I do not own twilight, or any of the characters unfortunately.

BTW; in this chapter, imagine Bella made up the lyrics to the song.
Imagine that it wasn;t a real song to begin with.
Its more realitic that way .

I waited until I could hear the shower running before I came out from behind the tree and snuck in through the window. One year ago I had lied to myself, telling myself I would never sneak into Bella's house, or visit Bella's house ever again.
Of course, that didn't last long.
I was too weak to stop seeing Bella.
I usually snuck in around midnight when she was definitely asleep, this time was no different, except for the fact; she wasn't asleep. She had just come back from her night out with Jessica Stanley. It was good she was getting out finally.
As I landed silently on her bedroom floor I heard Bella talking to someone. I walked over to the bathroom door to hear clearer.
She wasn't talking to anyone.
She was singing.
It was beautiful.
I slid my back down the wall and sat down resting against it just listening to her voice.
Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one, I still got the seed
You said move on, where do I go?
I guess second best is all I will know.
I wasn't sure if I had ever heard this song before. It sounded exactly like something Bella would say. She couldn't have made that up could she?
I sat there listening to her sing for what seemed like blissful hours, in reality it was a couple of minutes. I heard the water turn off but she was still singing, finishing off her song.
Oh, won't you walk through?
And bust in the door and take me away?
Oh, no more mistakes
'Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay,
I heard the lock on the bathroom door turn and panicked. I would get out in time but I didn't want to leave. I hadn't seen her yet. I forced myself to go back out the window. She would still be in Forks tomorrow. I would watch her sleep then.
I sprinted towards the house. I had no doubt in my mind Alice would be there again to scold me. As I walked into the door I heard a tapping of a foot. Alice.
"Edward, this isn't fair." she whined. I walked into the front room where she was standing with her arms crossed across her chest. Her foot stopped tapping and I could see the pain in her eyes.
"I miss her Edward. Please let me see her. It's not fair that you can see her and we can't. Or that you can sneak in and see her and she thinks your still hundreds of miles away!" I fell down onto the couch and went over the words to Bella's song in my head. It was like she had wrote it for our situation. I shook my head, angry at myself. There was no OUR situation. We were over. We had been for a year. Suddenly Alice gasped. I glanced over at her and read her vision through her mind. Alice jumped up and down.
"HA Edward, she's going to do a karaoke competition. You can't stop me going to the same club, at the same time." She smirked. I got up and put my hand on her shoulder, pleading with her through my eyes.
"Please Alice, if you must go, don't let her see you. It's been a year, she's moving on. We shouldn't ruin her life now." I dropped my head and dragged myself over to my piano. I sat there humming Bella's song and then I finally placed my fingers on the keys, placing a melody behind her lyrics. Alice came over and sat down on the bench with me. She looked so thoughtful.
"Edward, it's beautiful." she whispered. I stopped playing and looked over to her.
"Alice, give me a month. By then I will have my answer to the question in your head." She nodded and got up from the bench. She took her cell from inside her pocket and dialled a Jasper's number. It was amazing how I could tell the difference between the noises, each number made when you pressed it.
I walked towards the stairs and, taking two steps at a time, trudged to my room.
I walked straight to my stereo player. I grabbed the CD I was looking for off my shelf easily and placed it in. Claire De Lune came on.
I lay on my couch and closed my eyes, swimming through memories I had of Bella and I together. I could still smell her scent on my clothes from the steam that escaped under the door when she was in the bathroom. I smiled and was shocked at how natural this motion felt. I hadn't smiled in so long, it felt good to smile, then chuckled at myself for thinking about smiling, surprising myself again.
A month.
I had a month before Alice would get her answer although I was sure Alice knew what I would choose. I took out my cell and immediately went to the picture I had taken of Bella in our meadow when she hadn't realised.
She had her eyes closed, laying on the grass, with a smile on her face.
I sighed and flipped the phone shut again.
I re-closed my eyes and fought with the battle inside me.
The smart side of me, my brain, was telling me that I shouldn't blow it. It had been as year, she was doing so well. Why spoil it now?
The un-smart side of me, my heart, was telling me I couldn't lie to myself forever, I would eventually end up at her window, begging her to take me back.
Alice screamed with delight and bounded up the stairs.
"THANKS YOU EDWARD!" She squealed.
I knew it.
My heart won.
