I don't own Twi or its characters

A/N

This a long one…

So there are not a lot of lemons in this chapter because I'm trying to tell a story and I really needed to lay out a strong foundation for the school.

David Wooderson is Mathew Mcana-douches character in Dazed and Confused, if you need more help than that with the reference then you need to go watch the film right now because it's an American Classic!

Ch5: This Is High School, What Is A Friend Anyway?

BPOV

(Alma Mater by Alice Cooper)

After turning off my phone alarm I laid there in a daze. My sex dream about Edward was still dancing in my head and between my thighs. (Sigh) 8:15 got to get up. I jumped in the shower and quickly washed my body and hair. After blow-drying and brushing my teeth, I sat back on my bed and stared at my uniform laid across my desk. I was beginning to have second thoughts about asking Alice for her help. Who was I kidding, with my luck the whole thing would backfire and I would be left alone and heartbroken…which I guess is no worse off than I am right now. So it's settled.

"I'm so doing this" I said aloud to confirm my seriousness. I put my uniform on and looked at the Mary Jane's. I guess now is as good a time as any to begin my 'transformation'. I threw my chucks back into the closet and slipped my feet into the naughty porcelain doll shoes and went to look in the mirror. A blush crossed my face as the dream came back to me.

"Edward Cullen eat your heart out" I smirked. I must admit when Aunt Pat is right she's right. The shoes did complete the outfit in a way that my chucks never would. My Jansport, the first bag pack I've ever owned was packed and ready to go so I grabbed my keys and made way to the kitchen.

Bell's,

Left for work. Have a great first day!

-Dad

Charlie was never good with saying 'I love you' but I knew what he meant through the note. I went grocery shopping yesterday investing in quick breakfast meals. I poured a glass of vanilla soy milk and downed it along with a Quaker oatmeal bar and headed out the door. Cherry Bomb roared to life with an attitude about being awakened so early.

"Come on Cherr get mama to school in one piece"

She was named after an old Runaway's song "Cherry Bomb" she was cherry red and feisty it seemed fitting. The school campus was located in the hills within the Kirkland Community gates. 9:30 I reached the gates and was greeted by the same guard from the night of the party.

"Darla" He tipped his hat and smiled. I could tell he was even more amused than he had been the night of the party at the sight of me in my prestigious Kirkland Preparatory uniform sitting in my old beat up truck.

"It's Bella actually, Darla is just an inside joke between me and my cousin Emmett. Trent and Patricia McCarty are my aunt and uncle."

"Oh, I see. Well, Miss McCarty…"

"Swan, McCarty is my mother"

"Well, Miss Swan (putting extra emphasis on my proper name) be careful. Don't let those Kirk Prep kids take advantage of a nice girl like you."

"Thanks" I said dryly as I drove in. Do I have innocent naiveté stamped on forehead? No really, what am I a dear in headlights? I mean I know I'm not the most experienced girl on the block but really people, I'm not about to get in the back of David Wooderson's van either. I turned my stereo back up and drove in.

She gave you everything she had, But she was young and dumb, She'd just turned twenty-one (Cherry Lips by Garbage)

One modification I made sure of for my truck was a kick ass stereo system.

Great, BMW BMW BMW Mercedes, Lexus, Audi, Lexus, BMW, Volvo, Mercedes…and then there was me.

Go Baby Go Go, We're right behind you, Go baby Go Go, Yeah we're looking at you

9:45, Time to get this show on the road. I hopped out with my book bag and began to make way through the parking lot. People were staring at me as I walked past. I felt a deep crimson blush spread across my face and neck, no mirror needed, I knew it was crimson by the level of embarrassment and awkwardness I felt as I walked.

"Oh my god is that her?" a girl with a high pitched voice whispered loudly and giggled.

"I know Jess, right!? Nice ride" I recognized the voice. Lauren that 2 bit…

"Thanks" I looked her dead in the eyes and kept walking. She and three other girls were leaning against the stair rails leading up to the overwhelmingly huge thick wooden school doors. The building was intimidating. Old and brown. Cathedral like in the design. Stained glass windows and ugly animal looking statues adorned the top. I looked up and held my breath as I walked in.

"Isabella Marie Swan?" A pretty girl with black hair and pink designer glasses approached me extending her hand. She wasn't at the party, or was she? No, definitely not. "I'm Angela, Angela Webber…Yes, Dean Webbers daughter." She smiled and rolled her eyes jokingly answering my question before I could ask it.

"Hi" I shook her hand "and it's just Bella actually" I smiled back.

"Well "just Bella", I'm here to show you to your locker and answer any questions you may have about your schedule."

I looked around the hall but saw no sign of who I was looking for. Angela was standing there trying to figure out what I was looking for as she held out a ½ sized sheet of paper in her hand.

"Oh, um right my schedule." I looked it over and my face fell.

"Is something wrong? Is it not right?" she looked confused and concerned.

"Gym, I um, I just, I hate gym" I forced a smile.

"Oh, tell me about it!" she laughed. "So follow me and I'll take you to your locker" She started walking and motioned for me to follow. As we walked I continued searching combing every square inch in front of me hopping to catch a glimpse of green eyes or bronze tousled locks. I saw nothing but a sea of kids all in the same uniform.

"Here it is, 247, up top" She pated my locker door. "The combination is on your schedule. Don't worry I didn't peak."

"Oh um right." I looked at the number and began to turn. It stuck a bit but eventually popped right open. "Hey, thanks for taking the time to show me my locker um…"

"Angela"

"Right Angela, thanks"

"No problem, if you need anything, anything at all don't be afraid to ask. I'm not like everyone else here. Like you I live outside of Kirkland. I only go here because I get free tuition with my dad being the dean and all." She smiled warmly. I couldn't help but smile back. She was being serious and genuine and I really did appreciate her efforts. A silent beat passed as I began to unload my things into my locker. I saw them out of the corner of my eye.

(Yoo Hoo by Luscious Jackson)

"The crew" as Emmett called them. They entered together and parted the hall like it was the red sea. Kids literately scrambling to get out of their way as Alice skipped along side of Rosalie who was doing the best Gisele inspired catwalk I had ever seen, while Jasper sauntered with a sexy grin on his face, big threatening looking Emmett in the middle behind Rosalie, And then…Edward. He walked with a swagger, hair a sexy mess, green bedroom eyes, and his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, tie loose and hands in his pockets. My breath hitched and I stared as they walked towards me.

"Oh them" Angela said simply "Three of the most powerful families in the country let alone the school, and boy do they know it" she rolled her eyes.

As they passed, Alice winked at me causing another red face rush as I looked down at my shoes. I swear I heard yoo hoo by Luscious Jackson play like a scene from a movie while they walked away in slow motion.

"Do you know them?" she asked with a look of awe and confusion.

"Um, I'm a McCarty, my mom is um I mean Emmett is my cousin" I nervously stuttered. "We all kind of grew up together till I moved when I was 10"

"Wow, what's it like growing up with all of that money…if you don't mind me asking…never mind that was rude I'm sorry. It's just…" She looked down embarrassed

"No, it's ok. Um really I don't know. I lived a pretty simple life in Phoenix for the most part. And now I live with my dad just outside of the golden gates" We both laughed.

"I'm glad you're here Bella Swan (RING RING)" The school bells chimed and students began to filter into their classes. "The crew", I totally need a new name for them, were gathered around their lockers all conveniently placed side by side. "Fucking power" I whispered to myself.

Edward met my eyes for the briefest of moments. Lust, sorrow, confusion, and tiredness swept across his beautiful face as his brows furrowed. I looked away out of embarrassment for ogling. I was trying to place his emotions. Really! I wasn't staring at his chiseled jaw or the way his shirt and blazer hung against his god like body. (RING RING) The second bell broke the spell.

"Come on Swan, we don't wanna be late on the first day. I smiled in response and headed for my first class. As I walked I watched Alice and Rose kiss good day on each other's cheek as they parted ways. Alice skipped like a naughty school girl holding on to Jaspers hand as she pulled him in to a class room. Rosalie cat walked off with Edward, and Emmett stood outside of room 113 waiting for me.

"Political theory?" I asked him with a raised eyebrow.

"Yup, shall we" he held the door open for me and I entered the class room. I recognized a few faces from the party, but no one I knew by name. As I tried to sit in the front row, I felt Emmett grab me by the backpack to stop me

"Whoa Bells, front row? Nonono" he smirked as he gestured to two seats next to each other off to the left 2 rows back. I sighed.

"What was I thinking" We sat waiting for the teacher.

"Hello Everyone! I am Dr. Dungy and this is Ancient-Political-Theory" he wrote on the board as he spoke. I began taking notes like a good student, Emmett laughed at my efforts.

Knock Knock Knock

(Popular by Nada Surf)

"Yes Mr. uh…"

"James, James VanGunderson" I looked up to see a tall, muscular, handsome blond with sky blue eyes and a sly panty dropping grin on his face.

"Ah yes Mr. VanGunderson, welcome back to Kirkland"

A wave of giggles and whispers washed through the class room as "James" sauntered down the row between Emmett and my seat.

"McCarty" he grinned. I looked up at Emmett and his mouth hung open with irritation on his face.

"VanGunderson, what the fuck are you doing here"

"Oh Em, I'm touched by that warm reception, I missed you too sweet- heart…hi there" he shot a smile my way and extended his hand "James"

"Bella" I choked out before turning back around to focus on my notes.

"As I was saying…" Dr. Dungy continued. I leaned over to whisper in Em's ear.

"What's the deal with old blue eyes?" Em snorted

"James VanGunderson, as in VanGunderson Bank. He went here freshman year, but then he left to go to boarding school. Word on the street is that his sorry ass got kicked out, now he's back. Edward is gonna flip a bitch!"

"Why would Edward care?"

"He and VanGunder-douche were kind of rivals. You know, went after the same girls, after the same power. With James gone Edie boy ran the school and now…well I guess stay tuned" he laughed while a hint of excitement for drama to come danced in his eyes.

"So, Mr. VanGunderson, please dazzle me with your boarding school education. What was the premise for Plato's Republic, and please spare me the cliff notes synopsis"

"Well, It's a book about what not to do, how not to run a country" he answered Dr. Dungy's request. Too bad he was so way…

"Wrong" Shit did I just say that out loud? Fuck.

"Please Miss um" he leaned forward from his desk waiting for me to tell him my name.

"Swan, Bella Swan" He looked at his role sheet searching for a "Bella"

"AH-ha, Isabella Swan, Welcome to Kirkland Miss Swan"

"Thank you" again I felt the bright red creep up my face

"Well, please Miss Swan, enlighten us. What was 'wrong' about Mr. VanGunderson's answer?"

"Well, um, it uh, it's a book about irony. The irony of power politics."

"Elaborate please"

"Yes, it's a book on what not to do, but the irony of it is that there is no choice. That is the only way to do it. It sucks, but its reality. The irony is that we know it sucks but we continue to do it. There has to be warrior class, a merchant class and a ruling class to society. We know there should be a better way but really there is none. It's an ironic tragedy"

"Ahhh very good Miss Swan"

My face burned with embarrassment. I wanted to crawl into a hole and die! I used my hair to shield my face from onlookers.

"Well that is all the time we have for today…Miss Swan is of course correct this is a piece about irony. Think about that as you reread the first two books and have them prepared for tomorrow's class."

With that everyone including myself began to gather their things. I stood up and bent to grab my bag pack when another hand beat me to it.

"Very good Miss Swan" James slithered as he handed me my bag with an asshole grin on his face.

"Thanks" was all I could manage. He brushed past me and exited the room

"Fucking prick!" Emmett fumed "Man I hate that guy"

"I don't know, he doesn't seem that bad…I mean no worse than others" Em gave me a shocked look. I couldn't believe I just said that either but for all I know maybe he wasn't that bad. Maybe getting away from Kirkland for a year made him a better person.

"Bells, you're fucking kidding right, I mean the guy is a total jack ass, you saw how sure of himself he was"

"I'm just saying Em, to me he seems no more assholish than anyone else around here."

"Whatever B…so what do you have next?

"Gym" I sighed.

"Ouch, no worries, I'm sure Alice can get you out of it" Right, Alice and her rolled up, sways as she skips skirt. I'm sure she could commit murder in the halls and have some poor teacher take the fall for it.

"See ya at lunch then" I yelled half way down the hall

"Ya! See ya"

Thank god it was the first day so all we did was go over the syllabus, gym dress code and safety procedures. Lauren and that Jessica girl were in my class. Now I really was considering having Alice work her magic to get me out of this.

RING RING

"Ok ladies, tomorrow we dress out and begin with volleyball, have a great lunch"

I stood up and made my way down the gym bleachers. When I got to the bottom I was nudged violently by someone.

"Watch it Marry" Laruen snapped with Jessica giggling in tow. I just stared after her with narrowed eyes. 'Marry' what the F kind of insult was that?

I made my way to the cafeteria as anxiety began to take me over. I've never done the cafeteria thing before, where the hell am I supposed to sit? Do I sit by myself? Is there assigned seating? I made my way through the line not really hungry. I grabbed an apple to nibble on and a lemonade to sip. I finished paying at the front when a loud high pitched voice yelled out my name.

"Bella" It was Alice. She waved me over to the table where she sat between Jasper and Edward with Rose and Emmett sitting on the other side.

"Silly Bella, you're sitting with us aren't you?" how could anyone say no to those wide puppy dog eyes. I felt people stare as I, the new girl, headed over to the royal lunch table.

"Yeah, I guess" I smiled as I sat next to Emmett directly across from Edward who was too busy playing with his iphone to look up and acknowledge me. What the hell is his problem?

"You guys don't eat?" I noticed none of them had food in front of them.

"God no!" Rose sneered

"The boys do sometimes, but Rose and I have a more refined palate than cafeteria food" Alice clarified. "So ma petite, how has your first day been so far?"

"S'okay I guess. I met a really nice girl named Angela this morning."

"Angela…yeah don't know her" she thought for a moment.

"Oh um she's Dean Webber's daughter"

"Oh, HA! I didn't even realize he had a family" she laughed.

"Right, um Em and I had political philosophy together" I looked at Emmett and then back to Edward…nothing, I was getting irritated.

"YA and you'll never guess what son of a bitch walked in there 5minutes late…James VanGunderson" all of their mouths dropped and Edward finally glanced up.

"Oh ya" I chimed in "he was nice, he introduced himself to me"

"Um Bella, sweetie, James isn't nice…trust me, he has an angle, he always has an angle." Alice sounded genuinely concerned by my comment.

"Ya, same old James always going for the Marys, OWE! Alice what the Fuck why did you kick me!" Alice gave her that 'change the subject' glare. Mary, what the hell is a Mary.

"That's the second time someone has called me that today…I don't get it"

Everyone bit their tongues to stifle their laughs.

"Ma petite it means you're innocent, you know virginal" Alice explained, as understanding and redness filled my face. Virginal? But…

"But I'm not a…I mean I've already done that" it stumbled out of my mouth. Shit, word vomit, I really need to get that in check…well that seemed to have gotten his attention. Rosalie chocked on her iced tea.

"WHAT! Spill right now" she ordered.

"It's nothing, there's really no story" I stared at the table as Edward's eyes bored through me.

"Wow! I must say I'm a little impressed, maybe there's a little McCarty in you after all" Rose joked.

"So what's your next class Bella?" Alice asked changing the awkward subject as she leaned her head playfully on Jaspers shoulder. I could tell that in spite of "Kirkland politics" he really adored her. I pulled out my schedule as the first bell rang

"Biology" I looked up as Edward met my eyes with a furrowed annoyed brow. Seriously, I swear he's been taken over by Jekyll and Hyde. I stood up and smiled at everyone

"So I guess I'll see you all later" no one moved… "Ok, bye"

"Au revoir, ciao Bella" Alice blew me a kiss. I laughed and turned to head over to my locker. When I got there I was met by the same blond hair blue eyed boy from this morning.

"Bella" my name slid off of his lips

"Yes, can I help you?" I had no idea what he could possible want.

"Well, you seem to know a lot about the Republic, I was um wondering" he grabbed a piece of my hair as if to remove a piece of lint and brush it back. "If maybe you and I could study together?"

"Sure" I said with a smile "I'll let my cousin Emmett know that we're forming a study group. Great idea James" His face fell and his mouth hung open as I turned on my heels and headed off to Bio.

"Um yeah, great idea, let me know what he says" He called after me trying to salvage himself. I just waved my hand back at him and kept walking. I decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, but mama didn't raise no fool! I knew where he was going with that.

I found my Bio classroom, room 129, and crossed the threshold to enter. OH NO! My heart stopped. There he sat by himself at the only lab table with an open seat. I stood there in the front of the class staring. He met my gaze with the same furrowed brow and annoyed expression he had in the cafeteria. Now I was getting pissed. Pull it together Swan. I took a deep breath and went to sit in the open seat next to him. As I sat I was met with a whiff of his delicious scent. My body began to betray me as my panties became damp and more uncomfortable with each sniff. My dream flooded my brain and a soft moan escaped my lips. He looked me up and down with lust filled eyes as if he could read my mind. Edward opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out and just as quickly he closed it. GOD! Just ask him, ask him what the hell is going on! What the hell is his problem? Ask him how he can be so tender and loving only to run out in the middle of the night and ignore you the next day.

"I…"

"Hello Hello! I am Dr. Banner, and this is Advanced Biology, welcome everyone" I was interrupted. Shit! I looked forward and took out my note book and a pen and began to take notes. Suddenly I felt a piece of paper nudge my arm. I looked over to see Edward sliding it towards me.

Did you enjoy the party?

That's it, that's all he had to say? I was fuming.

Yes

That was all I could scribble out without screaming. I pushed the paper back towards him without looking. I saw him chuckle with that sexy crooked grin out of the corner of my eye. Why was I mad at him again? Oh yeah, because he's being an ass.

You looked like you were having a great time on the bar…black lace panties?

Oh my gosh! My face must have turned 10 shades of tomato red. I tried to curtain my hair around my face to hide as I wrote back.

You made it very clear that my panties are to be none of your concern.

I continued to pretend to take notes. My concentration was shot. Did he really think he could just make a comment about my panties after ignoring me all day? I was more determined now than I was last night to go through with operation make Bella sexy. Two could play this game.

I'm sorry about that. I just think it would be better if we were just friends. You know like when we were kids…Mi Bella

Friends? Friends, were we ever really friends? Even when we were 10 we were more than just friends, but if that's the way he wants it then fine.

Fine. But "Mi Bella" isn't a kid anymore.

There was nothing else to say. Just friends. The bell rang and he ran out before I even gathered all of my things. I was shaking with anger, just friends.

The rest of the day was a blur. Trigonometry, Study hall, and American Literature to end the day.

When I entered my American Lit class I was relieved to see a familiar face.

"La Bella, ma petite amie"

"Hey Jasper" it was clear in my voice that I was not having a great afternoon.

"You ok kid?"

"Yup, just rich kids and power plays"

"Awe don't let KP get you down. This place is easier to figure out than you think"

"Yeah, SFS right?" I snorted. Snort Fuck and Spend, doesn't get any easier than that. Jasper just laughed.

An hour the bell rang and I was finally free. Alice was supposed to meet me in the parking lot. I made a quick trip to my locker passing James in the hall.

"Bella" he smirked

(Supervixen By Garbage)

"(602) 567-3832" I called out to him as I walked backwards meeting his gaze on my way to my locker "call me when you want to study"

His grin widened as he turned to keep walking, I did the same. Take that Cullen! You just wanna be friends, fine friends it is.

When I finally made it to the parking lot I spotted Alice leaning against a silver Volvo talking to Jasper and Rose. Edward was standing on the other side leaning against the open driver's side door lighting a cigarette. I casually walked up, and quickly glanced at Edward before I directed my attention to Alice.

(Fix You Up by Tegan and Sarah)

"Hey" I so eloquently said

"Bonjour Darling" she cooed. I swear they all talked liked they were in some bad film noire. "So, what can do for you Bella?"

"Um" I looked up at Edward again, "not here"

"Ok" she smiled, I turned to walk towards my truck and Alice followed. "Is this monstrosity yours?" she sounded horrified at the site of my beat up American made truck. "Oh no Bella, you're definitely gonna ride with one of us as much as possible" I rolled my eyes.

"So, I have a proposition for you."

"Shoot" she waited with anticipation. I could tell she was restraining herself from bouncing up and down with excitement.

"I uh, I was wondering if maybe you and Rose could um teach me?"

"Teach you?..." she looked confused

"You know, how to be like you. Sexy, sophisticated, Kirkland Prep material"

"You mean like a makeover" she was jumping up and down at the thought of getting me into designer clothes and makeup.

"Yeah sort of. I wanna stop hearts when I walk in, I wanna make others jealous"

"Wait, this doesn't sound like you Bella, does this have anything do that debile brother of mine?" I looked down at the ground and blushed slightly. "Look Bella, you know I'm gonna help you no matter what, but you should know that he likes you just the way you are."

"HA!" it was bitter and full of hatred and irritation "Ya that's why he just wants to be friends right, he told me in biology quote "I just think it would be better if we were just friends" so he can continue to fuck every "Lauren" that crosses his path" pity filled her beautiful green eyes.

"I'm sorry Bella. I mean I know he wants you, but I'm sure he has his reasons."

"Whatever..so are you gonna help or not" I could feel the tears rush to my lashes.

"Of course silly Bella. Come spend the night tonight. When Rose and I are done with you the prick won't know what hit him!"

"Thanks Alice" We hugged and I hopped into my truck to head home. She skipped back over to the Volvo and I felt Edward stare as I drove out of the school parking lot and out of the Kirkland Community.

EPOV

I've had a rock in my stomach ever since I saw her face when I told her that we should just be friends. Rejection, humiliation, irritation all played on her delicate features. Not my intentions.

(Breaking the Girl by the Red Hot Chile Peppers)

Fuck! I wanted to grab hold of Bella and hug her close to reassure her. I needed to do something to make this right. Let her know that I want her, but we need to be friends first so that I don't hurt her. I could never hurt her. She was too precious, and too important to my well being. I lost her once 7 years ago when she disappeared. I'll be dammed if I'm gonna let that happen again. The bell rang and I ran out before I could say something to make the situation worse.

My next two classes were a blur until I got to statistics. My last class of the day. I waltzed in and was stopped in my tracks by the most obnoxious creature known to man.

"VanGunderson…I see they let your sorry ass back in here. Carlisle should talk to Dean Webber about the lowering of admissions standards. Hell, if they're just gonna let any fucktard in what's the fucking point" I sat two seats behind him.

"Awe what's the matter lover I thought you'd be thrilled to see me" He turned back around and I snorted in response. A few minutes passed and he turned again to address me.

"So Cullen, did you get a look at the new Mary with chocolate brown hair and creamy thighs. Man I could get lost in between those legs for days" Was this prick talking about my Bell? OH FUCK NO!

"She's a little out your league don't you think" I said through gritted teeth and a clenched jaw.

"Oh, Edie boy untwist your panties and calm yourself…and nobody is out of my league" This mother fucking son of a bitch he sniffed the air "what's that I smell" (sniff sniff) "mmm, awe yes, I smell a bet coming on"

"Fuck you James"

"What's the matter Edie boy afraid you'll lose?"

"Nope, I just don't play with fags. Besides you should know better than to bet against me VanGunderson, we all know what happened last time" Only I knew the real reason why James got shipped off to boarding school for a year, Like I said, never been in a fight, never had to be, I could handle my "situations" just fine without fists. His face turned tomato red and I swear I saw steam radiate from his angry scowl. The class passed relatively quickly. We stood to leave but before I could walk away he called after me

"Game on Cullen" Game on, what the fuck is that supposed to mean.

(Sober by Tool)

I made my way to my Volvo in the parking lot, Lucy's to precious to be an everyday car. Alice was already waiting for me along with Rose and Jasper. I opened my driver's door and lit a cigarette. I'm a nervous fucking wreck! "Game on" what the fuck! I swear to God if he gets with in one foot of my beautiful Bella I'll rip his fucking head off…Speaking of…she walked towards my car with a sad expression on her face.

"Hey" she spoke softly. Her hair and skirt blew slightly in the summer breeze and her bag hung off of her right shoulder as she addressed Alice. God she was fucking hot in those naughty little Mary Jane's and knee highs. She had no idea what she was doing to me. My dick twitched as it got harder with each little peek the breeze allowed up her skirt.

"Bonjour Darling" she cooed. "So, what can I do for you Bella?"

"Um" she looked up at me and my heart sank at the sight of the sadness and rejection in her eyes, "Not here"

"Ok" Alice smiled. They walked towards a hideous cherry red truck I assumed to be Bella's. That's no good. One of us will take her to school from now on. That thing looked like a death trap.

What could she possibly need to talk to Alice about away from ear shot? My curiosity was frustrating me. After what seemed like hours she hopped into her truck causing her skirt to lift allowing for the slightest glimpse of white boy cut panties that barley covered her luscious ass cheeks. Was she about to cry? Fuck Cullen good job, this day just keeps getting worse and worse. Alice skipped back over to the car and opened the passenger door.

"What the fuck was that all about?" Rose asked, I listened intently.

"Nothing, Bella just needs our help later. Drop Jasper off and meet me at my house, we have some shopping to do" Alice met my curious and confused eyes.

"Ready Eddie" I groaned, I fucking detested that people used the name Eddie, it's just so juvenile and dare I say trashy. She had a sly grin on her face. She's up to something. That fucking irritating pixie was medaling. "I just thought you should know that Bella is spending the night tonight"

Great, I'll be sure not be there. I wasn't ready to sleep under the same roof as her again. At least not with the image of her sexy little ass in that plaid skirt running around in my head. I just don't think I'd be able to control myself. I gave her a half ass smile and nod. With that we speed off to the house.

A/N

I'm sure I'll have one or 2 more chapters up by Sunday night because the creative juices are flowing and it's just cruel to leave everyone hanging on this smut free chapter lol. Stay tuned, there might even be a new one up by tonight, I'm kind on a roll right now : )…In chapters to come…More mama drama as Bella deals with her mom in rehab, will Edward be there to comfort her or will James be the one she turns to (you should all know that I'm very Team Edward ; )) Will she go through with her sexy transformation or will a certain someone let her know that it is very unnecessary. Does James really stand a chance with Bella or is she just using him to make another jealous? Muahaha *evil laugh* keep reading and reviewing and I'll keep writing!
