A/N: Wow, I am so sorry for the long wait. Hopefully, this chapter will be worth it though.

I woke up the next morning from a great night's sleep. I'd had the most wonderful dream ever. In the dream, Emmett came into town for our birthday. I overheard Edward telling Emmett that he loves me. I dreamt that my friends took me to a great restaurant and an awesome bar. I also dreamt that I was offered a job in singing. But sadly, it was only a dream. I sighed and got out of bed. I took a quick shower, trying not to get overly sad about the fact that my dream was just that, a dream. I put on some comfortable clothes and walked out of my room towards the living room. I spotted Rosalie sitting on the couch and Alice lazing around in the arm chair next to her. I walked over and sat next to Alice.

"Why so glum chum?" she asked cheerfully.

"I woke up," I sighed.

She looked at me curiously, so I explained, "I had the best dream ever. It was my birthday and Emmett showed up in the morning and I heard Edward tell him something great. We all went to Volterra and some awesome hole in the wall bar and I got offered the best job ever. It seemed realistic."

Rose and Alice shared a look and Emmett walked in with coffee in hand. "What seemed realistic?" he asked.

"Bells, it is real. Jacob, the bar, the music thing," Rose said, smiling.

My eyes widened and I squealed. I got up and started dancing around the apartment. I pulled Alice up to dance with me and realized that she shouldn't be here. "I thought you had to work this morning," I said, scolding her.

"No! Do you really think that I would have missed last night over a few drinks? I think not," she laughed.

I rolled my eyes and shot a smile at her. My cell started ringing and I shimmied over to answer it. "Hello?" I answered happily.

"Hi. Is this Bella?" the deep voice asked.

"Yes, who's this?"

"Oh sorry, it's Jacob," he answered cheerfully.

"Oh, hey Jacob!"

The others perked up and ran over to listen. "Do you mind if I put you on speakerphone?" I asked. "My friends are making me a bit claustrophobic."

He chuckled and said sure. I pressed the speaker button and he spoke up again. "So we definitely have a spot for you Bella. You could be huge, the next big thing. We're ready to start recording with you and get some publicity. What are your plans for your schooling?" he asked.

"I actually haven't thought about that yet," I admitted shyly.

"That's fine," he said. "How about online college? How does that sound?"

"That sounds perfect!" I cheered.

"Okay, I'll get that arranged for you. Now, do you have a preference on where you would like to stay?" he asked. "I can set something up."

I opened my mouth to speak, but Emmett's voice came out instead. "No need Jake, she can stay with the guys and I; we have plenty of room."

"Okay then, well, now all that is left is that we will need to get you a stylist, and…a choreographer," he said.

"No need," Rose and Alice said together.

"What?"

"I've got styling down," Alice said enthusiastically.

"I took dance for pretty much my whole life, I think I've got choreography down," Rose stated.

I smiled widely at them. Jacob chuckled on the other end. "Well, okay then. How soon do you think you all can get out here?"

"Not soon enough," I mumbled.

"Give us a week," Alice replied.

"Alright that I can do. Okay, well, I'm going to get to work then and I'll see you in a week."

"Okay, bye Jacob," I said.

"Bye everyone," he said and hung up.

"Well I guess we have some packing to do then, huh?" I announced.

"Looks like it!" Alice cheered.

I smiled and nodded and she brought me to start packing again.

******************************************************************************

After a week of intense packing, tying up loose ends, and a lot of stress, we were finally on out way to southern California. We each took out own cars, filled to the brim with our things. Thankfully, I didn't have a lot of things, so my truck wasn't crammed. The ride there was the easy part. Leaving the apartment, however, was the hard part. Alice cried when we left, so hard that Rose and I finally had to drag her outside. I felt terrible for making them leave, but whenever I voiced that thought, they just yelled at me.

After two long days of driving, we made it to the guys' luxurious condo. Emmett, Jasper and Edward came outside upon our arrival and greeted us. We hugged them, I hugging Edward extra tight. They grabbed things for us and carried them inside.

"Bella, we are still waiting on your furniture to come in, so you are going to stay in my room and I'll stay on the couch," Edward said while putting my things inside my empty room.

"No, I'm not going to steal your bed from you Edward, I'll take the couch," I insisted.

"Oh my God, you two. Suck it up. Just share the bed. It's not that big of a deal," Rose snapped angrily.

I threw my hands up in surrender and Emmett laughed heartily. All of our things were taken up to our room and we were left to unpack.

EPOV

After helping the girls bring their things inside, I took a quick shower and thought about how great it would be to share a room with Bella, even if it was just temporarily. I got dried off and changed. I wanted to spend some time with Bella so I decided to go see if she needed help unpacking. I walked out of my room and down the hall towards hers. I got closer and heard a beautiful voice. It got louder and clearer as I got closer to Bella's room. I paused outside her door and realized that it was Bella! Her singing was so pure and beautiful. I stayed, standing outside the door and just listened.

All of a sudden, Alice was behind me. "You know," she started, "she'd probably sing for you if you ask."

"I wasn't listening, I just had to tie my shoe," I said and looked down at my bare feet.

"Yeah, sure you're not…" she trailed off. Then, she threw the door open and ran the other way.

The beautiful singing cut off and Bella looked up from packing. "Oh, hey Edward."

"Hey. I heard you sing Bella, it's…its just perfect," I sighed.

"Thanks," she mumbled and blushed a beautiful blush.

"You know, hearing you sing like that, I was wondering something…" I trailed off.

"And what were you wondering?" she asked curiously.

"Well, I have to say, it would be an honor to sing with you. Would you like to do a duet or something? It would be great variety for our record," I suggested nervously.

"Are you serious?!" she squealed.

"Yeah!" I cheered.

"That would be perfect! And actually, I wrote a duet that would be perfect," she beamed.

She pulled it out and showed it to me. It had beautiful lyrics and looked perfect, as she said.

"That'll be great Bells."

BPOV

Edward and I practiced the duet for a week, trying to get it perfect. We finally did and we scheduled the recording for the day after.

I was sitting on the couch next to Alice who was talking to Rose about some wedding plans. I was going over the lyrics in my head again and again. I couldn't wait to record with Edward the next day, but I couldn't help but be nervous. I hoped he would get the "subtle" hints in the song about my feelings for him. It wasn't like we could do anything even if he did get it though, he was still with Tanya. Speaking of the bitch, she happened to be on the phone with Edward. He was in the other room and I could see him walking around while talking to her. A few minutes later, he came rushing out of the room with a goofy grin on his face. Alice looked up curiously.

"What's got you so happy?"

She glanced at me quickly and looked up at him. "I just broke up with Tanya!" he cheered.

My eyes grew wide and I forced myself not to get up and dance around the room. "Aren't people supposed to be sad when they break up?" I asked calmly.

"Not when they break up with someone they are forced to be with against their will," he said happily.

"Oh! Well that's terrific then!" I cheered.

He nodded and ran to the other room to tell Emmett and Jasper I guessed. "Alright," I sighed, "It's decided, I'm telling him tomorrow after the recording session."

Alice and Rose's heads snapped towards me so quickly, it's a wonder that they didn't get whiplash. "Are you serious?" Rose asked excitedly.

I nodded and Alice squealed. I smiled at them. "How are you going to do it?" Alice asked curiously.

"I have an idea. It has something to do with the duet."

Alice nodded eagerly and waited for more. I, however, wasn't going to say anything more. I got up and told them that I was going to go to bed to rest my voice. They looked like they were going to fight but I silenced them with one look.

I was woken up the next morning by the same face that roamed my dreams all night. "Bella, we need to go to the studio, its time to wake up," Edward said softly.

I nodded and got up sluggishly. I took a shower to wake up. Then I ate some toast and brushed my teeth. When I finished, I met Edward, who was waiting by the door. He opened the door for me and we walked out to his car. He got in and drove us to the studio. I held back yawns the whole way there.

"Why are we going so early Edward?" I asked, suppressing yet another yawn.

"It's quieter in the morning. Also, this way you have the whole day to enjoy and not worry about anything else."

I nodded and we got to the studio. He got out and walked around to get the door for me. I thanked him and got out. We went inside and upstairs. We were greeted upstairs by Jacob who shook Edward's hand.

"Hey, I'll be replacing James today. You two can get set up and do a couple of run-throughs, then we can start recording."

We nodded and we sat down and did a couple of run-throughs and vocal exercises. After a few tries, we had it down again. "Alright Jacob," Edward called. "We're ready."

He nodded and we went inside. He started us and we sang our hearts out.

Edward: I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren't there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground
All the subways around create a great sound
To my motion fatigue: farewell
With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room

Bella: Time together is just never quite enough
Edward: When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
Bella: What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Edward: We need time, only time
Bella: When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
Edward: If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
Bella: So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
Edward: All the time, all the time

Edward: Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn't let me sign on?
All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights
I guess Ill never know why sparrows love the snow
We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow

Bella: So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time
Our time together is just never quite enough
Edward: When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
Bella: What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Edward: We need time, only time
Bella: When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
Edward: If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
Bella: So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
Edward: All the time, all the time.

Bella: Our time together is just never quite enough
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time.

We finished around lunch time and picked up. I was getting increasingly nervous while I picked up and got ready to go. Finally, Edward waited for me by the door and he led me through the studio. There was an empty silence, so I decided to take advantage of it.

"Hey Edward?" I started nervously.

He looked over at me, "Yeah?"

"Do you wish we'd fall in love?" I asked quoting the song.

"All the time, all the time," he sang.

I giggled at him and looked up at him, "Yeah, me too," I said honestly.

His head snapped up. "What was that?" he asked with a tone of disbelief.

"I said I wish we would fall in love too."

He looked at me with a hopeful face but didn't say anything. "You think I'm just quoting the song. Well, I'm not," I said honestly.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"I mean I'm in love with you. I have been for a long time," I said shyly, looking straight into his emerald green eyes.

He blinked several times before an enormous smile grew on his face, "I'm in love with you too," he said softly.

"Show me," I challenged, smiling widely.

And he did just that. He took my face gently in his hands, leaned down slowly and gave me the most loving, passionate kiss. I smiled into the kiss and somehow my hands ended up tangled in his soft bronze hair.

When we separated moments later, I was breathing heavily. "Do you believe me now?" he asked, his eyes shining with love.

I nodded breathlessly. He smiled. "Good."
