The weeks passed quickly without another encounter between Bella and Edward. Alice had mentioned something about a relapse with Edward and Bella had wanted to believe it to be untrue but the way Edward avoided her and seemed agitated seemed to tell her Alice wasn't lying.

Bella was at the Cullen's like she usually was when Charlie worked the night shift. She was going to the bathroom to brush her teeth when she bumped into Edward. Literally bumped into him. Her cast had just come off the day before and her ankle was still trying to adjust when she wasn't paying attention to her surroundings as he left his room. She smacked into him and would have been hurtled backwards if he hadn't caught her so quickly her chest that was barely covered in a white lace cami was pressed against his. Her legs had slid between his so they were pressed together at the waist.

Edwards head spun at the scent of her. He had forgotten how beautiful she was until she was pressed against him. Her hair was pulled into a high ponytail. Makeup from the day gone no glasses she was just Bella. He turned his head quickly and set her to her feet still resting his hands on her arms to brace her. Bella watched him fidget around his eyes scanning the room quickly for a exit. His pupils were dilated and he rubbed his nose quickly. He was high. Bella shook her head and pushed away from him slamming the bathroom door and locking it.

She slid down the front of the sink into a puddle of tears. She didn't care if he heard her. She thought he had been doing so go she had been doing so good. Pounding on the door broke her out of her thoughts. " Bella open the door I need to talk to you." Bella wiped the tears before more could fall blinking away the burn of more. " No Cullen I have nothing to say to you. Please just leave me alone." Edward rested his hands on the door pounding again. " Bella open up I have to talk to you just hear me out."

Bella sighed and splashed cold water on her face before finally opening up to him. He slid in the door and sat down on the floor. Before Bella could protest he pulled her down into his arms and cradled her into his arms. " Bella please hear me out I wish I had a better explanation, but I don't I just cant handle things on my own. And then there was that thing that happened a couple of weeks ago and it scared the shit out of me Bella. I've never felt that way before and so I ran to what I always did when things got to hard for me. Cocaine and I shouldn't have. Because You've been helping me Bella weather you know that or not you have."

Bella sighed and removed herself from Edwards lap and sat across from him with her head in her hands. " Edward I fight the itch everyday. I may not do drugs or ever have but it feels the same its this itch that if you don't just give into you feel like you will crawl out of your skin. But I have fought it Edward its been almost a year since my last episode and I've been there just last week I almost didn't get out of bed Edward. Thankfully Alice text me and I got my mind together and pulled myself from bed because if I stayed in bed that day Charlie would have had me hospitalized. So I don't want to hear about things getting too hard its no excuse for drugs. And if that's what your going to do with your life than I want to be no part of it."

Fear flashed across Edwards face ever since he had met Bella and touched her he knew he couldn't live his life without her in it. He would prove himself to her and gain her trust again he couldn't keep hurting her anymore she made him want him to be a better person. She brought out the best in him . A Edward he hadn't been in years.

The weeks continued to pass on and soon before anyone realized it prom was upon them. Edward was still using drugs as an escape and Bella stayed true to her words and stayed clear of him. Jasper and Alice felt bad for Bella they had assumed that Bella would be attending prom with Edward. When that fell through they offered to go as a trio but Bella told them she wouldn't be a third wheel. Word got around La Push and Jacob offered to escort Bella to her Junior Prom.

The girls primed and preened the entire day while the guys played video games and went hunting earlier on in the day. Luckily dress shopping had been relatively harmless and Bella found a dress all on her own that she loved and knew the girls would approve of. Her hair and makeup was done and she was just slipping on her dress when the doorbell rang signaling the arrival of the boys. Alice squealed with excitement as she heard her father usher the young men down into the family room. Esme ushered Rose and Alice out the door to leave Bella to get dressed on her own she wanted the girls to be surprised when she came down. Everyone was downstairs exchanging corsages and boutonnières when Esme let out a surprised sigh.

" Oh Bella…" Alice let out a dreamy sigh and actually had tears in her eyes at the sight of her friend. Bella's dress was a beautiful midnight blue strapless tulle dress. The bodice fit just right with a large satin ribbon below it collecting at the side with a broach the tulle bottom flowed out at the side and was just above the knee the tulles print made it look as if though they were peacock feathers. Her hair was pulled into a elegant pony tail that was curled down her back. Her eyes sparkled beautifully with a light Smokey sprinkling of dark blue and silver eye shadow. Jacob too looked extremely handsome in a black tux with midnight blue vest.

Alice had never been so proud of her friend as she was at that moment while her brother gazed jealously from the kitchen at her and her date. Alice spun in a circle for her mother and father to admire in her canary yellow plaid dress it was strapless with a black ribbon just below the bodice coming out in a bubble skirt that stopped just above her knees. She had her hair pinned in delicate pin curls adorned with a beautiful crystal tiara. Her dress matched Jasper in his black tux and yellow vest.

Rosalie was the epitome of a prom queen in a strapless floor length white dress that had silver beading below the bodice that continued along her hip line the bottom flowed down to the floor like what reminded Bella of a toga. Her hair was also pulled up into a up do with strategically placed pin curls and beautiful white and fuchsia orchid pined above her left ear.

Everyone was interrupted from their blissful moment by a almost feral snarl from the kitchen as Edward stormed past them and out the front door. After everyone regrouped and posed for about a million more pictures they headed out to the limo and to dinner.

Bella was enjoying herself and Jake was one of her closest friends but he really lacked where conversation was. They had gone out to this Italian place in town and he just stuffed his face and chatted with the boys barely paying her any attention. She would be happy for the dance to come soon.

The school was decorated with thousands of twinkling lights there were satin curtains and fountains throughout the school grounds almost making it look like a fairytale land. Everyone stopped to take pictures when they first arrived so they could dance right away. Bella had to say she was pretty excited by the time her and the girls finished checking their bags they wove their way to the table to find their dates. After a few songs the boys decided to sit a few out while their girls danced around. Bella was laughing at something Rose had said when Alice let out a shriek. " Oh my god I love this song!" Bella laughed as Bad Romance by Lady Gaga blared through the gyms speakers.

She was so into the beat of the music and spinning around rose and Alice that she barely noticed him walk in. She had just finished turning so that she could point at Emmett and Jasper to sing to them when she saw him. He was pressed against the back wall looking painfully beautiful in a all black tux his hair was still unruly as ever and he had a slight 5o'clock shadow but he looked so manly. Jacob looked like mere boy in comparison to Edward. Bella didn't realize she had stopped dancing until Emette was in front of her down on one knee holding her hand and serenading her " I don't want to be friends….Want your bad romance." Bella chuckled and continued to dance with her best friends. The song finally ended and they announced a slow song as Bella headed back to the table to retrieve her date she soon realized she couldn't find him anywhere.

Bella sat out the next few songs disappointed that Jacob would leave her like that. When the school's principle announced it would be time to announce this years prom king and queen. Everyone had taken their seats back at her table and were sipping their waters when Alice finally piped in. " Hey Bells where is Jake?" Bella shrugged and pointed her finger over to the back corner of the gym. Alice couldn't see over all of the people so she had to stand to see. Unfortunately for Jacob, Rose had spotted him first and was already stalking to the back of the gym cup in hand.

" What in the fuck do you think your doing Jacob Black you are suppose to be Bella's date and here you are with some tramp straddling your lap sucking faces you ought to be ashamed of yourself because Bella looks beautiful and you rather spend your night with a hooker." With that being said she tossed her drink at Jacobs face and stormed back to her table.

Bella put her arms around Rose resting her cheek against her friends shoulder. " Thank you Rose but you didn't have to do that for me." Rose chuckled and kissed her friend on the head. " I did and you don't need him sweetheart that's what best friends are for." Alice not one to miss a sweet moment perched herself on Bella's lap and wrapped her arms around her best friends. " Aw I love you guys so much. And Bella you look beyond beautiful I'm so proud of you." Everyone was pulled from their conversation by the principle again.

" And this years Prom King and Queen are….Miss Isabella Swan and Edward Cullen."

Bella turned her head to her friends who were trying to pull her up off of her chair. " Hurry up Bella they called you! Go get your crown." Bella could barely move she was in utter shock she slowly wound through the crowd when she saw Edward standing on the Stage smiling offering her his hand. He pulled her up next to him and tucked her into his side so that he could place her beautiful crown on her head as the principle announced their dance together.

The crowed had dispersed from the middle of the gym floor as the spotlight illuminated it for them. Edward took Bella's hands in his own settling his left hand around her waist pulling her in close. Bella sighed pressing the side of her cheek against his neck tilting her nose down into his shoulder. They swayed softly to the music and Bella forgot that she had been mad at him. " Bella there are no words to say how beautiful you look tonight that Black kid is an idiot, but then again so am I. I should have been the one to bring you here tonight not him and I royally messed up I'm so sorry Bella." Bella couldn't answer him as she continued to sway to the song listening to the words as they played.

And all the time you were telling ' me lies

So tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

Tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

I'm gonna hold on to the times that we had tonight

I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?

Well you could try sleeping in my bed

Edward released Bella's one hand so that he could turn her in a delicate spin. When she went to turn her head he moved it over with his thumb so that she could look at his face.

Lonely, own me nobody ever shut it down like you

You wore the crown

You made my body feel heaven bound

Why don't you hold me

Need me, I thought you told me

You'd never leave me

Looking in the sky I could see your face

And I know right where I fit in

Take me, make me, you know that I'll always be in love

With you

Right til the end ooh

The song didn't even have a chance to end when Edward took Bella's hand in his own and led her from the school. Once they were outside in the privacy of the courtyard Edward pressed Bella against the side of the building. The bass from the music was thumping in her head as Edward placed his lips against her throat peppering it with small kisses. She fisted his hair between her hands pulling his head up to hers before kissing him on the lips. The kiss was soft at first as he let out a content sigh but soon the kiss turned frenzied an he fought to keep up with Bella. He knew he wouldn't last if she kept up the way she was the little sounds she was making were going straight to his pants. He wouldn't do this to her not here pressed up against the school. He gently placed his hands on either side of her face and pulled away tracing her lips that had become swollen from all the nips and kisses and kissed her forehead taking her hand in his own and pulled her toward the car giving her hand a squeeze.

Before Bella knew it they were at the Cullen's house and she was standing in the middle of he sunroom. The moon shone brightly through the windows of the sunroom casting of bright shadows between the trees. Bella could see the stars from where she was standing. She was admiring the room when Edward picked her up and pinned her to the wall behind him. Bella watched him intently as his fingers danced along her face down to her neck where he placed a soft kiss.

This kiss was different however than any of the others they had shared this kiss said something. I love you.
