"Don't Ever Feel Alone"

"Chapter 6: Perfect Person"

(Bella's P.O.V)

It's been 2 months since I went to Alice's house, and everything has been going great, everyone's has become really close, especially me and Alice. I guess you could call us inseparable, we're always together. And that's why I find spending time with her bitter-sweet. My feelings for her have escalated and I don't really know what to do about it. I know I shouldn't be having these feelings for her I mean she's a girl, not to mention my best friend.

But it's hard not to have these feelings around her. Like when we cuddle whilst watching a movie, or when we are linking arms or just being with her in general. I just don't know what to do any more, I have tried pushing these feelings out of mind mind. But it's getting harder to.

"Bella, you still there?" Alice's voice rang through the speaker of the phone, and I scolded myself for spacing out, if there is one thing I have learnt while being friends with Alice it's that she is the only one who can read me from over the phone.

"Ugh yeah sorry, I was just....thinking" I said and I could hear the cogs ticking in her head.

"Thinking about what?" seriously how does she make me blush from over the phone?

You "um nothing important....so what were you talking about before I went quiet?" Please! Please just let it go Alice!

"Bella!, you're changing the subject!" she scolded from down the phone, I rolled my eyes and lay back on my bed staring at the ceiling.

"I'm not Allie, seriously, it's just something that you don't need to worry about" I said lying to her, of course she should worry about it! Her best friend has got romantic feelings for her. But at least she doesn't know that part.

I heard her sigh on the other end, "Okay Bella, but I know whatever you are thinking about is bothering you, you have been spacing out a lot lately, I just wish you would tell me what's wrong" she whined and I could tell she was pouting, I hated it when I upset her, but this wasn't something that I could just tell her casually.

"Don't be upset Allie please! I promise I will tell you when I'm ready okay?" I said pleadingly,

"Fine" she said in a frustrated tone, I pinched the bridge of my nose and spoke to her in a soft tone,

"So what is it that you was saying to me earlier?" I asked and she replied in her usual tone, all of the sadness vanished.

"Oh yeah! Emmett wants us all to go out tonight, you know just for a drink and maybe some dancing, and I wanted you to come with us" she said in a hyper tone, and I grumbled, I really hate dancing!

"Alice you know I hate dancing!" I said to her and she whimpered,

"Oh come on Bella, you don't have to dance, just come for a drink, Rosalie, Jacob and Jasper are coming too, and it will be no fun for me if you don't come" she said and I hated when she used the guilt trip.

"I don't know Alice" I said teasing her,

"Come on Bella it's Friday night! Live a little, Please! For me!" Damn her and her ability to persuade me!

"You know that's not fair" I said laughing down the phone,

"Is that a yes then?" she asked in a hopeful tone,

"Sure" I said in a moan, and Alice squealed on the other end of the phone,

"It's gonna be fun Bella, you'll see!" she said and I just grunted and shook my head,

"You're unbelievable" I stated and she just giggled,

"You know you love it" she said and I was biting my lip so hard trying not to comment on that statement!

"So I will pick you up at 7:00 okay" she said and I released my lip,

"Okay, see you later Allie"

"Bye Bella" and then she put down the phone and chucked it to the end of my bed, I rubbed my face with my hands and let out an exasperated sigh. I looked over to the clock to find that it was 5:00, I only had two hours to get ready, so I decided to have a quick shower, I needed to clear my head, and I am definitely not dancing tonight, embarrassing myself is not going to be one of the things I enjoy doing on a Friday night.

By the time I had gotten out of the shower it was 5:45, I still had a while before she picked me up, I decided to get changed, I put on a grey top with a kind of arrow pattern on it and some black skinny jeans with my black high top converse.

Finally it was 7:00 and I looked out of my window to see Alice's yellow Porsche in my driveway, she honked the horn and I laughed at her as she looked up to my window and smiled, I shook my head and proceeded out of the door, I locked it and walked down to her car.

When I reached it I jumped in and was greeted with a tight hug, she pulled back and smiled at me,

"Hey Bella" she said in her chirpy tone, but I couldn't manage any words out.....

she looked amazing from what I could see, and she smelled amazing, I can't even describe it.

She was wearing a long sleeved grey t-shirt with a black lapel, and she wore a scarf around her neck, and black skinny jeans with black boots. In other words....beautiful.

I noticed that she was looking me over too, most likely because I wasn't wearing something to her liking, I took my eyes away from her to shift them to look out of the window, I cleared my throat and that seemed to get her out of her thoughts,

"You look great Bella" she said in a sincere tone and I looked to her with a shocked expression, but It then turned into a smile,

"Thanks ,So do you" I confessed trying my best to hide the blush on my cheeks, she smiled to me and put her hands on the steering wheel and pulled out of the driveway.

In no time at all we were at the bar we were meeting at, it was called 'Club Crush' we came across it a couple of weeks ago and now we seemed to go here all the time.

When we got inside we noticed everyone sitting at our usual table. Emmett was sitting there with his arm around Rosalie, and Jacob was sitting between Edward and Jasper.

Emmett noticed me and shouted over to us, "Hey look who's here, about time too!" he shouted and I smiled and looked to a giggling Alice.

"Hey Emmy, hey everyone" I teased using the nickname he hated, he glared at me, and I just stuck out my tongue to him. I motioned for Alice to sit down first so she sat next to Jasper and I sat beside Rosalie, Alice looked a bit miffed that I didn't sit next to her but I'm trying not to get too close to her tonight,

"So how did Alice coax you into coming tonight Bella?" Edward asked and I looked to her to see an innocent expression on her face,

"Well she did the whole 'if you don't come, I'll be upset' line" I said smirking at her,

"Well I would have been" she said and I could see a slight blush on her cheeks, I looked back to see everyone smirking apart from Jacob who seemed to look nervous.

"You okay Jake?" I shouted over the music, he seemed to look up as if he only just noticed I was there,

"Oh yeah, I'm just really....ugh....thirsty, does anyone want a drink?" he asked and everyone told him what they wanted, I didn't want to drink too much tonight so I just ordered a Vodka and Coke.

He left the table quicker than I have ever seen him move, I looked to Rosalie with confusion and she leaned to my ear and whispered,

"You know, he's been getting nervous about you coming all day" she stated and I looked over to where Jacob was standing at the bar,

"what do you mean" I whispered back, she rolled her eyes,

"Well why else would a guy be getting nervous about a girl coming to hang out with them" she replied and I finally caught on to what she was saying, I looked over the table to see Alice's eyes on me, when she knew that she was caught staring she quickly shifted her eyes to her lap. Why is everyone acting strange tonight.

It was then that Jacob came back over with a tray of drinks, thankfully Jacob could pass as an 18 year old so he could buy alcohol.

"Here ya go Bells" he said handing my my glass, he placed it in front of me carefully and then handed everyone else there's.

I sipped my drink and glanced to Emmett who had one of his mischievous smiles on his face,

"Hey, Rose, come on, let's leave these boring guys to drink their night away" he exclaimed pulling a smirking Rose behind him up to the dance floor, the song had just changed to 'Bad Romance' by Lady Gaga and everyone in the place was crowding up the dance floor.

Eventually Edward and Jasper went to dance and there was just me, Alice and Jacob at the table. Jacob was sweating like a pig, I've never seen him this nervous and from what Rose said earlier I have a feeling about why he is nervous.

I saw Alice stand up from the corner of my eye and walk over to me, she had a big smile on her face, "Bells come dance with me!" she shouted through the music. There was no way in hell that I was going to be that close to her with the thoughts that are going round in my mind at the moment.

"I'm a bit tired Allie, you go and have fun though" I shouted and there was utter disappointment on her face, it pained me to see it but it was for her own good.

I watched as she looked to Jacob's nervous form before she turned and skulked off toward the dance floor, but soon enough she was smiling and having fun with Jasper, it kinda pained me to see them dancing together so close but I couldn't actually go up to them and stop them without giving a reasonable explanation.

I looked to Jake who was still glistening with sweat and rolled my eyes, I wish he would just make a move or something, does he not know that I have known him long enough to read him like a book. I needed another drink.

"Jake I'm gonna get another drink" I shouted through the music, he managed a weak nod and scooted off my chair and to the bar, I walked round everyone dancing, I saw Alice smiling as she danced with Jasper, they actually looked like a nice couple together.....what a kick in the teeth for me.

As I approached the bar I ordered another Vodka and Coke, and I just stood there thinking about how my life never goes the way I want it to. My thoughts were broken by a tap on my shoulder,

I turned around to find Jake standing there smiling at me,

"Bella, um could I.....could I speak to you for a minute?" he asked nervously and I just stood there with my mouth open like an idiot, I knew this was coming...so why was I so surprised.

"Umm sure Jake" I said and he grabbed the drink out of my hand and placed it on the bar. He took my hand and pulled me towards the dance floor, the song had changed by now and was 'I'm with you' by Avril Lavigne, it was quieter so I could hear what he was saying without him having to shout.

He pulled me closer to him and we danced in a slow rhythm, everyone from our table was now sitting down and I could feel their eyes on us, I looked over to see Alice's expression filled with hurt and curiosity, and I looked away from her gaze to focus on Jacob furrowed eyebrows.

"Bella, you know we've been friends forever right, even when you went to live with your aunt" he stated and I nodded my head slowly waiting the moment I was dreading the most,

"Well in that time I think I've grown closer to you, you know not in a brother type of way but...in another type of way" he murmured, here it comes......

"What I'm trying to say is that I have......feelings for you" why is my life such a soap opera.

"Oh" was all I could say, even though I had my speech already in my mind, all planned out.

"Yeah, well I was just wondering if you had any feelings.....for me?" he asked and now was the time to put my speech in motion.

"Jake, I'm flattered that you would have feelings, really, it's just that I don't have romantic feelings towards you, I love you like a brother Jake, I'm just sorry I don't feel anything else for you" I said honestly, we had stopped dancing now and we were just stood in the middle of the floor,

He looked heartbroken for a second but then he smiled at me, with his glistening white smile like the old days,

"Don't be sorry Bella, it's not your fault, I think I knew somewhere deep down that you didn't feel what I feel towards you, but it was worth a shot right" He said smiling at me sadly, I pulled him into a tight hug and he hugged me back,

"I'm sorry Jake" I said into his shoulder and we pulled out of the hug, thankfully I saw a smirk on his face,

"Don't think this gets you out of your wake up calls though" he said laughing, I laughed back and nudged his arm,

"Wouldn't have it any other way" I said and we walked off the dance floor and back over to the table where everyone was staring at us in curiosity,

"What?" we both said in unison and everyone apart from Rose looked away,

"So what were you two talking about" Rosalie said as I sat down beside her and remembering that my drink is over on the bar.

"Nothing that your nosey ears need to know about, I'm gonna go get my drink" I said standing up from my chair and leaving everyone to their sly looks and remarks.

I suppose the good thing about tonight is that Jake took rejection well, and he seemed to be back to normal.

I reached the bar and found that my drink was gone. Great. I ordered another one and put my face in my hands while I waited patiently for it.

"Bella?" came the soft voice that I missed all night. I turned around to see an distraught Alice standing there.

I could see tears in her eyes and I came out of my daze and took her hands in mine, looking at her she continued to look at me with a hurt expression.

"Bella, have I upset you or something?" she said as the tears streamed down her face, I wiped them away and look at her in confusion. And yes it's been confirmed. My life is a Soap Opera.

"Alice, why would you think you upset me?" I asked as I stroked the back of her hands with my thumbs,

"Well I feel like you have been avoiding me all night" she said quietly looking down at the ground, I looked around and grabbed my drink off of the bar and dragged Alice into the hall outside of the club where we could hear each other better.

"Alice, I haven't been avoiding you" I lied and then she looked up,

"Then why didn't you sit next to me like we always do, or come and dance with me when I asked you, but you went and danced with Jacob, do you know how much that hurt me?" she said sobbing more, I didn't realise that me avoiding her would make her this upset. I gently wrapped my arms around her and pulled her in so that her head rested into my neck and I could feel her tears on my skin.

"Alice, I'm sorry, I didn't realise I was upsetting you, it's just I have been dazed for the last couple of weeks and I haven't been acting like myself, and Jacob needed to talk to me and I had no choice to go with him" I stated and she seemed to calm down a little,

"I wish you would talk to me Bella, you don't talk to me any more, you haven't been yourself and I'm worried about you, I don't like seeing you like this" she said and pulled out her head to look into my eyes, I smiled at her and leant forward to kiss her forehead.

"Thank you for worrying about me Allie, but I swear I will tell you when I'm ready okay?" I asked and she nodded her head and I wiped away the last few remaining tears from her eyes.

I knew that even though I try my best I wouldn't be able to not get close to her like I planned, I hate seeing her upset and if my own selfish needs make her upset then I will have to put my cares aside and be just her 'Friend'.

I pulled out of the hug, chugged down my drink and grabbed Alice's hand, she looked to me with a curious smile,

"What are we doing?" she asked as I pulled her back into the club, I looked back and smiled to her, I can't believe I'm gonna do this!

"Were gonna dance" I shouted as I pulled her onto the dance floor, I could hear her giggle over the music as we started to dance, the music was more upbeat now It changed to, 'Starstruck' by 3oh!3 , and I noticed that everyone was dancing now, even Jake. I just forgot about my avoiding plan and enjoyed myself, it wasn't long before me and Alice were grinding to the music and can I just say that this is torture!

The song ended and we were out of breath and walking back to our seats, I sat by Alice this time and she beamed at me and snuggled into my side, her hand holding mine under the table.

I can safely say that this has been a good night, well apart from rejecting Jacob and upsetting Alice. But everything seems to be going fine now. I just hope it stays that way.


It was 11:30pm when we all decided to leave the club, I said my goodbyes to everyone, then me and Alice headed to her car.

The drive was mostly in silence, and I knew that Alice was going to ask me something because I could see her opening and closing her mouth as if stopping herself from talking.

"Bells?"... Finally!

I turned towards her a bit more even though I was looking at her anyway, she glanced at me and then back on the road,

"I was wondering if you wanted to stop over at mine, you know, I mean it must be lonely living on your own and I have stopped at yours more than once" she said with a giggle.

I copied her giggle and nodded my head, "I'd like that Alice" I said and I knew that I should have said no, I mean it would mean I would most likely mean stopping in the same room as her, but I don't want to upset her again.

She smiled at me, "That's great, well we should head to your place and get some of your stuff" she said as she headed down the familiar road.


"Alice....you come near me with that I will literally kick your ass" I said through laughs as I backed up to the wall. She was walking toward me slowly with a mischievous smile,

"Oh stop being so dramatic, it's just a little lip gloss" she said shaking the bottle, and applying some to herself she closed her lips together and looked to me "See it's not that bad"

"Alice you know I hate wearing make up!" I said as eventually hit the wall. Crap, I'm cornered.

"nowhere to go Bells!" she said laughing, I just glared at her placing my arms out in front of my body to hold her back,

"I'm warning you Alice!" I threatened, but Alice being Alice, she still came towards me. I grabbed her forearms so she couldn't move any closer and she bit her lip in concentration as she tried to shake me off, my attention was soon gone as soon as she bit her lip and my arms fell from her arms, it's as if she knows what that does to me,

She wrapped her arms around me and tackled me to the floor, "Gotcha!" she shouted into my neck and I couldn't help but laugh, she sat up a little so she was straddling me. Oh my god! I should have never agreed to stay the night.

"Now are you going to be a good little girl" God she even said that in a sexy tone! What do I exactly say now that is not gonna sound perverse.

"Yes" I think I'm safe, although my voice cracked a little, but I can just blame that on shortness of breath.

"Good! Now we finally see who wears the trousers in this friendship!" she said giving me a smirk and a wink. Yep I'm doomed.

"Well seen as you wear more skirts than I do I think that would be me don't you think?" I said and she placed her hand on her chin, looking like she was in deep thought.

"Nope, I win!" she said laughing and I grabbed her hips and flipped us over so I was pinning her to the floor, I heard her yelp and I laughed my head off at her shocked expression, I grabbed her arms and pinned them above her head, I know that this kind of position is not healthy for me right now but this is too funny.

"I think you will find that I win my dear Alice" I said grinning at her she just glared at me and tried to move her arms, she smirked with her lip gloss glittering in the light.

"I will let you off this time Swan, but I will get this lip gloss on you" she said and I looked at her in amusement,

"Well I'm glad you see it my way Cullen, and I would like to see you try" I said as I started to stand up when I was up fully I extended my hand to her and helped her up.

She went and sat on her bed leaning against the headboard, she looked to me and patted the space next to her, I smiled and went and sat next to her, as soon as I was comfortable she reached for my hand holding it in hers and she leaned her head on my shoulder.

It times like this that I wish that she had the same feelings as me, wait! I thinking about it again! Damn it!

"so you and Jacob seemed a bit out of it tonight, you both okay?" Alice whispered quietly, I almost didn't hear it. Should I tell her about it, I mean, she is my best friend and I don't want to lie to her.

"Oh yeah, were fine I guess, he just kinda asked me out" I said with a light chuckle, but I felt Alice stiffen beside me,

"Oh really? What did you say to him?" she mumbled as she shifted her head off of my shoulder to look into my eyes,

"I told him I just wanted to stay friends, I've never seen Jake as something than my brother so it would be weird if I was dating him, you know?" I said honestly and she seemed to relax at my statement, she smiled at me and stroked the back of my hand,

"Yeah, he seemed okay after that, I'm guessing he took it well" she stated and I just simply nodded,

"Jake has always been understanding, he's the perfect guy it's just he's not perfect for me" I confessed looking into her eyes and I couldn't tare my eyes from them,

"Well I'm glad everything is okay. I think I would love to have someone who likes me like that" she whispered and I bit my tongue from shouting something I would possibly regret.

"You never know Alice, there could be someone stalking your house right now, waiting for you with a bunch of flowers and a love confession" I said giggling, she laughed with me and rested her forehead on mine,

"Well I would just tell them to go away, nothing spoils my bonding time with you" she said and I couldn't help but be wooed at her statement.

"Aww Alice you're gonna make me cry!" I said playfully wiping a fake tear from my eye, she gently nudged my arm and I laughed a little,

"I'm serious, and what if you had the 'perfect for you' guy waiting to ask you out, then what would you do?" she asked and I was mentally answering her 'well for one thing, I'm not interested in a guy, and the second this is that it's you' If I said that I would just book my room in a mental asylum.

"I would say that he can go and be perfect for someone else, because I have already found my perfect person" I mumbled the last part but she looked to me with shock on her face,

"What?" she asked me and I just looked at her with a innocent expression,

"You're hearing is really bad you know that" I said to her laughing, she just glared at me,

"Bella! What do you mean by you already found your perfect person?" she asked with curiosity and shock on her face, if this is what it is like when I say something like that, imagine if I told her that she was my perfect person.

"I have" I simply stated and she looked at me with pain in her eyes, she looks as if I just told her I ran over her cat.

"Who?" she whispered and I smiled at her, and tapped her hands,

"That's a story for another day, trust me" I said as I pulled the blanket over me and lay on my side facing away from Alice with a smile on my face, I could just imagine the possible candidates going over in her head. I heard her groan as she came closer to me and I could feel her breath on my neck,

"Bella!, who is it?" she asked desperately, I rolled my eyes

"Goodnight Alice" I said in a sleepy tone, she shook me gently and I held in a giggle,

"Bella!" she whined, but I just stayed quiet and waited for her to give up, but even I know that would never happen,

"Okay then I will tell you......." a smile broke across her face,

"....If" and then her smile was gone, and I couldn't help but smirk at her,

"If you tell me who you like" and then I saw an expression that was unreadable on her face, she scratched her neck which I knew meant she was nervous or embarrassed.

"you're evil" she murmured glaring at me and she got underneath the covers so she was facing me,

"That's the plan" I whispered, she smiled and turned off the light, it was now pitch black in the room and all I could see was the dim moonlight through the window. I felt Alice reach for my hand and she held it in hers. I still found it extremely hard to be in the same bed with her, but I'm somehow managing it.

"Goodnight Bells" she whispered,

"Night Alice" I whispered back but I was far from tired and I could feel Alice moving around on the other side of the bed in her sleep, I tried to occupy my mind from it by thinking of what excuse to give to Alice about who I like, well it's not really 'like' any more, more like 'love', yeah I'm really gonna come out and say 'yeah Alice.. you are my perfect person' I can just see the look on her face.

I looked over to Alice to see she was fast asleep so I sat up against the headboard. That's when I heard a vibrating sound come from the table next to me and I looked to see that it was my phone.

I picked it up, trying to get my eyes to focus on the brightness, I had a text but it was from an unknown number. When my eyes were fully used to the light I clicked on the text and read it,

'Bella baby, It's been a while I've missed you, I'll be dropping by tomorrow, so I expect you to be there, I found out where you are currently residing so don't worry. And don't bring anyone with you, I want you all to myself'

I heard a bang as my phone drop to the floor, my breathing was erratic, and my sobs were uncontrollable as I put my head in my hands, I'm surprised I didn't wake Alice up and I'm glad she didn't. I didn't want her to see me like this..a scared and nervous wreck.

His words were roaming around in my mind, the text never said who it was but I knew, there was only one person who would call me baby.

And he was back.
