Anyways, on with the story.

Currently listening to: Dusseldorf – Regina Spektor

"You like me?" I asked. It couldn't be true. Edward didn't like me. Not as more than a friend, not even as much as I wish he did. We were just friends, that was it.

I was still waiting for Edward to answer, but he didn't. He stared at me with fire in his eyes and walked away. Just like that. What had I done now?

Alice and Jasper were right next to me before I could even breathe.

"Bella, don't worry, it will be okay." Alice told me.

"Yeah, Bells. Just ignore him," Jasper soothed me as he put a hand on my shoulder, and I instantly relaxed. Jasper always did that to me, for some reason. His father called it charisma, but Jasper always got people calmed down.

I didn't realize I was crying until Alice handed me a tissue. Why did it hurt so much? He just walked away! No big deal! But, unfortunately, my heart did take it was a big deal. Stupid heart, I thought. Edward was my best friend. I shouldn't care if he doesn't like me as more than a friend. But did I care? What if I did? I shook my head at the thought. I couldn't.

I wiped away the tears swelling up in my eyes. I felt my eyes still red, and my lips swollen, but I headed to help Rosalie. I wouldn't ruin her party.

"Hey, Rose." I greeted her as she walked across the backyard.

"Oh, hey, Bella. Where's Edward?" Of all things, she just had to ask that.

"I don't know," I said quietly.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Rosalie's eyes showed confusion, "You two are inseparable."

Oh, thanks, Rose. That helps. "He…" I started, but ended it with a sigh.

"Aw, what's wrong, Bells?" Rosalie held my shaking hand. The unwanted tears ran down my cheeks, ignoring my urge to stop them.

"I don't know, exactly. I mean, Mike said Edward liked me…" I started, but Rosalie put a hand on my mouth.

"Can you hold that thought? I have to find Emmett," Rosalie was out of my sight, not even waiting for my answer.

"Bella?" A very familiar voice said from behind me. I could recognize that voice anywhere. So now he's talking to me! (I was originally going to leave it there, but I have so much more to write)

"What?" I answered coldly, finding myself glaring daggers at Edward.

"Aw, Bells. You know I didn't mean to hurt you. I'd never hurt you." He lifted his hand to touch my wet cheek.

"Don't touch me." I growled as I moved my face away.

"Bella, I'm sorry. I really am. I- I didn't know what to do." He apologized.

"And walking away was the answer." I grumbled.

"No. It wasn't. I'm a jerk, I know."

"You're not a jerk." I mumbled, now that Edward's mesmerizing eyes defeated me, again. We couldn't be mad at each other for long. I took his hand in mine.

"Thanks, Bella." He said.

I pulled her into a hug and she wrapped her arms around me. How I wished I could stay there forever. "I love you." I whispered very low so I knew she wouldn't hear me. Although I wish I had the courage to tell her. No, it wasn't about courage. I had fear. Fear of losing her, losing her smile, losing her laugh, losing her eyes, but most of all, losing her touch.

I shook the thought away and kissed her forehead, without thinking.

Bella looked up at me and smiled, "What was that?"

"It's called a kiss, Bells." I chuckled.

"For what?" she asked.

Instead of answering her 'for what?' I decided to answer instead 'for who?'

"For you." I said and put my hand on her waist. "Would you dance with me?"

She giggled, "Sure." She took my hand and led me to the dance floor.

I pulled her back against me and said, "No. Here."

"What? Dance here?"

"Yep."

"Edward, there's no one here, and no music!"

"I know." I grinned and started humming the lullaby I'd written for Bella when we were twelve.

"That's beautiful. What song is that?" Bella asked.

"Your lullaby."

"My– what?" She seemed confused.

"I wrote it…for you. When we were younger." I looked at the ground and felt my cheeks burn.

Her arms wrapped around my waist and she kissed my cheek. "Thank you so much, Edward."

At the sound of her lips saying my name, I knew I couldn't handle it anymore. I needed to tell her I loved her, to kiss her. I leaned in to crush my lips to hers. When I was only inches away, someone interrupted.

"Edward! Bella!" The voice I heard everyday said.

"What do you want, Emmett?" I almost growled. Perfect timing, Emmett, I thought, as always.

"You need to find Alice." Emmett said rather quickly.

"What? What happened?" Bella asked.

"Newton." Emmett said through his teeth, "That idiot decided to bring beer and ruin Rose's party."

"And what does this have to do with Alice?" I asked.

"We last saw her talking to Newton and his friends, and now we can't find her."

That hit a nerve. The idiot of Mike Newton was going to pay for this.

¨Where's Jasper?" Bella asked. Yes, Jasper should know where Alice is, I thought.

"With Rosalie," Emmett answered. "Their parents wanted to see them." Great, just great.

"Don't worry, Em. We'll look for Alice, right, Edward?" Bella said and I nodded.

"Thanks. Just one thing; if you see Jasper, don't tell him. You know how he gets when it comes to Alice." Although I wasn't completely happy with not telling Jasper, I couldn't help but agree.

After Emmett had gone back with Rosalie, Bella and I looked everywhere for Alice, but in the end it was useless.

We also needed to hide from Jasper. If he found out, he'd go nuts.

"Edward, look!" Bella whispered. I turned around and saw Jasper clearly looking for something, or in this case, someone.

"Uh-oh."

"I know. If he finds Alice and she is doing something, well, er– bad, you know he'll get hurt." Bella said.

"Let's follow him." I didn't know if that was going to work, but we had to try.

Where the hell was Alice? I wanted to give her the necklace I'd bought for her. She told me she'd be right where I left her. Rosalie said to Emmett something was wrong, but refused to tell me. What if something happened to Alice? I thought. No, she was safe…hopefully.

So she definitely wasn't in the main dance floor, but where, then? I needed to look for her, and so I did.

I suddenly heard noises coming from then backyard, making me follow them.

When I turned to look at the near bench, I saw her.

My breathing stopped, my heart did, too. I couldn't talk, I couldn't move. There she was, the love of my life crushing her lips and tongue into someone else's. Tyler's to be exact.

His hands were all over Alice. His hands were under her shirt. I wanted to punch him in the face, but my body still didn't react.

"Oh, Jasper." Alice moaned as she kept kissing Tyler. Jasper? Tyler was smiling.

She was calling me, I would answer. "What?" I gasped out, though it sounded more like a growl.

Their lips were separated and Tyler looked my way, grinning.

"Hey, Jazz." Tyler smirked my name.

"Wait, what?" Alice saw me, and her eyes were wide open. She then looked at Tyler and slapped him.

Suddenly, someone gasped from behind the trees and Edward and Bella came into view.

"Oh, Alice!" Bella pushed Tyler away from Alice. I guessed Alice was a bit drunk.

She could walk in a straight line as she walked to me, so she was conscious. Her green eyes were flooded in tears.

"Jasper! I'm so sorry, I–,"

"Save it, Alice. I don't want to hear it." I said and I turned around leaving her behind with every step I took. The one who had stolen my heart stayed behind me. I didn't look back. And the worst thing was, that one didn't give my heart back.

I know this is sad! I'm sorry, but that's how the story goes. Anyways, please tell me what you think of it. And any ideas are welcomed. Review, please! And again, I'm sorry about the sad chapter. It made me cry so much while I wrote it. But, it'll get better, I swear.

-Alice.
