A/N: This chapter is so late, I know, I know. It would be so amazing if you could find it in all of your innocent glorious hearts to forgive me. This business isn't as easy as it looks, trust me.

Brigitte Helmut and Craig Free are figments of my imagination. It couldn't hurt to add a character or two to the population of Forks High, right?

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of Stephenie Meyer's characters. I do own Brigitte and Craig.

Rosalie POV:

For the first time in my life, I felt protective of Bella. Bella. I was supposed to hate her, wasn't I? Concentrate Rose, I told myself, This is the woman who wants to become a vampire. She's the one who has the chance to live your life, and she's giving it up!

There, I'd done it. But when I opened my eyes again and saw her, I felt the need to protect her overwhelm me again. She was like my sister, and I would have to accept her sooner or later. It wasn't like I was doing this for her, anyway. I was doing it because of Lauren's cruelty. Yes, that was it. The pain I wanted to inflict on Lauren had nothing to do with Bella.

I looked at Lauren. She was as red as a tomato. To everyone who asked, she kept saying: "Uh, no. It was a prank, you see. Yes, a prank. I don't... I don't.. love E- E- Edward, I mean, I.. I'm not... jealous of Bella, or anything. No, no. No."

Ha! She thought she was embarrassed now? I had to think of something truly evil. But if the bottle came my way, they would have to spin it again. I'd already had my turn. Maybe I could get Alice or Emmett or Jasper to do something? That would be possible.

I concentrated hard. What were Lauren's weaknesses? She was jealous of Bella, but I couldn't use that against her, and I knew that she loved Edward, but what more could be done to humiliate her on that subject? She was a bitch... wait a minute, she was a bitch! I could definitely use that to completely destroy her reputation. But how could I get my family to be a part of it?

It came to me then. I mentioned my plan to Alice in below a whisper. She could barely hear me, let alone anyone else. She grinned and nodded with satisfaction when I told her what I had in mind. She gave me a thumbs up sign.

Jessica seemed much happier now that she had played her part in the game, she spun the bottle, all the while winking and waving suggestively at the boys around her. It annoyed me. I gazed at Mike, tossing my blonde hair back. He immediately forgot Jessica. As if I could seriously be interested in him.

When the bottle stopped, I changed the direction immediately so that it pointed towards Alice. No one even saw me get up, naturally.

Alice, being the wonderful actress that she is, seemed happily surprised and pretended to put a lot of thought into who she was going to dare.

Meanwhile, Lauren was flirting with Craig Free, heartthrob of Forks. Too bad for Lauren, he had a girlfriend, Brigitte Helmut. That was it! I rephrased my new plan to Alice, who clapped vigorously.

"I know, I know." My sister exclaimed. Jessica gestured for her to go on.

"I want to dare Lauren." Alice continued, pointing excitedly at her. She checked the room to make sure Brigitte was nowhere to be seen. She'd went to the bathroom, anyway. Lauren sighed.

"Yes, Alice?" She demanded.

"Kiss Craig." Alice replied simply. Lauren's face brightened.

"Really? You want me to kiss Craig?" She asked happily, trying to hide her excitement. Alice nodded. Craig didn't seem to mind either, he leaned forward, and Lauren did too. At the moment their lips met, the gym doors opened with a bang.

"You BITCH!" Brigitte yelled, walking over and slapping Lauren hard on the face. Lauren turned red again, this time for a different reason. Brigitte was a strong girl, and just as bitchy as Lauren was. They would dare each other both as soon as they got the chance. We had just guaranteed a complete destruction of Lauren's popularity.

"Me? It was a dare!" Lauren defended herself innocently.

"This isn't over!" Brigitte hissed. Lauren crossed her arms and pouted.

"This hasn't even begun." She stated.

Welcome to the war of the bitches.
