“Hey Bella.”
“Hey Alice, Sorry I'm late. Got tied up with a phone call.”
“No Worries. This is my brother Emmett, he's a cop, This is his beautiful wife Rosalie, She built my building. You have already met My Jasper, He owns and bartends the towns hottest bar “Smooth”. This other butt wipe is my other brother Edward. He is a family doc here in town.”
I threw up my hand and waved at everyone “Nice to meet all of you”
“Guys this is Bella Swan.”
“The Bella Swan of SWAN?”
“Yes Douche. Don't mind him Bella, I think our mom dropped him one too many times.”
“It's cool. It will be nice to know a cop in this town. In case things get crazy.”
Dinner was an easy flow of conversation between us all. By the time I left I felt like I had known them all forever. What I hadn't counted on was enjoying myself so much. So this is what it felt like. Friends will finally be nice.
Alice told me my room would be ready by Sunday, It was Thursday. I couldn't wait. I couldn't play my guitar in my hotel room. Found that out the hard way. Damn hotel guest. Throwing my name around didnt impress the manager either. I walked into the room and fell across the bed kicking my boots off in the process. I flipped on the tv and fell asleep again praying that the nightmares would stay away another night.
“Marlyn what did you think of that band? Weren't they awesome?”
“Oh my God, Bells the drummer was fucking HOTT. I would give my right arm to hang with them.”
“You can hang with us ladies instead.”
“Sorry but we dont know you pricks so just go away ok?”
No, but you will know us real well by the time we are done.”
“Fuck Ben, these girls are so fine. Here ladies try one of Ben's original Cocktail the lady killer.”
“Marlyn I think we should leave.”
“You two bitches arent going anywhere.” Slap
I jumped up screaming in the bed. I got up and stumbled to the bathroom to wash my face, shaking the whole way. I guess I couldnt get lucky enough to keep the dreams away too long. I went to the liquor cabinet and grabbed the bottle of Vodka that was in the front and drank straight from the bottle. I drank til I passed out cold in a dreamless slumber.
----------------------Sunday-----------------------------------
“Hey Alice, whats up?”
“Well numbnuts its Sunday and you do remember whats happening on Sunday dont you or have you no brain cells at all?”
“Well If you only knew. But yeah I remember.”
“Well fruitcake get your ass checked out and over here now.”
“Alright, see ya funky ass in a minute.”
“Meet me out front of the store ok?”
“Yeah, whatever.”
The massive hangover I was suffering from drinking none stop for the last 3 days didnt help my brain and body any. I gathered my things and made sure I didnt break anything. I settled my bill with the manager and shit $3000.00 on liquor was outrageous but I had no contacts here. And I was trying to stay clean. Just as I got in my car my cell rang again. Thinking it was Alice......
