Bella POV

We all went into the garage and piled into Carlisle's black Mercedes. We looked hot and we were in a super hot car. Well wherever we're going we're going to own the place.

We were driving down the road, too fast of course, with Alice chattering away in the front seat. I sat in the back trying to sort out my thoughts. What was I thinking back at the house? I had never thought of anyone that way before not even Edward. I mean Edward was definitely good looking but I never thought of him as hot. When describing Edward I would use the words handsome, good looking, boyishly cute, or even perfect but I have never thought of him as hot or sexy. I don't get it. Why was I thinking of Jasper like that not to mention in front of Alice? The fact that I got caught got me blushing again because I mean really how embarrassing is that? I heard Alice giggle and turned from the window to look at her. She was looking at me with a small smile on her face and knowing look in her eyes. My blush deepened as I looked up at the rearview mirror and saw Jasper with that sexy smirk on his face. Damn that man could make me do anything with that smirk if I wasn't with Edward and he wasn't with Alice I would definitely be on top of that…oh my god what is wrong with me?

"You okay back there darlin'? You seem a little…flustered." Jasper asked stifling a chuckle. Alice giggled and looked back at me. I turned away blushing.

"Um…yeah…I'm uh…I'm fine!" I stuttered. They both laughed but left me alone…for now at least.

About 20 minutes later we pulled up in front a big building with a huge black sign out front that said CLUB NEON in huge yellow letters. Oh no, what has Alice done now. I definitely would not have let her talk me into this if I would've known we were going to a club. I don't belong here especially since Alice and Jasper are together I'll be the girl you see in the movies sitting at the bar by herself.

"No Bella absolutely not!" Alice stated firmly, "you're going to come inside with us, dance, drink, and have fun! I will not stand for you sitting at the bar the whole time! No! I won't allow it! So let's go!" she grabbed my hand and strode right to the door of the club. Cutting everyone that was standing and waiting in line. When they started to complain she turned around and flashed them a dazzling smile.

"I'm sorry!" she told them with her big puppy dog eyes. They all melted and were putty in her hands. Everyone smiled back at her with a chorus of 'it's okay' and 'go ahead' she smiled at them again.

"Thank you!" she called and she walked up to the bouncer and worked her magic on him and got us all in quickly. As we stepped inside I took in my surroundings. The walls were black with neon colored paint splattered all over them. The black lights made everything shine brightly. There were people packed closely on the dance floor and the music was blaring. I looked over at the bar and there were only a few people there so that's where I headed first. As I turned to walk to the bar Alice grabbed my arm.

"Bella," she whined, "you can't spend the whole night at the bar you have to dance with me."

"Alice," I sighed, "if I'm gonna be here and dance with you I am definitely gonna need a drink so I'll be right back I promise." I told her sincerely. She reluctantly let go of my arm and followed me to the bar. I ordered a daquiri and paid the bartender when I heard Alice order some straight vodka.

"Alice why are you going to waste money on something you can't even drink?" I whispered. She looked at me questioningly.

"No one told you?" she asked.

"Um…told me what?" I was really confused.

"Well," she whispered leaning towards me, "even though we are vampires we can still drink. It has to be really strong like vodka or tequila and it takes a lot to get us drunk but we can still stomach it." She explained. Well that's good to know I guess. What Alice didn't know was that when they left me I used to go to clubs sometimes so she wasn't the only one that could stomach a large amount of alcohol. She would definitely be surprised if she found out about everything that happened when they left me. It's not a time I like to think about. A new side of me that I never knew I had made an appearance. I don't know how to best describe it even though I experienced it first hand. The only way I can think of to say it is that I was like Rosalie in a way. I was a total badass. If you messed with me you would regret it because I would take all the pain and anger I was feeling and direct it towards you. It wasn't pretty at all. I was a total bitch but I was a sexy one. All the men wanted me and all the women were jealous of me. Everyone knew better than to mess with me because I had a mean right hook. In some ways I missed those days. I felt confident and strong knowing I could protect myself. On the other hand, I was always so full of pain and anger that never seemed to go away. When I wasn't out at the club or beating up some pervert I didn't know what to do with myself. The pain would be too much to handle and I would lock myself in my room for days. Hmmm. Now I have Edward back and there isn't any more pain or anger. Maybe I could go back to the sexy badass I used to be. I'm sure the family would get a kick out of seeing me the way I was. I laughed just thinking about how the family would react, especially Rosalie. Wow I would love to see her face if I gave her a taste of her own medicine. Just imagining her reaction made me laugh.

"Bella are you okay? Should I be worried?" Alice asked me.

"What? Alice what are you talking about?" What is she talking about? I'm confused…again.

"Well first of all you're over there laughing at nothing. And second I just got this vision of you telling off Rosalie. What is that about? Since when do you stand up to people" she demanded crossing her arms. She may be small but man she can be scary.

Just then one of my favorite songs came on 'Drop it low' by Ester Dean and Chris Brown. I grabbed Alice's wrist and pulled her towards the dance floor.

"C'mon Alice! Didn't you say we weren't gonna spend tonight at the bar. Let's dance I love this song." She stayed seated on the bar stool and just stared at me with a look on her face that said are-you-serious? I laughed at her expression and pulled on her wrist again. She slowly rose from her chair still not sure if she should believe me.

"Seriously Alice c'mon let's dance!" I flashed her a smile to let her know I was serious. She immediately brightened detecting my sincerity.

"Okay!" she said happily, "let's go!" she started towards the dance floor but stopped suddenly. "Wait! We almost forgot about Jasper!" she turned back towards the bar and motioned for Jasper to come with us. He downed the rest of his drink and strode over to us.

"Yes Alice?" he said.

"C'mon Jasper you're dancing with us!" she didn't give him time to protest. She just grabbed our arms and towed us onto the dance floor. We made our way right to the middle of the dance floor where there was a small opening. Alice pulled Jasper and I beside her with him in the middle and me on his other side. I now I should've been nervous dancing with Jasper after what had happened but I had made a decision. The old Bella was coming back. The one nobody messed with…the badass.

We continued dancing for a few songs when I excused myself to go get another drink. I asked the bartender for some vodka and gave him his money. I turned around and leaned against the bar watching my friends. To my surprise they weren't dancing together. They were near each other but they weren't dancing they way you always see couples dance together. I would have to ask Alice what that was all about but now that I think about it they aren't really as close as they were when I first met them. What could have happened to them?

My thoughts were interrupted when a tall man stumbled up to me. He was wearing a blue shirt and jeans with holes in the knees. By the way he was walking you could tell that he had a bit too much to drink already. He kept walking towards me and all I could think was…great here we go again. I pointedly ignored him staring in the opposite direction. Out of the corner of my eye I saw him stop a few feet away and check me out. Apparently he liked what he saw because he got a little smirk on his face, squared his shoulders, and closed the distance between us. Well it looks like badass Bella is making her appearance sooner rather than later.

"Hey there sexy," he slurred, "you're looking good tonight. That dress makes you look hot and you have a mighty fine ass."

"Well," I said looking bored, "women with asses like mine don't go for boys with faces like yours."

"Oh feisty I like em feisty! The feisty ones are always the best in the bedroom. Why don't we get outta here and you can show me how good you are." As he said this he put his hand on my upper thigh. I automatically tensed.

"That's one experience you won't be getting…not with me at least. Now if you know what's good for you I suggest you move your hand if you plan on keeping it and turn your sorry ass around and walk away" I threatened.

"Oh c'mon baby don't be like that. You don't have to act all tough I won't tell anyone. Let's go…nobody has to know. It could be our little secret." As he said the last part he leaned in right next to my ear and started moving his hand up my thigh. He started trailing his other hand up my side towards my chest. I grabbed his arm and twisted it behind his back as I slammed his face onto the bar.

"Now you listen up asshole and you listen good. Touch me again and you will regret it I warned you once and I don't give second chances. So take your pathetic little ass turn it around and walk away before I kick it into next week." I tightened my grip on his arm expressing to him just how serious I was. I let his arm go and gave him a chance to walk away. Instead he turned to me with a pissed off expression.

"You little bitch!" he growled and raised his arm about to slap me in the face. Before he could I pulled my right arm back and snapped it forward with as much force as I could. It connected with his nose with a sickening crack and the blood started flowing steadily down his face as he fell backwards on his ass.

"Like I said asshole I don't give second chances!" I turned on my heel and strode back to where Jasper and Alice stood stunned having witnessed the entire exchange. Then a thought occurred to me. They are vampires and that asshole is laying on the floor bleeding. Maybe I should've thought that one through a little better.

"Um guys we can leave if you need to. I didn't think at the time but if the blood is bothering you we can go." I said apologetically.

"We're fine." Alice stated, "but I think it is best we leave because you have a lot of explaining to do Isabella!" she finished firmly. I just shrugged because I knew it was coming. They would've found out sooner or later about how badass I can be. Alice led the way to the door and we walked to the car in silence. We all piled in and Alice drove this time. I sat in the back seat thinking about the events that had occurred that night. I stretched my hand and found that it hurt a little and it was red. Well I did break the guys nose what did I expect. As the minutes passed the pain in my hand increased and I winced as I stretched it out.

"Here darlin," Jasper said turning to face me he held out his hand, "let me take a look." I held out my hand and he took it gently. "It's not broken but you did hurt it a little." He placed his hand tenderly over my sore knuckles and it felt ten times better than ice. I sighed as the pain already started to ease and he smiled gently at me.

"That feels amazing." I told him, "better than ice." He chuckled.

"Just glad I could help darlin." He told me. I sat with my hand in his for the whole ride home. When we pulled in the garage Alice immediately pulled me into the house and headed straight for her room. I gave Jasper an apologetic look and let Alice drag me upstairs.

"Now," she said sternly sitting me down on the bed, "start talking."
