I know I'm updating a lot, but I love this story and I have so many ideas that the story is writing itself! Plus everybody was yelling at me to update! Thank you to CullenLuv01 for submitting a summary for my contest! Since she helped me, I gave her a preview of this chapter. If you do a summary, I will send you part of the next chapter. I sent CullenLuv01 the People magazine article to give you an idea of how important the part of the chapter is that I'll send you. So help me!
Song: The first part, like when Bella's still mopey, Who Knew by Pink. During the People Magazine and anytime after that, About You Now by Miranda Cosgrove (Which is undeniably cheesy, but it matched the feelings and my sister blackmailed me into it by threatening to rip up my giant poster of Bella and Edward)

I heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?" I called.
There was a pause. "Edward." The person on the other side of the door answered.
"I thought I told you to leave me alone."
"Just let me explain—"
"I've had explanation enough." I flung open the door. I heard Edward's sharp intake of breath at my appearance.
"Bella, honey—"
"Don't you honey me, Edward Masen!" I yelled. "You've broken me beyond repair already. Isn't this enough?" I gestured to my distraught body. "Must you pull away every shred of my dignity first?"
"Bella, I'm not trying to steal your dignity. I want to tell you the truth." Edward said.
"I don't need the damn truth! The truth is you cheated on me! You broke my heart! Isn't that enough?"
"Bella, you don't know—"
"What don't I know?" I hissed, my voice dangerously low. "Because it's simple. In fact, I'll sum it up in two words: It's over."

"Bella! No! Wait!" I screamed as Bella slammed her door in my face. I heard her collapse onto her bed, sobbing.
"Bella." I whispered morosely.
"Edward." I spun around. Alice and Rosalie were blocking the hallway, their arms crossed over their chests and their eyes shooting daggers. If looks could kill, I thought to myself. Emmett and Jasper were standing behind them, mimicking their position. "Edward." Alice repeated, her voice cold. "I hope you're happy. You've succeeded in destroying Bella."
"I honestly wasn't trying to hurt her!"
"Then why did you lead her on like that?" Rosalie said, her eyes glinting dangerously.
"I—I—"
"We don't need an explanation. Go have fun with your little fiancée." Alice snarled. "But first—" The little pixie walked up to me and slapped me hard across the face. "That was for Bella!"
"This one too!" Rosalie joined in. She raised her hand and slapped my other cheek.
"Sorry, mate." Jasper said under his breath as he stepped forward. "But you deserve it." He balled his hand into a fist and punched me in the gut. I doubled over in pain. Apparently, Jasper could pack a punch.
"Ditto." Emmett said as he stepped forward to finish. He balled up his hand, reared back, and hit me on the side of my head. I blacked out.
--A WEEK LATER--

I'd never get over him, not if I lived to be a thousand years old. I knew that for a fact. Alice and Rosalie kept on telling me to try to move on, but it was impossible. This kind of stuff can't be forgotten that easily. Edward was my first, and only, love. He was probably fooling around with that slutty blond princess right now. The whole week, I'd lain on my bed looking at pictures of us. I was trying to figure out where I went wrong. I'd drank at least a gallon of water each day, since I just cried it straight out again. I listened to my breakup play list, which included songs like 'Before he Cheats' (unfortunately I didn't have time to trash Edward's Volvo) 'Breathe' by Taylor Swift, and 'My Happy Ending' by Avril Lavigne.
"Bella?" Alice called, her voice oddly strangled. "There's something I think you need to see."
"Bring it in." I groaned. Alice timidly entered my room and dropped a magazine face down on my bed. "What the—" I turned it over. Edward's face stared up at me from the cover of People. He looked almost as heartbroken as I felt.
"Alice, what the hell?" I said angrily. "Are you trying to hurt me even more?"
"Read the article. It will…explain."
"Fine. But it's your fault if I go into depression again." I opened the magazine to page thirty-two. Sir Edward, Princess Bella, Princess Tanya: Love Triangle? The title blazed. I scanned the article.
We've all heard about the engagement of Princess Tanya Denali of Wales and Sir Edward Masen of Devonshire. But inside sources tell us there may be unrest between the royal couple. "I think Edward's cheating on Tanya. He hardly ever sees her anymore." Irina, Princess Tanya's chambermaid, told us. Supposedly, Edward was never interested in Tanya. His father, Sir Carlisle, arranged the marriage with Tanya's father, King Aro Volturi. (Tanya took her deceased mother's maiden name as her last name.) Edward never agreed to the marriage.
But Edward has found a girl he is interested in. He met Princess Isabella Swan of England at her coming-out ball in June. They have been freely dating since then. Princess Bella's best friends and cousins, Princess Rosalie and Princess Alice, are dating Sir Edward's best friends, Sir Emmett McCarty of Cornwall and Sir Jasper Whitlock of Warwick as well. It should have been a happy ending. But Tanya crashed Bella's party and told the English princess about her engagement to Edward. Edward was planning to annul the engagement the next day so that he could be with Bella without a scandal. But Bella believed he was cheating on her with Tanya, so she broke up with Edward and has since gone into a state of depression. Bella's close friend, Princess Rosalie Hale of England, says, "Bella has been in her room ever since she broke up with Edward. She just cries. She doesn't even come out to eat. (Princess Alice) and I have to bring her food."
"I am…devastated. There is no other word for it. I love Bella and I can't believe I hurt her so badly. I feel terrible and I know that I will always love her." says Sir Edward on his and Princess Bella's breakup.
"I will be there to comfort Edward and I want him to know that I will be here to help him through this…and anything afterwards. I hope he will see that it is futile to annul our engagement now." Princess Tanya told our reporters. Princess Bella could not be reached for comment.
Despite Princess Tanya's hopes, Edward did annul the engagement and is now single, although not dating. He, too, is in depression. He stays at his mansion on the outskirts of London where he lives with Sir Emmett and Sir Jasper. "I'm not sure when (Edward,) or Bella for that matter, will come out of depression." said Sir Emmett at a press conference with Jasper, Rosalie and Alice. All we can say is, we hope that these royals will manage to find their happily ever after somehow.
"Is this true?" I asked Alice, my eyes shining.
"Every word. Even my interview."
"Edward wasn't cheating on me!" I yelled. I grabbed Alice and twirled her around the room. "It'll all be all right!"
"Whoa, Bella!" Alice giggled.
"It'll be fine!" I sang. "We can be together! Oh, I love him so much Alice!"
"I can tell!" Alice wheezed. She was out of breath from my twirling.
"Go get Rosalie! I need to set things right!"
