AN: Hey everyone! First of all HUGE apologies to those who reviewed but didn't receive a teaser! You'll all receive one for the next chapter instead!

This is smaller than the other chapters but felt like the right place to stop ;)

I hope you all enjoy...

Unfortunately I own nothing... Except an experience much like Bella has in this chapter.

"Oh for fuck sake's!" I groaned. Alice and Rose had already gone downstairs, leaving me at the top to 'make my grand entrance as the new, sexy Bella' whilst they got everyone's attention. What I really fucking needed was someone to carry me down so I didn't fall and break my neck in these shoes! I'd already had two glasses of wine which really wasn't helping with my balance. Damn lightweight.

I started to make my way down lifting my dress slightly, not that it helped much, and breathing deeply through my nose to help my nerves, that wasn't helping either.

A couple of steps from the bottom I looked up and noticed that the majority of the room was looking at me. That wasn't the killer part though, they were all slack-jawed and stared at me as if I'd grown two heads. Brilliant! I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off this dress!

Mortified I started to make my way to the kitchen to find the strongest drink possible. There was no backing out now, I couldn't possibly go back upstairs and change, that would only add to my humiliation.

"H-H-Hey Bel-la, um, yeah... um, uh..." I turned to see Newton gesturing to my dress.

"What is it Mike?!" I snapped, taking a large gulp of my newly poured Vodka and tonic.

"You look, um... Just wow!" he stuttered whilst obviously staring at my chest. Creep. "I've never seen you look so-"

"-hot?" A deep voice interjected from behind me. I froze before turning, curious as to who this unfamiliar voice belonged to.

He was a tall, well built man with long blonde hair pulled into a low pony tail. He was genuinely handsome and looked around 30, which seemed to be the theme tonight as I looked around and noticed more people probably over 25 than college students. He looked at me with ice blue eyes and smirked whilst offering me his hand.

"James Hunter, nice to meet you" He said smoothly.

"Bella Swan" I added unimpressed. I was used to this type of guy, try to charm unsuspecting women into their beds. Not going to happen this time Prince Charming.

"Can I get you a drink Bella Swan?" James smirked.
Before I could reply there was an incessant tugging on my arm that I needed to attend to.

"What's up Al?" I asked turning to her and briefly noticing Newton was nowhere to be seen.

"Emmett's here, Rose wants to introduce you now move!" Alice pushed me towards the front door whilst apologising to James for interrupting.

"Bella there you are! I'd like to introduce you to Emmett McCarty" Rose said sweetly whilst gesturing to what's got to be one of the biggest men I've ever seen. He was probably about 6'5 and built like tank, but was also incredibly handsome with short dark hair, bright blue eyes and a set of dimples cute enough to melt butter.

"Nice to meet you Isabella, Rose blabs on about you so much!" Emmett laughed and winked at Rose before he leaned down to kiss me cheek before I replied with an equally charming statement and insisting I not be called my full name.

As the night progressed I'd had that many drinks I couldn't remember the number. I'd talked to more people than I had in my entire life and had more compliments and phone numbers thrown at me than what felt like Megan Fox at that moment.

I was stood in the far corner of Rose's kitchen nibbling on some snacks that we hid back here before the party started, trying to sober up a little, when I felt someone stood too close for comfort.

"Bellllllllllllla" Mike's disturbing voice drew out an inch away from my ear.

"Oh hey Mike," I said, awkwardly trying to move away but stuck between the corner of the work tops and Mike. "You having a good time? Wanna go find Rose, see if she wants to dance?" I asked trying to distract him enough to move away or at least get someone's attention.

"You know what I really wanna do Issy?" He was so close to my face that I felt his alcohol infused breath spread across my face making me want to hurl. "I want you to come home with me."

What the fuck?

"Mike, you know thats not going to happen, we're just buddies! Now if you'll excuse me I think I hear Alice calling me." I said harshly, trying to push him away. That didn't work though and I felt him push me back hard against the corner of the work tops again.

"No ones calling you Bella and you know we're not just buddies. You wore that dress tonight to tease me, to make me beg to take you home. But I'm not going to, you're coming home with me and that's the end of it." He growled.

"What the fuck Mike! Are you delusional?! I'm not going anywhere with you, you creep! Now move or-" I shouted, amazed yet so pissed that no one in the room has even realised what is going on.

"-shut the fuck up you little slut!" He growled slamming his fists either side of me on the work tops. Fear ripped through me and I screwed my eyes shut.

"I believe the lady told you she wasn't going anywhere with you and to move. I suggest you listen to her. Now." The anger in the voice was incredibly apparent but it didn't hide the sexiness and perfection laced within.

WTF IS BELLA WEARING?!

Anyone up for an Edward POV? It would be the chapter after the next one...

Reviews receive a teaser! (2 if you didn't get one recently!)
