Chapter 10: Some Things Never Change
Edward Pov:
I walked over to Rosalie. She was talking to Esme. I tapped her on the shoulder. "May I have this dance?" I asked Rosalie as Somebody's Hero by Jamie O' Neal came on. It was a good country song.
Rosalie put her hand and we began to dance. We began to Tango with a bit of waltz thrown in there.
She's never pulled anybody from a burning building
She's never rocked Central Park to a half a million fans, screaming out her name
She's never hit a shot to win the game
She's never left her footprints on the moon
She's never made a solo hot air balloon ride, around the world,
No, she's just your everyday average girl (but)
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her baby with a skinned up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
She didn't get a check every week like a nine-to fiver
But she's been a waiter, and a cook and a taxi driver
For twenty years, there at home, until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life's ambition
But now her baby's movin' on, and she'll soon be missin' her
But not today, those are tears of joy runnin' down her face
"Come on Edward put some moves in it!" Alice yelled from across the room. I spun Rosalie out quickly then back in and caught her in a dip. "Is that what you mean Alice?" I called back.
I heard laughter around the room as we continued dancing.
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest
It hurts to let her baby go down the aisle she walks right by
Looks back into her mother's eyes
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
Thirty years have flown right past
Her daughters' starin' at all the photographs
Of her mother, and she wishes she could be like that
Oh, but she already is
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her mother in a rockin' chair
She runs a brush through her silver hair
The envy of the nursing home
She drops by every afternoon
Feeds her mama with a spoon
And that smile lets her know
Her mother's smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero
As the song finished I dipped Rosalie then pulled her into a hug. "That was fun." I stated as we walked off the dance floor. Slow Down Sister by Lady Antebellum began to play.
Emmett and Alice were doing some random dance to this song.
Slow down sister cause I just can't love ya
But I just can't get you off my mind
I ain't your fool, I'm not falling
I'm not falling in love with you
I play by my rules
And believe me
You don't want me too close to you
And even though you look so fine
I've been on this broken road one too many times
So slow down sister cause I just can't love ya
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh and Lord knows I need ya
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line
I've heard people say
That I'm crazy
That I'm crazy for avoiding you
But honey I got my freedom
And my reasons
All the reasons for what I do
But that last kiss just did me in
And I don't wanna look at you as something
More than a friend
So slow down sister cause I just can't love ya
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh and Lord knows I need ya
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line
"Hey Love you enjoying Alice and Emmett's performance?" I said pulling Bella into my arms and rested my head on her shoulder as everyone watched Alice and Emmett. Emmett then spun Alice round in circles quickly. Then he stopped as the words 'Slow down sister' were sung.
Oh slow down sister
I've got to make you mine
Oh all I'm asking for is just a little time
A little more time
So slow down sister cause I just can't love ya
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh and Lord knows I need ya
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line
Jasper and Rosalie began to slow dance on the dance floor to Britt Nicole's Feel The Light.
Today today you wanna run away now
You break try to keep it together
Love, love is all you need
You're a queen yet you've never know it
Life has come and left you blinded
Stole your smile and left you cryin
It's now you fault but
shame is all you got now
It was nice to see Jasper and Rosalie getting along. Rosalie was wasn't being her vain self so Jasper could finally be relaxed and calm and enjoy himself. Bella began humming the song. I wanted her to sing because I had never heard her sing before. I had Bella wrapped up in my arms and I swayed us gently from side to side along to the music.
Your heart is tangled up in silence
It's time to let go and feel the light
You'll find you're not alone
I know it's easier to hide
but you gotta let go and feel the light
Let go and feel the light
Be brave, brave
Waters all around you
I'll stay try to keep you from
sinking down
Love, love is on your side
It's stronger then you'll ever know
So many years of quiet
Building up like a fire inside
your minds a war
get out, get out and live for more
There's so much more
Live for moreeee
Your heart is tangled up in silence
It's time to let go and feel the light
You'll find you're not alone
I know it's easier to hide
but you gotta let go and feel the light
Let go and feel the light
Be brave, brave waters all around you
I'll stay try to keep you from
sinking down
Jasper then walked up to the band equipment and set up a few things. We had to perform now. Emmett and I walked up to join Jasper. I grabbed one of the electric guitars while Emmett grabbed the other. Jasper was at the microphone.
"Are you guys ready for some Summer Nights?" Jasper said in his Texan accent. One of the band members played the drums. Jasper began to sing Summer Nights by Rascal Flatts
Ha ha ha ha ha
Its summer nights, babe!
Woo! Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on ladies, it's time to pop that top
And fellas, I know you're ready to rock
We went crazy cooped all winter long
And school is out, so let's get it on
Flip flop tans and some white sand, I know the perfect spot
Well, the sunset better set soon
So we can get in the mood
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
A-come on, oh yeah, yeah
Jasper sent a wink out to Alice. This song was interesting. Bella was watching us play the song. She was standing with Alice, Angela and Rose. I kept playing the guitar.
Now fellas, you better watch your step
Don't let them teeny French bikinis make you lose your breath
Back to the ladies, y'all keep doing y'all's thang
'Cause everything about you makes me wanna scream
The sun is getting low, there it goes
Here we go, here comes the moon, yeah
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
Emmett and I did a small guitar solo. Ok we were showing off a bit. It didn't take us long to learn how to play the guitar we could pick it up quickly. Jasper was counting out the beats in his head to know when to come in singing.
It's a party down in Padre
Big bonfire on the beach
It's Coronas in Daytona y'all
Where it's wild and it's free
Everyone around us was clapping along with the beat. I stopped playing for a few seconds and just let the drum beat come through and also the bass. Then Emmett and began to play again.
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
A-come on
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody's feeling sexy
Holler if you're ready for some summer nights
Yeah, oh, are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
For some summer nights
Yeah baby
Summer nights!
It's summer nights
Come on!
As the song finished I looked over at Emmett and we began to laugh I really should do this with them more often.
Bella and Alice walked over to the microphones. Bella looked terrified. Alice shooed us off stage. Bella went over to the microphone where Jasper was before. A backing track began to play.
Bella opened her mouth to sing. I had never heard Bella sing before. When she did she had the voice of an angel.
Oooh
I need to find somebody who can't sleep at night
Without holding me without holding me tight
I want someone who sees me all the time in their dreams
And then wakes up thinking just of me
Spent time on my own
Spent time being free
Now I just wanna be
Overloved
Over needed
Over wanted
Over missed when I'm away
Overloved
Over dreamed of
Over cared about
Over everything
I'd give anything to be overloved
Oooh
I want someone who can't wait to kiss me again
Even though it's been a minute since they last did
Want someone who loves love songs
And dedicates them to me ooh
And two loving arms never out of reach
Been fine all alone
Did fine being free
This time I wanna be
This time I wanna be
Alice was singing backup so Bella wouldn't be too nervous. I was so mesmerized by Bella's voice. I just stared as it flowed out across the dance floor. I wanted her to sing forever so I could hear it nonstop over and over again and again. Put it on repeat. She had the most beautiful voice I had ever heard in my entire existence.
Overloved Overloved
Over needed over needed
Over wanted oooh
Over missed when I'm away
Overloved Overloved
Over dreamed of over dreamed of
Over cared about (Oooh)
Over everything
I'd give anything to be overloved
Want someone to talk to me with talk so sweet
Want someone who's there to share their world with me oh baby
I've been too lonely for too many nights
This time I need someone here in my life
This time I want someone holding me tight
Been under kissed, under touched
Now I just wanna be
Bella was staring into my eyes the entire time. She looked nervous about singing to a crowd. As she got into the song she grew more confident. This song had some great meaning. It was about Bella wanting to more loved. I just hoped she knew that I gave her most of the things the song was asking for.
Overloved Overloved
Over needed over needed
Over wanted over wanted
Over missed when I'm away
Overloved Overloved
Over dreamed of over dreamed of dreamed of
Over cared about
Over everything (I would give everything I would give up everything)
I'd give anything to be Overloved
Oooohh Overloved
I just wanna be
Overloved
By someone who's over in love with me
Over kissed over touched over missed
Overloved
Bella dragged out the final note. I stood there shocked. I walked over to Bella. "Love why didn't you tell me you could sing?" I asked pulling Bella into my arms. She looked down and blushed.
"I really can't. Alice dared me to sing a song. I didn't want to actually." Bella admitted. I pulled her into my arms. "Well I was absolutely mesmerized by your singing it was absolutely beautiful." I told her honestly. She blushed a deeper red.
To kiss and tell
It's just not my style
But the night is young
And it's been awhile
I started to laugh at one of Bella's song choices. Alice grabbed Bella and they we dancing around the dance floor. Some of our other guests went to join them. Tanya tried to get me to dance with her. Bella saw my discomfort and pulled me along where her and Alice were.
And she broke my heart
Broke it right in two
And it's fixing time
But I'm feeling like I'm finally ready to
Find, find somebody new
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
And maybe make a little magic in the moonlight
Don't wanna go too far
Just to take it slow
But I shouldn't be lonely in this big ol' world
I wanna kiss a girl
It's that moment when
You start closing in
First you're holding back
Then surrendering
Alice, Bella and I were dancing randomly. When the song said kiss a girl I would kiss Bella then Alice would kiss her cheek. It was fun. Never had I had this much fun with my family.
It can start a fire
Light up the sky
Such a simple thing
Do you wanna try?
Are you ready to
Say goodbye
To all these blues?
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
And maybe make a little magic in the moonlight
Don't wanna go too far
Just to take it slow
But I shouldn't be lonely in this big ol' world
I wanna kiss a girl
'Cause, baby, tonight
It could turn into the rest of our lives
Oh yeah
Are you ready?
(Are you ready?)
Are you ready
(Are you ready)
To cross that line?
Put your lips on mine
Ooh, put your lips on mine, baby
Do you wanna try?
Are you ready to
Say goodbye
To all these blues?
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
And maybe make a little magic, baby
Don't wanna go too far
Just to take it slow
Don't want you to be lonely
I shouldn't be lonely
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
And maybe make a little magic in the moonlight
Don't wanna go too far
Just to take it slow
But I shouldn't be lonely in this big ol' world
I wanna kiss a girl
Bella placed a loud kiss on my lips and continued dancing playfully with Alice.
I said I wanna kiss a girl
Whoa ho, whoa ho
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
I wanna make a little magic
Out under the moonlight
Ooh I wanna kiss you now
"Alright everyone grab a partner this a romantic song to share with someone you deeply care about." Alice said grabbing the microphone then going over to Jasper. I pulled Bella into my arms as the song began.
The first time I looked in your eyes I knew
That I would do anything for you
The first time you touched my face I felt
What I had never felt with anyone else
I wanna give back what you've given to me
And I wanna witness all of your dreams
Now that you've shown me who I really am
I wanna be more than just your man
We danced closely at all times. I saw Charlie dancing with Sue. Jacob dancing with Leah. Alice and Jasper. Emmett and Rosalie. Angela and Ben. Renee and Phil. The song was romantic. We were so close but not as close as we were that day in the meadow. We slow danced to I Wanna Be Your Everything by Keith Urban.
I wanna be the wind that fills your sails
And be the hand that lifts your veil
And be the moon that moves your tides
The sun coming up in your eyes
Be the wheel that never rusts
And be the spark that lights you up
All that you've been dreaming of and more
So much more I wanna be your everything
When you wake up I'll be the first thing you see
And when it gets dark you can reach out to me
I'll cherish your words
And I'd finish your thoughts
And I'll be your compass baby when you get lost
I wanna be the wind that fills your sails
And be the hand that lifts your veil
Be the moon that moves your tides
The sun coming up in your eyes
Be the wheel that never rusts
Be the spark that lights you up
All that you've been dreaming of and more
So much more I wanna be your everything
I'll be the wheel that never rusts
And be the spark that lights you up
All that you've been dreaming of and more
So much more I wanna be your everything
I wanna be your everything
I wanna be your everything
"You are my everything. Mrs. Cullen." I said lowering my lips to Bella's.
