BPOV:

So, as if this situation wasn't embarrassing enough, when she asked me what was wrong, I started crying. And of course, I couldn't have had little dainty tears roll down my cheeks. No, I had to have big, loud sobs, accompanied with a red, scrunched up face. God, I must have looked like a total immature loser to her.

But then, she did something I never would have expected. She stood by me and held me as I cried. I'm pretty sure that I ruined her pretty top, but she didn't seem to care. She just held me even tighter.

I don't know how long we stood there, but it felt so long. My legs were aching and my feet were sore. I had stopped crying a few minutes ago, but I didn't want to pull away. I hadn't been held like this since I was a young child, and it felt nice. Then, the door burst open and there was the sound of shoes on the floor.

"Oh my god, BELLA! Are you in here? I really need to talk to you!" Alice's voice bounced around the walls and echoed throughout the room."

"Yeah, Alice, right now is not a very good time." I sighed. I opened the door anyways.

"Why not?" she asked. "Did something hap-"

I came out and she rushed over to me. "What's wrong? Why were you crying? Oh, are you ok?"

She stopped bombarding me with questions when she saw Rosalie behind me.

"Oh, yeah. Rosalie, this is my best friend Alice. Alice, this is Emmett's girlfriend Rosalie. I was crying because of something that happened, which I will explain to you later, and she came in here to help me. Thank you, by the way." I told Rosalie.

Rosalie gave me a small smile. "No problem. You can come to me anytime you need to."

I gave her a smile back. "Thanks."

"What was it that you wanted to tell me, Alice?" I asked.

"OH, right. You'll never believe it! I was in the cafeteria, throwing away some trash, and JASPER HALE came up to me and asked me out!" Her face was flushed with excitement and she looked wildly happy.

"That's great! Where are you guys going to go?" I asked this because here in Forks, there really isn't much to do. There are a few bars, but we are obviously not allowed because we are under 21. The nearest place with things for teenagers to do is in Port Angeles, which is an hour away. Even though they both have cars, it would still be a long way to go just for a date.

Alice's face fell.

"Well, technically, he didn't ask me out on a date. We are together now, as in boyfriend and girlfriend, but between my gymnastics practices and his baseball practices, we don't really have that much time we could spend with each other. So, we figured that we'd just figure that out later."

This obviously made her sad.

"Oh, it's alright. You guys will work that part out. The important part is that you like him and he likes you, right?"

She looks at me and grins.

"Right!"
