Alice POV

I felt bad for going though with the party when I knew it would upset Bella but I had to do it. I knew Bella remembered Phil and I knew that Emmett and Edward were keeping from Rose, Jasper and I that Bella had been raped by Phil that night and that Phil had probably done this before. Yet I did not let anyone else know that I knew this. Because in order for the plan I had worked out over the past two weeks of Bella being in the hospital, no one could know I knew. My plan was to force Bella over the edge…not in a suicide over the edge but over the edge she has to talk about it.

To do this. I studied Bella and added what I already knew to see what seemed to upset her and there where a lot of things if you paid close enough attention. The first and most oblivious was touching, then came guys, and then came heights (I mean, you could see she was even someone who was scared of hopping out of Emmett Jeep, though she would never admit it.) The list could go on forever but I decided I only needed to use her fear of guys and people touching her. The best way to have people touch her was to have party and, of course, tons of guys would be there. Once Bella seemed to be at her breaking point I would send her upstairs to lay down. But I would not send her just anywhere to have her mental break down. No, I would send her to Edwards's room. Because I knew Bella trusted Edward and Edward also seemed to have a better understanding about what was going on with Bella then anyone else, including myself and it also didn't hurt that I knew Edward liked Bella.

But when the time for the party came, everything just seemed to be working out perfectly. First was the fact that Edward planned to spend the entire night in is his room so he would be there when I send Bella there and second was the fact that Bella was now spending the night at my house because Charlie was called into work at the station and he did not want to leave Bella alone he first night back from the hospital.

As I was finishing going over the plan in my head and going though all the different scenarios of what could happen and what I would do about it, I saw the front door open and Edward fly past me and up to his room. I took that as my cue that Bella must be here. I quickly spotted her and crossed the room to her and could already see that she was uncomfortable and I felt bad but knew that this was for her own good. I grabbed Bella in a hug and then dragged her to the room where everyone was dancing. It was very hot and sweaty in this room since I had blocked the vents downstairs with cardboard (though no one could tell since I did it from the inside). I started to dance and Bella didn't join in and after a while I finally asked why she wasn't.

"BELLA WHY AREN'T YOU DANCING!" I shouted over the music.

"I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DANCE!" she shouted back at me.

"WHAT? IT IS EASY HERE I WILL SHOW YOU!" and so I got behind Bella and grabbed my hips and started to sway to the beat of the music.

"SEE! NOW YOU GOT IT!" even though I felt horrible about all this because I could feel how tense Bella was, I kept going.

Now it was time for the next step of my plan, to get a guy to dance with Bella which wasn't going to be hard because Bella really could dance even though she had no clue. I made eye contact with another guy and motioned with my eyes for him to come over. He did as he was told and I replaced my hands with his on Bella waist then quickly disappeared into the crowd, but not too far that I could not see Bella.

Soon enough Bella started her fake sneezing and eventually the guy let go and Bella bee-lined away from him. She quickly then scanned the room and spotted me and crossed towards me with new found purpose it seemed. Once she reached me I greeted her.

"Hey Bella…that was some hot dance you had over there…Where did that guy go? He looked pretty hot?"

"Oh, I don't know, we stopped dancing," she said flatly.

"Why?" I asked, trying to sound confused.

"Because… my pain medication is starting to wear off… and I am getting kind of tired so I figured I best not push it, you know, being my first day out of the hospital and all," she said and I knew it was a complete lie but I didn't let on to that fact. In fact, she was making my plan easier because now I had a reason to send her to Edward's room and it took a whole lot less time then I imaged it would.

"Oh, do you want me to get Emmett or some aspirin…or what do you need Bella?" though I was not completely sure if she was in some kind of pain so I asked her.

"Oh, no I don't need anything just can you tell me a room I could go into to, you know, lay down in?" she said while I though 'wow can she make this any easier on me.'

"Oh, of course…Go up the stairs and make a left, it is the second door on the right." And with that the finally stage of my plan was put into action.

"Thanks," was her simple response as she headed up the stairs.

I hope you guys like it…though I am so tired right now I am not really sure how good it actually is…but I wrote this because I promised I would have it up by Sunday and I made it with 52 minutes to spare….yea…and now I will get to crash after my very busy past 5 days in which I had done 6 shows and got sick today and I feel like I am dead…but hopefully this chapter does not show how truly tired I am…as always Review in any form you like…Flames are accepted…lol…ok well thanks for reading will update as soon as I can…
