Before He Cheats

I know Edwards been cheating on me for a while. It hurt at the beginning don't get me wrong. Now I've gotten over the hurt I'm planning to hurt him like he did me.

I found out two months ago. I went round to his house after school with Alice since we had homework for maths, we always do it together. That day, Edward had left school early claiming that 'he wasn't well'.

Anyway when we arrived and had started our task we heard noises coming from upstairs and I knew it was coming from Edwards's room as everyone else was out. To be honest I had been suspicious of his behaviour for a while; so, Alice and I sneaked up the stairs to outside his room and sure enough you could hear him having sex with some tramp. I stormed down the stairs to the kitchen table and started crying.

I stopped after about a minute when a plan began to form in my head, I looked up to Alice with an evil smirk on my face; all tears had certainly stopped falling.

"Oh no, Bella, I know that look. What are you thinking?" Alice looked at me curiously as she said it.

"Well let's just say I plan to hurt him as much or maybe even more than he has me." I whispered to her with a glint of evil in my eye.

"Well what do you plan to do? Oh, and I want to help!" she looked excited and apprehensive at the same time.

"Well have you heard and seen the video for the song 'Before He Cheats' by Carrie Underwood?"

"No, why?"

"I'll show you the video later but I'll just play you the song, concentrate on it." While I said this I picked up my iPod and started playing the song to Alice.

As soon as it finished I looked at Alice and she definitely had a smug looking expression on her face.

"Show me this video now." I chuckled and got my phone out and showed her the video on YouTube.

When it finished, she was laughing her evil laugh. So I knew she was on board with whatever I was planning.

"Well when do you plan to do this?"

I thought about it for a bit, when I remembered Edward telling me last week that he's getting a new car in a few months. There's also a school concert a week after that.

"You know he's getting a new car in a couple of months?" she nodded "Well I was planning on singing in the concert anyway, that's about a week or so after he's due to get the car, now I know what to sing and what I'm going to do last lesson of that day because Edward promised he'll be there."

She squealed as she knew what I was going to do.

"Well last lesson I plan on doing is the exact thing in that video. Then sing that... well you get the gist."

We were so into the conversation that we didn't hear Emmett and Rosalie come into the kitchen.

"What are you gonna do?" When Rosalie said this me and Alice jumped a mile in the air, which caused Emmett to laugh his head off.

"Err... nothing. Look Alice I'm gonna head home. Can you pick me up in the morning?" I looked at her with pleading eyes.

"Sure, I'll walk you out."

"Tell Edward I'll call him later" I winked at Alice to which she laughed. Rosalie and Emmett looked at us like we'd gone mad "You'll find out soon" and with that I walked out.

While I was driving home all I could think about my relationship with Edward and where it went wrong.

I went along the next couple of months acting as if nothing had happened but when Edward kissed me all could think about was him and Jessica and the others and oh I know there are others.

Today was the day of the concert, this morning I took extra care of my appearance and made Alice pick me up to double check everything on the plan. She's been telling me about Edward and his cheating with all these girls from our school. Emmett, Rosalie and Jasper know about the plan. They're coming to watch me tonight but to mainly watch Edwards's reaction. I'm on at the very end so it's Jasper and Emmett's job to keep him away from his car.

Alice had everything: baseball bat, pen knife and most important the spare keys. She also had my outfit and backing track with her.

During the day I was very excited but managed to contain it unlike Alice who couldn't help but randomly squeal, earning her a few odd looks. I pulled her away at lunch and told her to meet me outside of my classroom 4th lesson. I couldn't concentrate through Spanish which is really unlike me. I really didn't care about bunking 5th lesson with Alice because we had a catch up lesson in maths and we knew what was going on.

When the bell went to signal the end of 4th lesson I all but jumped out of my seat and ran to the door to a waiting Alice and Jasper who was jumping up and down in excitement.

"You ready?" She nodded her head so fast I thought it might come off. "I just need to get the things from my locker and we can go." We started walking as fast as we could without looking extremely weird, to my locker to collect the stuff.

"Okay, but we need to be quick if we want to avoid suspicion. Oh, Em and Rose say good luck."

"Well, here we are," I entered my combo and as I was retrieving the heavy bag from my locker, I heard Alice kissing Jasper goodbye. I don't know why but it made me feel sad. "Ready?"

She nodded again, "Let's go."

As we were walking out the gates towards where Edward parked 'his baby', he always parked outside which I never understood although now I know why, me and my best friend couldn't stop giggling until the car came into view. However, I never expected to see the car moving around in fast rocking movements, though this pented my anger to an all-time high. I couldn't wait to smash this car to pieces.

Alice had to drag me into a nearby bush to hide from the car I could tell she was just as pissed off as me since her nails were digging into me so hard. We stayed extremely quiet, as not to attract attention to us.

We had to wait for 10 minutes for the 'love birds' to appear; when they did they were laughing and straightening their hair and clothes. They stopped right in front of me and Alice and kissed for an extra few minutes. He had a nerve.

When they had finally gone, Alice let out a huge breath while I let out a little growl. I couldn't wait to do this. Me and Alice got out, in my case I somehow fell out, of the bush and dusted ourselves off.

"Let me do this, Alice, I don't want you caught in the middle of me and the car. Just keep a look out please." I told her firmly not wanting to argue, staring at the car in anger and frustration.

She nodded and walked over to where she could see the school but no one could see her.

I got out the spare keys and unlocked the car, to prevent the security alarm ruining the plan. I looked at Alice to make sure the coast was clear and she nodded at me.

I stared at the car walking round wondering where to start. I decided to begin with the tyres. I got out the knife, I built up all my anger and stabbed all the tyres till they were flat, I took out the bat and smashed out all the windows and lights, I even had enough anger in me to dent a bit of the bodywork with it. Finally I took the knife back and ripped my name into the driver's seat in huge letters so it was clear.

I took a look at my work and I was impressed, I didn't realise I had that much anger or strength in me. I looked towards Alice and she was staring at me wide eyed with her mouth open, in response I simply shrugged. I put a kiss in the centre of the steering wheel in bright pink lipstick.

I took pictures of the car from multiple angles on my phone and sent them to Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie. I picked up the bat and knife and put them into the bag and double checked to see if I left anything. I checked the time and noticed that we had 30 minutes until the end of the lesson. Whilst I was putting the bag onto my shoulder I asked Alice if she wanted to go to the local shop because I was suddenly in the mood for some chocolate. I think she is still in a state of shock because she nodded slowly and her eyes still as wide as saucers. I just laughed at her.

As we were walking, we eventually stated talking about random things until she asked the inevitable question, "How did you do that so fast? You did it in 10 minutes!"

I merely shrugged, "I don't know really. I must have been really pissed off."

"Well however you did it, it was seriously impressive"

I chuckled and blushed, "Thanks."

When we started walking back I got 3 messages off Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie all stating the same thing that they were laughing so hard in lesson, earning strange looks and getting sent out by the teachers. Emmett even earned detention from his teacher. I giggled as I put my phone back into my pocket.

We sat outside on one of the benches in the yard until the bell. We talked about my performance, we saw one of the posters and realised that the whole school was gonna be attending which made it even better, at this we both cracked up laughing realising the benefits of this.

The bell went so we made our way to the back of the stage. I signed in and went to the toilets with Alice to change my clothes and to redo my makeup and hair.

We had to wait about an hour before my turn came around. Some of the acts before me were actually real good but there were a couple that were bad. I made my way to the wings when my name was called, I peeked through the curtain and saw Edward sitting there near the others, but he was closer to Jessica and Lauren. This should be good. I knew I had a smirk on my face as Jack, who was doing the lights, was watching me carefully.

"Last but not least, please, welcome Bella Swan!" The audience cheered.

I just walked up to the microphone, staring straight at Edward. After nodding to the person in charge of the music the song started playing.

Right now, he's probably slow dancing with a bleached-blond tramp,
And she's probably getting frisky
Right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink
'Cause she can't shoot whiskey.
Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool-stick,
Showing her how to shoot a combo
And he don't know...

I dug my key into the side of his
Pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive,
Carved my name into his leather seat
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
Slashed a hole in all four tyres,

Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

Right now, she's probably up singing some
White-trash version of Shania karaoke
Right now, she's probably saying "I'm drunk"
And he's a thinking that he's gonna get lucky
Right now, he's probably dabbing on
Three dollars worth of that bathroom polo
And he don't know...

That I dug my key into the side of his
Pretty little souped up four wheel drive,
Carved my name into his leather seats,
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
Slashed a hole in all four tyres,

Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

I might've saved a little trouble for the next girl,
'Cause the next time that he cheats,
Oh, you know it won't be on me...

No... Not on me.

'Cause I dug my key into the side of his
Pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive,
Carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
Slashed a hole in all 4 tyres...

Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

Oh.. Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats...

Oh, oh

Before he cheats

Ohhh.

As I was singing I kept looking at Edward right in the eye. When I finished the whole audience was silent. I took this as my opportunity.

While having a smug smile on my face I said, "You may want to check your car Edward. You never know what can happen to a pretty new thing like that in an area like this." An element of fake innocence is ringing clear in my voice whilst holding up the spare keys that are dangling from my fingers.

After I finished my little speech, I throw the spare keys at Edward and watch as realisation crossed his face. When he eventually figured it out he ran out the doors to check on his precious baby, with pretty much the whole room on his tail before the teachers could say otherwise. I walked off grinning and laughing with Emmett pulling me into one of his bone crushing hugs before I even saw him coming. I think he realised that I couldn't breathe when Rosalie smacked him on the back of the head.

They all congratulated me, laughing at Edwards face and my wrecking of his car. I, of course, blushed and shrugged in response. They started asking me loads of questions at once and my only answer was,

"Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats."
