Okay, so some people wanted me to write more on this so here we go. Thanks for the reviews. Oh, and in this chapter, Bella sings! But what?
Almost every night, Edward sang my lullaby instead of humming it. It was so amazing. Today, we went to the meadow and lay down on the cool grass. The sky was a rare clear light blue. The sun beat down on us and made Edward's beautiful skin shimmer like diamonds. I traced the patterns of once-used veins on his arm.
He chuckled. "Bella, when would understand that you're not good for me?"
Why would I think that?"
"Because it's true."
"I don't wanna argue on this. You're mine and there's nothing you can do about it," I stated.
He sighed and closed his eyes as I began to trace patterns on his perfect arm again. If only he knew what I could do. If only he could hear my voice. It's not as perfect as his, but it's good.
"Bella, can you sing?" he asked as if he could read my mind; which was impossible.
"Uh…I-I…um-well I don't mean I don't like to, but…Um," I stuttered like an idiot.
The blood rushed to my face which turned red as a tomato. I sighed and shrugged as an answer. Edward chuckled in response.
We laid there for about another hour until Edward decided it was getting late, and he needed to hunt. He drove me to his house, got the others and headed out. It was around two AM when I decided to sing to pass the time.
I went to the piano and began to play my song about my life: Twilight. (AN: This song is called Twilight but it's by Vanessa Carlton.)
I soon began to sing:
"I was stained
With a role
On a day not my own
But as you walked into my life
You showed what needed to be shown
And I always knew
What was right
And just didn't know that I might
Peel away
And choose to see with such a different sight
And I will never see that sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly, if held down and
I will always reach too high cause I've seen
Twilight
(Music Break)
Never cared
Never wanted
Never sought to see what flaunted
So on purpose
So in my face
Couldn't see beyond my own place
And it was so easy not to behold what I could hold
But you taught me I could change whatever came
And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down and
I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen
As the sun shines through
And pushes away and pushes ahead
It fills the warmth of blue
And leaves a chill instead and
I didn't know that I could be so blind to what is so real
But as illusion dies
I see there is so much to be reveled
And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high cause I've seen
Cause I've seen….twilight
(Music Break)
I was stained
With a role
On a day not my own
But as you walked into my life
You showed what needed to be shown
And I always knew
What was right
And just didn't know that I might
Peel away
And choose to see with such a different sight
And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down and
I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen
TWILIGHT…."
I sighed as I finished. I smiled too. I was glad I let that out. I needed to.
I heard a melody a gasps behind me and I jumped. Then I turned around and almost screamed in surprise. The Cullens were standing a few feet away from me and their eyes were so wide they looked as if they were about to fall out of their sockets and their jaws were dropped.
I gulped. "Uh…hi?"
"I…thought…you ….couldn't….sing," they all whispered, loud enough for me to hear.
"Uh…yeah, 'bout that…I could. I just don't like to," I admitted.
"How come? You were amazing!!" Emmett yelled.
"You heard it all?"
"We came in right when you began to play," Jasper said.
"Oh," I murmured while blushing.
I was in Edward's arms in less than a second. "You were beautiful, love."
I smiled and kissed him passionately as everyone else left to leave us to ourselves-which was exactly what I wanted.
I LOVE this song. To me, it does decribe Bella's life. R&R. If you want me to write more, plaese tell. I'll come up with something. It took me a little while to find out what Bella should sing because I wanted it to be on the piano. HEHE. :)
