Sorry its been forever since I updated!! Thanks for all the wonderful reviews!

The days passed by and suddenly it was Friday. All through the day, Alice kept chattering about her plans for the party and about how excited she was. All I had to do was nod and said "mm-hmm," wherever it was necessary.

After school we stopped by at my house to pick up my dress and shoes. Charlie already knew about the party, but I still left a note, telling him that I'd be staying over at Alice's house for the night. Mom was out of town for the weekend, so Charlie would be left to manage dinner for himself. I packed a bag quickly, with my night clothes and toothbrush.

I sat down in Alice's car, and we got to her house in 5 minutes. After eating a quick snack, we went upstairs to Alice's room. She handed me a towel. "Have a shower," she said, and then settled down on the bed with a magazine. I took a quick shower, washing my hair. I changed into an old t-shirt and sweats that I had left at Alice's house once.

When I was done we exchanged places. She went to the bathroom to have a shower while I read Wuthering Heights as I waited for her to come out. She was finished quickly, and soon I was sitting on a chair in front of a mirror. She blow-dried my hair till it was straight and then started curling it, so that when she was done, my hair cascaded down my back in gentle curls.

Then Alice clipped my hair back and started on my makeup. I had been through this so many times; I didn't even bother to complain. She applied a thin layer of foundation first, and then light green eye shadow so that it was just visible. After that she put eyeliner and mascara, and then finished it off with a light layer of shimmering lip gloss.

In the end, I looked pretty. I never failed to be amazed at Alice's work. She turned me from someone who looked plain to someone who looked pretty.

I went to the bathroom and slid my dress over my head, careful not to mess up the hair or the makeup. I admired myself in the mirror for a couple of seconds, and then went back outside. Alice had already finished her makeup and was waiting for the bathroom. She changed into her dress too, and looked stunning, as usual.

We put on our jewelry and I slipped on my silver flats. Then, smiling at each other we went downstairs to await our first guest.

The doorbell rang as soon as we finished laying out the drinks and Alice skipped to open it. It was Jasper and Edward.

Alice groaned. "You guys are always the first ones here," she pouted.

Edward walked past her towards me. "You look good, Bella," he complimented, his eyes appraising as they raked over me.

"Thanks," I said. "You do too."

Edward was wearing dark jeans and a plain white button up shirt. Alice joined in. "These are the jeans I got you, right?" She asked. "So that your wardrobe would have some improvement?"

He nodded. "Well," Alice continued. "They look good on you."

The doorbell rang again. This time it was Emmett. "You look pretty," he told me when he came inside.

"Um, thanks," I replied. More people started coming. Rosalie came alone, looking stunning in a deep purple knee length dress.

I sat in a corner with my friend Angela and her boyfriend Ben. We were laughing at some of the couples dancing, who didn't look like they knew how to dance at all.

Edward was dancing with Alice and Jasper with Rosalie. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Emmett approaching me.

"Emmett!" I said happily. "Why don't you join us?"

Emmett said down and looked like he was trying to say something. "Bella," he said, smiling up at me. "Let's dance."

I bit my lip. "Emmett, you know I can't dance. Sorry."

He smiled again, but I could tell that he was a little hurt. He got up without saying anything and went back to where he was sitting before, dejected.

The song ended, and Rosalie broke away from Jasper, walking up to Edward who was coming in this direction.

"Want to dance, Edward?" She asked.

"What? Oh yeah, one second," he replied, but then walked over to me and sat down. "Ok, Bella, enough. Time to go dance."

"Um, Edward? Breaking news- I can't dance." I replied.

"Don't be silly." He got up and pulled me by the hand to the dance floor. We danced together for one song, and then we went and sat down in the corner. We were talking about school when I noticed Emmett and Rosalie sitting together at the drinks counter. There were no alcoholic drinks of course, only mocktails and soft drinks.

"Edward," I said, tapping his arm lightly. "Look over there." I pointed at them.

EmPOV

I sat down at the drinks counter and said to the man behind it. "1 Coke. On the rocks." My face was quite serious, but I could see the man threatening to burst out laughing. I looked away from him.

I was hurt. Bella had rejected me, only to go dance with Edward after that. I downed my coke in one gulp and took a refill. Then I saw someone sit next to me.

"What's wrong, Emmett?" Rosalie asked kindly. Rosalie had always been nice to me.

"Sometimes I wish… That there was someone special for me in the world. Who has eyes only for me, and for whom I would give the whole world to. Like Edward and Bella," I sighed, gesturing to where they sat, wrapped up in their own world.

"Me too," She replied softly. I looked at her. Her eyes were filled with some emotion I couldn't understand, but whatever it was, it drew me closer to her. I leaned down and touched my lips to hers.

BPOV

I stared wide eyed at the scene in front of me. Emmett was kissing Rosalie. I could practically feel the shock radiating off Edward beside me. We were joined by Alice and Jasper who were equally surprised to see Emmett and Rosalie together.

"I can't believe this," Jasper said.

"I can," Alice cried out. "They make such a perfect couple!" She walked over to them and broke up their kiss, congratulating Rosalie and then Emmett.

I raised an eyebrow at Edward who shrugged in response. Together, we went to talk to Emmett and Rosalie.

After I congratulated them, which Rosalie thankfully accepted with a smile, I went outside to sit on Alice's balcony. I was soon joined by Edward, and then the rest of the group.

"Oh, by the way, Bella," Rosalie started. I braced myself for whatever insult she was going to hurl at me. "You look really pretty tonight."

To say I was surprised would be an understatement. I was shocked. "Th-thanks Rosalie," I smiled back.

"You can call me Rose," she grinned in return.

I smiled inwardly. Looks like Rosalie was starting to warm up to me.

Okay, so I'm sure you weren't expecting that twist in the story. Anyway, review!!
