A/N: Hello, everyone. This is the first Twilight fic I'm posting (I have another that I'm working on, but I'm not too sure about it yet). This idea literally just popped into my head, and I thought I'd see where I can take it. It's going to be a drabble fic, since that's where I feel most comfortable right now. Short chapters, updated regularly. Let me know if you're on board! :)
Summary: Bella goes through a nasty break-up that changes her view on life. Will a one night encounter with the charming Edward Cullen be enough to change her mind? Will true love find her when she least expects it? E/B, AH, AU, Happily Ever After, I promise. Rated M for language and future lemons.
Disclaimer: I own nothing Twilighty. All of that is thanks to Stephenie.

"Alice," I practically whine. "Do we really have to go out tonight?" I'm in a sour mood and don't want to get out of my pajamas tonight, let alone go clubbing with my two best friends.
"Yes, we do. You've been moping around over Jacob for too long and it's time you moved on. Right, Rose?" Alice gives Rosalie a look, and I know I won't be winning this battle. When it's the two of them against me, I don't stand a chance in hell.
"Right, Ali. Now Bella, get your ass in the shower. We're leaving at nine o'clock." I glance at the clock on my cell phone. Good. I have an hour to look presentable. I get up off the couch in the living room and head to my bedroom, Rose pushing me down the hallway.
"Okay, okay. I'm going to take a shower. Now, are you going to let me have some privacy, or do you plan on joining me?" I ask sarcastically. These girls will not leave me alone!
"As tempting as that offer is, I'm gonna have to pass," Rose counters with a wink. "Now go!"
With that, I close the door to my bathroom, leaving Rose in my bedroom. Great, she's probably going to tear through my closet with Alice to find me something hot to wear. I roll my eyes at the thought as I turn on the water and wait for it to heat up.
As I step into the shower, I let the water work out the tension in my neck that I hadn't noticed earlier. I guess I'm just nervous about tonight. Sure, Ali and Rose are right. I've been pining for Jake for way longer than I should be. But we were together for over a year. When I found out he was cheating on me, I was devastated. Part of me wanted to rip that bitch Tanya's head off her shoulders, but then I realized that I didn't care enough anymore. Maybe it had been like that for a while, I don't know. But after a few weeks, I realized it wasn't Jacob that I missed. It was the feeling of being in love and knowing my place in life that I found myself longing for.
Maybe Alice and Rose were right; maybe tonight will be a good thing.
A fresh start for me.
Just like that, I feel a shift to my old self. I promise to be the fun-loving, happy-go-lucky, slightly foul-mouthed party girl, even if only for one night. I won't ruin tonight for my best friends. I will be myself, and see where that leads me.
Feeling excited for my new start, I step out of the shower and dry myself off. After running a brush through my hair, I wrap my towel around me and walk into my bedroom.
I was right. There, standing next to my bed—where some clothes had already been laid out—are Rose and Alice. The looks of mischief that are evident on their faces would have made me nervous twenty minutes ago, but now I feel my expression mirroring theirs.
Tonight is going to be fuckawesome.
A/N: What do you lovely people think? Y'all on board? :)
xoxo
