Chapter one

BPOV

Three years only three years and my life is nowhere where I imagined, Edward left breaking me as he did. I was a shadow of my self for months (hell who am I kidding I still am). I refuse to acknowledge my birthdays anymore why should I when everything bad that has ever happened to me was because of that horrible day. After Edward left I couldn't eat, talk, or even move for months, Charlie wanted to send me to Renee but I flat out refused to go saying that I would make an effort (total lie). Besides Renee didn't want to deal with me either, way to be there for me mom.

I made and effort whenever Charlie was around but I think that he knew I was just going through the motions, it was all I was able to do. Charlie was always gone at work I think that he had rather been at work then be around my depressed mood. Thanks to my Birthday and my refusal to make an effort, Charlie was working late one Friday night when he was hit head on by a drunk driver. (So much for a little warning there Alice!)

After burying Charlie I couldn't take Forks anymore I had to get away from all the ghost that haunted me constantly, Charlie left me everything, along with a very big life insurance policy. What I didn't know was that he had inherited a horse ranch out side of Houston from his mother after she passed. So I loaded everything that I could into my new baby my black mustang convertible, and I moved to Houston to start over away from those ghosts.

After arriving in Houston I immediately feel in the Ranch it hadn't been lived in for years and needed a little tlc but I had nothing but time to make it to the perfection I saw in my mind. I bought me two horses a few months later Major, and Mason were my two men that were always there for me. So beautiful both were a rich chocolate brown but Major had white on his two front feet. They are my babies and I spoil them, whenever I need to just get away, I just saddle on up and go for a ride on the ranch. They aways seem to bring me to the same spot at the creek at the far end of my property, I always just sit and write. Mostly songs, it helps me get the thoughts and pain out.

Just a few months ago I as I was leaving the University in Houston Jane and her boyfriend Felix stopped me asking me if I would help them out with a problem they had.

Felix had a band and the lead singer quit because of her boyfriend or something like that and they wanted to know I would step in and help them out. They knew that I wrote and played guitar and they really were in a bind they had a gig that weekend. So here I am after three months getting ready for another gig but tonight I am more nervous because for the very first time ever I was going to be playing my very own songs that I have written. Felix mad me sit and play all of them for him and the band one night and they have been helping me get them ready.

I finally make it to the club where we are performing tonight, walking through the club to the stage I am greeted by Jane.

"Oh Bella I have been waiting for you to get here I have your outfit backstage and I will fix up you makeup for you. You look like you are ready to heave quit worrying you are going to knock them dead tonight. Its like any other night ok breathe." She said as she pulled me to the room behind the stage into a small room. I took one look at the outfit that she had picked out for me and was happy to say that this chick knows what I like.

"Jane I love how you know what I like to wear, and are these new boots?" I asked as I picked up the black cowboy boots.

"Yeah don't get mad or anything but your boots have seen better days. Also they go perfect with your outfit. Now come on get dressed and I will do your makeup for you."

After dressing and getting my makeup finished I looked in the mirror and was shock at how Jane could make me look so good in just the simple cloths she had picked out.

Jeans with the black boots, a black tank top, topped off with my black cowboy hat. I only wore it when I was a gig but loved how she could make it go perfect with my outfit and my smokey eyes that she said looked perfect.

"Alright you sexy chick lets get out there with the boys and bring the house down." Jane said as she took me to where the rest of the band was waiting behind stage. She and Felix were my back up singers and honestly if it weren't for them I wouldn't even have enough courage to do this. There really isn't anything better than when you are wrapped up in a song and realize that you can make a crowd go wild.

"Alright B lets go." Felix said as he headed on stage, I took a big breath as I walked on stage letting my nerves fall as I walked to the microphone and my guitar.

"Ok Houston you ready to get this party started?" I asked, when I received cheers and whistles I turned to Demetri and gave him the cue to get the first song started.

I won't do what you told me

I won't do what you said (no)

I'm not gonna stop feeling

I'm not gonna forget it

I don't want to start over

I don't want to pretend it

You are not my lover

Guess your only my friend

Cause when you took my heart

You took it all

When you gave it back

It fell apart

So..

I won't do what you told me

I won't do what you said (no)

I'm not gonna stop feeling

I'm not gonna forget it

Don't want to pretend it

Guess your only my friend

My friend, I won't

Well maybe your not right for me

Or maybe its just hard to see

I get lost in your beauty

And I just stop questioning

So..

I won't do what you told me

I won't do what you said (no)

I'm not gonna stop feeling

I'm not gonna forget it

Don't want to pretend it

Guess your only my friend

My friend, I won't

You say its easier to burn than to build

You say that its easier to hurt than to heal

But I say you lose when you give up on what you love

And I've lived my life without you long enough

So..

I won't do what you told me

I won't do what you said (no)

I'm not gonna stop feeling

I'm not gonna forget it

Don't want to pretend it

Guess your only my friend

My friend, I won't

I took a breath and ended the song waiting to see the reaction of the crowd. Before I could think the place had erupted into a thunderous applause. As I looked across the crowd I felt that electric charge that I hadn't felt in three years. Could it be, could he really be here in this club? No Bella you are losing it, come you have a show to finish, but as I turn to signal Demitri I swear that I saw two sets of golden eyes staring at me.

A/N: ok so tell me what you think.
