Twi-Pairing Craze!
This is the last chapter of TPC. Quite frankly, the amount of reviews has been dismal, but no matter, I do have another fic coming. Also, this is only the first instalment, but think of it as the finale of Season 1. This means there will indeed be more.
So, on this last chap, ExB, songfic. That unfinished Jasper/Emmett will have to wait. there was a part in the song that was repeated, so I just used it once.
I do not own the song, Stay With Me Bright Eyes by Something With Numbers, nor the characters involved. No copyright infringement is intended to either.
TPC------------------------------------Edward/Bella------------------------------------TPC
Edward's Point of View.
The moonlight melted through Bella's window, settling on her translucent cheeks. It was long past her curfew that Charlie had allowed, but little did he know, I still lurked around. Bella had been keepin up her charade for Charlie for some time, and it amused me to see such concentration. She typed and typed on her slightly dusty laptop, she was focused between a Jacksonville radio station on the, an email from her mother and me, teasing with her deliciously soft chocolate locks. It was the former that distracted Charlie from checking up on her, and had he known I was here, there would be an uproar.
She had been searching for this station because Phil was being interviewed, and Renee had begged for her to listen.
Crease lines crossed her angelic forehead again and again in frustration. She looked at me with pleading eyes, in her time of impatience. Her mother had told her the interview was airing at 9pm, but it was long past then.
I sauntered calmly over to the partially foggy window, and stared out at the stars barely visible over towering trees. The radio was delaying the sports, which frustrated Bella. Something frustrated her about not being able to please others.
After constant pings of email received, and advertisements, came a song. A song, from a band in Australia. That's a long way for one song, I thought. Their perpetual delay was just upsetting Bella. Her eyes read that she was just plain fed up, and she looked weary enough to collapse onto the laptop. The announcer had coughed and spluttered away from the microphone, and proceeded on his announcement.
"To all of the listeners out there, we apologise, but we cannot air the Sports segment of out show due to weather problems." Ah, that's what Renee seemed so gloomy about. "We will continue to air songs until the storm is over. Again, we're sorry, but enjoy the songs." Bella sighed. She was mildly content, but hung around for one last email before retiring.
I lay back on her satin pillows and stretched my arm around her dainty waist. Her fingers continued to tap along, and the song was beginning to play. Stay With Me Bright Eyes by Something With Numbers, a new addition for the Australian band, the radio continued. I was fairly surprised that Bella had kept the music going, this is a bit far from her tastes. She stifled a yawn, and I heard Charlie's thoughts shuffle in...he had just finished brushing his teeth, and was about to go to sleep. I heard his light click on and off, as I began to listen to the song.
If you were the melody, then I would be the song;
Together we would make everybody sing along,
Whistling and a singing through the hall and through the streets
Everybody's dancing and there moving to the beat.
Her fingers continued to run over the letters, swiftly scribing a message to her ineffable mother. Her facial expressions were placid, mixed with her effortless innocence. I pondered this tune had briefly mention something reminding me of mine and Bella's relationship. I smiled in reminiscence, and immersed myself in the song.
Baby, don't go now
Don't go now
Don't go now
'Cause i need you right here.
I'll give away anything and everything for this.
If I was a shadow, then you would be the sun,
Together we would always because you the only one.
She had finished typing her message, but I placed a hand over the computer, indicating I wanted to finish the song, advancing into the second verse. She wriggled into the gap I left by my arm, her warm pulse radiating into my forearms from her neck. I inhaled deeply, to catch her sweet, intoxicating scent, and continued my reverie.
If I was a poem then you would be the pain,
Together we would need each other like a rose needs rain.
Don't go now
Don't go now
Don't go now
'Cause i need you right here
I'll give away anything and everything for this.
Beautiful, timeless memories played in my mind like a video. Bella cocked her head, wondering what I was thinking. I placed a finger delicately over her lips, and my lips on her forehead.
"Just listen, love. This makes me think of you."
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling,
And never go,
I'll never get over you.
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling,
and never go,
I'll never get over you.
She blushed. She was always modest when thinking of relationships, but this was true. Each time she slept, I felt like she could be leaving forever. This brought upon a sense of gratitude, purely for Bella's existence. She yawned again, and fidgeted to make herself more comfortable. Her breathing had slowed down, and her eyes continued to flutter.
If I was the magic, then you would be the trick;
Together we will challenge what everybody thinks
If I was the villain then I would steal your heart,
I would take it everywhere with me in a jar.
I laughed at the coincidence of the very lyrics, almost mirroring our times together. I cherished the similar moments that were echoed in the song, and seeing Bella blush sent my heart flying.
Baby,
Don't go now
Don't go now
Don't go now
'Cause i need you right here,
I'll give away anything and everything for this
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling,
And never go
I'll never get over you.
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling
And never go
I'll never get over you.
Now nearing the end of the song, Bella yawned. I knew she was tired, but I wanted to hear the rest of the song. She rolled over, but I kept my arm where it was. Her scent ballooned within the room, enhancing the very mood.
Feels like I'm drowning in the rain,
And If I shout aloud,
You won't even hear me now.
Won't even hear me!
As of then, I was unsettled. Thoughts of Jacob Black, and the dark time I had left her had filled me with remorse. Bella, in her last burst of conciousness, stirred, and cradled herself on my side, relieving me.
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling;
And never go,
I'll never get over you.
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling;
And never go,
I'll never get over you.
Bella had jest begun to doze off, letting her mind rest in dreams. I felt at peace with myself, so grateful of what I loved. I wished for eternity to spend with the one I love, and I would truly commit to it. This song, now finished, had inspired me. I peered down at my quiescent love, now sleeping. This sent me into a sort of dream, another reverie. Her bright eyes and light pulse would comfort me.
I reached down to her smooth forehead, planting a soft kiss, smooting back her delicate hair. I was reminiscing over the enchanting chorus. I sung the tuneful words to her, almost inaudibly, but I meant every one of those words...
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling;
And never go,
I'll never get over you.
Stay with me bright eyes, stay with me darling;
And never go,
I'll never get over you.
