Chapter 1

'Bella that Guy over there is totally Checking you out' '' uh you mean the guy with the ponytail, Gross Tanya! I think I'd need a few dozen more Mojito's before I'd feel the need to subject myself to that''.

'Who cares about a Ponytail he looks Rich, you know you're the only one of us now that doesn't have a Boyfriend or Fiancé! I'm kinda embarrassed for you B….your not like into girls are you'' ''so what, I haven't met anyone not going to jump the first guy who pervs over me & no I am not into girls OK'' this was becoming so tiresome.

'Well maybe you should just jump anyone god knows you need to get Fu- ohh Savannah over here'

Oh my God you wouldn't believe the day I've had, first my Favourite Jimmy choos Broke & then this guy at the offi...

Savannah god I can't stand her but she's Tanya's cousin, I've known Tanya since I was Ten years old when I moved to Seattle with my Mom after she divorced my Dad.

We weren't always so close She was Popular & I was….Geeky. she'd spend her Money on flavoured lip balms & charge boys who wanted to try Kissing while I was spending my pocket money at the Bookstore But she'd show me how to do my Hair & I'd help her with Homework so it was all good eventually with her Help as we got older My name Bella Swan actually became fitting I never felt Beautiful my long brown hair used to make me feel like cousin It from the Addams Family sometimes but she showed me how to style it & wear makeup now she is a Beauty editor for Glow Magazine where I also work as a Columnist on all things life related .Despite my new found Beauty…. I've never had a serious Boyfriend & I'm still a virgin at Twenty Five. Something has always stopped me from getting intimate with Guys I don't want a Random thing but I'm not ready to commit either, I always felt when I meet someone that I want to give that part of myself to I'll know, Tanya is getting married in two months & wants to find me a date for the wedding so here I sit with my Friend in a raging Nightclub full of Horny slimy Men & Savannah who checks out her reflection more times a day than you'd blink. After more cocktails than I can count right now the men in here are starting to look appealing….or maybe not.

''Hey there Beautiful, I couldn't help admiring you from across the Bar far too tempting for me not to introduce myself, I'm James & you are?''

''So not Interested'' Oh don't mind Bella you don't want her anyways she's a Virginnn. Savannah smirks & whispers in his ear but she's so drunk it probably sounds like a whisper to her in fact she shouts it to the whole Bar & that's my cue to leave.

''oh come on Bella Don't leave you know that's just how savannah is & she's Drunk plus I mean…well you are a virgin & were trying to help you not be & your being very difficult right now & this is my Wedding & you should have a date cos otherwise your gonna look sad & then the whole wedding will be on a downer''

''Ok firstly, Tanya I don't need any Help losing my Virginity I'm perfectly capable of losing it if I want to & you have no right to make me feel bad about choosing to share it with someone I love rather than some random loser as far as ruining your wedding goes that's like …so ...so Fucking Stupid if your wedding isn't going to be the happiest day of your life because I won't have a date for it then maybe you shouldn't be getting married!''

Yes I just stormed off on my Best friend & left her at the Bar with her drunk Cousin but im so sick of them making a big deal about this. Sometimes I think I should just give it up but then I know when I do meet someone I want to share the rest of my life with I'd regret it forever that they weren't my first.

''Hola Bella wait up'' oh God that James guy from the bar what the hell does he want.

''Hey Beautiful you forgot your scarf''…''oh thank you.'' I turn to walk away but he grabs my arm which automatically puts me in freeze mode there's something about him that creeps me out & suddenly I can't get away fast enough.

''Where you going, let me walk you home.'' '' No that's alright it's not that far really''.

''Come on don't be such a party pooper, you know when I saw you in the club I knew you were innocent I could see it in your eyes & it made me want you even more.''

He pushes me into a back alley , I half scream but then he covers my mouth….suddenly I'm on the ground trying to kick him off me with all my strength but it's no good so I bite his hand instead . ''Ow Bitch'' he grabs my hair when I try to run & He slaps me hard across the face & all I see is a Blurry shadow of another man standing in the alley & then blackness…
