Chapter 7: Disappointment and Pity
Special guest stars: Tanya Denali and Jacob Black
Alice POV
I was quite disappointed at Edward, he was Bella's best friend, did he really think he could throw just go meet some girl's parents instead of going to Bella's surprise birthday party.
I sat on the bed with Bella, we'd just had a small cookie cake that I had brought to her house along with a small gift; a pair of earrings. It's hard to get Bella a gift, she hates people spending money on her, but with a little persuasion she accepted the earrings, but wait till she sees what I got her for her party…
"So" I said while taking a bite of my cake, "how was your birthday today"
"It was fine" she replied "my parents took me to this nice Italian restaurant for lunch"
I nodded, and felt my phone buzzing. I smiled a little and picked up.
"Everything's ready…over and out" I heard Emmett say, I tried to compose my face.
"W-what?" I said in a sad voice
"Come in about 5 minutes" he told me
"y-yes, I'll be there" I cried and hung up
"What's wrong Alice?" Bella asked softly
"My mom got really sick, and I need to go home, but I took the bus, and the next bus comes in an hour" I replied
"It's alright, I'll drive you back" she said gently while getting up and grabbing her keys. Yes! She was falling into my trap…
"No! It's you birthday, I don't want to ruin it" I said quickly, oh man! Know I was acting like Bella herself; selfless…
"It's fine Alice" she said aggravated, while pulling me up
We drove silently to my house, I told everyone to park behind the neighborhood.
"Bye Alice" Bella said while taking her key out of the ignition
"No! Come inside" I pleaded, I hope she came with me
"No, I really shouldn't" she said while shaking her head
"No, it's fine, I want my friend to be there with me" I said while I pouted…she would always give in to my pouts.
"Okay" she mumbled as she walked behind me. I quickly texted Emmett and told him we were on our way inside.
We stepped in the door quietly. There they were everyone screamed out.
"SURPRISE!"
I laughed looking at Bella's frightened face.

I couldn't believe at what they did, and for me. I had such caring friends, unlike some people...people who don't show up for their best friend's birthdays parties, the ones who ignore their friends, ones who just take advantage of people, people like…like...like Edward…
He didn't show up…
EPOV
I was really nervous about meeting Tanya's parents; I prayed that they would like me.
"Edward! Its fine, my parents will absolutely love you!" Tanya said while dusting off my shirt
The door opened to reveal a tall man with dark brown hair and small specks of gray, and a beer bottle in one hand.
"Hello! You must be Edward, come in! Come in!" he said is a loud voice, while pulling me in
"My daughter speaks very highly of you" he says while walking through the hallway
…let the night begin…
"The dinner is great Mrs. Denali" I say politely
"Thank you! I'm glad someone finally appreciates my work" she replied while eyeing her husband
Mr. Denali just grunted and poured himself another glass of whiskey.
"George, we don't want to give the wrong impression in front of the guest" Mrs. Denali said sweetly trying to suppress her anger.
I had observed their relationship this whole evening. They didn't have a very good marriage, they were always fighting about something, always disagreeing. I also saw Tanya think nothing of it, in fact she thought her parents behavior was hilarious.
By the end of the evening I was sickened by how much hate Mr. and Mrs. Denali had for each other. Did they ever love each other?
I walked out of Tanya's parent's house holding her hand.
She was still laughing "Weren't they just great!" she said cheerfully
I looked down at her my eyes full of pity and half smiled "Yeah" I lied.

I sat down on my bed after I put my presents away and started to read Wuthering Heights.
I sighed unable to concentrate on the writing, my mind kept wandering. I was to go to my dad's work party tomorrow, a small holiday party.
Suddenly my phone started to buzz as I looked at the caller ID.
Edward flashed on the screen, blinking. I sat there debating whether or not to answer, but by the time I made my decision it was already on voicemail.
I quickly went to menu and voicemail and started to listen…
"Hey Bella! How's the birthday girl? Sorry I couldn't make it tonight, I had dinner with Tanya's parents. It was great. Anyway, I'll talk to you later, bye!"
I didn't know If I should have been furious or happy.
At least he remembered my birthday. But couldn't he reschedule, usually I wouldn't want a big party with everyone coming, but this was getting out of hand!

"Ah…I feel bad for Bella" Rosalie said while sighing
"Yeah, Edward was being a real jerk" Alice huffed which pulling on her purse
"Anyway, moving on…" Jasper said

The next day…
I wore a nice grey sweater dress and a red scarf around by neck along with some red leggings.
The party was very beautiful. It was at a banquet hall with a 15 foot Christmas tree in the middle. The room was filled with holiday colors and a warm cinnamon scent.
I loved the holiday time, common comfort foods such as butter, sugar, and vanilla and the busyness you generally see during the holiday season. The sugar cookies, cakes, eggnog, and the aroma of Christmas, and the smell of vanilla candles giving its own Christmas fragrance.
I sat down on a small comfy chair and took out my tattered version of Wuthering Heights and started reading.
"Hello" a low husky voice said from behind me.
I turned my head slightly looking to see a handsome young man. He had a bright smile with jet black hair and tan skin.
"Hi" I mumbled getting back to the reading, he sat down beside me showing that he was not giving up to get my attention.
"May I help you with something?" I asked politely
"Yes, I need help with finding out what you name is" he replied
I smiled "Bella Swan" I said
"Jacob Black" he mumbled back
A/N: There he is! I love Jacob! But you might not like him in this story…sorry
Review!
xoxo
