Chapter 14: MUSIC PROJECT

(Edward's POV)

Cole, Darren, Tristan, Bella and I were all laughing about something Lauren and Mike had done earlier in the day. Lauren had broken one of the heels of her shoes and fell into Mike, who happened to lose his balance and fall. He brought Lauren down with him into a huge puddle of muddy water. Lauren was screaming and crying about how her clothes were ruined and Mike was just standing there, dripping muddy water. We were laughing so hard when we saw them.

It was the day before our music class performance and we had just finished practicing the music for the last song. We were pretty sure that we would do well in the competition.

While we were laughing, Mr. Sharp said, "I hope all of you have finished your pieces because our performance is tomorrow. I expect all of you to be at the auditorium at 6:30 sharp for sound checks. The performance will begin at seven. Now, will each group send someone to select your place in the program."

"I'll go," I said and headed to the front of the room.

Mr. Sharp had a bowl with five pieces of paper in the bottom. "Okay. I will let each of you pick a slip of paper from the bowl. On the paper will be your groups place in the program." He passed the bowl around to the other students in front of his desk. When it got to me, there was only one slip left. I picked it up and looked at it. It had the number five written on it. This meant that we were the last group to perform.

I headed back to my group. "So, when do we perform?" Bella asked.

"We're last," I said, as I threw the slip on the table.

Bella's face seemed to drain of all color. "What's wrong, Bella?"

"Nothing," she said shaking her head. "I just don't like having to wait to do these type of things. I get extremely nervous."

"It'll be alright. Just focus on one thing and the nerves should go away. Don't worry about it right though. The concert isn't until tomorrow night," I said, trying to reassure her. She nodded and smiled up at me as the bell rang.

We walked out of the room and out of the building. We said goodbye to the others as they were heading towards the boy's dorm.

I took Bella's hand and walked back to her dorm to start our homework. When we got to her dorm, we went to her room and spread out on her bed to do our homework. We had been working for about thirty minutes when Bella put down her pre-cal binder. "I'm bored and I've already finished all of my work. Have you?" she asked, looking up at me with the cutest expression on her face.

I finished writing my last answer and closed my history binder. "Yes, I have," I said, throwing my binder on my school bag.

She smiled and sat up from her position on the bed and came over to sit next to me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed the top of her head. After a few minutes of silence, I turned her face to me and kissed her. She kissed me back as she snaked her arms around my neck and into my hair. I loved it when she did that. It felt so good. I wrapped my other arm around her and pulled her closer. It wasn't a full-on make-out type kiss. It was kind of sweet in a way.

All of a sudden we heard a huge bang as Alice came bursting through the door. Wow. My family has the best timing, I thought sarcastically.

"Yes, Alice?" I asked, slightly annoyed.

"The others and I were going out to dinner. Do you guys want to come?" she asked excitedly.

"Sure," Bella said with a sigh. I don't even know why Alice asks if we want to go on these things. She just forces us to go anyway.

"Okay. Be ready in thirty minutes," Alice called as she skipped out of the room. We sighed again as we got up.

"I guess I need to get ready," I said, going to gather my things.

I heard Bella sigh. "I guess so."

Once I had collected all of my things, I threw my bag over my shoulder and went back over to Bella, she was picking up her binders and setting them on her desk. I turned her around and gave her another kiss and said, "I'll be back soon." She nodded and smiled up at me. I smiled back and headed towards my dorm.

Thirty minutes later, I was sitting next to my Bella in Emmett's Jeep as we headed to dinner.

The next day (6:15 p.m.)

"Bella, we need to go," I said through Alice's door.

"I'm coming," Bella said. "Alice, I can put my own shoes on." I heard her say. I chuckled quietly.

About five minutes later, a very frazzled and sexy-looking Bella opened the door. My jaw dropped. She was wearing a black halter dress that flowed down her perfect body and stopped a few inches above her knee along with a black cowboy hat and black high-heeled boots that came up to her knees (all pics on profile). Her hair was flowing down her back in loose waves.

Alice appeared behind her and said with a snicker, "Close your mouth, lover boy."

I immediately shut my mouth as Bella giggled. She took my hand and pulled me out of the room. "Bye, Alice. See you there," she called as she closed the door behind us.

"You look beautiful," I finally said after I remembered how to form a coherent sentence. She blushed as we walked to the auditorium for our sound check.

When we got there, Cole, Darren and Tristan were already waiting for us on the stage, it was our turn.

When seven o'clock rolled around, the auditorium was packed with teachers and students. Mr. Sharp went on stage to welcome the school and introduce the first group.

Each group seemed to have a different genre of music that they stuck to. The first group seemed to be dedicated to rock music. The second group choose classical. The third choose jazz. And the fourth got a laugh and an unhappy look from Mr. Sharp with their rap music.

Then it was our turn. Mr. Sharp introduced us and we walked onto the stage and took our places. Bella went to her microphone at the front of the stage and picked up her guitar. I went to pick up my bass. Darren grabbed his fiddle. Tristan picked up his banjo and Cole went to his drum set.

I sent a few glares at some boys in the front row who were whistling when Bella walked onto the stage.

When everybody got quiet, Cole started to beat his drums and our first song started.

(Bella's POV)

I was taking deep breaths as Mr. Sharp introduced our group. When he called us on stage, I put on a smile and walked onto the stage. I heard some guys whistle when I walked on stage but I ignored them.

(#1) Cole started to beat on his drums and the first song began.

To state the obvious
I didn't get my perfect fantasy
I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy
That's fine you won't mind if I say
And by the way

When I got to the chorus, I felt all of my nerves melt away.

I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn.

After I finished the chorus for the first time, everyone started to clap to the beat.

There's no time for tears
I'm just sitting here planning my revenge
There's nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends.
And if you come around
Saying sorry to me
My daddy's gonna show you how sorry you'll be

I heard some laughter when I sang that last line.

'Cause I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn.

Tristan and Edward each had a small solo here and they both played very well.

And if you're missing me
You better keep it to yourself
'Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health

'Cause I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
In case you haven't heard

I got into the music and started to move to the beat of the song.

I really really hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn

Burn burn burn baby burn
Just another picture to burn
Baby burn

When the song ended, I took off my hat and threw it into the crowd. Everybody in the audience broke into a loud applause. We all smiled at the crowd.

As the crowd was applauding, we switched instruments; Edward to piano; Tristan to guitar; and Darren to guitar as well. I placed my guitar back on its stand and went back to the microphone.

(#2) Edward started off our second song with small piano solo. He smiled up at me as he played. I smiled back, knowing that he inspired this very song.

I've never been the kind that you'd call lucky
Always stumbling around in circles
But I must have stumbled into something
Look at me
Am I really alone with you

I was looking at Edward the whole time. He was looking at me as well, not ever missing a note.

I wake up feeling like my life's worth living
Can't recall when I last felt that way
Guess it must be all this love you're giving
Never knew never knew it could be like this
But I guess

Some hearts
They just get all the right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts
They just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes
Some hearts just get lucky, lucky sometimes

Now who'd have thought someone like you could love me
You're the last thing my heart expected
Who'd have thought I'd ever find somebody
Someone who, someone who makes me feel like this
Well I guess

I smiled as I sang the chorus.

Some hearts
They just get all the right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts,
They just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Apparently, the crowd was liking this song as well as they did the first. I thought that we were doing very well.

Even hearts like mine
Get lucky, lucky sometimes
Even hearts like mine

Oooooooooooh oh

I heard cheers when I hit the high notes. That gave my self-esteem a major boost.

Some hearts
They just get all the right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts,
They just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Some hearts
They just get all the right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts,
They just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

When the song ended, the crowd burst into applause, clapping and whistling as we all took a bow and headed backstage to wait with the other groups.

After a few minutes, Mr. Sharp came back onto the stage from his seat at the judges' table and said into the microphone, "Alright, ladies and gentlemen, we have our winners. And they are..." He paused for dramatic effect. "Edward Cullen, Cole Smith, Bella Swan, Tristan Thornton, and Darren West!"

Edward picked me up in his arms and spun me around. The others were cheering. We all came back onto the stage with smiles on our faces and took another bow. I could hear Alice, Emmett, Rosalie, and even Jasper cheering for us.

Then Edward turned to me all of a sudden and kissed me right in front of the entire student body. I heard many wolf-whistles and I blushed but I didn't pull away from Edward until Mr. Sharp cleared his throat behind us. Edward pulled away and said sorry but he didn't seem sorry at all. I know I wasn't.

After everyone had cleared out of the auditorium, Mr. Sharp told us that we would receive our prize on Monday during class. And with that he dismissed us.

Edward and I said goodnight to the others and headed back to my dorm where we told Alice we would meet them.

When we got there, we were congratulated many times but then I told everyone that I was exhausted and that I wanted to go to bed. They all, well... mostly Alice, started to complain that we needed to celebrate. I told them that we would celebrate tomorrow and they all agreed.

Then we all split up into couples. I had asked Edward if he wanted to stay over tonight and he had agreed immediately. Rosalie and Emmett had gone back to they boys' dorm and Alice and Jasper were in Alice's room.

When Edward and I were finally alone, he said to me as he put his pajamas on (which, much to my pleasure, only consisted of a pair of boxer shorts), "You were incredible tonight."

I blushed. "Why thank you. You were even better though," I said as I kissed his nose. He laughed.

Then he picked me up bridal style and walked over to the bed and set me down before he laid down next to me.

He reached over and turned off the lamp as I snuggled closer to his warm bare chest. He kissed the top and said, "Sleep well, love."

I breathed in his heavenly scent and softly said, "Good night, Edward," before I drifted off to sleep in my angel's arms.

A/N: Well... there you go. The music concert. Hope you enjoyed it.

Review, please!! I'm begging you!! I'm on my knees here!! I need at least 10 people before you get more.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTICE: I, being my fickle self, have changed my mind (again). My next fanfic will not be about bands. It will be about something else obviously. I'll tell you that when I actually start writing it (which I haven't). But I would like to thank everyone who sent me ideas for band names anyway. I probably start it when I finish my story, Horizon. But don't worry, I'm not going to abandon this story. I wouldn't even think about doing that.

Asta til next time,

Kitty/ Cat :)
