Hey guys! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Here's a one-shot, possibly more, you decide, that I came up with after hearing Taylor Swift's Haunted. Fits perfectly!
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight, SM does. I don't own Haunted, Taylor Swift does. dang it.
BPOV
He's coming back… probably not.
He has to… no he doesn't.
I can't live without him… maybe I can, and I'm too stubborn to realize it.
He knows that… no he doesn't. Not anymore.
But he left… Yeah, so?
I don't know how to deal with this pain… again, maybe I can.
I don't think I can do this anymore… No…don't think like that. Think of Charlie, Jacob, Rene. And you promised him nothing stupid or reckless. He may not love you anymore, but you can't break your promise to him. His last request. You can't do it, I mentally scolded myself. I knew I could never do that, promise to him or not.
I just don't know how to deal with this.
Then I remembered something my mom told me long ago, "Whenever you feel the need to rant, mourn, or just talk…write it down. Let it out."
I would do that. Maybe even make it a song, yeah. I'll write a song for him, and maybe, just maybe he'll hear it. I grabbed a pen and paper, and I began pouring my heart out in ink.
You and I walk a fragile line; I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break,
It's getting dark and it's all to quiet and I can't trust anything now,
And it's comin' over you like it's all a big mistake
Oh, oh, holding my breath
Won't lose you again,
Something's made you eyes go cold
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now
I'm haunted
Stood there and watched you walk away, from everything we had
But I still mean every word I say, to you
He will try to take away my pain
And he just might make me smile
But the whole time I'm wishing he was you, instead
Oh, oh holding my breath
Won't see you again,
Something keeps me holding on to nothing
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now
I'm haunted
I know, I know
I just know
You're not gone, You can't be gone
No!
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong,
Won't finish what you started
Come on, come on
Don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
I can't go back
I'm haunted
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Never ever thought I'd see it break
Never thought I'd see it
There, done. I started to write down string and guitar chords as accompaniment, with a bit of drum in the beginning. When I perfected everything and sang it through a few times, I heard Charlie pull up in the cruiser. I ran downstairs and flung open the door, smiling and excited to show him what I'd accomplished.
As soon as Charlie saw me, he froze.
"Bells?" He asked, wary
"Yeah?" I asked, suddenly confused.
Then realization dawned in my mind. This was the first time in months Charlie, or anyone for that matter, had seen me smile. That would surprise me too, if my daughter had been a zombie for months and then is suddenly running towards you full speed, smiling like a kid on Christmas morning.
"What's got you so happy?"
"Well, you remember how mom had her saying about how when you want to rant, mourn, or just talk you write it down?"
"Mhmm." He mumbled
"Well…I pulled all my feelings from the past few months and put them together…in a song." I said smiling brightly
"That's great kiddo! Wanna give me a sample there?"
"Sure, alright..here we go.
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and it's all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake
Oh, oh holding my breath
Won't lose you again
Something's made you eyes go cold." I finished, with a tear in my eye, and my throat thick.
"That was great Bella. Really. And I'm sorry, honey. I know how it feels." Charlie said, hugging me tightly. Many people had said that to me, but I only believed it when my dad said it. Because he did know how it felt, having your heart walk away from you forever.
"Bella, you should send that to a recording studio, or at least the local radio station. That's amazing."
"Thanks, Dad." I smiled. Charlie smiled back and we went into the house with the same thought.
This is going to be the start of a new beginning…hopefully.
