Chapter 10

Alice P.O.V.

I quickly got out of bed, maybe a little too quickly as I got dizzy and had to lie back down. I waited five minutes, tears still streaming down my face, and got up again. I was making my way to the kitchen when my phone rang...I froze, Shit... I was going to ignore it, but I wanted to see whom it was. I ran back to my room and picked up my phone. I looked at the screen and the tears started streaming faster and harder, it was my mom, I whimpered when I saw a picture of my mother and I, we both had the cheesiest grins on our face and we just looked so happy.
"Hello." I quickly answered my voice breaking.
"Alice, baby? What's wrong?" My mom asked.
Oops...I guess I should've not have answered.
"Oh uhm...nothing mom, I...stubbed my toe while running to get the phone and it hurt." I lied.
" Oh...are you okay, baby girl?" She asked, probably not believing me one bit.
"Yes, how are you and dad?" I asked, no mom I wasn't okay...not one bit.
"Good, we are good, just missing you guys and home, I couldn't stop thinking about you today so I decided to give you a call." She said.
My heart started beating faster...
"I miss you too..." I whispered.
"Awh baby girl, well we should be there in a couple days, I can't wait to see you guys." She said.
"Same here...well mom I got to go, I'll talk to you later." I said, my heart breaking. "Okay sweetie, take care! I love you, see you soon."

"Bye…love you too." I said, hanging up the phone.

The tears were like a river flowing down my face…this wasn't how my life was supposed to be. I was supposed to go off to college, become a fashion phenomenon, find the perfect guy… those don't exist… get married, have kids…the whole shebang…not this…not James.

Enough Alice! Its time! I heard a sick voice in my head...I took a deep breath, and walked to the kitchen. I rummaged through the cabinets until I found what I was looking for.

Jaspers P.O.V.

I waited about thirty minutes until I decided to head out to their place, I walked to Rose's room and asked if she wanted to come, she looked smug but hopped of the bed following me to my car. It was a comfortable silence the whole way to Emmet's and Edwards place, the whole time I was thinking about Alice. I couldn't get her off my mind...This is wrong Jasper! You're taken! A voice shouted in my head said. I shook my head, trying to get her out of it...and failed miserably.

We arrived rather quickly, mostly because I was speeding. I hurried and parked the car and ran across to the other side of the car to open the door for Rose. Momma raised me a gentlemen. She told me to treat other girls how I wanted a guy to treat my sister, and that's exactly what I do.

We walked side by side to their door, and Rosalie rang the doorbell. We heard a yelp and a bang; Rosalie looked at me and ran the doorbell again, while I started pounding on the door.

I was scared, what if something happened to her? Is someone in there? A million possibilities ran through my mind...

Alice's P.O.V.

I was just about to grab the bottle, when the doorbell rang. I yelped, dropping the bottle. I put a hand on my heart to try and slow it down, but it didn't work. Who could be at the door? Both my brothers have a key, obviously. Could it be...oh no... It couldn't be...could it? I jumped again when the doorbell rang and there was pounding on the door. I quickly hid the bottle and made my way to the door. I tried to peep in the little peephole but I couldn't see through it...Geez...not everyone is this tall...stupid people! I thought in my head. I took a deep breath and slowly opened the door, peeking through the small crack I made. There in front of me, was Jasper, who look worried, with a gorgeous Rosalie behind him, looking equally worried and confused. I was relieved, and quickly opened the door all the way.

"Alice, are you okay?" Rosalie said stepping in, while Jasper just stared at me. Awkward.

"Uhm...yea why?" I said.

"We heard a yelp and a bang." Jasper said, staring down at me.

"Oh! Ha-ha...uh that...HEY! Can I get you guys anything to drink?" I asked, changing the subject.

"No, we are good, thanks." Jasper answered.

"Okay...uhm Emmett or Edward aren't home..." I said, lamely.

"Yea, we know they should be home soon though." Rose said, smiling at me.

"Oh, well come sit..." I said, pointing to the couch.

Oh please let my brothers come home soon...

Jaspers P.O.V.

She opened the door with a look of terror on her face, only becoming relieved when she noticed Rose and I standing there. Was she expecting someone else?

"Alice, are you okay?" Rose asked, while stepping in the apartment. I continued to stare at her, what was going on? I thought

"Uhm yea why?"

"We heard a yelp and a bang." I said.

She quickly changed the subject asking if we wanted something to drink, but soon invited us to sit...well this is kind of awkward.

We all just sat there staring at the floor, why aren't Rose and Alice talking? Weren't they supposed to be close?

"So...uhm...how's life." Alice asked. Wow, didn't see that one coming, I was shocked she made an effort to speak.

"Good, ha-ha, I'm excited we all are going back home this weekend, kind of shocking but I miss Forks, how's life for you Ali?" Rose said.

Alice chuckled darkly and responded with "Life's...life." and here we go again with the awkwardness.

Less than ten minutes later, we heard Emmett's booming voice, "I'm home!" Rosalie squealed and jumped into his waiting arms, he then came around to bump fists with me, and hug Alice.

"Hey squirt, how was your first day alone here?" He asked her.

"Fine." She responded.

"Did you eat?" He asked concerned, I would be too she was skin and bones.

"Mhm..." She responded, not looking into his eyes.

"Good." He smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes...hmm?

Emmett sat on the couch pulling Rose onto his lap and we both started talking about sports, while Rose was on her phone and Alice just sat there looking truly uncomfortable.

Fifteen minutes later, a smirking Edward and a blushing Bella walked in, holding a pizza box.

"Eddie!" Emmet exclaimed.

"Shut up, Emmy." Edward said, glaring at Emmett. We all laughed, and then said our hellos to them. Emmett got up and brought plates and a bunch of Pepsi's to the living room.

We talked and laugh, while we ate our pizza and by we I meant everyone but Alice, she barely talked and certainly did not laugh, but did however eat a slice of pizza, only because Edward made her though.

"So...I'm thinking we should go to the beach tomorrow, I don't have class, and Emmett and Edward get home around noonish" Rose said.

"I get done at 10 tomorrow, so I'm game." Bella said, blushing when everyone turned to look at her.

"I don't have class tomorrow either" I stated.

"Sweet! So what do you guys think?" Rose exclaimed.

"Sounds like a plan," Edward said, taking a sip out of his Pepsi.

"Hell yea! I haven't been to the beach in forever!" Emmett exclaimed.

While they were confirming plans, I turned to look at Alice, but noticed she wasn't there.

"Hey...where's Alice." I asked. Everyone looked around the room, not noticing she was gone, "I have no clue." Edward said, getting up to go check. He returned not even a minute later, stating she was in the bathroom.

"Do you think Alice would want to come?" Rose asked.

"I'm sure she would! Remember Edward, she would literally be down at the beach everyday...or well whenever it wasn't raining." Emmett said.

Edward chuckled, "Yea, we never went with her at first, until we realized how many guys were down there and then one of us would always go with her."

" Oh good times! Remember Jared? I ran into him last visit home, the fucker wouldn't even look at me." Emmet said, clearly amused. Who's Jared? I thought. Edward started laughing, and I looked around at Bella and Rose who both were just as confused as I was.

Emmett noticing our confusion took the time to explain, "So this was I don't know a couple years ago, right? and well Edward and I went to the beach with Alice, and this was our first time going with her that summer, and we noticed all the boys waving at her and that's when we really decided to not let her go alone, but anyways...so this little punk comes up right? and starts hitting on Alice, apparently not noticing Edward or me, like hello...how do you not notice this." taking the time to point at his body, "And Alice is glaring daggers at this kid right?" We all took the time to nod at him…

Flashback ( told from Emmett's P.O.V.)

"Jared…I thought I told you to never come within seeing distance from me?" Alice said, lifting on eyebrow.

"Oh come on baby, you know you want me and plus I could show you a good time." He said, flirtatiously. Oh hell no! I took a step forward…come on douche, how do you miss this?

"No thanks…" She said, disgusted. He moved to touch her when Edward always the speedy one grabbed his arm, "I don't think so." He said.

"And who the fuck do you think you are?" He said, looking up only now noticing us. His eyes widened and he turned slightly pale before composing himself and tried looking badass.

"Her brothers." Edward said, menacingly.

If he looked scared earlier it was nothing compared to now, I took my chance to give this little fucker a scare.

"We would appreciate it if you never speak to our sister again…ever" I said, taking a step closer to him.

"You got two brothers" he said, looking at Alice.

"Duh…" she said, in a bored voice.

"What do you say Eddie? Think we should take care of this punk." I said, crossing my arms.

" I say…Hell yea Emmy." He said, throwing me a glare.

"No wait! I'm sorry! I'll leave Alice alone, I didn't mean anything by it, I was just trying to get to know her, come one dudes!"

"You were trying to do more than that, and if you don't get the fuck out of here, you won't be able to walk for a very long time, understood?" I said.

*End Flashback*

"Wait, Jared as in Jacob's friend, Jared? Bella asked, we all didn't miss the growl Edward gave upon hearing Jacob's name.

"Yup" Emmett said, clearly amused.

"No way! Ha-ha! I remember I was hanging out at the reservation and he came home and he could barely walk, we asked him what happened and he said something about brothers…one on steroids…oh my god! What the hell did you guys do to him?" Bella exclaimed, turning to look at Edward and Emmett.

"He got what he deserved." Edward stated in an eerie calm voice, giving me the chills.
