Chapter 13
BPOV
Not too long after the girls left, I quickly changed out of my pajamas, and threw on my most comfortable clothes, my favorite rolling stone shirt, my old jeans and ratty converse. I threw my hair into a messy bun, and went back downstairs and laid back on the couch. Nessie quickly scurried onto my lap, as I settled down. I desperately wanted to relax, my heart was in shambles by the only guy I liked. I didn't want to dwell on the fact that he didn't feel the same way for me as I him. I was feeling restless, I decided to close my eyes for a while. Right when I was leaning into peaceful slumber, there was a hard knock at door. I sighed before getting up to open the door. There stood Rose, as she took in my features, my messy hair and puffy eyes. I was willing myself not to cry but stray traitor tears started to fall. Rose quickly embraced me in a comforting hug..
" Its okay Bells, it's all right." she cooed.
"I know it just hurts.." I huffed.
"I know…come on Alice's in the car with the engine running." Rose said.
"Okay, let me lock up. Do you mind grabbing Nessie?" I asked.
"Sure.. But you know pets aren't allowed in the mall right?" Rose questioned.
"Yeah I know, I'll just leave her in the back, with the window rolled down." I replied.
Rose quickly picked up Nessie, as I grabbed my bag, and locked the door. I turned around and swore I could see Alice bouncing she knew I hated shopping. I got in the back, as Rose sat in shotgun. Alice glanced at me in the mirror as she pulled out of the lot ,and it looked as if she was about to have a heart attack.
"Bella! What are you wearing?" Alice grimaced.
"Al.. it's called clothes, you of all people should know this.." I smirked.
"You know what I mean Bells…." Alice replied.
"I like my clothes Al…it's very comfortable." I huffed.
"Ever heard of comfortable but stylish? I know you're heartbroken, but you have to stop moping so much." Alice grinned.
"I know." I said.
"She's right Bells, were going to make you look hot! Forget Assward, he can have Tanya all he wants." Rose encouraged.
"Thanks guys!" I grinned , giving them a hug from behind.
"Aww you're welcome Bella. Now we have to hurry. I set us an appointment at the spa for 4, so we can all get facial, and mud baths, get our hair done, then get a bikini wax, and…..
"WAIT!" I said almost scaring Alice off the road.
"What did you just say?" I questioned" Uh.. Get a mud bath?" Alice said sheepish.
" No, after that." I said.
"Get our hair done.." Alice spoke once more.
"Al! You know what I mean." I grimaced.
"Fine a bikini wax…" Alice huffed.
"Thought so… and there's no way in hell I'm letting someone near my cookie." I sneered.
"Your cookie?" Rose laughed.
"Yeah…my cookie, I am the only person who's seen ,and been in the jar, and I don't want others looking at it." I grimaced again imagining the pain.
"Oh Bella.. Don't be such a drama queen. It doesn't hurt that bad…" Alice reassured me.
"Yeah easy for you, you did this before…." I sighed.
"Look Bella, I love you and all, but stop complaining! You're killing my mood." Alice said in a frank tone.
" Fine." I sighed, knowing there was no point in arguing with Alice. She always wins.
"Good girl." Rose patted my knee from the front seat, and I leant back in my seat, Nessie looking up at me with her big brown eyes, She was so lucky she was a dog, without a care in the world. I didn't realize we had stopped till Alice, and Rose steeped out in front of a large white building packed with cars.
I sighed, rolled down my window, to give Nessie air. I quickly closed the door and slowly trailed behind the two of them. If I thought Edward breaking my heart was painful, this experience was definitely going to top it…..

A couple of hours later….
I don't know how long I laid with my head, face down on my pillow, wishing my bed would swallow me whole. I was so fucking confused I didn't really know what to do anymore. I just told my family, and the girl I love, that I was in love with freaking Tanya Denali. Eww…. Even that's a new low for myself. I must have dozed off, because I woke up bouncing in my bed. I looked up to see Emmett's large form jumping on my bed till I heard a sickening crunch.
"What the fuck Em! You broke my bed!" I screamed.
"Damn hormonal much Eddie?" Emmett said sheepishly.
"You got that right, your big ass broke my bed!" I grimaced. I now lay lopsided on my bed, because Emmett managed to break the support's of my bed. I loved my bed, it was soft and comfortable, of course leave it to Emmett to mess it up.
"Sorry Edward, I thought your bed would be used to some action. How the hell am I supposed to know, your bed can't handle a little Emmett action? "Emmett grinned.
"You're so lucky I'm down, cause I would so kick your ass Emmett." I mumbled into my pillow.
"You know you can't handle all this man.." Emmett said gesturing to himself while flexing his muscles.
I could hear Jasper's laughter in the background. I looked up n\to see him standing in my doorway.
"Mind I ask why the hell, you 2 are in my room, when obviously I want to be alone." I sneered.
"Stop being, a pussy man.." Emmett said punching me in my arm, causing me to roll over to the un even side of my bed, causing me to hit the floor with a hard thud.
"Shit!" I groaned rubbing the back of my head.
My head was spinning, and all I could hear was Emmett's booming laughter.
"Boy..Eddie you are so entertaining today!" Jasper snorted.
"What the fuck! Did you just snort?" I asked.
"Maybe, now come on were supposed to meet the girls at the mall, were supposed to go, and catch a movie." Jasper said before walking out of my room.
"Yeah hurry up Edward we leave in 10, and you look like crap." Emmett grinned before strolling out of the room.
I looked in the mirror, and I did look like crap, my messy hair was even messier, and my stubble scratchy, it's amazing how a change of events could change a person so quickly. I sighed ,and decided to just change my shirt. I threw on my converse, and headed downstairs. Jasper and Emmett were already downstairs, waiting on me.
"It's about time Edward, Alice is going to have my ass if were late." Emmett mumbled.
"Yeah, blame it all on Alice, you just want to see Rose." Jasper smirked.
"Yeah so? But really Alice will have all 3 of our asses on her mantelpiece if we don't hurry. That little pixie can be menacing, when things don't go her way." Emmett smiled.
"Yeah whatever. Let's just go." I said grabbing my jacket, leaving Jasper to lock up.
We quickly piled into Emmett's jeep.
"I call shotgun." I called.
"Yeah right!" Jasper said as he got into the front passenger seat.
"What the hell? Why do I always have to sit in the back?" I questioned.
"Because were older. Now respect your elders, and hurry your ass up." Jasper groaned.
"Go to hell!" I huffed under my breath as Emmett pulled out of the lot.
"So where are we meeting the girls?" I asked.
"We are supposed to meet them at La Bella Italia café parking lot for 7, before walking over to the movies.
I couldn't wait to see Bella, again. I missed her so much despite it was only a couple of hours. I decided once more to try and tell her how I feel. I had made to many mistakes once before, and I didn't want that to happen again. As soon as we parked, I almost jumped out of my seat to get to Bella, nearly stumbling in the process.
"Got damn Edward, anxious much?" Emmett grinned.
"Shut up." I said.
I walked behind them, walking faster with each step to see her. I was stopped mid step almost crashing into Emmett, and Jasper's back.
"Why did you guys stop? I asked.
Emmett turned around with a frown.
"What is it Em?" I questioned.
"Uh I don't know how to say this." Emmett mumbled.
"Just say it." I said as Emmett gestured one of his muscle arms in the café's direction.
What I saw shocked me.
"It wasn't the fact, that it was Tanya, smacking lips with Tyler, the school's ass. It was Bella, and she was beautiful,. I looked closer to see the girls laughing and smiling. A tall russet colored man stood before them. His gaze intently on my Bella.
Did I just say my Bella?
Yeah I did and it sounded so right.
I could tell she was blushing, as the unknown guy slipped her a piece of paper in her direction, before kissing her hand. I could see her face beet red, as he strolled off, it looked like they waited until he was out of eye distance , which looked as if the girls were squealing. I couldn't believe it… some guy was hitting on Bella.
I don't know what the hell just happened, I felt hurt once more. It wasn't the fact that Tanya was cheating on me. I could have cared less, I was going to break up with her anyway. It was the fact, that I had waited too long and someone else managed to snag her. If I thought my day couldn't get any worse. I was terribly mistaken.

30 minutes earlier….
After, being primped ,and pulled we were actually through. My skin felt amazing, after 2 facials and a mud bath I felt heavenly. Then the worst of all was the bikini waxing. I swear ,that was one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. First the woman was really butchy looking, and it looked like she was eying me up. Then the process of hair removal, I was so, glad to have that over with. The girls told me I'll tender for a while, but that couldn't stop me from waddling out of the place. Women laughed, and patted my shoulders, aware of exactly I just went through. Next stop was the hair salon. I really like my hair, and hair color so I just settled on getting my ends cut. My hair now cascaded down my back, in flowing curls. My hair was now luscious and thick I could have been in a Tressemme commercial. Now the real torture began clothes shopping. I didn't even get the chance to see what I was wearing, Rose, and Alice just pulled me in various directions, piling loads of clothes in my face. After what felt like hours, my current wardrobe changed, and I had purchased at least 20 bags worth of clothing, and Rose and Alice had about 30.
"Why do we need so much clothing Al?" I asked, my arms felt like they were going to fall off. With all the bags it was hard for us to, fit in the car so we decided to just drop all the bags at my house. We couldn't even close the truck, so we had to pile bags in the front with us. Even my poor dog couldn't move around anymore. I was scared she would suffocate. We dropped everything off, including Nessie making sure, she had fresh water, and food before leaving back out. We were going to meet the guys over at La Bella Italia café, before walking over to Fed. Ave. for the movies.
We quickly got a table, an waited for our waiter. I had to admit I was still a little down, but I felt so much better. We quickly engaged in conversation, until our waiter arrived. I couldn't help but feel my mouth drop. A tall, russet skin boy stood before me, and he was breath taking his body could even give Edward a run for his money. He had jet black hair pulled to the back in a short ponytail, brown eyes, and a bright while smile. He obviously wasn't paying attention to Alice, or Rose, his gaze intently on mine, and I couldn't help but be mesmerized by his presence.
"Hi, I'm Jake, and I'll be your server, what would you like to have today?" he beamed at me.
"Uh…." I stuttered by face slowly heating up.
"She'll have the hazelnut frappacino with vanilla, I'll have the Anniversary Blend, with cinnamon, and she will have the Guatemala Cocoa with whip cream." Alice grinned.
"Okay, I'll be right back ." He smiled at me once more before, turning away.
"Omg Bella! That Jake fellow likes you!" Alice squealed.
"How could you be so sure." I asked.
"Bella take a look in the mirror, you're gorgeous, he didn't even pay attention to us. Didn't you even notice when we gave him our order, his gaze was still on you." Rose said.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah, Bella you must realize the effect you have on men." Alice grinned.
Jake quickly returned.
"So who had the Guatemala Cocoa with whip cream? " he asked.
"That would be, and I'm Rosalie." Rose said.
"Nice to meet you Rosalie. Now who had the Anniversary Blend, with cinnamon?" Jake asked once more.
"That would be me, and I'm Alice." Alice gestured to herself.
"Hi Alice." he quickly waved and turned in my direction.
"And this hazelnut frappacino with vanilla must be for this beautiful lady over here." He grinned, and I instantly blushed.
"Thank you, I'm Bella." I said.
"Well I was right, beautiful definitely suits you, even your name." He charmed.
I couldn't stop the grin that spread across my face.
"Thank you, you don't look too bad yourself." I grinned. Was I Bella Swan flirting, why I think I was.
"I know this might be a little forward of me, but I can't resist." He said timid.
"Yes." I spoke.
"Do you mind if I call you sometime?" Jake said looking at his shoes.
I was glad he wasn't the only one shy. I was scared to death what do I say? I looked over towards Alice, and Rose, They both had big grins on their faces. Alice mouthed to me "say something" and gave me a huge thumbs up.
Jake looked like he was about to walk away since I hadn't replied…
"Uh…I'm sorry maybe I was a little forward. I know you just met me, and. I'll just g…." He rambled.
"Yes, you can call me sometime." I replied.
"Really?" He said.
"Sure let me see your phone." He took out his cell phone, and I quickly dialed mine into his. He gestured for mine, but I realized I had left it in the car.
I was about to get up and get it, before he stopped me.
"No worries." Jake said before tearing a sheet off of his tablet, and scribbling his seven digit number across the page.
He slid it up to me, and sweetly kissed my hand.
I blushed, and he was about to walk away when Rose asked him how much we owed him.
"Don't worry, my best friend owns the place, he owes me a favor. So it's on the house." He grinned once more in my direction before going over to another customer.
I waited until he was out of eye distance, to squeal an Alice approved squeal.
"See I told you he likes you, he even got us free coffee!" Alice beamed.
"Yeah, Bells, he didn't even compliment us." Rose laughed.
" Omg! He said he wants to call me. A guy that I actually like wants to call me." I laughed.
"Yeah, it looks like someone is over Edward." Rose grinned.
"Sure does, speaking of Edward, isn't that him ,and the guys over there?" Alice asked.
"Yeah it does look like them, and oh my gosh is that Tanya, and Tyler?" Rose questioned.
It looked like they were having an argument, so we quickly gathered our things before, leaving. I quickly threw a wave toward Jake, who was attending another customer, he gave me his bright smile before writing down their order.
I followed behind Alice, and Rose to see what all the commotion was about. I instantly heard my name being called so I looked over Rose's shoulder to see a fuming Tanya, and scared Tyler. Tanya instantly pointed to me, and screamed it was my fault. What I had to do with anything, I honestly didn't know, but it was time to find out.
EPOV
Even though I was feeling crappy at the moment, I didn't really care. I thought, it was finally time I got the Tanya situation over with.
I cleared my throat, which instantly broke them apart.
"Oh my god…Hi Eddie it isn't what it looks like." She tried to purr ,but stuttered. She looked like a deer caught in headlights.
"Then what is it Tanya?" I questioned.
"This is nothing." She said gesturing between herself , and Tyler who stood there looking clueless.
"Yeah we are nothing, I can't do this anymore Tanya." I said in a frank tone.
"What do you mean?" Tanya said.
"First off were, not working ,and then you are cheating on me, and Edward Cullen doesn't get cheated on.
"You have some nerve Edward, I only did this, because I heard about you , and that Becca chick were doing things at the club after I left. Yeah Irina texted me, that she saw you and some brunette dancing on one another." Tanya sneered.
"First off, her name's Bella, not Becca. We are friends, and we weren't doing anything." I said in a stern tone.
"Oh…I'm so sorry Eddie ….forgive me." She tried to beg.
"No we, can't do this anymore." I replied.
"It's Bella isn't it." Tanya grimaced her face turning an unusual shade of green. I was afraid she was about to go all Exorcist on me ,that her head would start spinning ,and she would begin to throw up green slime. I instantly took one step back.
"No it not her." I tried to say even though she was the reason.
"It is Bella!" She grimed once more.
I guess the girl had decided to show up cause, once Tanya spoke Bella's name, she peered over Rose's shoulder. Tanya didn't let this go unnoticed, she quickly turned in Bella's direction and screamed "IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!"
"What did I do?" Bella questioned.
"You know what you did you little bitch!" Tanya screamed."No I don't and what the hell is your problem?" Bella spoke.
"You broke me, and Eddie up." Tanya said.
"Name's Edward." I put in.
"I did no such thing, and I would never steal someone's boyfriend…" Bella tried to say.
"Yes you did you little slut, everything was fine before you came around." Tanya screamed now red in the face, the other customers in the parking lot stared.
Bella looked on the brink of tears. Tanya looked like she was about to lunge towards Bella, but Alice quickly stepped in the way.
"I wouldn't even think about it Tanya, If you even try to insult my best friend, or hurt her. I will break your fake little plastic nose understood?" Alice spoke with so much venom in her voice.
"You wouldn't." Tanya sneered.
"Try me." Alice said leaning in towards Tanya's face.
It looked like Tanya was going to slap Alice until Rose stepped in.
"If you want to keep those fake nails of yours, I suggest you back the hell up." Rose glared.
Tanya instantly stepped back, because Rose had one hell of an right arm when she was angry.
"Just you wait Edward Cullen, I know you love me, you just don't know it yet. This isn't the last you've seen of me. And you three, I'll sleep with one eye open, just wait till my daddy finds out, he's on the school board, I'll get your asses kicked out." Tanya huffed before storming off.
"Save it for someone who cares." Emmett hollered.
Tanya flipped him off, and kept walking until Emmett boomed.
"Sorry I don't go that way, I like to stay within my species." Emmett grinned, and we all broke out into laughter.
Once we all calmed down, I apologized to Bella for Tanya's actions.
"Don't worry about it." Bella tried to push it off.
"Well we missed the last movie so , I guess we should all head home.
"No, I don't' want the night to end." Alice pouted.
"Yeah, I want to catch up some more, it sucks that we live so far away from one another," Rose added.
"Well about that.." Bella interrupted.
"Yeah Bella?" Jasper said.
"Well you know I live alone, and I have 3 extra rooms, so I thought maybe….never mind I ask.."
"Omg Yes!" Alice, and Rose squealed.
"Can someone fill us in? Were out in the open here." Emmett said.
"We can all move in with Bella!" Alice screamed.
"How is that going to work?" I asked.
"Bella has three extra rooms, so we can all live together." Rose added.
"How is that going to work?" I asked again.
"Edward you can be so obtuse sometimes, Jas, and I can share a room since, I'm usually always in his room anyway. Rose , and Em because, well you obviously know, and you can have the last room to yourself." Alice beamed.
"Are you sure about this?" I asked Bella.
"Well, yeah I've been alone for a while, and I have the space so…"
"Hell yeah! Moving in with Bells!" Emmett boomed.
Alice, and Rose grabbed her in a hug,
"So when can we move in?" Jasper asked.
"Well tomorrow's Sunday, and classes don't pick back up to Wednesday so how's Monday?" she asked.
"Good!" Rose beamed.
"But wait, how far can you put in your notice?" Bella asked once more.
"We can put in in right now, we have a 24 hour office hours at our place." Jasper said.
"Yeah we do to. Yay! This is so exciting," Alice said bouncing.
"Great, since we are going in opposite directions, Emmett can you drop me off? Bella asked.
"Sure things Bells." Emmett said.
We started off in different directions until Alice interrupted.
"Wait what about our clothes?" Alice asked.
"Well since you're moving in anyway, you can just leave them there." Bella added.
"Oh yeah! Silly me. I'll see you Monday." Alice waved, heading towards her Porsche.
I helped Bella in the Jeep, since she couldn't get in by herself. She buckled herself in before we pulled out of the parking lot.
"Are you sure your neighbors won't mind us? We can be a rowdy bunch." Emmett asked.
"No worries Em, my neighbors are rarely at home themselves, and the neighbor that is around is, a playboy, and has girls stepping in and out all night." "Bella said.
"Hey sounds like a party to me." Jasper grinned.
"Yeah , and Alice would gladly hand you your ass on a platter." I laughed.
"Yeah you're probably right.
"Here's your stop Bells." Emmett said.
"Thanks for the ride guys." Bella said ,kissing us all on our cheeks even me, which really surprised me. She closed the car door , and ran off .
We made sure she was inside safely before pulling off.
I couldn't help but rub the cheek she kissed. Her lips were soft, and I couldn't help but smell the scent of her hair freesias, and strawberries.
"Damn Eddie, if you rub any harder, your skin's going to fall off." Emmett boomed looking through the rear view mirror.
"Shut up Asshole…" I smirked.
"Look who the ass is, first you see the girl you like flirting with another guy, than your now ex' cheating on you with your arch enemy. I swear you deserve your own cable show." Jasper laughed."Whatever man, just hurry the hell up, I'm tired." I said.
I rested my head on my hands , and looked out of the window. It seems like now like I can ever have a good day. Two days it's been since I seen her, and she has managed to turn my world around a complete 360. Now I'm about to go and live with her. If I ever thought in a million years I'll be were I am, cheated on, heartbroken, and JEALOUS. I would have laughed in your face , and say I'm Edward Fucking Cullen. I would tell you now, I am Fucking screwed…
Indeed I am….
