Chapter One

Twilight

I let out a deep breath and opened the door.

It was beautiful… and big, two story in fact. The lights were off, the ceiling was made of crystal clear glass, to illuminate the building.

The first floor was wide, a large dance floor and a stage for the DJ. Across from me was the magnificent bar. It was long and had several multi-colored lights along the countertop. At both ends it jutted out into a circular platform with a pole in the middle. Hmm. The second floor was for resting. It had half circle couches, tables for drinks and a few café tables and stools.

"You must be Bella, I'm Alice," I heard. I spun around to see a beautiful girl behind the bar. She was short and thin with short, spiky black hair.

"Yeah, there was an opening for a waitress?" I asked, crossing over to the bar to shake her tiny hand. "Yes, yes there was. Um, you're a little early, the others don't get here until eight.

"Oh… Maybe I could come back then?"

"How about you just come at ten? Dress to impress and expect to be busy. You start tonight."

I choked. "Tonight? Um, don't you need my resume?"

"No, I think you'll make the cut. Unless you have something planned?"

I quickly shook my head, then noticed a honey-blonde man walk in from the back with a crate of liquor. "Jasper, this is the new girl, Bella…"

"Swan," I finished for her.

"I'm Jasper, the second in command bartender," he said setting the crate down and shook my hand.

"Second in command?" I asked a little confused. The two laughed. "Him and Edward have a little competition every month on who serves the best drink. It's fun, they make original mixes. Edward has never lost, earning the first in command bartender," Alice explained.

"Well its almost five, I have an appointment with the mall, see you tonight Bella!" Alice chirped and grabbed her purse. "You okay with stocking by yourself for a little while?" She asked Jasper and kissed his cheek. "I'll manage," he chuckled. "Well I'll head out too, I have to tend to my puppy," I announced proudly. I never was one to really have pets while I was younger. I couldn't even keep a goldfish alive for at least three weeks.

"Puppy?! What kind?" Alice squealed. I laughed. "He's a Husky, his name is Kilo." She arched a brow. "I didn't name him, it's a long story. It was nice meeting you."

I left the club, but turned back to see the large logo beside the double doors. Twilight.

"Yes, Dad. I have the door locked." I sighed. Having a cop as a Dad could get you annoyed when you leave him in safe town Forks with the population of 3,120.

"And what about a job? Have you found a place?"

"Yes, a club. They hired me on the spot, it was nice. I met Alice, another waitress and her boyfriend who is a bartender. They were real kind. I start tonight."

There was a pause before a whoosh of air.

"A club? Bells, are you sure? You're a little young to start at some bar-"

"Dad, I'm twenty-one. And it's a night club, not a bar. Its professional, no bikers, I promise. Look I got to get ready for tonight, love ya." I hung up quickly and began to get ready.
