Edward's POV
"SOMEONE SENT US MAIL!!!!!!" I heard Emmett shout with glee from downstairs. "Aw……It's for Eddie-boy."
I rushed downstairs.
"First, do not open my letters without permission; second; never call me Eddie-boy again because my name is Edward not Eddie." I hissed.
"Gee, you didn't have to be so mean about it." Emmett retorted.
I ignored him and opened the envelope. I peered inside; it was 7 tickets, 7 backstage passes and a letter that said:
Dear Cullen Family,
Congratulations! You have won 7 tickets to a concert being performed here in New York City! You also get 7 backstage passes to see the main singer and her backup crew and get their autographs. Come if you want to, but if you don't please send it back to: 1320 75th St. Apt 10. If you have any questions, call 1-888-900-2934.
Signed,
Melody Compares
"BOO-YAH, we get to see a surprise concert and we won some sort of contest!" Emmett shouted.
"That doesn't mean we're going!" I yelled.
"No, we're all going and that's final." Esme said from upstairs.
"When does it start?" Alice asked running into the room, unfortunately, everyone want to go.
"Today at 7:00." I said calmly.
"Awesome! We still have time to get ready. Come on Rose." Alice shouted sprinting for the stairs. I stood there shaking my head. I didn't know if I could handle going to the concert or not. I still couldn't be in the public.
That will change. A voice said. It sounded so much like Bella's, so much like her sweet voice. If only I didn't leave 80 years ago, I'd be much, much more happy now. I'd give anything to feel her safe in my arms, to touch her soft mahogany hair.
Edward, why do you keep on feeling guilty? Don't, you were the one who left her. Just think how happy she might be with children and grandchildren don't think about how you're such a monster. Jasper thought. At least he was the only one who was trying to help me, mainly because he blames himself for almost killing Bella.
3:00.
4:00.
5:00.
Carlisle came home and now is examining the tickets and passes.
6:00.
Alice and Rosalie got ready waiting impatiently to go.
7:00.
"Time to go," Alice squealed. Unfortunately, Carlisle could not convince Esme to not let me go. She said it would be a waste of tickets and might hurt Melody's feelings even though we had never met her before.
We got to the address the concert was suppose to be at and there were hundreds of people there, waiting to not be noticed and slip in. The security there was tight and no one that didn't get a ticket got in.
Carlisle handed the tickets to the ticket person and we went in. The place wasn't quite packed yet, but there were a lot of people for sure. We got to our first row seats and waited.
"Man. Is it always so loud at concerts?" Jasper asked.
"Yeah," A boy that was no older than fifteen on the stage said. "I'm not forced to come here, but I have too because of my sister and my mother."
"Hello, we're the Cullens." Esme said politely.
"Hey, I'm Anthony. I'm not a fan of pop or rock, classical is much better. Mom says I take after my father." Anthony said. Lights came on and I saw him fully for the first time, unruly bronze hair, like mine and green eyes. Wonder who his dad is.
"My dad left us, so I don't know who my dad is and mom never talks about him without breaking down, so we just leave her alone." Anthony said as if he had read my mind.
Wait. I read minds, not him. I guess he just had a lucky guess.
"Well, I gotta go. Enjoy the concert!" He said before getting up and walking away.
I saw him walk in the middle of the stage with a spotlight on him. The crowd quieted and he started talking while another girl in the back was getting ready for something.
"Are guys ready for CALLIE CULLEN?" Anthony shouted.
"YEAH!" the crowd shouted.
"Well hang on tight, here's Callie with You Should've Said No!"
Then Anthony walks to the front again, sitting in front of us, I couldn't hear his thoughts, wait, am I saying that I couldn't hear his thoughts? Weird, I thought Bella was the only one I couldn't read. Guess that changed.
A girl about the age of 13 was sitting on a stool in her hands were a guitar, she was strumming the chords. She had a sweatshirt on with jeans. What kind of attire was that for a concert? But just the same, everyone was cheering so loud that I almost became deaf that day.
"It's strange to think the songs we used to sing,
the smiles, the flowers, everything,
Is gone.
Yesterday I found out about you,
Even now just looking at you,
Feels wrong.
You say, that you'd take it all back,
given one chance, it was a moment of weakness,
And you said yes."
The girl stood up and threw her guitar to the side. Then she walked across the stage, everyone was screaming. The rock band started.
"You should've said no,
you should've gone home,
you should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her, get back to me.
And I should've been there, in the back of your mind,
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
you shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet,
you should've said no
Baby and you might still have me."
Two men came on either side of her and pulled on her sleeves, it came off in half and for the first time, I saw her dark mahogany hair and the depths of her chocolate brown eyes that had a little of green in it.
Underneath, she was wearing a small black dress that hung little below her knees. She was so much like Bella, I sniffed the air, a lavender, freesia, and strawberry kind of smell was coming from her, she smelled like her too, but the question is, is she Bella?
"You can see that I've been cryin',
Baby you know all the right things,
to say.
But do you, honestly,
expect me, to believe,
we could ever be the same.
You say, that the past is the past,
you need one chance, it was a moment of weakness,
and you said yes
you should've said no,
you should've gone home,
you should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her, get back to me.
And I should've been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet,
You should've said no
Baby and you might still have me."
She put her arm around a guitar player as he played and the same two men were dancing.
"I can't resist,
before you go tell me this,
was it worth it,
and was she worth this.
No, no, no, no."
Then she walked into water that was pouring from above.
"You should've said no,
you should've gone home,
you should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her, get back to me.
And I should've been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet,
You should've said no
Baby and you might still have me."
In the end, everyone in our family found ourselves standing and clapping wildly like all the other fans. Alice was crazy, Rosalie was impressed, Jasper was, well I don't know what, and Emmett was whistling, Carlisle and Esme were both smiling, they enjoyed the music too.
Anthony got up again to the middle of the stage announcing the next song.
"Now would you like to hear Callie's newest song?" He asked.
"YEAH!" The audience and the rest of my family shouted.
"Give it up for FEARLESS!"
The girl that played 'Should've said No' came out, hair dried and in new attire, her guitar was slung on her shoulder, she arrived at the microphone, the music playing.
"You know, the best first date ever has nothing to do with where you go to dinner, and the best first date ever has nothing to do when somebody gives you flowers, because the best first day happens when you're with a person who makes you fell FEARLESS!" She says, everyone screams.
"There's something 'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I want to ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah
Oh yeah
We're driven' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm trying so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absentmindedly you're making me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
So baby drive slow
'Till we run out of road in this one horse town
I want to stay right here in this passenger's seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now capture it, remember it
Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Well you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake
I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss,
It's flawless,
Really something,
It's fearless
Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Oh, oh yeah."
Again, she had captured my heart. I was beginning to fall in love with her.
Anthony got up and ran to Callie. They hugged and for once, in 80 years, I felt jealous, Jasper glanced at me. I shrugged, trying to prove my innocence.
"Since you guys don't want to wait, Callie will be singing White Horse!"
Callie gave her guitar to a little girl with blonde hair that was in a wheelchair smiling at her. She smiled back.
"When I was a little girl, I used to read fairytales. In fairy tales, she meets Prince Charming and gets everything she's wanted. In fairytales, the bad guy is always easy to sought, you always knew where he is, you always knew who he is, the bad guy is always wearing a black cape or something and then you grew up. And you grew up and you realize maybe Prince Charming isn't so easy to find. And maybe the bad guy is not easy to spot; maybe the bad guy isn't wearing a black cape at all. He's really funny and he makes you laugh and he has perfect hair." Callie says. Then the music starts.
"Say you're sorry, that face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
Holding on, the days drag on
Stupid girl, I should have known
I should have known
I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around
Baby I was naïve, got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings, now I know
I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around
And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry
Because I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late to catch me now."
I watched as the crowd cheered and as some cried and as Callie hugged a very familiar brown-haired girl.
Please tell me what you think. I'm not a really good writer and it's just the beginning. REVIEW and I'll update more!
