"I got you something." He said to me as he reached into his jacket pocket. We were standing outside my dorm after our anniversary dinner. I tried very hard not to roll my eyes at him. I had told him not to get me anything. It was our one year anniversary. We'd been going out for a whole year! It hardly seemed that long. Even now I expected to wake up and be a freshman again, nervous about college.

He finally produced a black velvet box and handed to me. Inside lay the most beautiful charm bracelet I had ever seen. On one side was a book, a paintbrush, my birthstone, a pair of ballet slippers, and my initial. As a child I had done ballet but had stopped as soon as my teacher tried to get me on stage. When I told Edward this he convinced me to start up again and I was forever thankful he had.

On the other side was a football, a music note, his birthstone, a star, and his initial. He was always so fasinated with the stars. He had told me on one of our first dates that as a child he had thought there was a star for every love there was. He had been convinced that there was one up there for his love for football and one for his family. The first time he told me he loved me he also said that there was one more star up there and it was the brightest of them all. Inbetween the two initials was a heart.

"It took me forever to find one with arrows going through it," he said as I brushed my fingers over it, "I wanted to show that Cupid's arrow hit me when I saw you." The tears that had been threatening finally fell as I kissed him.

"I won't ever take it off." I told him. He gave me his crooked smile.

"Promise?"

"As long as you promise to never let me go."

"I don't think thats necessary. Theres no way I'll ever let anyone have you." I laughed.

"That's not your decision. For all you know, I could be cheating on you with your running back." I laughed as he frowned.

"You really know how to ruin a moment." he sighed.

"I also know how to get it back." I whispered. I laughed as he scooped me up and carried me upstairs to my room, placing light kisses all over my face the whole way.


"Edward, what happened to you?" Alice asked. She stood up and went into the kitchen before coming back with an ice pack, handing it to him. He glanced at me as he put the ice pack on his black eye. I got a smug satisfasction at the sight. Is that sick? Hell no! Ass deserved it.

"Umm, the girl had a boyfriend." he muttered. Yeah, definitly deserved it. I heard Rose snicker.

"The girl had a boyfriend? Well maybe if you actually talked to her before trying to get her into bed than you would have known that!" Alice laughed. So I wasn't the only one enjoying this. Edward's whole face turned the color of a tomato. Wow, I don't think I've ever seen him blush before.

"Alice, can we please not get into this here?" He begged. Alice rolled her eyes.

"Why not? It's me and Emmett, who you've told everything to, Jasper and Rose, who we've told everthing to, and Bella and Jake, who will have everything told to them once we figure out what to do with you." Alice said. And this is where I get to butt in.

"Actually, I think it's because of me that he doesn't want to explain." I told Alice awkwardly. She was so gonna kick my ass for this. She spun around with a confused look on her face."You know that girl Rose was talking about at lunch?" I asked, receiving nods in return. "Yeah, that was me."

"Well, Edward told us everything except for that." Alice stuttered. Edward was staring at me around the ice pack. If I wasn't worried about Alice hating me I would have flicked him off.

"Wait, you went out with Edward Masen for two years and never told me?" Jacob asked. I could hear the hurt in his voice and I hated Edward even more for all of this.

"She never told you guys about me?" And he had the nerve to sound hurt too. I just wanted to kill him. How dare he walk into my life and try to make me feel guilty about anything?

"Okay, first of all, by the time I met anybody here other than Rose, you were in my past. There really wasn't a need for me to tell them since it never came up. On the other hand, we dated for two years and you A, never told me you had siblings, and B, never told said siblings about me!" I yelled. I saw the humor flash in Alice's eyes before the anger kicked in.

"I swear to god, Edward, Rose had better have lied about what you did to Bella. I was already going to rip your ass to shreds for what you did to some stranger. If you did that shit to Bella, I'm going to rip you dick to shreds." She growled.

"Alice, you don't know the whole story! Since when do you jump to conclusions?" Edward asked as he placed the icepack on the coffee table. All I could do was stare at him. Jacob chose that moment to come out of his frozen state.

"Bella, when you get all this shit sorted out, call me. Until then, leave me alone." he told me quietly as he passed on his way to the door.

"Jack, wait. We can talk about this now. Just let me do something first." I waited until he nodded before heading back to my room to grab something. I returned with it and tossed it at Edward.

I caught it with his good arm and looked at it. Immediately he started shaking his head. "Bella, I'm not taking this. It was a gift. It's yours."And for a moment my heart broke. The look on his face with the hurt in his voice was just so utterly heartbreaking. Until I realized who I was dealing with and I was filled up with anger and disgust again.

"I don't want it anymore. It obviously doesn't mean anything to you, why should it mean anything to me?" I pulled Jacob with me out of the apartment. The ride to his place was silent and I was thankful for that. I needed to get my thoughts straight. He gave me until we were in his aparment before turning on me.

"What the hell, Bella?"


I know this chapter really really short, but I wanted all of this together and nothing else. Theres a link to the charm bracelet on my profile. Each charm is important so remember them! Some of them are pretty obvious, like the football.

There is an EPOV coming up and you little pretties will get to see what the hell Edward is thinking throughout the whole story. Yes, it will all be one chapter. I can't tell you when, but there will be one. I will tell you that it might come sooner rather than later if you show your love in the form of a review :)
