I do not own twilight, or any of the characters unfortunately.
:(
BTW; in this chapter, imagine Bella made up the lyrics to the song.
Imagine that it wasn't a real song to begin with.
Its more realistic that way .
Thank you (L)

I ran over to Alice as she dropped Esme's favourite vase. Her eyes clouded over and I watched her vision.
Bella's hand flew to her mouth and a tear trickled down her cheek as she saw the CD, photo and the envelope addressed to her I had left under her floorboards.
I took a step back and sat on the couch in a distant place.
It was only when Alice put her hand on my shoulder that I looked up at her. She was reading through the letter through Bella's mind. I shook my head and she leaned down and sat next to me.
"Edward, don't go to her tonight. Let it settle in." She said. I ignored her and got up.
I wouldn't let her see me, but I would go see her, whether she was awake or asleep.
I climbed up to her window after waiting outside for two hours waiting for her to drift into a deep sleep. I looked in and saw her laying comfortably with one of her arms above her head and the other hanging off the bed.
I chuckled and climbed into her room.
As I placed her right arm back onto the bed she shifted her weight and rolled onto her side, allowing enough room for me to lay in bed with her.
I debated with myself.
Should I ?
Shouldn't I?
As always I went with my heart and got into bed stroking the hair that was flowed across the pillow.
She smiled in her sleep and I thought my heart was about to start beating.
"Mmm Edward, Don't leave again." She whispered.
I stopped stroking her hair and froze waiting for her to open her eyes but her heart was still slow and calm. My mouth fell open and if I could have cried I would of.
She was asking me to stay and she wasn't even concious.
"Please" She added.
I knew at that moment, any small doubt I had about staying were wiped away, I needed to hug her again and kiss her soft lips. I needed her to tell me she loved me. As if she could read my mind she opened her mouth and started.
"Edward, I love you, forever."
I slowly and carefully picked up her right hand and brought it too my lips kissing the back of her hand.
It was amazing what this woman could do to me.
Even in her sleep.
"I love you too, always!" I whispered into her ear, kissing her hand. She gasped in her sleep and I saw a small tear escape her closed lids and was shocked.
Could she understand me? I decided to try something, I was ninety nine percent sure it wouldn't work but I had to try.
"Bella, love. Will you sing to me please?" I whispered, unsure if she would have stopped listening.
Calling out your name, your face is everywhere
I'm reaching out to you to find that you're not there
I wake up every night to see the state I'm in
It's like an endless fight I never seem to win
She stopped and squirmed her way closer to me. I smiled a smile that had two emotions in it. Happiness and undeniable sadness.
I had made her sing that, I had made her say those words, it made me sad that she was so honest about how bad it had got for her.
But then again, I had asked her, in her sleep to sing for me and she had and after she was done, she had scooted closer to me.
As I was thinking this though she threw her arm over my stomach and turned over so her stomach was laying on the bed and her left arm was laying across my stomach.
I wasn't sure how long I had laid there with her but as the sun started to rise I slowly slid out from underneath her and made my way to her window. She had said my name five times that night, all with long sighs after them. I closed my eyes and pushed her glass window upwards opening it.
"I love you Isabella Swan." I whispered as I slipped out her window into the early morning.
As soon as I was out of sight of the house, my phone rung. I groaned and took it out my pocket so see Alice's name across the screen.
"Yes Alice?" I sighed as I flipped it open.
"Edward, you need to wear something smarter then your usual sweater tonight! We're going to see Bella perform, she cant see you in, I MEAN, people can't see you in a sweater Edward." Alice scolded. I nodded my head and this pleased her. I chuckled as I imagined her seeing my action while she was at home. We hung up and I carried on running towards the house.
As I got in I froze.
What was Jasper's scent doing at the house?
Alice ran over to me and gave me a huge hug.
"Edward, don't be angry. I missed him." Alice said confidently with a huge grin on her face. I sighed and shouted out for Jasper.
He came down and I was suddenly calm.
"Hey bro." He said as he went to slap my hand.. I returned the gesture and ran upstairs towards the shower.
I ran to my room to get a towel and saw the simple, suit laying on my bed. This was way to formal for just an evening at a small club.
"Alice?" I questioned.
She came running up the stairs and smiled when she saw where my gaze was.
"Well, it's just incase she happens to.. see you?" Alice thought.
I rolled my eyes deciding there was no point in arguing.
I ran over to the towel rack and grabbed a towel, making my way to the bathroom.
As I closed and locked the door I was filled with an emotion that shouldn't have been there.
Hope?
Why was I hoping?
What was I hoping for?
And I had my answer..
I was hoping that for some strange reason Bella would look over to our table and notice us.
And smile.
