Alice's P.O.V

Bella pecked Jacob softly on the lips before resuming her attention towards me. Why was she with him? Didn't she love Edward? I smiled at her, but she didn't return one for me. I took her fragile hand and cautiously brought her under the tree decorated with white sparkling lights.

"Bella …" I began. "… What happened to you?" She looked at me dumbfounded.

"What do you mean what happened to me?" Is she really asking me this question? I tried cradling her hands in-between mine but she ripped her clammy hands away from mine before I could try to comfort her.

"Edward may not admit it Bella, but he's miserable without you. Why are you wasting your time with that mutt when you could come with me and get Edward back?" I saw that tears were now flowing out the sides of her eyes. I never thought I could be the cause of her tears.

"Look Alice, I know I may be in unstable stage without Edward right now, but I have to learn how to live without him okay? I can't always be the one begging for his lips to rub against mine. Jacob makes me happy, and he is NOT a mutt!" Bella's stern voice had shocked me. I never have seen Bella like this so … so …. Mad.

"Alice I think you should leave." Those words had shaken me. If I had a heart, at this moment … it would break. I nodded and then walked away. I sobbed a tearless cry. Although, I knew my heart wouldn't be the only broken if possible. The heart that would break even more than mine, the person who would cry even more than me, the life that probably will end once I tell him is … Edward.
