Alice

I left the party feeling so furious and angry at Bella and Rosalie. Jasper was waiting in my room, looking a little sad and neglected, when I stormed in, slamming the door in rage.

"FOR FUCKS SAKE!" I screamed. Poor Jasper jumped out of his skin, and looked at me frightened.

"I've fucking had it with those bitches!" I went on, pacing back and forth. He didn't seem to relax.

"Who?" He murmured, swallowing hard.

"BELLA! AND ROSALIE!" I screamed, making him jump again.

"Oh" He said.

"Do you know what they fucking did?"

"No...but I'm sure you'll tell me..."

"NOT only did they fucking abandon me in a room full of drunken, disgusting, piggish men grabbing my ass and boobs, and spitting their beer/spliff mixed saliva all over me! BUT THEN the fucking cops turned up didn't they? Apparently word got out that someone was dealing cocaine on the premises and there was under-age drinking and drug taking so a whole bunch of coppers turned up with their big, black sticks! I was lucky I got away, but I didn't even want to go to the stupid party! Bella got me all fucking worked up, going on and on about how I'm like her sister and how I couldn't handle being the talk of the school and all this bullshit!" I spat, still pacing.

"What do you mean? Why would you be the talk of the school?"

"BECAUSE...because, I'm hanging out with you" He looked hurt by my comment so I quickly went over to him and took his hand. "No not like that! I mean I'm glad I am hanging out with you, but Bella put all this shit in my head about it ruining my reputation and that I'd end up being constantly scrutinised and stuff and truthfully I don't give a flying scotts arse if I do any more! Let them judge, who gives a fuck right?" I smiled, sitting beside him. He nervously smiled back, shifting awkwardly. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"Erm...it's nothing...it's just...the swearing...you know" He said awkwardly.

"Oh! Sorry, I forgot..." I said, remembering he didn't much like the swearing being that he was a strong Christian and all. I smiled. "I'll try and be good. I just lost it that's all. Bella really does my head in. I can't be doing with her shi...baggage...any more! So what if she got raped, it doesn't give her the fucking right to be such a volatile cow! OOPS sorry I said fucking! ARGH I said it again, sorry" I rambled, laughing at myself. Jasper looked at me in complete horror. His face had gone from a palish cream colour to pure, white. I stared at him, puzzled until it hit me why he was in such shock. "Uh oh!" I said, smacking my forehead with my hand.

"Bella...was...raped?" He said still flabbergasted.

"Oh shit! I wasn't supposed to say anything! I can't believe it I'm so STUPID, so, so STUPID!" I screamed smacking my head against the wall a few times. "You cannot say anything! I mean it Jasper, no one is supposed to know! Oh crap I can't believe I told you" I carried on, feeling really awful. Jasper sat in silence, still with his jaw hanging at the seams. "Jasper?" I said after quite a while of silence, waving my hand in his face to see if he was still alive.

"I...can't..." He stuttered. "I can't believe it! Is that what happened over the summer?" He asked, now with a flush of anger in his expression.

"Yes" I answered reluctantly.

"But...I...what?!"

"Jasper promise me you won't say anything?" I begged.

"Of course I won't! But I just can't believe it. Were you there?"

"I was the one that found her"

"Oh my god! Who did it? Did they get caught?"

"I can't tell you" I answered.

"How? She was barely 12! How is this even possible?"

"Oh it's possible! That's how sick some people are! She was such a wreck"

"Now I understand why she...why" He broke off.

"Yeah. It still doesn't make it right though. I guess she was angry because you were taking up my time, and she wanted me to herself, but even so she shouldn't have done what she did to you!"

"No she shouldn't, but I can understand now a little more. Why did she become this way? I mean lots of people go through things like this, but they don't act out and try and destroy their lives!"

"It goes a little deeper than her just being...you know! But I can't tell you, I've already told you too much. Just know that I was the only person she had supporting her. I think the day we started school was the day she decided to become someone else. Pretend she was normal, and shut out feelings. It's not healthy, and I have tried for so many years to be there for her, and support her but she just keeps shoving me away whenever I try to bring it up! I thought that if I stuck by her and pretended with her for a while she'd end up breaking down and start to deal with it. I mean no body can run forever right? But I just kept waiting and waiting, and then the pretending became like second nature to me. I just learned to live with it, still hoping one day she would break. But I can see now she's stone hard, and unbreakable! And I can't pretend any more, it's drowning me. I love her, to pieces but I just can't do it any more, I can't keep cleaning up her messes and faking a smile when I feel miserable!" I said with tears strolling down my cheeks. Jasper noticed my tears, and softly placed his arm around my shoulder, pulling my head to rest on his shoulder. I clutched at his soft, fluffy white, woolly jumper and cried into his shoulder. It pained me to have to let Bella go, because she really was like family to me, and I cared so much about her, but I really couldn't carry on dealing with her crap any more. It wasn't a lifestyle I wished to live. Her and Rosalie were just far too wild and out of control. I stayed lying in Jaspers warm embrace, cuddling into his really cushy jumper and comfy body, and nestling my face into his neck. He cuddled me back, making little humming sounds every now and again, and rubbing my back comfortingly. I felt my heart skipping so fast as he held me, and I couldn't breath as I took in his honey suckle odour. It felt as though I wanted to be with him like this forever, and never leave his arms. Such a strange feeling to me since men used to mean so little to me, and I pretty much hated every single male on the planet. Without even thinking of it my hand slid up from his jumper, brushing his cheek and locking into his hair. He moaned a little, closing his eyes, as I felt his breathing increase. I turned my face slightly and pressed my lips against his warm neck, slowly kissing it passionately. He buried his nose into my hair, as I continued to kiss his neck and gently pull at his hair. Then I brushed my lips up his neck, behind his ear, forcing a moaning sound from his throat, and then across to his lips. He caressed my lips back with his, slowly leaning his body into mind until he was laying on top of me on the floor. I began pulling his hair harder, and pushing his lips so far into mine, wrapping my legs around his waist and moaning. It was the weirdest most wonderful pleasure in the world. Passionate but tender at the same time, and so full of deep feelings it just felt amazing. So much so I whispered in his ear "Make love to me". He groaned and kissed me harder, pushing his body into mine. Before I could get carried away he pushed himself off of me puffing and panting and shouting "Stop! Stop!"

"I'm sorry did I do or say something wrong?" I said, worrying my plea had weirded him out.

"NO! Oh god no!" He said still panting, and looking a little pained.

"Was it the 'make love to me' comment? I'm sorry if that freaked you out!"

"NO! Oh Alice...I can't! I want to SO so bad but I can't! I...my religion...it would be a sin" He said, still looking pained and frustrated with himself.

"Oh I'm sorry!" I said sitting myself up and straightening myself out.

"No I'm sorry! I should not have done that it was so wrong!"

"It's ok Jasper!" I said clutching at his hand. "I can wait! Your worth the wait" I smiled. And I really meant it. He was!

Jasper

I woke the next morning lying next to her, entangled together. We slept together last night, fully clothed luckily, although it almost ended up completely different! I almost lost control of myself when she whispered in my ear 'make love to me'. I felt my whole body ripple with a weird, fluffy feeling, and I desperately wanted to do what she asked. But I was so strong about waiting till marriage that I had to pull myself away. So we settled for cuddling, and it felt really nice sleeping beside her. I lay quietly watching her for what seemed like minutes but was actually hours, until she finally began to stir and awoke. She yawned, the cutest yawn ever, and then smiled with her eyes closed.

"Morning" She said humming slightly.

"Good morning!" I smiled back, lifting my index finger and stroking her cheek.

"Mmm that feels nice" She softly moaned, still with her eyes closed. God she looked like a angel.

"We should probably get up" I said shifting around to move, but she stopped me with her arm, pulling me back into her embrace.

"Nooo! Not yet, pretty please?" She begged in a cute little voice.

"How can I say no to that face!" I said, smiling and nuzzling my nose into her hair. We were quickly asleep again.

"So my mom spoke to your mother yesterday..." She started as we sat down at the table stuffing our face with yummy chicken sandwich's Alice had made.

"Oh...yeah" I said, remembering I still had mother issues.

"Don't panic, I told you everything would be ok!" She smiled. "Your mom's staying in our...erm...second home" She said flushing red embarrassed by the fact she had two houses. I raised my eyebrow at her and shook my head grinning. Of course she had two houses! Because this wasn't big enough already! "Before you start, that used to be our little town house, before my father left and then my mum started doing well at work so she wanted something bigger. But when the time came to sell it we just couldn't let it go, we'd had so many good memories there, so we kept it encase any family came over to stay or for times like this! Any way your mom's hiding out there for a while, whilst my mom sorts some help for you dad. Hopefully, she thinks, your dad just needs some serious help for a while and maybe he can get back on track again. But in the mean time my mom's talking to your mom and helping her through her problems too. She's a miracle worker my mother so there's no need for you to worry any more! Your house is being taken care of as well" She grinned suspiciously then.

"What do you mean my house is being taken care of?" I asked curiously, furrowing my brow.

"You'll see!" She carried on grinning to herself. I let it go. "So what do you want to do today?" She asked after a while.

"Don't know!" I answered honestly. My weekends mainly consisted of locking myself in my room and reading or sketching buildings and stuff. I was really into architecture, always had been, but my family expected me to become a vicar one day just like my father and his father etc etc. Now I had Alice in my life again.

"We could go catch a movie or something! There's a new horror on called 'crosshairs' that looks gory as hell! Fancy it?" She asked seeming really excited for a girl about a horror movie.

"Yeah ok" I agreed, not remembering the last time I saw a film at the movies. She smiled and we went on eating in silence.

The movie was as gory as the reviews had made it out to be. Blood everywhere, I almost felt like puking. Alice seemed to laugh the whole way through, whispering every so often "As if!" and "How fake is that!". God she was something else!

After the movie we walked out of the cinema holding hands and laughing at how ridiculous the movie had been. As we came out onto the road we spotted a group of familiar people walking towards us.

"Oh shit!" Alice murmured, quickly trying to hide herself behind me, and blushing bright red.

"ALICE!" One of the girls screamed.

"Hi Jane!" Alice bemused forcing a smile. The group looking at each other and then at me and Alice, smirking to themselves.

"On a date?" Jane said, slyly smiling now. I felt really awkward. Alice sighed frustrated and then smiled up at me comfortingly, squeezing my hand.

"Yes, as a matter of fact I am!" She said proudly, standing up tall and staring them down.

"Oh" Jane said, as the four of them burst into to laughter. "Bye" She added, walking off and laughing.

"Well I'm glad that's over with!" Alice sighed, trying to stay positive.

"I'm sorry! I don't mean to cause you trouble" I said.

"No! Don't you dare apologise!" She said stepping in front of me and wrapping her arms around my shoulders. "I made this decision, for me! I've been wanting to escape their evil claws for a long time, but I didn't think I had the strength too! Until you..." She said shying away. I lifted her chin with my hand and leaned in to brush her lips with mine. We stood there for hours kissing, not caring who was looking at us any more, or what anybody thought because we had each other now, and that's all that mattered! We'd take all the crap at school tomorrow, and hold each others hand in support. We both only had one more year. One more year and then we would be an university together, hopefully as far away from idiot sinners and childish bullies for all of eternity! It was the start of a great relationship and I couldn't wait to find out what happened next! Me and my Alice.
