Author's Note:
POV: Bella
So, this will be the update for a while because my mom is an asshole and is taking up my laptop because I slept until 11:00. What teenager doesn't do that? I won't be updating soon because of that, unless done on my phone. She is taking every form of music away, meaning I will be bored out of mind. If updated on my phone, it'll be short because I don't have a word count. This one is very long and should keep you statisfied until I get ungrounded.
SONGS USED IN THIS CHAPTER:
Come and Get It by Selena Gomez
Dancin' Away with My Heart by Lady Antebellum
My Happy Ending by Avril Lavigne
Red by Taylor Swift
My Immortal by Evanescance
Impossible by Shontelle
"How many bottles have you had, Bella?" Edward asked as I walked up beside him to continue the dance off. I smiled.
"Two. Why thinking if you get me drunk you can bed me?" I asked. He rolled his eyes.
"Nope, not tonight," he said, winking.
"How many have you had?" I asked.
"None, I'm Sober Sam tonight," he said. I laughed. I heard another song start. I smiled. This was my favorite. I looked at him.
"I wrote this song about you a long time ago," I said, winking. He looked at me confused. All of the guys were his back-up dancers and all the girls were mine. It felt weird dancing without Rosalie. I looked behind me to see something. I automatically saw Alice. She smiled and winked. "Oh my god, when did you get here?" I asked, hugging her.
"I decided to come see y'all and got here just in time to hear you threaten a dance off," she said, winking. I giggled. I smiled.

And baby once I get it I'm yours no take backs.

Even if you knock it ain't no way to stop it
Forever you're mine baby I'm addicted no lie, no lie
I'm not too shy to show I love you, I got no regrets.
So baby whenever you're ready…..

Edward looked at me in shock when I was done. "So, I can take you back anytime I want?" he asked, smirking. I rolled my eyes. I turned to Alice.
"I did say I wrote that song a long time ago didn't I?" I asked, turning back to Edward. He playfully glared at me. I smiled innocently. I heard his song come on and he danced to it. He looked at me and winked. He then did exactly what I did eight years ago. How does he remember that? When it cut off, I did something I would've never done in my entire lifetime. I ran up to him and kissed him. I heard multiple gasps while Edward smiled into the kiss, making me smile as well. Those two beers must have gone to my head. I pulled back in shock. "You win, I'm sorry, I can't do this," I said, running off. I jumped in Alice's car. I saw she left her keys in the car and I turned it on. I saw Alice glare at me as I start backing up. I took one look at Edward's face, which was the biggest regret of my life. He looked pained. I sighed and pulled forward again. I turned off the car and threw the keys in the passenger seat. I got out and walked up to the DJ. He had my iPod unplugged and was about to hand it to me. I shook my head. "There is something I need to show him," I said.
"Do you want to play it on here?" he asked.
"Yes, I know where it's at," I said. He plugged it back in and I looked for the playlist. I found it and clicked on it. "Play this playlist when I tell you too, okay?" I asked, pointing to the playlist entitled 'Nothing but Heartbreak'. He nodded. I walked over to Edward. "Edward, there is something I best show you," I said. He looked confused but nodded. "This is what I wrote after you left," I said. He flinched but nodded. Alice looked at me and walked up to me.
"After these songs, do you want me to take you home?" she asked. Do I want to go home? I need to talk to Edward about something, so I can't.
"No, we need to talk," I whispered to her. She looked at Edward and nodded. I looked at the DJ guy and nodded. He started playing the song I haven't heard in forever. It's "Red". It played for what seemed like forever. I looked at him when the song finally ended.
"You regret me?" he asked, sadly.
"No, I regret letting you go away," I said. "My Immortal" started and he sat down on the hood of car. I sat down beside him and listened intently to the lyrics. It ended and Edward looked at me. I looked at the DJ and he paused the next song. I smiled at him and then looked back at Edward. He smiled sadly at me. I kissed his cheek. He smiled, sadly. "You ready for another one?" I asked. He hesitated but nodded anyways. Everybody had left, except the DJ and us. I got up and walked over to the DJ. "Go home, we got it from here," I said, grabbing my iPod. He nodded, packed up, and then left. "Let's continue this the old fashioned way," I said, smiling. I heard the chords to "Dancin' Away with My Heart".
I finally asked you to dance
On the last slow song
Beneath that moon that was really a disco ball
I can still feel my head on your shoulder
And hoping that song would never be over
I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be eighteen
And beautiful
And dancing away with my heart
I brushed your curls back so I could see your eyes
And the way you moved me was like you were reading my mind
I can still feel you lean in to kiss me
I can't help but wonder if you ever miss me
I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be eighteen
And beautiful
And dancing away with my heart
You headed out to college
At the end of that summer & we lost touch
I guess I didn't realize even at that moment we lost so much
I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be eighteen
And beautiful
And dancing away with my heart
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Away with My Heart
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
He looked at me with teary eyes. I grabbed his face with both of my hands. "Do not cry because of this," I said. Shock was written all over his features now.
"Bella, the love of my life is in pain because of something I was stupid enough to do," he said. I looked at him.
"Edward, I was in pain," I said. He looked at me. "Now, I don't really feel anything at all," I said. I kissed his cheek and played the next song. "This is called 'My Happy Ending'," I said, sadly. He looked at the ground and nodded.
Oh, oh…
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh….
Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
He was everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh, oh…
"My dumb friends?" he asked, smiling. I smiled back.
"Well, I really couldn't say dumb parents," I said. He nodded. "Do you miss them?" I asked.
"Yeah, occasionally, but then I remember what they said when I finally was discovered," he said.
"What did they say?" I asked. He looked at me.
"You won't want to know," he said.
"Tell me, Edward, if you want me to know," I said.
"That y'all were the worst thing that happened to that family," he said.
"I thought Esme liked me?" I asked. He looked out.
"She does, but she is also shoved up Carlisle's ass," he said. I giggled. "They're too blind to see the best thing that has happened to that family," he said.
"What is that?" I asked, smiling.
"Rosalie, Jasper, and you," he said. I smiled. I leaned my head on his shoulder. "Let's get you home," he said.
"Can you listen to the songs while driving?" I asked.
"There are more?" he asked. I looked at him.
"Only two," I said, getting in the passenger seat.
"I think I can handle two more," he said.
"First is pretty bad," I said, looking at what was up next.
"Fine, we'll listen to that one before I start driving," he said. I smiled and plugged my phone into his speaker. It started blaring the song called "Impossible".
I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love
I did, I did
And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did
And now, when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead and tell them
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the rooftops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy and my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be impossible
Impossible, impossible, impossible
Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worse
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know
Thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love and words
Empty promises will wear
I know, I know
And now when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them
Tell them all I know
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy and my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!
Oh impossible (yeah yeah)
I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love
I did
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy and my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible
I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love
I did…
"Did you seriously think I would tell everyone your secrets?" he asked.
"Did you?" I asked.
"No, I didn't," he said. "Bella, I barely talked to anyone," he said.
"You had a girlfriend," I said.
"Bella, it took me getting discovered to talk to anyone besides Emmett and Alice," he said. I sighed.
"I'm sorry for over reacting eight years ago," I said.
"I'm sorry for leaving eight years ago," he said. I smiled. He started driving away as soon as "I Hate Myself for Losing You" came on. I actually had fun today. I hadn't had actual fun since I went clubbing with Rose and Jasper.
So, we are on the right track! They apologized to each other because I mean, that is the first step in making a relationship work again. Some of y'all won't get an update for forever because of explanation in the first author's note. Review please? Tell me what you thought of this chapter! Until I'm ungrounded...
