BPOV

I sighed running a hand through my long brown hair as I tried to figure out how to mail this some what of an application. I decided I should probally read over what I already had.

Dear Mr and Mrs Cullen,

I am interested in attending your camp for the summer. I am 18 years of age, female and currently studying the art of music and lititure. I am quite responsible so you shouldn't expect any trouble and I hope to be able to prove that to you. My friend Alice Brandon has been to the camp before and says that you have an area for those who wish to stay at the camp full time. I would love to be able to stay full time as my summer is completely blank besides working on my studies. I truely hope that you will consider me and if you don't mind I would love it if you could write back saying if I'm in or not.

Sincerally,

Miss I.M Swan.

I sighed again before hitting send and shutting off the computer. Carlise and Esme's summer camp was very popular. Everyone who had the sightest chance of a future in something that actually takes brains or talent goes there. My two best friends Mary Alice Brandon (Alice) and Roasalie Hale had gone for the past two summers practically begging my mother to let me join them. My mother, Renee, almost gave in but then she fell ill. I had to stay with her for the first and second year when Alice and Rose went back to camp to take care of her.

Just a few weeks ago my mother died. I cried for 3 days non stop with Alice and Rose by my side whispering comforting words and spending the night incase I needed them. Alice managed to convince me to send a letter to Carlisle and Esme to ask for a place in the camp so I could stay with them over the summer. I agreed because I honestly didn't want to be alone but I refused to tell them about my mothers death for their pity like Alice had suggested. But I knew if I didn't get in Rose would get me in.

The Cullens had two sons. Emmett and Edward. I had never met Edward but Emmett was dating Rosalie so he hung out with us a lot. I knew if I didn't get in Rose would flirt with Emmett untill I did get in.

"Isabella Marie Swan!" Charlie's voice yelled from downstairs. I flinched at the slurred words. He was drunk, like always. Ever since my mom died Charlie started drinking, and ever time he got home he would scream bad insulting words at me untill he fell asleep. He never did beat me or anything but the insulting words hurt enough. "BELLA! GET DOWN HERE NOW!"

"Coming!" I yelled back before running down the stairs and into the living room. I reminded myself that Rose and Alice would be here soon to protect me and then Charlie would stop. "Y-yeah dad?" I stuttered as I finally stood in front of him.

"What took you so long!? I thoughts sluts were supossed to be fast!" He screamed. I flinched and hung my head in shame letting a few tears fall. He continued like that for five minutes before he seemd to get the idea he wasn't hurting me enough. "By the way I saw Jacob today. We had a good laugh about how stupid you were not to realize any guy would ever fall for a girl like you!"

The tears fell full force now. "Stop." I mummbled not really wanting him to hear.

"What did you say to me you little bitch?" Charlie spat. I flinched but stayed silent. "I said what did you say?!" Just as the door opened revealing Alice and Rosalie Charlie slapped me hard. I fell to the floor rubbing my jaw that would now have a serious bruise.

"Bella!" Rose and Alice screamed running over to me. Before they could make it however Charlie took out a small knife and I felt the blade sink into my cheek fast but deep. I gasped putting my hand to my cheek and feeling the blood ooze between my fingers. The smell of rust and salt over took me and before I knew it everything went black. But not before I felt a sharp pain on my back.

"Bella! Bella! Please please be okay!" Alice's tiny voice cried.

"She will be Alice. Carlise said she'd be fine." Rose spoke calmly but I could tell she was holding back tears. Wait - Carlise? As in Carlisle Cullen? Oh crap I'm in the hospital! Ugh I hate it here!

"Rose? Alice? What happened?" I groaned and opened my eyes.

"Oh Bella! Thank god! I was so worried! Don't you ever do that to me again!" Alie cried throwing her arms around my neck. I chuckled and hugged her back.

"I promise I won't do that to you again Alice." I grinned. Rose told me all about Charlie beating me for the first time ans as the words slowy sunk in Dr Cullen walked in.

"Hello Bella. I'm glad to see you are awake." He grinned before checking my charts.

"Thanks. Umm how bad am I?" I grimaced at the pain in my cheek.

"Not too bad. You won't have a scar on your cheek since it wasn't too deep but I'm afraid you will have a scar on your back. Quite a big one to." He said giving me an apologetic look.

"What happened to my back?" I asked confused.

"Well, once you fell to the floor Charlie kinda sliced your back with the knife. It was a really big gash. Carlisle had to do 39 stitches on it before it would stop bleeding." Rose explained. I groaned when I finally felt the sharp pain in my back.

"Well I do have some good news." Carlisle said grinning again.

"Shoot." I grinned back. I couldn't really help it. His grin was so infectious.

"We got your email and you are being accepted ino the camp. Free of charge of course." Carlisle chuckled at the look of shock on my face.

"Really? You mean it!" I was thrilled and I completely forgot that he was probally just pitying me because of my condition. Carlisle gave me my room assignment and then told me Alice and Rose that we could drive down to the house tommorrow if we didn;t mind being early.

We agreed and the three of us left to pack our bags.

The next day we were in Alice's yellow porsche turbo singing along to random songs that we heard on the radio. Our favorite band was the Jonas Brothers. Alice popped in their new album and we sang along with every song as we already knew all the words.

"Rose!" Emmett boomed smiling widely as we pulled into the Cullens camp. It really wasn't a camp, more like a few large apartments that you could stay in and an actual food court and arena with a pool bowling ally and ice rink.

"Emmy!" Rose squealed jumping into his arms. Alice and I snickered behind their backs and started pulling the bags out of the trunk.

"Which room do you have Rosie?" Emmett asked winking.

"113. You?" She giggled. I rolled my eyes knowing exactly what would happen next.

"Why it just so happens that I'm in 113 as well." He winked again before they both started laughing. Alice pretended to gag and I giggled earning a glare from the two love birds.

"What?" Alice asked a little to innocently. Rose glared before picking up her bags and stalking off with Emmett into the building. "So miss Belly-Bells which room did you get?"

"Umm room 115 I think."

Alice giggled. "You think?"

"I have a bad memory." I shrugged.

"I'm in room 110. I wonder who my roomie will be? I hope he or she is nice." Alice rammbled on like that all the way into the building. I rolled my eyes but there was something that was bothering me.

"Alice why are Rose and Emmett allowed to be roomies?" I asked.

"Well the older campers are trusted so some of us get pared with the opposite sex. Everything is random except of course the two love birds room arrangments." She scoffed. I giggled and we parted as Alice entered her room and I unlocked mine. I took a deep breath before opening the door and stepping inside.

The room was large. There was three doors. One lead to a bathroom and the other two lead off to the two tiny bedrooms. I set my bags down and went to admire the room. There was 2 couchs and 1 bean bag chair set in front of large flat screen tv and a small kitchen set into the corner of the room. I smiled and went to unpack.

I had gotten great news from Emmett last week. Well two things actually. 1 Emmett said that he finally realized he was IN LOVE with Rose and was planning on telling her tonight. 2 the Cullens were expanding their camp into a full out college after summer and he said that Rose Alice and I have some how already been accepted!

While I unpacked I hummed burning up under my breath since all my real belongings including all my Jonas Brothers crazy fan girl stuff wouldn't be here untill tommorrow.

I had just finished when Alice raced into my room. "BELLA! BELLY BELLY BELLA!" She sang.

"Yes Alice?" I grinned holding back my laughter.

"Can we have a movie night here? Just you me Rose Emmett Jasper and your room mate when they get here!" She pouted making her bottom lip quiver.

"Of course we can all - wait Jasper? Who's Jasper?" I asked.

"My room mate. And my god Bella he is gorgeous." She sighed.

"Wait is Alice Brandon. the Alice Brandon crushing on a boy?" I smirked remembering Alice say she didn't crush on boys they crushed on her.

"Shut up!" She growled. "We'll be here in a few minutes. So make some snacks and wear PJs." And with that Alice skipped from the room. I sighed and went to find PJs. I chose a pair of SHORT shorts and a cute shirt I had gotten from Alice for my birthday. It was very tight and showed off my figure. The whole outfit was a dark blue that went best with my skin.

I popped a lot of popcorn before Alice skipped in with Emmett Rose and a tall blonde guy with icy blue eyes.

We decided to watch the grudge so all the lights were out when my room mate showed up.

EPOV

I ran my hand through my already messy bronze colored hair nervously. My father told me that my room mate would stay the same after summer when the camp turned into a college so I really hoped we'll get along well.

My hand trembled a little as I reached out to open the door. I could hear someone watching the grudge so I knew I was the last to arrive. When the door opened the room was dark with only a little light from the tv. I squinted trying to make out the figures infront of it. There was more than one so my roomie must have been having some sort of movie night.

One figure looked fairly familiar. He was huge in a muscular way and I knew exactly who he was when he let out a booming laugh. "Emmett?" I grinned. At least my brother would be in the same building as me.

"EDDIE!" He boomed before pulling me into a bone crushing hug.

"Emmett... can't ... breath!" I gasped and they all laughed.

"Sorry bro. Hey guys this is my little bro Eddie!" He laughed.

"Edward if you don't mind." I sighed.

"Well EDWARD this is my little gang." Emmett chuckled. "Bella can you get the lights?"

The lights flicked on and I blinked before being able to really see.

"Okay. This beautifull creature right here is Rosalie Hale, my girlfriend." Emmett pointed to a pretty blonde in bright red PJs who smiled at me. I smiled back giving a slight nod. "This little pixie here is Alice Brandon." This time he pointed to another pretty girl but who had black spikey hair, was alot shorter and wearing light green PJs. She waved at me and I waved back a little confused but still grinning. "This cool dude here is Jasper Whitlock." He pointed to a tall boy with honey blonde hair and Ice blue eyes. He was wearing plaid pants and a plain white t-shirt like Emmett just a different color of plaid. He nodded and smiled and I did the same making him chuckle.

They seemed to be having some strange party. The two girls were wearing the same tight PJ set in different colors and Emmett and Jasper had the same outfit just with different colored pants.

"Nice to meet all of you." I grinned. I heard a small 'Ahem' behind me and I turned only to see the most beautifull creature I had ever layed eyes on.

"Since Emmett is ignoring me, I'm Bella Swan." The girl shook my hand and I grinned. She also was wearing the same PJs but in a dark blue. Her brown hair hung low and had a glint of red in it barely visible. Her eyes were a chocolate brown color and her lips were full and pink. In that one moment I wondered what they would feel like under mine.

"Nice to meet you Bella." I said surprised that I didn't stutter. When we pulled our hands back I imidiatly missed the warmth that had been radiating from her skin. I prayed that she wasn't my room mate because I would have to work extremely hard to avoid temptation.

"Bella's leaving out the most important part." The girl named Alice smirked. "She's your new room mate."

I felt two different things then. Happiness and worriedness. Happiness cause I really like Bella already and worry because I don't know how I'm going to last.

I watched the movie with them and the accepted me into their groupe with open arms. I laughed with them the whole time feeling completely comfortable and... free?

After the movie Alice dragged me outside. She told Jasper she would be right back and lightly kissed his cheek. I noticed that his eyes lit up and when Alice wasn't looking he touched the spot where her lips touched and grinned stupidly.

"Spill." Alice said darkly crossing her arms over her chest.

"Excuse me?" I aked confused.

She sighed annoyed. "Details Edward! I saw you looking at Bella."

"I... ah... umm." Oh that was the best responce! Why am I such an idiot?!

"Shut up and listen lover boy!" Alice giggled. I rolled my eyes but kept my mouth shut. "I think Bella likes you to but she has been through alot of pain. Her mother died and well I'll let her tell you about the rest when she's ready. Just don't hurt her!" Alice glared at me before stomping down the hall and into room 110.

I ran over her words in my head. I don't know how I could live with myself if I hurt an angel like Bella. I would basically crawl into a hole and hope death would take me.
