Chapter 13.

Emmett POV

Ever since the talent show everything went downhill; I heard everything that was said to Bella from Tanya. The next few weeks were worse than talent night; Bella got into a car accident and when we got back to school she avoided us like a plague. We tried talking to her and get anything other than a glare or a cold shoulder, the night of the party I didn't think I would see her there but she surprised us all and when she shown up in an outfit we totally didn't think she would wear what she was.

**Flashback**

I saw her dance with a tan man and I didn't like it one bit; I watched as she left his side heading to the bathroom, we all followed her, when she came out Alice couldn't help but attack.
"Bella what are you doing?" Alice screeched
"Oh, what Alice? You upset that you didn't get to dress me? Or is it because I am getting along fine without you punk ass bitches?" she sneered and causing us to flinch
"Bella, you know it's not like that" Edward said
"Really? Then how is it? You know what I don't give a shit; if you don't mind I got me a guy that I need to get back to" she growled bumping all of us in the shoulder walking past us.

After that she just ignored us, that or she said really mean and nasty things but I think that was just so we would leave her alone. I didn't think she actually meant anything she said. Months went by and we started noticing a change in Bella. Well, I did anyways. Sometimes she would come to school with bruises, or limping. At first we just put it down to her being clumsy, but when she snapped at us I could tell her heart wasn't in it anymore. Something was going on, I could see it in her eyes. I confessed my suspicions to Alice. I kind of wish I hadn't because then Alice confronted Bella about it all.
"Bella, please talk to me. You're my best friend" Alice said tearing up
"So I'm your friend now? You selfish bitch" Bella sneered
"Yes you have always been my friend" Alice said causing Bella to scoff
"Please, I am not your friend. Glad to since if having a backstabbing bitch as a friend seems to be good in other people's eyes but not mine now get away from me" She growled.

Bella started to walk away but I knew Alice wouldn't give up easily. She grabbed Bella again and pull her to closer; Bella snatched her hand out of Alice's grasp and slapped her hard. I couldn't believe it! Alice stood there shocked for a moment and raised her hand to her cheek. I looked around and saw Rosalie being held down from attacking Bella.
When Bella left Alice turned to us and stopped up from going after her, she motioned for us to follow her, we walked outside and she launched into her story.
"It's fine you guys, I know why she is upset" Alice said
"Why then?" I couldn't help but ask
"Because I practically told her that we didn't want to be her friends for how she acted towards Tanya" she said hanging her head
"Are you fucking kidding me?" Rosalie roared out in anger
"No, I'm sorry" Alice sobbed
"Alice, you had no right to do that. We still want to be her friends, if it wasn't for this asshole over here maybe Bella would still would have hung out with us" Rosie sneered pointing to Edward
"How is this my fault?" Edward asked
"Really Edward?" I asked
"What?" he asked again
"Think about it. Tanya" Jasper stated walking away from us all
"This is fucked up" I said taking Rose's hand and walked away

I have noticed that Tanya hasn't been showing up to school, I didn't care if she never came back but couldn't help but wonder where she was. It's been a month since everything happened; Rosie found out that Bella has a lot more bruises on her but she wouldn't talk to us about it, Rose and I are at school waiting for Bella to arrive but when the bell rang she never shown up. That was two days ago; I am starting to worry so I told Rose that I was going to go talk to Charlie to see if he knew where she was.

Jasper POV

For the better part I kept quiet; other than trying to talk to Bella but she ignored me I wouldn't blame her. I knew something caused her to withdrawal more from our group other than Tanya; I still think she is bad news but every time I try to say something about her they all interrupt me so I just learned to shut up about that shit.
When Alice told me what she said to Bella I couldn't help but feel for Bella seeing as how Alice planted a seed of doubt in Bella's mind. I still wanted to be her friend; I never liked Tanya but I just couldn't believe Alice would do that shit. Edward was a dumb fucker for going for a bitch like Tanya; hell they didn't even know that she sneaks around on him but I can't say shit to them because they all think she is little miss 'innocent'.

I noticed when Tanya left I just didn't know where she went to but I knew she left; I knew she didn't go to visit her Aunt when she called Edward. I am started to get worried when Bella hasn't been showing up for school these past two days; when I heard Emmett was going to talk to Charlie I decided to go along with him and see if he knew what was going on.

Rosalie POV

I couldn't believe Bella would fucking overreact to something the Alice said to her; I know how she is; she just doesn't know how to come out and talk to us about everything. I do understand where she is coming from though; thinking your friends has one person to speak for them but I would have figured she would know that none of us like anyone speaking for us. I do miss her and wish that she would come out and talk to someone; when I saw her face that day I just wanted to kill someone, my first thought was to hurt Bella for getting into something like this but I saw the pain underneath her glares.

**Flashback**

The last class for the day with everyone of us trying to talk to Bella; Jasper told us how she was in the library when he tried to talk to her, I couldn't help but feel that she is rejecting any form of help from anyone. I was the only one in the locker room when Bellawalked in getting ready to change into her gym clothes; I was about to talk to her but stopped and gasped when I saw hand shaped bruises on her back along with a long gash.
"Bella" I said softly
She didn't say anything; just walked away and sat on the bleachers like she wanted to run but didn't want to get in trouble over anything. Class was finished and I hurried up and got dressed walking outside seeing the other's and explained to them what's going on and decided to confront her about it.
"What the fuck do you want?" she sneered
"We want to know what is going on with you and why do you have bruises on your body" I said leaving out the gash on her back
"Why do you care? Remember I was nothing, like shit on the bottom of your shoes" she growled and got in her car speeding away.

That was the last time we seen her in two days; I couldn't help but start to worry about where she was, when Tanya called Edward and told him that she was going to be visiting her Aunt which I know is a lie considering that her only Aunt is dead, but it looked like Edward believed the bitch so I left it alone and looked up when Emmett came into the room, he told me that he was going to talk to Charlie to see if he would know anything at all, I told him that I was going to stay here.
