Chapter Five-Party Animal
Bella's POV
We were getting ready for the big party. It was going to be great. Sam had a date with this guy called Jason, and obviously I was going with Ryan. We were all going in Jason's car.
Sam was already ready. She looked fantastic. She was wearing a bright red boob tube that showed off her stomach, and a pair of super tight, super short denim shorts with a pair of red stilettos. She had curled her hair so it fell in beautiful ringlets around her face and down her shoulders.
She had done her own makeup. She was wearing eyeliner, and a fair bit of mascara, with blood red lipstick and a bit of clear, shimmery eye shadow with a hint of blush. I was wearing the same sort of makeup, but with more blush, a little less lipstick and eye shadow.
I had on a black mini skirt that was mini in the extreme. It only just covered my butt, with an inch to spare. I was wearing a boob tube too; it was red with a few black roses printed on. My shoes were my favourite. They were knee-high, black platform boots. I had curled my hair the same as Sam, but it didn't have quite the same effect.
"You look fab", Sam giggled. I gave a weak smile. "You too", I said. "C'mon, I think Jason and Ryan are here", Sam's eyes lit up. She ran down the stairs and quickly pulled the door open. Ryan was leaning on the door frame, and Jason was standing with his hands on his hips.
Both their eye's widened when they saw us. Ryan grinned, and Jason just put his arm around Sam's waist and kissed her cheek. She turned her head so it touched her lips. I rolled my eyes and Ryan groaned. "Please, spare us", he muttered. He held my hand in his and led us to the car.
I quickly gave Jason a once-over. He seemed decent enough. He had light brown hair, darker brown eyes and tanned skin. He had a fairly average build, and he was overall pretty…normal. He was nothing special. He seemed to have a genuine interest in Sam though. I wondered how long they had known each other.
We got into the car, and when we arrived at the party I was actually excited. I could hear the music blaring and through the windows I saw the disco lights flashing. Sam had told me that the guy who lived at the house, Matt, his parents were away for the week.
Inside people were dancing, drinking, eating and kissing. Most looked like they were having fun. I noticed one girl, handing out drinks. She had dead straight, jet black hair. It hung loosely around her pale face, and I caught a glimmer of green eyes. "Who's that"? I wondered aloud. I noticed Ryan rolled his eyes.
"Our older sister Brooke. Matt's her boyfriend", he said. I frowned. "Why…is she dressed like that"? I asked cautiously, taking in Brooke's black shorts, black t-shirt with a white skull on the front, and black sneakers and spiked wrist cuffs.
Suddenly she walked over. "Hello siblings", she said in a blank, distant voice to Sam and Ryan. I instinctively moved a little closer to Ryan. "Is something wrong", I whispered, more to Ryan. But apparently Brooke heard. She looked at me with her piercing eyes.
"No, don't mind me as I wallow and drown in the sinking, cold depths of my depression", she said blankly. I raised my eyebrows questioningly at Ryan. He just shrugged. "She decided a few weeks ago that the death was too much to tolerate, and that she would 'give in to the depression'", he said, and I clapped my hand over my mouth. "Oh my gosh, who died"? I asked sympathetically.
Sam rolled her eyes. "Her pet goldfish", she said dryly. I saw Jason snicker behind his hand. "When"? I asked, still sympathetic. "When she was three years old", Sam and Ryan said in unison. Brooke spoke up suddenly, and I was surprised. I had forgotten she was there.
"As you can see I have had a traumatic childhood and I have been mentally scarred beyond therapy or counselling", she said. "You were born with mental issues beyond therapy or counselling, sis. Don't worry, it happened at birth", Ryan said in an honest voice. Brooke glared at him and smacked the side of his head, storming off.
"What was that all about"? I asked with a slight laugh. Ryan groaned. "Don't worry. It's just another faze of hers. Another quest for popularity and attention. She decided to go emo or whatever her prissy friends call it", he muttered. "Emo"? I asked, confused. "It's like, Goth, only emo people are 'emotionally challenged', or something", he shook his head. "Oh", I said.
"Hey, do you guys wanna drink"? A guy with sandy blonde hair asked. I assumed he was Matt, and he handed me and Ryan a…beer? I took it anyway. "Um, Ryan, are we…allowed"? I asked nodding my head at the bottle. Ryan just unscrewed the cap and chugged it down. I copied him, but I drank a little more. A sudden wave of dizziness washed over me. "Whoa"! I said, shaking my head. Matt smirked and handed us a few more bottles, but I just dragged Ryan to the dance floor.
"C'mon", I laughed. Ryan and I danced while we drinked. "So, changed your mind", he whispered in my ear. I just nodded. I was actually having a sort of good time.
After a few more drinks, I started to feel giddy. A game of Spin The Bottle caught my attention, so I dragged Ryan over there next. "Aw, but I don't wanna share you", Ryan whined. I rolled my eyes and giggled. "It's just a bit of fun", I protested. The game looked fun fun. I shook my head. Fun fun?
We joined in the circle, and a few people got kissed before any of our group got picked. A girl called Chrissie spun Jason, and they went off to make out somewhere. Sam didn't seem to mind. Her and another guy also went off to there own little space to kiss. Then a girl called Marie spun Ryan. Now Marie was as drunk as. She was laughing and giggling and grabbed Ryan's wrist to drag him off.
He was quite drunk by now, too. So he just laughed and pulled her to his chest. They started making out and Marie dragged him off somewhere. I didn't really mind. He was drunk, and it was a game, after all. He didn't love her, so it didn't matter. Then it was my turn to spin. Jason came out and sat down, and the bottle landed on him. Sam wasn't back yet, so I thought what the heck.
Jason was a good kisser, I admit. He pushed me up against a wall and we made out for a bit. His breath stank of alcohol, but I'm sure mine did too. I felt his hands feeling all over my body. I just wrapped my arms around him and pulled him closer. I liked the feel of his warm chest. I could hear the game had paused. People were whistling about something. I realised a lot of people were watching me and Jason.
I suddenly realised I really enjoyed being the centre or attention.
Edward's POV
I sped all the way to the party. Alice's vision had infuriated me. I was not going to let Bella do that to herself. I heard the music before anything else. It was blasting. I parked and jumped out of the car, slamming the door. It almost fell off.
I stormed into the house but no one noticed. The first thing I saw was Bella. Dear, sweet Bella. Innocent, kind, loving Bella. Pressed up against a wall. With some…boy kissing her. Just like Alice's vision. He wasn't Ryan. From other peoples thoughts I found out that his name was Jason. I grabbed his shoulders and shoved him to the ground.
"Hey, what's the deal, man"? He asked in a drunken tone. I growled at him, and Bella laughed. I could smell her breath; she was drunk. "Hello Eddy", she giggled and swayed. I noticed the beer bottle in her hand. I growled more. How the hell had she gotten to be so bloody drunk? "Eddy"? I asked, pulled her to my chest. She was giggling uncontrollably, and then she stopped.
"No, Eddy's been a bad boy. Eddy, leave now", she said, scolding me like a little child might. I couldn't believe it. What the hell was going on? Bella had turned into a…I wasn't even going to think it. "Bella, look at you! You're totally drunk! I'm not leaving you like this, you're coming home with me right now", I shook my head and began to lead her away.
But tears were forming in Bella's eyes. "No Eddy. Please…go, just…leave", she struggled. I shook my head. "I will leave. But not without you first", I said firmly. I glanced at Jason. He was rolling on the floor, clutching his stomach and groaning. I gave a disgusted grunt. "So where's Ryan"? I asked sharply.
Bella just shrugged. "Well I dunno. I don't own him ya know. He can go kiss wa eva gurl he wants", she droned. She stumbled over to a game of Spin The Bottle. I was about go after her when a tall blonde girl appeared in front of me and started to try and dance with me. It was the girl I recognised as Sam. "Hello, Edward", she batted her eyelashes and wrapped her arms around my neck.
I wanted to throw up. It made me feel physically ill. I picked Sam up into my arms and carried her over to the couch. I sat her down carefully. "No"! She pleaded desperately, clinging to my neck. I carefully peeled her off me. "A piggy back ride"? She tried pleadingly. I gave her a sympathetic look and shook my head.
The poor girl didn't even realise she was drunk. But it didn't take long for someone else to get hold of her. I went over to Bella and picked her up, bridal style. "No"! She shouted as I carried her to the door. I wanted to kiss her and tell her it would be okay. But she beat her fists on my chest and I sighed. Jason came up to me, infuriated. "Hey, punk, what the hell do you think you're doing"? He snapped.
I glared at him. "Taking her home. She is absolutely dead drunk"! I snarled. But Bella glared at me. "Eddy! Put me down, I want to stay! I have to find Ryan! I love him", she said in a child's voice. "Why do you need to find him"? I challenged.
She looked at me desperately. "Because…I'm pregnant. I'm having his baby", she said, ashamed. I gaped at her. Then I glared, and stormed, Bella still in my arms, to find Ryan. "No! Eddy, leave right now"! She ordered. So I put her down and shook my head. "Oh Bella. Please take care of yourself. I can't look after you forever, so I'll stop here. But please, keep yourself safe", I begged, and turned to leave.
I heard Bella giggled, and turned to see her kiss Jason again. She pulled back for a moment and threw up on the floor. I rushed to her side and held her hair out of the way while she threw up some more. Too much beer, I thought angrily.Apparently Jason had the same thoughts.
Too much grog, I guess. Maybe I should take her into the bedroom-
I blocked him out as a picture formed in his mind. I felt sick. I patted Bella's back but I got the same response. "Go", she said. So I turned and left. I was much slower driving home. I was reluctant to leave poor Bella, but I was trying to give her what she wanted. I hadn't when she was mine, and that's how I had lost her.
I pulled up at my house and my family's thoughts washed over me.
Oh thank heavens he's home! I hope Bella is with him!
If she's drunk as it's his fault. All of this is happening because bloody Edward didn't want to change her.
Who even cares? Bella isn't important! I can't believe they all care so much about a worthless human.
Uh oh. Edward is very unhappy. I wonder what happened. He's…confused? I wonder why. I think he is sad…I've never known Edward to be sad before.
Oh my God. I hope Bella is okay!
I hope she isn't too drunk. That won't be good. She'll be very sick.
I ignored their thoughts. Their words worried me far more. As I walked into the house everyone rushed at me. Alice got in first.
"Edward, where the hell is Bella? Please tell me she isn't still at-".
"-she's not at the party anymore. She'll be halfway to deaths door by now", Rosalie interrupted.
"What"?
Ooh, the suspense. Okay, I want at least ten more reviews before the next chapter is posted. Even if only one person reviews ten times. If that happens, that one person must send ten different reviews. Anyway, my point is, REVIEW! Or the next chapter won't come. TEN AT THE LEAST PEOPLE!
