Bella*POV
(haha I haven't done just Bella in a little while huh? I'm sorry for the small time skip but winter needed to come)
One Month later
I walked over to the talent show sign up list signing my name and Jessica's. She's going to be so excited I had heard her sing the other day.
~Flashback~
I walked into the bathroom to hear someone softly singing
Hey Stephen
I could give fifty reasons why I should be the one
You Choose
All those other girls
Well they're beautiful
But would they right a song for you
I walked in from standing at the doorway and they stopped. I walked fully into the bathroom to see Jessica brushing her hair.
She looked at me wide eyed and I clapped "Why'd you stop you have a beautiful voice?" she looked down blushing "Aww Jess is embarrassed come on I'll make it better!" I laughed throwing my arm over her shoulder walking her to third period.
~End Of Flashback~
I knew she was a little shy but I have a plan.
I went over to her to see her talking to Mike. Mike was smiling and she was frowning a bit. I walked over looping my arm with hers I gave Mike a little wave and I dragged her off. She stared at me like I was crazy when we reached the drama department.
I grabbed her hand and we walked through the doors and I pulled her on stage. She looked scared as you could slightly see faces through the blinding light. DARNIT! I hoped they would at least try to be invisible! I waved to Edward and he gave me a smile.
I turned to Jessica and she was just standing there looking mortified. I tapped her
"Jess pretend there not there ok, it's just me and you!" she nodded and I smiled "Do you know Out From Under?" I whispered to Angela who was sitting at the orchestra bed playing the piano.
She nodded and started to play softly.
I breathed out and began to sing…
Breathe you out
Breathe you in
You keep coming back to tell me
you're the one who could have been
and my eyes see it all so clear
It was long ago and far away but it never disappears
I try to put it in the past
Hold on to myself and don't look back
I gave Jessica a sign trying to tell her to start singing with me.
She nodded and her voice a little lower in pitch than mine blended perfectly.
I smiled Just as I suspected.
I don't wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I'm out from under
I don't wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I'll get it all figured out
When I'm out from under
So let me go
Just let me fly away
Let me feel the space between us growing deeper
And much darker every day
Watch me now and I'll be someone new
My heart will be unbroken
It will open up for everyone but you
Even when I cross the line
It's like a lie I've told a thousand times
And part of me still believes
When you say you're gonna stick around
And part of me still believes
We can find a way to work it out
But I know that we tried everything we could try
So let's just say goodbye
Forever
Our voices rung out and everyone clapped. I squealed and grabbed Jessica's hands giving them a squeeze as we both jumped in a circle. Ms. Deed (Well I think that's her name lol) stood up and announced
"You're in come on Tomorrow 7:30 to perform."
Then she walked off. Jessica stopped "What have you done?!?!" she screeched. I patted her back "It'll all work out I already know what we're going to sing I have it all worked out. Alice made us these beautiful red dresses. It will be fine I promise." She nodded and I grinned. I jumped off stage and she followed shortly behind. I walked over to Edward. He just grinned and I leaned into him "What are you grinning about?" I teased "Oh nothing!" he said in a sing-song voice.
I cocked a brow "Like I believe that!" I scoffed "You don't have to believe it all you have to do is follow me." I rolled my eyes but held his hand as he dragged me through the corridors. When we got outside I stopped and looked up to see My Baby! My beautiful Porsche which I left over Alice's! I screamed and ran to it "MY BABY!" I sat on top of the front and hugged the dashboard. A couple people gave me weird looks but I just continued murmuring to my baby. Edward came up behind me pouting. I looked at him confused
"I thought I was you're baby!" he dry sobbed. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked him in the eyes "You're my man!" I rolled my eyes pecking him before going back to hugging the dashboard of my car. I could feel stares on my back. I turned around
"Uh Hello get to class as you're President I can write all you're asses up don't you see I'm having a moment with my baby." I yelled and they all scurried off. I smiled a giggle coming from my lips "I love being President!" I got up straightening my long sleeved top and my skinny jeans wrapping my scarf a little tighter. I shivered "Who knew it got this cold in Los Angeles!" I wrapped an arm around Edward leaning into him. He chuckled "Not as bad as Forks!" he replied smiling down on me "Yep true!" we walked inside and they were still standing there staring "We'll the staring ever stop!" I groaned. Edward untangled us and just held my hands
"Probably not." He kissed my cheek and leaned towards my ear "Laters Baby!" he whispered walked away. He threw me a wink over his shoulder and I sighed blushing.
Yep I'm definitely in love with him and I'm not afraid to say it!
Ok that was a lie I'm terrified!
I walked to Spanish and it passed quickly.
Do I love him?
Will I tell him?
No I can't he won't love me back!
Yes he will!
No!
Yes!
No!
Yes!
I jumped up from my seat and the bell rung just as I stood up.
I walked to the lunchroom doors waiting for Edward. He walked up to me and noticed my distress right away "What's on you're mind babe?" he leaning on the wall beside me "Just thinking about something important!" I sighed "Probably me!" he said playfully "Sadly, Yes!" I blurted out. He frowned and we walked in getting into the lunch line.
Everyone still stalked us with there eyes and I groaned looking up at him. He had a deep frown line because his eyebrows were pushed together. I reached up and smoothed it out and kiss his cheek "In a good way..." I smiled and he seemed to like that because he smiled too.
I turned around to see everyone staring and I pulled at my hair running my hands through it wildly. Edward interrupted my stare down with all the people of Forks High by wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me away. I glared at them but turned away sitting in between Rose and Alice. Alice hugged me and I looked around
"Where's Emmett?" I said.
Then a booming voice startled me "Did someone call my name!" I turned around and jumped out of my seat. It was all in slow motion like when the people are going in slow motion and Olympic music is playing and they hug all happily but no he missed me. I tried to jump him but his foot caught my ankle and we both went tumbling down. I screamed and banged on his chest "Get off you heavy bum!" he pouted "Now you hurt my feelings!" I screamed again he was freaking like 300 pounds I sware! He just layed on me all comfortable "Get the hell off!" I screeched and he rolled off me laughing. We both got up and I hugged him reluctantly "I love you Dork Face!" I laughed into his massive chest and he pulled away snapping his fingers in a Z formation "Oh no you didn't!" he said flipping his imaginary hair. I laughed and then everything seemed to pass in a daze then I was home in my bed looking up at the ceiling.
Love?
I groaned I have fallenn in love in under three weeks now for the telling him part.
Jessica's POV
One Month Later...
I couldn't believe Bella and I were singing up on stage in front of people the talent show is tomorrow and Bella told me to come over to her house sharply at 8:00 am. I closed my eyes and drifted dreaming of the stage and me all alone. I faintly heard an annoying buzzer my eyes fluttered open and I slammed my alrm clock jumping out of bed putting my clothes on. I washed my face and brushed my hair running downstairs grabbing an apple and out the door.
I drove to the house and admired it. I stepped out of my car and pressed the buzzer "It's Jessica!" I said slowly.
The gate open and I stepped back into my car. I rode up to the front door and Bella came out in these cute froggy pajamas. She grabbed my hand and took me inside. We went upstairs and Alice was waiting for us scissors in hand. I looked at her and she ordered me to sit down. I did as she asked a little scared of what she was going to do. She pulled strands of hair in front face and I looked through them into the mirror of Bella's vanity. She cut it to a couple centimeters above my eyebrow. I gasped as I looked into the mirror my auburn hair was past my shoulders and I had bangs. I squealed "Ah ah ah no squealing until I'm done." She growled and I shut my mouth.
She started to twist my hair on the left side and twisted it until she went around my whole front. It was twisted to the middle of my head and in a rubber band while the rest of my hair flowed freely past my shoulder. She curled my hair then placed a pretty tiara on my head. I looked at her tears filling my eyes. I turned towards her and hugged her. She patted my back and cooed at me. I looked at Bella to see she had the same hairstyle. She then curled my bangs and my hair was done.
Bella walked over "You look gorgeous!" she gushed. I sat back down and they worked around me doing my makeup and my nails and I actually felt like a princess. I opened my eyes and gasped at the girl in the mirror. I hardly believed she was actually me she seemed more like a dream. Her hair had red streaks in them that were sprayed and a sparkle to her skin and a slgiht blush on her skin. And flawless red and black eyeshadow with red lips. I jumped up and hugged Bella noticing our makeup was exactly the same.
She smirked "Told you I had it all planned out!"I laughed and Alice came back carrying two dress bags. She opened it and took out the most beautiful red dress. It was red, silkly, and long with a v neck neckline and a cross in the back with an onyx gemstone in the middle of the cross. I took out mine and went into her bathroom changing into it. I looked at myself adjusting it until I think it looked perfect. I stepped out and Bella smiled "You look better than me." She pouted and I shook my head "No you look flawless." She smiled "Thank you." I looked around for Alice and she came in wearing this red elf outfit. She did a twirl and gave a small curtsy.
"Oh no need to say a thing I know I look hot!" she said cockily. Rosalie came in the same outfit looking absolutely breathtaking "I know we both do!" she said clapping her hands.
It was a red skirt that had white glitter on it with a long sleeved red shirt and a white vest with red sequins with of course an elf hat.
They did their tap dance for us and we showed them our song from Anastasia. Afterwards we were getting ready to go up to the school
They grabbed four black trench coats and Alice passed us the same thing. Bella handed me some diamond teardrop earrings and a matching necklace as she did the same. We both put on sunglasses and she sprayed my hair handing me these beautiful white heels with crystals on them. We walked downstairs and out the door and Bella's mom was on her way out the door. We slipped past her and she eyed us suspiciously. We got into her black Porsche and drove to the school it was only 3:00 o'clock. Wow getting ready takes a long time. We got there in a jiffy!
Wait did I just say jiffy?
We got out and walked inside.
Good thing we all had the same homeroom.
We opened the door and walked inside but the teacher stopped us
"Ladies coats are not allowed in my class." Bella turned around
"I don't think I should take this off sir." She said lowly.
He frowned "Why is that?" Alice and her walked up to the front and turned to face him blocking anyone's view of there faces or outfits. They opened there coats and he gasped his eyes widening
"I see, just keep it on but the sunglasses come off." We nodded and took off the sunglasses. Everyone was still staring and a couple people whispered loudly "Maybe there naked." Tyler said and I gasped loudly "I am not naked!" I shouted and the everyone turned to look at me. I blushed and turned to Edward with pleading eyes. He nodded but he didn't even open his mouth before Mike stepped in "Tyler!" he said sternly "That was a very unnecessary comment, so now you must apologize." Tyler shrunk back "Sorry Jessica!" he said softly, I nodded and jumped up as the bell rang signaling the end of school. We walked through the halls egtting strange looks but I just ignored it. Bella ran to Edward and they just held hands looking at each other. I could see clearly that they were in love. Emmett came over and tried to untie her coat but she smacked him and said
"Bad Emmy bear!" she scowled and he glared walking away. They kissed but soon were forced to be parted by Alice and I sighed wishing I was in love.
She came back and we continued walkng until we came to a dark room on the end of the hall. We stepped inside following a small light to a staircase. We walked up the stairs and realized we were backstage. We went to Ms. Deed and showed her the costumes.
She squealed excitedly "Alice you made these?" Alice nodded proudly "They are amazing the onyx is a great touch to the red." She gushed "Yeah I thought so too! I'm so glad you like them and we even have striped socks." They walked away talking about fashion and I sighed.
Bella and I checked our outfits and our hair and just practiced a little more. We did some exercises "Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do!" we laughed and started skipping in a circle singing the Sound of Music. We stopped to see a whole bunch of people looking at us probably wondering why we were skipping when we looked like we just jumped out of The Matrix. We watched other people perform for dress rehearsal and finally it was time for the show to start. People were starting to fill in the seats and all of our school was out there. Alice and Rose were up first. They removed they're trench coats and went on stage as Ms. Deed introduced them in front of the curtain.
"Hello L.A. High ad Welcome to our 7th annual winter talent show. First I want to mention the beautiful day it was. It may be chilly but that's what winters about.
Up first is Alice Brandon and Rosalie Hale." She clapped and walked backstage.
The curtain rose and revealed them.
They were bouncing and Rose grabbing Alice's hand and they became to dance. Fake snow began to fall on them.
You better
Watch out!
You better
Not pout!
They finished in the splits smiling brightly. They got up curtsyed and waved running rest of the performances passed quickly and I started to shake thinking of what it would be like.
~Day Dream~
"I don't think I can do it Bella." Jessica cringed down scared as she peeked out into the crowd.
I smiled and looked at Jessica
"I'm sure you'll be fine Jessica come on!"
I pulled her from the wings and we walked on stage looking into the audience.
I gave a little wave and Jessica gave a little wave.
I could see through the blinding lights Edward, and Alice with Emmett waving in the front row.
We sat down on our stools and I threw my arm over her shoulders as we swayed to the opening music
She started humming slightly and we both
She was shaking slightly and she looked at me and I nodded to her getting up and grabbing our microphones.
Jessica started to sing but puked on the stage instead.
End of Daydream
I shuddered as Ms. Deed walked onstage
"Up next are too astoundingly talented young ladies singing
Once Upon A December. I give you Bella Swan and Jessica Morris" the lights dimmed and I shook.
"Just like we practiced." She whispered before taking off her trench coat and walking onstage slowly. As she went she picked up a white flower holding it to her chest swaying to the intro music. I walked out grabbing her hand and ignoring the people.
She grabbed her microphone and held her hand out feeling the fake snow.
Dancing Bears,
Painted Wings,
She sung softly pulling me towards her as she handed me a microphone.
Things I almost remember.
And a song someone sings,
Once upon a December.
I sung just as softly.
Someone holds me safe and warm.
We sung together I pulled her in for a hug.
Horses prance through a silver storm.
I spun out pulling away and ran to the other side of the stage.
She ran after me and grabbed one of my hands and we both spun around
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory....
She sunk to the floor and I could see the false tears fill her eyes as she reached out to me as I walked away.
Then the instrumental pasrt started and we both she held hands swaying.
Someone holds me safe and warm.
Horses prance through a silver storm.
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory...
I walked away singing softly and reached out to her hesitating to come back to her.
I looked into the audience pleadingly.
She got up the tears pooling down her cheeks as she sung out loudly almost angrily reaching out one hand to the audience one hand on her heart.
Far away, long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart
Used to know,
Things it yearns to remember...
She finished signing her long note and sank to the ground crying as I walked back to her sitting next to her.
I started to sing softly then growing louder.
And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a December
I wrapped my arms around her and we both cried into each others arms.
Then the clapping started, we both got up wiping our tears and she hugged me tightly "You were brilliant." She whispered and I smiled "You were too." We pulled away and turned to the audience bowing and Bella caught a bouquet of white roses and blew a kiss to Edward who whistled loudly along with Emmett. I smiled and a pink rose was thrown at me. I caught it and hugged it my chest smelling it. We walked off the stage to a Ms. Deed in tears "That was beautiful!" she sobbed pulling us in for a hug.I hugged her tightly and she pulled away "Well go say hi to your families." She shooed us and we walked over to Alice and Rose. They shouted in unison "That was amazing!" they threw roses at us and I laughed.
We all linked arms and walked out into the school hallways. We were congratulated and given a few more roses. Bella had now been showered in roses and more. Edward walked up behind Bella "Guess who?" he said laughing "Um Mike, nope, Um Ed, no, Darn what was that guys name?" she said playfully turning around and he pouted "Ouch that hurt!" he fake sobbed and she kissed his nose "Aw don't be sad."
I walked backwards but Edward caught my arm handing me a bouquet of red roses "You were wonderful." He said smiling. I smiled too "Thank you lover boy now go back to you're Juliet." He grinned and went back to Bella. Someone tapped me on the shoulder and I turned around holding my pink rose tightly. Mike was grinning at me and my breath hitched "Hi, Mike!" I said softly "You got my rose!" he said pointing to my special pink one. I frowned looking down at the note attached sure enough it said 'I hope you like this Rose as much as I like it' ~Mike. I smiled "Yep I caught it!" he smiled "Good because I was wondering if you would let me take you and the rose out to dinner tomorrow." I smiled brightly "Of course I would love to." I said excitedly "Good!" I gave him my number and he gave me his. I stood on my tip toes and kissed his cheek and he blushed "Bye Mike thanks for the rose." I said softly walking away.
This could be the beginning for me but I had a bad feeling about something else…
YAY! I liked that one I thought the talent show was a good touch! I hope you guys liked it!
That was a long one too.
Sorry it's been so late I just didn't have enough motivation but I don't care because I love to write so I said What the hey I only got two reviews but that's better than none, right?
