Hello everyone! Horribly sorry for not updating yesterday. I had TONS of homework and then my mom took me out to practice driving. I get my permit in like two weeks and then I have driver's ed so I'm trying to be somewhat prepared. I got to about 25 miles an hour yesterday and I thought I was going fast. SAD! Lol

I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT, THE JOKER, LUCKY, JASON MRAZ, OR AMERICAN BOY!

Chapter Four: Starting to Remember

'Some people call me the space cowboy. Some call me the gangster of love. Some call me Maurice.' Rang from my cell phone.

Stupid Braden and the Steve Miller Band, I said to myself.

"Sorry," I spoke quickly and took out my cell phone.

"What do you want Braden?" I asked harshly.

"Who's the one with the stick up their butt now?"

"Sorry."

"Just wanted to let you know we have rehearsal. Mraz just got here. He wants to practice your new duet for tonight."

"Jason's here?" I asked panicky.

"Yea."

"Oh god."

"Calm down."

"I'll be there in five." I told him.

"Fine."

I hung up and turned back to the Forever Young, "I'm sorry. I have to go. Can we talk later?"

"I guess. Can we come watch you rehearse?" Alice asked.

"How did you…?"

She tapped her head.

"Right. Well, you all are welcome to come," I smiled.

I ran out of their bus and to the stadium.

"Bella," Jason smiled as I walked in.

"Jason!" I squealed and ran to him.

He gave me a hug.

Jason and I had been picked up by the record company at about the same time. I guess you can say we've "grown up" together. We had talked about doing a duet forever but had finally decided to do one now.

"How've you been?" He asked.

"Same old, same old. You?"

"Same."

"Well, you want to start practicing?"

"Yea. I love this song. It's beautifully written."

"Thanks."

We walked to the stage and I noticed Forever Young in the audience.

"Ready?" He asked.

"Yup."

My band started playing.

(Lucky by Jason Mraz feat. Colbie Callait) Bella=Bold Jason= Underlined Bella & Jason = Bold & Underlined

Do you hear me? I'm talking to you

Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying

Boy I hear you in my dreams
I hear your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hardI'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
OooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohooohThey don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air
I put a flower in your hair


And though the breeze is through trees
Though so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

When we finished everyone was clapping, except Edward.

"That was great!" I smiled at Jason.

"You are amazing."

"Shut up!" I smacked him.

"I wish we could do another duet," I said sadly, "They're so much fun."

"I have an idea!" Lilly smiled, skipping onto the stage.

"What?"

"You and Braden should sing American Boy. You always do that so well on the bus."

"Exactly. That's on the bus."

"Oh come on it's just us and the Cullens."

"Cullens?" I asked.

"Yea Forever Young. Ringing any bells?"

"Ohhh. Right."

"Do it! Do it! Do it!" Alice squealed.

"Fine. Braden you up for it?"

"Whatever," he sighed and stood up from his sitting post, also known as the drum set.

"Don't be excited or anything."

"Don't worry I won't."

Lilly brought out a huge stereo and blasted the music so Braden and I started singing.

(American Boy by Estelle feat. Kanye West)

[Braden]
Just another one champion sound
Yea Estelle we about to get down
Who the hottest in the world right now.
Just touched down in London town.
Bet they give me a pound.
Tell them put the money in my hand right now.
Tell the promoter we need more seats,
We just sold out all the floor seats[Bella]
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day.
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You'll be my American Boy.[Braden]
Who Killing 'em in the UK.
Everybody gonna to say you K, reluctantly, because most of this press don't f**k with me.
Estelle once said to me, "Cool down, down, don't act a fool now, now."
I always act a fool oww oww.
Ain't nothing new now now.
He crazy, I know what ya thinkin'.
Ribena I know what you're drinking.
Rap singer. Chain Blinger.
Holla at the next chick soon as you're blinking.
What's your persona.
About this Americana Brahma.
Am I shallow cause all my clothes designer.
Dressed smart like a London Bloke.
Before he speak his suit bespoke.
And you thought he was cute before.
Look at this pea coat, tell me he's broke.
And I know you're not into all that.
I heard your lyrics I feel your spirit.
But I still talk that CASH.
Cause a lot wags want to hear it.
And I'm feeling like Mike at his Baddest.
The Pips at they Gladys.
And I know they love it.
So to hell with all that rubbish[Bella]
Would you be my love, my love.
Could be mine would you be my love my love, could be mine
Could you be my love, my love.
Would you be my American Boy? American Boy

He said "Hey Sister.
It's really really nice to meet you."
I just met this 5 foot 7 guy who's just my type.
I like the way he's speaking his confidence is peaking.
Don't like his baggy jeans but I'm a like what's underneath them.
And no I ain't been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York heart awaits.
First let's see the west end.
I'll show you to my bedroom.
I'm liking this American Boy. American Boy

Take me on a trip, I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You'll be my American Boy

Can we get away this weekend?
Take me to Broadway.
Let's go shopping maybe then we'll go to a café.
Let's go on the subway.
Take me to your hood.
I never been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good.
Dress in all your fancy clothes.
Sneaker's looking fresh to death; I'm loving those Shell Toes.
Walking that walk,
Talk that slick talk.
I'm liking this American Boy. American Boy.

Take me to Chicago, San Francisco Bay
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.

Let them know a gwan blud

Take me on a trip, I'd like to go someday
Take me to Chicago, San Francisco Bay.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You'll be my American Boy

"WOOO!!" Emmett yelled and I fake curtsied.

"Thanks for putting up with me, bro." I smiled at Braden.

"Yea, yea. You only want me for my mad skills."

"Sure," I laughed.

Braden walked towards Kaya and encircled her waste. When they started kissing I looked away.

My eyes caught Edward's. He gave me a dazzling crooked smile and the flashbacks started again. They were becoming a frequent thing and had been coincidentally set off by the Cullens' arrival. Odd.

It was Edward, smiling that smile.

Once I snapped out of it I stared at him and then ran off the stage.

"Bella?" I heard Kaya ask.

I ran to the bus and into my room.

Had I known Edward? Maybe all of the Cullens? They did seem very familiar. They were trying to tell me something earlier…what was it?

I paced back and forth and back and forth and back and forth.

There was a knock at the door, "Bella?" Kaya's muffled voice rang through the door.

I slowly went over to the door and opened it.

She sighed, "What's wrong?"

I quietly walked to the couch, sat down, and looked out the window. She followed suit.

"I'm starting to remember."

"Remember?"

"My human life."

Kind of a cliffy, but not really. Yippee!!! Also, this story isn't going to be super long. It will not come close to 'The Way I Am'. I'm guessing about ten or so more chapters and that's it. I just have soooo many ideas for stories and I'd really like to broaden my horizons! Thanks to everyone who has been reviewing! You're the best.
