So because I love you guys so much (and didn't feel like doing anything else today) I decided to write the next chapter. Am I spoiling you guys too much? Let me know ;-) Hope you guys enjoy the chapter.

I don't own Twilight but I like using the characters.

BPOV

Alice was such a little sneak, when Edward said that he was one of the drivers she grabbed my hand and pulled me to his car. She gave me a wink as she all but pushed me into the backseat. I loved watching the two of them fight; it made me wish I would have had siblings growing up. I could barely take my eyes off of Edward when I first saw him. He looked great in his black shirt, it made his pale skin look beautiful. His hair was wild as usually and I wanted so badly to run my fingers through it.

I ended up sitting next to Edward at the diner which was fine by me. Every time our arms would touch I felt electricity. I didn't say much, I was having too much fun sitting back and watching my friends. I had always been a loner; it was common for me to eat lunch by myself reading a book. Other then the one boyfriend I had, for a few weeks, I never had much contact with other people. It was crazy how life had changed so much is such a short time. I had only met these people three days ago but it felt like I had been friends with them forever. Alice had a great time telling the boys all about our movie night and I loved hearing Edward laugh next to me. All too fast dinner was done and we were back in Edward's car on the way to the club. I still didn't understand how Alice and Rose had convinced me to go out with them. Something about "roommate bonding" and "don't be a party pooper".

Alice was so excited when Twilight, the club she picked, came into sight that she started to bounce up and down in her seat. "I'm so excited," her voice was so high it almost hurt my ears then she jumped out of the car.

I was just about to open my door when it opened. Edward was standing there with the open door in his hand, "Thank you," I looked down at my feet.

He shut the door behind me, "You're welcome." He started to walk beside me, "So are you just as excited as my sister is?" His voice was amazing but his question was hilarious.

I started to laugh hard at the thought of me being so excited about dancing. "Yeah right," I looked over at Edward. "Dancing and I are not friends. I try to stay far away from dancing," it was true I had never been to a school dance in the past. The only time I was forced to dance was during gym class. My own personal hell.

"Oh com on Bella," Alice turned around and grabbed my hand. "We are going to have a great time tonight." It was easy to believe her when she sounded so excited.

"We are going to get our dance on," Rose made her way to us shaking her hips as she walked.

The line to the club looked pretty long but Rose walked right to the front without any hesitation. The boys followed behind us, something told me they weren't too excited for tonight. The bouncer was kind of creepy and I didn't like the way his eyes looked as the three of us, but he let us all in. There were so many people in the club and I was surprised when we found an empty table. Emmett asked if any of us wanted something to drink and we all agreed on water. Edward went with Emmett and I was a little sad to see him go.

"Come on ladies," Rose got up from the table, "let's go shake our grove things." Alice hopped off the chair and both of them grabbed my hand and pulled me to the dance floor.

"Guys," I tried to pull back, "I'm really not a good dancer."

"We will teach you how to," Alice reassured me.

The girls found "the perfect" spot on the dance floor then looked at me. "Okay Bella," Alice got in front of me and put her hands on her hips. "You can hear the music right," I nodded my head, "now I want you to move your hips in time." I tried to do what she told me but I knew I was doing a horrible job. "Stop," she placed her hands on my hips, "it is more like this," she started to move my hips side to side.

Rose stood behind me and placed her hands on my shoulders. "Remember to move your upper body too," she started to sway my shoulders in time with my hips. I felt like a fool and I'm sure like I looked like one too. "You are doing much better Bella," Rose said.

"But you are still a horrible dancer," Alice joked.

"You just need the right teacher," some guy walked up to us. He had short brown hair and I could tell that he was drunk. "Plus I'm sure I could show you a better time," he tried to get closer to us but Rose had something to say about that.

"Back off buddy we don't need to dance with you to have a good time. We are doing just fine by ourselves," she placed her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes at him.

The guy backed away and Rose started to laugh. "He gave me a good idea," Alice said with an evil smile.

"Alice what are you going to do," I was scared of the way she was looking at me.

She completely ignored me and ran to the boys that were only feet from us. I couldn't hear what she was saying to them over the music. Alice made her way back to us with the boys behind her.

"Edward dance with Bella," I could have killed her in that moment. My face was burning hot and I wanted to run away. Trying to dance with Rose and Alice was one thing but dancing with Edward was completely different. "She really is a bad dancer," she told him and I glared at her. "Bella," her eyes landed on me and she had a smug smile on her face, "Edward is a great dancer and I'm sure he will be able to help you." She gave me a quick wink and turned to dance with the others.

"We don't have to do this if you don't want to," I felt bad that he was forced to dance with his little sister's roommate. I looked up into his eyes; they were so beautiful even in a dark club.

"I don't mind at all," his mouth turned up into a crocked smile. That smile took my breath away each time. "Dancing is all about listening to the music," he put his hand on my hips and brought my body closer to him. His hands felt wonderful on me and I never wanted him to remove them. "You've got to feel the rhythm," his voice sent shivers down my body, "move your body with the song." His hands pushed my hips with the beat and I found myself getting lost in the feeling of his hands. I closed my eyes and allowed myself to move to the song. Having Edward touch me felt great but I wanted to move closer.

I had no idea how long we danced but I never wanted it to end. After a while though, I felt like I was going to fall over. It was getting way too hot on the dance floor and I needed some water. I pulled slightly away from Edward and he looked down at me.

"I really need some water sorry," I looked up into his eyes and gave him a small smile.

"No problem," he motioned for me to go first then he followed behind me.

We both sat down at the table and I took a big drink of the water in front of me. "Thanks for dancing with me," I took another drink of water and looked down at the table.

"It is my pleasure," I looked up at him and his eyes told me he was telling the truth. It looked like he wanted to say more but just then Alice jumped onto the seat next to me.

"Bella, what are you doing here?" I motioned to the water in front of me, "Come out and dance with us," she whined and pulled me to my feet. Emmett and Jasper sat down next to Edward and Rose stood by us. "You guys stay here or go find something else to do," she looked over at the boys. "I think we've got it from here," she pulled me to the dance floor before the guys had any time to say something.

"Edward and you looked pretty hot together," Rose said once were out of hearing rang.

I started to blush, "I have no idea what you are talking about Rose. He was just teaching me how to dance."

Alice stopped and looked at me. "Yeah right Bella, Edward was into it just as much as you were."

She gave me a knowing smile then started to dance. I was having a good time dancing with my roommates. It was easy to be myself around them and not worry about what other people thought. I closed my eyes and tried to listen to them music like I had with Edward. It wasn't the same; I missed the feel of his hands on me. The way I could feel his breath on my face, the smell of his body. Dancing with Edward was beyond amazing.

After a few songs I had to go to the bathroom, I decided not to bother my roommates since they were so into the music. I got a few feet away from the girls when I felt someone's hand grab my wrist.

"Hey there beautiful," he spun me around. "I was hopping that I would see you again." Mike, the boy from the mall, was standing in front of me. I tired to pull my arm away from him but he held on tighter. "You look even better now then you did in the store," his speech was slurred so he must have been drinking.

"Mike," his eyes lit up when I remembered his name. "It is nice to see you again but can you let go of my wrist," he didn't let go if anything he tightened his grip.

"Don't be like that sweetie," he pulled me closer to his body. "I can show you a good time," he leaned closer and tried to kiss me. I turned my head to the side so his lips landed on my cheek. "Now Bella that is no way to be," his voice was low and scary.

I had never been scared of a guy the way I was scared of Mike. Even with so many people around none of them seemed to pay attention to what was going on. Mike started to push me away from the dance floor. I kept thinking that I should scream but nothing would come out when I opened my mouth. I felt my back against the wall and Mikes hands on my hips. His mouth was on my neck and his lips made my skin crawl.

"Your skin feels so good baby," I had to get away from him but I didn't know how to. His hands start to move up my sides while he continued to kiss my neck.

"Bella," I looked up to see Edward's eyes.

All of a sudden Mike was being pulled off of me. Edward punched him in the face and Mike fell to the ground. The tears in my eyes made it hard to see everything that was going on but I did see Edward push Mike up to the wall a few feet away from me. He was saying something in his ear and from the look on Mike's face it was pretty bad.

"Edward," I was finally able to find my voice. I place my hand on Edward's back, "let's go home." His face looked back at me and the look in his eyes was deadly. As soon as his eyes met mine they soften.

He pushed Mike away from us one more time and wrapped his arm around me. "Okay," he pushed his way through the crowed of people to the door. He made sure that nobody got too close to me and for that I was grateful.

It felt great being out side, the club was too hot but outside was just right. Edward got us to his car fast, he opened the door for me and helped me get in. He started the car as soon as he got in then pulled out his cell phone. I didn't hear much of his conversation, too lost in my own thoughts. I could still feel Mike's lips and breathe on my neck, his hands on my hips. Tears were still falling down my face as Edward drove back to my apartment. The car stopped and I looked around to see that we were already at my place.

"Don't leave me," I whispered as I looked down at my hands. I didn't want to be alone, not after what just happened.

"I wasn't planning on it," he got out of the car and ran to my door. "I will stay with you as long as you need," he pulled me into his body. Being held by Edward was so different then being touched my Mike. I felt protected and safe in his arms, like nothing in the world could hurt me.

"Thanks Edward," I knew it wasn't enough but it was all I could say at the time.

He helped me into the apartment and up the stairs to my apartment.

"Shit," I mumbled as we reached the door.

"What," Edward put his arms on my shoulders then looked into my eyes. "What is wrong? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"I'm fine Edward," I gave his arm a pat. Something in his eyes told me he didn't believe me, "I am really fine Edward. The reason I freaked out is because I don't have a key. Alice was the only one that brought one with her," I gave him a small smile. I'm sure in that moment I looked pretty pathetic with mascara down my face.

He let out a big sigh and pulled me into his chest. "We'll just go back to my place then," he kissed the top of my head.

I knew I should still be shaken up Mike, and I was, but being in Edward's arms erased a lot of those feelings. I couldn't help but smile when his lips touched my head, I knew he was just trying to be supportive but it felt great.

We went back outside and down to his car. This time the ride was a lot better then the one to the apartment. Edward turned on some music and I felt comfortable being there. "Thank you," I wasn't sure if he could hear me over the music but I felt I had to say it again.

"Bella," the car came to a stop at a red-light, "that never should have happened to you." He turned his body so he could look me better, "I should have been paying more attention to what was going on. That boy," there was venom in his voice, "should never have gotten that close to you. I am sorry that you were put in that situation. I promise it will never happen again." The light turned green and Edward faced forward again.

"Thank you," I didn't know what else to say.

Edward started to laugh, "Stop saying thank you, you silly girl. I am more then happy to be here for you. To be able to help you in which ever way you need me to for as long as you need me to." It brought a smile to my face knowing he would be there for me as long I needed him.

The ride to his place wasn't as long as I thought it was going to be. The boys lived pretty close to our apartment which was nice to know. As we pulled up I found out that the boys didn't live in an apartment like we did instead they had a beautiful house.

"Is this yours?" Edward opened the door for me and I looked up at the house in front of me.

"Yup this is all ours," he led the way to the front door.

He unlocked the door for us then motioned for me to go in before him. The downstairs was beautiful but with a male feel to it.

"So this is it," Edward moved to sand in the living room.

"It is great," I looked around the room then my eyes found him.

"Thanks," he gave me his crocked smile. "So I'm guessing that you want to get out of that dress," I started to blush at his words, something I wish I could control. He started to laugh at my reaction, "No, no, no. Not like that, I'm sorry that sound pretty bad. I just meant that dress doesn't look like the most comfortable thing even if it does look great on you," he hit his forehead when I started to blush again. "This is just getting worse, isn't it? What I'm trying to say is, would you like some clothes to change into?" He ran one of his hands through his hair and I started to laugh. It was hilarious to see him so flustered.

"Yes Edward, it would be nice to get into some normal clothes," I still couldn't help the blush that made its way to my face.

"Okay, I don't have any girl's clothes for you," I hoped that meant he didn't have girls over to his place. "I can give you one of my shirts and pair of shorts if that is okay with you. I know it isn't the best but I'm sure it will be better then that dress," he gave me a shy smile as he opened the door to his room then let me walk in before him.

His room was great, just like the rest of the house. The floor was wood and the desk in the right corner matched it. The head of the bed was pushed up against the center of the left wall with bed stands on each side. The bedspread was deep green and reminded me of his eyes. Next to the door there was a bookshelf that had many different books and music. Edward made his way to what I assumed was the closet to get clothes for me. I looked around the room some more looking at the different pictures of his family and friends. I noticed that the only people in the pictures were the ones that I had already met.

"I'll just step out into the hall while you change," he set the clothes down on the bed then walked past me.

I quickly changed out of the dress and into Edward's clothes. They smelt amazing, just like Edward. It was hard to describe the way he smelt, I don't think I would be able to. It was a smell that I knew I would never forget but never be able to recreate. A smell that would forever remind me of safety. I looked around his room for a few more minutes before I went back out to the hall. Edward was leaning again the wall on the other side.

"The bathroom is right here if you need to use it," he pointed to the door right next to him.

"Yeah that would be great, thanks."

"I'll be down stairs in the living room. Is there anything I can get you," his eyes searched my face for something.

"I'll be fine but thanks," I walked into the bathroom then shut the door behind me.

I looked into the mirror and softly laughed at myself. "You look like a mess Bella," I had mascara smudges all down my face and my eyes were red from crying. I started to run some warm water while I looked for a towel to use. I got the towel wet then started to wash my face. The water felt great and I made sure to wash my neck where Mike had been kissing me. I wanted to get all traces of him off of me as soon as I could.

After I was satisfied with what I looked like I made my way down to the living room. Edward was sitting on the couch with the TV playing. He must have heard me coming because his face shot back to me. He gave me a big smile as I came to sit next to him.

"Are you sure I can't get you something? Some water or tea? We also have a bunch of food I can make you anything you want," all I wanted in that moment was to be close to him.

"I'm good but thank you," I wrapped my arms around my legs. Edward grabbed a blanket off the chair next to him and laid it over me. "Thanks," I gave him a smile.

"I know I shouldn't bring it up Bella," he scouted closer to me and put his arm around me. "But if you ever want to talk about what happened tonight you need to know that I will be here for you," he started to pull away but I grabbed onto him.

"Sorry," I let go of him, "it just feels nice to have you near. It feels safe," I whispered the last part as I looked down at my hands.

He just pulled me closer, "I have no problem with this at all."

I rested my head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat. I felt safe and warm in his arms and I never wanted to leave. Edward absently started to rub circles on my back which felt wonderful. The last thing I remembered was someone humming, I wasn't sure if it was coming from the TV or Edward. I feel asleep not long after the humming started. That night I slept more peacefully then I ever had before.
