This is my first ever fanfic posting so please be gentle.

Stephenie Meyer's characters etc - I'm just playing around with them.


"Come on Bells, the car's waiting."

I looked out of the window to see the pink hummer waiting for me. Argh. Someone remind me why I let Alice plan my Bachelorette party again? I hate pink!

"Coming Dad."

I took one last glance at myself in the mirror. I suppose I looked kind of okay but not compared to the girls I knew were waiting in the car. Oh well, I would have to do.

I was wearing a black dress with diamante detail around my chest, and the highest pair of pumps I had ever dared to put my feet in. The girls had all got together to buy me the Roberto Cavalli shoes that I was currently very afraid of so I knew I had to wear them. I would be so much more comfortable in my jeans and converse.

Three minutes later after somehow manoeuvring the stairs I was at the door ready to go.

My dad, Charlie, was in the kitchen fixing a pizza for himself.

"Bye Dad."

"Bye Bells. Have fun but not too much. Jake won't be too happy to see pictures of his wife with half naked men or anything like that."

I grimaced and rolled my eyes.

Jake wouldn't care. He didn't care about too much these days apart from his precious garage. All that aside, I would actually kill Alice if she had booked a stripper.

"I'm not anyone's wife yet dad"

"No, not yet but only three weeks to go and you can start living your married life without me hanging on. I will miss you though Bells."

"Oh, come on dad. Don't be such a softie. I'm only going to be living at the res and you know you'll be there all the time anyway."

"Bellllllllaaaaaaaa"

"I'm coming Alice. Love you dad"

I opened the car door to hear a Champagne cork popping and cheers coming from my best friends. Alice, Lauren, Angela and Jessica were all sat waiting looking gorgeous as usual.

I smiled at the girls but couldn't help look around at all the empty seats. I still didn't understand why Alice got such a big car. I tried to tell her that none of Jacob's family would come. I did invite his two sisters Rachel and Leah and his stepmom Sue just to be nice really but I wasn't surprised when they sent a message through Jake saying they wouldn't be coming. We didn't get on and that was putting it nicely.

I looked at Alice as she handed me a glass of Champagne. "So, do I get to find out where we are going now?"

"Well I know you're not a big club girl, so I have found a tiny jazz bar in Port Angeles and booked a table there for dinner. Then we can see where the night takes us. There are two clubs nearby if you fancy it after having a few drinks but it's your night so it's really up to you. I can't believe your getting married Bella …"

"Alice! Breathe" I had to stop her before she passed out or something.

"Sorry, I'm just so excited. We never go out and you're getting married and …"

"...and she's had two glasses of wine before leaving" laughed Jessica.

All too soon we pulled to a stop and the door was opened by the driver.

"Um, are you sure this is the right place" said Angela.

We were in a kind of shabby, dark, back street with just a few buildings in it.

"This is definitely the address I was given" said the driver who's name was Ben, according to his name badge. He pointed to the sign that said 'Eclipse' and glanced at Alice.

She looked at me apologetically. "It looked really nice on the internet."

I couldn't help but feel bad. I didn't want to go in there but I knew Alice had spent a lot of time looking for somewhere I would like. "It'll be fine girls – come on."

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Ben take Angela's phone and press some keys. "I'll stay close by, just in case."

I pushed open the door and couldn't believe the sound coming from inside. It was the most beautiful voice I think I had ever heard

"I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you"

I heard all the girls gasp beside me and realised I had my eyes closed. Wow, it was absolutely beautiful inside. There was a small stage with a band and two male singers on with about a dozen tables in front of it. Further back there were about ten tables all set ready for dinner. Crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling and a few worn leather sofas were scattered around.

I heard Alice giving her name to a lady who introduced herself as Siobhan. She had an Irish accent and she just seemed to fit with the whole place. I assumed she owned it. We were ushered to a table covered in pink confetti and pink balloons. I think I probably rolled my eyes again.

"I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you"

I heard everyone around me break out in applause and a couple of wolf-whistles and I realised the song had finished. I eventually joined in with the applause and looked up at the stage. The two male singers were looking in our direction. I realised Jessica and Lauren were the ones doing the whistling. I looked down embarrassed but not before I saw the most stunning pair of green eyes looking directly at me.


As I said at the beginning, this is my first ever posting of anything like this. Please let me know what you think - good or bad - and whether or not you think I should continue with this story. I have a rough idea of where I see it going but please tell me any ideas you may have.

Also I am English trying to write an American story so if I get any words wrong, please let me know. :-) xx
