Alright! it has taken me a very long time to finished this dang chapter. And! everytime i would be past the hardest part, the world would set out to punish ne by giving my computer viruses! i've written this chapter at least 5 times, never liking the ruslts i was giving. BUUUUT HOPEFULLY THIS WAS THE BEST VERSION(did i spell that right?) YET!

ENOUGH OF MY BLABBING AND OIN WITH THE READING!


"Sorry." I muttered as I bumped into the 5th person tonight in just the half hour I've been here.

I walked through the living room softly shaking my head to the beat of a Katy Perry song.

I started walking back to the keg for my forth cup of the night. I was sort of feeling the effects, but it was only making me a bit clumsier then normal.

"Another?" Andrew, a senior said when I was about 2 feet away.

Rolling my eyes I muttered a shut up but the action was lost when I felt myself start to blush.

"Eh it's cool." He started, and then motioned with his index finger to get closer, "While you only had four I've had about ten."

I stepped back a bit, which made him laugh and say, "Oh don't worry. It takes a lot more then ten cups to get me drunk. Ah all thanks to those secret summer house party's!"

"Okay then." I laughed and as I walked away I heard him yell, "See you later alligator!"

He may not be drunk yet but he sure as heck was tipsy.

The song had now changed to the Black Eyed Peas.

As I made my way through the crowd of underage drinkers…well most of them being underage, I couldn't help but feel somewhat stupid for coming to the party in the first place. I mean sure I knew the people here, but I knew none of them close enough for me to just hang out with. I saw Angela earlier, but she was talking to Ben, who (By the force of knowledge from a certain mind reader) I know she has a really big crush on.

I took a swig of my drink when suddenly a dude comes up to me wearing a toga (how cliché is that) and takes my cup from me. He downs the rest of the beer before I could even let out a cry of annoyance, and then has the nerve to hand back the empty cup into my still extended hand.

When he saw me looking at him, he smiled a very drunken smile and literally yelled, "I just saved your brain cells!" before running off yelling in a totally stereotypic way, "Toga…Toga!"

Okay another reason I don't like parties weirdoes like taking my drinks away!

Why did I have to listen to Edward! I don't even like parties! They make me feel all awkward! I thought as I started walking again.

So I started thinking again, as I stumble through a crowd of disgusting drink stealing, toga wearing, spit swapping people in this pointless party, he's in the deepest parts of some forest hunting some animal. My guesses were either a bear or a mountain lion. The latter having a bigger death chance in my opinion since those were his favorite food choice when it came to hunting.

Not cool, He gets all the fun.

I didn't want any more beer, not that I had anymore, so I started walking towards the kitchen.

Tossing the cup from hand to hand I started thinking about which way was the fastest from Mike's (the parties lovely host…please note the sarcasm) house to mine.

I've only been to Mike's house once, this party being that once, but I was able to find the kitchen pretty quickly, how you might ask…well it certainly doesn't have anything to do with the big whiteboard sign claiming that this door was the entrance to the kitchen that's for sure. Let's move on from my humorous ways of sarcasm. I was a few feet away from the door when suddenly I tripped and feel to my knees.

"Ow" I mumbled slightly disoriented from the fall, but I knew I wasn't tipsy or drunk enough for me to be that unbalanced. My theory was proven right when a pair of neon pink high heels (seriously neon pink… gag me please) stomped right in front of my view, giving me a pretty good idea on who it was who tripped me.

"Oh what a clumsy girl you are Bella!" Lauren yelled laughing as I got up. I tried to push pasted her not wanting to have a confrontation but when she saw me move she pushed me back with a smug cynical smile.

"Where's your boyfriend, Bella?" She said her voice full of fake sweetness.

It was only when Shelby, Kimberly and Jessica gathered around me in a half circle that I realized that Lauren wasn't alone, and yet that didn't surprise me one bit.

"What boyfriend are you talking about Lauren? I didn't know she had one?" Shelby the second nastiest in the group said not missing a beat.

"Oh wait… that's right she doesn't have one. My bad, Bell's I'm sure you can understand. I mean everyone else I know has one. I guess I forgot." She shrugged laughing again.

"I'm sure you forget a lot of things Lauren." I said reaching to pick up a few strands of her blonde hair.

"So where's Edward? Did he finally come to his senses and leave your sorry ass?" She glared not bothering anymore with the fake kindness.

Shrugging I said, "He's away with the family."

"The way it should be." She said still glaring crossing her arms.

"And what's that supposed to mean, Lauren?" I asked my patience for this hooters-to-be trainee wearing thin.

"It means Birdie, that you should learn your place. You don't belong with Edward. He's like so out of your league." Shelby cut in first popping a piece of gum into her mouth then starting to chew on it like a horse.

"Yeah, he just feels sorry for you." Jessica smirked towards Kimberly who took that as her queue to start her stupid attempt at harassing me.

"You aren't and will never be in the same league as him, hell you aren't even pretty enough to be his friend."

"Exactly, so get this into your ugly head and learn that Edward pities you, his friendship towards you means nothing to him. And" She leaned to my ear and then continued in a whisper, "He will never like, much less love you back."

The rest started laughing as I felt my face heat up, not because I was embarrassed, but because I was getting mad.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I said coolly once more trying to get past. Only to again be roughly pushed back.

"Bitch you don't walk away from me." Lauren sneered, walking till she was right in front of me, just inches away.

"Oh the baby's learning" I said my own voice dripping with sarcasm, "She said a whole sentence without the word 'like' in it."

Lauren tried to look intimidating, but failed.

"Back off. He's mine and he actually loves me." She flipped her hair over her shoulder, throwing her head back as she laughed, the posse soon to follow.

Before I could stop myself I bluntly said,

"Oh, he loves you…he's yours. Are you that stupid?"

They all stopped laughing and started glaring in unison; before they could answer I started again,

"You say I'm too ugly to be his friend but then why am I the one who gets rides to and from school. Why am I the one who sits next to him in every class and gets invited to his family's parties and not you? If I'm only friends with him because of his pity towards me then why have we been best friends since kindergarten? You say I'm a loser Lauren, you say I'm ugly, you say I'm a bitch, but I'm not the one dressing up as a stupid whore throwing herself all up against a guy who won't even give you, much less tell you the time of day. Now am I?"

She did an imitation of a gaping fish; the posse was stunned silent as well. With my irritation at its peek, I rolled my eyes and muttered mostly to myself

"I'm so done with this." I walked past here, purposely bumping my shoulder roughly against hers as I past by.

As I pushed the kitchen door open, I heard Lauren yell,

"You may be friends but that's all you'll ever be! Friends!"

"You'll still be a whore." I muttered leaning against the kitchen wall.

"She's wrong you know." I heard a voice softly call out. I tilted my head down and saw Angela on the other side of the kitchen, where I saw another door.

"What do you mean?" I felt my eye brows come down as I stared at Angela.

She smiled coming closer and pointed to the door.

"The whore and her posse. I saw the encounter." she said

I continued to stare not completely following.

"You aren't ugly, and Edward doesn't pity you. It's all the hairspray that's gone to their head that makes them delusional."

I chuckled despite my current mood, "Thanks." I muttered.

"Do you want to hang out with Ben and me?" she asked smiling once more.

I shook my head smiling back, "Thanks, but I'm actually heading home right now."

Or at least now I am.

"Well okay then, see you at school Monday." She said before walking out of the kitchen right next to me.

I took a breath and squared my shoulders walking determinedly towards the other door than the one I had entered through.

I opened the door and shivered as I was met by cold autumn air.

"What do you think?" the voice I would know anywhere asked from behind me. It took me a second to recognize my surroundings. Then I remembered that we were in our tree house. I turned around and saw Edward smiling obviously waiting for an answer.

With a blush making it's way to my cheeks I said,

"Think of what?"

He playfully rolled his eyes muttering loud enough for my ears to catch him saying,

"Such a scatter brain."

I glared and he smirked at my reaction, " I said this could possibly be the funniest thanksgiving ever. I didn't actually think that Emmett would eat all those mash potatoes. He's gonna be in the bathroom all night long throwing it up."

"Oh!" I laughed as the same memory passed through my mind. I nodded my head as I kept laughing. I calmed down after a few minutes, my eyes captured by Edward's brilliant green ones. They held some emotions I couldn't place. I smiled a small smile and turned my head towards the window, cool air loped through brushing against my heated face.

I rubbed my arms to use the fiction to heat my body,

"The sky looks so beautiful tonight." I murmured looking at the dark blue nearly black sky that was dashed with bright stars, the biggest and shiny one being the moon.

I heard Edward get up off the beanbag and make his way towards the window. A warm material was draped over my shoulder and I looked up behind me, Edward was smiling warmly as he looked down at me.

"It really is." He murmured back his eyes never once drifting from mine. My face immediately started warming back up when stepped back and wrapped his arms around me, keeping close to my back

He lowered his head down to right behind my ear ever so softly gliding his nose across my skin, I heard him taking deeps breaths.

I shivered once more, though not out of the cold.

With difficultly I blinked my eyes and thought hard about what it was we were talking about.

"th-the moon is really bright tonight." I said automatically tilting my head to the side and his nose continued its course.

"Mhm." He agreed not stopping.

My eyes momentarily lost focus as his nose was changed for his lips. I lost myself in a stupor that his lips induced. So I wasn't sure when his tongue started lethally at my skin, my eyes tried to close as the pleasure heightened and my knee's threatened to give in. I managed to feel Edwards arms now wrap around my middle, holding up my weight.

Though the stupor started dimming as the pleasure took into a new direction, I let out a feeble cry as his arms tightened around me to where it was almost painful and the lapping at my skin stopped. A sharp pain in my neck nearly knocked me out as I cried out more loudly then before. I could hear Edward drinking, but didn't recognize what he was doing. My heartbeat pounded in my chest and my eyes fluttered close.

I dropped towards the floor, but I didn't hit it.

"Edward! Calm down!" I heard Emmett's yelled over loud savage growls

After several attempts my eyes reluctantly opened, though I wish they hadn't.

Emmett's crouching form had Edward in a headlock, his pale white face marred by a dark red liquid.

Blood. I realized with a start my lazy eyes widening and my hand shooting up to neck.

"Don't touch it just yet." I heard Carlisle's soothing voice reached me. I tried to look towards him, but my eyes stayed locked onto Edward. He was fighting against Emmett, managing to loosen his hold only for a second before Emmett regained it. His eyes where as red as the blood on his mouth and looked thirsty for more. Edward twisted within Emmett somehow managing to deck Emmett right in the face and out of the tree house.

"Edward." Carlisle's voice warned as Edward slowly made his stalk.

"Edward No!" I heard many voices yell all out once, my own being so loud I hurt my own ears.

My eyes snapped open and instantly watered as the next part of the nightmare played behind my eyelids. My body felt hot and clammy and I stayed still, knowing if I already hadn't Edward would wake up if I moved too much.

"What's wrong?" His velvet voice whispered from the other side of the bed. Luckily I was facing away so I didn't give myself away as I tightly closed my eyes and shook my head. My tears felt cool against my face as they trailed down the side of my face.

"Bella?" His voice held no ounce of sleep, so I guessed he must have been wake for a while.

I opened my mouth but someone cut me off.

"Edward, Esme says it's time to go home." Alice's high soprano voice chimed through the French doors as she walked in. Her tone was light but her eyes were troubled as she looked at me.

"But…" Edward trailed off still staring at me in concern.

I attempted to smile; though it ended up in a grimace I'm sure.

"It's okay. She just had a bad dream about you eating her pet bunny." Alice said sitting on the edge of the bed.

Edward looked back at me mouth slack with surprise and guilt.

"You said you forgave me for that. I was only 7!" he said his voice not at all smooth and somewhat pitchy at places.

I shrugged.

With a determined face he whispered, "I will make this up to you." He leaned over and kissed my cheek goodbye before grabbing his clothes and jumping off the balcony. My heartbeat froze as I thought about him getting hurt if he didn't stick the landing.

"He's fine." Alice murmured, tilting her head towards the French doors.

When she was satisfied with whatever she doing she turned back to me.

"Bella." She sighed reprimanding thick in her voice.

I sighed as well; I didn't like Alice being all serious.

It was ungodly
