'"Sure" He smiled as I got out of his silver Volvo. I closed the door and waved at him through the window. After he drove away I smiled as I walked up the steps and leaned on the door to afraid to walk for the fear I might fall off of my feet. As soon as his car was out of sight I jumped with joy. "YES! Alice will never believe me!" I quickly ran up the stairs to my apartment readying myself for Alice's water works.'

It didn't take me long to arrive at my room, which was on the 10th floor, but it did take me a long time to work up the courage to actually go in the room. I was afraid I might find a dead Emmett or a sobbing Alice. After about 5 minuets I knew I'd have to face the music sooner or later and I preferred sooner. When I opened the apartment door I froze.

Emmett was on one side of the room, while Alice was on the other. They looked like they had just been fighting. My eyes searched for Jasper, afraid he might have been torn into pieces. Thankfully he was just hiding behind the couch and in front of the window. I sighed, happy that no one was dead 'yet' I added as an after thought in my head.

I walked in and closed the door. Slowly I turned around to face them all. "So" I started "What's wrong now?" As soon as I had asked I regretted it.

"Well you already know what Emmett did!" Yelled Alice.

"What I did? I was the victim here! It's what you did Alice!" Emmet shouted back. Jasper raised his head and gave me an apologetic face.

"I think we were all victims here…" He said quietly. Emmett started laughing while Alice gave him a questioning expression, as did I. "Well, I mean, we all know what happened here with us three but, what we don't know is, what Bella was doing this whole time. She got home unusually fast…" I glared at him as Emmett stopped laughing and Alice gasped. He gave me a pleading look before he continued. "And I think I saw a Volvo pull up outside of the apartment not more than 10 minuets ago, and I know someone that looked like Bella came out of the car…" He never got to finish what he was saying because I wouldn't let him. I grabbed the nearest thing I could find (a phone book) and threw it at him. Luckily He stopped in time, but not soon enough to save me.

"Bella" Emmet growled "Where were you?"

"The library, I swear!" I knew my pleading was hopeless.

"At the library with whom?" Alice squealed.

"Someone…" I said quietly. Alice smiled and ran over to me.

"Someone? Oh I need Details!!" Ignoring Emmett and Jasper all together she pulled me into her room and locked the door. She sat me down on her bed as she sat on her chair. "Who is this 'someone'?" she asked.

"Yeah, who is this someone?" Emmett yelled from the outside of my room. I hesitated.

"He's just someone who works at the library…" I said loud enough for both of them to hear.

"Wait, a he? It's a he?!" Emmet growled as he slowly got mad. Alice on the other hand got excited.

"Oh, what's his name?" She asked nearly pushing me off the bed in the process.

"His name is Edward, Edward Mason." After I spoke I heard Jasper growl for the first time ever.

"NO! OH HELLS TO THE NO BELLA!" Alice and I jumped, and even though I was frightened to see his face right now I walked over to the door and opened it. He continued talking. "Bella, he and I used to be friends and I know what he's like." I leaned on the door frame.

"'used' to be friends? What happened?" Jasper hesitated.

"Well." He started "He's in some of my classes at MCC, and we got along at first, but I soon learned how he treated girls."

"It can't be that bad Jasper." I said. He shook his head.

"Bella, he uses girls like tissues! And then he misses the trash can and just leaves them around EVERYWHERE! You will not be one of those girls!" I hesitated.

"But-but he seemed so, so nice…." Jasper shrugged.

"So does a mountain lion, but you don't pet it." Jasper paused. "I'm sorry Bella, I really am…"

"Don't be." I tried to smile. "He was just a boy…" Emmett smiled.

"That's my Bells." He put his arms around Alice and Bella. "Now it's time for you two to get some sleep. Night!" He called as he dragged Jasper out of the apartment. Alice laughed and closed her bedroom door.

"You so don't believe him do you?" She asked as she made her way over to her closet.

"Not until I see it Alice, not until I see it." I heard Alice laugh as I left her room and made my way over to mine, silently praying that Jasper was wrong.
