Hey guys! I know I haven't updated my other stories but so far I am really into this book, aren't you? (: Anyway, here's chapter!
BPOV
I didn't fall asleep that night until nearly three. The concert made me so pumped up, I could barely keep myself quiet. I woke up before Rose or Alice did so I went into the living room, and ate a bowl of cereal while watching the news. Of course first it was the weather, but I really wanted to hear something juicy. When I mean something juicy, I don't mean my face all over the news. But that's exactly what I got.
"Last night on stage at The Cullen's concert, they had a few extra guests. One of them was recognized as Isabella Swan, who was spotted with Edward Cullen, the lead singer, a week ago, when they were found kissing on his front porch." The news broadcaster reported, as the picture of me and Edward was in the corner. "Some say she bribed herself and her two other friends into the band, others say she slept her way into the band. That mystery is left unsolved. But on the up side, Isabella could be the next it girl. This is Cassandra Johnson reporting live on channel 8. Back to you Rick." I had enough. I turned off the TV, and stormed up to my room.
We had a concert tonight and I was going to show them a piece of my mind. I was working on this song that I think is going to be a hit but first I have to consult with Edward. I dialed him up on my cell phone, and held the lyrics in my other hand.
"Hey!" He answered on the second ring.
"Hey! So I was watching the news and..." I said, but was interrupted.
"Oh, I saw that. Don't listen to them. They are just looking for a good story and right now it happens to be us that's in the lime light." Edward explained.
"Yeah, I get that. But I called to see if we can try out a new song tonight. I wrote it and I think it will give the paparazzi a piece of my mind."
"I think it's risky but if we got there ahead of schedule I think we can practice it a couple times."
"Okay, I'll send you an e-mail with the lyrics and the notes, and show them to Emmett and Jasper. I'll show it to Alice and Rose." I said.
"Sounds great. I can't wait to see it." I heard the smile in his voice.
"I'm sending it right now." I said, as I pulled the online copy up on my laptop and sent it to him. "It's sent."
He must've been on his computer, because I heard clicking in the background.
"This looks promising." He said slowly, I'm guessing he was scrolling down the page.
"Okay, practice it!" I said into the phone.
"I will. I'll see you around five?" He said.
"Sounds good. Bye!" I smiled and hung up. I went back to the kitchen and Alice and Rose were up.
"'Morning, sunshine." I said to them, as they yawned at the same time. "I have some music for you to read over for the concert tonight. We have to have it down, and practice at 5." I told them.
"Five! Really?" Alice was suddenly wide awake. "That's only like four hours. Hurry up and get dressed guys! I have to pick out the outfits, take a shower, straighten my hair..." She kept going on and on, and I decided to tone her out. I went up to my room and put on a t-shirt and some Nike shorts. I put my hair in a pony tail, and didn't bother too look good since Alice was just going to doll me up later. I put on my comfy TOMS, grabbed my purse and waited for them to get out of the bathroom.
"Are you guys almost ready?" I yelled.
"Yeah, one second! I have to get your guys' outfits." Alice yelled back. I sighed, and pulled out my cell phone.
We're going to be a little early there so get there in maybe a half hour. -B
He quickly responded with,
Okay sounds good. See you in a few. -E
With that, I shut my phone just as Alice and Rose were coming into the kitchen.
"Ready to go?" I asked, making sure they didn't forget anything.
"Yep." Rose said as we all left to go to the concert hall.
"Can we stop by the gas station? I really need a drink and the car needs gas." I said as we got into Rose's convertible. They agreed and we went to the closest gas station. I grabbed a Coke, and went to check out. Alice was flipping through the limited amount of magazines.
"Bella? Look at this." Alice said, and showed me a magazine. I groaned. I swear if I see myself on another magazine I'm going to go crazy.
"Why aren't you guys on the cover of any magazines?" I whined.
"Because we aren't dating one of the Cullen boys." Alice said.
"Yet!" Rose butted in. I laughed and payed for my Coke.
We got there with a few minutes to spare so us three started to sing the song archipelago, which is singing without the background music. It sounded pretty good before the guys came.
"Hey. I read over the music and I was thinking Bella should sing this one." Emmett said.
"Sounds good to me." I said, and took my position in the front of the stage. I used a stand for my microphone this time. We ran through it a couple times until we got it all down.
"I'm just loving this song, Bella. Did you write it?" Jasper asked.
"Um, yeah. I couldn't go to sleep last night."
"That's what Edward does all the time. He even uses the instruments sometimes and wakes us up. It drives Jasper and I crazy!" Emmett boomed the last part.
"Lucky for us, Bella doesn't have any instruments to play during the night." Rose laughed. We talked and joked around for a little while before we had to go get dressed for the show. Alice picked out a tight dress for me, that went to mid thigh. It had tight long sleeves and was a bright white with sparkles all over it.
I went to go meet the guys and Edward's jaw dropped to the floor.
"You look amazing. Remind me to thank Alice later." He wrapped his arms around me and leaned down for a kiss.
"No kissing! It'll mess up her make up!" Alice and Rose came half running our way. Edward groaned and mumbled under his breath.
"You're on in three minutes." The stage crew member told us. This time I was starting off with the song I wrote, and then we were finishing with my other song like last time. Edward said he had a new song as well, and only he was going to be singing and playing guitar. We ran on, and the crowd was just as obnoxious as last night.
"Hey, guys! I'm Bella, a new singer, and I'm going to be starting off with a new song I wrote. I hope you like it!" I said into the microphone.
The guys started the music, and I readied myself.
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
And now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn, to win some or learn some
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love love
So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
[ Lyrics from: .com/lyrics/j/jason_mraz/im_ ]
And do ya want to scooch on over closer dear,
And I will nibble your ear
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see ya clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'm saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm yours
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
So please don't, please don't, please don't, there's
No need to complicate cause our time is short this
Oh this oh this oh this is our fate, I'm yours.
When I finished the crowd went crazy. The rest of the concert went on until Edward was going to do his solo. He pulled up a chair, put his guitar on his lap and lowered his microphone stand.
"This song I've decided to do solo. It's dedicated to that special someone." He smiled and began singing.
You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.
And you play it coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.
And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
The crowd erupted in loud cheers. I smiled when he finished because I knew who it was about. He got up and came over to me and pulled me into a huge hug. He lifted me up and spun me around. I squealed, and the whole crowd was still cheering when he set me down. I laughed and he went back over to his guitar.
I sang my song and the concert was over. Edward pulled me back stage and whispered just loud enough so I could barely hear.
"I love you."
Can't wait to update for the next chapter! By the way the songs were I'm Yours by Jason Mraz and Everything by Michael Buble.
