Here is my second fanfic. I hope this is better then my last one. I went to say thank you to everyone who took the time to read my last story and I hope you take the time to read this one. Thank you to my beta reader, Love is a gift, for take time out of her day to read this over and get back to me so fast. Please enjoy and take the time to review. One note, Edward's career is something I made up. I have no idea if people really do that for a living.

Also awlays Twilight and all characters are owned by Stephenie Meyer. I just enjoy writing with them.

so much for my happy ending

My happy ending, Avril Lavigne

"James, how could you do this. We have been together for almost 8 years. This is our home." I'm hurt, angry , heartbroken, and jealous. My face is bright red and tears are streaming down my face. I'm on the verge of begging him to stay.

"Just get your shit and get the hell out." He yells back at me.

"You are really kicking out for that whore Victoria. You know your not special to her. She'll sleep with anything."

I can see him getting more and more mad from my words. I did not see him move but the next thing I knew he had a hold on my face. His palm under my chin squeezing my cheeks between his thumb and fingers as he slams my into the wall. I was barely on my tip toes.

"Don't you ever talk about her like that. She is 100 times more of a woman then you, she is more beautiful then you, she is sexier then you, and she is a whole lot better in bed then you." He yelled it right in my face. With a hard push on my face I hit the wall again. "Get you shit and be out of here before she gets here at 8 o'clock." Then he walks out of the front door.

What and the hell just happened. James has always been loving with me. Always good and gently with me. He has never laid a hand on me . Now it felts like my jaw was broken and I had a goose egg forming on the back of my head, maybe ever bleeding. I know my jaw is not broken, but it hurts like hell.

I'm crying so hard I can hardly breath, but I pull my cell phone out of my back pocket. I have to call someone for help.

"Al----Al----Alice." It is all I could get out of my mouth.

"Bella, what's wrong?" I can hear the worry in her voice.

"Hel—Hel----Help me."

"Where are you?"

"Home."

"I'll be right there." Then the phone went dead.

It was not even 10 minutes when I heard the front door fly open and Alice rushed to my side. I was still on the floor by the wall. I looked up at her.

"What the hell happened to you?" The panic in her voice got Emmett and Jasper's attention. In a second they were standing over me.

"Oh, my god, Bella." Jasper said as a pained look crossed his face.

I knew I looked bad from crying hard like I was, but not that bad. I put my hands up to whip my tears off my face. I brushed my hand across my jaw and winced in pain. My whole jaw line on both side are swollen. Alice handed me ice pack to put on my face and one on the back of my head.

"Bella, sweetie. Tell us what happened." Rose said in a nice calming voice.

I picked myself up off the floor and moved to the couch. I told them all that happened between James and I. I don't think I have ever seen Emmett and Jasper so mad. Alice and Rose sat and held me. My hurt turned to angry, but my body was spent. I felt like I could sleep for days.

"Jasper, take Bella back to our house. Rose, Emmett and I will pack up her stuff. Make her eat something. Make sure she drinks a lot of water." Alice ordered.

I handed Jasper the keys to my car and he hauled me out to my car.

When we got to Alice and Jasper's house I went to the bathroom to clean up. As I washed my face in cold water as I looked in the mirror. I looked terrible. My eyes were red and swollen. My face was pale and streaked from tears. My jaw was swollen on both sides and fresh bruises just starting to form on both sides. My hair on the back of my head was caked with dry blood. How did this happen? Not even a month ago James and I were happy. We were talking about getting married. How did it all change so fast? I finished in the bathroom and met Jasper in the kitchen. He had a sandwich and a glass of water waiting on the table for me.

"How are you feeling?" He looked sad and worried.

"I'm holding up. I'm mad and hurt. What am I going to do now?"

"Don't worry about it now. You just need to rest. Finish you food and water then go lay down in my room."

"Thank you, Jasper."

"Hey, that is what friends are for." He smiled a lazy smile at me.

I woke to darkness. I stretched out my body and let the ache take over. I hurt from head to toe. I looked over at the clock on the bed side table to see it was after 9 o'clock. Everyone should be back by now. So I got up and headed to the living room.

Everyone was sitting around the living room talking. Alice stood up and walked over to me.

"Honey, how are you?" Alice asked as she put a arm around me.

"Okay, I guess."

Alice lead me over to sit on the couch with her and Rose.

"We got all your stuff we thought you would want. I put your clothes in the den. Boxes with your books, your mother's things and other stuff I thought you would want it's all in the garage." Alice informed me.

"Thank you guys. I'm sure you got everything I wanted."

"What are you going to do now?" Rose asked.

"In the morning I have a meeting at work. After that I'll go to get money out of the bank and start looking for a place to live."

"You still have the money your mom left you?" Alice went with me when my mom dead. So she knew how much my mom left me.

"With what my mom left me and what I saved, I have about 75 thousand. It will be more then enough to get a place."

"Rose and I will take tomorrow off and we can start looking. You can stay a few day here. We don't have a room for you. With Rose and Emmett staying with us as their house is being redone. But the couch is all yours." Alice is the best. I love her like a sister.

"Thank you. I'll be out of your hair as fast as I can."

I went to my meeting in the morning. Then talked my boss and took a few personal days off from work. I went to the bank. Then back to Alice's.

"I can not believe that mother fucker did that." I was yelling as I walked in to the house.

"What is going on?" Rose asked walking over to me.

"James cleaned out and closed our joint saving and checking account. He took it all. The bank manager said there is nothing I can do. I have nothing." Rose held me in her arms as I fell apart.

I woke up hours later in Alice's bed again. Alice was sitting on the side of the bed waiting for me to wake.

"Hey, feeling better?"

"I think so."

"What do you think you are going to do now?"

"I have no idea. My mom is gone. My dad live so far away. He doesn't have any money to help me out. I don't know what to do." I was about in tears again.

"Well, I called and talked to my brother Edward. He has a house here, but he is never home. He travels all week and is only home on the weekends. He said you can stay there as long as you need to. With you working on weekends you will never see each other." She was all smiles. She was pleased with herself for fixing things for me.

"Alice, thank you ,but I don't know. We have knew each other for what 10 years. Since our first year of collage and I have never met Edward. I know your whole family. Love them as my own. How have I never met Edward?"

"Edward is a good man. Loving, caring, but he works a lot. Always working. Hardly takes a day off. This will work out for you."

"Okay. I have no where else to go."

"Good. I have a key to Edward's house. He told me to gave it to you. He also told me to gave you his cell number and E-mail address. He said to make your self at home. I'll take you there tomorrow."

"Thank you, Alice."

EPOV

Work was hell toady. One meeting after another. Listening to one person after an other talk about the new miracle drug that will cure everything. Now they want my company to make it. I was in between meetings now. I needed a break and a cup of coffee or something stronger. I don't know if I could handle another meeting. I just sat down with my coffee when my cell phone went off.

"Hey, baby sis, What can I do for you?"

"What makes you think I want something?" Alice laughed at me.

"Now you are being funny. You never call me in the middle of the day like this."

"Okay, I'll get right to the point then."

"Good because I'm in between meetings right now."

"You know my friend Bella, right?"

"I know of her. I have never meet her."

"Anyways, She has found herself in a really bad way right now and needs a place to stay for awhile. I was thinking she can stay at your place. You are never there."

"Alice, I don't know Bella. Why would I let her stay with me." Now that really surprised me.

"Come on Edward. Her boyfriend of 8 years just kicked her out of their house to move in an other woman. He man handled her. Left her face all swollen and bruised. Then took all her money out of their saving and checking account. She has no place to go."

"She can stay with you and Jasper."

"We have Emmett and Rose staying here. Bella had to sleep on the couch."

I was about to cave. I could never say no to Alice. I really have to think this one over.

"I tell you what, I have a meeting in about 45 minutes. Let me think this over. Okay? I'll let you know before my meeting."

"Thank you, Edward. Bella works overnights and ever weekend. So you will more then likely never see her when you're home. She is also a clean freak. So you won't even know she is there."

"Don't try and sale me on this. I need time to think this over." I had to cut her off or she would never stop.

"Okay, I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, Alice. I'll talk to you in a little bit." I put my phone down and let out a heavy sigh.

I knew my family loved Bella. My mom and dad adored her. Emmett and Alice loved her like a sister. They even liked James. I could not figure out how he could do this to Bella. My family was always a good judge of character. How could they be so far off the mark with him? My heart really went out to Bella on this one.

I picked up my phone and gave Emmett a call. I know Alice told me everything but I needed a mans point of view on this.

20 minutes later I put down my phone. My heart was breaking for this woman I never met. Emmett told me how they found Bella curled up on the floor of her house. Her face red and tear stained and body jerking from crying so hard. Her lower face swollen and bruised from this man squeezing her jaw in his hand. Her head bleeding from where is hit the wall. Emmett told me in such detail it was almost like I was there. He also told me about the beating he gave this James when he showed up at Bella's house as him and Alice packed Bella's things. I told Emmett Alice told me about Bella's money. Emmett was about to go find James and kill him now. I didn't know the money was from Bella's mom who died last year. It was not a whole lot to me, but for someone worked hard like Bella it was a lot.

After I talked to Emmett, I called Alice and told her it was okay for Bella to stay at my house. She was right, I'm never home and Bella worked the weekends I'm home. I would never see her.
