"Let me get this straight. You definitely are check out of the relationship with Tyler, but won't break up with him because you're scared it'll make Edward break up with Alice. But, you want him to anyway because he's still in love with you and therefore isn't good enough for her?"
I was talking to my bestie from college, Angela Webber.
"Yes," I sighed in relief. "I'm so glad someone understands."
I was sitting in my old bedroom in the suburbs. It was becoming a frequent thing to spend my dinners with mom and dad. Tyler had night classes and I could use the excuse of falling asleep here to avoid going home.
It's almost Halloween and Tyler and I haven't been intimate in three months. We barely talk. In fact, the only people I really hang with are my parents, sometimes Rose, and my new co-worker, Jacob Black. Totally gay, but a new face and something I really need.
Alice has been busy with work and worrying about Edward. Plus, I've been avoiding her because I'm avoiding him. But I can't avoid him forever. Tomorrow is Halloween and Alice is throwing an extravoganza at Edward's place.
Ty has night class, so Jacob and I are going as Jasmine and Aladdin. Rose and Emmett are going as Cleopatra and Marc Anthony. I don't know what Alice and Edward are going as, but I don't care.
