Chapter 20 karaoke night!!! Part 2
I was changing my clothes after my dance session when my phone rang.
'All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip, everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me, follow me
Show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor
Just like a circus'
I laughed as I recognized the ring tone. I grabbed my phone then walked out of the theater to the parking lot.
"What is it, Quinn?" I asked while laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" I didn't answer so she continued "Anyway, are you guys on your way at the karaoke bar?" she asked impatiently. I rolled my eyes while answering.
"No, the bell just rang and I'm waiting for the others to come. Relax, okay. So what if we're a couple of minutes late? It's not like it will be the end of the world, right?" sarcasm dripping in my voice.
There was silence in the other line,
"Quinn?" I asked
"Oh…um, just hurry up!!! I have a special surprise for you guys!!!" she squealed on the other line. I looked at my phone like it was possessed.
"Hey, are the adults with you?" I asked, hopeful.
"Nope! Zon's on her way to Chicago to help some hospitals and Carlisle and Esme wanted some 'alone time'" Damn.
"Oh…" was all I said.
"Whatever. Now hurry up!" she yelled then hung up the phone. Sheesh! I think I'm going to be deaf if that's even possible. I rubbed my ear in irritation.
As I walked towards our cars, Alice, while dragging a pissed Rosalie, came out of the school entrance screaming,
"BELLA!!! BELLA!!! Come on, we need to hurry!! It's going to be so great…"she dragged me to rose's convertible and the three of us got in. Alice drove out of the parking lot, not even bothering on waiting for the others.
"Okay, Alice I know you're hyper and everything, but let's not get too excited, we're just going to sing for crying out loud!!!" Rosalie said in a frustrated tone.
"oh…we'll see" Alice replied with a devilish grin.
Rose and I looked at each other, then back at Alice with suspicious stares.
The drive on the way to bar was short, so in no time, we were parked on the driveway of the karaoke bar called 'the Dutch'. It's where my siblings and I usually hangs out and it perfectly gives us less human interactions. The manager always gives us the best accommodations in just the flick of our hand and a little cash.
When the three of us walked in, all eyes are on us. Alice was jumping for joy while Rosalie and I smirked. The manger noticed our arrival and showed us our private booth. We opened the door to find Quinn and Gleb already singing and dancing on the little stage. I noticed two racks full of costumes and wigs with bright colors. Rosalie and I looked at each other again in horror.
We turned and glare at Quinn,
"NU UH!!! There is no way in hell that I'm going to wear something like that!" Rosalie pointed at the costume racks with a shaking finger.
For me, the horror is not about the costumes, it's about the punishments. You see, when Quinn plans on something, she tends to overboard. She turns a karaoke night into a silly singing contest with the best reward for the winners and worst punishments for the losers.
Quinn smiled at me innocently and wrapped her arms on my arm tugging me to the sofa.
"I swear Quinn; I am not joining this fun fest of yours if the punishments are so cruel like the one you held last year." I crossed my arms around against my chest.
"Relax bells, there's no punishments but there are great rewards…" my eyes widened in suspicion.
"Like?" I motioned my hand for her to continue.
"Later singing bee, let's wait for the boys first." I glared at her while she and Alice ransacked the costumes. Rosalie sat beside me and put her head on my shoulders,
"If the rewards are accommodating, maybe I'll try to win it, just not wear those ugly rags..." she spat. I patted her head in sympathy.
The door swung open as the boys entered the room. Rosalie ran towards Emmett's awaiting arms and wrapped her arms and legs around him while jasper kissed Alice on the cheek and my Greek god, walked over to my side and sat beside me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and nuzzled my neck with his nose. I giggled in response.
"hey" he said against my neck, his cool breath making my skin shiver.
"Hello" I wrapped my arms around his head and placed his lips onto mine.
I pulled away instantly making him pout. I laughed at his expression and kissed his nose lightly. When everyone is settled, Quinn and Alice went in front and cleared their throats together. I rolled my eyes at them as well as everyone else.
"Okay, tonight will be the annual, karaoke dance contest!!! Okay, so here is how it goes, we are going to pick a name in this jar for the first person to sing then whoever that person is, needs to pick his/her song in this other jar and whatever song it is, you need to make it look good even if it's a song for funerals." Quinn said enthusiastically.
"You can wear some costumes from the rack to make your performance more stunning. The funniest, greatest song-dance number will win and remember to have fun!!!" Alice exclaimed while jumping up and down.
I heard Emmett whispered on Gail
"Man, I thought Alice was worst, I didn't know someone could top that!" Gail and Drew broke out in to fits of laughter while I tried to cough to cover my giggles.
Quinn just ignored us and proceeded,
"okay so the first one is…." She dove her hand in the jar,
"Gleb and jasper!" Alice and Quinn shouted.
The two guys looked at each other in horror then gulped at the same time. All of us laughed and some encouraged them to the stage.
Jasper picked their song and showed it to Gleb. His eyes bulged out and his mouth hanged open while japer looked confused. Quinn picked the piece of paper and looked at it. She smirked at them. Quinn closed the curtain and we waited. After 3 seconds, the song started and a familiar intro played. The red curtain swung open and there standing from there backs on us, was jasper and Gleb wearing Blonde wigs and sparkling scarf's and ridiculous shades. Gleb turned around trying to be sexy and then sang the first stanza in a bad Britney spears voice.
Gleb:
Superstar
Where you from, hows it going?
I know you
Gotta clue, what you're doing?
You can play brand new to all the other chicks out here
But I know what you are, what you are, baby
He walked over to the center stage while swinging his hips. He pointed his finger in a girly way towards Edward, as he sang the last lines. I covered my mouth in total amazement and shock at my brother's antics.
Jasper:
Look at you
Gettin more than just re-up
Baby, you
Got all the puppets with their strings up
Fakin like a good one, but I call 'em like I see 'em
I know what you are, what you are, baby
Jasper then came over to the right side of the stage then pointed his finger at all of us then swayed his hips as he walked towards Gleb, then he put his elbow on Gleb's shoulder while singing.
The two of them sang both of the chorus while they swayed their hips from left to right.
Womanizer, Woman, Womanizer
You're a Womanizer, oh Womanizer oh
You're a Womanizer, baby
You you you are, You you you are
Womanizer, Womanizer, Womanizer (Womanizer)
Boy, don't try to front
Boy, don't try to front
I know just what you are
Boy, don't try to front
I know just what you are
You got me goin'
You're oh so charmin'
But I can do it
Womanizer
I know just what you are
Boy, don't try to front
I know just what you are
You say I'm crazy
I got your crazy
You're nothin' but a
Womanizer
When the chorus was done both of them slapped their butts then walked again in the opposite sides of the stage.
Gleb:
Daddy-O
You got the swagger of champion
He pointed to Drew who's laughing and almost rolling on the floor. Gleb wiggled his finger from side to side then came in front of Gail then pinched his cheeks and patted it lightly.
Too bad for you
You just cant find the right companion
I guess when you have one too many, makes it hard
It could be easy, who you are
Thats who you are, baby
Jasper:
Lollipop
Must mistake me, you're a sucker
To think that I
Would be a victim not another
Say it, play it how you wanna
But no way Im ever gonna fall for you, never you, baby
Jasper on the other hand, sat on Edward's lap then wrapped his arms around his neck. Everyone in the room was laughing and rolling on the floor. I clutched on my sides almost on the verge of tears if it was even possible.
Boy, don't try to front
Womanizer, Woman, Womanizer
You're a Womanizer, oh Womanizer oh
You're a Womanizer, baby
You you you are, You you you are
Womanizer, Womanizer, Womanizer
(Womanizer)
I know just what you are
Boy, don't try to front
I know just what you are
You got me goin'
You're oh so charmin'
But I can do it
Womanizer
After their song we gave them a standing ovation and a loud cheering and shouting courtesy of Emmett and Gleb. As we settle down, Gail picked the next singer/s. he reached his hand on the jar and the tension of room was really building. I bit my lip due to nervousness.
Then a huge smile came over Gleb's face.
"Quinn and Rosalie" Quinn clapped her hands enthusiastically while Rosalie sighed in defeat. Quinn picked their song and showed it to Rosalie.
"Not bad." Rosalie smirked. Quinn dragged Rosalie to the stage and closed the red curtain. In about 10 seconds or so, the song started and the red curtain opened. The song intro of 'umbrella' by rhianna, blasted out of the speakers and Rosalie and quinn came out holding two umbrellas; one black and the other, white. Quinn was wearing a black bikini top with white polka dots and a black petti skirt and white leather boots and white hat while Rosalie is wearing a black halter bikini top with the same skirt as Quinn with black boots and hat.
All of us in the room shouted and yelled as they both twirled their umbrellas and walked at either sides of the stage. At exactly the same time, they closed their umbrellas and used it as a rod. They danced around it then Rosalie started…
Rosalie:
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
They both swayed their hips to the beat while circling around their closed umbrellas.
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
Quinn did the Michael Jackson dance while singing. She threw her umbrella at the side and walked over to Gleb, whose eyes are about to pop out of its sockets. He gripped the side of the couch and sat still like a statue.
Quinn:
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because
As she sang the stanza, she straddled Gleb's lap and kissed the side of his lips. Quinn went over the stage and while hiding a smile. I looked over to Gleb, he looked like harassed by thousands of fan girls and there's a red lipstick tinted on his cheeks. We burst out laughing at him because he didn't attempt to move and he just sat there at the corner of the couch with twitching eyes and lips.
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
Quinn and Rosalie grabbed a chair of their own and twirl around it. They sat on it while spreading their legs which only made the room louder and Gleb's eyes wider. Quinn flashed a winning smile and a flying kiss at him while Rosalie winked at Emmett then threw her hat at Emmett's head.
You can run into my arms
Quinn stretched her hand towards Gleb while putting a dramatic face.
It's okay don't be alarmed
Come into me
Rosalie motioned a finger towards Emmett while smiling sexily. The girls sang the rest of the song together while dancing to the bet and doing 'the drop' move several times.
[Chorus]
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
They bowed down and flew kisses everywhere.
As the laughter and cheering died down, Rosalie picked the next person. She grinned at me evilly, my eyes widened in horror.
"Bella" she said while smiling coyly.
I took an unnecessary breathe and Edward kissed my cheek and whispered "you can do it love" I nodded at him.
I picked my song and gasped. I covered my mouth and tried to stifle a laugh. I shook my head and headed for the stage.
Edward's POV
As Bella walked into the stage, I saw Alice smirked. I tried to read her mind but she kept blocking me by singing the national anthem. I glared her direction and she stuck out her tongue at me. Stupid pixie. She sat beside me then whispered
"You might want to hold onto something hard." she smiled evilly and sat on jasper's lap. I heard a giggle behind the curtains. Well at least, Bella is having fun. I smiled. The lights became dim and after waiting, the music played. The music was quite familiar but I can't put a finger on it. Emmett and Gail laughed their booming laughs while the others just smiled. Emmett slaps his lap and tried to compose his face but failed.
The curtain is still closed but Bella started to sing.
(Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum)
What's wrong with me?
(Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum)
Why do I feel like this?
(Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum)
I'm going crazy now
(Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum)
The curtain flung open and Bella walked sexily towards center stage. I scanned her through my eyes from head to toe and well…she's very sexy. I started gripping the sides of the couch while looking at this goddess with my mouth hanged open. She's wearing a black dress that stops at her mid thigh with cuts at the right side, revealing her porcelain skin. She's wearing black leather shoes and jacket with black stockings. She also wore a black wig and blade earrings and black peculiar shades.
No more gas in the rear
Can't even get it started
Nothing heard, nothing said
Can't even speak about it
Out my life out my head
Don't want to think about it
Feels like I'm going insane
Yeah
She circled her head while singing and touching her body slowly.
It's a thief in the night
To come and grab you
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
It's too close for comfort
Bella reached her hand towards me then her fingers sexily twisted and pulled back to her chest. As she sang the last line of the stanza, for every word of it, she grunted sexily.
Put on your break lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
She tapped her forehead and shook her butt unconsciously.
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must faulter be wise
Your mind is in Disturbia
She pounded her first in the air and her eyes widened and she stretched her palm and put the back of her hand on her forehead.
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
She pointed her finger at me in a sly smile then winked before walking to the right side of the stage.
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
Your mind is in disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
She swung her head from side to side and stomped her feet together with the beat.
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
Put on your break lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must faulter be wise
Your mind is in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
Your mind is in disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
I gripped more of the couch hearing a shredding sound as Bella walked over to me and sat on my lap as she sang. She caressed my cheek and kissed me lightly on the lips. I unconsciously lick my lips, she saw what I did and bit her lower lip and her eyes glistened with desire.
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
She gripped my polo shirt and whispered the next lines.
Release me from this curse I'm in
Trying to remain tame
But I'm struggling
If you can go, go, go
I think I'm going to oh, oh, oh
All too soon for my liking, she let go of me immediately and walked back the stage.
Put on your break lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must faulter be wise
Your mind is in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
Your mind is in disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
She circled the stage with her famous sexy walk and stopped at the middle with her back behind us.
Disturbia
Disturbia…
She sang the last two words and pounded the hand holding her mic in the air. I was the first one to clap while giving her a standing ovation. Rosalie wolf whistled while the others teased me and her. We both flashed our winner smiles at them and took a seat at the sofa.
Bella's POV
Edward and I took a seat at the couch, I noticed that some pieces of the couch were shredded and the foam was sticking out. I raised an eyebrow at him while he grinned sheepishly. He snaked his arms around my waist and whispered
"I can't help myself, love. If I let go, I think your clothes would be the one shredded" I smirked at him.
"Oh, stop it you two! Come on Bella you need to pick!!!" Alice pulled me to the jars. I looked at her irritated.
"Alice, why don't you just tell us who is the next person?" I asked irritated.
"No way! It'll totally ruin the surprise if I just tell you and besides, it's more fun!!!" she handed me the jar and I picked a piece of paper. I opened it and smiled evilly.
"Oh this will totally be fun!" I rubbed my hands evilly like a mad scientist whispered my plan to Alice. I turned my attention to the others who are waiting impatiently.
"It's…."
