Chapter 12
Epov
I couldn't believe I was seeing her here, I thought I would never have to see her again. Oh man I thought this is definitely not good. I looked at Bella whose eyes were round with shock although I had no idea what she was shocked about, then at Alice who was staring at me eyes filled with worry I shook my head at her and looked back to Tanya who was my ex my very clingy very obsessive very crazy ex. This was going to be very bad.
I looked back to Bella when my shock faded enough for me to hear the words being shouted.
"You lied to me." Tanya yelled.
"I didn't lie." yelled back the big guy who she was fighting with
"Yes you did you said that you were going to a friends house but I no I find you here, waiting for that skank." she was starting to cry and I saw the guy try to reach out to her.
"get away from me!" she screamed and started to run towards the door. I thought for sure that she was going to pass our table and keep going but right as she looked up her puffy red eyes caught mine and I knew all hell was going to break loose.

I watched as the girl stopped and looked at Edward for a full minute before screaming.
"Edward, oh my gosh how are you its been so long I've missed you so much how come you never call me anymore." her words were so rushed that I barely understood what she said but from what I could make out it sounded as if she knew Edward from somewhere. My thoughts were confirmed when she threw her arms around him and began sobbing.
"Oh Edward he was so mean to me, I cant believe I ever went with him, I love you so much I'm so glad we can be together again." I looked to Edward whose eyes were round as dinner plates.
"Um Tanya, I um I mean." he stumbled over his words "This is my girl friend Bella."
She looked at me and her sobbing turned into a smug sniffling.
"Not for long." was her simple reply and held on to Edward tighter when her tried to pull her off. Red hot fury flashed through me and I lunged for her, she was so going to pay. I felt strong arms wrap around me and struggled against my captor to get to her.
"Now, now." said an almost familiar voice "I think your boyfriend can handle himself." I froze and struggled to turn around when the arms realized my intentions they let go and I turned to look up at my ex best friend.
"What are you doing here." I asked
"Well I was trying to eat dinner before my ex." her sneered at the girl that Edward had managed to her off of him and into a chair. "Came and started a scene." I looked at him and then at Edward.
"How are you?" I asked softly and I saw him smile.
"I'm good. How are you?" he asked and I backed up a little he was to close for comfort.
"I thought you moved to Texas." I said not answering his question I was beginning to feel the pain of seeing him again and it was getting hard to breathe.
"I did but I didn't like it there it was to sunny." He said smiling slightly.
I nodded and then looked up realizing that our group had gone silent.
"I think Bella needs to go to the restroom." Alice announced and I looked at her numbly and nodded she grabbed my arm at the same time Jacob did.
"Bella, I really am sorry and I would like to see you again." he said "I want to explain why I quit calling." he slipped something into my hand and let Alice and Rose pull me towards the bathroom.

I felt my heart break a little at the look of sadness on Bella's face as she was dragged towards the bathroom.
"Tanya I think you should go." I said looking at her
"Oh but Eddiekins I missed you so much and its been forever since I have seen you." I gritted my teeth in frustration.
"Hey were going to Blackout later why don't you meet us there that way you and Eddiekins can chat." Emmett said and I was relived and pissed at the same time. Relived because she was getting up to leave, pissed at both the nickname and the fact that she was going to be a the bar we were going to. She leaned against me and I scooted away in disgust.
"I'll see you later." she said before walking off. I then looked at the guy who had been talking to Bella.
"What the hell did you do to her." I asked
"Who Tanya? Nothing I just broke up with her and she's crazy." He replied
"No you dumb ass. What did you do to Bella." I was getting mad the thought of the sadness on Bella's face was not helping my mood.
"I didn't do a damn thing to her." he shouted and began walking towards the door. I let him go he wasn't worth it.
"What happened?" I asked Emmett and Jasper it was Emmett who answered me.
"He was her best friend when they were 13." he said "She had a major crush on him and he lead her on, then one day he announced that he had decided to move to Texas with his mom. She was crushed, he had chosen to leave her." he looked grim "He promised he would call her everyday after he move and he did, for the first week and then the calls came less and less frequently until he stopped calling her all together and when she called him his mom would make an excuse as to why he couldn't talk. It was before she had Alice or Rose or any of us as friends." He looked at Jasper who finished.
"She was alone for a little while before Alice befriended her." he said "It wouldn't be a big thing if it happened now. But at the time it was devastating for her." we all looked towards the restroom as Alice, Bella and Rosalie came out, Bella looked much better.
"Whose ready for a couple of drinks." said Alice as she approached and we all nodded. I knew I definitely was.
Bpov
I will be okay." I told Alice and Rosalie as we entered the bathroom I was trying hard to shake the feeling of sadness and look to the good side of this.
"Are you sure." Asked Rose as she wrapped her arms around me and I felt Alice's arms over hers.
"Yeah guys. I will be okay." I said "He hurt me but I'm sure that we can be friends again."
The looked at me as if I had grown a third head.
"Why would you want to be friends with him." Alice asked aghast
"Guys he was my best friend, surely I can forgive him for not calling me." I said Rose and Alice looked at me and then each other.
"If that's what you want." Rose said
"Lets go I need a drink." Alice said as she walked towards the door rose and I followed her. I saw with relief that Jacob wasn't there. Even though I was going to try and be friends with him it was going to be way had to let him apologize when he had hurt me so badly I saw that the girl that had hung onto Edward was gone and that mad me feel a little bit better. We walked out and Alice announced that we were going to a club instead of a bar because she needed to dance. I got into the Volvo with Edward.
"Who was she?" I asked he looked at me with pleading eyes.
"Tanya is my ex girlfriend." he said and I nodded I had figured that much.
"What's her deal." I asked
"She's extremely crazy I mean like she needs to be in a nut house. I went out with her when I was We only went out for a month before I realized that we weren't going to work and when I broke up with her she acted like it was cool but after a week of being apart she began calling me and I would see her standing out side my house, it took two monthes and a threat or a retraining order that kept her away all this time. She's seriously got problems and I promise you Bella she's nothing to me absolutely nothing." his eyes screamed sincerity and the intenseness of his voice made me believe with out a doubt that he was telling the truth and I threw my arms around him and kissed his lips.
"Thank you." I said
"for what." he asked confused
"For not lying to me." I said and then his lips where on mine, when we came up for air Edward pressed his forehead to mine.
"Thank you." he said this time it was my turn to be confused.
"for what?"
"For trusting me." I smiled and then frowned as he asked
"Who was he?"
"He was my first best friend and my first crush and he hurt me badly when we were younger but I'm older now and I want to be friends with him again." I said it in a rush as if the whole story would hurt me even if it was a very shortened version.
"Is that all?" he asked in a knowing voice.
"They told you already." I accused
"Yes but I wanted to here it from you." he said "are you okay."
"I'm fine." I said. "Now lets go before the others think we died."
He smiled kissed me one more time and started the car.
"Lets go have some fun." he said. "After all this I think we deserve some strong drinks and good dancing." I smiled at the thought maybe this night wouldn't be so bad after all.
