AN: So this is the new story I'm starting and I hope you all like it. I've been playing with the idea for a while so I'm finally starting with it. Woo-hoo! :)

I stood in the middle of the dance floor, wondering what the heck I was doing there. I can't believe I let Alice drag me to this stupid party. Walking around a crowded house watching hormonal teenagers grind on each other and get drunk wasn't my really my ideal way of celebrating my high school graduation, but Alice just had to come to meet up with Jasper, her new boyfriend who was hosting the party, and wouldn't let me stay home.

"Oh come on Bella!" she had whined to me, "You just graduated high school, you should celebrate. Besides, maybe you'll meet a guy there. You haven't had a date in ages." And so, I ended up in this crowded house, bored out of my mind. I'd been wandering around for an hour, doing absolutely nothing while Alice was off sucking face. I decided maybe I needed a drink. There had to be something here with alcohol that could get me through this party. I usually don't drink, but maybe I need it. On my way to the drink table, however, my insane clumsiness caused me to collide into some guy, spilling his beer all over my white t-shirt.

"Shit!" he exclaimed, "I am so sorry!"

"No its alright, it's my fau-" I cut myself off when I looked into his eyes and was startled by their intense beauty. He was gorgeous, but his eyes were something almost god-like. I stared into his sparkling green eyes for what felt like forever, stuck in a trance of some sort. The party around me disappeared and I felt like me and this guy must have been the only people in the room, no, in the whole world. Time seemed to stand still, and the earth could've stopped turning. I felt like I could see into his very soul, while I didn't even know his name. I would have been embarrassed, except for the fact that he seemed to be in the same sort of trance. Although, that could have just been from the fact that my wet white t-shirt allowed you to see my bra. That thought jolted me back to reality and I tore my eyes away from the stunning man in front of me. He cleared his throat.

"Um, I'm really sorry about your shirt" he said, shaking his head as if to get rid of a thought. "Let me get you something from upstairs. He started toward the stairs and I followed suit. He led me to a door at the end of a long hallway. He opened it to what must be a girl's bedroom. The walls were a hot pink and covered in posters of boy bands and musicians.

"I'm guessing this isn't your room" I guessed with a laugh. He smiled crookedly. There was something about that smile that made me feel like I could trust him with anything-which was crazy. I just met him.

"Nah. This isn't my house. This is my cousin Rosalie's room. I just came to the party because Rosie and Jazz made me. I didn't go to Forks." He said, the whole time not looking me in the eye.

"Oh. My friend Alice is dating Jasper." I said matter-of-factly.

"Cool. I'm Edward by the way." He reached out his hand to shake mine.

"Bella" I said as I put my hand in his. In that moment, an electric shock went through my whole body. I stared into his eyes, and it looked like he felt it to. I don't know why I did what I did next. Maybe it was the exciting party atmosphere, or the fact that I hadn't been this close to a guy who wasn't related to me in ages. But it was most likely the fact that it just felt right. I felt like I just needed to kiss him. So I did. I leaned in and pressed my lips to his, despite the fact of only meeting him 5 minutes ago. And he didn't lean away, far from it. He pushed me up against a wall and moved his lips feverishly against mine. And, cliched as it sounds, one thing led to another and we ended up tangled in the sheets of his cousin's bed. Even the fact that he was a man I barely knew couldn't ruin the fact that it was amazing. It was hard to imagine that life could get any better than it had been that night

I woke up the next morning in a daze. Last night's events came rushing back to me. I looked at the naked man next to me and let out a groan. What had I done? Sure, it had been the best night of my life to date, but he surely wouldn't feel that way, would he? No, of course not. He would preobably regret the whole thing. I mean, who would sleep with me? I'm nothing special, as I have been told many times before. I shuddered at that thought. No, I thought, don't think about it, don't think about it. It's in the past. But it was too late. The memories crashed down on me. I had to get out of there. So I quickly got dressed, careful to not wake the sleeping Adonis in the bed. And I left. I left the house and went home to keep from having to deal with the consequences of my actions.

As expected, I had dozens of missed calls on my phone, all from Alice. Instead of listening to the many voice mails she left, I decided to call her back.

"Bella?" she answered on the first ring-typical.

"Yeah. What's up?" I said, trying to be casual.

"What's up? I'll tell you what's up. What's up is that you slept with someone and haven't called me to tell me about it!

"Sorry, but it was just a one-time thing Ali. I didn't plan on doing it. And I just got home. How did you know anyway?"

"Jasper's sister found you two in her bed. Which is gross by the way. But what do you mean 'it was a one time thing'? He obviously liked you well enough to sleep with you! Go for it!"

"No, Alice. I'm sure he regrets it. It was a drunken mistake- that's it. Look, I gotta go. Talk to you later." I hung up without waiting for an answer. I know it was mean, but I just didn't want to talk about it. It was a mistake. I would never think about it again.

How was it? I hope it was okay. In case it wasn't clear- yes, Bella does have a troubled past that will be revealed later in the story. Any guesses on what it is? PM me with guesses and I'll put your name in the authors note at the end of the next chapter, which will be in Edward's POV. YAYYY :). but i'll go from the morning after. PLEASE REVIEWW.
