TITLE: Reasons
BPOV
Just when you thought that things would start getting better, it got worst. I was fortunate before to have him with me. For me, to have the right to say that he's mine is enough, not literally but you get the idea. Those memories were the best memories I had in my entire life that I don't want to forget those times. Right, like that'll ever happen again. Cause after that incident, I wont dare to be with him ever again ... I hope.

"Who are you?" I asked the person next to me.
I was in the middle of thinking that Alice would be so tossed after I m free, but the exact things that my mind were thinking about right now is that I'm tied up, they placed a blindfold on me and is sitting beside a guy who they set me up with.
"Don't you dare speak!" Alice growled to the guy next to me.
"I swear Alice, after I m done with this, you are so dead!" I nearly shrieked.
First, I hate being their guinea pig, second, I hate being set up on a freaking blind date, when they know I already have a boyfriend, and third, I hate surprises. Alice should know this and she should've known that she'll be in a big trouble later.
"Chill Bella, its not like we're setting you up on a blind date. We would never do that." Alice said soothingly while I could hear Rose, Emmett, and Jasper chuckling under their breaths.
"Oh really?" I said sweetly. "Then why the hell is there a guy beside me? And that I could smell the food on the table and you asking me questions about my love life?" I demanded.
"Bella, we just think that your boyfriend isn't that good enough for you." Alice finally answered.
"Alice, you know that I love him for who he is. That's exactly why I agreed to be his girlfriend. I already love him Alice." I sighed.
When I said the last sentence, I felt the guy beside me stiffened.
"By the way Alice, who the hell is this guy beside me?" I finally remembered. I got caught up with talking Alice, and getting annoyed that I forgot that there was someone sitting beside me.
"Its-" Alice started but Emmett cut her off.
"How about a guessing game?" Emmett suggested and I groaned.
"Come on Bella, let's have a little fun just this once." Rose agreed.
"It's not a bad idea. You and your 'boyfriend' were so busy together that we hardly have time to hang out." Jasper agreed, emphasizing on the word boyfriend.
"They're right Bella, and you know they are. We had less time to be together that we barely have fun." Alice said.
They're teaming up on me and it's so unfair because I'm the only one in my group and they have a team of four. Oh, what the heck. I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a little fun.
"Okay fine." I gave in.
"Let's start." Emmett said. I could hear the smile on his voice. This is not gonna be good.
"Do I get to have any clue?" I asked in a small voice.
Emmett boomed into a roar of laughter due to the voice I made. The others followed too.
Just hearing Emmett laugh, would also want to make you laugh yourself, but I didn't. I was not in the mood for laughing right now, but I was most definitely irritated. Irritated by the fact that I'm sitting with somebody that I don't know, I but at the same time, I definitely know. The worst part was that I'm sure I'm gonna make a stupid mistake in front of him and he'll think that I'm stupid.
"Well? Do I get to have some clues?" I asked, irritation was clear on my voice.
"Sure, sure." Emmett muttered, then I sighed.
"What's the catch Emmett?" I said so that we can move on and know who this person is.
It was awkward sitting with him though. He didn't laugh when Emmett boomed into laughter and he seemed to go on with Alice and her crazy ideas. He even managed to stay quiet for this long. Its been 45 minutes for crying out loud!
"Oh, nothing. Just planning to ask you some of your past love life." he said, his eyes were practically wondering around now.
"Emmett, you know how I hate talking about my past relationships. Rose, tell him." I whined.
"You only have one past relationship, Bella." Alice corrected. I ignored her.
"Bella, I think just this once we should talk about this. It was making us crazy back then when you'll suddenly cry during lunch and you never want to talk about it, and when we start up with that conversation, you'll start screaming like someone close to you died. We were worried sick Bella." Rose explained.
"Fine. But tell me, do I know this guy beside me or are we even close enough to be best friends?" I asked, finally giving up. I felt the guy beside stiffened up again and I felt an awkward atmosphere embrace the room.
"You know this guy Bella and believe me, your closer than you could ever imagine." Alice answered and I kind of realized that double meaning in her sentence.
"Okay then. Throw your questions at me and spare me later on." I said, anxious to get this over with.
"Jeez. Calm down Bella, we're not gonna bite you." Alice muttered.
"Who wants to ask her questions first?" Emmett asked. "Oh, me." He said answering his own question.
"Why did you break up with him?" He asked.
Of all the question he could ask, he was asking me the question that I've already told them for a hundred times. Everybody sighed, except for Emmett and the guy beside me.
"What?" He demanded.
"Emmett, try asking something important." Rosalie sighed.
"Okay. Why did you break up with him?" Emmett asked again. They groaned, and again, the guy beside me and Emmett didn't. And here I'm wondering why they didn't cut him off yet.
I sighed. "Because he cheated on me Emmett." I answered, there was an edge to my voice.
"Cheated how?" He continued.
"He made out with that slut. I understood that she still has feelings for him but seeing him kiss her back," I shook my head in disappointment, but to my surprise, I was in fact disappointed. "I mean, if he wanted to break up with me or something, he could've just told me so, instead of seeing him with that ex-girlfriend of his. If he wanted her that badly then I'd respect that. But its just hard. It was too hard for me to let it all go. Our relationship lasted for two years and I just can't just forget everything he did to me, for me, and for us." I answered half-heartedly.
"Okay, so what if the reason he wants to break-up with you is because he's grown tired of you?" Emmett continued asking me, not giving the others a chance to ask their questions.
"Of course I can't do anything about that. One way or another, a time would definitely come for someone to get tired of you. So, I could've lived my life, contented that even once, he didn't cheat on me and was honest the whole time. I'd rather that than spotting him kissing some other girl." I explained. I didn't even think of the answer, it just flowed out of my mouth, and I also felt relieved that I'm not keeping anything from them anymore. But the darkness was not helping because I picture out everything that I tell them.
"Bella, what would you tell him if he was in this room together with us?" Alice asked cautiously, finally able to have her turn.
That took me out for a while. I thought about it for a minute or two and came up with my answer.
"I'll tell him to start digging his grave cause if he'll try to mess with me again, I swear he'll end up in the cemetery." I said in a bored tone. I know it was kind of a harsh thing for me to say knowing that I loved him once, but I just can't help it. He shot me straight to the heart. So now, I'll mind my own business and he'd better mind his own business too before I end up committing a murder.
"I think you're going overboard with this Bella. A lot of people had gone through this situation." Alice said, trying to soothe me, I guess.
"If a lot of people had the same experience as I did, then you wont mind mentioning one who is in the same kind of situation as me right?" I challenged.
I know there are a lot of guys out there who cheat on girls but mine is a totally different thing. It was 'Edward'. Just the boy next door, and that is the phrase that doesn't suit him at all. Edward is not just a 'boy next door'. He's something more than that. Promises are promises and it different with me and him so... I'll stop now. And stop thinking about him!
That took her off. "Bella, the main point is that you can't know that you can hurt him and stop this crazy talk of yours. It doesn't sound like you, but it suits you though."
"Not hurt him! Do think that I can't, and I wont hurt him? After what he did to me?" I shrieked. "Do think that I would just let him get away with this?" I demanded.
"Okay fine. Its your choice anyway." Alice sighed. "Are you alright over there?" Alice asked, but not to me, to the guy that was sitting beside me.
"Wait, don't talk yet." Alice commanded. "Hey Rose, Em, do you mind doing the untying thing?" Alice asked.
I didn't hear them say anything.
"Rose, you untie her and Emmett, don't let her take off the blindfold yet." Alice instructed.
I didn't hear them answer but instead, I felt someone helping me up and balancing me. While the other one was untying me, Rosalie I guess, I felt a strong hand around my wrist after Rose was done untying me, Emmett.
Finally.
"Are you okay there?" Alice asked, but still not directed towards me, that's when I focused my head so that I could recognize the voice of the mystery guy beside me.
