Rosalie's P.O.V
Ok, so it's been a week since the "fun dip incident" and no competition yet, the contest will start later today, so the last week was to relax, settle in, and hang out with the other bands. So, for us it meant week-to-spend-with-the-boys. But, today we were hanging out in our dressing room getting ready for later. So, here I am in the bathroom taking my shower, when I get out and get changed I hear music from the other room. I walk in to see Bella strumming her guitar and singing with her eyes closed so she couldn't hear me.
"If I could be your angel,
Protect you from the pain,
I'll keep you safe from danger.
You'll never hurt again.
I'll be your
A-N-G-E-L,
A-N-G-E-L.
I'll be your angel."
I started clapping, and her eyes flashed open, and she blushed as she saw me. I walked up to her and smiled.
"That was really good Bella. It was so powerful." She smiled brightly and said "Thanks Rose, I don't know where that came from, I just thought of it and I started singing." With that I took our song notebook and opened to a blank page and wrote down what she just sang a minute ago. She saw me writing and was about to say something but then Alice walked in, with Mark right behind her. Mark saw us and smiled and said "Hey girls! Well, I was sent by Jason to get you so come on down!" He said the last part with a fake game show voice like they do on the Price is Right (A/N- ;)) we laughed as we got up and followed Mark outside. He brought us to one of those golf carts like cars that are all over the Hollywood sets backstage. We piled in and Mark drove us to the stage where the show was being filmed. As were driving, we hear a honk. We all turn around to see Emmett honking the horn of the cart behind us. We all laugh and wave as we pull over to the sound stage. The boys pull in next to us. "Hey guys!" Alice says just as bubbly as ever and hugs all of the boys. Me and Bella respond "Hey" at the same time and Emmett runs over to me and Bella and pulls us into one of his bone crushing-bear hugs. He spun us around and we laugh until he puts us down. Edward then walks over to Bella, pulls her into a hug and then comes over to me and pulls me into a hug. Was it just me or did Bellas hug last a little longer then mine and Alice's? I look over at Jasper with a smirk on my face to see he has the same face. He walks over to me and pulls me into a one armed hug, and pulls Bella into the other arm. Before we walk into the stage, Bella, Alice, and me turn around and scream "Thanks for the ride Mark!" He just laughs and says "Kick every ones ass ok?" We laughed and give him thumbs up and walk into the stage. As we walk in, we see Jason and a few other bands standing there towards the door, waiting for the other bands to arrive. Five minutes after we arrive, the other bands come in and then Jason tells us that the contest will start tonight. We have all day to write a song…but that song has to be an upbeat rock or pop song…..easy. He explains that each week, the song has to be a certain style. Alright, sounds easy enough. Let's rock girls.
Bella's P.O.V
"Alright, and upbeat pop song? What should it be about?" Alice says as she walks into the sound proof room and plops down on the couch. "How about we do one of those songs about a girl about a boy she dated but didn't really like?" I asked. Rose and Alice look at me and smile. "Not like that, about a girl who wants the boy to go fuck off because she doesn't want a boy like that." Rose said. We laugh and then started thinking of a beat.
Three Hours Later
We FINALLY finished! I wonder how the boys are doing.
Edward's P.O.V (Three hours back)
Ok, so we have to write an upbeat pop or rock song…under two seconds flat we decided to do rock. We also to do a song about a guy who wanted a relationship but was sure he was going to fuck it up. "So, do you guys have any idea for a beat or lyrics or something?" Emmett asked from the drum set that was set up. Me and Jasper were holding the guitar and bass and were sitting on the couch. "No, but im sure that we will soon." Jasper replied while strumming random chords on the bass. As he said, a few minutes we were working on a beat. Now, we only need lyrics.
Two Hours Later
Ok, we finished the music and we just need a chorus. We have the verses, we just can't think of a chorus that blends. "God damn it! Were so close!!! Why can't we just think of something!" Emmett was in his deep-in-thought position, which is what the statue…what's it called…the thinking man? Anyway, whatever the fuck that thing is called, he saw a picture of it on the internet and that is now he's thinking position…yep…"Shut up Emmett, were trying to think but you fucking screaming isn't helping!" I snap at him. He glares at me but then shuts up and we go back to thinking.
One Hour Later
Done, Finally! It took forever but we finally thought of the perfect chorus. So, were done I wonder how the girls are doing.
Bella's P.O.V
A half an hour after we finished, Mark came to get us to bring us to the stage. Tonight, the show was premiering on TV. So, today was the two hour premiere. It's the introductions to the bands and the performances. Then, like American Idol (A/N: Don't own that either) the next episode, someone gets the boot. Suddenly we hear someone shouts our names "Bella! Rose! Alice!" we turn around to see Edward, Jasper, and Emmett running down the hallway towards us. We stop and wait for them. For the past week we have been hanging out with the guys and walking around the big city. Me and Edward have grown closer and was my best friend besides Alice and Rose. Emmett became the big brother I never had, I remember when I first met him I thought he was intimating, but he really is just a big teddy bear. Jasper's just like Emmett, well, not the teddy bear, just the really great big brother. He's also Emmett's partner in crime. Trust me; you do NOT want to be the victim of one of Emmett and Jasper's pranks. Im not even going to tell you what they did to us…I still shudder at the memory. "Hey Bella!" Edward says once they got over to us. He pulled me into one of he's hugs. He's still an Adonis to me, and every time he's near me, or touches me, my heart leaps. "Hey Edward! How'd the song writing for you guys go?" He smiled his signature crooked smile that still makes my heart melt. "It was interesting. Took a while though? How about for you?" I laughed as I remembered Alice's discovery of the video of her sugar rush on Rose's phone. She flipped out! "What's so funny?" I tried to stop laughing enough to answer him "Alice, discovered that Rose recorded her sugar rush on her phone. She tried to delete but we put it out of her reach so she just sat there pouting for 20 mins." I said and then laughed again, Edward joined me. Then Emmett ran up to me and pulled me into one of his signature bone crushing hugs. "What's up Bella?!" I laughed at his enthusiasm. "Nothing Emmett, just trying to breathe." "Oh, sorry" He put me down and then Jasper walked over and gave me a quick hug and then walked put over to Alice. I sighed, he's really likes Alice. Me and Edward just stood there talking for 5 minutes before Jason came backstage. "Ok, were about to start filming, I need all bands backstage. Wait, for the director to tell you when to come out! Thanks guys and ill see you out there!" With that, he turned around and walked onto the stage. Then, the director came out and said "Quiet on the set! Quiet on the set! Rolling in 5-4-3-2-1!" You could hear the Shows band playing the theme song for the show. Then, you could hear Jason introducing the show. "Hey everyone, and welcome to Battle of the Bands! We have 20 hip-new-undiscovered bands for you that ware wanting their chance at the spotlight. Over the course of the competition, 19 bands will go home empty handed, but one band will get it all. Along with their chance at spotlight as the next hot band, they will also get a cruise to the Caribbean for them, their family, and one more band of their choice." At this us and the boys look at each other smiling. "Ok, if we win, we are soooooo going together!" Alice squealed. "For sure!" Emmett agreed. "Every week, the bands will perform a song they wrote themselves and then you at home will vote for your favorite to keep them in the competition. After you vote, the next day, one band will be eliminated. This will happen every week until one band is remaining! So, let's met the bands!" The director told us that was our cue, so we all walked onto stage with huge smiles on our faces and waved to the screaming crowd. "Ok, so let's introduce you to the bands! First off we have Explosive Paradise!" As the crowd cheered three guys walked up to the edge of the stage and then walked back. After a few more names, Jason called our band; we walked up to the edge of the stage and waved to the crowd. After we walked back, we heard the boys cheering for us. Then they were called, and just like them, we cheered for them along with the crowd. When they walked back they looked at us smiling. Then Jason walked back to the stage and declared that he contest will start after the commercial break. "Ok, Forbidden Beat, you're up first, so come with me to get you instruments." We already had our make-up done and our outfits on. I was wearing dark skinny jeans with a black and white patterned shirt and black converses with my hair straight with blond highlights. Alice was wearing skinny jeans with blue heals and a bright blue shirt, while rose had her hair straight and had the same skinny jeans with red heels and a red shirt to match. Edward pulled me over and said "Good luck! You'll do great!" He also smiled his crooked smile and let me go. "Thanks Edward! I'll talk to you later" With that I ran after the director and got my just tuned guitar. We walked to the stage and took our places as the lights turned off. I took a deep breath and then Jason walked back onto stage and the light shined on him.
Edward's P.O.V (I was going to stop it there, but I decided not to, don't you just love me right now? lol!)
Bella walked off and I watched her go. She is the most beautiful thing I have seen. I watched as she took to stage but then sighed in frustration as the lights turned off. Then, Jason walked onto stage and the spotlight shined on him. "Ok, let's get the night started, first up performing their new song He Wasn't, here is the Forbidden Beat!" The crowd cheered and then the lights came on and I saw Bella smiling brightly as she an Alice started the opening riff. She then walked up to mic and started to sing and Rose started to play. I still can't believe how great her voice sounds.
"There's not much going on today,
I'm really bored, it's getting late.
What happened to my Saturday?
Monday's coming, the day I hate.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the phone."
Alice and Rose then started singing with her for the chorus. (Key: B-Bella G-Girls)
"He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even open up the door.
He never made me feel like I was something special.
He isn't really what I was looking for."
By now, the crowd was clapping to the beat and screaming whenever they got the chance. I saw Bella smile as she continued.
B
"This is when I start to bite my nails
And clean my room when all else fails.
I think it's time for me to bail.
This point of view is getting stale.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the phone."
G
"He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even open up the door.
He never made me feel like I was something special.
He isn't really what I was looking for."
B
"Na na na na na"
A
"We've all got choices"
B
"Na na na na na"
R
"We've all got voices"
B
"Na na na na na."
A&R
"Stand up and make some noise.
Na na na na na"
B
"Stand up and make some noise.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the phone"
G
"He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even up the door.
He never made me feel like I was something special.
He isn't really what I was looking for.
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even up the door.
He never made me feel like I was something special.
Like I was special, cuz I was special.
Na na na na na."
After they finshed, the crowd went wild! Jason then walked over to Bella so they could introduce themselves. (Ok, I don't feel like writing all the he said she said so J-Jason and B-Bella for the convo.)
J-"That was awesome guys!
B, A&R-"Thanks!"
J-"Ok, so tell us about yourselves like your names and where your from."
B-"Sure, my names Bella and I'm 19."
A-"I'm Alice and I'm 18."
R-"I'm Rose and I'm 20."
B-"We're all from the small town of Forks, Wasinghton."
"Wait WHAT!?!??!?" Emmett whisper-yelled. "They're the other Forks band?! How the hell did we NOT met them before!" I was just shocked. They finshed their convo. Waved to the crowd and walked off stage. Before, they got to us, the director told us we were next and to follow him. We nodded and walked off. But, I turned around to see Bella waving and shouting "Good luck!" I just waved, smiled, and gave her a thumbs up saying awesome job. Then she turned around and went to the viewing side of backstage to watch us. While I turned around and walked off to get my intrsument.
Bella's P.O.V
That felt awesome! I think we did really good. Wait a sec, where are the guys? I turn around to see them walking off, they must be next. Edward turned around and I waved at him and yelled "Good luck!" Even though he wont need it. He waved, smiled his smile, and gave me a thumbs job that what I hope was an awesome-job thumbs up. So I turned around and walked up to Rose and Alice to watch the guys. "Great job you guys! That was awesome!" I said to them. They turn around and say "Thanks! You were awesome!" They smiled. I saw the guys on the other end of the stage. I met Edward's gaze so I smiled and waved. He smiled so wide that I would be able to see it a mile away and waved back. Just then Jason walked to center stage and introduced the guys. They all took a deep breath and walked onto stage. Emmett walked over to the drums and started the beat. Jasper and Edward then joined in and then Edward started to sing.
"This may never start,
We could fall apart.
And I'd your memory.
Lose your sense of fear,
Feelings insincere.
Can I be your memory?"
At this point Emmett and Jasper joined in. (Key: E-Edward A-All)
"So get back, back, back to where we lasted.
Just like I imagine.
I could never feel this way.
So get back, back, back to the disaster.
My heart's beating faster.
Holding on to feel the same."
E
"This may never start.
I'll tear us apart.
Can your enemy?
Losing half a year,
Waiting for you here.
I'd be your anything.
A
"So get back, back, back to where we lasted.
Just like I imagine.
I could never feel this way.
So get back, back, back to the disaster.
My heart's beating faster.
Holding on to feel the same."
E
"This may never start.
Tearing out my heart.
I'd be your memory.
Lost your sense of fear,
Feelings disappeared.
Can I be your memory?
A
"So get back, back, back to where we lasted.
Just like I imagine.
I could never feel this way.
So get back, back, back to the disaster.
My heart's beating faster.
Holding on to feel the same."
E
This may never start,
We could fall apart.
And I'd be your memory.
Lost your sense of fear,
Feelings insincere.
Can I be your memory?
A
"Can I be your memory?"
The crowd went wild! The guys were smiling wider then I have ever seen them! Jason of course can running over for the interview (Same thing as the girls. J-Jason E-Edward, b-Boys, you now the rest.)
J-Great job you guys!
B-Thanks!
J-So, tell us about yourselves.
E-Well, I'm Edward and I'm 18.
J-I'm Jasper and I'm 19.
Em-I'm Emmett!!! I'm 20 and awesome!
Count on Emmett to make a joke out of everything!!
J-So where are you guys from?
E-Well, Were from this town no one knows about. Forks, Washington.
What?!?!?! We all gasped. Edward looked back at me with a slight smile on his face and turned back to Jason.
J-Wow, so did you know Forbidden Beat before you came to the show?
E-No actually we didn't. It's a small town so we are just as shocked as you.
J-Well, good job you guys and thanks and good luck in the contest.
E-Thanks! See ya later!
Em-Vote for us! Cuz were awesome!!!!
We laughed as the guys left stage. They walked right up to us and at the same time we asked "You're the other Forks band?"
Well, this is weird, how the HELL didn't we met them before?!?!?! This. Is. Weird.
