chapter two

Previously on My Little Piece of Joy:

I woke up in my bed with a pounding headache and an arm around my waist I snuggled closer to the body figuring that James came in later last night.

Until I opened my eyes to see…………………… a russet colored arm 'Shit!'

I…FUCK! How could I have let this happen?! I really needed to get the fuck out of here before someone came home, before he woke up. I was seriously starting to freak out right now, I wasn't stupid enough to just pull his arm off of me, he would wake up and that was something I did not want to happen while I was in his bed naked.

I slowly started to pull his arm off of me and when I got almost to the point where I could slip out, what does he do? He fucking pulls me back to him and holds me tighter! I tried to move his arm again but it wouldn't budge, so I didn't have any choice but to lay there 'til his grip on me loosened. After a while, it started to loosen and so I slowly slipped from under it.

I grabbed all of my underwear and bra and slipped them on. I grabbed my dress and shoes but when I looked at the dress and it was completely ruined! What the fuck? What happened to it?! The part where the zipper was, was torn! It looked like he tore the zipper out completely! (picture of the whole outfit before the elevator scene on profile.)

I started to tip toe out of the room when the floor creaked, I heard him move and I prayed that he wasn't waking up. I looked over my shoulder and he had just turned over on his back facing the door so I made it to the door as fast and as quietly as I could, I closed the door softly and went to the bathroom and turned on the shower. I waited for it to steam up then hopped in with every intention to try and relax and stop thinking about last night. Well I was relaxed but I couldn't get it out of my head, so I washed up, got out and went into my room and looked at the clock, it was 8:00 which was still early so I decided that I would try and go back to sleep.

I got a few hours of sleep before I was woken up by someone shaking me and talking in my ear. I opened my eyes and looked to where the talking was coming from and right in my face was Alice!

"Ahhhh!" I jumped back hitting my head on the head board "Shit Alice! What are you doing in here?!" I asked her.

"Oh sorry Bella! I didn't mean to scare you but you need to get up now, we leave in a little while." she said after she stopped laughing. I noticed she still had on her clothes from last night. I looked her up and down and eyed her pointedly. She blushed and there was a smile playing on her lips, I just raised one eyebrow.

"What!? I didn't have clothes at Rose's house!" was her explanation but I didn't question it because we both knew that wasn't the truth and why I was looking at her like that. I have to admit though she still didn't look like she had just got out of bed, it was strange that her and Rose could just get up and look like super models. She had a spaghetti strapped black and cream colored dress on with black heels and a necklace. (Rose and Alice outfit on profile.)

"Alright Alice! Well, where is Rose?" I asked because usually she would be in here too.

"She's saying bye to Emm" she answered. "Now get up and get dressed we leave in an hour!" And with that she left. I went to my closet and started looking through the clothes. After what I knew happened last night I didn't even feel like going out, but I knew that if anyone could take my mind off of things for a while it was Alice and Rose. I picked out my outfit, a pair of skinny jeans a pink and white checkered tube top, and a pair of pink mary janes with pink accessories. After I got dressed I went to the bathroom to do my make up and hair I put my hair into a high ponytail and went with just some eye liner, mascara, and some lip gloss.

I came out of room at the same time as Rose and Alice. Rose had on a red tank, dark blue skinny jeans, red heels and red accessories. Alice had on a white halter with skinny jeans, a pair of leopard heels and leopard accessories (on profile.).

"Hey Bella, you look great." Rose complimented

"Thanks Rose so do you, where's my brother?" I asked smirking. Her cheeks turned a light pink.

"Sleeping." she giggled. "Where's James at?" That put a frown on my face.

"I don't know I haven't seen him since yesterday morning." my frown deepened. Rose looked at Alice for like a second then looked back at me 'what the hell is going on?'.

"What?" I asked looking between the both of them.

Before either one of them could answer Jake came out of his room. I instantly started to panic. What if he says something in front of them? How will he react to seeing me now after what we did?! But what he did surprised me.

"Hey Bells, Ali, Rose." And that was it! He didn't even say anything about last night so what did that mean? I really needed to be out of this house, to do something to take my mind off of all of this.

"Lets head out guys we have a very long day ahead of us." said Alice. So we all said bye to Jake and headed to the elevators. I was so tense by the time we got in there and I was sure Rose and Alice noticed it but they didn't comment on it. Until we got into the car, Alice was she first to speak.

"So…..What was that all about hmm?" she looked at me through the rear view mirror.

"I'll tell you guys later let's just do what we came to do. What is it that we came to do exactly?" I looked at them skeptically.

"Well Bells, we were going to go look at dresses and things" she said.

"We have plenty of dresses Ali so why are we going to get more?" I was confused. She grinned at Rose and Rose grinned back. I guess I wasn't getting it?

"No Bella we are going dress shopping…" She put emphasis on the word dress. I had to think really hard about it but then I got it.

"What…seriously? I thought that we weren't going to go for another month!?" I was getting excited now, even though I am not the biggest fan of shopping. But who wouldn't be when you're going shopping for your wedding dress.

"Well Bella, we wanted to surprise you with an early appointment. So are you up for it?" Rose asked. I guess I took too long to answer because she looked worriedly at Alice.

"Yeah I'm game! And while we're at it we can pick out your dresses as well!" I was actually excited about this besides the fact that this was a total distraction. For the rest of the drive there I let my mind wander back to last night. How was I going to broach the subject with them? Should I talk to Jazz first? I was giving myself a headache so I decided that that was enough thinking for now and that I would just have fun with my girls.

We had lots of fun I found my dress and theirs too. My dress was white with lace throughout and a see through lace back, tight 'til about my knees and had cropped sleeves. Their dresses were olive green silk, jeweled flower gowns. It was a lot to get done in one day but we did it in half. I just fell in love with the dress when I saw it and it was like the fifth one that I had tried on and refused to try on any more because I knew that it was the dress.(on profile)

Throughout the day they continued to ask me what was wrong, I guess they noticed how off I was but I told them that I would talk to them about it later and they'd accepted it for the moment. I felt that Jazz would help me better if I told him first; he knew things that Ali and Rose didn't even know so he would be more help. We continued on with our day, went into countless stores. Clothes stores, lingerie, even furniture after Rose told us that Emm had asked her to move in with him and she said yes. She wanted to change it up a bit; you know add a woman's touch to his otherwise very manly house.

After we were done we headed back home. When we got there all the guys were there, including James (whom I wasn't going to speak to now, I was still pissed about last night) and some girl that I had seen around the apartment building. I assumed she was here with Jake and my assumptions were proven correct when he came in and sat next to her and put his arm around her I felt a pang in my chest to know that he could go on with his day normally while I couldn't, knowing what had happened between us. I didn't know how I was supposed to feel but it hurt like hell to know that it didn't affect him in any way.

Dammit Jacob! He looked up at me like I had called his name out loud I couldn't look at him so I decided to just go in my room and put my stuff away then maybe take a walk to calm myself down some. I'm positive everybody realized that I hadn't uttered a word to James even though he had been looking at me since I walked in but I could care less at that moment. I walked into my room put all my stuff away and grabbed my coat and went back into the other room. I figured I might as well tell Jazz now.

"Hey Jazz can I talk to you? Take a walk maybe?" I pleaded with my eyes letting him know that it was really important. He got the hint and accepted my invitation for a walk. He got up to grab his coat and say bye to Alice, she was looking at me with a knowing look. I looked at Rose and she had the same look on her face, they knew I was keeping something from them but didn't know what but they knew that if they pushed I just wouldn't tell them. I waved bye to everyone and as we were getting ready to head to the door James must have had enough of my ignoring him because he got up and pulled me into the kitchen.

"What the hell is your problem?!" he spoke through gritted teeth. I just smirked and replied with.

"Doesn't feel good does it?" and walked out of the room and out the door Jazz following close behind.

We walked for some time in silence me trying to figure out how to say it, him waiting for me to speak. I finally got up the nerve to start talking.

"Something happened and I'm not sure what do."

"What happened? Was it between you and James, or you and Jake?" Simple enough question but I couldn't answer it. It took me some time but I finally got it out.

"Jake." I whispered he stopped then a turned to me and understanding was clear on his face, he wordlessly pulled me into a hug knowing it was what I needed at that moment. I let some tears slip but knew that if I continued to cry it would be evident that I had been crying when we got back home. After a while I pulled away and gave him a small smile. He smiled back nodding, acknowledging my silent thank you.

"So I'm guessing that this happened last night?" he asked while we walked towards the park a few blocks away from the apartment. I nodded "What happened, can you tell me?"

I nodded again and told him from when Jake came in with the girl to when I woke up this morning and about how it didn't seem to be affecting Jake at all and how that felt. He sat and listened with nods and a few questions but mostly listened. And that is why it's so great to have a best friend who majored in Psychology. We sat quite for a while giving him time to process all of what I had just told him.

"Well, if you don't know exactly what happened and aren't sure what happened after the elevator…and he was way more drunk than you are, are you sure he even remembers what happened?" he asked breaking the silence.

"I…ummm…Wow! No I don't know, maybe that's why he's acting so normal." I was, to say the least, relieved to know that maybe he didn't remember and that it wasn't him just not caring.

"Are you going to tell Rose and Alice?" he asked after a while looking at the sun just about to set.

"Yeah, but I knew that I should tell you first, you know more about it than they do so you would be of more help. You're more level headed than those two." I grinned at him and he grinned back knowing it was true. "Because if I had told them what I thought was happening they would have created a really big mess that none of us would have been able to clean up when it was over." He nodded his head agreeing with me.

"Let's head back?" He asked after a few minutes of silence. I just nodded and got up and gave him a hug, silently conveying my thanks. We started walking back to the apartment. When we got there everyone was still in the living room. They all looked up as we stepped into the room.

I walked over to Rose and Alice and nodded to my room which was the furthest from the living room and they followed me. Everyone but Jazz gave me confusing looks as we walked down the hall I faintly heard a. "What was that all about?" come from Emm and Jazz reply with a "Nothing".

When we got into my room I closed and locked the door and turned on the TV just to muffle our voices a bit.

"So Bella what is it that you wanted to talk about?" Alice asked beating Rose to it just as she was opening her mouth to speak.

"Well, Rose you know how you dropped me off last night………"
