Preface

From Bella's Eyes

Dior. Chanel. Armani. Prada. Louis Vuitton. Gucci. Dolce & Gabbana. Jimmy Choo.

Alice and Rosalie had definitely missed New York.

Not that I hadn't.

And though I was eternally grateful for them traveling all the way to Florida to help me with my new life- which actually could now be considered the older, dark part of my life-, I still hated shopping in New York with them. I would much rather spend my time people watching in Times Square, or strolling around Central Park.

But that didn't stop Rosalie from jamming my foot into a stiletto heel, or Alice from slipping my obviously large butt into a cocktail dress.

That's it Bella. We're getting you out of the dark, and into the fluorescent lights of New York
City!"

Whatever. They would physically force me to go if they had to. I called it mutiny. They called it help.

"I know that your hurting right Bella- trust me I feel your pain"

"Do you?"

She continued like I hadn't even spoke, "But me and Rose are worried about you. You got to move on in your life."

I sighed and fell back against the pillow, "You make it sound so easy."

Rosalie smiled slightly, "Nobody said it was going to be easy."

Alice patted my head while I closed my eyes, "But you have to try."

I grunted in defeat, "Fine."

They grinned and Alice jumped to her feet, "Go get dressed."

…

From Edward's Eyes

Bloody Mary. Fuzzy Navel. Dry Martini. Tequila. Strawberry Daiquiri. Jello Shots.

Emmett and Jasper really missed New York.

Not that I didn't.

I completely regret dragging them all the way to California with me just to find a girl- who I thought was the love of my life. I spent months trying to make her happy, trying to make her feel good, and she ends up screwing me over by screwing another guy. The least I could do was go clubbing with them, even if it killed me. Well, that's what they said. I tried to get out of it, using every excuse in the book.

That didn't stop Emmett from calling me every dirty name he could think of, and Jasper from ordering and bugging me to go.

Come on Edward! She was just a bitch that was looking for a good time! Get over it!

Good old Emmett. All about being Sensitive. Pause for eye roll and dramatic sigh.

"What are you going to do? Stay in for the rest of you life? Eating Chinese take out and watching reruns of Family guy?" Emmett punched me in the arm.

"I could try."

Jasper rolled his eyes and turned to face me, "This would really help you out Edward. Who knows, you might find someone else!"

"I don't know about you, but I'm ready for some action!" Emmett boomed. 'Inside voice' was never inserted into his vocabulary.

"If I go, will you guys stop bugging me after tonight?"

Jasper grinned, "We promise."

I groaned in defeat, "Fine."

Emmett jumped up and bounced out of the room, "Get dressed! And eat a little something Eddie."

Jasper smirked, "Better save some room for the alcohol."

…

True love comes quietly, without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells, get your ears checked.

So, after reading tons of Twilight fan fictions, I finally decided to try and write my own. Tell me what ya think so far!
