Previously On If No One Will Listen:

My head hurt like hell as I settled into my usual table and started to eat some macaroni and cheese. "Yum hangover food…" I heard a voice from across from me say. I looked up with a spoon full of mac and cheese only an inch and a half away from my mouth only to see...

Chapter Seven

Only One Thought Came to My Mind: Shit!

I heard a voice from across from me say. I looked up with a spoon full of mac and cheese only an inch and a half away from my mouth only to see the one and only Victoria, James' sort of girlfriend. Also known as Vicky.

She smiled her usual conniving smile at me as her wild fire red hair blazed from the sunlight that was pouring through the windows in the dining hall. "Bella, what a pleasure it is to see you."

I sat my spoon down into my bowl as I nodded towards her. Only one thought came to my mind and it was SHIT!!! "Hello Victoria," I said in a natural tone which kind of surprised me.

"You don't mind if I sit with you do you?" she asked and before I could answer she sat down anyways. "I didn't think so."

"I don't." I said as I sat a little straighter in my seat.

"Good, now it's come to my attention that you had a little confrontation with James last night at one of his parties." She said as she looked at me with her piercing eyes that seemed to match her hair, though really they were a dark brown and not red.

"I did," I said and my voice didn't quiver like I thought it would.

Her eye seemed to narrow a bit as her jaw clenched. "As much as I respect a woman standing up for herself against a man I must say you did it on the wrong man. I don't know when or how you got this idea of being with James but it better stop before something happens."

I raised an eyebrow at her, "Something has already happened Vicky," I said standing up. "Don't play stupid, you know everything that happened you're just so obsessed with him you can't even realize how much of an animal he is." I was about to leave when she grabbed my arm.

"Don't you dare call me stupid and don't you dare say anything bad about the man I love, you know damn well that I can make your life a living hell with a snap of my fingers, don't mess with me Swan because if you do you'll be the one crying." She said in a deadly whisper.

I wrenched my arm out of her grasp making her arm hit the table with a thud. "I've already been the one crying, don't you know?" I asked and her eyes showed no recognition. "It was an alley after the man you love raped me." I said and then walked away towards the entrance only to be wrenched back by someone grabbing me by the hair.

"The hell he did!" she yelled as she slapped me. My face tingled and I felt my fists clench. I grabbed her wrist when she tried to hit me again and I pulled her closer to me.

"You know what I did to your boyfriend, so do you really want to get into a fight with me when you're more my size and he's more like three times mine?" I asked searching her eyes and all I saw was fear.

She whimpered and grabbed her wrist when I released it, "Please." She whispered and I looked at her with anger and slight confusion. "Please tell me he didn't," she pleaded.

I looked at her a little longer and then sighed, "What do you honestly think?" I asked and then turned and walked out of the dining hall and was finally able to breathe fresh air. I walked towards one of the main courtyards finally feeling lighter than I had in a while. After finding a suitable bench I pulled out my notebook and a granola bar with a pencil in tow, and as I chewed on my snack I started to write while frequently watching college kids pass me by seeming so content by the day also.

I was about five pages into whatever I was scribbling about when I came to the conclusion that I needed to talk to Alice and Rose before Emmett or Edward got a hold of them. They would probably yell at me saying something about girl code… I shrugged my shoulders at my own internal conversation. I packed away my things and then pulled out my phone and dialed Alice's number.

"Hello?" she chirped after two rings.

"Hey Alice it's Bella… we need to talk. You, me, and Rose all need to talk." I said and then walked off to probably more tears.

After three hours of talking to Rose and Alice they both finally came to a conclusion- James had to die. Another hour and a half was spent with me trying to convince them that it was nice of them to offer but really it wasn't needed. "So who all knows?" Alice asked as she wiped her cheeks to rid her of her tears that she had shed when I was telling my story.

"You two plus Emmett and Edward…" I said as my shoulders shagged.

"So Jasper doesn't?"

I shook my head with a sigh. "Not that I know of though Emmett and Edward might have told him… I don't know."

Rose ran a hand through her hair with a sigh. "I can't keep a secret from him Bella; you have to tell him… he'll get mad if it isn't from you." Alice said as she started to pace in front of her bed.

"I'll call him and we'll talk, you don't have to say anything Alice I promise." I said and she nodded with a sigh and then slumped back down on her bed.

"I'll see you guys later alright… I'm gonna go talk to Jasper…" I said and then got up but I didn't leave without two big hugs filled with comforting squeezes and pats.

"Hey this is Jasper's cell, I can't make it to the phone right now so leave me a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible." I heard Jasper's voice mail say and I quickly hung up and headed towards Emmett's dorm room.

I knocked on the door with reluctance and right as the door opened a thought struck me- didn't Edward room with Emmett… "Bella?" the velvet voice said as I glared at the floor. Only one thought came to my mind and that was SHIT!!!

"Hey Edward… is my brother here by any chance," I mumbled still looking at the floor and I swear I heard him chuckle.

"Uh yeah he's in here with Jasper we were about to play a video game, you can come in if you'd like." He said and I looked up just as he opened the door wider so that I could see Emmett and Jasper on someone's bed as they held controllers to some game system.

"Hey Bella how are ya feeling?" Jasper asked with ease and I knew that they hadn't told him.

"A little queasy but that's not from the liquor… I just finished talking to Rose and Alice." I said and Emmett coughed and then grabbed his jacket.

"You know Edward how about you and I run and get some beer from Bella's fridge," Emmett said as he threw Edward's jacket at him.

Edward smiled sadly at me and then nodded to Emmett and they both headed out. "Jasper we need to talk…" I trailed off as I walked towards the bed he was sitting on.

He smiled kindly and shook his head, "Bella I know."

I shook my head at him and then sighed. "No you don't."

"No Bella I know," he said and he got up and gave me a hug. "Does it still hurt?" he asked as he kissed my head.

"How did you-" I started to ask but he quickly cut me off.

"I asked Chris the day after the big blow out at the dining hall between you, James, and him. I promised him I wouldn't tell anyone because he was afraid it set you back and he just didn't know if you could go through another one."

I felt myself grip onto him tighter as though he was my life support. "I'm sorry Bells… I just wish you could have come to me or Emmett at least. We wouldn't have made you do anything you didn't want to do… All of us wouldn't including Edward. I've got to say for a smart girl you make some shitty decisions." He said and I let out a choked laugh.

"I do don't I?" I asked as I tried to wipe my tears. Something about Jasper just made you want to pour your heart out and cry.

"Yup but it's okay because we're going to fix everything," he said as he patted my back and rubbed it soothingly.

"You know Jasper has it ever occurred to you that you should be a psychiatrist?" I asked as I moved away from him and set on the dark blue bed that was actually made up.

He shrugged with a light smile. "I've been told that on occasions…"
