A/N: Hey everyone! I just wanted everyone to know that I'm starting a brand new story called The Boyfriend Stealer!
Summary: Bella's old friend from Phoenix comes to visit Bella. Bella couldn't be more ecstatic, until she finds out her friend is out to steal Edward away from her. Will Bella loose Edward forever?
I will be updating that story soon, I am done with the first chapter and it should be out in about a couple of days. Tell me if you guys think the summary sounds intriguing! So…here is the next chapter. Sorry that it is so short! I'm really sorry I just had to make this a chapter in order to do the next chapter.
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight, Stephanie Meyer does.

"Food?" Alice asked me while looking down at her black notepad.
"Check," I said looking down at my blue notepad that Alice bought me just for the party planning.
"Drinks?"
"Check."
"Did you send out all the e-mails to everyone?" she asked.
"Yes." She sighed in relief and then kept writing on her notebook. I took a bite of my P & J sandwich.
"Well, I hired the DJ already, so that's taken care of," she wrote more into her book. "Well…it seems like we got everything! I can't wait until Saturday," she said enthusiastically.
"Me too," I mumbled incoherently. The truth was…I was getting nervous for Edward birthday party. Ever since that day at Edward house, when I was on top of him… now I feel different about him. I don't actually know if I have feelings for him, I'm confused right now. It's just the way his body was pressed against mine….it felt extraordinary. If he knew that I wanted to do a lot more than just lie on top of him…then, I don't know what might happen.
But what if I was just one of those girls? I didn't want to be one of those girls who got played by Edward Masen. Maybe I would be different since Edward and I are actually friends…but I still wonder if he would ever hurt me the way he hurt all those other girls.
"Bella…we are going shopping tomorrow," Alice said, interrupting my thinking while taking a bit of her salad.
"Oh, joy!" I said sarcastically while squishing up my sandwich in tiny pieces.
Alice scoffed, "Why are you acting so down Bella? Aren't you excited for Edward's party?" When she said his name out loud it made my heart accelerate.
"Of coarse I am." She didn't seemed convinced though. She placed her fork down gently and then stared at me skeptically.
"Is there something you're not telling me?" she asked earnestly.
I sighed, confused on whether or not I should tell her. I needed to tell someone, it was all bottled up inside of me. No one knew about my confused feelings toward Edward. I know that I could trust Alice, she was my bestfriend.
"I'm just not thrilled about going to the party…" I replied honestly.
"Is it Edward?" she whispered gently. I looked at her; the answer to her question was in my eyes. My face reddened because she finally understood. "Oh Bella… you love Edward don't you?"
I couldn't speak so I just nodded slowly.
"Maybe you should talk to him about it during the party…" she suggested casually.
"I don't know yet Alice… please do not tell him anything," I pleaded. If Edward found out that I had feelings for him…he would probably not even want to be my friend anymore.
"I-I won't," she stuttered. She didn't sound convincing. She didn't look me in the eyes, she just fidgeted with the hem of her blouse.
"Alice." She finally gazed into my eyes, "Promise me you won't tell Edward," I pleaded.
She stared at me for a long ten seconds, it seemed hard for her to actually make this difficult promise. Her eyes held pain and torture for some reason. Why would it be so hard for her to keep this secret? It's not like Edward felt the same way. I still waited patiently for her reply.
"I promise."
