Edward's POV
We were all at another one of dad's hospital charity events. Some winter ball or something. Stupid Charity!!! I hated being dragged to these awful parties. They are so boring. Thank God I had Bella with me this time though. However, I did feel bad dragging her to this event. All we could really do was dance. Bella can't dance…or so she says. Plus the music in my opinion was not danceable music. Then I looked over towards my family.
Alice was wearing a black dress with turquoise polka dots. She was a graceful dancer. Jasper on the other hand danced like well…..a wet noodle with two left feet and two right shoes. Maybe it had to do something with their height difference. However he did look quite good in the tux that Alice picked out. His turquoise tie matched well with her dress.
Then I looked at Emmett and Rosalie. Rose was clad in a bright scarlet dress the back had ruffles and she looked quite pretty. Emmett looked like a bodyguard. Their Dancing wasn't much better. Emmett dances like a robot and Rosalie…..don't get me wrong I love my sister….sometimes…..however she can't dance. She has no rhythm hat so ever.
Finally my eyes fell upon Esme and Carlisle. Carlisle really did look like a movie star in his tux and Esme look beautiful. The light green dress Alice and Rose picked out looked amazing on mom. I think that they are the only couple in our family who could dance. Dad and mom were the only ones dancing. They were at ease, these were there moment together. Just then my thoughts were interrupted.
"This music sucks." Emmett yelled at me.
"Well what can you do about it?"
"I've just hatched an idea." Then he smiled that scary smile meaning Emmett had a plan. He left the banquet hall.
Then he walked back in carrying a two very large black speakers and a laptop. I watched him set it up in the corner and then plug them in. I swallowed hard trying to imagine what might happen. Then the worst happened.
"YO, YO, YO Doctors Nurses and my fellow Americans Big Bad Emmett's in the house!!!!!
Then I looked over at my father who was completely mortified. My mother clung tightly to his side.
"I'd like to restart this boring evening by one of my absolute favorite pass times….KARAOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Emmett boomed "Who's first……come on any one…..please……don't be shy…..it's really fun!!!!!!
Then I heard a voice from behind me. "I'll sing Emmett." It was Alice. Alice was always up for karaoke. Then Alice got up on stage and whispered her song choice in to Emmett's ear. She began to sing…..
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah you, PMS
Like a bitch
I would know
And you always think
Always speak
Cryptically
I should know
That you're no good for me
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
We used to be
Just like twins
So in sync
The same energy
Now's a dead battery
Used to laugh bout nothing
Now you're plain boring
I should know that
you're not gonna change
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
Someone call the doctor
Then she pointed at Carlisle making him blush
Got a case of a love bi-polar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
Next came Rosalie. She even had a little dance to go along with her song. We all could obviously tell that Dad did not approve of her dance. However, Emmett did.

Soon after Emmett, Jasper, and I all sang Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy. We were all having so much fun. Alice and Rosalie even got Bella to get up on stage and sing Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. Then most of the younger nurses and other doctors came up and sang karaoke. Most of us didn't even realize that Carlisle and Esme had left the dance floor.
I looked over to find them standing next to the dessert table. Mom slipped a piece of chocolate cake in to dad's mouth, which made him smile. I watched as he lovingly put an arm around her.
This was the first time they weren't dancing. They had stopped dancing when the music changed. Then I realized that the tango, the salsa, the waltz, the rumba, and many other dances they were familiar with, but grinding was foreign to them. However, I was not going to teach my parents how to grind either. Then the best idea struck me.
I ran as quickly as I could up to Emmett and explained to him my plan. He told the rest of my siblings. We all agreed that it was a super idea.
"Hey, hey, hey Ladies and gents we've just ha a request for a song to play. These people also wanted it to be a special dance Doctor Cullen and his wife because they look like they might need some fun." Emmett smiled.
Alice turned off the lights; While Jasper turned a spotlight on and flashed it toward mom and dad. Bella took their plates. Then Rose pulled them on to the dance floor. They stood in the center of the dance floor while all the other guests stepped off to the side. Then the music began to play.

They finished with a kiss. It was was a perfect end to one of the perfect evening.
