Secret Agent
Here I was sitting in an empty hotel room, bored out of my mind. The Cullen's had to go hunting and they thought it would be fun to do another family affair. So that left me staring at the phone willing it to do something. The phone didn't ring but something better happened, their was a knock on the door. I jumped up so fast that I almost tripped over the coffee table. I opened the door and their stood Crystal.
"Hey what are you doing here?" I asked.
"Just came to see what your doing." she said casually as she sat on the couch.
"Staring at the phone." I said honestly.
"Wow, that's pathetic." she teased.
"Oh and what have you been doing?" I asked.
"Staring at the door." she answered honestly as well.
"So much better." I said sarcastically.
"Hey at least mine has a better chance of doing something." she argued.
"They have the same chance; you know what actually I think the phone has a better chance." I said back.
"Ha Ha, this is just like old times, arguing over stupid ass shit." she said.
"I've missed this." I said.
"So have I, Hey where you okay during the party? You seemed a little on edge." she said.
"It was nothing." I said.
"Bella I've known you long enough to know that you're lying. What happened? Was it something I said? Oh my god I'm so sorry if I caused you and Edward any problems." she said in practically one breathe.
"No, no it wasn't anything you did, but technically you did cause a little trouble." I said.
"What, what did I do?" she asked slightly panicked.
"Well I forgot to tell Edward about my past relationships." I said.
"And I let the cat out of the bag. Shitt I'm so sorry." she said.
"It's alright, I should have told him a long time ago, but he didn't take it that bad." I said.
"Good, but was that what was making you uncomfortable at the party?" she asked.
"No, You know that feeling, when you now someones looking at you but you don't know who." I said.
"Ya." she said.
"I had that feeling for a good part of the night. I don't know if I was just being paranoid, but it kind of freaked me out." I said.
"Okay, well let's make a list of people that would watch you." she said as she went to grab a sheet of paper. "Who comes to mind?" she asked.
"Ummm… James, Victoria, one of my ex's maybe," I said.
"Can you think of anyone else?" she asked.
"Not of the top of my head." I said.
"Ok, were going to go secret agent, and find out if there watching you." she said excitedly.
"What do you mean by secret agent?" I said slightly nervous because Crystal had a tendency of going over board with her ideas.
"You know the whole thing, the outfits, codenames, walkie talkies, hats, and a cool get away car." she said.
"I don't really think we need any of that." I said.
"Well I don't care if we need it, I want it." she said.
"Alright what ever you say." I said, it was better not to argue with her when she got in her project modes.
"Ohhh, I love this song, come dance with me." she said as she pulled me up. The song was 'Ready for Love' by Cascada. Crystal was singing along at the top of her lungs.
You took a piece of my heart
I never thought that this could fall apart
You said you fell in loveAnd this was more than I had ever been afraid of
Another lifeAnother happy ending cuts like knife
Another place, another timeAnother hand to touch, another sun to shine
We weren't really dancing but jumping around, spinning, all that stuff. It was more of just us goofing around. It was fun until she wanted me to sing along to it.
"I' don't think so." I said as she spinned me.
"Why not?" she asked.
"Because I can't sing." I said.
"Liar, come on please." she said, added with the puppy dog pout. She knew I couldn't say no to the puppy dog pout.
"Ughhh, I hate you. Ok I'll do it but I won't do it to a fast song. Fast songs just get to confusing when you singing." I said.
"Okay, slow song it is." she said as she put 'My Declaration' by Eliza Bennett on softly.
I softly sang along to the words, I knew this song by heart so it was easy.
"Louder please." she said. I reluctantly raised my voice.
No I can't keep hiding, no I can't keep hiding, no I can't keep running away
So I'm gonna be stronger, and I'm gonna be better made, and I'm gonna give everything,
Just to bring me back I'm gonna be stronger, I'm gonna be understood, and I'm gonna give everything
Just to bring me back again!
I just sang that part, when I heard something drop from behind me. I reluctantly turned around, and there they were all the Cullen's just staring at me.
"Bella, that was amazing." Alice said once she got over the shock.
"Ummm, thanks." I said while I was blushing like crazy.
"Why haven't you sung for us before, sweetie?" Esme asked.
"I… uh… It never came up I guess." I said still embarrassed.
"Bella, there's no need to be embarrassed, you were amazing." said Jasper.
"You were better than amazing," whispered Edward into my ear.
"I'm gonna head out. Have a nice night everyone, Bella I'll call you tomorrow." Crystal said as she walked out the door.
"How was the hunting trip?" I asked trying to get the conversation off me.
"It was good, but I missed you too much." Edward said as he pulled me in for a kiss. The kiss lasted longer than I thought, and our family didn't really like being ignored by us, because Emmet came and pulled us apart.
"Give it a rest, you've been apart for a couple of hours, and your acting like it's been years." teased Emmet.
"Emmet, you act the same way when Rosalie goes away. So stop making fun of them for it." said Carlisle.
We spent most of the night just like this. All together, joking around, and enjoying each other's company. We only stopped because I fell asleep.
How was it?
