Tanya Denali and Edward Cullen have been going out for nearly 8 months. God, it is killing me.

Tonight, I am having a sleepover with Alice, and Tanya is coming for dinner there. I promised Alice's mother, Esme, that I would help. Last time Alice "Helped" the microwave exploded, the toaster caught on fire, and the stove combusted.

At dinner:

I sat there at the table, pushing the peas around my plate.

"So Tanya, how are your sisters?" asked Carlisle.

"They are good Mr. Cullen," she said smiling.

He nodded and looked at me.

"Something wrong Bella?" asked Carlisle.

"N-no, everything is fine Carlisle. How was work?" I asked.

"Bella, you should have referred to Mr. and Mrs. Cullen more formally," snapped Tanya.

"How are Billy, Jacob and Charlie?" asked Edward. I looked up and smiled.

"Billy just sold me the truck; he's in a wheel chair now, so he can't drive. Jake is rebuilding a rabbit and Charlie is working late tonight," I told them.

"He is building a rabbit, Eww," said Tanya, wrinkling her nose in disgust.

"Tanya, it is a car," said Alice. "As if a little bitchy blonde like you would understand that,"

"Alice! Talk nicer to your brother's girlfriend," snapped Emmett, and then his booming laughter filled the room.

After Dinner, after Tanya left; in Alice's room with Edward, Alice and Emmett:

"Tanya equals Bitch!" screamed Alice, pushing some make up off her dresser.

"She is, seriously, she is an idiot too," said Emmett, crossing his arms over his big chest.

"She can be bitchy at times," muttered Edward.

"Frankly, I don't like the way she looks at Bella," said Alice.

"What?" I asked, perking up at the mention of my name.

"Bella, get your head out of 'Wuthering Heights' and pay attention to what we are going to say right now," said Alice.

"Tanya looks at you like she wants to kill you, you are around Edward so much, and it probably makes her jealous,"

"CRAP!" screamed Edward.

"What?" I asked.

"It's nearly 11 o'clock. I'm meeting with Tanya," he said, and ran out the door.

"I'm following him," I said.

"I'm coming," said Alice. "We can take my Porsche," she clapped her hands.

"Yep, nothing quite as silent as a 911 Porsche turbo," I said.

"Take the jeep, Tanya is bad news and might just make him do shots or smoke some glass," said Emmett, throwing us the keys to his jeep.

"You drive," I told Alice. "You are faster." She nodded and we raced downstairs.

"We are you going?" screamed Esme, panic filling her eyes.

"We have to save Edward, you can ground us when we get back," screamed Alice. Esme had permission from Charlie to ground me when needed, but that 'needed' never really came up yet.

Alice jumped into the driver's seat hurriedly as I jumped into the passenger seat. We speed off down the drive way.

"What do you think is gonna happen?" I asked. She looked at me as I fiddled with my seatbelt.

"Ice," she said. "Tanya keeps some with her too. She is so sick. I think that she is going to make him do some glass too; if he has even a single toot, Edward is going to juvie. Remember what Charlie said when he caught him with his first girlfriend cranking in that stolen car? He can go to juvie and Tanya would make up all these crazy stories. She is like that,"

I had never seen Alice like this; her eyes flashed with anger, her knuckles white as she held the steering wheel to tight. I wanted to calm her down, but with her at the wheel, that was all too dangerous.

A/N

Okay, so I'm sorry for the late chapter. I was working on my English assignment.

Next chapter, they will see Edward high as hell. It will be kinda funny and bad at the same time. Charlie will catch him, but he won't go to Juvie.
