A/N: So I know it has been a while, but if you have me on author Alert you know why. I have started a Workshop Project Team Beta's Smut University. Sounds funny right? But it's a real workshop and they help you better your writing in the physical department. So they have assignments every week and I've been focusing a lot on that so I honestly apologize for letting it monopolize my time, but between that and work I was used up. But I'm going to try harder to Balance it better, I wrote this chapter before I'm doing my homework for them so I chose you guys first my lovely readers. Now I admit this may not be the best chapter I've ever done because honestly I didn't want to write this scene it was just not appealing to my mind and fingers but I pushed it out because the end is important. So enough of my babbing enjoy the chapter :)) ~MissFJU~
Ps. if you want to check out the work I do for them I have it under a new story on my profile
PTB S University go check it out :))

We all hung out at Tropical Mango for a little while longer before we headed back to the hotel, Alice followed Rose and I back to our suit and Jas and Edward headed back to theirs.
It was still fairly early so we wasted time panting our toenails, doing facials ourselves and them listening quietly to me boo love with Keith when he called to check on me. I was slightly upset because Keith said he had a meeting and couldn't join us for our little outing tonight, be he promised to make it up to me in more ways than one.
Time rolled around for us to get officially ready, tonight I chose a simple purple off the shoulder dress that came down to mid-thigh with a black waist belt and black heels. Rose chose an Emerald tube dress with nude heels; the color almost reminded me of Edwards's eyes. What the fuck now I'm examining his eye color? Weird!
Alice wore a hot pink baby doll dress with yellow wedges to match her yellow clutch, we all looked hot. I opted to let my hair air dry after my shower so it was in soft crinkly waves, rose opted for a high bun that showed off her fabulous bone structure and Alice's short pixie cut was intact.
We headed to the lobby to meet the guys, when we stepped off the elevator there they were. When my eyes connected with Edwards I thought I would faint. In his dark purple button down with the sleeves rolled up mid-way, dark wash jeans that hugged his muscular frame as his wild sex hair sprouted from all different directions like it always did he looked better then something to eat.
Done with my ogling I looked him in his face but lucky for me he was too busy returning the favor to notice. The fact that Edward couldn't keep his eyes off me sent a slight blush to my cheeks.
"Match much" Rose elbowed me, my cheeks got redder. We honestly looked like we planned this I chuckled softly to myself.
"Get out my head Miss Swan" Edward teased.
"Most of the time girls get dressed before guys so I'd bet my money I picked this out before you did" I smirked.
"Don't be so sure" he smiled.
"Alright lets go I'm starving" Alice ranted.
"For someone so small you sure can eat" I teased.
"I love food what can I say beside thank you Esme for high metabolism running in our family gene pool" she shrugged.
We all headed to another hotel across town and dined in their restaurant, too fancy for my blood but it was Alice's pick.
She claimed she picked this place because where we were going tonight was right around the corner in walking distance.
We finished up our meal fairly quickly and headed to club "Midnight" it was packed to capacity, the music was bumping and that was just my perception from outside of the club.
Rose's father was known worldwide so once again we did not have to wait to gain entrance.
We walked in and it was so different from the clubs back home, no better or worse just different.
It was very flashy, sparkling silver everywhere was loud and boisterous and lacked a theme, but the fact that it was abstract appealed.
"Drink first!" Rose cheered dragging me and Alice to the bar.
"Yeah I think I will get one too" Jas said and Edward nodded in agreement.
We all went to the bar, not trying to get wasted at all I opted for just a strawberry daiquiri this time.
"Good choice" Edward said.
"Thanks" I smiled.
"I would order one for myself except it wouldn't look to manly" he laughed running his fingers through his hair.
"That it wouldn't, but you can have a sip of mine and play it off like you were just taste testing" I offered.
I handed it to him and he took a sip and handed it back.
"I love strawberries" he moaned.
"Me too" I smiled.
We all grabbed our drinks and headed up to VIP and found a cushy booth in the back.
"Okay time for birthday presents" I sang.
Everyone put various boxes all shapes and sizes on the table except for me, I was surprised to see even Edward got her something.
So we started with Alice and worked our way around, Alice gave Rose a diamond tennis bracelet that said friendship on it they both teared up on that one. Jasper gave her some Channel boots, we all looked at him like what the fuck? What do you know about Channel boots? But he just shrugged it off.
Edward gave her some Dolce & Gabanna Diamond incrusted sun glasses. She squealed in delight I did too the glassed where hot. They were pink tinted with tiny diamonds in the corner.
"Who knew you had taste Cullen?" she smirked; I swear I saw his cheeks redden a little then it went away. Awww who knew Edward and I shared the same embarrassing feature.
"Okay Bells I see no box or anything what's going on here you didn't forget did you" she teased, because she knew good and damn well I didn't forget.
"Uh uh but mine was too big for a box but it has a bow though." I smiled
I sent a text on my phone and a minute later Emmett emerged with a big red shinny bow attached to his waist.
I swear I've never heard Rose scream so loud in her life. She jumped up out of her seat and attacked Em wrapping her legs around his waist not caring she had on a dress.
"What? How?...Bella" she said with tears welling up in her eyes.
"Happy birthday Rose" I smiled.
"Hey Birthday Rosie" Em said kissing her on the lips passionately.
Averting my gaze from my two best friends kissing I looked back to our table.
"Way to show us all up Bella" Jasper mocked.
"Don't hate" I said putting up my hand to him.
"Alright present times over lets go dance!" Alice chanted grabbing Jaspers arm and leading him away.
I shrugged got up and Edward followed,
"So umm…you want to…um dance?...you don't have to… I mean just until you find another partner… its no big deal if you don't… I don't know why I asked…I" he stammered.
"Edward just shut up and spin me" I said grabbing his hand and heading towards the dance floor.
Time flew by as I was in Edwards's arms, he was twirling me and dipping me, of course with my klutzy ways I tripped a few times but it added to the fun.
I was having so much fun it was almost like no one else was here.
I can't believe all this time this was what laid beneath the surface, a fun carefree guy.

I turned her around and grabbed her hips, grinding to the beat of the music as she threw her hands up in the air and swayed with me. If you would have told me a year ago I would have been grinding against Bella Swan in a night club in LA of all places I would have laughed my ass off, now there's nowhere else I'd rather be.
This whole evening has just been amazing. I don't even know how to describe it I never imagined life could feel this good and I could be surrounded by real genuine people. And Bella, I keep asking myself how I never saw her clearly back in Forks, because I was an asshole who was only interested in booze and boobs.
My emotions are all mixed up right now, I don't know if I like her, like really like her or my guilt is clouding my emotions. Honestly I don't know how I feel the only thing I know for sure is I want to get to know this little spit fire that's currently in my arms just a little bit better.
"May I cut in?" a voice said.
Damn, spoke to soon.
I looked up to see Keith Johanson looking at me and Bella strangely. She immediately dropped my hands and rushed to hug him.
I won't even lie and say it didn't hurt a little.
"Baby what are you doing here?" she kissed him.
"Well come to find out that the agency trying to sign me have similar taste to Alice because they picked this place.
"Well I'm glad you're here "she said kissing him again.
Having enough of their sickening love fest I left them and headed to the bar.
I had another drink or two and danced with a few more girls, none as fun as Bella of course, and then I looked at my watch and it was ten past twelve.
I looked for everyone but they were nowhere in sight I just texted them I'm heading out.
I walked out the club and went past the long line of people still waiting to get in in search of a cab.
"Hey wait up!" I heard someone call behind me.
"Bella?" I asked.
"Who else" she laughed.
"Oh… I just thought you would stay behind with your boyfriend" I said bitterly.
"Ugh! Don't bring him up he left and I'm ready to go home" she sighed.
"My bad" I said scolding myself eternally.
"It's alright, we sharing a cab?" she asked.
"Sure"
Right on time a yellow cab pulled up, asked us our destination and we took off.
The ride back to the hotel wasn't too long but long enough Bella's head was resting on my shoulder as her eyes were fighting sleep.
When we arrived I helped Bella out the cab and led her into the hotel we made it to the elevator's and my floor came first.
"Okay well I guess this is good night…" I said, turning away.
"Wait actually…" she called after me I became excited for a moment.
"Yes…?" I asked.
"My pajamas and bed wear are in my father's room the bag is too heavy for me can you help me get it?" she asked.
"Sure" I shrugged.
"He's probably sleeping right now so we can just slip in get it and slip out" she told me as she slid in the passkey
We entered the room but instead of silence we heard laughter.
"My dad doesn't know anyone in L.A" she whispered to me.
"Maybe he met somebody" I told her.
"Maybe, let's go check it out my bags in the living room anyway.
We walked in and it was something I never expected to see, there was clothes splattered everywhere and nothing covering Charlie swan and his woman of the night but a sheet that the woman was currently under.
"Dad!" Bella shrieked
"Bella…" he said just as surprised.
The woman came from under the covers just as bare as Charlie was.
"Mom!"
A/N: Mwahaha! So who saw that coming? I left you all a million and one hints yet no one guessed it guess I slid something else past you :))
