Hey guys! Sorry for the late update! So busy! Here's a new chapter
The Face on the Cover of the Magazine
BPOV
After a few days on tour, I had gotten used to it. Sleeping on a couch, living with only one bathroom, doing shows almost every night. Living the life. We fixed the bathroom problem by Alice buying a huge mirror to hang up in her room, so Rose and her wouldn't need the bathroom for their hair and make up. Edward, Jasper and Emmett traded off driving the bus each day and night. When Edward had to, I would sit up there with him, and talk to him for the three or four hours he drove. It was calming. I could do it all day. Edward and I worked on our song when he didn't have to drive. It was coming along quite fine.
We're in Houston, Texas right now, and we finally have a night off. Edward's taking me to the carnival that's just down the street from where we are staying. I have to be ready in like a half hour, so I quickly grabbed the clothes I was going to wear, and headed straight toward the bathroom.
I put on a pair of short light blue jean shorts, and a really cute tank top. I put my hair up in a messy bun, and put on a subtle hint of make up. I put a pair of sunglasses over my eyes, and left the bathroom. Edward was waiting for me, on the couch.
"Hello, gorgeous. Are you ready to go?" He smiled a crooked smile up at me, then stood up. I nodded, and he grabbed my hand. He had sunglasses on himself, with a blue, tight muscle shirt, and khaki shorts. He looked like a god.
We walked hand in hand, a few blocks to the carnival. It was packed, full of running kids, sweaty people, and couples.
It was starting to get dark, which was the best time to go to a carnival.
"Come on, I'm going to win you a prize." He smiled, and pulled me over to one of the booths. The booth he chose was the dart game, where you throw the dart at the balloons. He got three darts, and tried to hit one of the balloons.
Miss.
Miss.
Miss.
"Shit." He said under his breath.
"Lemme try." I said, taking his spot. I got three darts and threw them.
Hit.
Hit.
Hit.
"Piece of cake." I grinned at him. I picked out a little lion, and gave it to Edward.
"Thanks, Miss. Dart Queen." I laughed and slapped him with the lion.
Next was the ring toss.
We each got three rings at the same time and threw them. Edward got one, and I got all three.
"Winner!" The man behind the booth, said and handed me another stuffed animal.
"We should go to a game that I'm good at." He said with a smile after we left the ring toss booth.
He pulled us up to the game where you have the hit the hammer as hard as you can on the metal pad, and the little bar hits the bell at the top.
"No way." I groaned.
"This one I'm good at." He smiled, and gave the ticket person a few tickets. He took the big hammer thing, and with all his might slammed it on the metal part. Man did he look sexy when he did that. His muscles ripped, as the hammer hit the metal. The ding sounded, meaning he won. I laughed, as he turned around proudly. I clapped for him, and he took a mini bow.
"Which animal do you want?" He asked, looking at the huge stuffed animals at the very top.
"The bunny!" I pointed at the cute rabbit, with huge ears. The ticket lady, handed him it, and he gave it to me.
We decided to go back to the RV and leave our stuffed animals there.
About twenty minutes, we returned, and grabbed a bite to eat. I could just smell the grease sweating off of everything. We each got a funnel cake, and sat down at a little table.
"I haven't had one of these since I was a little kid." I said, and took a big piece off of the golden cake.
He laughed with a mouth full of funnel cake.
"I think you have a little something on your cheek." He took his finger that had a ton of powdered sugar, and smeared it on my nose.
I pretended to be shocked, and dipped my finger in the powdered sugar and smeared it all across his cheek. He smiled a devious smile, and put some more on my cheek.
"It is so on." I laughed, and took both my hands full of it, and rubbed it in his hair.
"That was cold." He glared at me, as I smiled a innocent smile.
He flicked some at me, and I flicked some back.
"Truce?" Edward said, realizing that his funnel cake doesn't have anymore powdered sugar left.
"Truce." I laughed, looking at my shirt. It was covered with white spots.
We quickly cleaned ourselves off, but Edward's hair still had a little bit of powder in it.
"Oooh, let's go on the Tilt-A-Whirl!" I said like a little kid, as Edward and I walked in front of it. He looked a little hesitant but eventually he gave in, and we got into those uncomfortable half circles.
I held onto his waist, as we started spinning, and man was it going fast. I was about to throw up! But not as bad as Edward was. His face was pale white, with his eyes closed, and he held onto the bridge of his nose.
Thankfully, the ride ended, and neither of us ended up barfing.
"You okay, babe?" I asked as he was walking a little tipsy. "You look drunk." I giggled.
"Let's sit down for a second." He let out really fast, and walked fast toward a bench. He sat there for a few moments, with his eyes closed. "Okay, I'm all better now." He looked back up at me with a smile.
"Who would've thought, the legend Edward Cullen, with super strength and an amazing voice, could get sick on the Tilt-A-Whirl." I joked, and grinned at him. He laughed with me.
"I'm glad we got a night off." I told him, after the laughter subsided.
"Me too. All we do now is do shows. I never get to have alone time with you anymore."
"It's kind of nice." I leaned my head on his shoulder, and sighed.
"Very nice." He agreed.
"This night has been perfect. It's like a fairy tale that came out of a movie."
"Well, let's keep this fairy tale going and take a romantic spin on the good ol' Ferris Wheel." He smiled as he stood up, and held his hand out to me. I grabbed it, and we headed toward the Ferris Wheel.
We got in one of the seats, and I swear every time you breathed, it would move.
"Oh, I forgot to mention. I'm terrified of heights." I told him, as the Ferris Wheel started to go up. We got to the very top and stopped, and that's when I started hyperventilating.
"Bella! Calm down." Edward soothed. "Just look at me." He said, and tilted my head toward his. I looked into his deep green eyes, and I immediately forgot about my fear of heights. I leaned in, and my lips captured his. Our lips moved forcefully but slowly so the cart didn't tip over. He pulled back to get a breath, and leaned his forehead against mine.
"I love you. So much." He whispered.
"I love you. So so much." I whispered back. I leaned back in the cart, and leaned my head on his shoulder. The Ferris Wheel went a couple more times around, then we got off.
We left the carnival, and slowly walked home, hand in hand of course.
"You know what I just realized?" I said, suddenly.
"And what's that?" He asked.
"We weren't recognized today."
"You're right. That's a first for me." He said.
"I'm starting to like Texas better and better." I chuckled.
We got back to the RV and everyone was already asleep. I quickly changed into a t-shirt and sweat pants, and Edward just wore a pair of flannel pajama pants. We snuggled into the bed, with our stuffed animals that we won, surrounding us.
"Good night, love." Edward whispered into my hair.
"Good night." I whispered back, not sure if he heard me.
