"Hey where's Rose" Obviously Emmett would ask that, they were sort of like dating.

"Oh shit, I totally forgot, when we were at the shop she just sort of fainted and then the assistant took her to hospital."

"What, we have to go there now." Emmett looked worried. We rushed there and she was lying down waiting for us, she just was unconscious for a little while. We told her what happened and she them same laughed uncontrollably. Alice just huffing not likens us laughing at her. She still threatened to get us back. After that we headed home exhausted from what happened having a good night's sleep.

Chapter 14: Departing and parties

Bella's pov

I woke up bright and Early in the morning. I had a sudden urge to eat eggs, I don't know why but eggs for some odd reason was constantly on my mind. Dragging myself out of my cosy bed my feet dragged on the smooth brown carpet heading for the shower. I went into a cold shower waking me up and ready for the rest of the day. Getting out I skipped downstairs opening the drawers to look for the ingredients for my breakfast.

I walked to the doorway and on the floor was letters; Bills, junk mail, hmm...what's this. SHIT! I just forgot my mother Renee told me that I was to visit her; she told me that she was going to send me a letter for the tickets for the plane, and here the letter was, I didn't have time to pack! I ripped open the letter and it said that it would be near the night when the plane departed. Quickly in the kitchen I scoffed down my food and went to get my blackberry phone to call Alice and Rose. The willing obliged to come to my apartment and help me pack.

I quickly called Edward and told him that I was going to be away for a couple of days until Wednesday when the ball would be happening.

Alice and Rose rang the bell and I answered letting them in. A few hours later we packed and they put all the things I needed, they insisted that I needed makeup and all that so I let them but it was a fat chance that I really was going to wear it.

"So what do we do now?" Rose asked.

"Um I dunno, there's nothing to do, the party starts later in the night."

"What party?" Party? I didn't hear or any even though I hated them with a passion they were just too loud and crazy!

"Edward's throwing a party down his" Alice explained.

"Whoopee I'm glad that I'm leaving"

"Let's play would you rather"

"Sure" I had no other choice but to agree.

"Okay I start first, Bella, who would you rather Johnny Depp or the handsome Edward Cullen NOT!" She made a signal that she was vomiting at Edward's name. It was a very hard one; Rose knew how much I like Johnny.

"I can't" I complained like a whiny teenager.

"Come on Bella choose already!" Alice narrowed her eyes. Giving me the 'don't you start' look.

"Edward?" It sounded more like a question then an answer.

"EW" The two belched!

"Ugh I really thought you like Johnny but ew seriously Edward that's just ew. EW, EW, EWWWW!" Rose looked disgusted.

"Shut up leave me alone." I covered myself behind Alice and threw a pillow at Rose.

"Okay Rose, would you rather Emmett or Brad Pitt?"

"No way! NO FREAKIN' WAY! HELL NO!! I HATE YOU ALICE."

"Roseyboo you do know that if you forfeit you will have no other choice but to take the dare."

"Fine" I wonder what Alice had planned for the dare.

"Okay in the party in front of everyone you have to declare to everyone and tell Emmett that Brad Pitt is hotter than Emmett and you can't talk to him or have any physical contact with him for a day so it looks like you mean what you said." Oh yeah! Alice was good! Shame I was to miss it.

"No you can't do that! Please, I trusted you as well! I'll do a question" Rose blubbered frantically.

"Not a chance kiddo! Rose it's your turn" The Rose smirked evilly finding justice.

"Vengeance will be mine, so dear Alice have you ever fantasised about the exposed Jasper hale?" Bingo she got her, Alice turned bright red. Ohh how was she going to answer that one?

"Rose I like the way you think" I praised Rose giggling.

"Why thank you Belly boo! Ha, ha"

"Ugh I hate you guys" Alice growled.

"Just answer the question."

"Um...uh..."

"ALICE"

"" Me and Rose heard exactly what she said even thought she said it quickly but we wanted her to say it out loud.

"Did you hear that Bella? I don't know what she said"

"Yeah, I couldn't hear"

"Ughhh I said of course I have Imeanhowcouldyounot"

"Alice we didn't hear the last part"

"I said I mean how could you not?" Alice rolled her eyes looking angry.

"Rose we have to go to decorate the house"

"Oh yeah, Bella just get a few more essentials and we'll be back in like half an hour maybe?" She looked at the watch it said 2. The left and I watched TV whiled I put in an extra few things.

They came back a bit later we messed around for a bit more and played some random games until it got near 6 where i had to drive to the airport. I said goodbyes and they left or the party and I left in a taxi.

Edward's pov

Bring! My alarm clock rang, today was Sunday right? Yesterday went in a blur all I could remember was going out with Tanya and getting a suite, I got up and then fell back down, that was not a good idea – head rush.

I got up brushed my teeth jumped in a shower. Minutes after I put in fresh clean clothes and ran down the stairs, I put the T.V on and then made some pop tarts with coffee. Hmmm....What was I going to do today? I called Emmett...

(Bold = Edward, Italics = Emmett)

"Hello"

"Hey my man Edward what you doing?"

"Nothing I was going to ask you the same, so you want to do something this weekend?"

"Hell yeah let's throw a party in your place as it's huge, it will be so cool you lazy ass!"

"Shut up big dude, yeah I probably will do a party I'm going to have to call Bella's pixie to help me, the party will start around the night?"

"Sure, bye"

"Yeah bye"

I hung up and then started ringing Alice when I had an incoming call. (Edward=Bold, Bella=Italics)

"Hello"

"Hey Bella"

"I have to tell you something"

"Sure"

"Um Edward I'm leaving" What leaving? Where? No way!

"WHERE?!" I asked astounded.

"Phoenix"

"B..Buh...but you got nowhere to stay and why?"

"Yes I do have somewhere to go and I want to go because Renee and Phil are there, I love them so much, I miss the all I'm going to do is hug them and kiss them!" It was them two boys again wasn't it? I mean who was this Renee dude? Her father Charlie was talking about him too, was he some kind of hero to them or was Charlie gay and they both fancied him? My fist clenched up as my jaw tightened.

"How long are you going for?"

"For a couple of days I guess, I going to come back on Tuesday night for the ball."

"Oh..Okay" I hung up the phone without saying goodbye and threw it on the couch . Might as well call Alice to get the party started to get my mind off things... Minutes later I had called Alice to come set the party, she eagerly agreed and told me she would come at two because she had Bella to sort out as she was 'leaving'! But she told me that she would invite people and I should invite whoever I wanted.

I invited Emmett and Jasper they were looking forward to seeing Alice and Rose. At least they had it good. Alice rang the door bell at exactly 2o'clock with Rose on the ball of her heels. They had hand full of decoration and packaged foods they stuffed them in our hands and went back outside...There was more? These girls could shop! After we got everything ready, we were all set to invite everyone. We had swimming pool with food then there was a movie area and you could play on the Xbox, I got to say it looked pretty cool. There was even a dance area with one of those crystal dance balls.

"Amazing!"

"Great!"

"Fantastic!"

"Awesome!"

"Cool!" Me, Emmett, Jasper, Alice and Rose were just standing looking around the house.

"Okay guys I invited a few people and I don't care if you like them or not, there still coming. So I invited Mike, Jacob-"

"WHAT YOU INVITED THAT DOG?" Rose screeched..

"Yeah I agree why him" I butted in, I didn't like him the moment he found an interest in Bella.

"Shut up, I told you I'm not going to uninvited anyone"

"Y'know there's always an exception for every rule" I pointed out thinking she was going to give in but she wasn't.

"Nope, not my rules so what was I saying yeah Chloe is invited so is Cheryl also Rachel oh yeah and Sam , and other guys, it's going to be great!"

Alice and Rose left after they had quickly decorated my house, they said that they would come in the late afternoon when the party stared because they had to help Bella get ready and say their fair wells.

The party was in full swing a couple of hour later and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Alice and Rose had come at 6.30 at the party and had invited everyone.

Alice's pov

The party was awesome. There was music blaring from the speakers and everyone was dancing, eating, or in the pool. I was sitting watching everyone while sipping on some punch. Japer came up to me and then started talking I really fancied him but I didn't think he liked me back.

"Hey"

"Hey"

"So how's Edward?" Huh how should I know?

"How should I know? He's your friend."

"But you're going out with him." WHAT? I'M GOING TO KILL HIM.

"WHAT YOU THINK I'M GOING OUT WITH HIM? HIM? OUT OF ALL POEPLE? ALL THESE DAYS I WAS TRYING TO IMPRESS YOU AND CATCH YOU'RE EYE BUT YOU THINK I LIKE HIM? GOD YOU'RE UNBELIVEBLE!" I was fuming I was about to leave when he grabbed my arm and spun me facing him, he leaned down and gave me a gentle and tender kiss slowly growing fierce, with passion and needy. We broke apart catching our breath when we linked eyes and broke into a smile.

"That was the best damn kiss I ever had!" He rushed the words breathlessly.

"I've always wanted to do that."

"Alice you are so beautiful and clever and I love you, would you do the honour of being my girlfriend?" OMG!

"YES! YES YES YES!! HELL YES!" I jumped on him and he caught me giving me another kiss when there was a loud round of cheers whistles and clapping. Omg there were audience watching us. I closed my eyes enduring the moment. (A/N...Sorry to ruin the story but had to say loved that bit, it seems so cute! Back to the story!)

Edward's pov

Where was Tanya? I invited her and he never turned up what am I going to do? I went out to the swimming pool to see what was going on. I saw mike the one that I despised in the water breathing in to my plastic duck. Hey one needs company. He was screaming things like "The fish is dyeing! Help it's dyeing." He got the duck and himself out of the water and began walking to me explaining what happened.

"He...huh...i mean y...Your fish just died." Ha, ha he seriously needed help.

"Mike fish's can't drown, if they live in water how on earth could they drown? God help you, AND it's a rubber duck, not a fish so if you don't mind I'd rather you put the duck back and escort yourself out of here!" I said with gritted teeth trying not to laugh not to give him the satisfaction that I was laughing at him.

"Oh." He looked back at me then to the duck for several minutes before walking out.

I went back inside to the living room where I went next to Alice when I was just about to ask a question I heard her talking to Rose.

"Rose you have to do it now in front of everyone."

"Do what?" I interrupted now looking intrigued.

"You'll see" The short pixie smirked looking up, whoa she must be short, I mean she was looking up at me. She called Emmett towards her and he came strolling going by Rose's side and holding hands. I saw Rose close her eyes shut tight then opening them looking annoyed.

"Rose you can do the honours." She got on one of the tables so she was higher than everyone, she had got everyone's attention and they all stood quite waiting for the near future. Emmett looked at her smiling thinking she was going to dedicate something to him. What was she doing?

"Uh....Emmy bear I think Brad Pitt is hotter than you and I'm breaking up with you, I don't know what I saw in you to go out with you" WHAT? No way was she getting away with that. She didn't look angry but sad? Then Em got down on his knees grovelling.

"No baby don't do this to me, if you want me to wear heels and tap dance with a dress that's a low as you asked before I'll do it just please don't leave me. I'll even do single ladies by Beyonce the song with it too." Ha imagine Em with heels, now that would just be hilarious. Everyone just cracked up and was nearly rolling on the floor gasping for oxygen.

"Alice I'm going to tell him" Rose huffed. What were they on about? Girls were so confusing.

"NO!" Rose didn't listen and carried on.

"Emmett I do really love you, it was a dare and I wasn't supposed to talk to you or a day to mean what I said, Alice gave me the dare." Well that would explain everything. Emmett got up from the floor and gave a kiss to Rose, EW. When they broke apart he turned to Alice.

"Oh, you are so dead little pixie."

"You have to get through me first" Jasper butted in, were they a thing now?

"What! You're with the short one?"

"Oh yeah she's my baby and she's not short isn't that right sweet cheeks?"

"You made a name for her?"

"Course, she made one for me."

"Yeah it's munchkins" then they were sucking face. EW!

I got out of there and headed for the dining room to get something to drink. I grabbed a bottle of punch and gulped it down. It tasted funny like there was something else in it.

"Hey" I turned around and was met eyes with Tanya, about time.

"Where were you all this time?"

"Oh I had things to do, this party seemed crazy" I nodded my head still drinking. "You know there's vodka mixed in there I saw a dumb blonde put it in, I think he's name was Michael short for Mike. I looked at my drink and then her, until I spit out my drink that was in my mouth and put the cup on the table.

"No wonder it tasted funny."

After a bit I drank and drank I didn't care even thought I had work tomorrow, m vision started to get blurry, I was totally wasted. It was nearing 10 and people were starting to leave.

"Edward I have to go" Tanya called from the hallway. I looked at her and she was putting on her coat.

"Cya later alligator" I said our goodbye, we made it the first day we met, I saw Tan smile.

"In a while crocodile" She left and I slumped on a couch then I passed out, then next time I woke up was in the morning when everything was a mess and it was time for work.

Two days later (Wednesday now)
