Edward's POV:

I stared complacently out towards the fresh light of morning painted across the trees, knowing I would have many to see together with Bella. My eyes are drawn back to the patio and the sun that had lit the pond. In a way, I found myself almost missing the night, along with the darkened hours Bella and I spent dancing and singing. I knew that I would remember this night for the rest of my existence, all because of the undying love that I had felt over and over again. I sighed softly and smiled. We spent the night learning more about each other, nothing had changed apparently. I kissed her forehead and murmured, "Good morning." She turned her body so that she is facing me. "Good morning." She replied and I smiled. We stayed in that position for a few minutes first then Bella got out from the bed. I raised an eyebrow at her and got up too. "Change." She replied and I grinned. "How about my clothes?" I asked and she grinned. "You go first. I'll figure out something." I went to her direction and kissed her before I went to the bathroom to change. I smiled on the way to her bathroom and stripped. I opened the door a bit and held my hand out. I felt some fabrics in my hand and pulled my hand back, while closing the door. I raised an eyebrow, This is my clothes. Where did she get it? I quickly changed and went out. As soon as I walked into her room, my eyes widen and my jaw fall open.

Bella is standing on the balcony, her hair billowing behind her; the sun shone on her hair. She wore a black strapless dress that ended just before her knees, completed with black sneakers. The strapless dress is made from lace, fitting perfectly on her body. I slowly closed my jaw and walked slowly to her direction. How was it that this sweet, loving and perfect girl belonged to me? I wound my arms around her waist and savored her luscious smell. I buried my face in her hair and smiled. How many times have I pressed my face to her chocolate locks and found sanctuary from the cold of my very existence? How many times have I run my fingers through these delicate strands and immersed myself in its lovely fragrance? Too many to count. And here it is still - a soft, elegant mane that I will always find comfort in, no matter the time or place. And her eyes. Her eyes, though golden like mine now, are still the same as they have always been. To be sure, I have always loved her big, brown eyes. But what I loved most about them was the impossible depths, the bottomless emotions that were displayed so plainly inside of them. Her eyes are so beautiful, so very expressive, and have always shone with more love and kindness that I once believed was possible. And they are still the same. Still so wide and deep, and still glowing with so much compassion that, even now, I could lose myself in them and never return from their impossible depths. Then I heard her thought inside my mind, I always wanted to share the sunrise with someone that I love. I kissed her hair and gently lifted her face to mine. "I always believed that the sun rises everyday for me to continue my life in this world. I always felt that my life is complete; I already have what I wanted. It was until I met you. I felt something that I never felt before, it felt like a rope pulling me to come to you. But I fought against it and held myself. When you came in, your blood tempts me, sings to me and I had to stop myself not to bury my nose into the crook of your neck. The control I had almost slipped away but I remembered my family. As soon as I arrived at home, I ran as fast as I could to the forest, trying to clear your scent from my mind." I shook my head and sighed. "And when I went to school, the day when I started talking to you, I realized that I can't ignore you any longer." I smiled ruefully and she caressed my cheeks. "And now you believed that the sun rises for both of us." She whispered and I nodded. I started to sing and smiled widely at her.

The walls between

You and I

Always pushing us apart

Nothing left but scars fight after fight

The space between

Our calm and rage

Started growing shorter

Disappearing slowly day after day

I was sitting there

Waiting in my room for you

You were waiting for me too

And it makes me wonder

The older I get

Will I get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I didn't know then it would hurt like this

But I think

The older I get

Maybe I'll get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this

Bella clapped and grinned at me. I grinned back at her and she laughed. I couldn't help but chuckle at her. She's beautiful when she is really happy.

The time between

Those cutting words

Built up our defenses

Never made no sense, it just made me hurt

Do you believe

That time heals all wounds

It started getting better

But it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you

I was sitting there

Waiting in my room for you

You were waiting for me too

And it makes me wonder

The older I get

Will I get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I didn't know then it would hurt like this

But I think

The older I get

Maybe I'll get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this

What was I waiting for

I should've taken less and given you more

I should've weathered the storm

I need to say so bad

What were you waiting for

This could have been

The best we ever had

The older I get

Will I get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I didn't know then it would hurt like this

But I think

The older I get

Maybe I'll get over it

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this

I'm just getting older

I'm not getting older

I'm trying to

I wish it didn't hurt like this

It's been way too long

For the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this

"Older? Really?" Bella giggled after I finished the song. I shrugged nonchalantly, "It's the only thing that came to mind." She shook her head and smiled. "It was nice though. I didn't mind to put that into my album." She nodded and I smirked. "So, does that mean I have exceeded the qualifications?" I bowed at her and she curtsied back. "Why yes, good sir. You have, without a doubt, exceeded the qualifications." Bella replied and I grinned. We eventually went out from her room to the living room downstairs, meeting the family. Bella grinned to herself and sat on the loveseat nearby. "What are you grinning at, Bells?" Emmett asked as he sits down across from her and she replied, "Nothing of great importance." Though her smile betrayed her. I narrowed my eyes slightly, "Are you up to something?" She faced my way and placed her finger in her lips, signaling me to be silent. I'm making Emmett to tell his obvious loss last night, she thought and I grinned together with her. I held out a hand for her and we made a deal. I raised an eyebrow and she nodded. The others are getting more suspicious in between our exchange. "Hey Emmett." Bella called as she leaned on to a cushion. "Yes Bella?" He answered and I smirked. "What exactly happened last night on the stage?" She asked and I saw Alice trying to suppress a laugh. Emmett glowered at Bella and mumbled, "I lose the guitar duel." Carlisle, Esme, Jasper, Rosalie and Alice raised their eyebrows. "Excuse me?" Jasper repeated, as if he didn't believe what Emmett had said before. "Louder, Em." Bella coaxed him and he repeated his words. "I. Lose. The. Guitar. Duel." They all laughed and I snickered. "Never thought that Emmett would lose a guitar duel, out of all competitions." Jasper said and Bella smirked. "Well, all the pretty girls do rock." Alice said and then I heard piano playing.

Bella's POV:

As soon Jasper finished speaking, I was seated infront of the piano already. Alice must've have understood my plan because she said the words exactly like the song I would play. After she said it, I played the opening notes.

[Rosalie and Alice]:

Uh, uh, uh, ah, uh, uh

I can do the pretty girl rock, rock

Rock to the pretty girl rock, rock, rock

Now what's your name?

[Bella]:

My name is Bella, I'm so very

Fly oh my, it's a little bit scary

Boys wanna marry, looking at my deri

And you can stare, but if you touch I'ma beri

Pretty as a picture

Sweeter than a swisher

Mad 'cause I'm cuter than the girls as with ya

I ain't gonna talk about it, baby you can see it

But if you want it, I'll be happy to repeat it

My name is Bella, I'm so very

Fly oh my, it's a little bit scary

Boys wanna marry, looking at my deri

And you can stare, but if you touch I'ma beri

Pretty as a picture

Sweeter than a swisher

Mad 'cause I'm cuter than the girls as with ya

I can talk about it, cause I know that I'm pretty

If you know it too, then ladies sing it with me

I kept an eye on Edward the whole time. He is smirking at me and I winked at him. He shook his head and I giggled. It's fun to tease the boys!

[Together]:

All eyes on me when I walk in

No question that this girl's a 10

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

My walk, my talk, the way I dress

It's not my fault, so please don't trip

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Aye, now do the pretty girl rock, rock, rock

All my ladies do the pretty girl rock, rock, rock

Do the pretty girl rock, rock, rock

Do the pretty girl rock

Now where you at

[Bella]:

If you're looking for me, you can catch me

Cameras flashing, daddy turned his head as soon as I passed him

Girls think I'm conceded 'cause I think I'm attraction

Don't worry about what I think, why don't you ask him?

Oh woah!

Get yourself together, don't hate

Jealous is the ugliest trait

I can talk about it, cause I know that I'm pretty

And if you know it too, then ladies sing it with me

[Together]:

All eyes on me when I walk in

No question that this girl's a 10

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

My walk, my talk, the way I dress

It's not my fault, so please don't trip

Get along with your pretty girl rock, rock

Still show me your pretty girl rock, rock, rock

All my ladies do the pretty girl rock, rock, rock

Alice and Rosalie are smiling oh-so-sweetly at their husbands and they only stared at them like the morons they are. Thought they have a brain.

[Bella]:

Sing it with me now

[Together]:

All eyes on me when I walk in

No question that this girl's a 10

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

My walk, my talk, the way I dress

It's not my fault, so please don't trip

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

All eyes on me when I walk in

No question that this girl's a 10

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

My walk, my talk, the way I dress

It's not my fault, so please don't trip

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Don't hate 'cause I'm beautiful

Oh woah!

We smiled smugly at the boys after we finished the song. I stood up with my sisters and propped my hands on my hips. "What did you wanna say just now, Emmett?" Alice asked him and he shrank back into his position and we all smirked. "That ought to teach you a lesson or two." I snickered and Esme shook her head, smiling. "You think?" Edward said and I raised an eyebrow at him. This is fun, way more than having a concert. I sized him up, his smirk didn't falter.

Edward's POV:

I quickly took the electric guitar, Emmett the drums and Jasper the bass. I plugged it to the amplifier at the same time with Jasper. It was time for payback at the girls. I started the opening notes.

[Emmett]:

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Top down in the summer sun

The day we met is like a hit-and-run

And I still taste it on my tongue

(Taste it on my tongue)

The sky was burning up like fireworks

You made me want you

Oh so bad it hurt

But girl in case you haven't heard

Emmett turned his body around before I started the chorus, ready to turn and jump at a second notice. We wouldn't, at any condition, lose to the girls.

[Together]:

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

Forever is over

We used to kiss all night

Now it's just a bar fight

So don't call me crying

Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing (oh yeah)

Would make me say

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

But now it's over

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

I let Jasper took the next verse, because I have done a lot of singing at the concert last night. I'm trying to be generous around here.

[Jasper]:

Hot sweat and blurry eyes

We're spinning round

On a rollercoaster ride

The world stuck in black and white

You drove me crazy

Everytime we touched

Now I'm so broken that I can't get up

Oh girl you make me such a lush

[Together]:

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

Forever is over

We used to kiss all night

Now it's just a bar fight

So don't call me crying

Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing (oh yeah)

Would make me say

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

But now it's over

[Edward]:

All the time I wasted on you

All the bullshit you put me through

Checking into rehab 'cause everything we had

Didn't mean a thing to you

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

But now I'm sober

[Together]:

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

Forever is over

We used to kiss all night

Now it's just a bar fight

So don't call me crying

Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing (oh yeah)

Would make me say

I used to be love drunk

But now I'm hungover

I'll love you forever

But now it's over

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Now it's over
I still taste it on my tongue

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Now it's over

We smiled smugly back at them. Emmett came to stand with us and we smirked. "Look who is smiling right now." The girls stood on the balls of their feet and faced us, mate to mate. I keep my smirk intact as Bella faced me, her hands on her hips. "Want to know who?" Bella said, an eyebrow raised. The intent is clear—she is challenging me and I had no qualms to meet her challenge. My smirk grew wider as I stared at her. Only a half a moment later, Bella's back suddenly stiffened as her nostrils flared almost imperceptibly, and I knew she understood. "Duet." We said together and she grinned. "Ladies first." Jasper said, the good Southern. They smirked, took the instruments and set the microphone.

[Rosalie]:

State the obvious

I didn't get my perfect fantasy

I realized you love yourself

More than you could ever love me

So go and tell your friends

That I'm obsessive and crazy

That's fine

I'll tell them you're gay

[Together]:

By the way, I hate that stupid old pickup truck

You never let me drive

You're a redneck, heartbreak

Whose really bad at lying

So watch me strike a match

On all my wasted time

As far as I'm concerned you're

Just another picture to burn

Rosalie is banging her head in time with the drum beat and Alice is getting ready for her turn in the second verse. Bella is giving them a chance; she's done a lot of singing last night.

[Alice]:

There's no time for tears, I'm just sitting here

Planning my revenge

There's nothing stopping me

From goin' out with all of your best friends

And if you come around

Saying sorry to me

My daddy's gonna show you

How sorry you'll be

[Together]:

'Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck

You never let me drive

You're a redneck, heartbreak

Whose really bad at lying

So watch me strike a match

On all my wasted time

As far as I'm concerned you're

Just another picture to burn

Even now Esme and Carlisle is watching at them with a proud smile on their faces. I shook my head, they could be a tad too proud at times.

[Bella]:

And if you're missing me

You better keep it to yourself

'Cause coming back around here

Would be bad for your health

[Together]:

By the way, I hate that stupid old pickup truck

You never let me drive

You're a redneck, heartbreak

Whose really bad at lying

So watch me strike a match

On all my wasted time

In case you haven't heard

I really, really hate that stupid old pickup truck

You never let me drive

You're a redneck, heartbreak

Whose really bad at lying

So watch me strike a match

On all my wasted time

As far as I'm concerned you're

Just another picture to burn

Burn, burn, burn

Baby burn

You're just another picture to burn

Baby burn

They let the last notes hung in the air and throw their head back. We cheered at them and they smiled. "Nice job!" Jasper complimented as they stood infront of us. Alice gestured to the instruments, "Your turn." We, the boys I mean, grinned and walked to the instruments.

Bella's POV:

Edward took the electric guitar and sat on the stool near the piano. I raised an eyebrow, what the hell is he doing? He smiled at me and Jasper started to play a song. From the sound of it, I think this would be a sad song.

I can't remember when it was good

Moments of happiness elude

Maybe I just misunderstood

All of the love we left behind

Watching the flashbacks interlude

Memories I will never found

So I'll love whatever you become

And forget the reckless things we done

I think our lives have just begun

I think our lives have just begun

And I'll feel my world crumbling

I'll feel my life crumbling

I'll feel my soul crumbling away

And falling away

Falling away with you

I could feel my jaw trembling as they finished the second verse. Could a song be as heartfelt and filled with a lot of emotion as it already is? I could feel my dead heart clenched with sadness throughout the first verse.

Staying awake to chase a dream

Tasting the air you're breathing in

I know I won't forget a thing

Promise to hold you close and pray

Watching the fantasies decay

Nothing will ever stay the same

All of the love we threw away

All of the hopes we cherished fade

Making the same mistakes again

Making the same mistakes again

And I'll feel my world crumbling

I'll feel my life crumbling

I'll feel my soul crumbling away

And falling away

Falling away with you

All of the love we left behind

Watching the flashbacks intertwine

Memories I will never find

Memories I will never find

I choked as the words sunk into my head. I ran to Edward and hugged him tightly, whispering, "Don't you ever think of death again." He chuckled and kissed my head. "As long you're with me, I won't." He promised and I sighed in relief. I could feel the sensation of crying, but nothing happened. I hadn't cried in a long time. No, I won't cry anymore because my life is already perfect. I sighed contently and smiled at my family. It is such a relief to be surrounded by your family; it's good to know that you would have someone to lean on when you can't seem to hold yourself anymore. Edward smiled at me, while he stared at the family that he is with for some time. He is obviously thinking the same thing like me, because he smiled wistfully at all of them. My life couldn't be anymore perfect than this that.
