(BELLA POV)
I looked up at the moon. Glistening and lighting up the town like a club, in all it's beauty. Yes, Edward welcomed me, and everyone else seemed to take a liking in my human self.
They were muscular, beautiful and talented in everything imaginable. All I did, was ballet, when I was little , I missed those mother- daughter days, and we went to a studio and always practiced, happily giggling , when I mastered my pirouettes , and even when I slipped from the practice bars...ugh..I shuddered at the memory of James, although I welcomed it. Only because Edward was there to save me from my world of darkness. My angel, my savior, my shining star. My clumsiness took over me and well, I guess that's just who I am.
Stars glistened in the moon, and as I laid down on my soft bed after yet another movie night, although we never watched the movie ,with the Cullens. Besides spending time with Edward, laughing and being together, loving the fact by just being in each others presence, I couldn't stand the challenges, the sports and the obstacles when it came to Cullen family time. I felt like a toy. A special toy to Edward, but having to be shared by all it's fans.
I was exhausted. For tomorrow, I would wake up and spend yet another day with my angel, and his family. Might as well get some beautiful sleep, and prepare for another eventful day. I wish I was something useful, to fit in more with the family.
I wish I was a dancer.
I closed my eyes and falled into a deep, adventuresome, sleep.
...I could feel the slick, smooth stage pulsating beneath my feet, as I felt a pair of arctic arms constrict around me
One, two, three, left, right, close in, swirl, flip! I screamed aloud in my head, as the steps came to me flowing as smoothly as Peanut Butter on bread.
I could feel the slick, smooth stage pulsating beneath my feet as I felt a pair of arctic arms constrict around me. Fuchsia, emerald, and electric blue lights flashed in a circle. It had felt like I had been teleported into an eighties party. Our feet bounced together in synchronization, like two ingredients molded into one. Suddenly, I felt weightless, as I flipped into a double flip over the other Edward's arms. The music sparked its last high-pitched beat, and I abruptly stopped, striking a pose against Edward…Edward? Why was Edward dancing with me? Well not why, but where?
" We love you Bella!" a group of boys bellowed in the crowd.
I heard three other voices, one of which was screaming like a mad woman on Halloween.
" That was absolutely brilliant the two of you!"
" Ahhhhhhhhhhh! All you guys need is some salsa to those chips! You guys were hot tonight!"This strange, unknown woman waved her arms in the air, flapping them up and down like a mad woman.
" Whoa guys, that was jazzy, the way you two moved in synchronization, it's like you were made for each other! Now that's what I'd like to see more often" Why did this man sound like such a hippie? Who were these strangers?
Puzzled, as I heard the crowd shouting my name. My name. I had a sudden itching in the back of my throat and immediately, I felt parched, like a glass of cool lemonade would do the trick.
That thought vanished as soon as I heard the velvety voice of my angel behind me as he lead me with his soft, marble hand back in some sort of room." We did it."
" Did what? Where am I? What are we doing?"
Suddenly, I felt afraid, like I was trapped in a country where I couldn't speak the language, eat the food, or read the signs. Even though I was with Edward, who just stared straight ahead, I didn't know where I was, what I was doing, and most importantly, why?
What was I being congratulated for? I leaned in, completely spell bounded by his scent. It was like honey, and roses mixed together…I leaned in, as he did to, and our foreheads touched, as I was inches away from…
"Holy -!" It was all gone, that sweet smell in the air, but somehow further away then I had imagined. My eyelids fluttered open, and I stood upright from my bed immediately, and the golden sheets around me twisted around my body like a cocoon. Yeah, right! That was one heck of a dream! I pressed my fingers to rub my temples, hoping to forget the hideous memories. It was working, and besides that, my mind was going loco for I was missing something, like the one last puzzle piece to complete the beautiful picture, the one thing my mind could never forget, what mattered mostly, in my blushing, clumsy, yet lovely human life . Edward.
Speaking of Edward, where was he? I heard voices whispering downstairs, too low for me to make out the words. Was that Edward? I swung my legs to the side, and tried to get up straight. I looked like a drunk, person who couldn't walk a straight five foot line and I stood up, letting out a big, song length, sleepy yawn…
Wednesday, September 13th, 5:30 A.M(ALICE POV)
Did I remember the forms? The tickets?To keep my mouth shut from him ?Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I cannot wait to take Bella to her surprise! Where's Bella? Oh yeah, wait humans sleep! Bella better get her lazy ass up , or we are not going to be let in!
I ran up to Edward's room which took half a second, yes new world record Alice! I hope I am not mistaken for that huge lump, cocoon like shape, as Bella. I ran at rocketship, full speed like whenever there is a sale at the mall and made a cannonball onto the huge bed.
5:33 A.M(BELLA POV)
I had been thrown into the wall, dust pooling into my mouth, and pieces of wood plucked in my hair. I shook it all off of my arms and legs, and stood back to admire the huge hole that I had somehow been shoved into. "What the -?"
I saw none other, than Alice, the pixie from my wildest nightmares, I didn't even have time to see her run swiftly by me and jump on the bed.
Thankful for Rosalie, who just walked in like any normal person, although she never seemed real because of her amazing features, and flawless beauty. I'm still wondering if she came from another planet.
Alice puffed in a large gust of breath, humph, like she needed it. They had huge grins on their faces, and I wanted to just slap it off.
Why were they acting like this? Did my hair look funny? Were my clothes on wrong?
And then I heard the words that I wished they had somehow forgot due to many, many, years of long term amnesia.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLA," they shouted and they embraced me in stone grip hugs, I felt like I had just been crushed to smithereens by a boa constrictor.
" M-my birth-d-day?" I finally managed to shove the word out with a amused expression, eyes staring straight ahead at the door length mirror. Wh-wh…wha…what?" It can't be, I dashed over to the calendar. September 13th, it said. Damn. Stupid, smart, good memory Vampires.
" Where's Edward?" I said, still half shocked , and confused. I didn't want presents, music, food, drinks, or a life. I just wanted Edward.
" Oh, he had to go hunting with Carlisle and Jasper, he will be back soon, I promise! It was an emergency and he has been spending so much time with you, and he just needed some hunting time alone to himself. He stayed up with you all night, singing Happy Birthday, so don't think he hasn't forgotten either" Alice spoke loudly, and she snickered at Rosalie, who just grinned wildly.
" Grr," just great, I snarled.
"ComeonBellaweneedtotakeyousomewhere, it'snotagiftIpromiseyou'lllikeit, I'mnotlikeAlice,Idon'tthrowbigextravagantpartieswithballoonsandstreamersandgiantcars, andIpromiseIdidn'tbuyyouanyclothes…."
Rosalie huffed and puffed like she was out of breath, which was unusual, but my questions could wait because Alice just nodded her head, springing up and down like a trampoline and her eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas morning that ate the whole gingerbread house now on sugar rush. " Come on Bella, please, please, please, please I've learned my lesson, or else Edward would have killed me by now!"
" Except your already dead...Alice…Edward had better approve of this…" I muttered under my breath.
" No, no, no Alice! You'll never take me alive!" I screamed and thrashed against there stone grip, and kicked the side of Alice's Porsche, which left a small, little, teeny tiny, dent, the size of a penny. Alice flinched, but then widened her eyes, and smiled sweetly at me.
" By the way Bella, you are going to get into this car, I can foresee it, and you are going to love where we are going, stop acting like such a human. Since it is your birthday I am going to forget that happened," Alice said in her sweet tone. Which suddenly changed ..." Now get in the car, NOW!"
Once I was strapped inside Alice's Porsche, which felt like being locked in an asylum, they and giggled and snickered all the way like two kids who just found out they were locked in Disneyworld overnight, and had free reign to any ride they wanted. I finally caught some sleep, maybe by then, Edward would reappear, and bring me into his arms. Oh god, I hope he didn't get me anything too extravagant for my birthday. But…! I did like that nice little crisp gold wrapped box, containing the most luscious chocolate on the planet! Snap out of it Bella! What was so important?
As I drifted into a deep slumber, since someone woke me up from my weird, yet fascinating dream. Wait, no, it was out of this galaxy. It was Edward. I could practically hear the lullaby flowing across one side of my mind to the other like a sheet of music………………
Besides the sweet music, I could hear voices mumbling in the background, but I was just so incredibly tired, my eyes were forced shut like a pair of bricks were on top of them and my mind was forced back into slumber…
6:44 A.M( EDWARD POV)
I sniffed the air around me. Fuchsia's blocked the scent of the forest in front of me. Ahh, it has been half an hour since I left Bella, and I already wanted her back in my arms superglued, for the rest of eternity. How could I concentrate when my Angel was away? I hadn't hunted in weeks, but she was far better than any mountain lion or animal that crossed my path! I wanted Bella to enjoy this day, with the family, and then with me!
Oh how beautiful she was! Her eyes, her hair, her body, her dazzling smile, her kindness, I even missed helping her up when she tripped, feeling her smooth skin, and holding her close , watching the moon rise together . I let out a small chuckle. My clumsy Bella. Alice and Rosalie were taking her for a surprise taste testing at the Chocolate factory, her favorite type of candy, and then they were to take her to the park for a picnic. I knew I could trust them, they could never block there thoughts from me.
...And then I got Bella for the rest of the night! My Angel and I! Nobody else! Mwa , ha , ha!
" Edward, snap out of it!" Carlisle was snapping his fingers in a circular motion, in front of my eyes. " If you want to spend time with Bella on her birthday, that the rest of us would love to celebrate as well, then get hunting! I'll meet you back in this spot in a few hours."
" Alright" I said, and the scent immediately whipped my head in the opposite direction. I could hear the fearsome whimper of the bird, and the lion's courageous growl. I hunched into my position, eyes locked on the prize..Ready,set,go!
7:44 A.M( BELLA POV)
The foggy clouds above me finally allowed me to gain entrance into the quiet, fierce words that I managed to hear. " She's asleep and it's her birthday, are you kidding me?" the high-pitched soprano said. Grizzly bears have more fun than this.
" Oh who cares? Lets just take her in; I cannot wait to see the look on her face! She'll be so freake-. " The other voiced stopped abruptly.
" SSShhhhh, she's sleeping, you know! She'll hear and it will ruin everything!"
Hmmm, maybe I could trust these two after all! I knew it! Yum, they're taking me to a chocolate factory! Oh, I knew Edward would approve, he knows how much I love chocolate! Heaven here I come!
I was suddenly set down on a soft, fluffy mattress. Ahhh, these covers were as soft as Edward's like marshmallows…. Wait, this isn't a factory? I could hear laughter, and footsteps pounding lightly across the hall and high pitches of laughter and serious tones of conversation from one to another, but no smell of chocolate?!
Suddenly, a bright fluorescent yellow light beamed in my eyes, and I slowly, slowly, fluttered open. I let out a gasp, and turned my head to face the neatly arranged and colored room.
The room was splashed a light, sky blue color and a long, door length mirror right in the center wall next to the door. A laptop was set on a wooden desk, it looked dusted and untouched.
A huge, feathery, brown quilt was spread over me, on the large, queen sized bed. Next to the bedside table, a large duffel bag was set and it looked stuffed beyond belief, with sharp objects pointing out from the sides.
Posters of dancers, and modern, urban paintings made their way onto the walls, creating an urban, young feeling to the room. Wait, dancers? This looked like a dorm room. Suddenly, I realized that the room seemed empty, and quiet.
I was the only one here.
" Alice? Rosal-." I squinted my eyes to make out the words on the sign on the back of my door. They said auditions would start at 8:00 tonight for the So You Think You Can Da..da..da..n.n..c……I just couldn't finish the word.
As was brought to my own personal, hell.
