SO NEW STORY! Sadly after the abduction of my most popular story, I am going to start posting this story.
This was going to be my first story originally, but I really wanted to write my own Breaking Dawn.
This story is going to take place right after Twilight ended.
Some of the events in New Moon will still take place, but it will also be a bit different.
I hope you all like my new story, and PLEASE REVIEW!
If you don't like the entire story line, then im sorryyy!
And to fan fiction, this story IS in terms of guideline.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Stephenie Meyer owns this wondrous novel.
Btw. Thank you to GingerPanda, who got a first look at this story, and thought it should be posted (:
After finishing up junior year at Forks High School, I couldn't wait to spend my summer vacation with the Cullens, especially Edward.
He had been so good to me for the past few days after the whole, James incident, that I really wanted to thank him.
Today was sunny out, so I wanted to take advantage of the weather and head down to the beach in La Push and just relax. I still wish that Edward could come to La Push, so I wouldn't be leaving him behind. But since it was also sunny out, he would attract attention.
"I'll be back later, okay Edward?" I called him before I headed down.
"Ok, I love you." Edward said.
"I love you too," I smiled into the phone before hanging up.
While driving in my car down to merge into the highway, I saw that there was a new store opening up, a piano store in fact.
I parked up front, my curiosity getting the better of me.
Edward would love this store…I walked into the store, and gasped at the huge selection of grand pianos everywhere - all created with all different types of wood, like mahogany and oak.
I ran my fingers over the keys, feeling the smooth texture slide underneath my fingertips.
I looked over at the back of the store, and saw a small little room with a bulletin board on the side of the door.
I went over to the bulletin board, and glanced over at the lonely paper that was pinned down on the board by itself.
I wondered what it said, so I shifted by body down a few steps, so I would be able to read it. I was surprised yet happy at its announcement - maybe I could use this to my advantage.
" Want to learn how to play piano? Sign up for our weekly/daily classes taking place from 1-3 in the afternoon!!"
There was already a list of people who were signed up, like Angela Weber and Ben Cheney. They really made quite a cute couple when together.
I quickly signed my name underneath theirs, and grabbed one of the business cards from there.
The piano store was called Grand Love , which I thought was totally suited for the store.
A boy walked over to me, who had dirty blonde hair and piercing emerald eyes, and looked at the list.
"Bella Swan, is it? My name's Daniel Huntington, but my friends call me Danny," he held his hand out to me. I shook it; he had a firm grip, "I'm going to be the piano instructor."
"Oh, excuse my manners," I said, realizing that I was staring at him attentively.
He laughed, throwing his head back, "Oh, its quite alright. Now what the reason that you are so eager to take piano?" I could sense a small hint of sarcasm in his voice.
"Well, my boyfriend plays piano, and I just want to surprise him by learning a composition for him."
"That's really sweet, do you mind me asking who your boyfriend is?" His eyes were glossed with curiosity.
"Edward Cullen."
"Ah, one of the Cullens I see. I have actually heard him play," Danny let him hand brush through his thick dirty blonde hair.
"Really?" I was surprised that others had heard Edward play - he didn't tend to do any musical performances in public or anything.
"Yes, well it was in the music room in the high school. I was passing by when I heard him playing - it was beautiful."
"Yes, he is quite the player." I laughed, I didn't mean for it to sound like he was a player as if with girls.
"Haha. Do you have a song choice in mind?"
I had thought about this question for a while, I wanted a really good love song, or anything that would be able to explain what the past few months of my life where like. I did have an idea in my mind, and I was hoping that it would be good.
"I was thinking Starlight by Muse. It's a perfect piece to play on the piano, while it's a nice song too." I blushed, I couldn't really set my mind to anything else except for Starlight.
"I have never heard that song, do you have a cd of it?" Danny looked at me, hoping that he would be able to spend a few more minutes conversing.
"I actually do." I began to dig into my beach bag - I had brought my cd player along with a few cd's to listen to, including Muse, Gavin DeGraw, Coldplay, Fergie, and Blue October.
I found the Muse album, and walked into the small room with Danny, where there was one grand piano, and a desk, loaded with papers on top. Next to the desk, there was a lamp, and a stereo, that looked like it could hold 10 cd's at once, with many buttons and knobs.
I walked over to the stereo, and put in the Black Holes and Revelations cd, pressing play and putting on the track for Starlight.
Danny and I spent the next few minutes reminiscing in the lovely beat and harmonics in the song; Danny was bobbing his head up and down along with the tempo.
Once the song had ended, I took the cd back out from the stereo and put it back into my bag.
"I believe that we have the music for that song," Danny said, walking over to a file cabinet, opening one of the drawers and flipping through the piles of music there were in there.
"Aha!" he said loudly, pulling out a folded sheet of paper, "Here it is," he handed it to me.
"Wow, this looks confusing…" I scrunched my face in confusion, all the notes looked pretty hard to read. I had learned the normal setting of notes when I was little, but that's it.
"Its really easy though, do you know the order of notes," Danny walked up behind me, looking at the music over my shoulder. I could feel his breath on the back of my neck - it was making me get goosebumps.
"C, D, E, F, G, A, B. I had learned it when I was little," I explained to him, scanning through the piece.
"Very good. Do you want me to give you a small demonstration?" He went over to the grand piano, and sat down on the bench. He patted his hand next to him, motioning me to come over and sit down next to him.
"Ok, play the first verse," I told him, laying out the notes on the stand.
"I will, but you will have to sing along," he said, looking at me. My heartbeat began to quicken, oh no, I really don't want to!!
"Do I have to?"
"Yes."
Well, there was no use in actually fighting with him.
"Okay," I said, clearing my throat so I don't sound extremely bad.
Danny laid his fingers on the keys, testing out each of them before playing the actual song.
He looked at me and nodded, signaling that he was ready.
I took a deep breath, and started singing along to Danny playing on the piano.
Far away,
This ship is taking me far away,
Far away from our memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if its worth it anymore
We continued on for a bit more of the song, getting into the feeling of the music, as if we are twisting and turning the notes.
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms….
Danny stopped playing the music, and turned his gaze over to me, a smile beaming on his face.
"You sing wonderfully. I'm very impressed." I blushed furiously, I didn't think I had a beautiful voice at all.
"Thank you. And thank you for this little preview, I really liked it. I guess I will be seeing you 3 times a week then, from 1 to 3," I smiled over at him, grabbing my stuff off the ground, and getting ready to leave for the beach.
"Oh, Can I have your number? Just so I can call you if we need to reschedule, or I have an opening or something?" he asked me, hoping that I wouldn't turn him down.
I gave him my home number, since I didn't have a cell phone. Its not like I needed one anyways, I had Edward with me.
"So, I'll see you later," I shook Danny's hand one last time before heading out of the store and back to my truck.
Driving down to La Push, I couldn't help but think what Edward would think of my present to him. I really hope he would like it, and appreciate it as well.
I arrived at the beach, and grabbed my towel and beach bag, and found the perfect spot to lay down and relax.
I put in my Blue October cd into my cd player and stuck my earphones into my ears.
The entire afternoon was refreshing and relaxing. The soft wind blew across the sky, filled with the scent of the salt water from the rich blue water.
Last the sun descended down, and twilight began to begin, I grabbed all my stuff and began to head back home to Forks.
The ride back home was quiet, yet relaxing. I didn't feel like putting on the radio, even though it really didn't work at all.
Pulling into the driveway, I could see that Charlie was home already.
Oh, no I forgot to make him dinner! I slapped my hand on my forehead and got my keys out from my purse. I opened the door and heard the loud muttering of the game playing on the tv.
"Dad, I'm home," I said, walking over to the living room, "I'm so sorry I wasn't able to make dinner!"
"Its ok, Bells. I ordered pizza. There is some leftover for you in the refrigerator."
"Thanks dad," I smiled at Charlie, who was too into the game to notice me leave.
I went upstairs and got ready for bed, and just before I tucked myself in, the phone began to ring.
"I'LL GET IT!" I screamed, so Charlie could hear me.
"Hello?" I whispered into the phone.
"Hey Bella!" It was Alice.
"Hey Alice, why are you calling so late?" Ok, so it wasn't really late, but it was later than usual to call a person's house.
"I just wanted to say that I know what your going to do for Edward, and I think its perfect," I could hear her squealing in the background.
"Thanks Alice, just make sure that Edward doesn't find out."
" Of Course!" she exclaimed, " You can trust me 100!"
"haha, I do."
"We'll, ill talk to you tomorrow. By the way, Edward's gone hunting tonight so he wont be over! He told me to tell you he loves you and he'll be over in the morning."
"Ok, night Alice."
"Night." She hung up.
I put the phone back on the receiver, and got myself comfortable in bed, and fell into a dreamless slumber.
That is the first chapter of my new story!
PLEASE REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK (:
I will try to update both stories regularly, and if I get delayed, I am reallllly sorry!!
