JPOV:
We all knew the mood of the party depended on the number of people exiting Alice's car. We prayed it was two. I'm sure it looked funny, the four of us standing at the screen door waiting patiently for the doors to open on Alice's car. I felt Bella grab my hand and squeeze it roughly. Finally after what seemed to be hours the driver's side door opened. Alice got out and headed up to the house. The passenger door never opened. Once Alice was closer we could see her mascara filled tears.
"I broke it off," she said and she pushed past us, she ran to the back of the house to Rosalie's bedroom. Rose and Bella followed her quickly. I looked to Edward who was probably mirroring my facial expression. Despair. We wanted our group to remain the same, unchanged. As time passed we knew it would never happen. We grew up, and changed.
Granted Emmett made a huge mistake. But we were all guilty to some degree. We all made mistakes, and took each other for granted at some point. We were niave to think we could survive until graduation unscathed.
"What do we do?" Edward asked. I sat down on the couch. I shrugged my shoulders, not entirely sure we could do anything. Edward pulled out his cell to call Emmett.
"Hey Em man, whats going on?" He listened to Emmett tell him everything. Every now and then he would make a noise like, hm, or yea. Emmett wouldn't let him get much more in. Finally after a few minutes Edward was able to talk again. "Alright, well if you still want to come you can. Bye," he hung up his phone and looked at me like he was worried.
"What did he say?"
"He sounds bad. Im really worried about him Jasper. I think he might do something stupid."
"He wouldn't. That would be the worst possible decision ever," I shook my head. "What did he say happened?" I felt worst then a chick wanting to know the gossip.
"He said basically he tried giving Alice her next gift, and she threw it in his face. Thankfully it was only a gift certificate. Apparentely, no one told Emmett that Lauren works at that spa. That was just the extra push Alice needed to finally tell him it was over," we sat there and let that just sink in. I could hear someone exit Rose's bedroom, I looked down the hall and saw Bella making her way to us. She had her head hung down, and she looked like she had been crying. I stood and met her at the doorway. I pulled her into a hug, just letting her cry on my shoulder for a bit.
"Oh Jasper its awful. I have never seen Alice so depressed. She hasn't stopped sobbing. It her birthday party, and she is in Rosalie's room bawling her eyes out. She's badly cliche-ing that song," Bella sniffed, and wiped her eyes. I couldn't help myself, Bella brought it up. All of a sudden I was humming, 'its my party and I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, you would cry too if it happened to you'. Damn. That shit would be stuck in my head all night. Bella looked at me like I had lost my mind.
"Quit humming it Jasper, that shit is hard to forget once you think about it," I know. Fuck. I sat back down, bringing Bella into my lap. The three of us just sat there, not sure what to do. Should we turn people away at the door? Or should we let them come in and party, while the guest of honor was somewhere crying. As if she could sense our dilema, Rose came out.
"Just let people party. Alice said she didn't care, and she might not even stay," Rose shrugged her shoulders, and went back to Alice, Bella jumped up and followed. This was totally not turning out how we had hoped. People started showing up about an hour later. Edward and I hadnt moved from our positions on the couch. We were to bummed about everthing to care. Eventually everyone started getting drunk, they were all dancing or being stupid. I saw the girls emmerge from Rose's room. Bella and Rose were protecting Alice from God knows what. Edward and I joined them.
"We are talking Alice home, Jasper," she motioned me to follow.
"Edward stay here with me," Rose whispered and he nodded. I took over for the girls and carried Alice out to Bella's car, which miraculously wasn't blocked in. We drove her the short two blocks over and helped her into her house. I carried her to her room, and laid her down to sleep. She didn't stir at all, after the car ride put her to sleep to be begin with. Once we had her tucked in, we headed back outside. I grabbed Bella's arm to stop her.
"What do you want to do? We can go back and help Edward and Rose, or we can go home," she considered it for a few minutes.
"I need a drink, lets go back."

BPOV:
Oh shit, Alice got out of her car alone. She had been crying, this wasn't good. She came running up, pushing past us, she sobbed out that she and Emmett had broken up. I followed her and Rose down the hall to Rose's room. Alice had flopped onto the bed, and buried her face into the pillows. We rushed forward and sat next to her rubbing her back while she cried for a while. Finally she slowed her tears and turned her head so we could hear her.
"How fucking stupid is he? He got me a fucking gift certificate to the local spa. The same stupid spa Lauren works at. What the hell does that say? He asked her for a favor in return for sex?" I looked to Rose and like me, she had no fucking clue what to say to that. Alice squeezed her eyes shut, and more tears poured down her face. It was hearbreaking to watch. I realized Rose and I were both crying along side her. I loved Alice but I couldn't sit here and watch this. I stood, Rose raised an eyebrow at me.
"Im going to see what the guys are up to, I'll be right back," I left. I walked out of the room, heartbroken for Alice, for Emmett, for all six of us.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We came back to Rosalie's. The party was still in full swing. I led Jasper to the kitchen and we just looked over the alcohol selection. I don't know what I was in the mood for. I took a deep breath and looked at him. He wrapped his arms around my shoulders pulling me to him. I wrapped mine around his waist. I buried my face into his shirt, and chest. I breathed him in.
"Hey, I'm glad you guys came back, how did Alice do when you took her home?" I untangled myself from Jasper and looked at Rose.
"As well as could be expected Im sure. She was sleeping, we tucked her in, and left," I shrugged, not sure what else we really could do. Rose just nodded and handed me a mixed drink. I raised my eyebrow at it.
"Just drink it. If you feel like I do, you could really use the alcohol," I smiled at her, grateful. I took a sip, it was sweet. It tasted like strawberries. I could barely taste the alcohol.
I needed to be careful. I could see myself drinking several of these, not realizing how drunk they were making me. Jasper grabbed a Bud Light from the fridge. We sat at the bar in the kitchen and just drank our drinks. I was so ready for it to be May. We would be done with school, done with the drama, and off to college. I wish Charlie could see me graduate. I smiled when I thought of him. I was proud of how our relationship was mended at the end. He was even happy to know I loved Jasper. I turned to him, he was taking a drink.
"I love you," he sat his beer down, and smiled.
"I love you too darlin'," he took my right hand in his. He squeezed it slightly, and held onto it.
