Chapter 2

BPOV

As we stood in the carport trying to decide who was driving, Emmett finally offered to since he had a car that would seat all six of us. Rosalie of course jumped in the front seat to sit next to Emmett and it appeared that Emmett liked Rosalie there as well. I could've sworn that I seen a spark between them. In the next row was where Alice and I sat. She knew I was having a hard time coming out and decided to sit with me to calm me down. Edward and Jasper sat in the 3rd row squished. Emmett's Jeep did seat us all, but not comfortably.

We pulled up to club La Push and Alice walked straight to the front of the VIP line. She gave her name and told the bouncer at the door that we are all on the guest list. He motioned for us all to enter. Once we got inside, the music was loud, but some how I seemed to relax a little. The girls walked over to a table and the guys followed behind us.

"What would you all like to drink?" Jasper asked. We gave him our drink order which was pretty much the same each time, Apple Martini's but we also ordered a round of watermelon shots as well. The guys walked over to the bar.

"Bella, what did Edward really do," Rosalie asked.

"Nothing really," I stated. I explained that when I was doing laundry that my underwear kept falling on the floor and he noticed every time and laughed. I was just embarrassed is what I told them. They looked at me and we all laughed as well.

I looked over towards the guys at the bar and Edward already had the women swooning over him. He was talking to a little blonde. I felt myself get mad but couldn't figure out why. He caught me looking, but I turned away suddenly not to make eye contact. I looked down at the table and glanced up thru my eyelashes and noticed he was staring at me now. I could feel his piercing green eyes on me. All of sudden my cheeks were on fire.

"Bella, why are you so flustered," Rosalie asked.

I snapped my head up and looked at her quickly. "I don't know, I think it's just hot in here."

Just then the guys returned back to the table. Jasper sat next to Alice and Emmett sat next to Rosalie. That just left the seat next to me open for Edward to sit. He sat my Apple Martini down in front of me and smiled. I couldn't help but smile back.

"Thank you," I said.

"You're welcome," he replied. "Oh, sorry about earlier, I probably should have told you who I was."

"Huh," was all I could say.

"I knew who you were," he explained. "Come on, I'm Alice's brother, all she does is talk about you and Rosalie." Then he leaned in to whisper in my ear, "She talks about you the most though." As he exhaled, I could feel the warmth of his breathe on my neck and I shivered. I got goose bumps all over. His breathe tickled me. "Plus, she does have pictures of the three of you." Then he leaned back and looked into my eyes.

"Bella, Edward," Alice was yelling our names. We both snapped our heads up at the same time and yelled "What?" at the same time.

"Come on let's do the shot," she said. We all lifted our shot glasses up, "One, Two, Three…" then we all drank the shots.

I glanced at Edward from the corner of my eye hoping that no one noticed, but he was also looking at me as well. I got all flustered.

Everyone started talking together and then Rosalie asked Emmett to dance. I finished my drink and Edward had too.

"Would you like another one," he asked. I nodded yes to him. Jasper seen where he was going and jumped up to go with him.

"So Bella, aren't you glad you came?"

"Yeah, Alice, it's not so bad."

"So what is with you and Edward?"

Shock came to my face, "nothing."

"Um hmm," she said. "Then why are you both trying to hide the fact that you keep looking at each other.

I tilted my head back and laughed. "Alice that's ridiculous," I said. However, I knew that it was true.

Someone tapped me on the shoulder and I turned to see who it was. It was a tall skinny guy with blonde hair. "Would you like to dance?" As he asked me this I looked down at my ring finger, and realized I didn't have my ring on. My ring kept guys from approaching me most of the time, but without it now, I had no protection.

"No, but thank you," I replied.

"But why not?" he asked persistently.

"I don't feel like dancing," I answered. I could feel someone staring at me and as I looked up, my eyes locked on as to who it was. Those were Edward's emerald green eyes I felt and stared into from across the club. I guess the guy kept trying to talk to me, but Edward's eyes had me locked in place. Then the blonde that was talking to Edward earlier tapped him on the shoulder and he turned away. No, I thought, I want to stare at him some more.

Emmett and Rosalie were back from dancing at this point. I smiled at them, they looked like they would make a great couple. Emmett got up to go and get him and Rose a drink. Just then Jasper returned, but Edward was not with him. He was still at the bar talking to the blonde.

Jasper set my drink down with another shot and before anyone said cheers, I shot the little watermelon flavored drink down. Then I grabbed Alice's and shot hers down too. She didn't complain.

"Better, Bella?" was all she asked. I just smiled.

I wasn't much of a drinker so I was feeling the effects of the alcohol already. The song changed and suddenly Alice and Rosalie pulled me up and out onto the dance floor. At first, I didn't want to dance but as each minute passed the alcohol took over. I let myself feel the music and before I knew it, we were all giggling. I did glance over to the bar to where Edward and the blonde had been talking but they were no longer there. I felt disappointed.

The next song came on and Rosalie and I just about gave everyone a show of how sexy we were. Not even half way through the song, Jasper and Emmett were dancing with us. Slowly each one coupled up so I decided to turn and go back to the table. As I turned around Edward was right behind me. He stopped me from leaving and started dancing with me. How long was he behind me, I wondered.

We danced to a few more songs. Each song brought us closer and closer to each other. Finally, he put his hands on my waist. I bit down on my bottom lip and looked up at him. My body felt on fire where his hand rested. I could feel the heat rising into my cheeks. I smiled up at him and our eyes locked on to one another. It was intense. Now no one could interrupt whatever was happening between us as we stared into each others eyes. It was as if he was trying to read my soul. Then the music stopped and they began to play Rap music. I was not a fan at all, and apparently neither was Edward. We walked over to the table, Edward kept his hand on the small of my back the entire time.

I was hot and I don't mean from the dancing either. I grabbed my drink and downed it. Alice and Rosalie just about fell over when I did that too.

"Bella, be careful. You know what alcohol does to you," she reminded me.

I nodded my head to her. As I did that, I realized I needed air. It was way to hot in the club.

"I need air," I shouted to Alice. She nodded at me and stood up, walked over to me and grabbed my hand.

"Where are you two going," Jasper asked.

"Bella needs some fresh air."

"Yeah, I was wondering how long before it would hit her," Jasper replied. Then Jasper looked at Edward and said, "she's a light weight, she doesn't drink much."

Edward shook his head as to acknowledge what Jasper had told him. "Let me take her Alice."

I smiled at Alice and nodded my head. "You go dance with Jasper some more, I'll be fine."

Edward then pulled me over to him and wrapped his arm around my waist. I felt electricity run thru my body. He stopped at the bar before heading outside. I thought, great, get Bella drunk, but he got me water instead.

As Edward handed me the bottled water, I thanked him. He pulled me away from all the people so that I could get some air. We leaned on a round table across from one another but didn't say anything to each other. I drank half the bottle of water and began to feel better.

"Thank you," I told him.

"For what," he asked.

"You didn't have to come out here with me. But I do feel a lot better now," as I smiled at him.

"Don't mention it."

I wanted to apologize for earlier but I wasn't sure how. "Edward, I'm really sorry about earlier. It's just that," I paused for a moment, "I'm sort of shy. And then you seen my underwear, I was more embarrassed than anything."

His eyes locked on to mine again and the sides of his mouth turned upwards revealing the most beautiful crooked smile I have ever seen. I was stuck there in the moment, staring into his deep green eyes and hadn't noticed that he walked around the table and was suddenly in front of me. I could only see his eyes, his soul. Then my whole body exploded and I heard fireworks going off all around me and before I knew what was happening, Edward's arms were around my waist and his lips were on mine. My arms reached up and wrapped around his neck as our lips moved together in perfect harmony. I hadn't even realized that my back was now up against the wall and my fingers were intertwined into his hair.

I could taste him and oh was he so sweet. His lips felt so good on mine. His tongue glided against my bottom lip asking for permission, so I parted my lips slightly allowing him access. His tongue met mine in the most passionate way ever. It was a good thing Edward was holding me up because I had no feeling in my legs and I knew it wasn't from the alcohol. We both pulled away grasping for air for a few seconds and then found each others lips again.

Then I heard her, "Bella? Edward?" It was Alice.

We jumped apart from each other suddenly and I almost fell to the floor but Edward reached out and caught me. Alice pretended to be mad, but I could see the glimmer in her eyes. I knew she secretly wanted Rosalie and I to fall for her brothers so that we would truly be bonded together.

"What are you two doing," she asked.

"I couldn't breathe, so Edward was giving me mouth to mouth."

Edward just about died laughing with my statement. I nudged him in the gut and he tried to keep a straight face.

"What do you take me for Ms. Swan?"

Then all three of us started laughing together. I was feeling much better now so we decided to go into the club.

"Edward, will you excuse Alice and myself," I asked smiling like a Cheshire cat. "I need to go to the ladies room."

Edward smiled at me with that gorgeous crooked smile and shook his head.

Once we were in the restroom, I began to apologize to Alice. "I'm so sorry Alice. I didn't mean for that to happen. Actually, I didn't even know what was happening at first when he kissed me. One minute I'm looking into his eyes and the next minute, bam fireworks were going off."

"Fireworks?"

"Yeah you didn't hear them?"

"Bella, honey, only you and maybe Edward heard them."

I looked at her confused. "What do you mean?"

"Bella, I know you're not ready for this and don't really want to hear this, but I think there is some connection between you and my brother. I can't explain it really, but I'm not the only one who has seen it."

"You're right, I don't want to hear this. I can't Alice, I'm not ready."

"Aren't you?" as she gave me this questioning look. "Bella, things like this don't come along that often and you'd be a fool not to find out what it is."

"Alice, I'm sorry, but I can't."

"Listen to me Ms. Isabella Marie Swan, it's been well over a year and half and you really really really need to move on. I'm not saying to forget him Bella, just that it's ok to finally move on. He would want you to be happy. My brother is a really good guy. Just get to know him and see where things go."

I began to cry. I was so confused. I had loved my Jacob for nearly five years now and he's been gone for a year and a half now and never coming back. Why couldn't I let go. "No Alice, I am not ready," I ran out of the restroom and out of the club. I was still pretty buzzed from the alcohol but the water had helped some.

While I was running out the door, Edward watched me leave and watched as Alice walked back to the table.

"Rose, she needs us right now."

Rosalie stood up and grabbed our stuff. The guys sat there confused.

"Let me go get her," Edward said.

"I don't know Edward, you don't really know what's going on," Rosalie said protective of Bella.

"Rose, I think it might be a good idea for him to go," Alice interjected.

"Alice, no," Rose demanded.

Edward at this point got up and walked outside to look for me.

"Rose, there's something between them two and we have to get her to face it. It's way over due for her to move on now. We can't keep allowing her to wallow."

Rosalie sighed. "Yeah, maybe your right."

"Would someone like to tell me what the heck is going on?" Emmett questioned.

"Not now Em, but in due time. Bella has to be the one that tells you not us," Jasper informed him.

Now I was curious as to what was going on with Bella. Everyone except Emmett and I seemed to be in the know. I didn't like that one bit.

As I walked out the club in search of Bella, I told myself that I would do whatever it takes to find out what was going on and to fix it.
