LONG A.N (sorry) - First things first...

I'M SO HORRIBLE! I HAVEN'T UPDATED FOR AGES!!!! I'M REALLY SORRY!

I honestly did not mean to do this, I seriously had it all planned out, the whole chapter and everything so that I could write it after my exams but then I got writers block so I decided to postpone it until I came back from holiday but then I was stuck there for 4 weeks instead because of the snow and then when I came back I had even more exams and then after my parents were like you need to revise more to get your grades up thanks to stupid "Parents consultation evening" and so now I'm back for I don't know how long but I hope never to take this long again.

So more stuff to say...

YAY! OVER 500 REVIEWS! :') THIS MAKES MY DAY! –wipes tear away- such a beautiful moment for me. Awww guys :D I love you all immensely. I had so many amazing reviews so I rushed to update. I spent ages replying to each of your reviews just to show you how much I appreciated them :)

Wow, I have a serious Team Gabriel reading the story, Bella Alice Rose, thanks for your idea :D Much appreciated.

Thank you to mnm111494 for your review, lol, I'm so flattered :) (and slightly scared, nah I'm totally random too).

katy3963, and for reviewing like most of my chapters.

Dlpash, I really appreciate all your reviews. I get a review from you for every chapter and don't think I don't notice :D

Finally, rosalie+emmet bella+edward for making sure I updated, seriously I really wanted to reply to your reviews but I couldn't so I'm saying thanks here :)

On the special request of 'Twilight for eternity' I shall put Jacob in the story for a while BUT he will not be part of this love triangle, I made a new triangle and I'm not looking to change it or make it into a love square! Oh and she also asked for cyber desserts again, so I'm putting back on my cyber apron and heading off into my cyber kitchen to make all my reviewers some cyber apple pie, with cyber ice cream if you're feeling adventurous :P

I just have one final thing to say, please don't read this story if you hate it; I don't want reviews just rudely saying that they don't like it; constructive criticism is welcome if it is polite, I won't be upset about it but saying it was dumb like a thousand times (like this person who reviewed) is just dumb as well so just keep it to yourself. If you really hate it so much just end your "suffering" by clicking the little 'x' in the corner because I don't want to hear it. I do try to write and if the humour isn't for you well tough, there are plenty of other good stories.

Okay sorry guys for the rant at the end there, I was just majorly upset by that review, I know I'm probably over-reacting but still it does hurt :'(

Now it is going to get slightly less goofy and random because well I was just trying to have some fun in the last chapters but I want to get back to the plot...mostly :P If you really want to read some really random goofy fun times then check out my other story (well script to be honest) it is totally random and even includes myself and the friend who is helping to write it, CAUTION it is realllly random sometimes :)

RESULT OF POLL!:No Victoria and James, merci for voting :)

Hope you enjoy this chapter an please review :D

Twilight is not mine, The Stephanie Meyer owns all...except my plot, I thought of it myself :)

I do not have a beta so forgive any spelling mistakes and grammar errors; I didn't have the time to check it myself. If anyone wants to beta this story for me please let me know, it would save me so much time to do it myself and I would be so grateful :)

Chapter 14

Conflicts are just the best, NOT

(BPOV)

Alice got up to check what video to put in and place them down after reading the labels on them. "Wait let me go get the rest of them. These are boring."

Alice went to head out of the room but I stopped her. "Not so fast Alice, I'm coming to make sure you don't pick up something that embarrasses me."

Alice sighed, "Fine."

Rosalie got up too, "I'm not going to be left here alone with these idiots."

Emmett smiled, "Love you too babe."

Rosalie rolled her eyes and followed Alice and I out of the room.

"So..." Rosalie began as she sat down on Alice's bed.

I turned to her, "So?"

"So how are things with the gorgeous French beaux?" She asked.

"Good." I answered.

She narrowed her eyes at me. "Just good?"

"Umm, Very good?"

"Argh!" Alice ran towards me and held me by the shoulders. "What she means is, are you thinking of breaking up with him and going back to Edward yet?"

"Okay...I only just started going out with him, it's going good. Very good." I added staring pointedly at Rosalie even though Alice was still clutching onto my shoulder, I stepped back out of her small reach. "Stop staring at me like that!" I exclaimed as they continued to look at me as if I was hiding something. When they still continued I sighed and headed into Alice's bathroom to avoid their probing looks.

I stood in front of the sink and splashed some water on my face.

I was so fed up of people constantly trying to immerse themselves into my life whenever the mood struck.

I focused on breathing in and out, trying to calm myself. They were my friends they meant no harm by trying to help me.

Well that's what I thought until I heard Rosalie and Alice talking outside in hushed voices like the other day.

I could hear Rosalie's smug voice, "See, it looks like our little Bella won't be going back to your sad excuse of a brother any time soon."

"Rosalie, shut the hell up, Bella and Edward belong together and you know it, stop trying to keep them separate." Alice sounded furious. It wasn't as if Alice was never angry, she did that often but she was never angry with Rosalie.

I moved closer to the door to hear them better.

"Oh give me a break, he treated her like shit and you're defending him and trying to get the two of them together!" Rosalie shouted.

"Well why the hell shouldn't they, they are both happy when they are together and anyone can see they love each oth..."

"Stop be such a bloody romantic Alice, Edward can only love himself and Bella is too head-over-heels for him that she doesn't care about anything he has done to her before! She never knows what's good for herself; she is a danger magnet."

To say I was insulted would be an understatement; did I really come off that desperate and clumsy?

"He does love her!" Alice screamed at her.

"Maybe, maybe not, but I won't let her let him drag her down again into that pit of despair."

"Wow Rose, I didn't know you were so dramatic." I could hear Alice's sarcasm.

Their whispered conversation was clearly not so quite anymore. They were screaming so loudly that I was surprised no one from downstairs came up yet t check on them.

"Just stop trying to push Edward and Bella together or I'll..."

"You'll what Rose?! Fight me?! Give me a break; you can clearly see that Bella and Gabriel don't belong together..."

"And you can see that Edward is no good for her either! Plus you liked Gabriel before, what changed Alice?!"

"I do...It's just...that....it's..." Alice stuttered.

"What? I can't understand you? Gabe can speak better English than you can!"

"Argh. You're so bitchy, no wonder people call you an ice cold bitch." I flinched back from the harsh words and they weren't even aimed at me.

"Woah, breaking news, never heard of that before." Rosalie replied in a bored tone. "Maybe you could think of something more original by using that thing called a dictionary, might teach you some English. Ever thought your aversion to Gabe might be the fact that the other person fighting for Bella's heart is your brother?"

"You know that isn't true, I just want her to be happy! Unlike you! You're just trying to get back at Edward for some weird reason!"

"No, it's because I watched that bastard destroy Bella, everyday, it killed me to watch it happen and now I see her happy once again and you want to change that! Why?!"

"Oh don't go all sappy on me Rose, you never been the one for romance, don't pretend you care now. Just back off and leave Bella alone!"

"You first!"

I moved away from the door, refusing to listen to anymore, however their shouts followed me as I sat down at the edge of the bathtub.

I couldn't believe the two of them had been trying to manipulate me into dating two different people.

I felt so betrayed but another part of me was kind of worried into how far they would go to try to help me. They would risk their own friendship for me. How bad was it for them to watch me while Edward broke my heart.

I couldn't stand their muffled shouts anymore and stepped out of the bathroom to still hear them arguing, their backs were turned to me but they must of heard me since they turned around to stare at me, faces red and angry.

Their expressions quickly turned remorse as they probably saw the sadness etched upon my face.

"Bella, you didn't by any chance hear what we said?" Alice asked me worriedly.

I was just about to answer but Rosalie spoke before I could, "Of course she did, you were screaming like a damn banshee."

"Shutup Rosalie! Just shut up for once in your life!" Alice screamed at her.

I quickly ran out of the room before hearing anymore of their conversation, it was so painful to hear them screaming at each other. It was supposed to be us against the world not us against the other.

I could clearly feel the hot streaks of my tears running down my cheeks.

I headed down the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. I held its cold surface against my cheeks, hoping it's coldness would soothe the boiling emotions within me.

I sat down on one of the stools and rested my head in my hands upon the counter.

Soon I could hear the shouting again, surprisingly it was not from upstairs with Rose and Alice who I could still hear screaming at each other faintly, it was the guys. I could clearly hear their voices rising and falling from where I sat.

I heard Emmett sigh loudly, "Damn it Edward. Why won't you listen to me? Just leave her the heck alone. She doesn't need you!"

"But I need her." I could recognise Edward's melodic voice and it broke my heart that he sounded so anguished.

Who were they talking about?

"Listen, you messed up, give her time. Don't interfere and ruin things further. I don't want to see her hurt and it's very likely that you will."

"How many times do I have to say this, I don't want to hurt her!" Edward shouted back at Emmett.

"You may not want to but you probably will. It's better to just leave it." Emmett stated calmly.

Again, I didn't want to hear what was said, I was tired of eavesdropping on other people's conversations and I was tired of listening to the people I love fight amongst themselves. I knew I was probably missing something important but I didn't have it in me to care.

I picked up my bag, trying to block out what was going on around me; I had so much to process that I just felt myself withdrawing within myself, stopping myself from letting outside world in until I fully understood the emotions within myself.

I got into my truck and sped away as fast as my truck would allow knowing full well that they probably heard me leave. I would think about what to say to them later but right now I wanted to focus on my feelings about them interfering in my life.

I would be stupid not to realise that Emmett and Edward were talking about me but I didn't know where Jasper stood with all of this, probably on Alice's side. Argh, on sides?! We weren't even in an argument, well not that I knew of, I just can't get my head wrapped around the fact that they were secretly pushing me towards a guy, it was totally unjustifiable and I didn't think I could forgive them for it. Great, just another thing I can't forgive, I have got to get a list for this, maybe start a club because the members and reasons just seem to keep growing in number.

My thoughts jolted to a halt as I pulled up outside my house to see Gabriel standing by his car waiting.

I felt a jolt of happiness at seeing him but also sadness, I knew I had to end it with him now because our relationship was just a problem with my friends, there was no point in being with someone if it caused issues with the other people I loved but that didn't mean I was going to break up with him in the false hopes to be with Edward. Oh gosh, why don't I just save myself the hassle and join a convent and become a nun, yeah that would solve everything.

While I was seriously contemplating this, I walked over towards Gabriel. He looked gorgeous and his fair hair seemed to stand out even brighter against his black jeans and t-shirt.

He smiled at me but he seemed to be slightly nervous. Maybe he knew what I was going to say. I was slightly happy that this relationship was still new, that there hadn't been much time for any strong feelings to grow.

I inhaled deeply and greeted him. "Bonjour Gabriel." I kissed his cheek.

He smiled more brightly at my use of French, "Bonjour Bella, I have to be somewhere soon but I wanted to talk to you about something."

"Sure, I need to talk to you about something as well, give me a second and let me leave a note for Charlie, we can just drive in your car."

He looked at me confused. "It's fine, we can talk here."

"Yeah but I'd have some fresh air, can we go to the beach in La Push." Honestly, I just didn't want to be here, where everyone would inevitably come after they finish arguing with each other.

Gabriel didn't argue with me. "That's fine, I'll wait in my car." He smiled and then turned to his car.

I quickly ran in, dropped my bag, wrote my note and ran back out all within two minutes, I was eager to put as much space as I could between them and myself.

We were both silent in the car, nothing was said apart from the occasional directions from me and very soon we were pulling up to the beach.

Getting out of the car I inhaled the cold salty taste of the air and smiled at its familiarity, Jake and I used to spend so much time at the beach together, I hadn't seen him in so long since he and Leah became a couple and my own sudden reclusiveness. I missed him.

Walking with Gabriel, we walked over the sand until I sat down patting the space beside me. He sat down gracefully and seemed to be even more nervous.

It was silent until we both started to speak at the same time.

We laughed and I offered him to begin speaking first.

"Well," He began nervously, "I'm going to get straight to the point; I'm going back to France."

I looked at him shocked.

Well this works, I thought to myself, now I don't have to technically break up with him. But seriously how cliché was this.

"Just for a while though. I'm leaving in two weeks and well I was wondering if you would ummm....would you like to come with me?"

Oh my god!

A.N- And did you expect that last bit? Did youuuu? Please, please don't get angry about the last bit saying OMG, Bella should dump him now, give me a chance :/

Tell me what you think by reviewing.

There are more things to come, did you really think the drama will end here? Psshhht, NO :D

Yes, yes there was a bit of Alice and Rose drama, it was bound to happen eventually but they will be friends in no time, I mean come on, it's Alice and Rosalie :)

Now I promise I will update soon, 2 weeks tops (I hope), I'm going start the next chapter in the weekend because I'm awesomely busy this week, I usually finish the same day I start but we shall see.

So tell me what would you do if you were in Bella's position? Dump him? Go with him? Let me know!
