer said, "Thanks everybody, you're a great crowd. See ya next week!" There was half enthusiastic clapping and they all started to get off the stage.

Alice squealed and jumped up and I followed her.

Rosalie saw us coming and I noticed my hood fell again, but I ignored it. She gasped at Alice and grinned and ran over. She smiled politely at us and said, "Hey, uh, what are you two doing here."

"Oh, we were just in the neighborhood and came to have a drink. We didn't know you'd be here playing! That's so cool!" Alice grinned at Rosalie. It was easy to see that she was confident around us; where as her brother had apparently been falling over himself at the sight of Alice.

"Hey, I'm Bella," I said politely.

Rose shook my hand and smiled again, "Rosalie… but I prefer Rose."

She hardly got her sentence out before I heard a girly scream and a buzz of voices, "Its Bella and Alice!"

I sighed, I can't go anywhere without causing a scene.
