Chapter 10

Together Forever

EPOV

It was summertime now, Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie just graduated, Bella and I were still going strong and were excited about our upcoming trip. We were going to see her mom in Jacksonville, 2 weeks and counting.

"Edward, want to go out with the guys tonight, or does Bella have you wrapped up so tight, that you can't leave her side?" Emmett laughed.

"Yeah, I can go, damn. Let me call Bells and tell her." I said.

"Nope, we're all going out tonight, without telling our women…" Jasper smiled.

"How much have you guys drank already? Alice and Rose will kill you!" I laughed.

"That's the point, dude! We haven't been out in so long without the girls, that it's needed at all costs. We love them, but sometimes we've gotta break free." Emmett said.

"Fine, fine, but if Bella gets pissed, you 2 are going to answer for it." I said.

"Nope, we're not taking the heat for you, you've got to man up on this one and let Bella know who wears the pants in the relationship." Jasper sighed.

"Oh and grab your fake ID, we're going to have a blast tonight. We're going to Seattle." Emmett laughed.

"Shit, Seattle. Bella is gonna freak!" I screamed.

"Shhh, Alice is upstairs dumbass!" Jasper whispered.

Emmett and I started laughing. "Look who's whipped now!" I laughed.

"Go pack your shit and let's go, before they start asking questions." Jasper sighed.

I ran upstairs and packed a few things and we jumped in Emmett's Jeep and took off.

BPOV

Uuuggghhh!!! What a horrible morning. I woke up with a splitting headache and was not looking forward to a day of shopping with Alice, but I'd told her I'd go, because I did need a few things for my Florida trip and then in another 6 weeks, Alice and I would be going to Fashion Week in Paris, I was so excited, but I wasn't going to let Alice know, just yet.

I got up and took a shower, looked in my closet and tried to find something acceptable to wear.

I finally settled on a pair of black leggings, a blue baby doll top and my personal touch, black Converse.

I threw my hair up in a ponytail, put on some mascara and lipgloss and waited for Alice.

5 minutes later, a horn beeped.

"Hey guys. What's up?" I said getting into the back.

"Ali why do you have your dad's car?" I asked.

"Oh! We've got a lot of shopping to do today and the bags most defiantly wouldn't fit into my car, oh and I forgot we're going to Seattle, I called Charlie and he said that's fine, we've got a hotel room and everything." Alice was excited.

"Why didn't you tell me, I could have packed a bag, damn it Alice!" I sighed.

"It was suppose to be a surprise, a day without the guys, now it'll be a night too, we're going to go dancing, just the girls, I'm so excited." Rosalie explained.

We sang and laughed the entire way there, we were almost there and I realized that I hadn't talked to Edward today, so I text him: 'Hey sweetie, I haven't talked to you today, I miss you and I love you!'

I sighed and waited, we'd reached the hotel and still nothing, maybe he was in the shower or jogging or something.

We checked into the hotel and then left to go shopping.

After about 4 hours or shopping, I told Alice I needed to eat.

We went to the food court and grabbed salads and pizza.

I looked at my phone to make sure it was working, I text Alice and she looked at me funny.

"I text Edward hours ago and nothing, I hope he's O.K." I said.

"I know, I've been trying to get Jasper and nothing, what about you Rose?" Alice asked impatiently.

Rose smiled and put her head down….

"What Rose, what do you know?" Alice frowned.

"Well, I came home and caught Emmett packing an overnight bag and I MADE him tell me what was going on. Of course, he tried to act all high and mighty, saying crazy shit about this is a man's weekend and we'll do what ever we damn well please." Rose giggled, then continued. " I gave him the look and he broke. HAHA! He said they were going here, to Seattle and having a 'guys' weekend and not telling us, to show us they wear the pants on the relationship. HAHA! They had to quilt Edward into it, he was going to call you several times, I guess, but they took his phone away." Rosalie finished.

"That's when I came up with the 'girls' weekend, we can play that game too… I think I know what clubs they'll hit tonight and we'll be there, but we've got to get some serious sexy outfits and we're going to hang back, making sure they don't see us, right away. If I know Emmett, he'll get them in the VIP area, so they'll be overlooking the dance floor and we're going to pick up some hotties and have fun tonight!" Rosalie said.

"Um, I don't know guys, I don't want to fight with Edward, things are going so good, I don't want to risk it." Bella sighed.

"This is exactly why I shouldn't have said anything! Damn it!" Rosalie said.

"Bells, look, everything is strong between you and Edward and he's the one who ran off here first, not the other way around." Alice smiled.

"O.K. fine, just nothing too trashy." I insisted, looking down at my promise ring and smiling.

We went to the mall and shopped for what seemed like hours, it had only been 2, kill mew now…

Alice was shoving things over the door to me and finally I said 'wait' and opened up the door.

"This is it!" I exclaimed and Alice and Rose gasped.

"OMG! It is perfect, Edward is going to die when he sees you in that!" Alice exclaimed.

It was blue, Edward's favorite color (pictures of all dress on profile).

We finished shopping and bought our shoes, got our hair, nails and makeup done.

We went back to the hotel to get ready and then went to the hotel restaurant for dinner.

After, we headed to the club, found a table in the back corner, ordered drinks and sat down for a few.

It was really weird being at a club without the guys.

The club was picking up and we saw the guys walk in Rosalie was good, they headed upstairs to the VIP section, they looked good. I wanted to run to Edward, but they kept giving me dirty looks.

Then, a group of cute guys came over and asked to sit with us. The girls said yes and made room for them.

I sighed and moved over as well, the one who sat next to me was quite nice looking, "Whatcha' drinking?" he asked. "White Zinfandel" I replied, blushing, he touched my cheek and said "Wow, you blush easily, I'd like to see more of that. What's your name? Mine is James, that's Dmitri, next to the blond and Felix, with the pixie."

"Bella, my name is Bella and the blond is Rosalie and the pixie is Alice." I smiled, blushing again and getting another touch on the cheek.

Next this I knew, we'd all been introduced and Rosalie ordered shots all around, I was going to kill her later, because she knows how I got after doing shots and it was never good. She gave me 'relax' look and so I did.

After our 5th shot, I was really loose and wanted to dance, I was giggling and Rosalie and Alice were all over their 'dates', I wasn't, but he was on me. I tried to relax.

We were getting ready to dance, when I saw the guys go to the dance floor, with girls.

"Hey, a couple more shots and then we'll go out, 'k! everyone and I shot my eyes to Rose and Alice and then the dance floor, they agreed.

Edward was with a redhead and she was pawing all over him, dressed in barely a scrap of material and his hands were on her ass and they were grinding away. Jasper was with a brunette, she was almost his height, she had straight hair and looked like a model, they were dancing slowly although the music was fast and looking into each others eyes. Lastly, there was Emmett and he was dancing with a girl, almost as striking as Rose, she had long blond hair and a knockout body, but huge boobs, totally fake. They were kissing and grinding, this night might backfire on all of us.

They finished the next 2 songs and went back up to the VIP section, we told the guys we were ready to go dance.

James grabbed my hand and kissed it and led me to the floor, a slow song was on. He was really tall, I had my head on his chest and his chin rested on my head, he was being a gentleman, he had his hands around my waste and mine were around his neck.

"You smell wonderful" James said whispering in my ear.

"Thank you." and of course I blushed. He looked down and rubbed my cheek again, already knowing I would be blushing. He then took my left and held it, looking at my ring. "I noticed you're taken, huh? Is this your batchlorette party?" he asked.

"Um no, it's just a promise ring." I smiled, what just a promise, what was I thinking!!!

We finished the slow dance and the others joined us, we were out there laughing and having a good time, none of us looking up at the VIP section or anything, like we didn't even know.

We danced several songs and excused ourselves to go to the restroom, saying they would meet us at the table.

We walked to the bathroom and glanced at the VIP section, the guys were alone, we walked inside and overheard the 3 bimbo's talking. "Oh my God, Jasper is so fucking sexy, I love his Texas accent, it's so hot and he's such a gentleman. I know, Edward is so sweet and every time I run my fingers through his hair, he makes a purring noise and his arms are so strong, they feel great on me. Emmett is fucking HOT! And his kissing, WOW! If his kisses are that good, I can imagine how good he does everything else." They kept giggling, Rosalie, acting like she was really drunk, bumped into the blond bitch while she was applying another ton of lipstick and it went straight across her face.

We all giggled, Rosalie acted innocent, "Oh, I'm so sorry, I've had a little too much to drink, can you forgive me?" She used her thick Texas accent.

"Yeah, I guess so, just don't let it happen again, I've got a hot man waiting for me, I think we're going to really get to know each other tonight." The blond said.

Rosalie smiled and we finished up.

The girls were gone and I about lost it.

"No, we're not doing this girls, we've got 3 hot ass guys waiting for us and if our want to be dicks, then let them, we'll make them regret it! Now, let's go back out there and have some fun. Got it Bella, no pouting, James is fucking hot and so into you." Alice smiled.

I gave a false one and we walked back to the table, heads held high.

The guys had drinks for us waiting and we sat and talked for a while.

Slow songs came on again and we all went to the dance floor this time, it was a sad slow song and my mind wandered to Edward, it was "The Wind Blows" by All American Rejects.

As the night went on, the music got better and we danced a lot. James was a great dancer and respectful, not touching below the waist and always brushing my cheek when I blushed.

Our guys must have been oblivious, because they didn't notice us at all.

It was almost closing time and we decided to go to Denny's for breakfast, the guys decided to join us, we took separate cabs so we could chat amongst ourselves.

Alice and Rosalie noticed my mood change, once the guys were away.

"What's wrong sweetie?" they both asked.

"I can't believe I watched them making out upstairs, his hand was halfway up her fucking skirt! Why?" I started sobbing.

"Shh, It's O.K., everything will work out." Rosalie promised.

We arrived at Denny's and the guys walked over to our cab, James opened up my door and noticed I'd been crying. "What happened?" he asked, pulling me to the side.

"Oh, I don't handle shots very well, I get really emotional, sorry" I said.

We walked in and were seated in a round booth, Alice and Rosalie both giggling with the other guys and I was just sitting there with James staring at me.

"What?" I asked.

"You're beautiful, your hair is a wonderful color and you have the most beautiful skin, not to mention soft." he said as he stroked the blush on my cheeks.

We ate and talked, Alice and Rosalie exchanged numbers with Dmitri and Felix, James kissed me on the cheek and said he'd see me around, he was such a gentlemen, I smiled and touched where he had kissed my cheek, they paid for our meals and we (the girls) sat and talked for a little while.

I excused myself to go to the bathroom.

I walked towards the back and came face to face with the guys and bimbos, Edward in full make out mode!

Emmett had the look of horror on his face and Jasper looked like death, they cleared there throats, but he ignored them, I took off my ring and threw it at his head "shit guys what the fuck?"

"Hi Edward!" I spat.

His face turned green.

"Bells, hey, it's not what you think." Edward spoke.

"Oh, were you giving her mouth to mouth?" I spat again.

"Hey, you're the girl from the club, your bitch friend ran into me." the blond bimbo said.

I turned around and ran back to the table.

"Let's go, I just ran into the guys and Edward was making out with her, I threw my ring at him and the blond bimbo recognized me from the club!" I was sobbing.

We walked outside and hailed a cab, I cried the entire way back to the hotel.

"It'll be fine, there are other fish in the sea, it's better now than later, when you're engaged." Alice smiled, wiping my tears.

"I can't believe my brothers, I can't believe them, they didn't do anything!" I cried.

All of a sudden, all 3 of our phones rang, we all looked at them and threw them down, knowing what they wanted.

Rose picked up her phone and dialed.

"Hey, Dmitri, I hope I didn't wake you. We were wondering if you guys wanted to go to lunch with us tomorrow before we head home."

"O.K., there's a little Bistro around the corner from the Hilton, meet us there at one." Rosalie replied.

"O.K., they're going to meet us at one, let's get some sleep and have lunch with the hunks, before we go back to face the assholes." Rosalie replied.

My phone rang all night long and suddenly a buzz, a message, I flipped it open. B 3 'I'm so sorry baby, I didn't mean for this to happen, your brother forced me to go out with them and we got really drunk and I didn't really know what to do, she was all over me and they were all over the other girls, I just followed their lead, I'm so sorry." E 3

I text back. 'screw you and your excuses, were are over, I guess you'll never change, I don't want to see you anymore! Guess it's better now, when we were just promised to each other and not actually engaged or better yet married! Fuck off Edward!"

I fell asleep, no more tears shed!

I was awoke by Alice bouncing on my bed.

"Come on sleepy head, it's 11:30, time to play Bella Barbie, especially with those bloodshot eyes and bags." Alice smiled.

I showed her the text from her brother and the response I sent back.

"So, are you sure it's over?" She asked.

"Yeah, this is like the 3rd time he's cheated, I can't go through it again, I'm going to give James my number today." I smiled.

I dressed in a red romper, black heels and jewelry, Alice gave me smoky eyes and curled my hair so it fell all down my back and over my shoulders.

Rosalie wore a black strapless romper with stilettos, smoky eyes as well and her hair was always pageant perfect.

Alice wore a pair of black silk shorts, a pink top and black heels, soft makeup, in pink hues, hair spiky.

We walked out of the hotel and down to the bistro.

We walked inside and were a little early, the guys weren't there yet.

We asked for a table outside, since it was so nice.

We saw the guys walking up and the hopped the little gate and sat down, James' eyes popped out of his head and he said "WOW! I thought you looked hot last night, today is even better." he smiled and of course I blushed, earning a stroke of the cheek. I looked up and the others were in there own private conversations.

"Let me see your phone." I said to James, he looked at me curiously, but handed it to me.

I snapped a picture of myself and put my number in, he looked like he'd just won the Presidency or something, I have never seen such a beautiful smile.

He took my hand "Hey, where is your ring?" he asked.

"Oh, long story, you wanna hear it?" I asked.

He shook his head yes.

"Well, after you guys left, I went to the bathroom, to wash syrup of my fingers and he was in a back booth, playing tongue hockey with some bimbo. I yelled at him and threw the ring at him and told him we were over." I sighed and put my head down.

"Hey, it's O.K. I'm here if you wanna talk. Can I have your phone for a second." James asked.

James took my phone and snapped a picture of himself and put in his number.

We ate lunch and chatted lightly.

"So where do you live?" Asked James.

"Forks, you?" I asked.

"Oh! Wow! I live in Port Angeles!" James said.

"I'm actually in the Police Academy with these 2 bozo's" James said.

"Wow! What a small world! My dad is Chief of Police in Forks and a lot of recruits come to Forks from Port Angeles,

due to our small size, we don't have an acedemy." I stated.

"Hmmm, I might have to have to put in a good word for me." He smiled.

We finished lunch and said our goodbye's and he promised to call me soon.

I smiled and gave him a quick peck on the cheek.

We got in our car and headed home.
