Chapter 8
In the Restroom
"Bella, I can take you home if you want" said Rosalie
"No, I am okay. It was silly of me to ever think Edward might have feelings for me." said Bella, drying her tear stained face.
"I don't believe that Bella, I think Edward cares deeply for you" said Alice
"Chris is waiting for you" interjected Rosalie, wanting to get off the subject of Edward
Bella smiled at the mention of Chris
"Can you help me with my make-up" said Bella, wanting to see Chris
"Of course" said Alice, getting excited, but still upset over her best friend and her brother.
Rosalie helped Alice and they fixed Bella's makeup, her eyes were still a little puffy, but she did not look like a train wreck
"Oh Alice um can you give this back to Edward" said Bella, as she looked at herself in the mirror, taking off the apple necklace Edward had given to her an hour ago
"But Bella...
"No Alice, I am through; my silly crush will not prevail. From now on I look at Edward as a brother and not someone I love. I am finished with him, at least Chris appreciates me" said Bella, handing Alice the necklace
Rosalie looked absolutely stunned at the declaration made by Bella, Alice stared at the necklace, and Bella left the two of them in the bathroom, holding her head high.
In the Bathroom...
"Alice, what are we going to do?" asked Rosalie
"I have no idea, Edward paid a lot of money to get this for Bella, he put so much effort into getting this gift, I think he actually loves her" said Alice, holding the necklace
"Edward won't be happy with Chris out there and Bella being all over Chris" said Rosalie
"Then we have to get Edward out of there, this is Bella's night and I won't have him ruin it, besides this is the first time I have seen Bella go after a guy besides Edward, not that she did do much, but I mean like go after him" said Alice
"Okay how about I take the necklace to hold on to and you go get Edward out of here" said Rosalie, holding onto the necklace.
Alice left the bathroom and went to find Edward

Meanwhile...
Bella found Chris, Jasper, and Emmet. Edward was by the bar sipping on a drink. It hurt to see him there, but he looked at though he was brooding so that helped ease Bella's thoughts
"Bella, you look absolutely stunning" said Chris, as he saw Bella, taking her hand and kissing it
Bella blushed
Emmet looked at the affection between the two and disliked it. He turned to look at Edward and saw him spit out his drink at the display. Before Emmet could say anything Rosalie came up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist
"Let's dance" said Rosalie
Emmet nodded and walked to the dance floor, eyes still on Bella and Chris.
"Bella and Edward got into a fight" said Rosalie, as she danced with Emmet
"I know, Edward is trying to drown his sorrows. I have never seen him so angry" said Emmet
"We have to fix this" said Rosalie
"I don't know what we can do" said Emmet
"I wonder if Bella will do anything stupid?" questioned Rosalie. Introducing Bella to Chris might have been a good idea before, but Chris was getting attached to Bella and seemed as though Bella was on the rebound. Not to mention Edward looked at though he was about to kill Chris
"I am sure she won't" said Emmet, not fulling knowing if he was more worried about Edward or Bella.
"Uh oh I hope Alice get's to Edward, before Edward's fist gets to Chris" said Rosalie, as she noticed Chris grab Bella to dance and Edward clenching and unclenching his fist at his side.
Sure enough Alice got to Edward before he started to act on his feelings and led him away
Chris and Bella danced the night away, while Edward and Alice talked.
Outside the Restaurant...
"Edward are you alright?" asked Alice
"Yes...No" said Edward, pacing up and down the sidewalk
"You know you can tell me anything" said Alice
Edward looked at Alice shocked
"Okay well I have a tendency to let things slip, but I have been a good sister" said Alice
Edward nodded and then confessed that he did have feelings for Bella; Alice was joyed at his words.
"The only problem is I think I am too late Alice" said Edward, bowing his head.
"No, Edward she still loves you" said Alice, knowing deep in her heart that Bella still loved Edward, she just didn't want to wear her heart on her sleeve anymore
"Did you see the way she looked at Chris? I almost think they were already in a relationship and Alice I don't like it" said Edward
"Well obviously you don't like it, you love Bella, but Chris is nice" said Alice
"No... That's just it he isn't a nice guy. You don't know things about Chris that I do" said Edward
"What do you mean?" asked Alice, questioning Edward's words; the door to the resturant opened and Chris came out with Bella
Edward saw this and held back his emotions
"Forget it, just make sure Bella is safe. I have to go sort things out" said Edward, turning on his heel and leaving.
"EDWARD, WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" screamed Alice from across the way.

(BELLA POV)
At the mention of his name and the screaming coming from Alice, I looked at Edward disappear into the Vanquish and disappear.
An unfamiliar feeling settled into my stomach, I feeling I disliked
"Alice what happened" I asked
"Nothing" said Alice, looking distressed
"Okay, well Chris is going to drive me home" I told her, not believing her for a second, hoping that Alice would tell me
Alice looked at me with a weird expression on her face
"Bella can I talk to you for a minute?" She asked
"Okay, Chris I'll be right back" I told him
"Sure I'll get the car" said Chris, he was so wonderful.
"Bella, Edward said Chris was dangerous" said Alice, taking me on the side of the resturant
Great Edward, that's all I needed!
"Alice, Chris is not dangerous he is a perfect gentlemen" I said, defending Chris
"But Bella, this is Edward we are talking about, he doesn't say something unless he means it" said Alice
"Yeah...right, look Alice Chris is getting the car I should probably go" I said, not believing that everything Edward said was true
"But Bella...
"Alice no, you have told me over and over again to go out with some other guy, well I am and no one is going to stop me" I told her
I left a stunned Alice and went to Chris' car
He drove me home that night, we talked the whole way and by the time I got home, I wished Chris was still with me, we had so many things in common, almost like me and Edward
But I had to stop thinking about Edward, Chris was different; I couldn't put my finger on it, but I felt weird around Chris, maybe this was love
Of course that thought flew out of my head the minute I got to my room and saw the picture of me and Edward. I loved him, him and only him, Chris was just my rebound, but even with that logic of thinking something still bugged me about Chris, I just didn't know what. Maybe it was because Edward still cared about me, enough to still get jealous about Chris. I saw the way his fist clenched and unclenched as Chris danced with me. I danced with Chris wishing Edward was holding me. I felt like I was on fire knowing Edward was watching me.
I just needed to show Edward that he needed me, maybe using Chris would be a good idea and that night I fell asleep thinking about what I would do to win Edward's heart for the final time. If I don't then I was destined to be with Chris.
