"A 'Bonfire Bash' down at La Push tonight. Sounds fun." I was looking at the flyer taped to the wall near my locker. Jasper looked at me incredulously.
"Are you serious? Since when has any kind of party sounded fun to you? Are you on something?" We started walking towards the parking lot.
"Yes. The floor," I giggled. He swatted playfully at the back of my head. I ducked, tripped, and met Jasper's arms. He sighed, rolling his eyes. I blushed.
"Hey guys, what's up?" Edward came striding over to us, pushing his bronze locks out of his eyes.
"Not Bella, that's for sure," Jasper replied. I kicked him.
Edward chuckled, then spotted the flier in my hand. "Are you two going to the party on the reservation?"
"Yeah, we were thinking about it. You?" I said, unlocking my truck.
"If I knew someone going. So, yes, then." He caught my keys as I habitually dropped them.
"Awesome. You can meet Jacob and all his friends. They're a pretty funny lot."
Edward tensed at Jacob's name. I pretended not to notice.
"Want to carpool down to La Push? So you don't show up alone?"
Edward smiled. "Yeah, that would be great."
I smiled back. "I'll pick you up at, say, seven, then?"
"Sounds good. And Alice will probably want to go."
"Of course." I got in my truck, turning back one more time to say, "See you tonight."
We arrived at the Cullen Mansion at seven, only to wait thirty minutes for Alice to finish getting ready.
I had worn a casual, purple dress that Rosalie had forced me into. When she wasn't looking, I had snuck jeans under them. Skirts and klutziness don't mix.
Jasper had gone for the emo look, trying to figure out what style of guy Alice preferred. He had debated between skinny jeans and band shirt, and a polo with plaid shorts for an hour, the skinny jeans eventually winning. Emmett had mocked him the entire time.
Edward had come down the stairs looking stunning in his usual button down shirt and jeans. And with him he brought two Guitar Hero controllers. He said Alice would be a while.
A few songs, victory dances, and arguments later, and Alice bounded down the stairs. She had on a sparkly tank top and red leather pants. Her spiky hair had streaks of gold in them now, bringing out the butterscotch undertones in her hazel eyes.
"Ready to party?!" She grabbed my hand and dragged me out to my truck. I hopped in the driver's seat, Alice following into the passenger's. Jasper and Edward climbed into the back.
The drive to La Push didn't take very long. We arrived by eight, when the party was heating up. By the looks of it, the bonfire had been abandoned because of rain and the party was moving into Quil's house.
We walked in to blaring music and swaying bodies. I walked to the center of the house, looking for Jake. A random drink got thrust into my hand, and, getting hot already, I took a sip.
Delicious, I thought. Without pausing I chugged the entire thing, then went to look for more. I chugged down another, then started feeling sick.
What WAS that? I thought. Ugh…I feel like crap. I dashed upstairs looking for a bathroom. Maybe if I gagged myself I would feel better, and get that drink out of my system.
I walked down the hallway and opened a random door. I was starting to feel dizzy, disoriented. I walked into the room and nearly fainted at what I saw.
I had found Jake.
