Chapter Two—
We pulled into the Cullen driveway and waited for Carlisle to come home. In the mean time, Emmett and Jasper played video games, Rosalie and Alice had a make over, Edward was on the piano, and Esme and I talked.
"You sang in class? That's strange… I sang about being annoyed at a dent in the wall from the boys playing football. I heard music—"
"Then it was like you were in a rehearsed musical!" I said.
"Yes, exactly."
"I sang Don't Worry, Be Happy today." Jasper cut in while shooting Emmett's person.
"You did? Hmm…" I grinned. "It's very fitting." I said. After about an hour of that, Carlisle was home.
"What is it? You're all here like something's going on." He said, hanging his jacket.
"Yeah, some people broke out in song today." Edward said. He told him the story.
"Strange… I sang to a patient today… telling him that he has a rash and how it could be treated." He shook his head, and then we heard the music.
"I've got a theory,
That it's the Volturi,
They have a witch, no, something isn't right there." Carlisle sang.
"I've got a theory,
That it's Jasper's fault,
And we're all stuck inside this emotion roller-coaster." Rosalie sang. Jasper glared at her.
"I've got a theory we should work this out," Esme said. Carlisle and Edward joined her.
"It's getting eerie, what's this cherry singing all about?" They said.
"It could be witches,
Some evil witches,
Which is ridiculous,
'Cuz witches, they were persecuted,
And they do not exist,
And mystic power,
And I'll be over here." Alice said, as she walked away.
"I've got a theory,
It could be bunnies." Emmett said. We all looked at him, obviously thinking the same thing. Do you have some complex against bunnies?
Jasper turned to us. "I've got a—" Emmett interrupted him.
"Bunnies aren't as cute like everybody supposes,
They've got them hoppy legs, and twitchy little noses,
And what's with all the carrots,
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies!" He said, and then he calmed down.
"Or maybe midgets."
Jasper sang again. "I've got theory we should work this fast," Carlisle joined him, "Because it clearly could get serious before it's passed."
"I've got a theory, it doesn't matter," Everyone turned to me.
"What can't you face if you're together?
What's in this place that you can't whether?
The Volturi, we've all been there.
The same old trips, why should you care?" I sang. Everyone started singing without me.
"What can't we do if we get in it?
What can't we work within a minute?
We have to try; we'll pay the price,
It's do or die."
"You're already dead." I pointed out.
"What can't we face if we're together?"
"There is nothing." I said.
"What's in this place that we can't whether?"
"So small, a place."
"There's nothing we can't face." Emmett sat down.
"Except for bunnies…" The music stopped.
"Um… what was that?" Edward asked, hugging me tightly.
"The thing that we've been talking about, dear Edward," I replied.
"It's not my fault, Rose." Jasper glared at his sister.
"Seriously, Emmett, bunnies?" Alice asked.
"One thing is for sure… the word theory is now ruined…" Edward said.
"I thought you like my theories." I pouted, but he knew that I was kidding.
