Stephenie Meyer owns most.

APOV:

I jumped into Meg's car with Alice and Rosalie in tow. Meg put on Girls Just Wanna Have Fun as we sang along. Alice and Rosalie just kept giving each other looks. I laughed and turned to them, "Calm down you two we are going to Seth's house". Just then we pulled into his driveway.

He lived in the biggest house in the county it was a beautiful white mansion that remind me of the houses on Cribs. When we stopped in his driveway we were greeted by Marlene, Seth's mom. "Ladies welcome and come in lots of work to do". We followed her in and went downstairs to her personal salon. Alice jumped up and down.

Meg leaned over and whispered in Rosalie's ear, "They have four boys so she likes to spoil us". Rosalie nodded taking in that she was going to have her own hair stylist and make up artist. They quickly went to work and Marlene stayed with us to participate in the gossip. I really did feel bad for her that she didn't have any daughters, she would have been great. Rosalie and Alice told her all about Emmett and Jasper and what they were wearing to the dance. Marlene turned to me.

"Addie, my dear you need to spill. I want to hear what you are wearing and who you are going with", I was trying to sit as still as possible while someone painted my nails and another person pulled at my hair. I sighed.

"I'm wearing a light yellow empire-waist ball gown with a little silver embellishment below the bust. I don't have a date, I am going by myself." Alice giggled and Marlene looked at her.

"Marlene don't listen to her, she is practically going with my brother, Edward." Marlene looked at me and smiled, "and what does Edward look like?"

"He is tall and has light skin, with the cutest untidy bronze hair. He is very sweet and kind and has done a lot for me as of late, but he is not my date.' I shook my head at the girls.

"We will see", Alice said as my phone vibrated.

"Speak of the devil and he shall ring. Hi Edward how are you?" I tried to keep my eyes averted from the rest of the giggling girls.

"I'm actually very happy you took my sisters away so I don't have to hear them getting ready." he chucked.

"My pleasure, did you need something else?" He hesitated before responding and I could hear Jasper and Em edging him on in the background.

"Well, I was wondering if I could pick you up for the dance. I just thought it would save me from having to ride with my family and also from going be myself. Also, I thought I could help you set up last minute things."

I tried to hide my smile, "That would be very nice, pick me up around 6?"

"Absolutely, see you then Addie."

"Goodbye Edward." I hung up the phone and saw that all eyes were on me. "What?"

"Edward needed to ask you what?"

"He just wanted to know if I would like a ride that is all." All the girls started to holler and I blushed.

I was frantically running around my house looking for my shoes. I heard the doorbell ring, "Mom! Please help I can't find my shoes." I heard a giggle and saw Rylinn shuffling past in my shoes for tonight. I heard my father greet Edward at the door. I grabbed my sister and twirled her around. "I got you!" I threw her down on the bed and began to tickle her until she hollered to stop. I put on my shoes and looked in the mirror.

"Addie you look like a princess", I leaned down and kissed my sister on the cheek. I felt like a princess my hair was pulled up halfway the top was teased to make it look a little higher. My hair was loosely curled the rest of the way down. I checked my dress and my shoes and walked down the stairs to greet my prince charming.

Edward was waiting at the bottom of the stairs in the outfit I had picked out. He looked amazing. I stopped breathing when I saw him. I blinked a few times before he chuckled and I took a small breath in. "Addie you look amazing", he took my hand and kissed it. I tried hard not to blush. He took his hand from behind his back and hand me a bouquet of flowers made up mostly of orchids.

"Edward would you mind getting your picture taken with Addie?", like anyone was going to say no to the principle of the school.

"Of course not Mrs. Drakes, would you please take some with this camera as well? Esme and Carlisle would be upset if they did not have a copy as well." Edward handed my mother his digital camera. We stood with smiles on our face for five minutes before I had enough.

"Ok guys, the point of leaving early was to set up", I kissed my parents goodbye and headed to Edward's car. In my driveway was a shiny black Koenigsegg CCX (please look up this car it is the only thing that Edward should be driving its hot!) I was in shock. "Edward where is your car?"

"This is my car", he looked at me and chuckled. I couldn't wipe the look off my face.

"Edward, this is car is more than twice the amount of my house" I looked up at him and he looked at me confused. "I have an older brother, I know a lot about cars."

He chuckled and held the door open for me, "We can stand outside and talk about the car some more or you can get in and we can go to the dance. Your call."

I sighed and got into a car and tried not to touch anything for fear I would break it. We made it to the old barn in no time at all. He opened the door and held out a hand to help me out. When I was fully out he pulled on my hand so I turned around. His eyes were practically black, great now I'm hallucinating. "Just so you know, you are going to be the most beautiful girl here tonight", he tucked a piece of hair behind my ear.

I turned my head to hide my blush, "Thank you but don't say that to Alice". I walked in and looked at the work we had done earlier that day. The white lights were already lit making it look like stars were dancing above you. I sighed at Edward, "We should go around lighting the candles now before everyone gets here". I went one way and he went the other. The DJ was playing classical music and I was humming along. I just lit the last candle when I turned around and was inches from Edward. I was about to lean in when I heard foot steps and saw people coming in and looking around.

"We should get a table and sit down, how about that one over there? I think everyone will fit." I walked over and set my stuff down. I was ready to have a panic attack, I almost kissed Edward. I can't do this to myself or to him. I felt arms around my waist and turned around to see a very attractive Aaron. "Oh Aaron you look amazing!"

"Well I see I am not the prettiest girl here you ladies took that crown", he laughed staring at Meg, Rose, and Alice who had just walked in. Everyone sat at our table as we began the dinner portion. I tried not to make eye contact with Edward; I was having an internal battle with what I wanted and was trying not to hyperventilate. I excused myself from the table to go make sure everything was set up for our dance.

The rest of the dinner portion, I walked around greeting people and telling everyone who was participating in the dance to be ready by 8. When I made it back to our table, we had five minutes. I looked at everyone, "Guys we should go back and get ready". I was standing there shaking out my hands and rolling my head back and forth when Edward went to talk to me. Seth grabbed him by the shoulder, "I would wait until after the dance, she is getting in her zone". I glared at him, but knew he was right.

We walked out as a group; I turned to Edward and stared into his eyes. I could not tell you how the dance went or if everyone liked it. I was so engulfed in his stare. He had so many looks on his face confusion, compassion, hurt, and hope. I just wanted him to hold me and to tell me everything was going to be okay. The song ended and everyone clapped. I went to talk to him but got bombarded by Seth and Meg with hugs.

"It was great Addie!", "Everyone loved it!" "You look almost as beautiful as the day I first met you", I turned around to see Tommy staring at me. Everyone backed away from us. I just stared at him. "Addie, I know we have a lot to work out and I'm willing to try if you are." He stared into my eyes; I looked away with tears in my eyes. "How about a dance?"

"I will save you a dance", I started to walk away and saw Edward in the corner, I couldn't handle that right now. I walked into the girls' bathroom and took a deep breath as I held the corner of the sink.

Flashback:

We were running full speed back to my house, I was in the lead. I round the corner and saw the porch and ran up the steps. "Ha I win!" I sat down and laughed.

"Addie you always win" Tommy was laughing and trying to breath again, "I think you are the fittest, healthiest 15 year old in the world". I bit my lip.

"Tommy, I need to tell you something", I got up and walked to the other side of the porch, "I have Wegener's granulomatosis, and it's a really rare blood disease. My body is fighting against itself. It is in my lungs but I'm getting treatment and should be in recession soon."

Tommy was standing beside me, "So you are going to beat it?" I smiled and nodded. Tommy hugged me.

6 months later

"Addie, if you have it again, I just don't think I can go through it all over again. The transfusions and pills, I mean I just don't know if I'm strong enough."

I opened my eyes, remembering that after I was in recession again, he told me it was a mistake and to forgive him. I told him I needed time and then his family moved. He didn't know I was sick again When I found out I was, I decided I would never date anyone until I was completely better. I couldn't put someone through that again, but Edward was different. I sighed, could I really bring him into this? I decided to forget it all and go live my life. That was my mission, to live.

EPOV:

Addie walked out of the bathroom, I just watched her. I didn't know what to do. She walked over to her friends and started dancing. I watched her dance around and scream the lyrics laughing. As soon as a slow song came on she grabbed Aaron and started dancing with him. I watched as every slow song that came on she danced with Aaron, Seth or Allen. I also watched as every time on came on Tommy tried to get closer to her. I smiled knowing she was avoiding him.

"Edward, you need to ask her to dance", Alice looked at me, "There has to be what? Two more slow songs."

"I know, I will go now", I started walking toward her as she was standing by the DJ booth. She was asking him to play a song. He nodded and said it would be next she smiled. I stopped her before she went back towards her friends, "Addie, would you like to dance the next slow song?" I smiled at her. She bit her lip.

"Edward, I can't I promised to dance with Tommy", she looked at me like she wanted to say more but the song was coming on and she went to Tommy who smiled. My heart sank.

As high as the moon
So high were my spirits
When you sang out my name

He smiled and spun her around. She looked into his eyes and they started to dance across the floor.

And coming from you
It was enough just to hear it
Oh, it rang like the bells did today

But even the sturdiest ground
Can shift and can tremble and let us fall down…

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It's lucky I'm clever
Cause if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heard.

She stopped dancing and looked into his eyes. "Listen, to the words Tommy". She was standing in front of him.

But I won't let melancholy
Play me for a fool
Oh, no I'm on my way somewhere new

And as far as your lack of something to say
Well, to tell me goodbye there was no better way

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It's lucky I'm clever
Cause if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heard

She sang along at the end. Keep eye contact with him the entire time. She looked like she was about to cry.

So don't keep me up till the dawn
With words that'll keep leading me on
I know much better than to wait for an answer from you

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It's lucky I'm clever
Cause if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heard

At the end of the song, she dropped his hands and turned around to walk outside. I looked at Alice who was shocked and I looked around to see everyone with the same expression. She just told him that it was over. Although inside I was elated, I tried to remember that didn't mean she wanted me. I thought for a second and Alice looked at me. Edward they are going to play one more slow song, you have to make your move. I knew she was right. I walked over to the DJ and request the perfect song for the last dance. He said, he would play it after the next two.

I waited as patiently as I could. When I heard Low come to a close, I looked around for Addie but I couldn't find her. The bells and piano started to play as the song as my face dropped, I couldn't see her. "Can I have the last dance?" I turned around to see a small smile on her face.

"Of course", I grabbed her hand and lead her to the middle of the dance floor. I spun her around and held her close.

A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

"You know this is perfect right?" she looked at me with a serious look in her face. I gave her a puzzled expression, I knew why it was perfect for me, but didn't think it would be the same reason. "I shared the first and last dance with the most amazing gentleman hear tonight".

I chuckled and looked deep into her eyes, "I don't think that is true what about Aaron?"

She laughed, "He will get over it". By this time we had stopped dance and were staring into each others eyes.

We're so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far

I reached down and gently touched my lips to hers. I wasn't ready for what happened though. Images of Bella and I flashed through my head like a very quick picture show the last being of her laying in the hospital bed saying goodbye. Addie pulled away from me quickly. She looked into my eyes with a scared look on her face and turned away. I couldn't move.

There you have it! I hope it was worth the wait. Don't worry more drama is going to happen at the after party. Also, I don't like where I was headed next so I'm going to change it. If you have any suggestions, now is the time to make them.
