Last Chapter
At some time, she started to breath slowly, so I opened my eyes, and looked at her, and I found her sleeping.
I kissed her forehead, and continued to hum the tune. I slept after a while, and felt a kiss on my lips like this morning. Knowing it was her, I smiled, and kissed her back.
After we kissed, I rested my forehead on hers. She pecked me once, and stood up. I pouted like a kid, and she giggled.
She held her hand out for me, and I took it.
"We need to go, it's getting late," I said.
"Okay"
Bella POV (It's finally her part of view!)
"OWH! Bella! You have got to bring this!" Alice chimed, holding out a very revealing bikini, that I would not want to describe. I was way too skimpy.
"No way, Alice! You bought that and said that you just wanted to just for the heck of it! I am absolutely not going to wear that!" I exclaimed, snatching it from her, and throwing it on my bed.
"But, Bell-aaa" she whined, stomping her feet like a child. I rolled my eyes, and continued packing my clothes in my suitcase. I was packing for our flight to Paris that was arranged for tomorrow morning, and Alice was through, so she decided on telling me what to bring, instead of chatting with Rosalie. Rosalie was still packing, but I'm sure that she has Emmett with her to... you know... I shuddered at the thought.
"Just bring it, Bella," Alice said, determined. I sighed and held my hand out for the bikini. She squealed in delight, and threw it at my face.
"But I'm not gonna wear it," I said. She muttered a 'whatever' and continued to rummage my closet.
Rosalie came in my room in five minutes, and walked to Alice.
I continued to pack, and Rosalie said, and Alice echoed her by screaming, "Bella! You have got to bring this!" that was Rosalie.
"BELLA!! BRING THIS!!" and that was Alice.
"Guys, whatever you want me to bring, just dump them on me, I'm sick of your screaming!" I said, and turned around, seeing an amazing dress.
It was a gorgeous red, empire waist, and an appropriate V-neck line. I smiled, and waved my hand, telling them to hand me the dress.
"Okay!" Alice squealed. I folded the dress neatly, and packed it in my suitcase. After I put it on my suitcase, a pile of clothes were dumped on me. I looked at Alice, and Rosalie. They looked at me, and smiled at the same time.
I sighed and packed everything. Most of them were skirts, dresses, boxers, Edward's shirts, and my own shirts. I was through with that, and closed the suitcase.
I collapsed on my bed and closed my eyes, and heard the door open, and a shuffling noise, so I put my arm over my eyes. I felt teeth nibbling my lower lip, and I smiled, knowing it was Edward. I opened my eyes, and pecked him once more.
"Ready for lunch, love?" he asked, brushing my cheek with the back of his hand. I closed my eyes, and put my hand over his.
"Yep," I said, kissing him once more, and stood up.
I grabbed his hand, and he chuckled.
"My mum is here, okay?" he said while we were walking to the stairs.
"What?! You didn't tell me! I need to go and change!" I shrieked, and ran to my room. Edward grabbed my hand, and made me stop.
"You look just fine, love, no need to change," he said, pecking me softly.
"Okay," I said, still dizzy from the slightest kiss.
We went down the stairs, and I tripped on the last two steps, only to have Edward to be my hero, wrapping his arms around my waist.
I smelled a delicious scent, and inhale deeply.
"Is that your mum's cooking?" I asked. He chuckled.
"Yes, Bella, she cooks in her free time," he answered, kissing the top of my head.
"Owh, I like her already," I said as we were approaching the kitchen. I quickly straightened my shirt, and fixed my hair. Edward took my hand, and smiled reassuringly to me.
"You look fine, Bella. In fact even more than fine, you're beautiful," he said, stroking my hair lightly. I blushed crimson red.
"Thanks, I guess," I said, looking at my feet.
We arrived at the kitchen, hand in hand, and saw Emmett on the chair, beside Rosalie, holding a spoon, and knife, banging them on the table like a little child. Rosalie liked that, so she didn't stop him. By that, I mean, Emmett, and his child ways.
"Emmett, dear, stop doing that, your going to put marks on the table," a very soft, and kind voice came from the oven. I looked curiously, and found a very beautiful woman, too young to look like a mother, caramel colored hair, and a slender form. She looked up to me and Edward, then back to me, and smiled. Her eyes were a gorgeous brown, and she had this motherly face on.
"Mom, this is Bella, Bella, this is my mother," Edward introduced us. I held my hand out for her to shake, and was surprised that she hugged me.
"Nice meeting you, Mrs. Cullen," I greeted, smiling at her enthusiasm.
"Oh, please, call me Esme, dear, and nice meeting the girl Edward keeps talking about," she said, and I blushed. Then she directed herself to Edward.
"You're right, she is beautiful, tell me when you ask, dear," she said, and then winked. Edward nodded slowly, and did I see him blush?! Wow!
"Okay, mom, just get back to your cooking," Edward said, pushing her back to the oven. She laughed, and nodded, kissing him on the cheek.
"Good to see you again, too, Edward," she said, and went back to cooking.
I sat beside Alice, who was beside Jasper, who was beside Emmett, who was beside Rosalie, who was beside Edward, who was beside no one. I smiled, and he pouted, patting the chair next to him.
I giggled, and skipped to the chair, surprisingly not tripping. I sat on the chair, and kissed his cheek once, and kissed the corner of his lips, making a smooch sound. He looked at me with mock sadness, and kissed me fully on my lips.
"Stop kissing there, kids, we have to eat," Esme said, putting the tray of food on the table. Emmett looked at us, and made a gagging noise. I blushed probably a thousand shades of red, but it didn't bother Edward that much, as he was just chuckling.
"Plus, we don't want to lose our appetites, seeing you guys suck faces," Emmett added, making Edward glare at him, and for me to roll my eyes.
"Whatever," Edward muttered, making me giggle at his face. It was extremely cute when he did that, so I kissed his cheek, and made him smile crookedly, which made me giggle.
"Guys, eat already," Rosalie sighed, making me and Edward to laugh. We got the food –which was extremely good- and ate it quickly. At some times, Esme would ask me, Rosalie, and Alice about some things, getting to know is, and I found out that she was the best mother anyone could ask for.
"Wow! That's great! You girls play instruments too? You could play with the guys some time, it would probably be the best song you kids will ever make!" Esme suggested. The idea wasn't really bad, we could play with each other, and I looked at Edward. He had this thoughtful look. He was probably thinking about it too, but I wasn't that sure.
When we were through with lunch, all of us, except for Esme, though went to the living room, and watched some more TV. We went to MTV, and Red September's new video was showing. It was shot about a month ago.
There was Alice, me, and Rosalie dancing freely on the set, and the guys were playing, looking at us lovingly. They probably knew the song by heart, so they were smiling at us too. Emmett was in the bass, obviously, so he got to look at Rosalie. Jasper was the best guitarist I knew, so he was playing crazily while adoring Alice dancing. I looked at Edward in the video, and saw that he was singing, looking at me the whole time. It was only when the fast part of the song came, that he had to look away, and to the camera, I remembered that was when the director, and Ty yelled at Edward to actually look at the camera.
When the song was through, I smiled, and looked at Edward, who had his elbow on the armrest, was staring at me intently. I blushed, and pecked his lips quickly.
"Love you," he said, and tucked a few stray hair behind my ear.
"Love you too," I whispered back.
"Aahh! Stop it! My eyes! They're too mushy, it burns!" Emmett cried like the child he is, covering his eyes with his hands.
"Good, now that you're through, I need Bella, Rose, come on, we need to plan out our outfits," Alice said with enthusiasm. I groaned, and Edward let go of me, sighing loudly.
"Good timing, girls, I need to talk to the guys about the gig," Ty said, walking into the room.
Edward POV. haha again
Just as the girls left, Ty started discussing about our gig.
"Okay, you know the gig's on December 12, right?" he started.
Not letting us respond, he continued.
"The songs that you played in the last gig were amazing, yeah, and there were alot of comments on blogs, shows, interviews, ect. ect,"he said.
We talked about what we were supposed to do in the gig, but we never got to the songs we were going to play.
"Dude, are we ever going to get to that part where we tell you the songs we want to play anytime now?!" Emmett roared, clearly out of boredom due to the discussion.
He sighed and rolled his eyes. "Yes, Emmett, I was going there," he breathed. Emmett smiled cheekily with triumph.
"Okay, I want to play Stolen, and Six Feet Under the Stars," I smiled. The songs were true, Bella has stolen my heart, and whenever we would go to our meadow, and look at the stars, it feels like we were six feet under the stars.
Whenever we would go to our meadow, it would either be for a picnic, or we just want to go there to be alone. The stars would twinkle brightly, and I would feel amazing just to be with her. Sometimes, we would be all pessimistic, and do talk about how the world would just turn into dust, but say that it would be fine, at least we have each other.
"Yoo-hoo, Edward, you there," Ty called out, waving a hand on front of me, making me realize that I was dazing off.
"Oh, sorry, where were we?" I asked, totally clueless.
Emmett laughed, and Jasper shook his head. I smiled at them sheepishly and suck in my chair. That made Emmett laugh even more.
"We were just agreeing on the songs, Edward, Emmett wants 'Just the Girl', and 'Dirty Little Secrets', and Jasper wants 'You and Me', and 'Brighter than Sunshine'," he explained. I nodded my head, and agreed with them.
"Come on, we have to practice the songs for you Edward, we haven't played that yet," Ty said.
"Can I tell the girls we're going to be in the studio?" I volunteered. He nodded, and waved me to go ahead.
I walked up the stairs, and knocked in Alice's room. This time, Bella answered. I smiled crookedly, and she giggled. After all these months, that smile still make her giggle. I smiled even bigger.
"Hey, there, beautiful," I said, kissing her lightly.
"Hi," he waved, wiggling her fingers in a girly manner. I chuckled, and kissed her again.
"Is there a reason you came, or is it just because you want to dazzle me all the way?" she said, crossing her arms jokingly. I laughed, and she joined in.
"Me and the guys are going to be in the studio, okay?" I said softly. She smiled, and nodded.
"Okay, bye, love you," she said, and kissed my cheek.
"Bye, love you too," I said.
I walked back to the studio, and Ty told us to start. I looked at Emmett who was at the drums, and Jasper who was with his guitar.
"Okay, start with Stolen Dashboard Confessional, guys," Ty called out.
He counted until three, and the song started with the bass of Emmett's drum set then the snare.
Then I started with Jasper.
You watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glamour have been replaced,
Another sun soaked season fades away
You have stolen my heart
Invitation only grant farewells
Crush the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight
You have stolen my heart
And from the bar room floor we are a celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we are, we'll sleep well
You have stolen
You have stolen my heart
I watch you spin around in the highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart
And it ended with that. I heard clapping from somewhere, and saw Ty.
"That was awesome, guys, for the first time playing that for a long time, that sure was good," he complimented.
"Okay, now for Six Feet Under the Stars All Time Low," he said.
And it started with Jasper, then me, then Emmett.
Time to lay claim to the evidence
Fingerprints sell me out
But our footprints washed away
From the docks downtown
It's been getting late for days
And I feel myself deserving of a little time off
We can kick it here for hours
And just mouth off about the world
And how we know it's going straight to hell
Pass me another bottle, honey
The Jaeger's so sweet
But if it keeps you around, then I'm down
Meet me on Thames Street
I'll take you out
Though I'm hardly worth your time
In the cold, you look so fierce
But I'm warming up
Because the tension's like a fire
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
But there's room for two
Six feet under the stars
I should have known better than to call you out
(On a night like this, a night like this)
If not for you, I know I'd tear this place to the ground
(But I'm all right like this, all right like this)
I'm gonna roll the dice
Before you sober up and get gone
I'm always in over my head
Thames Street
I'll take you out
Though I'm hardly worth your time
In the cold, you look so fierce
But I'm warming up
Because the tension's like a fire
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
But there's room for two
Six feet under the stars
Time to lay claim to the evidence
Fingerprints sell me out
But our footprints washed away
I'm guilty, but I'm safe for one more day
Overdressed and underage
Do you really need see an ID?
This is embarrassing as hell
But I can cover for it so well
When we're six feet under the stars
Thames Street
I'll take you out
Though I'm hardly worth your time
In the cold you look so fierce
But I'm warming up
Because the tension's like a fire
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
But there's room for two
Six feet under the stars
Six feet under the stars
Six feet under the stars
"That was good, though we need to tweak some things," Ty said.
We practiced, until we decided that we were good enough, which was about 5 in the afternoon.
Me, and the guys, and, surprisingly, Ty, went to the living room. We found the girls, and sat with them. I found Bella, and sat on the floor between Bella's legs. I felt her hands play with my hair, and I looked up to see her beautiful smile. I smiled back, and sat beside her on the couch.
"Why didn't you visit us?" I said in mock sadness, and pouted childishly.
"Because you were practicing, silly!" Bella said, and tapped my nose lightly. I wrinkled my nose, and she giggled. Another thing that made her giggle.
"What?"
"You're cute when you do that," she giggled some more, causing me to smile widely.
"Okay, guys! Time to sleep! We have to wake up early tomorrow!" Alice screamed at our faces at 10, and I rolled my eyes.
"Fine," all of us said in a chorus, and then laughed.
I took a shower, and just wore my boxers to bed. I found Bella sitting there, and she looked at me. I raised an eyebrow.
"I was excited for tomorrow, so I thought, maybe, I could sleep here?" she excused.
"Ah, good excuse, love," I said, and slid into the bed, and wrapped my arms around her. She always made excuses every night, and slept in the same bed as I, but I couldn't care less.
We both fell asleep at some time after we talked.
Sorry again, for that lame ending, but I am so tired. Soccer, gym, and school. Good thing it's saturday, though. REVIEW! And maybe you can comment on the songs, too, give feedbacks, or suggestions. And again, REVIEW!
