BPOV
I must have been unconscious for only a few minutes, because when I woke up, no one had moved from where they stood. My eyelids fluttered open to see Jasper's face full of shock, while Alice was clueless to our past. I sighed and got up. I pretended I hadn't seen him, but the pixie-like girl did not let me forget that I had fainted. I knew her name was Alice. I saw it on the nameplate outside our door. Alice fitted her; she was so small, almost like a fairy.
"Are you okay?" She asked her voice shaking with worry. I nodded and started to unpack. Jasper just stood in the doorway like an idiot. "Okay, if you say so." She said like she didn't believe me. "I'm Alice, by the way, and this is my boyfriend Jasper." She smiled widely, proud that her boyfriend was amazingly good looking. The bronze-haired guy stood there staring at Jasper, his face full of confusion. I had to admit, he was amazing guy I had ever seen. His green eyes held my gaze every time I looked into them, so I had to look away.
Then my brain finally registered what she had said. This is my boyfriend. My hands clenched into fists and I rocked back on my heels. I bit my lips down so hard to keep myself from gasping that my bottom lip started to bleed.
Shit I muttered in my head. The blood tasted like iron and salt and the feeling made me nauseated. I ran to the bathroom in the back of the dorm room and emptied the contents of my stomach, which wasn't much.
I walked out back into the main/bedroom area. They were all staring at me with wide eyes. I looked down at my feet when I heard the bronze-haired guy, whose name I still didn't know asked, "Are you sure you are alright? I mean, you just passed out and threw up, that doesn't seem alright to me." I sighed angrily and glared at him, carefully avoiding looking at Jasper. My heart just couldn't handle it.
"What's your name, anyway?" I asked him. He smiled the smile that I had seen so many times before, on so many different people. It way the players smile. Every time a player wanted me they would always give me that smile.
After a while I grew careful to avoid it, until I met Mike. I had been too occupied by looking into his eyes, which grew cold after a while, that I hadn't noticed that he had had that smile on his evil face also.
"Edward. Edward Cullen." I laughed as he purred his name in what was supposed to be a sexy way. I had been played by that trick once or twice before, even by Mike. His face turned confused and his eyebrows pulled together. I raised my eyebrows, challenging him and he looked down at his shoes.
Then suddenly, almost like an electronic shock, a sudden wave of anger flashed though me. I was seriously pissed off. Two of my ex-boyfriends were in the room and so was some playboy who was trying to hit on me. Ha! I glared at Edward and his eyebrows pulled together once again, but I couldn't bring myself to glare at Jasper. I had always loved him, even when he had left me. I couldn't blame him. I wasn't what any person would call pretty; I was absolutely ordinary and plain. I wasn't smart or strong. I was just plain.
"Who is this?" Alice said gesturing toward Mike as a smile crept onto his face. I scowled and opened my mouth to say he was nobody, but of course the world was against me and Mike spoke first.
"I'm Mike, her boyfriend." He put emphases on the last word a little too much, letting him know that I was his—which I wasn't—and as I opened my mouth to protest, I couldn't. I looked into Jasper's eyes and saw jealousy, but I must have been mistaken. He had dumped me. He didn't want me. I tried to convince myself of this, but the look in his eye was just too strong. I couldn't see anything else but pure jealousy.
I smiled internally at this and went along with Mike's little game. I nodded in agreement to his statement, and Jasper's jaw clenched along with Edward's. Alice didn't notice this as her smile widened.
I wondered if Jasper had told her about me, and if he had, did she know that it was me. She surely didn't, unless she was a saint. If I had known that I was going to be sharing a room my boyfriend's ex, I would have been extremely angry.

I woke up to a bright light, making the back of my lids red. I yawned, not remembering a thing that had happened that afternoon. Then it all hit my like a rock.
Jasper had left without saying a word me, and so had his friend Edward. Alice and I had talked all night, well, after Mike had left. I couldn't have asked him to me. I mean I was pretending to be his girlfriend. What kind of girlfriend didn't want her boyfriend around?
When Alice and I talked it seemed like we had known each other for years. She told me secrets, even though she didn't even know my last name.
Then the atmosphere hadn't gotten tense after she told me who the first person she slept with. She asked me whom I had lost my virginity to, and I looked down. I dreamed about that night every time I closed my lids.
Flashback
I lied in bed with Jasper and then suddenly he started to kiss me. We were at his house, and his parents weren't home. He had always respected me and we never went very far, but that night I let him.
He unbuttoned my blouse and kissed my stomach as he rubbed the small of my back. I pulled his lips back up to mine and kissed him more passionately than I ever had. He responded with the same amount of eagerness.
I ripped off his shirt and stared at his chest for a moment, taking it all in. I thought about what I was about to do, and smiled, knowing it was the right decision. He unhooked my bra with ease and stared at my chest for a moment. I felt his heart beat faster as my hand pushed against his chest, but not to push him off. Then I grabbed his shoulder and pulled him closer. I kissed him again and his tongue was suddenly on my bottom lip, asking for access. I let him.
Then I unbuttoned his pants and slid them off and did the same with mine, but out lips kept in motion. That night I had lost my virginity to a man I thought I would stay with forever.
End Flashback
I was pulled back into the present when Alice screamed. I jumped and noticed her expression. It had been a scream of pleasure. Her face was beaming as she ran toward me from the kitchen area of out room.
"Today is the first day!" She screamed and I put my hand up to my ear, indicating she was just a bit too loud.
"Sorry." She muttered as she turned to get ready. I did the same.
I threw on one of my really cute outfits. I put on a yellow halter and some skinny jeans, along with some yellow flats. I sighed as I looked at myself in the full-length mirror that hung from my closet. I looked completely ugly, even in my cute outfit. I sighed, knowing that it wasn't going to get much better, so I gave up, grabbed my bag, and headed to the door with Alice right by my side.
Jasper Hale
I walked into first period with Edward. A girl was clinging to him, as always. And, of course, she was wearing really slutty clothes. They had kept me up all night, with all of the noise they were making. It was the most disgusting thing I had ever heard. Thank god out dorm had two bedrooms.
All night my thoughts had been on Bella. She had been as beautiful as ever, and I couldn't help but be mad when she said she dating Mike Newton. He had been one of my best friends in high school, and said that I should have dumped Bella because she was such a nerd. He just wanted her from himself, and I had no idea.
I also remembered the night. The night our relationship was brought to the next level. I never knew I could feel so good. She was the most beautiful girl in the world. If only she knew the reason I had broken up with her—
Edward broke up my thoughts when he tapped me on my shoulder and pointed in the direction of the front of the classroom. We were sitting down now, and I almost fell out of my seat when I saw Bella. She looked amazing and I couldn't help but picture how her body was bare that night. I thrust the thought from my mind and focused on Alice, the girl I was actually with.
She looked beautiful also. She had on a blue striped shirt and some light jeans. I smiled at her as she rolled her eyes at Edward. I laughed and Edward didn't even notice.
It annoyed us both how he treated woman like dirt. They would last a week at them most. All of the girls knew this, yet they kept falling under his spell. Edward had been my best friend ever since I came to Oxford. He was really nice and a great listener, to me at least. He seemed different this year though, and now that we shared a room I noticed it more and more.
I hadn't told Edward about Bella, and I was glad he hadn't known yesterday. I would have been dead for sure. Edward was not the one to keep secrets, but I loved him anyway. He was a great friend when you needed him to be, but the worst boyfriend a girl could have. Half the time he didn't even know the girl's name.
Bella Swan
I didn't even notice that I was sitting right next to Jasper until I looked to my left and jumped, finding him deep in thought. I sighed and focused on Alice, who was on my right. I wondered if she minded not sitting by her boyfriend. Mike wasn't in this class, thank god. I couldn't deal with him right now.
Then someone I thought I would never see again walked in to the room…
Kyle Harpman.
He had been my best friend all through the first year and a half of high school, but then he moved away. He smiled when he saw me and ran over.
"Hey, Bella, I haven't seen you in forever." He breathed. I smiled up at him, it was hard not to. He had to be the nicest guy I had ever met. You couldn't help but like him.
"Hey Kyle, how are you?" I asked my voice shaky.
He smiled again and looked at Jasper and me sitting together, "I'm fine. So you guys are still dating, are you?"
Everything seemed to happen very fast from then on. Alice's head flashed to me, her eyes wide with shock. Edward had broke away from kissing the girl he was with, and his mouth was gaping open.
I swallowed as I turned to look into Alice's eyes.
What was I going to say?
