AN: I own nothing… Thank you to those who reviewed last chapter. I'm so so sorry for the long wait on this next chapter. I could go into long detail about school and work. But I think I'll just jump into the chapter…

Last Chapter: "Jasper has already agreed to stay the night, you'll stay too Rose, right? We could have one big sleepover." Alice says pulling away from Rose.

"Yeah sure." Rose says as Alice starts to jump around, saying something about getting the air mattresses and sleeping bags.

The five of us end up setting up a sleeping area in the entertainment room. We each have a twin sized mattress seeing as the "Cullen" family rule is that if you're dating you can't sleep together under their roof.

EPOV-

Our mattresses are set up in a circle so that we can continue to talk after getting into our beds. It's Alice's idea to play truth or dare, though going by her rules we will only being playing truth, since the house was too cold to get out of bed to do a dare and the storm outside made it unsafe to go out there.

"Ok I should go first." Alice announces as she turns towards Rose who is on her left. "Who was your first kiss?"

Rose blushes as she looks at Emmett. "Robbie Palmer." She giggles as Emmett's moth hangs open.

"But I thought…" Emmett starts before he is shushed by Alice.

"Nope Em it's not your turn, so stay quiet."

Rose looks between Jasper, Emmett, and I as she thinks of whom to ask a question of. Emmett's practically bouncing out of his bed trying to get her to pick him.

"Edward…" She says as she pauses. "Emmett tells me you write poems. Have you ever published any?"

"Um, yeah a few years back I entered a contest online and my poem was chosen. It's published under a different name though." I say as I become aware that I now have to ask someone a question.

"Emmett, do you have a secret talent? If so what is it?" I finally ask.

"Um…" Emmett got this goofy look on his face as he thought about it. "Rose taught me how to do a back handspring. Finally my turn!" He says making it seem like he's had to wait hours for his turn. "Jasper, what would you do for a Klondike bar?"

"Em what kind of question is that?" Jasper says as he attempts and fails at containing his laughter.

"It's your question so answer it." Emmett laughs out.

"I would jump into your pool in the middle of winter." I can't help but laugh as Jasper answers. "Ok Alice your turn, describe your best dream."

"Oh! Well last week when i was sleeping I had a dream that my fashion line took off and I was featured on Americas Next Top Model and Tyra Banks had me make her a unique dress for the show. It was a really great dream. Ok Edward your turn again, if you could meet one famous person alive or dead who would it be?"

"I wouldn't mind meeting Edgar Allan Poe." I say before I am cut off by Alice.

"He's the one that says "Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary." I laugh at her.

"Among other things like, "Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before." Jasper says as he looks at me with a small smile on his face. I could feel my face heat up as I thought of what question I should ask.

"Jasper, what is one unique thing you're afraid of?"

"Unique?" I could practically see the gears turning as he thinks about my question. "It's not unique but I'm afraid of bees."

Rose lets out a laugh before adding that she and Jasper are both allergic to bee stings and always have to be taken to the hospital after getting stung.

We played a few more rounds before deciding to call it a night. There was only one light on and soon everyone fell into a peaceful sleep.

Everyone but me, I stayed away looking at Jasper, thinking about what we were doing. Wondering why I had kissed him and what I was doing.

"Boy this is your fault. You are worthless and you ruin everything. You should just disappear, no one will miss you. You just screw up everyone's lives." A memory of Phil filled my thoughts; there was nothing I could do as my past caught up to me. Phil had dragged me to the bathroom and ripped off my shirt. "Look at you with your discussing scars. Who would ever want that?" Phil laughs as he touches my bare chest tracing the scars that HE had given me.

I wake suddenly my heart threatening to pound out of my chest. There was a small sliver of sunlight coming in through the window and as I looked around I noticed I was the only one awake. Quietly I made my way towards the bathroom, not even bothering to lock the door as I lift my shirt over my head. I use one of my fingers to trace the repulsive and horribly ugly scars that I bore. I'm unsure how long I stood there and when I finally looked up into the mirror I could see my eyes puffy and red. Bringing my hand to my face I wipe away tears that I was unaware I had been shedding. I quickly wash my face with cool water and make my way back towards my sleeping bag and quickly fall back to sleep.

The next time I wake up the sun is shining brightly and Alice is calling out all our names telling us that its time to wake up, before she exits the room.

Yawning as I stretch I notice that Jasper is no where in sight, Emmett and Rose who were starting to make out, both still in their sleeping bags. Suddenly the room felt too small for the three of us and I made my exit, deciding to see where Alice and Jasper were.

The smell of French toast and bacon and eggs met me as I came down the stairs, following the soft mummer of Alice's and Jasper's voices. When I opened the door to the kitchen I could see Jasper with an apron on over his pj's, he was bent over the stove flipping a slice of French toast as Alice talked about a guy named Tyler. I softly cleared my throat, in order to kind of announce my presence to them since they seemed to be distracted.

"Edward." Jasper says as he turns towards me. "How did you sleep?" He asks as he comes towards me, totally forgetting about the food he was cooking.

"Fine and you?" I ask as I turn my attention to Alice, "Good morning to you too Alice."

AN: ok I know it's short and not much happened. I just needed to post so you all know I will continue to write I just have one more month of school left for this semester. Please as always review, they make me want to update :)
