B POV
"What about this one Bella?" my eyes almost fell out of my sockets as I looked at the skimpy costume Alice held for me to see. It was a harley Quinn costume that barely looked to be long enough for a ten year old, now don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong wanting to look sexy on Halloween, BUT that just wasn't my cup of tea.
Shaking my head furiously at her. "No Ali, I refuse to wear that. Plus I'm not super big on Harley" Alice huffed impatiently and looked over at Rose, she smiled and stretched her hand out. "If Bella doesn't want it, I will take it. . . I think I would be a very sexy Harley" Rose said smiling wide, taking it in her hand she walked into the dressing room to change.
Alice spun to look at me and glare. "Bella, we need to find you the perfect costume" she sighed frustrated looking around the costume store as if an outfit was just going to pop out and say pick me. We had been shopping for three hours, and I had yet to decide on a character, unlike me Alice had decided to go cliche and dress up after Alice in the wonderland. Her outfit consisted of a blue corset dress with a tulle skirt underneath making it flare out like a ballerina, a lace apron, white knee stockings and a black bow with a blond wig.
Honestly I think her outfit was perfect for her, she was going to look absolutely stunning I was sure of it. She had decided to also pick Jasper a Mad hatter outfit to match her theme, which consisted of black striped pants, a white long sleeve paired with a black vest matching black scarf bow, and a Velvet burgundy Blazer. She also picked out white face paint a red curly wig, a topper hat and let's not forget an orange and purple socks.
She smiled over at me "Jasper will love his outfit" she promised me, I smiled at her. "Oh I'm sure he will?" I said sarcastically making her roll her eyes at me. "Now now Bella we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves here we still have to find an outfit for you to wear" she said evilly, which made me instantly regret opening my mouth. "Alice I can be a ghost or a pumpkin-" she put her hand up to cut me off. "Bella no one finds a pumpkin. sexy . . unless you're Ted Mosby. Now shut up and let me pick you something cute" she was about to walk away when Rose stepped out of the dressing room.
My jaw dropped, was it even fair for someone to be that beautiful really. She had tied her blond hair into pigtails and was wearing the red and blue shorts with fishnet leggings underneath, a white crop tee that read 'daddy's girl' across the chest and black bootie boots.
"I think I look great don't y'all agree" she smirked, Alice squealed beside me running over to Rose. "Oh yes you do! Em is gonna lose his shit when he sees you in it, are you going to get him a joker's outfit?" Alice ask excitedly.
Rose scoffed at her "of course I am!" she exclaimed heading back to the changing room, as soon as she disappeared Alice spun to me and gave me a mischievous smile. Oh God no, I always hated when Alice gave me that look.
"What are you up to pixie?" she shrugged and looked away. "Bella I have no idea what you're talking about" I squinted my eyes trying to figure out what she might be hiding. "Alice Cullen what are you planning in that little head of yours" she shrugged again.
"Don't worry Bella, but just know you don't have to worry about a halloween outfit anymore. Because I have found you the perfect one" my eyebrows raised suspiciously at her. "Okay what is it?" she laughed innocently.
"Sorry Bella is a surprise not going to know until that day" she said waving me off, my eyes widened as she said that. There was no way in hell I would wear something without looking at it, what if I look completely terrible or-
"Bella stop overthinking it, trust me I would never dress you in anything but something fabulous. Trust me you will love it. . . now come on i'm starving let's grub so we can head to this awesome party at your friend Jacob's place" Rose popped out of the dressing room holding her costume and nodding her head in agreement with Alice.
"Yeah B, trust Alice on that outfit. . . she did the same to me the first time I went to her party. . . anyways I texted the boys about the party and they will most likely join us later tonight. . . I hope that won't be a huge deal with Jacob" Rose said hooking her arms to Alice and me as we headed to the food court.
"I don't think so but it's not a party it's a bonfire" Rose and Alice rolled their eyes at me "trust us Bella it's a bonfire party" I shrugged " hey guys. . . um but will Ed-" I sighed, crap was it smart to have Edward at the party? Specially after what happened in our room and our conversation and-
"Hello earth to Bella!" I flinched as I realized Alice and Rose were frowning at me, I smiled at them. "I'm sorry guys I zoned there for a minute"
"Yeah B didn't notice there. . . anyways like I was saying if Edward coming to the party bothers you so much i'll just ask him not to come-" I shook my head at Rose, that was not necessary, if anything that would be childish.
"No it's fine I just- anyways let's eat!" Alice looked worried for a minute for decided not to press instead changing the subject. "So after lunch let's pick an outfit for tonight and then head to my house and get ready because we only have four hours and we need to look perfect" with that we were off to one of the lines to purchase food.
After an hour of looking for outfits we finally found perfect ones- Alice's words not mine- we began to head back to Fork to Ali's house. I texted Charlie to let him know I would be over at Jake's for a bonfire. . . surprised my dad was more than thrilled.
Getting ready with Rose and Alice was like being a live barbie doll, they had curled my hair and even convinced me to wear make up. Since it was October it meant it was a cold night I opted for leggings paired with a long beige turtleneck sweater and flat beige knee high boots finishing it with a black jacket. If I said so myself I looked really decent, I turned to look at Alice and she looked beautiful.
He usual spiky hair was left flat coming down to her chin she wore a short black skater skirt, black tights a red knitted sweater paired with a fluffy scarf and black booties, she smiled at me. Rose emerged from the bathroom looking breathtaking as always; Her blond locks were tied into a high ponytail, she wore a white long sleeve shirt, black jeans a green army jacket and red rain boots.
"Great! Let's head to this party" I frowned at Ali "what about the guys?" she shrugged at me grabbing her bag. "They'll meet us there don't worry" once downstairs we decided to ride on Rose's red BMW, the girls were super excited to finally go to La Push they claimed no one from Forks high really got invited to parties down there.
"Wow this looks awesome!" Alice said practically running out of the car as we pulled up by the lake, it was definetly a sight to see. There was tikki torches lit up leading the way up to the burning bonfire, people were standing around with solo cups chatting up with each other. A huge speaker played some upbeat song I had never heard before but made you want to start dancing on the spot, Alice and Rose gushed excitedly pulling me towards the crowd. Our feet began caking with sand, but for the first time Alice was so happy she didn't even notice. I spotted Jake talking to Seth and a beautiful dark haired girl who glared at me as she saw me waving, I flinched what was her deal? Jake smiled brightly walking our way while Seth followed behind.
"Hey you made it!" he said picking me up into a big hug, it felt odd at first but I hugged him back. "Hi Bella!" Seth yelled giving me a hug also, I laughed and turned to see Rose and Alice watching me curiously. "Jake, Seth this is Alice and Rose my best friends" Jake and seth barely had time to turn to them before Alice attacked them.
"Oh my God is soooo nice to meet you guys! Thank you for inviting us to this sick party, I have always wanted to come to one of this and oooh-" Jake and Seth's eyes grew wide at Ali's hyperness, Rose rolled her eyes. "Hi i'm Rose and as you can see my friend here is a little odd, anyways thanks for having us. . . I hope you don't mind we invited our boyfriends here they'll should be here soon" she said calmly.
"Oh of course not, the more the merrier. And I'm glad you guys are excited to be here- well you've met Seth I'll introduce you to the rest of the group" we walked with Jake and Seth towards the small crowd around the bonfire.
"Hey guys this is Bella and her friends Rose and Alice" everyone turned to smile and wave except for that dark haired girl who looked annoyed that we had showed up. "This is Sam his girlfriend Emily, Paul his girl Claire, Quil, Embry and Leah, Seth's sister" so the girl who had been glaring at us was Leah, she was Seth's sister, hmm wonder what her problem was?
I didn't have time to dwell on it for too long, everyone began chatting with us and Jake got us all a drink while the music began booming louder. Soon we were dancing to the beat of the music, long forgotten the glares Leah was throwing or the fact that Edward would be here any minute now.
Rose and Alice were on their third drink dancing with each other around the fire with the other couples while I sat on the edge nursing my first drink still in my hands, Jake walked over to me smiling wide.
"What's going on Bella? You're having fun?" I smiled at him "oh yeah for sure" he frowned. "Really Bella because you look like you're at my grandma's retirement party instead of a bonfire party, and you still haven't even taken a sip from the drink a got you earlier" I blushed embarrassed he had caught me.
"Sorry Jake I don't mean to be a party pooper but Ali and Rose are on their fifth drink and someone has to drive and-" he put his and up to stop me. "Bella relax, we all crash at Sam's dad reserve motel it's only half a mile from here we usually walk there if we're too hammered to drive. Plus Seth is not allowed to drink he's way too young so he play's dj, Now relax and sip-" I was about to refuse but he shook his head. "C'mon Bella it's Saturday night let's have some fun" I smiled and shook my head, he was right I needed to stop overthinking everything what was the worst that could happen. I decided to chug my drink down coughing when the liquor hit the back of my throat.
"C'mon let's dance" he said pulling me up we joined the rest dancing around the fire to the beat of the music, when I saw them pulling up. Jasper, Edward and Emmett getting of the monster jeep and walking over to us, Alice and Rose stumble over to them, while I tried to avoid Edward's eyes as he followed them our way.
Jake did not notice their arrival he kept twirling me to the music. I saw Emmett and Jasper grab a drink and join the girls dancing around the fire, while Edward stood by the edge sipping on his drink and glaring at Jake and I.
I gulped this was not good, why couldn't I just stop feeling whatever I was feeling around him. I decided to ignore his stares and focus on whatever Jake was saying to me, looking up at him grinning at me. "Let's grab another drink B" he tugged me towards the small table they had set up with bottles of alcohol I had never had before. He poured a two shots and handed me one, my eyes widened at him.
"Jake I can-" he cut me off and smiled at me softly. "Just one B, it'll help you relax" I stared at the shot nervously, fuck it tossing the burning liquid back Jake hauled loudly making everyone look our way. "Shots everyone!" and that's how one shot turned to three while everyone also joined us except Seth who was too young to drink and Edward who still stood glaring at Jake and I.
Even Leah was letting herself lose and was dancing with Claire, Alice was practically dry humping Jasper on the other side Rose and Em were making out passionately, Jake pulled me to him as Seth played a slow song.
Clearly I had way too many drinks because my mind was foggy and I felt like I was floating, as Jake pulled me close to him, he hummed to the song swaying us to the beat of the music. But despite my attempt at shutting my mind off, I couldn't help but be even more aware of Edward, he still stood frozen on his spot looking -no glaring daggers- our way.
But at this moment my mind was too drunk to even dwell on his mood, I focused back on Jake who smiled at me and ran his thumb over my cheek. . . he began leaning to me. . .oh God was he going to kiss me. . .but before my thoughts had a chance to run wild-
"Mind if I cut in" Jake and I jumped back startled, his voice was firm but the look on his face look murderous, Jake frowned confused but nodded at him he looked over at me to make sure it was ok to be left alone with him.
Honestly at this point my mind was swimming in alcohol so sure why the fuck not, I shrugged at him and he gave me a hug before walking away giving Edward a cold look. I turned to face him, not fully meeting his eyes he took me in his arms before I had time to protest and began swaying to the music.
My body could feel the electric current running through my body as he held by the waist, I didn't dare look at his face despite feeling his eyes burning holes at the top of my head. He didn't say anything but held me close to his body as the song came to and end, I looked around and noticed that Sam and Emily were gone, Seth, Quil and Embry were also gone. Alice and Jasper had disappeared a while ago while Rose was now straddling Em over his jeep. . . gross the last thing I need right now is picture my best friends getting it on with their boyfriends.
I couldn't take the tension between Edward and me so I let go off him and walked over to the drink table opening a bottle and taking a swig of whatever it was. I felt him walk up behind me, my mind was clouding even more but I did not care I hated feeling like this. . . I was not one to drown my feelings in alcohol, actually before tonight I was absolutely terrified to drink, oh how the tables have turned. . . look at me now.
"Bella you need to stop drinking-" I laughed at him surprising both of us, this was the first time he directly talked to me tonight and all he had to say was 'stop drinking' I scoffed who did he think he was. "Shut up Edward and go crawl of whatever hole you came out- stop shitting on my party" he looked shocked for a minute but composed himself, I took another chug of the bottle but Edward snatched it out of my hands.
"Bella you're drunk, you need to stop, come on i'll get you home" he tried to hold my hand but I slapped his hand away, what was he my father. "What the fuck Edward, lea-leaveme alone-" I slurred walking away from him, everything was beginning to spin, Edward followed behind me.
"Get away from me, you areconfusing me- Ilikeyou bu-but Icannot" I said slurring my words, he sighed annoyed, where the heck was Alice and Rose- oh right screwing their boyfriends brains. "Bella you're wasted come on I need to get you home" he began tugging me towards his car, which was a mistake because I ended tripping over my feet and scraping my knee against a rock making a hole on my leggings.
I could see my knee beginning to bleed, great that's gonna leave a mark! But I didn't care I needed to get away from him. "Shit come on Bella" I stumbled again but this time he caught me, my brain was so foggy I could not concentrate.
"Fuck it" he said and he began to carry me bridal style towards his car and all I could concentrate was on his cologne, I buried my face on his chest "you like being in my arms baby" he said smirking which brought my drunk brain back to matters on hand. "Hey you! Put-put me do-dooown!" I slurred, he sighed annoyed sitting me in the passenger seat. "Stop being childish Bella we need to get you home- fuck I cannot take you home like this Charlie will kill me- fuuuuck!" he said tugging his hair, I began to giggle.
I couldn't help it he looked so fucking cute, he looked annoyed at me, walking to the drivers side he glared at me. "This is not funny Swan I am not your babysitter- shit" he backed the car up and began driving to who knows where. I began fidgeting with the radio until he told me to stop, after a couple of minutes I began dozing off.
"Bella wake up, Bella we're here-" my brain was foggy, and everything around me was spinning. I opened my eyes and finally met his beautiful green eyes, he looked worried and something else that my drunk brain couldn't recognize. "Why are you so pweaty" I giggled, his eyes widened at this and he cracked a smile. "Come on Swan" he tugged me towards the garage door, into a beautiful home, my brain didn't have too much time to dwell on it as Edward pulled me upstairs.
I began giggling as I stumbled over my own feet, he sighed frustrated "Bella we need to be quiet or my parents are going to hear us" he explained like he was talking to a child which only made me laugh harder. "Edwaaard doesn't want to get in trouble by moooomy and daaady!" he groaned and carried me once again bridal style up the rest of the stairs.
"Ooh you smell really really good" he smiled as we walked into a dark room, he laid me in the soft bed, my brain was still too fogged up and everything was beginning to spin again. Edward came back with a first aid kit, I looked at him confused. "For your knee, remember you scraped it" I groaned and fell back into the soft bed.
After a few minutes he was done, he walked into another room, I took my boots off and pulled my leggings off scraping them to the side I was about to remove my sweater when Edward came back in.
"Bella what the fick are you doing?" he whispered yelled, I looked at him confused. "Getting-" hiccup "comforta-" another hiccup "comfortable Edwaaard" I slurred, he walked over to me and stopped me. "Bella stop, you need to put your-" he didn't have time to finish as I pulled him in for a kiss- I don't know what possess me, yeah okay it was definitely the alcohol doing all the work.
He was shocked at first but returned the kiss eagerly after a minute, and soon we were making out furiously, his hands began rubbing my thighs, God I don't know if it was because I was drunk but it felt so good, and my stomach felt like it was filled with butterflies. His hands began to move under my sweater, his thumbs running over my flat stomach, which made me moan embarrassingly, but my brain could care less right now.
He laid me back while I spread my legs and he crawled between me, his thumbs still running through my stomach. "Ugh Edward" I moaned as he kissed my neck and going back to my lips, God why didn't people tell me making out was this great. My hands began going under his shirt and taking it off him and he groaned but before I could do anything else he pulled back, my eyes felt heavy and my brain was cloudy, I could see him straining himself.
"Bella we can't do this, not like this. . . you're drunk" I felt myself frowning, was Edward Cullen saying no to sleeping with me? Wow way to go drunk Bella fucking everything up.
Edward saw the hurt in my eyes and sighed frustrated as he sat beside me, my eyelids were beginning to get heavier. "Look Bella it's not that I don't want to trust me I do- I" he sighed frustrated, my head was beginning to feel just like my eyelids and it was starting to get hard to understand what he was saying.
"Bella I can't take advantage of your state. . . even if I-" he sighed "Bella there's something I have to tell you- I did this thing-" but my mind was gone and slowly I began to doze off not listening to whatever he had to say.
Oh how I wish I had listened to him back then. . .
A/N: yay another chapter finished okay this was a looooong chapter it took me 3 hours to write so please drop me off a review, so this had a lot of info and a little bit of a sexy scene lol if you consider that a sexy scene. So Edward was seen in a different light? What do you guys think is he being genuine? Wonder what he was going to say to Bella? Drunk Bella? Was she annoying? Oooh Jacob was in this scene I promise he will not be that super uber annoying puppy lover, he'll be a very important character in this story.
Anyways this was one of my longest chapters yet! I don't know how soon I'll update like I said my husband's family is going through a very hard time right now so please keep us in your prayers. I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter I will try to update soon.
