A/N: This be not the end! No worries there. =D This is longer than they've been lately. I was writing before Lost came on yesterday, and finished today. The characters took over. I think this is the fastest I've ever wrote a chapter (considering I started yesterday). I like it, personally.

Thank you, honeybun911, for the idea for this chapter. She requested they go to the bar and Bella not be the DD. I liked that idea, and so, here it is!

Thank you, Madi, for editing. She gets credit for a couple of the lines in here, and also for the drink choices. (I can't drink, so I wouldn't have any clue what to have them order..)

Disclaimer: It's Ch 19 and I still have to do these things? =O I'm not Stephenie, nor is my last name Meyer. 'Tis a shame.

Read on! =)


Chapter 19

EPOV

"You know what?" Alice said as we walked out of the restaurant.

"What?" Bella answered cautiously.

"We need to get our minds off this," she stated.

"Aly, what do you mean?" Emmett asked.

"We. Need. To. Get. Our. Minds. Off. This," she said slowly, as if talking to a toddler.

"We heard you the first time, baby," Jasper said. "How do you plan to accomplish this?"

I looked at Alice. She was grinning mischievously.

"Do you remember where we met?" she asked.

I thought back. It was a bar. I was drunk.

Rosalie laughed. "Oh gosh. Um... bar, right?"

Bella chuckled. "Frankly, I'm surprised any of you remember. I mean no offense here, guys. Really. Your drunken selves entertain me greatly."

She looked back at me, grinning. "Oh Lord. What did I do?"

I waggled my eyebrows at her, and she smirked. I tickled her sides, making her squeal.

"You think that's funny?" I asked playfully.

She nodded, trying to free herself from my wrath.

I scooped her up and put her over my shoulder. She smacked my legs, asking to put her down. I ignored her requests, and carried her to the car. I spun around to walk facing the group.

"Put her down!" Rosalie said. "Look how red she's getting!"

"She's just embarrassed that you all are watching her stare at my ass," I told her.

"Oh my God!" Alice exclaimed. "I didn't think she could get any redder!"

Bella continued hitting and punching me, but she was laughing so I knew she wasn't really upset.

I let her off my shoulder, but not out of my arms. I went around and put her in the passenger seat of the Volvo, then walked back around to the driver's seat.

"Jeez, Edward," was all she said.

I sat in the car, grinning. "Like the view?" I asked, earning another smack.

Emmett and Jasper got in the car. Rosalie and Alice climbed in, and sat in the middle; which didn't make sense to me at all. Why didn't they just get in first?

Rosalie moved to sit on Emmett's lap.

"Everybody in and buckled?" I asked. Click it or ticket. Personally, I didn't want a ticket.

"We're good!" Alice called, snapping the seatbelt across her.

"Who's driving home?" I asked.

I saw Emmett grin and point to Bella. "She's it!"

"Uh-huh. Not happening, bear;" she said then added, "I did it last time."

"She's got a point," Rosalie said.

"So how do we decide?" Jasper asked.

"Yeah, we don't have straws!" Emmett said, mockingly of Alice.

She smacked him. "Nose goes!" she said, placing a finger on her nose.

"Alice, that's not a fair way," I told her.

"Sure it is!" she replied, finger still on her nose.

"Somebody shut her up," Bella mumbled. I chuckled.

"Be nice, love," I said.

Bella looked at me, grinned, and stuck her finger on her nose too.

"Listen, its not me or Alice. The longer you take to put your damn finger on your nose, the longer we will wait to see who drives," she said.

Rosalie and Emmett both stuck their fingers on their nose.

"You can't be serious. What is this, third grade?" Jasper asked.

I took my left hand from the wheel and put my index finger on my nose.

Looking at Bella, I asked, "Happy now?"

"Very," she smirked.

"Jasper drives!" Rosalie said.

"Damn," he said. "I can't believe y'all are serious about this."

"No drinks for Jasper," Alice grinned.

"Ugh!" he said.

"What's wrong, Jazz? Can't handle not drinking?" Rosalie asked him playfully.

"No, I just don't think it's fair that I'm the one losing my apartment, and I still have to drive," he said, rolling his eyes.

"Well, I'm going to be stressed with coordinating all our colors of everything, and Rosalie is going to be helping, Bella drove last time, Emmett can't be trusted, and so that leaves you and Edward," Alice said.

Bella saved me from an argument with Jasper over who would drive by saying, "Obviously Edward can't be trusted either. Last time he was supposed to drive, and he clearly didn't stay sober."

"Ass hole," Jasper said to me.

"Hey, it's not my fault. I was having a bad night!" I said, not really remembering.

"Oh yeah? What happened?" he asked, knowing I had no answer.

"Well, you know..." I started. Bella couldn't cut in and save me this time. She had nothing to add. I just let my sentence carry off and focused my eyes on the road.

We pulled into the parking lot for Hurricane. I walked around and opened Bella's door.

"Wait! Bella, don't get out!" Alice called.

"What?" she said, spinning in the seat to look at Alice.

"Last minute make-up!" she sang. She pulled out twenty different things from her purse, and I went to sit back in the driver's side. This could take a while.

We sat while Alice did Bella's make-up. She put stuff on the eyelashes, lip stick, gloss over that, and eyeliner.

"Done!" Alice announced. "Look at Edward."

Bella turned to me, and I stopped breathing for a moment.

"Woah, Bella," I started.

Her eyes grew wide. "Aliceeee," she whined. "It looks bad! Look at how he's looking at me!"

"No, no Bella. Not that. It looks hot, really. I'm speechless," I babbled.

She laughed. "Those are a lot of words for a speechless person."

"Next," Alice said turning to Rosalie.

She put red lipstick on Rose's lips, and darkened her eyeliner a bit.

"Okay, good again," she said. Rosalie rubbed her lips together to smear the lipstick.

"Come here, Emmett," she said to him. He leaned in close to her, and she kissed the nape of his neck. "I want everyone to know you're mine," she said.

He grinned and they started making out.

"Lipstick probably wasn't the best idea with those two," Jasper told Alice.

"Yeah, well I always have more," she laughed.

I walked around to Bella's side again, and took her hand as she stepped out of the car.

Together we walked into the bar, not waiting for the others.

"She moves her body like a cyclone, makes me wanna do it all night long, like a cyclone, baby, like a cyclone," the music the deejay had on was a fast, sexy beat, perfect to dance to.

"May I have this dance?" I asked her.

She blushed. "To this?"

I nodded. "I happen to like this song," I informed her, although I really didn't. I just wanted to see her dance to it.

She shrugged and moved between a crowd of people. She was swaying to the beat, not really moving.

"Bella, love, you need to put more feeling into this," I told her. "Don't you remember?"I asked, walking around to her backside, just like I when we first met.

I placed a hand on each hip and rocked her body more to the beat. Closer to the end of the song she started getting gutsier, dipping her hips. Another similar song came on, and we continued dancing. I glanced at where Emmett and Rosalie were dancing. Rosalie was grinding on Emmett. I chuckled.

"What's so funny?" Bella asked, thinking I was laughing at her.

I pointed to the two of them.

"Jeez, you'd think Rosalie wouldn't do that in public," she said.

"Love, look around. We're practically the only ones not doing that," I told her.

"Well," she said, grinning a very sexy smile. "I can fix that."

I danced how I was before, except now Bella was moving her body up and down mine, running her arms along my body too. Her hips dipped back and forth. It was extremely arousing. I wrapped my arms around her waist, dipping with her, swaying to the beat. I placed kisses along her shoulder blades.

"SEE?!" I heard some girl yell. "WHY CAN'T YOU BE MORE LIKE HIM?! YOU'RE A JERK, LEAVE ME ALONE!" I stopped what I was doing looking up at the girl. She was being followed by a massively muscled guy.

"Danny," he said, his words slurred. Obviously, he was drunk.

"DON'T FUCKING CALL ME THAT. MY NAME IS DANIELLE. NOT DANNY. NOT DAN-DAN. NONE OF THOSE SHITTY NAMES."

"Danielle then," he said. "Come back here. I love you."

"THAT'S IT! I'M SO SICK OF YOUR BULL SHIT. GO. AWAY," she said, storming out of the room.

"Wow," I whispered in Bella's ear. "That was intense, huh."

He followed after her, but was escorted out by two bouncers.

"I wonder what pissed her off so much," she said.

"I know one thing," I said. "I would never make you," kiss, "that upset," kiss. "I wouldn't want," kiss, "someone as beautiful as you," kiss, "mad at me."

She spun around, looking me in the eyes. "I don't know how you do it, but you dazzle me."

I chuckled. "I dazzle you?"

"Frequently," she replied, and then wrapped her arms around my neck, lacing her fingers into my hair, pulling my head to hers. I met her lips, running my tongue across her bottom lip immediately. She granted me entrance and we stood on the dance floor, kissing.

After a couple more songs of dancing, I stopped. "Thirsty?" I asked.

She nodded, so we made our way through the crowd to the bar.

"Hey, what can I do ya for?" the waitress asked.

I pulled my mind out of the gutter, and let Bella order.

"I'll have a rum and coke," she said.

The girl nodded then turned to me, flashing me a smile. I think it was supposed to be sexy.

"I'll have a Bend me Over," I told her.

"Sure thing, right away," she said with an overly thick flirty voice.

I put my arm around Bella's waist and kissed her forehead, letting the waitress know I was taken, and had no intention to change that.

She left to go make them. We sat in the bar stools, waiting for her to come back with our drinks.

We sat in comfortable silence, my hand interlocked with hers.

"Here you go." The waitress handed us each a glass.

I took a sip of my drink. Bella followed suit. The drink was perfectly made. Not too much alcohol. Some bars made the drink almost entirely alcohol. Those made me sick.

Bella had finished her drink entirely. I finished off the last few sips of mine just as the waitress came around again.

"Would you like another round?" she asked.

"Sure," I said, shrugging. Bella nodded.

"Care to dance?" I asked Alice.

"Hell yeah!" Alice exclaimed. She was already intoxicated.

She grabbed my hands, walking backward as she went to the dance floor. She ran into a guy, and he spun around. "Oops!" she said a little too loud. "Sorry!"

He shrugged her off after seeing my glare. I didn't want him to get any ideas.

"Relax, Jazzypoo. Let's dance!" she said, bouncing up and down.

Jazzypoo? How many drinks had she had so far?

The song was slow and melodic. Alice pressed her body close to mine, and I wrapped my arms around her waist tightly. We rocked to the beat, enjoying the moment in each others arms.

Alice giggled.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing, nothing. Just thinking at high school dances they would have pried us apart already," she said, still laughing.

I pulled her even closer, our bodies now pressed together as much as possible.

"Well it's a damn good thing we aren't in high school, then," I said, winking.

She giggled. Drunk Alice had a lot less worries. I'd have to take her out more often.

She ran her arms down my sides, stopping at my ass. I didn't object.

"Nice ass," she said. I chuckled. I liked this Alice, and she wasn't even completely wasted yet. I made a note not to let her mix drinks. I didn't want her to be throwing up later.

I pressed my lips to her forehead and whispered I love you.

"Love you too, sexy," she replied, causing me to laugh again.

"Why are you laughing at me? I think you're the sexiest here," she said. "Well maybe except that guy," she said pointing to some random person.

I raised an eyebrow, hoping she wasn't serious.

"You know, Al," I started. "If that's true then I'm just going to have to take him down. Can't have competition."

"I was only kidding," she said with a pout.

"Smile, Alice. Happy looks good on you," I said, grinning.

"What?" she asked confused.

"I was kidding too. I don't even think I could take him," I said.

"You so could. He's so scrawny!" she exclaimed.

"Oh, him?" I asked. "I thought you meant him." I pointed to a huge muscled guy.

She laughed. "Nope!"

"You know something?" I asked.

"Yep! I know a lot of things," she replied seriously.

I chuckled. "I like this Alice," I said honestly.

She grinned. "There are many Alice's. You just haven't met them all yet."

My eyes opened wide when I realized what she was implying. "I look forward to a certain Alice..." I let my sentence trail off, but winked.

"I want you to meet her too!" she said. "I know she really wants to meet you."

"I guess this Alice will have to do for now," I told her, pulling her into a kiss. I could taste the alcohol on her lips. It was sweet and fruity, and I couldn't get enough of it.

"Damn, this is really good," I said, taking the last sip of my fifth (sixth?) drink.

"Glad you like it," the waiter said smiling.

Emmett made gagging noises. "Back off, buddy. She's mine," he growled.

"Shut up, you big lug," I told him. He opened his mouth to say something back, and I took the chance to kiss him.

"Wow. I've never seen so much tongue in one kiss," I heard someone say behind me.

I spun around to yell at whoever it was for interrupting, but it was Bella. I grinned. "Oh really? Oh, wait, that's true. You can't see yourself kissing, so of course you haven't. Makes sense," I nodded.

She glared at me. Edward just chuckled.

"Hey!" a waitress came up. "Back for another round?" she asked.

Clearly, she had served Edward and/or Bella tonight.

Bella and Edward both nodded.

The waitress handed them each a drink. Bella drank half her glass before putting her head in her hands.

"Woah," she muttered.

"Bella, what are you even drinking?" Emmett asked her.

"Rum and Coke. Nothing too bad," she replied.

He took it and sniffed it. "Doesn't even smell like there's Coke in it!" he said. He took a sip. "Holy shit! No wonder your head is spinning. Taste this, Edward," he handed the glass to Edward. "There's barely a drop of Coke in it!"

Edward took a sip too. "Holy shit is right," he said. "Bella, have they all been like this?"

She nodded. "Oh who cares!?" she exclaimed.

"Edward, how many has she had?" I asked.

"Four, five. I don't know. I lost count."

"Come onnnnn Edward! Let's go dance some more," she said, her words slurred.

She got up, swaying a little. She grabbed his hand, stumbling to the dance floor. She wasn't even walking straight.

"Alriiiight, ladies and gentleman here tonight!" a voice said from the speakers next to the deejay stand. "You've picked a very lucky night to join us here at Hurricane!" he announced.

People stopped dancing and we gathering around the deejay station to be able to see what was going on. Emmett leaned in close so I could hear him, and practically yelled over the crowd. "Can you see?"

I shook my head.

"Hold on!" he said. He went behind be and put his hands on my waist. Oh Lord. He hoisted me up and put me on his shoulders. I trusted that he wouldn't let me fall, but I was still a little freaked being up that high in the crowd.

"Do you want to know why?" the guy yelled.

"WHY?!" everyone answered.

"What was that?" his voice echoed. "I couldn't hear you!" he said, putting a hand to his ear.

"Why?!" everyone yelled louder. The voices all echoed through the bar.

"That's better!" he called. "Tonight is American Idol night! Ricky-ricky-remixed!"

The crowd boo'd.

"Oh come on," he said. "You get to come on stage, and sing badly on purpose!"

Obviously, this was a gig to get us to 'tell our friends'. They had gimics like this every once and a while. Sometimes they were fun, others – not so much.

I was interested to see how this one would turn out.


A/N: I have two major questions for everyone.

1) How many of you would not be able to read the sequel if it was changed to M? (Currently, I'm still planning on continuing how it is now - using Citrus Fruits. If no one cares though, then I might just change the rating. But otherwise I'll continue the way it is now.) Just as a fair warning, there will be more lemons in the next one. Their relationship is progressing, and now they're living together full-time, so yeah. Let me know. =)

2) What do you want to see happen in the sequel? I have plenty of ideas, but I want to see how many of you have the same thoughts as me, and also if any of you have any other good ideas.

Review with your answers, please! Thanks guys!
