She continued to stare me down - "Bella, I can explain"I started but she narrowed her eyes to silence me. It worked. "I already know" she hissed. She had no idea how seductive she sounded. As if she could read my thoughts, she glowered at me in disgust. "Carlise - bless you for helping me at the hospital - same for you Esem, looking after me - good day." and with that she turned and walked away.

Chapter 14: Eat Your Heart Out Edward

Bella POV

I couldn't belive him. Edward - my Edward had cheated on me with another girl. I wanted to cry as I walked away from him, Esme and Carlise, but..I couldn't. I held back my tears and turned my glare, icy. That bastard had ditched me easily. And I even thought he loved me, that he cared for me, that he'd look after me, protect me from harm. But harm was him. Esme had warned me as I walked out of the hospital, that Edward wouldn't be home, and that something had happened. Now being me - I worried and I felt even more stress coming on.

Carlise had explained to me what had happened, why I'd had the heart attacks and what I had to do to avoid them. No stress, stop worring and plenty of rest for the rest of the week. But the fact that I had gone to his home, waited for him - tired to distract myself with Alice's torture and then walked outside and evesdropped his story. I was pretty heartbroken - I'd trusted him. This tells me that I should of never ever trusted him.

I got home and the door banged open as I kicked it. Charlie jumped in his seat on the sofa and ran towards me, giving me a tight speeze. I grunted as I pulled him off. "Dr Cullen said I had to rest dad." He nodded. "Ok, get to bed." I looked at him. "Not that kind of rest - just stress-free kind of stress." He shurrged his shoulders and went to sit back in his seat. I grunted again as I walked upstairs and fell down on my bed. I closed my eyes and imeadiantly feel asleep.

It was two days afterwards and still no contact. He didn't seem to care and I was determined to make him pay or resist me. Alice had still left all the fancy clothes in my wardobe and as I scanned through them to find something decent I thought, well not decent? Make him regret everything? I felt so evil as I pulled on a dark blue dennim short shorts and a strapless dark red top. i wore a simple black leather jacket on top. This was so unlike me but I thought, who cares? I pulled it togerther with some black sunglasses and walked outside to my new car.

Seeing as it had been only a few days - Charlie had bought me a new car. I'd already had my rant at him about it - but today seemed a good day to reveal it. Even Edward din't know about it. Crazy dad - he'd bought me an Aston martin DB9. How on earth he had the money - he'd promised that he'd return it if I didn't like it.

I got into it and it was surpisingly easy to drive - despite me being new to flappy-paddly gear boxes. I drove smoothly donw the street, on the highway and before I knew it I was pulling into the parking lot. Everyone gasped as I drove in and parked furthuest away from his stupid shinny Volvo. I turned my radio off and opened the door. As I walked away, I raised my hand above my head, with the key in and locked it.

My high heels clicked clopped as I walked across the lot, everyone staring and dropping their keys on the florr with a clang. I didn't even look torwards his car as I really didn't cared. Even though my heart ached to walk over there and snuggle into him - I still had my pride to deal with.

As I walked, I looked up and found Alice dancing on the spot. She seemed please at my clothes. I walked quicker and she linked hands with me. But not before I caught a glismpe of bronze-spkies. Eat your heart out Edward.

EDWARD POV

"Edward Cullen - get your butt down here before we're late - AGAIN!" Alice screamed from downstairs. Why did she always force me to school?! I walked downstairs, running my hands through my bronze-spiked hair - trying to remember how it felt when Bella had run her hands through it. I didnt get close to the same effect.

I got in my Volvo and drove Alice, Emmett, Roaslie and Jasper to school, parking in our normal space. I hadn't seen Bella's red truck at all and we were slightly late. Then suddendly I heard loads of whispers coming from the other students, pointing to a silver Aston Martin DB9 gliding into the lot. My god. My dream car. Don't get me wrong, I love my Volco but that was taking the biscuit. I was about to go into school when Alice squeeled.

A beautiful dark haired woman was stepping out of the car, demmin short shorts and a starples red top. She had sapphire blue earings and high heeled stilettos. Then as I scasnned her face - she looked up from her sunglasses and smiled at someone. I turned round and it was Alice, possitvly bounching on the spot. She started to walk faster. "Alice " I asked "Who is that?" She glared at me. "Funny - I would of thought you'd reconize your ex-girlfriend Edward." and she walked with her.

Ex-girlfriend? Tanya? No, Tanya didn't come to this school anymore. Then I gasped and starred at Alice's friend. Bella?!!
