I woke to the sound of a large snore. I prised my eyes open and winced at the throbbing in my head. I felt like someone had hit me over the head repeatedly with a shovel. My throat felt like sandpaper and my limbs felt stiff. I looked around the room and saw Edward sitting on the ground leaning against the wall fast asleep. He kept snoring every couple of seconds. I giggled quietly to myself, the great Edward Cullen snored.
I tried to sit up and as I did so I could taste vomit coming up my throat. I leaped out of the bed and made a dash for the en suite, just in time.
"You, okay?" Edward asked as finished throwing up the entire contents of my stomach. I was about to reassure him that I was okay when I foggily remembered for some unknown reason I was mad at him. Slowly it came back to me. The look of pure disgust he had directed at me, his opinions of me.
"What do you care?" I asked trying to sound menacing which was pretty hard considering I had just had my head down the toilet.
"Well, you fell last night and hit your head, so Alice asked would I mind making sure you didn't vomit in you sleep and die." he replied his eyes darkening. "You were drunk and acting like a complete and utter moron!" he said folding his arms across his chest. I winced. Yeah I guess I had behaved like a complete and utter idiot.
He was still wearing the shirt and jeans he had been wearing last night but the shirt was crumpled. I looked down at my dress, it was all hiked up and there was a bit more cleavage on display then the dress normally showed. I yanked it down and then pulled up the neckline an inch or two my face flooding with color.
"Don't bother thanking me then," he sneered as he left the room. I sighed. It was probably just as well he left, my head was not the only thing that ached right now, so did my heart. The things he had said about me last night still hurt and he had proved once again this morning that he didn't even care about me in the slightest. He had only watched over me as a favor to Alice.
I leaned over the sink resting my hands on it and looked into the mirror. My hair which had been curly last night now was just frizzy and bushy. I was paler than usual with bit dark circles under my eyes, and to top of the classic look of a person suffering form the hangover from hell, I had a huge raised bump over my left eye. It was purple already and as the day wore on I was sure it would get worse.
I rinsed my face and brushed my teeth before attempting to tackle the bruise with some make-up. I applied it carefully so as not to hurt myself but it still did. When I was done I realized the make-up had no hop of covering this monster so I rubbed it off.
I pulled on my jeans, trainers and long sleeved t-shirt. Before knocking on Alice's door.
"Come in," she said chirpily, God she really was an extremely morning person. I opened the door and looked over at Alice. She was sitting up in her bed reading Vogue but Jasper was also in the room with her asleep, shirtless I might add, across her stomach.
"U-um, s-sorry. I didn't mean to disturb." I apologized staring at the ground.
"What's there to be sorry about?" Alice asked. She threw the magazine on the floor. "Jasper, Jazz, wake up!" She said shaking him roughly on the shoulder.
"W-what? Ugh..." He said groggily as he raised his head sleepily, looking up at Alice with a confused expression on his face.
"Bella and I need to talk about something, now get." She said shoving him playfully .on the arm. Getting up out of the bed with a yawn he slowly made his way out of the room giving me a nod while yawning. Thankfully he was wearing pajama pants, even if they were hanging a bit too low on his waist.
"Now, there's something I want to talk to you about." Alice said as the door closed with a bang. She tapped the bed signaling for me to sit down next to her. "What happened to you last night! Had you ever had a drink before?" I shook my head.
"No, can you imagine how Charlie would have reacted if he had come home from the station to find me swigging out of a can of beer!" Alice giggled politely before continuing on with her spainish inquisition style interrogation.
"Did something happen that would've made you want to drink?" She asked, her tone insinuating that she knew something. I looked up at her trying to keep my face blank. "Edward told me that he said some pretty mean things to you." She stated matter of factly.
"Oh." I answered after a minute. I hadn't thought he would've told his sister what he'd said about someone she was friends with. "Yeah, they were kind of mean, well I'd b-better g-go." I said struggling to get up of Alice's extremely comfy bed.
"Bella, sit down." She said gripping my arm, "You blacked out last night, you hit the floor pretty hard. Emmett said he thought he saw someone put out their foot to trip you." She looked at me suggestively. "Tanya," she stated while tapping her nails on the duvet beside her.
"What happened after I blacked out?" I asked wincing at what I was about to hear.
"Well, Edward almost had a mini panic attack!" I raised my eyebrows skeptically. "No, I swear he did. He was all like," she put up her fingers to do air quotes, " ' Quick, we have to put her in recovery position, she's drank a lot she could throw up and choke! ' I thought he was going to attempt CPR on you or something, seriously!"
"Edward was w-worried about me!" I state shocked. After what he'd said about me earlier in the night I hadn't thought he would've cared if I tripped out of a seven storey window rather than Tanya's foot.
"I volunteered to stay in you room last night to make sure you were okay but Edward insisted that he didn't mind doing it." Suddenly she looked very concerned, "I know it sounds like he was the only one worrying but the rest of us were freaking out too! We didn't want to tell Carlisle what happened in case he decided that it was his duty to inform Charlie so Emmett looked up stuff on the internet on what to do but it was all pretty basic." I smiled at her, it was nice to know that they cared enough about me to be worried.
"Thanks Al. I don't know why I was such an idiot last night. I'm sorry." I smiled apologetically.
"Don't worry about it Bella. The first time I drank I was when Jasper and I were fourteen and he'd just come to live with us and he'd brought a bottle of vodka with him. I got completely drunk and Carlisle had walked in, needless to say when Esme found out she grounded me for ages! Jazz got of the hook because she said he didn't know better yet, he'd been in a lot of rough foster homes. Needless to say he lorded the fact that he got off completely for weeks." She laughed brightly and I got up.
"Be ready to leave for school, in a half hour!" Alice chirped as I headed out of the door and back down to my room. Thank God its Friday.
A.N. I just want to say thank you to all the people who review every chapter, it means a lot. It's not difficult to write wether you like it or not, if you want it updated sooner, you find a mistake, to ask a question or suggest something. I really appreciate every piece of feedback I get, so please just drop me a line.
Also, I want to apoloogise for the lack of updates, my laptop charger broke and I had to get it fixed, then I got in trouble at home so my parents took my computer off of me. I know that this is very short but I wanted to get a chapter out asap, expect a longer update sometime this week.
