Gym consisted of me tripping and Mike talking about the party at his house this Friday. When the coach finally blew the whistle to tell us that P.E was over I speed walked to the locker room and quickly got changed, hoping to beat Mike and not have to see him before I went home. But, of course, when I came out of the locker room I had no such luck because Mike was waiting right outside the door for me. I tried to not make eye contact with him, but before I could even look away he shouted "Hey Bella, I am going to walk you to your car."

I smiled and said "Thank you," picking up my speed to make the walk as short as possible. I walked out of the gym expecting to find Emmett, but did not see him anywhere. Mike then decided to tell me "Oh yeah, I told Emmett I would walk you to his car since we had out last class together"

"Oh," I said while picking up my pace even more. "Well, then I guess we should go now," trying to give him the hint that I did not want to walk slowly.

He must have taken the hint because he started walking with me at my fast pace. When we finally got to the parking lot, I could see Emmett's Jeep along with Emmett and Rose. When I finally reached the Jeep I turned to Mike and said "Thank you,…bye," and hopped into Emmett's Jeep and shut the door behind me. A few seconds later, Emmett was in the Jeep with me and asked me about my day. I told him a happy little story that did not include anything about Mr. Hall, me falling and being harassed by Mike or my breakdown in the girl's bathroom.

When we reached the house, I went upstairs to unpack all my stuff. I could not believe how much room my new room had and I loved the window that led to the roof. I could not wait to go and sit out there on a nice night and just look up at the stars. Once I was done unpacking and hanging up my stuff I headed downstairs. I found Emmett watching TV and decided I should ask him what time Charlie gets home so I would know when to have dinner ready.

"Umm,…hey Emmett, What time does Char-dad…umm, does he get home?" being unsure if I should call him dad or if he was still Charlie to me.

Emmett said "Oh, dad will be home around 5:30," and he went back to watching some sports game.

So I turned around and went back in the kitchen and saw it was 5:00 and knew that I better start cooking dinner now if I was going to have I done by the time Charlie got home. I went the fridge and found only eggs, milk, and butter. So I tried the freezer and found nothing but ice cream there and then tried the cabinet and only found a loaf of bread. I knew there was no time to go shopping and I was not going to have dinner ready in time and at which point I fell to the ground and started to cry. Emmett must have heard me because he was at my side in a moment and I was scared of what he would do, too if I did not have his and Charlie's dinner ready in time.

"Bella, are you okay?…Bella, what's the matter?"

I felt rather stupid for crying because I knew this was something that always upset Phil even more, so I was sure it was just going to add to the anger Emmett was about to feel towards me. "I..I don't have anything to cook…for dinner…I'm s-" but he cut me off before I could say sorry.

"Bella, I am so sorry. I did not know you were so hungry, but don't worry. The pizza should be here in an hour,…but we could go get something now if your really hungry," he sounded so worried.

"Oh,…no I'm fine," and then suddenly I realized that Charlie would have his dinner and I could pull myself together off the floor. I started to get up when Emmett grabbed my right hand to help me up and I screamed out in pain.

Emmett had a look of pure pain in his eyes, like he felt sorry for hurting me. I had never seen a guy or anyone for that matter feel bad for hurting me much less feel bad when they didn't even mean to.

"I am so sorry Bella. What did I do?…I don't know my own strength sometimes. Let me see your wrists…" he held out his hand patiently waiting for me to give him my right wrist and, of course, I did as he said.

"Bella, I think it is broken…I am so sorry! I did not mean to break it. I did not even know I grabbed your wrist that hard…I am so sorry….Oh man, Dad is going to be so mad."

Then I was struck with fear again. He was right. Charlie was going to be mad I bet. Phil would have been mad. "We don't have to tell him," I said hopefully. But my hope was gone when he said,

"oh yes we do Bella," but I was suddenly confused by his next words "I will call Charlie now and tell him what happened and then I will take you to the emergency room to have it checked out."

What? he wanted my wrist checked out? I was very confused. But I also needed to come up with a reason why my wrist was broken because I knew the X-Rays would show that my wrist was not broken today. So I told Emmett the first thing that came to mind "Umm... Emmett you did not do this to my wrist. I think I did this back home when I was ridding my bike and fell of last week."

"What? Your mom could not tell it was broken?….It looks like a pretty nasty break, Bella. How could you have not gotten a cast?"

"Oh, it doesn't hurt that much really. There is no need to go to the hospital."

"No Bella, we are going and now. Charlie would kill me if he found out I did not take you."

With this, I shut-up and just nodded, not wanting to upset him and kind of glad that I would not have to worry about having to hide my broken wrist any longer.

Once we got to the hospital, Emmett went up to the front desk and asked for a Dr. Cullen. The nurse then paged "Dr. Cullen….Dr. Cullen you're needed in the Emergency room…Dr. Cullen."

Then Emmett turned around to me and said "Don't worry. We will be out of here really fast. This is Edward's and Alice's dad so we don't have to wait in line."

"Oh… okay."

Once Dr. Cullen showed up, he took X-Rays of my wrist and since my story was that I fell off my bike, he decided that I needed to have full body X-Ray to make sure I did not hurt anything else. About twenty minutes later, Dr. Cullen came back and had a look of shock and awe on his face. Finally he spoke and said "Bella, you must have a very high pain tolerance…Higher then anyone I have ever seen…..Bella, your wrist is broken in about ten places and you have a hairline fracture on one of your ribs on your left side. But I guess you got your high pain tolerance from all the other bones you have broken in the past. I could see at least 10 of them on the X-rays we just took."

Emmett had a pure look of shock on his face and finally he spoke "So what does she need to do for this?"

"Well Bella is going to need a cast on her right arm and she needs to wear a special back brace as much as possible." Then he turned to me and said "What color cast would you like?"

"Do you have black?"

"Yep, a nurse will be right in to do that for you and I will go get you a back brace."

After I got my cast and back brace, me and Emmett headed home and as we pulled into the drive way I saw that there was a police curser and I figured that must be Charlie. Emmett helped me out his Jeep since the back brace was not the easiest thing to move in. I took a deep breath as we walked into the house bracing myself for the yelling I was sure was going to come for costing Charlie so much money, but to my surprise, I was greeted by a very worried, but excited face.

"Oh Bella, are you okay? Do you need some aspirin?"

Why he was worried about me? I did not understand this. "No, I am fine but thank you. I am sorry to have caused such a fus-"

But he, just like Emmett, always seemed to do interrupt me "Bella, don't apologize for this. But I still can not believe your mother did not take you in to get it checked out."

After eating dinner at the table with Charlie and Emmett I headed off to bed being completely wiped from my day. I walked into my room, went over to my desk, and grabbed my I-Pod off of it and then walked over to my closet and took a hand full of clothes and piled them on top of me. When I was comfortable, I took out my flashlight and dairy and started to write about my day. Before I knew it, I was asleep and my watch was beeping again which woke me up. It was four o'clock and I knew that I needed to get up to cook breakfast for Charlie and Emmett. I had already decided the night before that I would make them French toast as that was the only thing that I could make using, Milk, eggs, bread and ice cream (but I was not going to use the ice cream). I had just finished making the first batch when Charlie and Emmett walked downstairs sniffing the air.

Emmett walked into the kitchen asking "What is that smell, dad?"

I answered back sweetly "French toast!"

"WHAT?…no way,….you made us breakfast?…Sweet!"

Then Charlie looked at me and said "Bella, how early did you get up to make this and you know you did not have to make us breakfast."

What? He did not expect me to cook for him? Charlie was definitely not the typical dad. He first didn't care that I went to the hospital. He was actually happy that I did, second he did not care that last night he had to have pizza instead of a home cooked meal, and lastly he did not expect me to cook but that was what I was suppose to do. That was all I was good for. I was now completely confused, but played tried to play it off and just smiled. "I didn't mind."

Emmett took me to school again today and it played out much the same as the day before, except today was the day of the party. I was starting to get anxious about the party not sure of what to expect, but knew I would be fine with Emmett there.

After school Alice took me home since Emmett had Football practice as did Jasper and Edward. She was also was going to stay with me at Charlie's house until the game and then we would go together. Once we got to the house, she started talking about what she was wearing to the game and party tonight. She told me she was planning on wearing the school colors for the game which where green, orange, black and white. She said she was going to wear an orange mini skirt with black leggings, layer a white and green tank top and then put her hair up in a high pony tail with all four colors of ribbions. Once she finished going on about her outfit she asked me what I was planning to wear and I told her "Ta-da" pointing to myself and she frowned, but then a huge grin spread across her face. A smile that scared me, but before I could object to what ever it was she was thinking, she ran up to my room and so I followed. By the time I reached my room, Alice was going though all my clothes and taking everything that was orange, green, white or black and putting it to the side. Finally, once finished trashing my room looking for clothes, went to the pile she had set aside and then made an outfit out of some of them and then turned to me and handed me the clothes and said "Go try it on."

I put on Alice outfit with was a black mini skirt (the only skirt that I owned and it was only because James had made me get it and wear it one night.) a solid green top and an orange spaghetti strap shirt. I put it on and had to admit I looked cute. I walked out and Alice started to gush about how good it looked. She then did both of our make-up and by the time she was done, it was time to go to the game.

The game was uneventful and we won 56 to 3, but I did not pay attention to the game because I was too nervous about the party. I had so many questions going though my head like 'Would there be dancing and if there was where would I hide cause I had no clue how to dance?' Then another question would pop in my head like 'Who would I talk to because Emmett would want to hang out with Rose and Alice, who I could tell liked Jasper so she would be with him and I did not really ever talk to Edward and I got the feeling he did not like me to much so that only left Mike. But Mike would be the very person I was trying to avoid.

After the game, I followed Alice to the car and we headed towards the restaurant where we were going to meet up with the guys and Rose. We pulled up to a Denny's and as we were about to walk in the door, the guys and Rose came up behind us. I could not believe how fast they had gotten here, but decided not to ask the question. We walked in and everyone ordered food, but I did not have any money and did not want Emmett to pay for me so I just got water and told everyone I was not hungry. The guys went on about the game and how they beat the other team so badly, but I did not really pay attention because my anxiety over the party just kept getting higher and higher.

I think I will write another chapter tonight so look back later but right now I have to go trim trees and junk for stupid Ike who doesn't even look like he is going to hit near me anymore more…but I will try to finish quickly so I can get back to writing I can not wait to write about the party…. Oh and as always thanks for reading and tell me what you do and don't like.
