I WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED I ONLY GOT TWO REVIEWS LAST CHAPTER (THOUGH I THINK SOME OF IT MAY BE DO TO THE TITLE CHANGE!)

ANYWAYS! I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!


Steams of light cascaded into the room. I heard the soft whisper of a velvety voice angrily arguing with someone. I was instantly hit with a blaring headache and nasua.

What the hell happened last night?

I opened my eyes, adjusting to the obnoxious light that only worsened my headache. I noticed I wasn't in my room. Actually, I had no clue where I was.

One night stand. My inner voice sang to me.

Sure, I had been out of control lately, but I don't think I would go as far as sleeping with a complete stranger.

Think about this. You have no clue what happened last night, you clearly have a hangover, and you're in some guy's bedroom. You do the math.

I groaned as I flopped over, burying my head into the royal blue pillow.

My sensitive ears picked up the clicking of an opening door. I decided to pretend I was sleeping, not ready to face my mystery man.

"Bella?" I shot straight up at the recognition of the voice.

Edward.

"Edward!" I screeched. Just great. I slept with Edward.

"How are you feeling?" He kindly questioned.

"Confused.' He chuckled. Of course he finds this funny. It probably wasn't the first time he was having this conversation.

"Well, five beers and a cat fight can cause someone to lose their memory." He chuckled again.

"Edward," I asked hesitantly, unsure If I actually wanted an answer, "what happened last night?" I kept my eyes glued to my hands, afraid to meet his wonderful gaze.

"Well, you had a few drinks, got a little out of control, fought a girl, then passed out." I wasn't sure if I should be relieved or not.

"How did I end up in your bed?" The words came out before I could even stop them. I made the mistake to look at him. His beautiful face was fallen and it hurt to see him so distressed.

"After you passed out I decided to take you back here, rather then your house." Flashes of last night passed through my mind. I was screaming at Edward.

"Even after I said all those awful things to you?" I whispered. This time, I kept my eyes locked on his.

It was weird. Edward was like me in a way. Two different people in one body. One side of him was tender, caring, sweet, loving. The other side was a prick who used girls for his own pleasure. I had always been one person, but now, I was split in two.

The problem was that his good side was coming out as my devil side decided to make a guest appearance.

Oh boo freakidy hoo!! How much fun did we have last night? Sure, there's a lot we don't remember, but I do remember all the hot guys.

I couldn't help but smirk.

"Yeah. You were drunk, you honestly had no clue what was going on. It happens to all of us." He shrugged as he flashed me his dazzling smirk.

Screw hot guys! I want Edward!

What for one moment makes you think he changed. He is using the oldest trick in the book! The gentleman card! He is going to earn you trust, take your virginity, and never look back.

Something inside me snapped as realization hit me.

Why would he ever want me. I was just some piece of ass. I was the most interesting game he's ever had. I'm nothing more then a ploy to him.

"Yeah, well, whatever." I let my she-devil take over as anger surged my body out of his bed and storming down to Alice's room.

Of course she was already wide awake.

"How's the hangover." I was grateful Alice knew enough to keep her voice a soft whisper.

"Awful." I threw myself onto her purple bed, causing Alice to chuckle. I felt the bed shift as Alice sat next to me.

"So....," I looked at Alice who was twiddling with her thumbs, "how's operation Destroy Edward going?" I let out a bark of dark laughter.

"It sounds like we have him just where we want him." I was shocked that I was answered with silence.

"Bella?" Alice asked hesitantly. "Do you think we're taking this to far? I mean, I've really noticed a change in him. He doesn't seem like the same Edward. I think we should stop now." I don't know why, but I felt something snap inside me.

"Are you kidding me Alice!" I screamed, ignoring the blaring headache. "This was your idea!"

"Yeah, and I think we should stop now." I pretended I didn't hear her.

"Since when is Alice Brandon Cullen a quitter? We came up with a plan and we're going through with it! God dammit Alice! I've have to change everything about me and it will not be all in vain."

You tell her Bella!

"Bella, what the hell has happen to you? You don't even resemble my best friend! You're rude, you're mean, you're self-fish! You go out and party and get wasted. Face he facts Bells, you're a complete bitch now!"

"You know Alice, instead of blaming me, how about you put some of that hate on yourself. Remember, 'Bella, please!! You're my best friend! I need your help!! Please, please, please, please, please help!'" I screamed in my best Alice imitation.

I watched as her sweet sapphire eyes glistened with the tears of my harsh words.

Her fault. Its her fault.

Without another word I stomped out of her room, running into something hard.

"Ah!" I felt two arms wrap around my waist.

"Bella, what the hell is going on in there?" Edward's emerald orbs seem to pierce my soul.

Do not cry!

I took a deep breath and calmed myself.

"Just leave my alone!" I ripped myself away from his grip and headed for the stairs, but was stopped as he grabbed my wrist.

"Bella," He pleaded, "what has happened to you?" His voice could only reach a soft whisper.

"Nothing. This is how I am." I snapped back with such intense hate that his hand melted right off and released me.

I was on a path of self-destruction and the worst part was that I was destroying anyone in my path.

Who cares.
