Arriving at La Vache was the point in the evening that everything went downhill. When I stepped out of the car in my "Vera Wang beaded off-the-shoulder dress" (so Alice told me.)
Renee was walking by me towards the door of the restaurant when she accidentally bumped into me. I being as clumsy as I am fell forward onto the ground causing a smudge of dirt to appear on the front of my dress.
"Oh, dear, I'm so sorry!" exclaimed my mother, "What have I done?"
I looked in horror at the face of my mother who seemed to be breaking into tears.
"It's fine Mom, I'm prepared for these spills remember? I'll go to the bathroom and clean up," I looked at Phil who automatically started consoling my mother.
They walked ahead of Jason and I, Jason held me in the brotherliest way I could imagine as if I was about to fall over.
"I'm fine you know," I mentioned.
Jason smiled at me "I know."
When we stepped into the fancy restaurant, the luxury was unseen in Forks and I did a second take before walking into the bathrooms.
The bathrooms were tiled completely and beautiful, I stepped over to the sink and checked myself in the window. I then proceeded to turn on the shiny taps.
I had thought the bathroom was empty and jumped slightly when a sound reverberated through the washroom.
"Hello?" I called a little on edge.
"Hello," a low voice sounded right under my ear as Edward's head appeared there. I could hear him purr slightly and my heartbeat picked up.
"What are you doing here?" I asked turning around.
"Well, I have a strategy on how to win you," Edward whispered.
"And what would that be?" I asked quietly.
"I love that blue on you," he said surveying me with his eyes.
I felt my skin flush red and I looked away, "That's your strategy?" I asked.
Edward chuckled and breathed in my scent, "I'm going to occupy your every thought," I shuddered slightly at the seductive way he said it and he planted a lingering kiss on my neck.
I instinctively tilted my head back so he had better access and he trailed kisses down my chest towards the low neckline of my dress. He being the modest guy he is trailed back up and I moved to kiss him fully on the lips.
Edward pulled back and looked into my eyes and I blinked dozily, he chuckled again and replaced his lips on mine. All I felt was him, all I could hear was his quiet groans of ecstasy and I couldn't help but moan along with him, that was until my mom walked in.
"Bella!" she shrieked, destroying our moment Edward looked up just as shocked as me. "Who is this boy Bella?"
I looked at Edward who stared at Renee as if she was a ghost. "This is Edward mom," I explained cautiously.
"Isn't Edward the boy you came here to avoid, the one who broke up with you causing you to spin into a downward pit of despair?"
"Yes," I mumbled ready to throw up at the memory of my sadness. I looked at Edward and noticed automatically the despair in his eyes.
"Um, I'd like to say that my intentions with your daughter are honorable."
Renee looked at Edward and scoffed, "You told me that before," she yelled before grabbing my wrist and pulling me out of the bathroom. She stormed right past our table with me in tow earning us a few stares.
Out of the corner of my eye I noticed Phil drop a few twenty-dollar bills on the table to pay for the drinks they all must have ordered. He then stood up in confusion and followed us out the door.
"What the hell are you thinking?" she screamed at me throwing my wrist away from her in disgust. "You're supposed to be the sensible one! You're the one who always knew better! Now what? Have you thrown all of your common sense out the window?"
"Mom! You're over reacting!" I yelled back at her.
"Over reacting?" she shrieked even louder yet. "I apologize if my instincts are to protect my baby from the horrible creatures called men! Do you have no self-respect? Do you remember what he did to you?"
"Yes mom! I do!" I screamed tearing up at the anger coming from my mom and the thought of what Edward had done. "I remember every goddamned moment. You don't though because you weren't there! I let you go live with Phil and live your life without me while you sent me off to my doom in forks!"
Renee stared at me absolute fury appearing in her eyes, "You told me to let you go! You asked to stay! For him too! So as soon as it goes sour it becomes my fault?" she asked so angry she wasn't yelling. "Everything's my fault! Everything is about my mistakes, this night was supposed to be a celebration of us being reunited! About the life that is soon to join our family!" she stated hysterically pointing at her belly.
"You're pregnant?" I asked.
"Yes," she sniffed.
I stared at her in shock before Jason spoke up. "What exactly did Bella do?"
Renee stared at Jason for a moment before speaking. "I caught her in the bathroom making out with Edward, the guy from Forks she came here to get away from." She scoffed, "You're so stupid sometimes!" she shrieked again before walking to the car.
Phil followed her silently leaving me with Jason, "Bella," he asked his voice cracking slightly, "Is it true?"
I turned and looked into the heartbreak his eyes contained. Tears that had already been streaming in steady lines down my face sped up as the first sob rocked my frame.
Jason looked at me for a moment and turned away waling away from the car and walked down the street. "Jason!" I called out in between sobs, "Wait!"
He didn't wait and as he walked away and Renee's car pulled away from the restaurant, leaving me stranded. I sat on the ground, the cement of sidewalk as uncomfortable as the knot in my stomach.
Only moments passed before a familiar red M3 BMW. Alice pulled up in front of me her eyes frowning at my tear stained, dirty dress. Alice stepped out and to my surprise Rosalie slid over into the driver's seat. Alice picked me up gracefully and placed me in the back seat. She then jumped over the side and landed in the cramped backseat beside me.
"Oh, Bella," she sighed pulling me into her hard, cold shoulder. Rosalie looked at me emotionless in the rearview mirror and then turned back to the road.
I said nothing as Alice gently stroked my hair, her eyes a warm shade of gold. We pulled up to a house far out of town, right on the beach.
Alice lifted me up silently and cradled me like a huge baby in her dainty arms. We said nothing as Alice carried me through the front doors and into a room that was obviously hers.
It was a bright shade of Yellow, big windows overlooking the ocean and beach. A big bed was placed near the window, there for me obviously. Pictures and beauty products were scattered around the room along with random pictures of us, and the family. It strangely reminded me of a normal teenager's room except for its immense size and cleanliness along with pictures dating back to 1920.
Alice placed me gently on the bed and tucked me in before going to turn off the lights. Light still glowed in from outside and lit up Alice's face beautifully. Rosalie sat out of place at the foot of the bed.
"I'm sorry Bella," she whispered before leaving the room.
Alice held me in her arms and hummed a song, unlike any melody I had ever heard before. Listening to the beautiful tune I fell asleep.
