E POV
When I first saw the villa I was gob smacked, it was amazing! I could tell we were all going to have a really good time here. Emmett and Jasper were clearly thinking the same thing as me, because they both had the stupidest smiles on their faces.
We had just got all our suitcases through the door when we heard another car pull up the drive, we looked at each other and our grins grew. Time to see the (hopefully) hot girls we would be staying with.
Emmett was the first one to the door, but when he looked out of it his eyes turned wide, and not in a good way. Jasper and I rushed over to see what he was staring at, and when I saw I also turned wide eyed.
Oh..My.God! It couldn't be them, could it? I looked closer, it was! Alice, Rosalie and, I winced as I thought the name, Bella. What the hell were they doing here?
We had all been good friends in high school, well more than friends actually, we were all couples. Emmett and Rose, Jasper and Alice, and Bella and I. But it hadn't ended well – for any of us.
It was the last night of the summer before we all went off to school, so we had decided to spend it all together on a triple date. The girls were all really excited about it, or so it seemed, and had been planning their outfits for months. We were all going to meet at some fancy restaurant, then go for a walk and maybe to the cinema afterwards.
It was all planned out to be a pretty special night; the night I also wanted to tell Bella that I loved her. I knew Emmett and Jasper had also been planning on doing the same thing. So it was a huge shock when none of the girls turned up. I was heartbroken, we waited for hours, and tried calling their mobiles countless times, but we couldn't get hold of them. We knew that something wasn't right, and were petrified that something had happened to them. Anyway, we all went home, depressed and tired.
The next morning, I remember Emmett calling me from outside the door, and I knew by the sound of his voice that he'd had news of the girls.
I opened the door and he sank down to his knees, explaining that he'd got hold of Rosalie and the girls, saying that they'd said they hated us all and they were going to stay with Alice's parents for a few months.
That feeling, that horrid feeling of loss and betrayal, had never truly left, and to this day, none of us had understood why the girls had left us that night, and none of us had dated since, apart from Emmett with Lauren, who we all knew he never even truly liked.
So it was a bit of a shock to us when we saw them through that doorway, to say the least! I slowly closed my mouth, and let my eyes wander over Bella. I felt the hole in my chest re-open as I took in her breathtakingly beautiful looks, she hadn't changed one bit. And I loved her; I knew it. Even though what they had done was horrible, I couldn't stop the way I'd felt about her for all those years.
The girls were all staring at us wide eyed too, hopefully feeling pretty damn guilty at the sight of us. Boy, was this going to be an interesting trip. I shook my head slightly, not truly believing how this was happening, when I saw Rosalie advancing on us.

B POV
Was that, no it couldn't be…. Edward?? I felt my heart split right down the middle, my chest pounding. He was here? They all were, why? My head spun as I remembered the last time we had spoken to them.
It was our last night together after summer, so we had planned a special evening; Edward and I, Emmett and Rose, and Jasper and Alice. We were all couples, and we truly loved each other, though we never got a chance to say it. If I remember rightly, we were all going to meet at the cinema, then go to some fancy restaurant afterwards. It was going to be a really special night.
When the guys didn't show up at the cinema however, we started to worry a little. We tried calling them on their phones several times, but the calls kept failing; we figured they were just rejecting them. Well, to cut it short, it was the worst night of my life, they clearly didn't want us anymore, and we all went home, crying our eyes out.
We decided that there was no point in staying for now, so we packed up and left for Alice's parents, who said we could stay for a while. Then, the morning after, Rose's cell started ringing. I remember exactly how the conversation went:
"Oh my gosh, it's Emmett, what do I do?" Rosalie exclaimed.
"Answer it! Tell them what we think of them and that we're leaving!" I shouted back, almost aggressively.
She nodded and picked up the still ringing phone. "Emmett," She said, confidence now ringing in her voice, "what you did last night was inexcusable and none of us will ever forgive you." I remember hearing the sound of Emmett pleading on the other end. "No! And we are leaving. To Alice's parents. We do not want to be hearing from you!" Then she hung up, tears stinging all of our eyes.
I just remember nodding to them, and heading out the door. Leaving the guys behind. That there, that second, was the most heartbreaking second of my whole life, and I knew that I would never be able to forgive them.
And now they were here! On our vacation with us; I couldn't think of anything worse. Then I saw Rosalie heading towards the boys, and boy did she look angry! Alice and I glanced at each other before running after her, but it was too late she was already screaming at the top of her voice.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE??" She shrieked.
"Rose, c'mon, calm down! They're not going to be staying here. They're leaving!" Alice led her back to where we were standing, but not before shooting an evil glance at the 3 bewildered looking guys in the doorway.
" Leaving? Why would we be leaving??" Shouted Jasper, which surprised me a little, I remember him as a fairly quiet person. That caused Alice to whip around again.
"Well, we're not going, and I don't see that I want to stay here with you!" She pointed at the three of them.
That just started another round of arguing, Emmett and Rose joining in too. I completely blanked off. This was way, way too much, and I felt myself becoming light-headed.
I felt myself start to fall when two strong arms caught me. I was about to protest when I looked up into Edward's eyes, making me swallow back my words. His eyes held so much love, but why?? He didn't even like me, he stood me up! I was ready to spend my life with him, and he didn't even care.
I pushed him away, with an obvious look of confusion plastered over my face, and was about to turn around when I heard his voice, soft and pleading.
"Why Bella? Why did you leave that night?" His voice got slightly harsher, but not much. "I loved you, and you just never turned up!"
I took and step back, I never turned up? What was he going on about? This was way too much for me to handle. Then I felt it, the blackness closing in around me, and I could hear Rosalie and Alice's muffled screams, as I slipped into unconsciousness.
AN: Sooo sorry for the wait! I've had exams, so I haven't had time to update.
Ok, so I know this was a pretty boring chapter, but it will get better! I've started the next chapter, so it will probably be up sometime over the weekend, or early next week.
Pleeeeease Review...I'm more likely to update faster! :
