Bella's POV

I woke up the next morning with the worst headache that I had had since that night that I got drunk at Maddie's keg party. I trudged to the kitchen to make myself a pot of coffee. I entered the kitchen to see Rachel, Embry, Jake, Aubrey, and Aria sitting at the island and eating breakfast. Jake hugged me as soon as I walked over to them.

" Finally your up! I thought that you were gonna sleep all day!" Rachel said. I rolled my eyes at her and grabbed a mug to pour some coffee for myself. I sat down and they all stared at me.

" What?" I finally managed to croak. Aria furrowed her eyebrows and tilted her head to the side, making her long black hair swish.

" Thats weird. Last night you sounded more than fine, but now you sound and look like a mess!" She said in her charming british accent. I thought for a moment, trying to think of when I saw Aria last.

" What are you talking about? I haven't seen you since Thursday. I didn't see you last night." I answered. She and Aubrey stared at me like I was crazy.

" We talked to you last night Bella. Remember? We asked if you wanted to go to Maddie's keg party." Aubrey said as she finished buttering a piece of toast. I shook my head.

" No you didn't. I would have noticed if you called me guys. Plus, me and Rachel were at a club the whole night." Rachel shook her head confirming my statement. Aubrey and Aria both shook their heads.

" Bella. I'm positive that we called you. And if we didn't call you, then why did you answer and ask who Janice and Sara were?" Aria said. I frowned I hadn't said anything of the sort!

"You're wrong. I'll prove it to you. Let me go get my phone, and lets check the call history." I said, determined to solve the mystery. I slid off my stool and sprinted to my room. I looked around for my white clutch from last night. I couldn't see it anywhere. I lifted the bedding on my bed and looked around for it. It wasn't there. I felt a small twinge of panic build in my stomach. I hurriedly searched the bedroom for my purse. I then searched the bathroom, living room, dining room, and finally the kitchen. I looked at Rachel with wide eyes.

" Rachel where is my clutch from last night. I can't find it and it has my cell, my ID card, my wallet, and all of my money in it." I could hear my voice rise a few octaves in panic. Rachel stared at me for a long moment before widening her eyes like me and rushing to my side. Everyone looked at us in puzzlement.

" I don't know, I haven't seen it since last night at the club in the booth... OH MY GOD! BELLA WHERE IS MY PURSE?!" Rachel screamed as she began throwing pillows and various other items around the kitchen. Embry and Jake were at our sides in a flash.

" Bella? Whats wrong? What happened? What did you lose?" Jake asked frantically as he held me to his chest. I wrapped my arms around him.

" Last night we set down our things and now we can't find them. Unless we left them at the club..." I trailed off as I spun around to face Rachel at the exact same time she spun around to look at me.

"Oh my god, Bella! What are we gonna do?! Someone probably has our credit cards, and cell phones and our ID cards with them! They could be spending millions of dollars on my credit cards! We have to cancel our service! Oh my god! Oh my god!" Rachel began to flap her arms around in circles as she hyperventilated.

Even though I wanted more than anything to have a panic attack like Rachel, I knew that we had to calm down and act soon. Embry and Jacob exchanged a worried glance before hugging us again. Rachel had started crying, and now Aria and Aubrey were comforting us.

" Its alright sweetheart. We'll get this all sorted out as soon as possible, and everything will be fine. I promise." Aubrey said to Rachel as Rachel's slim body began to rack with sobs. Embry kissed Rachel not knowing what else to do. She kissed him back, but sobbed at the same time.

" Rachel. Lets all calm down and think about this clearly. Now we need to cancel our credit cards, and call our phones to see who has them. Okay? Now how about we do yours first." I said. I struggled to keep my voice even so that I would sound at least a little bit in control.

I snatched the home phone off of its holder and quickly dialed Rachel's number. I held up a finger for everybody to be quiet while I put it on speakerphone. We heard the first loud ring. We all waited with anxious anticipation as it rung again. On the third ring someone picked up.

" Hello?" The voice sounded slightly familiar, but I couldn't put my finger on who it belonged to. Rachel grabbed the phone out of my hands and opened her mouth to scream at the person on the other line, put Embry covered her mouth before she could say a word. He restrained her arms behind her back and kissed her neck trying to soothe her. I grabbed the phone again.

" Hi, this is Bella Swan. I believe that you have my phone." I said in my best authoritative voice. I heard a muffled gasp on the other line.

" Um, hi Bella. Well I found this phone in a purse at a club last night. I didn't want anyone to steal it, so I took it home with me. " The voice replied. I furrowed my brow.

" Well did you happen to ind a white clutch next to that purse?" I questioned hoping that she would say yes.

"Yeah I did. There is a cell phone in that one also. " We all sighed in relief at this information. Then a thought occurred to me.

" If you found it just sitting there, then why didn't you dial the first number that you found? Surely you would have found out who it belonged to." I asked. Somehow I didn't entirely trust this person.

"Uh... well... I, er, don't really know exactly, but I'll be sure to deliver it to you as soon as I can. How about you give me your address and I'll drop both of the bags off with all of your stuff in it." I narrowed my eyes at the answer.

" Hold it buddy. I don't even know your name here, and you want my address? Isn't it enough that you have my credit card and all that stuff? No, I'll come pick them up. " I said in a firm voice.

" Ok, then. My names Alic- I mean Alison. Yeah, um, Alison Cullon. How about we meet up at a cafe or something. That way there won't be any private info revealed. How about Mona's on Lexington? Its a really nice place. Be there at 3:30 sharp. I'll be sitting at the back of the cafe. I can't wait to meet you! See ya then! Bye!" Alison hung up. I set the phone down with a suspicious feeling in my stomach.

" Alright, so at least we know who has our stuff and their name. How about me, Rachel, Jake, and Embry go down to meet her at the cafe. You never know what kind of girl she could be." I said as I crossed the room. Rachel relaxed her rigid position and flopped down on the couch. Aria an Aubrey smiled and grabbed their books.

" Well I'm glad thats all settled. We'll see you girls later! Bye!" They both said as they closed the front door. Embry and Jake sat down next to Rachel and watched the TV show that Rachel had put on.

" I'm gonna get dressed." I said as I trudged to the bathroom to shower. As the hot water twisted out all of the knots my shoulders held, I thought about the encounter I had with Edward last night. I sighed. Why did I have to open my big mouth in the first place? I could be so stupid sometimes.

I got out of the shower and dried off before slipping into my room and changing into a simple yellow blouse and white bermudas. After I had washed my face, brushed my hair and teeth, I walked into the living room and snuggled into Jake's chest.

He wrapped his arms around me, and I inhaled his musky scent. He smelled so good. I leaned down and kissed my damp hair. He then tilted my face up to his, and kissed me.

" I forgot to say good morning." He whispered against my lips. I flushed al little at his words. After we pulled away, he whispered in my ear.

" Don't worry. It will be fine. We'll get your stuff back. I hate it went you get all stressed out." He kissed my head again before turning back to watched the TV. I sighed. Maybe I was worrying too much. Or maybe not.

Sorry it took so long to update. Ok so I'm sure all of you have a pretty good idea of who it really was on the phone, but for those of you who are slow, well the I guess you will have to read the next chapter to find out. By the way, I have pictures of Bella, Edward, Alice, Rosalie, and Rachel on my profile, so check it out.
