*I DON'T OWN ANYTHING NOT THE CHARACTERS OR THE SONG I JUST HAVE A SICK LOVE FOR THEM *
Black Velvet
Light shined in my eyes, and I felt amazing, it might just be the booze, but I let ignorance be my bliss as I step on the small stage. I was welcomed drunken cheers and laughs, I smile at the small crowd scattered in the round tables close to the stage. The spotlight is set on me and it blinds me, but I welcome the distraction. The slurry music starts, the beat booms from the speaker, and I can't help it but to sway my hips to the sinful sound. I grasp the microphone, not once staring at the scrolling letters; I start to sing …
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
My voice gets stronger as the song continues; I let my voice drop as the chorus hits trying to give the lyrics the sensual tone they deserve. I get lost in the words, my body moving on its own accord. I tip my cowboy hat winking at the crowd as my lips make love to the song. My inner self snorts, but I can't be faced the music resounds through every nerve in my body. I realize how lonely I really am, but I shake the feeling off, and let my mind drift to the beautiful song. How music can cure the soul, and mend or even rip open old wounds is humbling.
Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could you do?
I whisper the words and the guitar solo takes place for a minute, I remember Edward and every word he ever spoke to me…was it all that I wanted to hear? Or did he mean any of it? I shake my head, feeling my skin turn into goose flesh. God I love this song… I launch into the last chorus with all my might, I forget the painful memories and soon I'm adrift in the feeling of the song I've never had this much fun.
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knee
Black velvet if you please
If you please, if you please, if you please...
I finish the last words in almost a whisper, I bite my lip my face and chest flushed, I tipped my hat at the crowd, and loud cheers, and wolf whistles broke out all over the room making my cheeks flush brighter. I smiled, and swiftly walked of the stage proud of myself. I accidentally bump into a sculpted chest, Damn it's like stone! I look up mumbling a soft apology, until my face meets the beautiful features I thought I would never see again. Jasper Cullen-Hale his golden eyes flashing…looking sinful in his wrangler jean and white t-shirt, I shook my head as lust flood my senses, I shake myself inwardly, a smile quirk on his lips. I freeze in my tracks, fight or flight Bella my mind said rather somberly. I'm tired of running so I decided...what do I have to lose? ...Nothing.
"Hey Jasper, you sure clean up nicely " I smile, and shoot him a wink walking towards my table, but before I'm out of ear shoot I hear him.
"Darlin' you're looking mighty fine as well" his southern drawl dripped over the words like molten honey. I shake my head and sit beside a group of girls from my dorm, they shower me with complements, I ignore them and I can't help but to think, I fell for the wrong Cullen…
To be Continued?...
Just wrote this little small Song Fic because I've always had a soft spot for them, and I love this song. Plus I was having a little of a mind block on my other story, but no need to worry I'll update tomorrow from work 3 Hope you Enjoyed it. (Black Velvet -By Alannah Myles)
Should I keep going with this idea?
PS. I didn't put all the Lyrics up as you can see, but I like it better this way :)
